Dapan Niu
Goodness I.

Ordered pick up on a Saturday night when craving Chinese food and presented with a different option. If you're craving traditional Chinese, maybe don't come here, bc it's definitely a different concept! The food was flavorful, unfortunately the delivery time was continually pushed and our food arrived pretty much cold. I ordered my dish with no spice and pretty quickly realized that my lid was likely switched with another dish and I was eating the wrong food-thankfully, I had no allergies! I don't think I would return.

Herbal Beef Soup
Trish P.

Solid food for the price if you're craving handmade noodles. Broth in the herbal beef soup is flavorful and the "high" spice setting is truly hot (though pleasant). If I could do it over again, I wouldn't order the #2 udon-like noodles - I think either a thinner noodle or the ribbon hand pulled noodle would work better. The dapan niu was also deliciously pleasant, the ribbon hand pulled noodle did good, the texture, the taste, the tinge of sweetness. Service was pleasant, hospitable, lovely. Ambiance is fine. I can do without the view of the trash bins right outside the window, but the wallpapers were fascinating!

Trad. Stir Fry
Alexa K.

Absolutely amazing spot! Portions are amazing, staff is super friendly, and the food is super tasty! If you have great spice tolerance (like me), definitely recommend the highest spice level :)

Herbal Beef Soup and Lychee Tea.
Kathlyn B.

Good solo date. Seating is bar stool style. Large groups are probably not a good idea but 2-3 is fine. Noodles were thick and chewy. First time trying hand pulled noodles. I ordered medium spicy. Still coughed lol. Tread lightly. Otherwise delicious.

Hair in my food
Stephanie B.

So initially, I really love this location and love the fact that we had a handful noodles in the neighborhood and I went to visit again after having a great first time visit and they got my order completely wrong and we're frustrated when I asked them to correct it prices also increased randomly so after waiting another 20 minutes, I grabbed my order went home to eat it and found Hair inside of my food. Very disappointing. I literally just want to refund. I tried calling the store a few times and don't even get a response again just truly disappointing $20 on food. I can't even eat.

I decided to visit this location and I have to say I prefer this one because the customer service was outstanding. They were just so friendly and helpful with helping me decide on what I wanted and what level of spice. I mean it was just the way I was greeted and treated. I decided again to pick up some dumplings for my girls and some Dapan Niu for myself. I have to say I enjoyed my noodles a bit more this time because of the flavors and I actually got to pull my noodles this time, but I still think they need to find away to make it better for those who are taking it home. The time you get it home it stills just stick together. At least my noodles weren't broken into pieces this time but they were stuck together. Anyway I still enjoyed my meal and I think next time I'm definitely eating in on the spot. As a matter of fact I know I will visit again because they made the best Lychee Ice Tea I've ever had. I'm getting a couple of those just because lol. If I can finally get the pull like you see them do on social media and in a video they broadcast on location then I will be changing to five stars. For now A thumb up and Happy Yelping!

Hot & Tangy Pork & Chive dumplings
Vanessa A.

On Google Maps this place is known as "The Noodle" so almost thought I was in the wrong neighborhood. I ordered the cumin stir fry which starts at $14 but I had it with lamb and the handle pulled noodles so it cost $18.50. They were good, not my favorite though. Some of the lamb was a bit chewy. I also ordered the hot and tangy pork & chive dumplings ($10.50 for 6). I love how they came in the broth/soup but it at the same time it took away from the flavor of the dumplings. They were a bit on the doughy side. I really appreciate how they let you choose the spice level! I played it safe and went with low which didn't give it much heat and that was fine with me. If you order high or crazy high there's a note that states "no refunds" Took at least 10 minutes for Mr to get my order to go. They have about 8 stools that you can sit on if you want to enjoy your food there.

I prefer the Scallion + Ginger Stir Fry.
Sharon B.

This place did not disappoint. The food was absolutely amazing and flavorful. I will definitely visit again when I'm in the area. It was my first time and the young woman at the counter recommended and explained the dishes. The service was great.

Herbal Beef Soup
Meryam A.

This place might just be my new obsession--I ordered two days in a row! And yes, I've got the receipts to prove it. Both times, the food hit the spot. Feeling under the weather from traveling, I went with the Herbal Beef Soup with their special hand-pulled lamein noodles and the hot and tangy chicken and shiitake dumplings (you do have to pay extra for those noodles). The flavors were so rich and comforting, I was genuinely sad when I finished. You can tell everything is made fresh--the noodles and dumplings were next-level. The lamein noodles were thick and flat, which made slurping a bit tricky, so the next day I ordered the same soup but switched to lo mein noodles. They were thinner and perfect for slurping. Overall, I'm obsessed and can't wait to come in person on my next trip to try more!

Good spot if you're in the mood for tasty Chinese food. You have to order your food via a kiosk that has the meals with pictures. The food takes about 10 minutes to come out. I would've liked to be able to wash my hands somewhere but there's no bathroom for customers. Prices are decent. There isn't much of a dining room but there's a small table that run alongside the wall with some chairs.

We ordered takeout, let me start by saying I'm not a fan of this type of cuisine but since my (pregnant) daughter loves it, I decided to indulge this day. We ordered the noodles traditional style with lamb, it was seasoned well and the regular noodles were firm not chewy and pretty tasty, Thai sweet chili chicken wings were cooked too hard and dry , the sauce dribbled on them didn't make em any better, it didn't stick to the wings enough for me (thumbs down) and we got the broccoli with garlic sauce. The delivery service was on point no complaints, the place is a quaint space. Overall my daughter loved it but as for my taste I'll definitely go back and try something different on their menu to get the experience

Pork and chive with medium spice - yessss
Jess L.

My friend and I came for a weekday lunch. We were the only ones eating here; this spot mostly has a strong delivery and takeout game, it seems. The eat-in spot is fairly bare and counter seating. The menu is short but well curated. You can order on a tablet, which shows pictures and lets you choose spiciness levels. (The hottest level is described as incredibly strong.) We split two dishes with medium spice, which I'd say was still quite strong. Great noodle texture, though noodles were so long that it was hard to eat/cut with the utensils we had. We got extra spicy crisp sauce on the side, which was a great addition. The guy working in the main area was so kind to bring it to us. I can't wait to come back and try more.

Dapan Niu (9.5/10)
 Incredibly unique flavor bomb with a powerful spicy kick
Jason T.

Immediately you can tell this is a location that is designed for comfort food and mainly serves as a takeout location. The area is small yet has a charm to it. Famous for their handmade noodles, and I had to try them out! I did takeout and so the food was a little cold because I live around 30 mins away. I can tell right away the noodles definitely hit the spot if you need some noodles, some heat, and a tinge of home! The pricing is really fair for the quantity and the quality speaks for itself. Dapan Niu is fantastic but comes with pre-set spice. Beef broth is one of their most ordered along with the Stir Fry. Would definitely come here again. The service was pretty standard and friendly. As it is a takeout place there is nothing there. Ratings are based on food, scallions were a bit lackluster.

Pork and chives dumplings - very satisfying, filling is moist and flavorful, wrapper is chewy and not too thick. Recommended

I promptly sat myself at the bar and took in the beautiful ambience that Red Rooster Harlem has to offer. After drooling over the menu, I ordered a Pom-o Paradise which I later found out is a pomegranate margarita on tap topped with Prosecco. This drink is ordered up to 500 times a day and rightfully so!! It was light and delicious. For dinner, I ordered the sweet potato and coconut soup. It was flavorful and memorable. I crave it as I write this review. I then had the jerk salmon bowl. As a Jamaican, I was skeptical, however I had faith in God and the chef lol. I have to admit I was a little disappointed when I saw that the small, roasted tomatoes were left whole, however, cutting into them as they elegantly burst into an additional sauce was an experience I didn't know I needed. The jerk rub was spot on and made me want to whip out my flag, but I surprisingly left it at home. I say all this to say, I had an amazing experience and can't wait to come back and try their highly recommended chicken & waffles, shrimp & grits, mac and greens, and more. Until next time, Red Rooster Harlem!

Saturday, 9th May 2026 Harlem, NYC…read more Rainy day 60s We were here for a Pre-Mother's Day Reggae brunch and to hear the music of the fabulous BROOKLYNERS Reggae band. It was wonderful to see customers get up to dance! Red Rooster's brunch menu had much to enjoy and we tried as many items on the menu as we three could. Of course we required 'doggie bags' to take home leftovers. - For Brunch we indulged on their: - Deviled Eggs, Cornbread, Fried Chicken on waffle, Red Velvet pancake with eggs and maple bacon, and Double Smashed Cheeseburger with Fries. Yes, we will have to work off the calories tomorrow, but so worth it! Good list of wines, beers, cocktails and various libations. Friendly staff and servers, although often moving at a slow pace. However, each were very friendly, warm and helpful with inquiries. Irie!

Large portions and prices that are refreshing to see in this economy…read more I was visiting from the south and had given up on finding a solid, delicious dinner until I lucked up on this restaurant. Service was great and the restaurant was pleasant and filled with natural light. We didn't have a reservation but there was no problem to be seated quickly and served promptly. Took off one star because a member of my dinner party had trouble returning their side of collard greens due to it being too salty. A staff member who wasn't our original waitress, pressed them to choose another one. So I'm not sure if this restaurant allows you to take an item off the bill if it misses the mark but I'd still return in a heartbeat.

The food is the real spotlight. The smothered chicken with collard greens and mac and cheese is a must. The yams were perfectly done but definitely on the sweeter side, so just something to keep in mind. I already know I need to come back to try the fried chicken next time. If you are looking for a traditional Southern brunch at a true neighborhood staple, this is the place. I only wish I lived closer.
