Steve L.

I came here on a Saturday around 12:45ish, meeting my brother who was driving in from PA. There were a couple other customers, fairly quiet. The service was prompt, but sometimes had a tough time trying to flag down a server. As we had fairly substantial dinner plans, we opted for a lighter lunch, and ended up splitting: Garlic Cucumber Salad - pretty tasty, but could have used some more garlic. Chinese Yam with Black Vinegar and Wood Ear - we had high hopes for this, and while it was fine - it was kind of bland, needing some more salt at the very least (though the vinegar at the table helped a bit) Braised Beef Noodle Soup (Half Tendon, Half Meat) - solid dish, broth was not too heavy (which was good, considered the rich beef tallow included in the dish). All in all, while not quite wow'ed with the items we did order, I'd be willing to return and try out some other dishes.

Beef Hot Pot
Jada C.

I loved the food very flavorful and not a miss everything tasted great from the beef Scallion Pancakes to their hot pots that was filled eith a lot of great veggies and broth. Service was attentive and quick, definitely A+ for me and the place is very comfortable for all group/party types. Do not miss out and check out video out on socials as well!

Bulgogi
Leia Q.

We tried this place out after taking the kids out on a very cold day. The Pork XLB was perfect for the weather! They make them fresh, the lady was literally making the dumplings in the room while we dined. The bulgogi was a little bit spicier than I'm used to but it was still great. The service was quick and our server was accommodating. Overall satisfied with our experience!

Braised Beef Noodle Soup
Kayla Y.

The restaurant is on a side street so a bit hard to find at first. We came on a weekend and there was no wait which was nice, but it was steaming hot out so I wish they turned on their AC a bit more. The service was friendly and fast with someone coming around frequently to fill our waters. We ordered - chinese yam and earwood mushroom salad 3/5, a bit small and the taste and sauce was thicker and different from the classic garlic and onion - braised beef noodle soup 4/5, hearty but tasted clean. the meat was very tender and the broth was tasty - fried pork chop 3/5 classic but nothing really stood out from it - stir fried cabbage and pork 5/5 my favorite dish here, a bit salty but great with a bowl of rice everything here was pretty good but the prices are a bit steep in my opinion

It is traditional Xiao-long-bao,  and it is real good.

It is a great place to have Chinese food in New York. Food is quickly served, it is tasty and staffs are very nice.

I was very excited of this knock-off-Din-Tai-Fung menu opening in downtown Manhattan. But it was a very underwhelming dinner. *Garlic Cucumber Salad - huge pieces and under seasoned. *Fried Pork Chop - thin, dry... *Wontons in Chili Oil - wonton filling was very dense *Scallion Pancake Wrapped Beef - dry, cold, missing sauce/seasoning *Soybean Dry Noodles (Zhajiangmian) - not loving the noodle type *Braised Beef Noodle Soup (Half Tendon, Half Meat) - lukewarm, not enough flavor (prob waterdown), beef was okay. *Signature Kurobuta Pork XLB - very thin skin i appreciate that but very light on flavor. *Shrimp and Loofah XLB - I was so excited for this as I could only get in Asia, but it was bland. This has such potential. Hope it gets better.

Soup dumplings
Debbie P.

We ate here for a late lunch after the ferry to Statue of Liberty. It was not busy and they were very nice and friendly. The food was amazing! I ordered the bibimbap and it was the best I've ever had! The fresh soup dumplings were really tasty! My husband ordered the hot pot and it was decent and my daughter ordered the chicken fried rice. Everything was really fresh and we'd definitely recommend stopping in there.

Soy Bean Dry Noodles, Sesame Paste Noodles, shrimp soup dumplings

Had the shrimp loofah soup dumplings. I liked how delicate the skin was. Can't believe how quickly it came out-5 to 10 min after ordering. Typically at restaurants it takes 20 minutes to steam. Soybean paste noodles (jia Zhang mein) and peanut butter noodles (they call it sesame noodles) were also tasty. Would enjoy the food more if the service could feel friendlier.

Stir fried Taiwanese Cabbage
Ting W.

The best Chinese restaurant in the downtown Financial District! The environment is very clean, cozy, and welcoming. I highly recommend the stir-fried cabbage and the xiao long bao, they taste incredibly fresh and delicious!

Sitting in the bar area
Arthur H.

It was pretty good and I had a pleasant dining for a quick check on its XLB! As a Din Tai Fung XLB lover, I would give the XLB 9 out of 10. Not greasy and the filling is solid. A bit lacking flavor but it is what it is. Will post an update with more dishes when I have another lunch or to go dinner. The service is good and attentive even it's a busy lunchtime.

Brought some family here recently and we had a pleasant time. The food was good and service was quick and friendly. Some of the standout dishes we had included chicken lo mein and spicy wontons in chili oil. The vibe is pretty lowkey making it a good casual meal in the area.

Stif-fried Black Pepper Beef with Okra Hot and Sour Soup White Rice

My favorite spot for a cozy, simple, yet delicious meal. I ordered the Stir-Fried Black Pepper Beef with Okra ($26) and it is just as flavorful as it sounds, with a hint of sweetness and a peppery finish that lingers in the best way. The hot and sour soup (small, $4.5) is equally comforting, especially if you enjoy a bolder, peppery kick. I've been dreaming about that beef and okra stir-fry since the first time I had it. Not pictured: the soup dumplings, a must try. They're handmade, tender, and easily some of the freshest you'll ever have. Eating in this clean, quiet setting feels like stepping into a soft memory I didn't realize I missed. It's the kind of peace that feels like home, like your grandma has spent all afternoon cooking your favorite dishes, knowing exactly what will make you happy and full.

Soup dumplings! Yum

I was warmly welcomed and encouraged to sit. Food came immediately and was delicious! An easy walk from Battery Park on the way to the World Trade Center (where there aren't as many interesting options). Great place to sit and catch your breath and enjoy a reasonable and delicious lunch.

The lap cheong mala wrap alone is enough reason for me to come back…read more Bolo bao sandwiches seriously need to catch on in NYC, since they're quite common in Hong Kong. This was my first time seeing one with roasted duck though. Just a heads up that the street felt a bit sketchy even though it's near the edge of Chinatown. We were unfortunately harassed by someone outside of the store and ended up giving him a few dollar bills... *Chinese Sausage Mala Wrap $10 ** The lap cheong was spread so evenly throughout that I got some in almost every bite. The mala aioli was quite spicy, but not overpowering or lingering. The crispy shallots added such a nice crunch too which I loved! *Duck Tsangwich $16 I was quite surprised that the roast duck skin stayed crispy! The crackly cookie topping could've been thicker since it was pretty flat. They give you chili oil on the side, but it was already super flavorful with the hoisin sauce. Only thing I wished for was more cucumber and scallion to help balance out the richness.

Love that it's not full on bread but a wrap. It wasn't too heavy & I had it for 2 meals. When it gets busy, be prepared to wait. It is a small hole in the wall so I think they try their best to move it along. Variety of sandwiches to try. There are also drinks and chips to purchase as well.

Even though I had to wait a little longer than expected for my food, the experience was still really enjoyable because of how welcoming and down-to-earth everyone was. The employees were so cool, friendly, and easy to talk to. While I was waiting, I had a chance to talk with some of the staff, and one of them said something that really stood out to me: "We are one big happy family." And honestly, you could feel that energy! Everyone seemed comfortable with each other, and they made me feel comfortable too. Sometimes great customer service is about more than just how quickly your food comes out--it's about how you're treated while you're there. The wait was a little long, but the positive atmosphere, friendly staff, and genuine hospitality definitely made a difference. I appreciate businesses where the employees are down-to-earth and make you feel welcome. Keep that family energy going!

MANHATTAN | LOWER EAST SIDE…read more If you are an empanada lover, Empanada Mama is the motherland! With more than 40 varieties on the menu, every empanada arrives with that perfect golden crunch on the outside and a flavorful, generously stuffed filling on the inside. One is surprisingly filling, but good luck stopping at just one. The menu pulls inspiration from Latin, Colombian, Mexican, Greek, and other global flavors! Beyond empanadas, you will find arepas, soups, salads, Latin-inspired entrées, and plenty of gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian options. And then there are the drinks. We couldn't resist trying the slushy piña colada and the frosty nutcracker, and both were the perfect complement to our meal. Our original plan was to grab takeout and continue exploring the city. Instead, the staff welcomed Brie inside, pointed us toward happy hour specials, and suddenly our quick stop turned into a relaxing meal complete with half-price drinks. No complaints here! Leashed and friendly dogs are welcome indoors when it is not too busy and between the dog friendly atmosphere, incredible food, and endless menu options, it is easy to see why this spot has such a loyal following. Pro tip: Arrive hungry!

In helping him troubleshoot the block, I learned of this amazing take out sushi that is unlike any other take out I've had before. We went for the Joji Box 1 and I wasn't sure what to expect but wow. This little box of goodness rivals some omakases I've had in person. The fish was fresh, and the rice was perfect temperature without falling apart. Even the box felt like it was a high end gift box. Everything is tucked away in this box: chopsticks, napkins, sauce dishes, fresh real wasabi, and even soy sauce from a tiny bottle. What a treat. Also their spicy tuna is easily one of the best I've had in recent years. Just wow.

I'd splurge on it if you want to treat yourself to a good "to go" lunch or dinner. Definitely do so if you have corporate meal allowance. I was always curios about Joji Box but it' s not cheap - so like many I wondered if it was worth it. Eventually took one for the team. The first time I got the omakase box I didn't love having to sauce/wasabi it myself but I think that's just being picky. The last time I got the omaakase box, the omakase chirashi and the maki flight. The omakase box is a good assortment with a shimi, salad, two maki rolls and 10 nigiri. The pieces vary with premium ingredients like kinmedai, ikura, uni, toro, etc. It's costly at $62 but I think you get what you pay for. The chirashi had a variety of sashimi, lots of ikura and plenty of sushi rice. It's very good but for $50 I'd rather kick in more $ for the omakase. Maki Flight is great, $21 for a sampling of their three best rolls. It's 12 pieces total but they're nice size with a good amount of filling. If you're looking to treat yourself for lunch or maybe a nicer dinner takeaway - solid choice. I'm convinced enough that I'll try Joji for real one night.

Wonder's exclusive dishes are made to order in local kitchens" I was in the mood for a Mexican bowl and decided to try Limesalt by Wonder Bay Ridge. There was a nice promo of 20% off $20. I was able to pick from favorites such as burritos, bowls, quesadillas and tacos. I decided to order burrito bowl with guacamole, fresh veggies, sour cream and white rice. I was able to pick hips and corn salsa as a side and Harney and Son's Lemonade for beverage. Here's the recap: 1. Burrito bowl was plentiful, delicious and filling with a generous portion of guacamole, veggies and sour cream. 2. Chips were fresh and loved the corn salsa with a kick. 3. Harney and Son's lemonade: not bad not great just bland but the bottle it was gushed in was cool. This is the second time I ordered from Limesalt and am pretty pleased with the consistency of freshness, options and deliciousness. *review for delivery only

New review: I don't know what's been going on with this…read moreplace as of late but the quality of food they've been serving has gone to the toilet literally. Last few times I've ordered from them especially from places like Burger Baby, Fred's, Tejas and Dabba have been deplorable. The burgers from Burger Baby and Fred's are insanely greasy (same with the Philly cheese steaks from Fred's), like they were literally dropped in a bucket of grease and oil. You can't even get past eating these things because of how gross and nasty they are. Whoever is responsible for serving this nasty slop should be fired for actually serving such poor quality food. The several times I've ordered from Tejas (which is usually the Turkey sandwich) has been awful, the sandwich used to be good but not anymore. They changed up the recipe of the sandwich so the taste is different and not in a good way. And don't get me started on Dabba, good lord is the food awful. I've ordered the chicken tikka roll and Tandoori chicken naan toastie on several occasions thinking maybe it'll be better each time I've ordered it and it was progressively worse. The chicken is so rubbery, they pack on so much sauce and crap that it's literally a greasy and sloppy mess. It literally looks like regurgitated vomit. Wonder seriously needs a overhaul on the quality of food they're serving because it's gone down hill in the past few months and at this point I'm just going to use their delivery service instead to order food from outside of Wonder.
