This is exactly what you're going to expect when you visit a NYC Chinatown restaurant. It was busy, a little rushed, but we received our food in less than a minute. Get the pan fried pork dumplings. They're cheap, you get 8 of them, they're huge, and they're delicious. The best dumplings I've had from anywhere in the US. read more

I definitely wanted to try some authentic Chinese food while NYC and decided on Deluxe Green Bo. We went on a Saturday afternoon and waited about 15 minutes to be seated. They only take cash or Venmo. We were welcomed with complimentary green tea. I ordered the spring rolls, sesame chicken and shrimp fried rices. I didn't enjoy the spring rolls, the sesame chicken was covered in a thick, red sauce and was ok. The shrimp fried rice was a bit of a let down. It was mushy and wet. The flavor was decent though. The service was fast and friendly. I just wished I'd picked a different restaurant. read more

I don't like leaving negative reviews, especially for Chinatown local businesses, but the service and food at Deluxe Green Bo were really disappointing. I'm not sure if it was just an off day, since my family has enjoyed this spot and recommended it to me. Our experience felt rushed from the start. We were there for less than 30 minutes, with a table still full of food we had barely touched, and the server was already asking if we wanted everything packed up to go. The restaurant wasn't even busy at all. As for the food, I was especially excited to try the pan fried pork buns (生煎包), but they fell short. The bottoms weren't crispy, the wrappers were overly thick, and there was very little filling...definitely not the juicy bite I was expecting. We also ordered the preserved cabbage and pork braised noodle (雪菜肉絲煨麵), which was SO BLAND. Honestly something I feel like I could make better at home. The shanghai kaofu (上海烤麩) appetizer was just okay and quite salty. The only part I really enjoyed in that dish was the bamboo shoots. read more

Went to Deluxe Green Bo on a Saturday with a friend for an early lunch. It is located on Bayard Street, about a five-minute walk from the Canal Street subway. They are cash or Venmo only, no cards accepted. The restaurant is on the smaller side, but there were plenty of tables available, and we sat by the window. As soon as you are seated, they bring over complimentary green tea, which is unlimited. We started with the scallion pancakes, which were very good, crispy and flavorful with a savory dipping sauce. Then we wanted to try a few dumpling options and ordered the boiled pork and leek dumplings as well as the lightly fried pork and scallion dumplings. Between the three dishes, we left feeling full and satisfied. Everything was very good and well-seasoned. Even the dumplings that leaned slightly doughy still had a good balance of filling to wrapper. The service was quick and attentive, and the total bill came to under $30, which was a great value. I would definitely recommend and look forward to returning. read more

This is one of the best spots in Chinatown to get authentic Chinese food for super cheap. Their lunch special lets you pick 3 entrees with soup and rice for $25.95! The Pepper Steak was nice and tender. The General Tsos Chicken was a solid classic option. I also got the Salt & Pepper Pork Chops which were fried lightly and seasoned well. Service is super attentive and food came out 5 minutes after ordering. It's not the biggest place but tables finish up quickly so it's not a long wait. They have 1 bathroom downstairs as well. read more

Deluxe Green Bo was pretty average for me overall. We tried the xiao long bao, and while the service was quick, the food itself did not really stand out. The soup dumplings were smaller than expected, not very flavorful, and honestly not that filling either. They felt like a typical bao you could get at a lot of places without anything memorable about them. Also noticed the restaurant had a B health rating posted, which did make us hesitate a little. Prices were not terrible, and the food came out fast, but with so many dumpling spots nearby, I probably would not come back specifically for the xiao long bao. read more

Ordered DoorDash from here and it was amazing. I got the chicken and broccoli rice bowl and it was exactly what I wanted. A good amount of chicken and broccoli and lots of rice. It definitely felt more like a lunch portion than a dinner portion, but honestly no complaints. It was around $10 and for the price it felt like a great deal. Simple, really good, and super satisfying. I'll definitely be ordering from here again. read more

Deluxe Green Bo was an absolute disappointment and would recommend you go to another restaurant in Chinatown for a good meal!!!!! [Note - You can places I recommend in Chinatown in my Yelp Collection "Explore Chinese Food (5 Stars to 1 Star)."] Ignore Deluxe Green Bo's reviews in the window - which I should have done!!! Often walk past so decided to try it out. Noted afterwards those posted "raves" dates from the '90s. Give me a break! Ordered Chow Fun with Mixed Meat and Shrimp - absolutely muted nominal flavor and mediocre at best!! The majority of the tables were empty, although a few (what appeared to be) tourists entered while I was seated. Nevertheless, when I reached for my cup of tea the waiter rudely tried to take away my food before I had finished. Unbelievable!... had to stop him!!! It wasn't like there were customers waiting to be seated! New York's Chinatown has a number of super cheap as well as reasonably priced world class restaurants. Given that, whether you're a tourist or native New Yorker, my recommendation is walk past Deluxe Green Bo and don't bother checking it out. read more

I went back to get my favorite dumplings at Deluxe Green Bo, and had a great time. They greeted us at the door and we got seated immediately. The small shop still has lots of seating, and the service is excellent. The food was all so delicious. I love how the Fried Tiny Buns are so soft, but I feel like the filling is different! I vaguely remember the filling being more like pulled pork, or at least more generous. I guess we may have gotten lucky last time. The beef lo mein was also delicious. read more

We got some pan fried dumplings, crispy noodles, and the hot and spicy wontons. Everything tasted great!

Came here to get takeout for their trending shengjianbao. The service was really quick, shoutout to the lady in front who for bonus points spoke English though not necessary but nice for tourists. The togo order was assembled really quickly too. Solid spot, and definitely recommend to sit down and get an experience for an authentic chinatown dining experience, but if you're used to eating shengjianbao, I would say that they're good, but nothing I neeeed to run back for. The bottom wasn't super crispy but the dough was fluffy. I wish the meat was more savory/seasoned but there was a nice chive flavor running through it. I see it on a lot of food crawl lists and it def is a spot you can get shengjianbao in Chinatown, though I can't say it's my favorite, but I would def come back to dine and check out the rest of their fare because it is authentic! read more

Price is still good but the portion seems much smaller. Did the shrimp fried rice and it was delicious. And their tofu soup (included) is delicious.

Not an exaggeration these were the best scallion pancakes I've ever had in my life, and I think I've eaten through most of Chinatown. The scallion pancakes are a must get. We also got the subgum stirfry fried rice cakes and soup dumplings. It was plenty of food to share between two people. We both left full and satisfied. The service and ambience were exactly what you could expect from a Chinatown restaurant, quick and easy service, comfortable tables and chairs . This place definitely gets busy! It is super popular and there might be a wait unless you want to wait up to an hour. I probably wouldn't go during peak weekend dinner hours, but I think we only waited a few minutes for a table for an early weekday dinner. Will definitely be back and demolish some more scallion pancakes read more

Walked in, restaurant was packed! the lady took my order and got me my takeout within 7 min I swear! I was so excited and sat down on the side of the street and had to go for the pork XLB which burned my mouth but it was soooo good. Then the "tiny" pan fried buns were crispy on the bottom and so soft and juicy. I must have been enjoying it so much because a black lady who stepped out of her car looked at me and demanded I point her to where she can get the same thing. And I watched her go in and get her takeout bag too! read more

They had the menu outside the restaurant so I kept in mind what I wanted to order. We ordered their soup dumplings which was sooo so so so amazing. You must try if you come to this restaurant!! The staff was also super friendly and kept things running smoothly despite the large number of people everywhere.

We came in on a Friday at about noon and were able to snag one of the last tables. The staff here is super friendly and I saw a few tourists shy away because they seemed intimidated by crowd and possibly because they didn't speak the language but someone immediately went outside to greet them and help them get a table. Fried Pork dumplings (5/5): these were amazing! Perfect flavor and crispiness. A must order! Soup dumplings (3/5): these actually weren't my favorite soup dumplings. I would have rather focused more of the fried dumplings or the Pan fried noodles (5/5): I love pan fried noodles and these were some of the best I've ever had. The flavor was perfect and sauce to noodle ratio was just right so that it makes the noodles just soft enough while retaining some crunch. Overall this was a great stop to get some authentic food in Chinatown read more

Came here because I heard their soup dumplings were good. I was with my young daughter. Unfortunately we weren't able to try the dumplings. There was a minimum of $9 per person in order to sit and eat. It was FREEZING outside so I didn't want to stand outside with my child and try soup dumplings lol sounds messy. There was no way my kid was going to eat an entire order of anything on her own and I didn't want to spend extra money to then have to carry food home. As per the service, every server continuously came up to us every 45 seconds asking if we were ready to order. It was a little overwhelming. More time is needed to review the lengthy menu. ESPECIALLY for those who never been here before. I will come back when I'm with adults. read more

I love soup dumplings and while I do have my favorites (currently Noodle Village wins Chinatown for me), I enjoy trying out other places. The pork/crab soup dumplings here were okay, adequate soup filling/thin wrapper but nothing outstanding, not crabby enough. My partner didn't particularly like them either. I did really love the hot and spicy wontons. I found it to have sweet flavor to it but my partner said they were a little too spicy for her. They were filled well and the wrapper was nice and thin. We also tried the rice cakes with cabbage/pork. They were good. No complaints, basic dish. The restaurant itself is on the smaller side but not hole in the wall small. It's a little hectic and rushed but that's Chinatown for you. I wouldn't be opposed to coming back but not putting it on a "can't wait to go back" list. read more

We also got a the stir fry beef chow fun and a double cooked pork. The noodles were standard but a little skimpy of the portion/beef, but can't complain too much as it was only $13. The double cooked pork is a pass, there were probably 3 pieces of pork in the dish and tofu mixed in. Restaurant is super small and tables are cramped together.

Life is short F......it up! Family, Flavors, Friends Was in New York again for another food crawl stopped into this place because the the line for the pork buns was too long. Sat in the back and got some soup dumplings and a child food noodle. Just keep in mind that it's casually and a minimum of 7 to 8 dollars per head sitting in there . The soup dumplings were good came out fast like to see what draws the people and quick service and good flavor. The child on the other hand was lacking beef chow fun, but they didn't provide too much beef. I would skip next time. Just to mention in case they read, we sat with a family from South Jersey. So if you're reading this hello. Back to the soup dumplings although they were good the dumplings were a little bit delicate as some of them were were easily ripped stuck to the bottom would've expected more, but it was worth a visit. read more

Been going since this restaurant went by the name of New Green Bo. But it's almost exactly the same. The food is great; the service tries hard but can be indifferent; if there isn't a two or a four top available, grab a seat a a community table, cause you can't know when a smaller table will open. And the line can be difficult to manage as you can be pressed up against the register on one side and the folks exiting on the other. And it can snake out the door which makes it difficult to wait in really cold weather. But as i led with - the food is great. Haven't had a bad meal here in the years that I've been going. Not five stars but close. read more

Walked in due lack of late night options and wasn't disappointed! Very homey vibe with yummy food. The stewed beef is a flavorful combo of savory pieces with complimentary pickled greens. Also ordered spicy beef tendon (not pictured). I love these satisfyingly chewy cuts as an appetizer which also lightly used Szechuan peppers as a base. $7 minimum per person! Not my favorite standout place in Chinatown (there's tough competition), but I wouldn't be mad whatsoever if I had to go back. read more

A Chinatown Must‑Visit for Dumpling Lovers…read more I was in New York on a work trip, and my colleague - a proud local - promised to take me to the best dumpling spot in Chinatown. Let me tell you, he did not exaggerate. This place absolutely delivered. The moment we walked in, the atmosphere hit me first: colorful, lively, buzzing with energy in the best way. It's hip without trying too hard, and everything felt clean and well‑kept. Service was lightning fast, too - dishes were coming out almost as quickly as we could order them. Now, the dumplings. Amazing. Truly some of the best I've ever had. Perfectly cooked, packed with flavor, and paired with a savory sauce that made every bite even better. Even the little dipping sauce was delicious. You can tell they take pride in what they serve. A couple of tips for anyone planning a visit: * They're cash‑only, so make sure you come prepared. * Reservations are encouraged - this place is clearly a go‑to spot, and for good reason. If you're in Chinatown and craving dumplings that actually live up to the hype, this restaurant is a must. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in the city!

Some friends recommended this restaurant during a visit to China town…read more First, the service was so fast and efficient. We sat down, ordered and had the food delivered to the table within ten minutes or maybe even less. The soup dumplings were piping hot, huge, and incredibly flavorful. The broth is this interesting chicken stock color but was very juicy. The total for six was $9.75 which wasn't bad at all. The salt and pepper squid was very interesting. I liked the flavor and kept coming back to it. The breading wasn't heavy and fried scallions or garlic on top made the dish. As for the noodles with scallion oil, not too bad. The flavor wasn't too rich, just nice and subtle. I believe for all three dishes the total came out to $50 before tax. At this time, cash is the only accepted form of payment.

It's only cash as of 6/10/2026

I know it's in a very busy area with a lot of tourists, so I won't really dock them on that. I got the Shanghai spring rolls and the pork soup dumplings, and both were very good. The soup dumplings were actually quite large, but the spring rolls are pretty small. Came out to over 20 bucks, which is reasonable but more than it was. A stirfry noodle dish is like $25 now! On that note, it's really nice inside and fun to sit at the "bar" and watch them make the dumplings. A great option if you're in the area and have a craving!

It's a pretty solid lunch spot for during work and this just happened to be a few blocks from my office. I thought this spot would look like a hole-in-the-wall spot, but the space is actually decent with a full dining area. They do have a lunch menu, which is in the last page of the menu. Why they hid it all the way in the back, I have my assumptions and suspicions. I had to get an order of soup dumplings here so I got the Crab Soup Dumplings ($15). The skin is a bit thicker than other spots, but that means the skin ain't going to break on you easily. And do be careful how you bite into it, as the first one I bit into, the soup splattered all over my shirt and pants. Overall tasted great. Soup dumplings was not going to fill me up along, so I got something off of their lunch menu and settled upon Orange Chicken w Brown Rice ($18.50). Chicken was white meat, which is battered and deep fried. It says it was spicy, but it really wasn't. Comes with a vegetable spring roll and a choice of rice, which makes this a pretty decent lunch deal for $20. Menu prices are cash prices. If you pay with a credit card, they will slap a 2% processing fee. Overall, service was pretty decent as well. Would come back again for lunch.

They have individual tables that seat 2 to 4 and they still have the large round traditional tables for large parties or when the restaurant is full to capacity. If you have the chance to sit with other patrons at a large round table, just do it, especially if the other people at the table are Chinese. You can learn a lot and have a fun time. Of course you have to order the pork soup dumplings. They are the best that we've ever eaten. Served piping hot, you get 8 dumplings per serving. Put the dumpling on your spoon and make sure to poke a hole in the dumpling to let out some soup before you bite into it. Otherwise the soup will spray out into your face! My husband and I shared the chicken with black mushrooms and bamboo shoots (#71) and the vegetable lo mien. Both were served piping hot and were delicious. The rest rooms are downstairs, which may be a problem for some people, but the stairs are well-lit with handrails on both sides. The restrooms are modern and bright, but could use a good deep cleaning. I suspect that doesn't happen often enough because this restaurant is always very busy.

There was a wait list to get seated when we arrived but the process was simple and moved quickly, and service was prompt and food came out quickly. We ordered both the standard pork XLB and my faves, the pork and crab ones, as well as pan fried pork dumplings which I was surprised to discover were also full of soup, chicken corn dumplings, and two noodle dishes: rice cake with pork & mustard greens, and pan fried noodles with beef. Servers were conscientious about allergies and very specific about letting us know which items were which, but other than that were largely appropriately hands off. They did ask us, mid-meal, if it would be ok if a service dog were at the next table to ours, which I thought was courteous. (The service dog was adorable and well behaved.) All the food was fab, which we expected. It's nice to come in a group and be able to order more items for a greater variety. The rookies executed well (and thanked us for the instructions on how to eat XLB to avoid getting soup everywhere) and were pleasantly surprised by my longtime favorite, the rice cake and mustard greens. I'll need to remember that the pan fried pork dumplings also have soup, because I really liked the texture of them. Such good food, and as always, better shared with friends.

The food was incredible and made super fresh to order. My favorite was the pan fried buns - they fry the top of the bun instead of the bottom with an amazing crisp. Hot soup is prone to gushing out of the bun, so consume with caution so you avoid burning your tongue. 100% recommend getting those pan fried buns. The soup dumplings were also good, but not as memorable as the pan fried buns (shengjianbao). They do the noodles pretty well as well - the only disappointment was the tofu crab sauce dish that I ordered. The tofu/sauce felt bland and lacked flavor. Despite that, the pan fried buns just rocked it outta the park for me so much I still say it's 5 stars in my book. The interior was also very comfy for dine in - they started using ipads for customers to order from - and the pictures helped a lot in the ordering process.

The vinegar also helps with flavor. Pepper beef stir fry: 1.5/5 this has no beef flavor at all. It's so bland. It tastes only of soy sauce and oyster sauce.

Crab roe noodles: 4/5 this saved the meal for me. Not the best crab noodles I've ever eaten but it's decent compared to everything else.

Beaten egg white, a component of the sauce, was almost raw and when separated from the black beans, runny and unappealing. When I inquired about 'vegetarian delight,' our server suggested creating our own dish. Four sautéed vegetables for $16. I went with bok choy, broccoli, mushrooms and fried tofu. I asked for a flavorful sauce. I believe we got garlic, but it was too subtle, not garlicky enough.. Service is on-the-ball. Ambience is lovely.

Craving an adventure in flavor, my friend and I recently explored the vibrant streets of New York City. After a brisk 5.2-mile walk, we found ourselves in Chinatown, yearning for authentic Chinese cuisine. Our noses led us to Deluxe Green Bo on Bayard Street. At first glance, the restaurant appears to be just another corner Chinese joint. However, the unassuming exterior hides a treasure trove of flavors waiting to be discovered. From the moment we entered, we were welcomed with warm, attentive service. The hot house tea, citrusy with hints of jasmine, was a refreshing start that perfectly cleansed our palates. We ordered a delightful spread that we affectionately dubbed a "cornucopia of Asian delights." The Eggplant with Garlic Sauce (Vegetarian, Spicy) at $12.95 was a standout. This dish reminded me of my time in China, offering a perfect harmony of spicy and garlicky flavors. The Mushroom with Shanghai Cabbage (Vegetarian) at $14.95 featured six plump mushroom caps surrounded by sautéed bok choy, light and fresh. The Shanghai Noodle Soup at $10.95 was a highlight, with handmade thick noodles in a rich broth filled with shrimp, pork, and vibrant vegetables. The Scallion Pancake at $5.75 was enjoyable, especially when dipped in dumpling sauce and hot chili oil, even if it wasn't my top choice. The Classic Soup Dumplings at $9.95 were pure magic, bursting with juicy pork soup. When our feast arrived, it was a food lover's dream. We may have over-ordered, with enough food to feed a small army, but the deliciousness was impossible to resist. The prices were fantastic, and we left with plenty of leftovers to savor later. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Deluxe Green Bo and look forward to returning for another culinary adventure. Deluxe Green Bo 66 Bayard St, New York, NY 10013 (212) 625-2359 read more

This is a terrific little restaurant in Chinatown; just a bit on the divey side, yet (relatively) clean with (relatively) good service and (absolutely!) wonderful food. As others have said, it's not that big, but if you hit them up on the off hours like I do you'll find it virtually deserted and you won't have to wait for nor share a table. Yes, the soup dumplings (they call them "Steamed Crab Meat & Pork Tiny Buns" here) are great. Not orgasmic - I don't get the whole cult rave over soup dumplings as of late, but these are certainly good. Eat them fast or the "soup" will congeal into the equivalent of cold, thick, Thanksgiving gravy. (You'll be wanting that in your gut - not on your spoon!) I much prefer the fried tiny buns with pork, in general. The scallion pancakes are some of the best I've had in C-Town or in Manhattan, period for that matter. Tender, delicate, flaky, and not greasy in the least; this is a great deal for $1.50. What I love best though is the shredded pork & preserved cabbage rice cake. This is a major pile of tasty, filling food!!! Chewy slices of rice cake, mixed with shreds of savory pork and flecks of mustard green-like cabbage. There is a ginger/vinegar/soy dip they give you for the soup dumplings but while this rice cake dish is amazing on its own, if you add a little bit of that dip to it, it will add a whole new dimension to this menu item too. I'm always shocked at its size for a mere $4.50. This is a good cheap place with unusually tasty and exotic offerings. I think they close at midnight though, so get your butt down there before your buzz starts to wear down. read more

Delux Green Bo in Chinatown NYC is a gem for anyone seeking authentic Chinese cuisine. The restaurant exudes a traditional charm that is both inviting and unpretentious. Our meal began with the signature pork and shrimp dumplings, which were a revelation. The dumplings were perfectly steamed, with a delicate wrapper and a flavorful, juicy filling that melted in your mouth. Next, we tried the fried rice, which was expertly prepared with a delightful balance of textures and flavors. The grains were perfectly cooked, not too greasy, and complemented by a generous mix of vegetables and proteins. The steamed spinach was a refreshing accompaniment, offering a light, healthy counterpoint to the other dishes. Delux Green Bo is a must-try for anyone seeking genuine Chinese dumplings and traditional fare in New York City. The combination of high-quality ingredients, skilled preparation, and a warm, authentic atmosphere makes this restaurant stand out in the bustling Chinatown scene. Whether you're a longtime lover of Chinese cuisine or new to the delights of soup dumplings, Delux Green Bo will not disappoint. read more
