We stayed in Chinatown and stumbled across this place that was open until midnight and their kitchen was still open. Thank God It was so cute and clean, nice ambiance. Very much a vibe. We were seated immediately and handed iPads to order which went straight to the kitchen. We ordered cucumber salad in garlic dressing (refreshing, but heavy on the garlic), 8 Sec Stir Fried Beef w/ silantro pickled peppers (nice flavor and kick) with a side of white rice and a Blue Paradise & Cosmo to wash it down. Simple, delicious and exactly what we needed The manager is a hustler, waiting tables, bartender and making sure all guest needs were met. The crowd was pretty mixy, I'd consider it a great spot for an after dinner cocktail or a night out.

The old Baohaus was a haven for late night drunchies right on 14th and 1st, a part of many of our…read moreEast Village weekend haunts. It closed during the pandemic and has now reopened many years later just a few blocks south on St. Mark's Place, in much more spacious digs and a more grown up, robust menu. I was with a large group so I was able to order many different dishes. We sat in their backyard space and since it was a bit chilly they turned on their heat lamps for us. The online menu was not updated to reflect the menu they were serving in house while I was there, and that still seems to be the case now. We were excited to try happy accident mumbo hake w/soy bean crisp, which was a delight, the mapo tofu gnocchi, which tasted like it sounds, the grilled prawns in a herbaceous green sauce, which had good flavor, and the whole grilled squid with squid ink lo mein, which was probably the best bite on the table, but one that is obviously easy to like. I was quite surprised that the baos were not as well executed. The surf clam bao in particular was very chewy and hard to eat as a whole. The pickled mustard green fried rice was also overly greasy and not salty enough. Since we were seated in the backyard we found that our servers didn't come over to our tables often, and they also seemed overwhelmed when we were able to make eye contact, so our meal ended up being much longer than we planned. It was exciting to see Eddie Huang himself perched at the bar counter in the front of the restaurant, wearing his signature buddha jade pendant. It seems he's often there, because I've had friends report seeing him there on other nights as well. I think he accomplished what he set out to do, which is to put together a creative and ambitious menu with dishes I haven't seen elsewhere, in a lively space that feels very inviting and appropriate for St. Mark's. If they update their menu, I wouldn't mind returning to try more creative dishes.

The space is tight but lots of seating, had no trouble walking in on a Friday night. Having the big pot of rice at the table so you can serve yourself while still keeping it warm is such a good idea. The baos are so fresh and flavorful, get many to share. Ma po tofu might be the best I've ever had, not insanely szechuan-y but so deeply flavorful. They said they have a smoker in the backyard where they roast the lamb?? that's so cool. The wine menu is thoughtfully curated, mostly stocked with reislings that drink well in between bites chili covered pork and saucy tofu. They didn't have dessert but at the end of our meal they dropped a bowl of red gummy bears which was so cute. Do we need another fun restaurant on St. Marks? I didn't think so, but after one meal at Baohaus I know I would be happy to start many more fun nights out here in the future. Also the merch is sick.

When you walk in, you're welcomed by the fragrant scent of Vietnamese cooking and friendly service. We did not need a reservation. My boyfriend and I ordered their com suon and pho sao mai.

We stopped inside here for our 4th & final stop of 4 on the tour. This place was small inside so there wasn't any place to eat the dumplings, so we just waited outside and ate the dumplings curbside once they were done. The one here had this like herb with sauce it sits in. You dip the dumpling inside the sauce and then get after it, it was very good. We polished off these really quick. Would recommend to anyone who loves dim sum to try them out.

I have fond memories of getting dumplings in Chinatown over the years, so when I learned about…read moreNorth Dumpling I was eager to try it. I stopped by on a weekday afternoon, and I did admire the quick service. However, part of the reason for that quickness was that the dumplings were not freshly made. I ordered the chives and pork pan-fried dumplings, and they did not have that crispiness you expect with pan-fried dumplings. Once I ordered, the server removed them from a container near the register, and I wished I could have tried them after they were just fried. I also found them lacking in flavor, and the only upside is that the dumpling quantity to price ratio was a good value. Yet, given the dumping quality I don't see myself returning.
