Really happy I found this spot in Grand Central. I've been here a few times now and the food has been consistently good. There's actually a lot to choose from -- noodles, rice bowls, dumplings, bao and boba. I usually go for one of the rice bowls or noodles and it's always a pretty filling portion. The pork belly is really good and definitely one of my favorites. Their dumplings are also worth trying. I also like that they have a full drink menu. I've tried a couple of their fruit teas and boba drinks and they've all been good without being crazy sweet. The employees have always been really nice too. Even when there's a line, they move pretty quickly and I've never had to wait too long. For something inside Grand Central, I think the prices are pretty reasonable and you get a good amount of food. Definitely a nice find if you're around the area and want something quick that isn't just another sandwich or salad. Will definitely be coming back. read more

Quick and easy food inside of Grand Central Station. Not sure what the rush hour service looks like but I got my food within 5 minutes. Tried the Sichuan Chicken Noodle and it was really good. It's listed as a dry noodle but it actually comes with a bit of broth with chili oil and other fragrances, which you can use to mix the noodles into. Really made the dish come together and helped to make sure every bite was flavorful. Without it, the chicken pieces, which looked like separately prepared shredded bits placed on top of the dish, would have been too bland. Would recommend! read more

Got the chong Qing noodles which were really nice and spicy. It was also at a decent price of $10 which is great for midtown. They put chickpeas instead of peanuts - I think I would prefer peanuts better. Next time I will BYO peanuts. read more

The beef noodle soup is great'! They use short ribs and they are very tender. The soup tastes very flavorful and it is enhanced with cilantro and chili oil! read more

San Wei had the longest line at the food stalls in Grand Central when we were trying to grab dinner before a broadway show. Noodles were fresh and flavorful, but had a bit of an acquired taste. We got the Shanghai Scallion Oil noodle and San Wei mixed noodle. The San Wei noodle had a lot more food, but the meat was a bit fatty. read more

This is my go-to at Grand Central. Not sure why there's hardly ever anyone there, but don't sleep on this stall! Almost everything I've ever had here is great, from noodles to dumplings. Love the pork belly baos. All dishes are well seasoned. Friendly staff. They are really good at letting you know that certain dishes are made faster than others (ie ready made hot line v dumplings that are boiled to order), in case you are in a time crunch for the train. Love all the bubble tea options. Milk and Thai tea with variations (coconut, taro) and fruit drinks are all amazing and made fresh! Reasonable prices for great quality. read more

Short line, 15 minute wait for prepared fast food. Chicken with sesame noodles was dry. Sauce on bottom. Chicken meh flavor. Upsold me to include spring rolls for $0.75, greasy, very greasy. 3 hours later and my belly is turning, not feeling well. Was feeling perfect before. I don't recommend it. read more

Swung by this newish stall in the GCT food court and was pleasantly surprised! They have a good selection of both food and drinks and pretty quick service. I enjoyed the flavours of both noodle dishes we tried - I'd come back again to try more! Great addition to the food court / area. read more

I think they're a pop-up (?) in the Grand Central dining concourse but nonetheless glad I came across it! They had a lot of different options for wontons and noodles + other dishes as well but I've always wanted to try scallion oil noodles, so I got that and my mom got the pork & shrimp wontons. Fell in love with the scallion oil noodles as it was slightly sweet but super savory with a hint of mala, and they were generous with the bokchoy which was a pleasant surprise. I'm also obsessed with cilantro so this definitely satisfied that craving. The noodles themselves were on the chewier side (which I liked) and the sauce itself was rich and aromatic, without being too dry or greasy. The pork & shrimp wontons came in a broth that was clean but still flavorful, not overly salty. They definitely use spices but the soup itself + the noodles earlier I wouldn't say are necessarily spicy (as someone who usually orders medium spice). There was only one person working in the kitchen but the food still came out in about 15 minutes so I'd say service was great! We ate at some high tables in the area near the other stores which may or may not have seats (we just stood lol). They also have a variety of drinks which I'll have to check out next time!! read more

San Wei is located in GCT, so it is convenient to pick up lunch when traveling on MNR, LIRR, or the subway. However, note that the food is made to order, so it can take quite a bit of time, and there are only standing tables. It can be loud, as it is in the station. If you are in a rush, this might not be for you. The quality of food is dependent on what you order, as the food can be bland without the very delicious chili oil. I ordered the Dan Dan noodles and Xiaolongbao. The Dan Dan Noodle: The minced pork was flavorful, and the noodles were cooked perfectly. However, the broth leaves a lot to be desired, as it was very bland, which makes the noodles equally as bland. Even with the chili oil, it was bland. Xialongbao: The employees are very nice at answering questions. I was able to try both types of buns, chicken, and pork! The filling was delicious. Some may say the buns are thick, but with the chili oil is great! read more

I came by this place while browsing the Grand Central Terminal food court. I wanted soup since the weather was so cold and dreary. The portion size was great. It had great taste too. I recommend their noodles soup. read more

I ordered Pork Soup Dumplings and apparently should've specifically checked before walking away. What I got was neither pork, nor soup dumplings. Not particularly complicated, but extremely disappointing. I don't eat fish or seafood, but thankfully I'm not allergic, otherwise it would have been quite the eventful evening. I know one place I definitely will not be revisiting. I'd advise everyone else to carefully examine what they're given before running off for a train. Complete waste of money and massive disappointment. read more

San Wei popped up at the Grand Central dining concourse and was excited to give it a try--it's super convenient location! I ordered the pork and shrimp wontons in spicy sesame sauce. I wasn't expecting a soup/broth base. It was very mild, not spicy at all and I didn't really get any sesame flavor, which was a bit of a letdown. The wontons themselves were solid, just wished it was more spicy.. I also tried the Shanghai style noodles with chicken leg. The noodles were great! I love the chili oil it came with. Also, very mild... The chicken leg was unfortunately... bland. :( Overall, not bad at all. I'd go back to try other noodle options and definitely want to check out the pastrami sandwich next time. read more

I don't know why the google reviews are much lower for this spot, but I loved my egg and tomato noodles here. The sauce was so flavorful and the noodles were the perfect amount of cooked. It really hit the spot for a quick lunch meal. I was able to order on the kiosk and get my lunch in under 10 minutes! read more

Food does not match menu. I've eaten here a few times and today I don't know what they served me but the food was disappointing and disgusting. This is not what I'm usually served here. Soggy rice, not chicken teriyaki, and frozen overcooked broccoli. They should've paused items on their menu if it wasn't available. read more

Paid $28 for 2 rice bowl. To say I was disappointed would be an understatement. Not only was my rice clumped together but my meat was all bread no meat more like a popcorn chicken nugget and the sauce was supposed to be general tso it definitely wasn't. The Japanese curry was very thick amd barely had any meat with over cooked brown broccoli. To top it off the spring rolls were stale. I threw away both plates as it was unpalatable. read more

We ordered Xiao Long Bao, but it turned out to be regular bao instead. The dumpling soup was decent, but overall nothing really stood out.

Had to grab a quick bite before dashing off to the US Open, and this was the perfect spot. Dishes were reasonably priced and quickly and flavorfully made. I highly recommend the Shanghai Style Noodle with Chicken Leg though make sure the chicken leg is actually in the bowl before you leave because the worker conveniently forgot to include it in mine. I think it was an honest mistake, but thankfully I realized before I left the station. read more

I arrived in New York City late and was relieved to find this restaurant at Grand Central Station still open. I ordered a combination bento box with two proteins, along with the San Wei noodles and Chongqing mixed noodles. Service was quick--the food was ready in just a few minutes. It made for a delicious late-night to-go meal, which we enjoyed back at the hotel. There is no table but the service was prompt and items were packed nicely for a quick transport to the hotel. read more

Good took 25 minutes for some dumplings crazy! The dumplings were all packed together so when we picked them up the soup burst out. Some of the dumplings were kinda hard. Standing tables only. read more

Hard to find the right words! We visited on Friday for lunch, had a long look at the menu and thought we knew what we were up for. For context, the menu indicated several items as spicy and very spicy. Our choice, sesame chicken noodles and Sichuan chicken noodles and spring rolls, had no such indication... But the picture for Sichuan chicken noodles admittedly looked a little spicy. Eventually, the sesame chicken noodles were tossed in spicy chilli oil (the description on the order terminal mentioned that but I only realized when checking after having received the food), but there was no description for the Sichuan chicken noodles... And they turned out to be tossed in peanut sauce and topped with crushed peanuts. Luckily, we caught that before we dug in - it was intended for someone allergic! Service was fast, and ambiance... Well, it's the food court in GCT, so you should get the picture. All things considered, we will probably have eaten there twice already, for the first and the last time! ​ read more

Not enough staff and food is mediocre. Cuisine was needed in the area but not worth the frustration.

Food was delicious! Highly recommend the beef stew. Definitely my favorite on the menu but followed by a close second with the pork belly. Rich was also great, there was a mishaps and he took care of my family and I efficiently and was also friendly. Thanks Rich! Good food good workers and already thinking about my next visit. : ) read more
