Such a great late night spot! Came here after a concert on a Thursday night and had a lovely meal. The inside isn't too big but is beautifully decorated and a perfect date spot or to catch up with friends. We started with the steamed vegetable dumplings which were amazing! The dumplings are packed with a mix of veggies and are the perfect texture. We also got the scallion pancake which was perfectly crispy and delicious. For our main we got the sesame tofu which comes in a huge portion and was nicely crispy and soft on the inside. The sesame sauce is delicious and the rice that comes with it is perfection. For dessert, we got a scoop of the ube and green tea ice creams and both were so refreshing and not too sweet. The green tea was my favorite but the ube was also incredible. Really cute spot with excellent service! read more

Such a cool restaurant in Brooklyn for any occasion- girls night, date night or just wanting some good Chinese food on a Tuesday. For apps, we got the sweet and sour soup and the dumplings in peanut/ spicy oil. The soup portion is huge and tasted great. Dumplings are must. For mains, we got the sesame chicken and veggie lo mein, both were delicious. Great prices, friendly staff and great vibes! read more

The food here was not bad, but nothing amazing. The duck was a little dry and not very crispy. The pork soup dumplings were okay. The string beans were fantastic. Service was pretty good, but our waiter took a while. Inside is a very modern asian vibe, fitting for the neighborhood. read more

Wei Williamsburg - Pork Soup Dumplings - Chinese Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

At the start of the year I always have dinner w/ my cousin and we pick a different spot each time. This time a friend joined us and I finally was able to try this spot. It's been in my bookmarks for a min. Super cute quaint spot w/ pretty good service. I was happy w/ that and we didn't get to the food yet. On the table: Veggie dumplings & spring rolls Wei favorite chicken Shrimp fried rice Beef lo mein Sautéed string beans in garlic sauce Washed it all down w/ rose and orange wine. LOVED all of it. Except the shrimp fried rice, don't eat seafood. And the lo mein was a lil bland. That's the only reason for the 4 stars. It definitely would've been 5. I will def be back to try more of their menu. read more

We placed a late-night delivery order and even paid a slight fee for the extra distance. We ordered: - shrimp fried rice - beef lo mein - spring rolls - wontons with peanut sauce - sesame chicken The original delivery time of 50-70mins was extended beyond half an hour. Then changed twice again after that. The lo mein and fried rice had ZERO flavor. I was praying for some soy sauce packets, but none were included and our apt didn't have any. The spring rolls were mid at best. My friends liked the sauce on the wontons (at least it had flavor), but the wontons were nothing special. The sesame chicken DID TASTE LIKE SOMETHING but it wasn't what I traditionally think of when I eat it. At least I could mix a bite of that in with everything else to make it less bland. Would never order from here again. Save yourself the bummer of a meal and the money. read more

Imagine an intimate ambiance light music in the background dim lighting and delicious food. A group of us stopped in and they were so accommodating. The staff Miho and Jeff were so warm and kind!

Looking for a catch up with friends dinner? Date night? Parents in town? Bring them to WEI! Wei is one of my favorite restaurants in Williamsburg! Drinks are unique. Food is amazing, comes out fast, and perfect for sharing (the ideal way to dinner). Staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, keeps me coming back! Pro tip! Here's my order - - chicken wings, spicy peanut wontons, soup dumplings, salt and pepper chicken (all to share of course)...don't forget the soups! read more

Wei is an upgraded Americanized Chinese restaurant playing off the nostalgia of its millennial audience. I mean when is the last time anyone saw mu shu vegetables on a menu? At the same time, the helpful translation of "small plates" into "xiaochi"tells you that the nostalgia is self-aware. I had the General Tso's tofu, because what else would I order at such an establishment. The sauce was excellent, although the tofu consisted of small chewy pieces. I'd venture that some larger chunks of tofu might better soak up all of the sauce. The traditional singular broccoli floret was a nice touch. Good vibes for a weeknight cocktail as well. read more

True gem. Every single thing about this spot is excellent. Food is delicious, atmosphere on point, hours are incredible and staff (especially our ever beloved house mother making it all feel like home) are on top of it. We are oh so lucky to have Wei ! read more

I love the ambiance in here! Such a cute little spot to pop into for either a light bite or a full dinner. They have all the traditional Chinese dishes that you love, and some really great starters too. My fave was the pork soup dumplings! We went in around dinner time on a Sunday night and were able to get a cozy booth right away. :) read more

Came here a few days ago with no reservation and they were pretty packed but got sat right away. The service was 10/10. Everyone I talked to was sweet and attentive. The fashionista with the long braids that greeted us at the door was funny and nice. The server we had- don't remember her name but she has short curly blonde hair- was also nice and we never found ourselves waiting for her. She was on top of it. The food came out lickity split! And o.m.g. everything we ordered was delicious. I definitely recommend the spicy chicken and the string beans! Soooo much garlic on them beans and I was in heaven. Definitely coming back next time I'm in this part of town :) read more

One of my favorite restaurants in NYC. This place exudes magic and the ambiance is truly special. Don't skip the cocktails, and make sure to try the duck, soup dumplings and spicy wontons--but honestly everything is good. Whenever someone asks me for a vibey place in the neighborhood for dinner, I always recommend Wei! read more

Came to Wei per a friend's recommendation and I was certainly not disappointed. The best Chinese food I've had in a while! First of all, this place has an amazing ambiance. Cute decor and great playlist -- definitely a good spot for date night. Service was fab too. Super attentive with ensuring drinks were always filled, etc. For starters we ordered the egg drop soup and spicy peanut wontons. Both were incredible, but I'd say the spicy peanut wontons are definitely a must. The soup was way bigger than we were expecting! We got the sesame chicken and beef lo mein for our main entrees. I have to say this was maybe the best lo mein I've ever had. The beef was so juicy and added a really delicious flavor to the noodles. The sesame chicken was super crunchy with the right amount of sweetness. This will definitely be my new spot for Chinese delivery! read more

My best friend and I decided to have a lil city date, so we found this restaurant on Yelp and it just spoke to us. This restaurant is pretty tiny but the vibes are elite. We loved the decor and ambiance. We decided to sit at the bar so we didn't have to wait too long for a table. We were seated pretty quick and basically asked the bar tender to tell us his favorites and that's what we ordered. The steamed bbq pork buns were good but definitely needed way more filling. The real show stoppers were the sautéed green beans with garlic and the spicy peanut wontons. I literally wanted to hop into the kitchen to see how they made it so I could remake it at home because it was just that delicious. The crispy duck was also super good and I loved that they gave tortillas with it to make lil burritos. Sitting at the bar and yapping we just kept seeing food other people ordered which just has me dying to go back and try other menu items. read more

Don't pass this place up and give everyone a high five from me. First the food. Can we say delicious choices of soup dumplings, spicy wonton, chicken mein, pork belly fried rice, pickled cabbage and fried shrimp. I can say that everything was made perfectly and had a good fusion Chinese flavor. If you are looking for super traditional Chinese, this place may not be for you. But if you want to spice up ur life, here you go. The service was top notch, my BIL was friends with the servers but I saw how they treated everyone in the restaurant kindly and quick service for sure. The ambiance was eclectic and that is cool. Think of it as a cross between and cool little bar and a coffee boutique mixed with a lively restaurant feel. Yeah that's it. They had a pretty nice selection of whiskeys and beers if you want to snack and have a few at the bar area. All around good place, would def return! read more

Food was decent. I enjoyed every single dish we ordered. Service was attentive. I definitely liked the ambiance, which I think made the experience even better. That being said, it's a good place if you are in the area already. read more

Great place to grab some affordable Chinese food with lots of vegetarian options! I would definitely recommend getting the garlic green beans (SOOOO GOOD) and the spicy peanut wontons. The wontons definitely are more peanut than chili oil so if you don't like peanut butter I wouldn't get this. The veggie dumplings were also really good but just normal steamed veggie dumplings. Ask for the chili oil on the side, it's worth it. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my meal and I will be back :) read more

Came here last night, server was very short with us and kinda rude, then served us hot and sour soup with chicken in it even though we ordered all our meals vegan. After eating half the bowl we noticed chicken in the soup and said something to her. Her response was just "oh, did I bring out the wrong one? Let me get a new one". Didn't comp the soup, didn't offer an apology, didn't check in after that. When the check came out she mentioned she didnt charge me for 2 sodas, which is nice but not the way to go about fixing your mistake. We went to see a band after and both felt sick. Not coming back read more

What started as a craving for dumplings turned into a night of delicious eats at Wei Williamsburg. We went on a packed Saturday night and waited over an hour, but our patience was rewarded. The service was top-notch once we were seated, and the food came out quickly. I can't emphasize enough how great the dumplings are, but everything we tried was absolutely delicious. The bar has a great vibe. The dim lighting and candles on the tables create a perfect date night atmosphere. Some of the tables are close together, but it's New York City, so that's expected. I can't wait to return to Wei. read more

I love this place! So cozy, really great food. Wei's favorite chicken, the sesame tofu, & the hot and sour soup are all amazing!! They have really nice cocktails and they're open late, so this is a go-to for my friends and I before/after a night out. The scallion pancakes are just okay; better to skip them for something else instead! read more

Cute little Chinese spot in Williamsburg! The wontons in peanut sauce along with the lo mein were definitely my fav dishes that I would happily go back for. However, next time I would skip the general tsos tofu since it was a bit too sweet for me and lacked balance. - @nyconthetable read more

Wei Williamsburg - Ambiance - Chinese Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Always on point, dleicious, fresh, and the vibe is great. One of the best parts is they are open late! The menu offers a wide variety of authentic Chinese dishes, with a good selection of vegetarian options as well as meat based. I started off with the scallion pancake, crispy and but soft... perfectly cooked and had a great texture with a nice contrast from the dipping sauce. For my main course, I ordered the Eggplant with garlic sauce, and it was delicious. Cooked to perfection and the sauce was sooo flavorful, a perfect balance of textures and flavors. Wei has a Full bar with lots of options and bartenders who are very skilled and knowledgeable. I received a perfect martini cocktail to complement my meal and they have a range of Gin to choose from like Dorothy Parker, Brooklyn...etc. The vibe is intimate but casual, with a mix of indoor and outdoor seating depending on the time of year you come. Round booth seating and tables as well as seats at the bar. The service at Wei was also top-notch. Our waiter was attentive and friendly, and he made sure that we had everything we needed. I would highly recommend Wei to anyone looking for a great Chinese dining experience in Williamsburg, or just a place to have a casual drink and a bite. I'll be back. read more

Have never been so disappointed at a restaurant before Ive never written a yelp review before but feel the need to express what I experienced tonight. We didn't come in with high expectations because we were just looking for sustenance. Ordered a total of 4 dishes: bbq pork buns, plain scallion pancake, fried chicken dumplings, and ma pao tofu. Scallion pancake and fried dumplings came out and it was room temperature, not even within 5 mins of ordering. Anyone who tries it can tell they both came straight from the freezer. The food had almost no flavor, only way we were able to consume it was by drenching it soy sauce and hot chili oil. Even then, it couldn't mask the lack in flavor. Next, the pork buns came out and there was practically no pork filling in the buns. Other reviews have pictures of the inside, I can find better pork buns at the Chinese supermarket and steam it myself than this place. Lastly, ma pao tofu is not a dish that you can easily mess up yet. Granted it was the only dish that had any sort of flavor, it was the wrong flavor, and tasted nothing like the dish. Additionally it was cooked with hard tofu instead of soft tofu, completely missing the point of the dish. This place is a half ass attempt of money grab by selling "Chinese food" yet the dishes are barely edible I wouldn't even take it for free. The only decent thing about this place is the interior where they hang like 20 Chinese lanterns and put on dim lighting, probably to hide the shitty the food looks in real lighting. Anyone who gave this place higher than a maybe 2 star had absolutely no experience with real Chinese cuisine and put shame to other Chinese restaurant that does it better for cheaper. read more

I order from here constantly. The food is tasty and the prices are pretty good too. They also have a decent sized restaurant for groups. Some of my favorite dishes: -Hai Pai spicy noodle (comes with pork) -Hai Pai Chicken -Spicy peanut wonton (veggie) AMAZING!! I get it every time -General Tso's -Kung Pao Chicken -Wei's Lo Mein The spicy peanut wontons are definitely my favorite. Cooked well and their peanut sauce is just so good!!! I can't get enough! But their food in general is pretty fantastic! Even my partner, who is very picky when it comes to Chinese food, loves their dishes! read more

I found myself hungry at midnight after a LONG day of walking. I consider myself a lucky coming across Wei's. The ambiance, service and food were all STELLAR. Our waiter was very helpful and recommended the hongshao fish which ended up being our absolute favorite. The fish was cooked perfectly, it melted in my mouth and the sauce was delicious too. I consider myself a spring roll connoisseur. I found myself ordering an additional vegetable spring roll after the first bite of one. The fried dumplings were very tasty too. I'm from DC but Wei's will be on my itinerary each and every time I come to NY. read more

Wei Williamsburg - Seating area - Chinese Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Take out was very subpar. Kung pao chicken had no flavor at all, chicken tasted "old" and was chewy. I had to add a lot of chili crisp to it at home to eat it. I got the $20 pea shoots as well and they were a tough mess in a bowl of way too much liquid. They are one of my fav vegetables but these I just ended up throwing away. I never had them when the leaves were tough it was odd. For dishes $18+ this place was terrible- at least my takeout experience was. read more

Wei Williamsburg - Me , yours truly lol Sipping some sparkling wine while waiting for our Sesame chicken , spicy chicken & steamed vegetables - Chinese Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I wanted to dine at Kings Co Imperial for trendy sit-down Chinese in Williamsburg, only 5 minutes away. There was a wait so I was outvoted, while Wei was mostly empty and looked nice and welcoming. Service was very accommodating, but unfortunately the food was mediocre to decent. Likely due to low turnover, not all the ingredients tasted fresh. Pork Soup Dumplings were too doughy, and felt like they were on the menu for the sake of saying there's XLB, but really an afterthought. Peking Duck with pancakes was also tough and dehydrated, as if left out in the fridge for days. Huge letdown that they would serve this dish, clearly past its prime. The others dishes were good, including Bok Choy with Mushrooms, Hai Pai Ribs Shanghai-style, and Wei's Spicy Chicken with chilis. Of all things, their Fried Rice was a standout dish. It was pretty darn great, and if all their dishes were executed that well, this place would be booming. read more
