“This was my first time here the food was excellent and the service was pretty good, should have gotten more attention. When making the reservation I mentioned that it was for a birthday celebration. We had to ask again for that and they said they were gonna give us shots but instead gave us mochi and ice cream“

“Was a walk-in on a Saturday night at eight, but this place is huge and we were seated within twenty mins! Noise levels on the lower end, even when the place was busy!
Our order was quickly taken by our friendly server, Jeevan, which included: Ginger Sour String Beans (nice and garlicy), Chicken Lo Mein, Veggie Fried Rice, Cumin Fries, Dry Pot Style (Chicken, and Tofu). Food was in-line with expectations and hit all the right spots! I wish it was a little spicy, and their 10/10 spice level is not that spicy! Excellent Sichuan food though in the UWS neighborhood. Menu slightly on the expensive side;
Will definitely be frequenting this place for their super quick service, and good food!
Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly 😎“

“We have been coming to Land Of Plenty for years. The food is always fresh, with the characteristics dishes of Szechuan cuisine. Service is attentive and efficient, and the owner is kind. My favorites are Dan Dan noodles, soup dumplings and braised fish fillet with peppercorn.“

“Pig Heaven will always be one of my favorite places to eat in NYC. I am hopeful that more people start going back to eat here. Even with Nancy Lee being gone the food is still amazing. I try something new here each time I go, and am never disappointed. The staff is amazing, friendly, and are extremely helpful. The portion sizes are very large, so they match the price you’re paying as well. Give it a try!!“

“I am obsessed with sichuan food, and found this place to be delicious! I was dining solo, so I was only able to try one dish, but the dry pot chicken was phenomenal. Juicy chicken, tasty vegetables, and strong-but-not-overwhelming spice. You will not regret a visit here.“

“I had an amazing experience at Chi! As someone who frequently travels to China for business, I can confidently say the food here is incredibly authentic, delicious, and of high quality. Every dish was a delight, bursting with flavor and prepared with care. The service was equally impressive—friendly, attentive, and remarkably quick. I highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for a true taste of China! Will definitely be back on my next trip!“

“Spicy Moon in West Village is a fantastic spot for anyone who enjoys bold, flavorful Chinese cuisine — especially Sichuan-style dishes. The restaurant is fully vegan, but you wouldn’t miss the meat at all thanks to the rich spices and textures. The atmosphere is casual yet stylish, and service is quick and friendly. I tried a few dishes like the dan dan noodles and mapo tofu, and both were incredibly satisfying with the perfect amount of heat. A great choice for plant-based eaters or anyone looking to explore modern Chinese flavors in NYC.“

“Rating: 8/10
Date Last Visited: 9/7/2025
We ordered the String Beans ($15), Lotus Root ($15), Braised Pork in Mao’s Style ($20), Chongqing Style Fried Chicken ($20), Fish ($22), Cabbage ($14), Scallion Pancake (free from leaving a review), Braised Spare Ribs ($22), and Eggplant ($15). All the meat entrees were delicious - the braised pork was fatty and savory, the fried chicken was fried well, the fish was flavored well from the soup, and the spare ribs had great texture and taste. The veggies were also solid - my favorite being the eggplant and cabbage. Even though they’re simple, they’re cooked so well and taste amazing. They let you spin a wheel for a free appetizer if you leave a review, so we had a scallion pancake that was standard. The portion sizes are pretty decent for the size. This place has good service and is a great place for a family style meal. Overall, I would recommend if you’re looking for a place to do family style with good Chinese food.“

“I got the spicy beef noodle soup and the dumplings in chili oil. I thought the soup was decent. I would have preferred it spicer and there wasn't a ton of beef in it. The broth wasn't super rich, but still had decent flavors. One of my favorite things about the soup were the pickled(?) bamboo shoots. It was actually probably my favorite thing in the soup! The dumplings were really good! The chili oil was another star of the meal and I ended up added some into my soup for more spice and flavor.“

“Popped in here during a summer rain storm in the city and grabbed some happy hour beers and bites. The rest of the menu and food on others’ tables looked great but we got some dumplings, hot sour soup, and spring roles. Quite good hit the spot while waiting out the rain.“

“I visited this place on my trip to New York because I saw it had been awarded a Michelin bib gourmand. The food was amazing and definitely lived up to its reputation. We got the dry chili chicken and ma po tofu. Both were spicy but good. The ma po tofu in particular was very tingly, which was a unique experience.“

“This is one of my favorite places to get some affordable and authentic Szechuan Hot Pot in the city! It makes for a perfect after work meal especially with the weather settling further and further into fall 🍂 I love to get the prawn hot pot and just how much food comes with it (I always end up taking some home with me)
I’ve been here before when it was less busy, so I was able to order face to face with a server (and service was very friendly and accommodating) but also love that you can order by scanning the code on your table (quick and efficient service!)
I LOVE the broth here! It’s super rich and comforting 🤤I got spice level 2 but definitely could’ve handled a 3 as someone who genuinely loves spice but it was a great experience tasting how well balanced the flavors were
I do wish there was a head off option for the prawn but also love sucking the meat out of the brain I just hate getting super messy lol
Definitely worth the try if you’re a fan of authentic Szechuan or looking to taste something new!“

“We had a wonderful meal at Wa Jeal. Our dishes were fresh and beautifully presented. The ambiance is perfect for an intimate dinner: a handsome, well-space dining room, and quiet music in the background, attentive service. But best of all, the food is flavorful and absolutely delicious. Wa Jeal is one of our favorite places es to dine on the Upper East Side, and a true neighborhood gem.“

“Had the beef noodles, absolutely delicious. The soup is hearty and well made, the portions beat many other noodleshop, and the lady at the front desk was super patient and nice while tending to my modifications. They don’t pressure for tips, yet they still serve the food to your table. Definitely a selling point for uni students like myself“

“I went in and asked if they could make me sesame beef (which they didn't have on the menu) and without any further conversation the server walked away and then returned a few minutes later with fantastic sesame beef. Really quiet and clean place with lots of seating and nice restrooms. The food was fresh and crispy and the rice was really good too. Nice little oasis if you're hot/cold/tired/hungry and the prices are very reasonable.“

“Hunan Kitchen on Lexington Avenue offers an exceptional dining experience. The seating arrangement is excellent, ensuring comfort during your meal. The staff goes above and beyond, displaying friendliness and thoughtfulness throughout your visit. Today, I savored their sliced fish paired with white rice and sweet and sour soup from the lunch menu—a delightful combination of flavors. The dishes are consistently served piping hot and beautifully plated, adding to the overall enjoyment. On occasion, I indulge in combining two lunch specials, finding the ox tongue particularly delicious and refreshing when served cold. Overall, Hunan Kitchen is truly amazing, delivering outstanding cuisine alongside top-notch service, making it a must-visit destination for any food enthusiast.“

“When I came in from the outside I thought it looked like 1 of those sketchy places you see in a strip mall on the highway. When I sat down I was happy too see that the waitress came quickly and efficiently brought the food out quickly aswell. I ordered the chicken fried rice and it was delicious. I would definitely recommend going here on a date. The only thing keeping this place from a 5 is there above average prices.“

“What we liked best - the Dumpling Man staff are really friendly, kind and very knowledgeable about dumplings, their sake offerings and just nice to talk with while ordering. We enjoyed watching their precision timely steaming and pan frying their incredibly fresh dumplings and soup dumplings. We especially were impressed with the quality, cleanliness and were mesmerized watching their precision timely rhythmic hand stuffing and folding of their dumplings. 🥟 I liked that my order of 10 shrimp dumplings was too much for me to eat for dinner! My bottomless pit teen also was stuffed after eating 7 or 8 of the ! Amazing 🤩 My Lovie ordered the soup dumplings. 🥟 I liked that the shrimp dumplings had a little sweet corn inside along with several shrimp and pepper - finally a shrimp dumpling without bamboo and other tasteless fillers! The corn with full little fresh shrimps were tasty - probably the best insides I’ve enjoyed in a long time. My Lovie thought the soup dumplings were very juicy - a good thing since they are filled with juicy meat and soup - but not spicy enough for my dumpling connoisseurist.
Here’s what we weren’t crazy about - the outside dumpling wrap is thicker than we are used to, substantial and not going to rip when dunked - no chance. Since we literally saw them being made, we know they are super fresh, I think we are more used to a thinner wrap.
Don’t let the wrap stop you from trying this little place. My teen loved the hot and sour soup and the meat dumplings, my lovie and I thought the soup was substantial with juicy ingredients but way too sweet. We heard other diners express how much they loved the dumplings and soup so I think it’s a matter of preference and definitely worth trying to see what you think.
I would go back (and will go back!) for their shrimp dumplings, they were just too good and too high quality and my top rating for me to not make a run for the Dumpling Man when I want shrimp dumplings. 🥟 Also, I have to say this - this was the CLEANEST most NEAT and sanitary dumpling place - hands down! We observed frequent hand washing, sanitary handling of food, utensils and pans. It was impressive, especially as we eat our way through other East Village and Chinatown stands. This is reason enough to make a visit. They are an A (really A+) most other dumpling places start at B tbh… I liked this place very much and enjoyed our dinner. 🍽️ Cash only or Zelle.“

“Great food as a chinese carry out. The baby ribs w/ black beans sauce and the salt and pepper shrimp were tasty. Service was smooth and the people there were nice.
People complaining about the people that work here doesn’t know anything about their culture. You’re in their space, so y’all should respect them. It’s a carry out, not fine dining restaurant. If you don’t like it, go somewhere else.
Complaints about them not putting napkins and utensils in your bag? Deal with it! There’s a station right by the door. You can’t miss it. You want everything done for you? How spoiled can y’all get? They are workers, not slaves.“
