    Dry Shrimp Rice Roll
    Gordon Y.

    Been coming to this steamed rice roll shop for nearly 20 years. Prices are still unbelievablely cheap after all this time. No frills. No thrills. Standing room only. Just the way I prefer it. They make a fantastic rice roll fresh after you order. You can watch the whole cooking process right in front of your eyes. The finished product is smooth, with just enough chew. If I have to nitpick, I wish their sauces were a bit thicker and stronger in flavor. However, I appreciate how good their rice roll is and can overlook that aspect. Definitely get the curry fish ball version. Ask for extra curry, then add soy sauce, peanut sauce, and hot sauce. The dry shrimp rice roll is also quite delicious too. You can't really go wrong. Enjoy!

    Great hole in a wall cash only spot. It's about 15 minutes walk from the Seaport. Service was quick. For $6.75, I ordered the curry fish ball rice noodles and small taho. The meal covered breakfast and lunch during this heat wave. The spot opens from 7:30am - 4:30pm.

    Honestly didn't love this place. Quick service, very fresh but I thought it was bland and not enough meat. The sauces were good but you need TONS. Great prices but probably won't be back.

    This is a great place if you're looking for a quick, affordable bite. The rice bowls are super tender and, paired with the toppings, can be a great combo. I like going with the pork, the green onions, and the corn, but truthfully you can get whatever you like, and I'm sure it will be great. When you pair them with the peanut sauce, the hot sauce, and the soy sauce, it elevates the flavors to a whole new level. Also, they are surprisingly filling. One order is always enough to fill me up. The service is quick and efficient, and although there's no seating, I usually just go to the park down the block and enjoy my meal there.

    This is a little hole in the wall spot, there's no seating, but you can totally sit on the stairs or lean against the walls of nearby buildings. This place was super affordable, all the rice rolls are all pretty much less than $5 with some being only $1.50 which is a total steal. I got the fresh shrimp rolls, they make it fresh with each order so they all come out piping hot. The rice rolls were super soft but a little plain, the sweet soy sauce helps. I wish there was a bit more shrimp in it but can't really complain for the price.

    House made rice noodles + tofu for sale

    Sun hing lung is a hole in the wall Chinese rice noodles and tofu joint that sells silky affordable rice rolls. They close early, so we were super ecstatic that we were in the area before 4pm. This type of rice noodles are not the same as those served in a banquet hall/dimsum joint and are freshly steamed on the spot. There is no seating, but we found wall ledge nearby and gobbled up our tasty rice rolls. Sauces are self service so definitely make sure to squeeze a lot as it's necessary for those rice noodles to taste superb. BRING CASH - as this place is cash only and as with most of nyc chinatown, cash is king.

    This is still by far the best and cheapest eats you cannot find anywhere else when it comes to rice noodles! At $2.50, you can get a box of rice noodles that is good enough to satisfy your hunger! The rice roll is kind of tiny so to become full you might need to get 2 orders. They come in a plastic square box. I always get the beef, pork, or chicken rice rolls and they make it as you place your order so you know it is very fresh! I love their soy sauce and peanut sauces! They make the rice noodle really sweet in a good way that is very addicting and wanting you to crave more of it! I recommend this spot to anyone who wants fast and cheap bites!

    Just OK - there was a LOT of rice rolls but just 4 shrimp, and the shrimp didn't even end up inside the rice rolls so it felt deconstructed. Don't make the same mistake I did and wait to eat it as it'll dry up. Super affordable (Shrimp was $4.25, but rice rolls range $2.50 - $5.00) and super chewy. Great texture. I would probably still take a sit-down over this spot, but convenience and speed takes the cake here.

    So good!!! One or two orders is more than enough for one person. The meat and toppings are a bit light to be honest but I think it's well priced and so so fresh. I got 6 orders for $21.50.

    Delicious, freshly made rice noodles! We got the fresh shrimp rice roll and it was chewy and flavorful. There was a line so we waited about 12 minutes but they move people through quickly. Very affordable! Note: there is no seating to eat, it is window service.

    Lesly M.

    Ohh worth the wait! Super affordable and delicious. Got the fresh shrimp roll and watercress with egg. Would get this everyday! Place is tiny, no seating but quick and kind!

    Curry fish ball rice roll

    Hands down the best bite in Chinatown. The rice roll texture is unbeatable, perfectly soft and chewy. I will dream of this for the rest of my life.

    Beef, roast pork, dried shrimp and egg
    Will N.

    Three orders for $10 so not much I have to critique on. Usually a roasted pork fan, so I didn't expect the beef to be my favorite--very tender, flavorful crumbles. As a sauce addict, I appreciate this store for leaving bottles at front for customers to freely add. They have a hoisin sauce, soy sauce, peanut sauce, and a spicy/sriracha sauce. I surely went back for seconds. Pretty fast prep time too. Despite the consistent line, I only waited a minute or two for my entire order to be ready. My only note is that this place makes their rice rolls the more mushy/clumpy way while I actually prefer the thinner/layered way. Still good though! And of course, cash only.

    Some of the worst rice rolls I've ever had

    Do you plan to open or come back?

    They are open. Possibly new owners.

    When will it open againnnn? I am dying without my rice rolls :((((

    They have reopened!!!

    Does anyone know why it's closed or if it will reopen?

    Word is they closed due to a failed gas inspection. They estimate a 6 month closure but I've seen these before and they can easily be a year. You need to reinspection after it's back to code.

    Is this place actually CLOSED as per Yelp?

    Yes it is

    How much is the vegetable rice noodle?

    It's $1.50! Can't beat the prices here :D

    As the name implies, it really is an excellent dumpling house!…read more Me and my buddies were in Jersey and New York for some hockey games, and wanted to go to a deli, get some Chinese food, and a slice of pizza. Got off the E train and when we looked for Chinese food, this place popped up with good reviews and it was just a short walk from where we got off the train. My buddies ordered the special lunches and we also got two types of xlb's, beef chow fun, and some fried dumplings. The special lunches come with a little fried rice, cold garlic flavored noodle, choice of egg drop or hot and sour soup, and main side. My buddies all enjoyed their meals. The beef chow fun was also really good and beef was nice and tender. The xiao long baos were excellent and is comparable to any place in California like DTF. Nice and juicy and great with some ginger, soy sauce, and spicy chili. Friendly service and food comes out pretty quickly. Credit card is accepted. Bathroom was also very clean, which is sometimes rare in some Chinese restaurants I have been to. If you're looking for a good Chinese meal, stop here when you're in the Chelsea area.

I missed a call and literally two minutes later the call came through again and the woman yelled at me - "hurry up hurry up, hurry up, hurry up!" said the driver was waiting 10-15 minutes for me, which was simply untrue - I got a call literally two minutes before- just rude. Added a screenshot in case the owner doubles down that it was 15 mins. Guess the first call was from the delivery driver, and the second was from the restaurant itself. ‍ But the really disappointing part is that they didn't pack any soup separate from the noodles! - So my chicken dumpling noodle soup basically had no soup - don't know if they forgot it or if it was absorbed by the noodles but most restaurants at this point know to pack the broth and the noodles separately,- so I ended up having to add some of my own vegetable broth, which totally was not the flavor I was hoping for. So - love the food, but delivery service leaves a lot to be desired - next time I'll try giving instructions to pack the soup separate from the noodles and see if that helps!

Then we got a handful of apps - everyone else swore by all the ones they'd had - but I just tried the Salt & Pepper Shrimp and... sweet baby Jesus, this little plate had a wicked amount of flavor from every angle.  "Aggressively seasoned" might be an understatement.  Wild. Onto the mains and I ventured towards their Spicy Drunken Noodle (my go-to whenever I'm hitting a Thai restaurant on my home turf) and... yeah, you probably guessed it - incredible. Not the biggest portion but they made every single component sing with flavor. With so much going on - of course I needed to indulge with another drink (hey, I wasn't driving!). There were six of us, it came to about $100 a person... welcome to NYC. But we did get a wide selection of plates/food and those two drinks accounted for about $40 of my tab. (And you'll never see such a heavy wine pour at a restaurant... they filled the glass almost to the rim - which was not even something I'd do for myself when I'm home.) Definitely recommended.

Then the scallion pancakes which were crispy and airy paired with this very interesting sauce that was clear but tasted like sweet and sour sauce. For mains we got Kung Pao Chicken which was pretty delicious but my star of the show was the Crispy Beef. It was crispy asf and skinny too I didn't know you could make beef skinny like that. Sauce was super tasty and thick. On the side was broccoli which was fine and eggplant which was fine on its own and good with the chili sauce. Split the Fortune Cookie Red Velvet Cake which okay I thought there would be more creativity with adding fortune cookies somewhere in the cake but it was just a cake with fortune cookies on top. Also they put 2 when we had 4 people like lowkey they couldve just put 2 more on there but anyways the cake itself was pretty tasty so can't complain there.

The hand-pulled noodles *gasp* weren't hand pulled. "BBQ" chicken in the other noodles was very dry. Sea bass portion was very small. Scallion pancakes were good. Shrimp dumplings were the highlight. I recommend skipping this restaurant.
