    Qishan noodle
    Amy T.

    Chewy, fresh, and authentic noodle!! Unlike chain restaurants, this is the only place in New York where you can experience the true flavors of Xi'an. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

    Went for the grand opening and it's just as good a month later! So reasonably priced and the flavors and portions are crazy. The meat is so tender and the qishan noodles are perfectly sour and spicy. The sandwich is also amazing. The owner is so friendly and makes lots of great recommendations.

    We stumbled upon this spot after looking for a quick bite in Chinatown. The food was fantastic with lots of flavor and generous portion! The man working (possibly the owner?) was so friendly and took the time to go over the menu with us and make recommendations. Would definitely go back!

    Stopped here on our first night to the city for dinner on a Thursday. Made reservations and swung…read morein right around that time. There was a short wait, but from what I could see, a variety of tables here and seating. Not the biggest place, dark, intimate, wood accents and small spotlights over tables. We ordered buns and spicy edamame to start. It seemed like we had just ordered when the food came out. Love that. Buns were incredibly good - a close second to a joint in Chicago we ate at last weekend. Succulent meat, plenty of sauce, and just the usual pillowy bun. The edamame didn't seem spicy at first - then my face melted. Still good but a deep burning spiciness to them as advertised. For my entree I got the beef miso ramen, adding corn and an egg. The corn wasn't just a pile of kernels - but a side slice of a cob. Cool presentation. Beef was good and the broth soothed my soul. Top 10 ramen places I've been - well done.

    Nice spot with a variety of options across ramen and rice don bowls, tonkatsu, beef, salmon and…read moreshrimp. We tried the spicy shrimp (coconut based broth), spicy tonkatsu, and salmon miso ramen. The tonkatsu and salmon were both cooked well - tender and moist. Ramen noodles were thin and well cooked - more al dente. We also tried the karaage which had a thick crispy batter and a sweet glaze, with an optional spicy side sauce for dipping. They had a variety of sake and beer options. The inside is small but turnaround is fairly quick. Lots of two seaters and a large table that we were able to snag after just a few minutes of waiting. There was also bar seating. Pretty dark inside to add to the ambiance for a quick date or catch up with friends. Checked in to the waitlist via Resy because we didn't have a reservation, and it was a short wait. Service was prompt.

It was our first time eating at a Friedman's location. It had a nice diner feel to it, with a mix of booths and tables. The brunch menu has a variety of breakfast items, salads, sandwiches and burgers, starters, and entrees (fish tacos, grain bowl, fried chicken). I like that several of the items are naturally gluten free, and some can be made gluten free by request. We decided to go with three breakfast items from the brunch menu: I got the shakshuka, my sister got the Nova Benny, and we got the lemon ricotta pancakes to share. All 3 dishes were great. The shashuka came with grilled ciabatta, perfect for dipping into the sunny side eggs and tomato sauce. My sister loved that the poached eggs and smoked salmon of the Nova Benny came on top of a crispy potato latke. The pancakes were fluffy and the lemon ricotta and lemon zest elevated their flavor. Our server was friendly and attentive, and he asked us if we had any allergies when he took our order. He came by several times to check on us and refill water. I would return to Friedman's when I'm in the Herald Square area, or check out one of their other locations in the city.

I was impressed by the chunks of pastrami throughout. Very hearty and very delicious! My husband indulged in the Nova Benedict. They packed on the lox. He didn't even finish but found it amazingly delicious. Service was okay. Nothing too spectacular. I almost felt an inconvenience to the server but we didn't have a fussy order nor was it busy (we ordered before the rush). Maybe she was preparing for the rush. Lol either way, it wouldn't stop me from returning.

They have several locations,…read moretimes square, Brooklyn etc. The Brooklyn one has a regular dining table as well instead just the individual slot. Got there around 5:30pm ish, there's a good amount of ppl lining up outside. We waited for a good 30-40min until we actually seated. Once you get in,you ordered via tablet. The guy will handed you all the your order per person per item. Your order can be customized to your preferences of noddle, broth, saltiness, spiciness, extra meat or egg, extra noddle, drinks and desserts. You can also order the package noddle to go. Everything must be paid on the tablet as you are done with your orders Wait until they tell you where to seat as the slots turned green. Once you were seated, make sure you put all your orders on the table. The bamboo screen will slightly lifted, and the person on the other side will take the orders and will come back with your order. If you order a dessert the matcha pudding like me, they will ask you whether you want it together with your dinner or later. If later, all you do is to put the little saucer on top of the sensor which will let them know that I am ready for next item. There's water dispenser along the wall.

    Ichiran Ramen is a famous Japanese ramen chain known for its tonkotsu ramen and unique solo dining…read moresetup. We walked into the Times Square location, which brings the same experience found in Japan, with individual booths, customizable orders, and a streamlined ordering system. The restaurant is designed around efficiency and focus, where the setup lets you enjoy your ramen without distractions. The interior is clean and functional, with the signature booth layout that creates a sense of privacy and concentration on the meal. The main appeal is the consistency of the ramen and the experience itself. We ordered a few bowls and found the tonkotsu broth had the rich, creamy flavor that Ichiran is known for, with a depth that came through clearly in each spoonful. The thin noodles had a good texture that paired well with the soup, and the ability to customize things like noodle firmness, spice level, and toppings made it easy to adjust the bowl to our preference. The chashu was tender and well seasoned, and the egg was cooked to that perfect jammy consistency that added richness to the bowl. The matcha pudding is also a nice addition if you want something sweet after the meal, with a smooth, creamy texture and a balanced matcha flavor that served as a light finish. The individual booths are what make Ichiran stand out compared to most ramen shops. It creates a very different dining experience where the focus is entirely on the food, and we found it worked especially well for a focused meal where you can truly appreciate each component of the bowl. Groups can still sit together by adjusting the dividers, though the solo dining setup is clearly the defining feature of the experience. The ordering process is simple, with kiosks making it easy to customize your meal before being seated, and the staff guide you through the process without any friction. The biggest downside is the price. While the ramen is good and the experience is unique, the cost is noticeably higher than many other ramen options in New York. The portion sizes and overall meal do not always justify the premium, especially if you are comparing it to other high-quality ramen shops in the city. The quality is consistent, but the value feels less competitive given the price point. Ichiran is worth visiting if you specifically want to try the famous Japanese chain and experience the individual booth concept. The ramen is consistent and the atmosphere is memorable, but the higher price makes it more of a one-time experience rather than an everyday ramen spot. It offers a distinct, focused way to enjoy a bowl of ramen, and for those curious about the brand, it delivers exactly what it promises.

    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.

    We started out in Chelsea, aiming for Chinatown. The bus was twenty minutes off. "Is it worth…read morewaiting?" I asked T. "We can go someplace else." "How 'bout there?" he responded pointing to Excellent Dumpling House. It was directly across the street. I pulled up Yelp, saw good reviews and readily agreed. At 3:30, the restaurant was empty. There were a few takeout orders, but we were the only people sitting down for late lunch. And y'know ... it was pretty good. Wonton soup is what I'd expect in Chinatown. Wonton wrappers were thin -- my preference -- the stuffing delicious and the broth flavorful. They were generous with the beef in our chow fun. Good, but the noodles needed a jolt. So I asked for soy sauce which was sort of a solution. Shrimp with vegetables was great. A lot of shrimp, too. There are lunchtime specials on weekdays, reasonable prices, and nice people work there. Next time it makes sense to try dumplings since it is, after all a dumpling house.

I found the space clean, thoughtfully designed, and with a cozy cafe feel that made it worth lingering in rather than just stopping through. I ordered the combo set, which comes with miso soup, two onigiri, and a set of sides that included tamago. The karaage onigiri is the move here. The filling was satisfying and the flavors were well balanced in a way that made it easy to see why it keeps coming up as a favorite. Individual onigiri are priced in the four to six dollar range, which makes ordering a few to try different fillings a low risk decision. The miso soup that came with the combo was comforting and rounded out the meal without feeling like an afterthought. The unagi onigiri in the combo was where I would pump the brakes. It was good, though I felt it was a little heavier on the rice. The mentaiko and mayo is another strong option if you want something with a bit more richness, and the tuna yuzu is worth keeping in mind for a lighter, brighter pick. Kinoko with five types of Japanese mushroom and scallion is a solid choice if you want something on the vegetarian side that does not feel like a compromise. The cafe fills up and popular fillings sell out, so arriving earlier gives you the best shot at getting your first choice across the board.
