    Roast Duck 1/4
    Raia S.

    Really nice staff, chill clean environment, reasonable and diverse menu. My absolute favorite was the turnip cake with duck, which was crispy in on the outside and fluffy on the inside with tasty morsels of crunchy veggies and savory meat, with a nice sweet sauce. The quarter roast duck was very flavorful too, with a yummy crispy skin, lots of cartilage to avoid which is typical but not my favorite. The peking duck often doesn't have this problem but it is a price bump. The egg and corn rice noodle rolls were tasty and came with bok choy, but could have used more flavor and a spicy sauce. Great spot to fuel up on the go.

    Seafood Siu Mai
    Michelle J.

    I eat dim sum all around the world, and this is some of the best I've had today. I ordered the pork siu mai and the seafood one. And it was absolutely delicious. Definitely going back

    Vegetarian so these were a couple of my options. The buns were tasty and the scallion pancakes were great too! Tiny little place with sweet workers :-)

    We've been to several different locations of Nan Xiang before and it is always a favorite. When we…read morediscovered the Koreatown Nan Xiang was right around the corner from our hotel this visit, we made it a priority to visit, and we brought friends who were new to soup dumplings (XLB). 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.

    I'm being an overly harsh critic- this place is honestly great. The service was quick and…read moreattentive. It was a clean restaurant. The food quality and taste was amazing. Just a few things to pick on. 1) cucumber dish was good, but did feel it lacked a bit flavor and spice. Huge portion 2) wine cold chicken, felt like it was nothing special. Definitely had better elsewhere and prob wouldn't order again. Had food remorse and wish I ordered another cold dish 3) pork xiao long bao, soooo flavorful and juicy. Like I felt like I was having soup. I think the skin was a little too thick for my liking. Overall would definitely come back if I was in the area but would seek to come if it wasn't convenient.

Beats the Mountain House one by a lot. I quite liked the dry pot spicy carp although it is pretty spicy. The diced chicken with red chili peppers is super spicy so I'd skip that next time.

I really liked the scallion pancake and eggplant. The pancake wasn't crispy/dry, but rather the exterior was crisp and the inside was still a little soft/fluffy. It's the first time I had a scallion pancake that wasn't just straight dough inside/outside, or so thin that it got crisped out. I really liked this texture profile though. The eggplant was 10/10; the eggplant was cooked well, so tender but not soggy. The sauce was really good too such that it was sufficient spice but not flaming. Would recommended. I enjoyed the cucumber salad and tofu as well, but have had better. Seasoning and prep were good though -- although the tofu was cooked so tender (or maybe was silken tofu to begin with) that the whole table was struggling with carrying it from plate to mouth -- heh. Food came out very quickly; staff were friendly, efficient, and helpful. Decent amount of seating with a cozy vibe. It was a good meal, not my favorite Szechuan spot, but definitely hit the spot.

    A great place to grab some dinner before the show or after since they open until late. You order on…read morethe kiosk and then pick a seat in the back. You can pick any available space to sit. It's quite spacious back there. They will call your number to pick up the food. They have a screen in the back with the order number being called. They have a condiment station with chili oil, soy sauce, sriracha. The chopsticks, forks, spoons are in the drawers. You clean up after yourself when you finish eating since it's self-serve. I like their wonton and beef stew noodle soups. It comes with fresh green vegetables. Very tasty. They have rice rolls. I got the shrimp rice roll. That was very good. It came with fresh green vegetables also, a plus. They also have congee. It has small bits of meat in it, but it's still very good congee base and satisfies cravings. You have to ask for white pepper at the front register. I didn't see it at the condiment station. As a snack or part of the combo, they have egg tarts. That was just ok. I'm too full to also eat that with the meal anyways. For drinks, the HK milk tea, especially the hot one, is very good. I got it without sugar. Their soy milk and iced lemon tea is also very good. Congee or rice roll with a drink is great for breakfast or late meal since they open early 8am and close late midnight in the W40th theater area. Very solid place to grab some food.

    Nice and clean inside with plenty of seating in the back…read more They have dim sum as well as your standard Chinese bbq items like roast duck, roast pork, and cha siu. I guess the prices are normal for NYC... meaning high vs most other places. Having grown up in LA around good dim sum and being lucky enough to try dim sum across Asia I'd say the food here is average.

I was browsing for places with scallion pancakes and I came across this restaurant. I saw they had a scallion pancake beef rook which I'd never seen before. It was fried and crispy on the inside with tender beef on the inside, that was slightly savory slightly sweet. I had the roll on its own, which made for a light meal, but it can also be enjoyed as a large snack. It was a little greasy, which can be expected, but not sure if I'd get it again. I did think it was innovative though. The most impressive thing about the restaurant was actually the space. I came to pick up my food and was surprised to see this beautiful place. The outside is unassuming and nothing special but inside has the aesthetic of an old Shanghai restaurant. It's ornate and slightly quirky. It's also really big, bigger than I expected. Even the bathrooms had traditional Chinese flare with the sliding doors. Definitely worth checking out,

It's also nicely decorated, which makes you feel like you're in China. It's definitely for a younger crowd with how loud this place gets. We had a huge party, so we ordered an array of dishes to share family style. Some of the most memorable dishes were the Mapo Tofu ($13.99), Hutaoli Roast Chicken ($43 for whole), Spicy Pot Potato ($19), Roasted Green Beans ($22), etc. All of the food is good, but definitely pricey. While the food also came out quickly, our drinks came out towards the end of our meal. It's a good spot for big parties as it never got too busy even on a Saturday night. They also have private rooms. The live music was fun, but also made it hard to have conversation.
