    Singapore Mei Fun
    Meng Z.

    I was really craving Singapore Mei Fun and stumbled upon this placed. I did take out and I have to say that the Singapore Mei Fun from this place really satisfied my cravings. The dish had a good balance of veggies, pork, and shrimp. Flavoring was good too and portion is on the larger side so I had leftovers for the next day too. The interior design of the restaurant seems nice and would definitely dine in here next time to try out their other dishes.

    Decided to tone it down this time. So sharing a good lunch special spot in midtown. I have dined in before but because of my busy schedule, I opted for take out this time. And no they do not skimp out when you do take out! They packed a good and the flavors are still on point! We ordered: Peppered Steak (first time ordering this dish -- not what I expected. ( first pic)) Shredded Pork with Smoked Beans Curd Complimentary: brown rice Hot and Sour Soup Wonton Soup

    This must be a local favorite! Since I walked it was non-stop in and out orders pick up. It was like every 5min a delivery service pick up. Well, definitely had to try something. Lol The place seem clean and decore was plain, but the service was spot on. I wasn't to hungry, and wanted something light, so I ordered off there vegetarian dishes. I ordered the "Curry Tofu" made to order, and added additional veggies. No wonder they are busy! I drank all the sauce. Lol Will definitely come back and try other dishes when I am back in town!

    I walked by this spot and realized that I never wrote a review for this restaurant. I decided to do takeout for the second time here. They were super busy as it was during a weekday and prime lunch time around Grand Central. They have lunch specials so decided to do that where I got mapo tofu with minced pork. It was alright but pretty messy. I would go back to do takeout again, but get something else.

    Small Chinese restaurant near Grand Central. Half basement location where you step down a little bit. Dated simple decor. Went on a weekday and the place was empty when we arrived, but was about half full when we left. Was hot that day and they had floor fans to help the struggling AC. The restaurant name indicates Hunan or Xiang cuisine, but the menu has a bunch of Szechuan stuff plus some Americanized Chinese food favorites. We stuck to the Hunan/Szechuan part of the menu. Got 3 dishes for the 2 of us. Got the lamb with red peppers, stir fried pork stomach and also stir fried peppers. The food was a little spicy but not super spicy. Definitely has the wok-hay and enough flavors to eat with some rice. Tasted decent, and prices were not bad. The food came out very quickly after ordering. 3.5 stars, round up to 4.

    Broccoli Chicken Lunch Special
    Stephen C.

    Hunan Village will always have a special place in my heart as my absolute go-to lunch option in Manhattan. The lunch specials are always decently priced and infinitely delicious. Service is quick and efficient, which is what I love about it. I've probably tried every dish on the menu, and my favorites are the Kung Pao Chicken and Shredded Beef! The fried rice and wonton soup are also my default choices for the lunch special combo.

    Sesame Chicken (Lunch)
    Dom G.

    Picked up a weekday lunch from here. Ordered ahead so it was straight forward in and out. Food was already resdy when I got there. First time here and ordered the sesame chicken. It came with rice and a little bit of brocolli. Can't complain as pricing was decent for the city. Room for improvement would be smaller chunks of chicken and a tad more brocolli.

    This Hunan spot has quickly become one of my go-to restaurants. They offer a really good selection of dishes, and I love that you can choose your preferred spice level--perfect for when you want that extra heat. The food is consistently fresh, and the vegetable dishes in particular come out in generous portions, which makes sharing easy. The service here is always good, with the staff being friendly and efficient whether you're dining in or picking up. The restaurant itself is small but cozy, with a simple Chinese-style ambiance. Nothing fancy, but it feels authentic and comfortable enough to enjoy a relaxed meal. I often order takeout from here, and it's always a smooth experience. The food travels well, portions stay generous, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. Whether eating in or taking out, it's a solid choice for anyone craving fresh and flavorful Hunan food.

    It was cold and I wanted sometjing spicy to warm me up and Hunan Village delivered. I got the spicy dry pot with the pork, lamb, tofu skin, wood ear mushrooms, and cabbage. The meat was delicious, tender and absorbed a lot of the flavor. Same with the tofu skin which is a nice meat substitute for vegetarians. The cabbage added a nice textural contrast which was great. The flavors were robust, and the medium heat packed a punch. I might go one level lower as in my older age too spicy doesn't agree with me as much. The portion size was generous, making it perfect for sharing or enjoying leftovers. One downside was they forgot my rice and with that level heat, I wanted something to help tame it. Overall, Hunan Village is a great spot for those who love authentic, spicy Chinese food. Highly recommend this dish if you're a fan of bold, comforting flavors!

    My lunch special portion were generous.

    I just passed by and wanted to have quick lunch here. Found and choose this place by yelp's high rate. I was so happy that I choose this by great food and quick service. After all lunch prices were great. I really need to comeback here for dinner with more members to enjoy their food!!!

    House specials section (09/2024)
    Lailah J.

    I used to order from here almost every week when I lived in the area. They specialize in Hunan & Sichuan regional dishes - cuisines known for their spice profiles and heavy flavor - in addition to standard Chinese/Cantonese fare. The spicy dry pot is something I order frequently as it's quite good here and you get to pick your own ingredients from a varied selection of meats & veggies. The fatty beef is great, and they even have exotic duck blood. I recommend ordering from the house specials section for authentic Chinese selections. Some standout dishes are: - Ox tongue & tripe w. spicy peppery sauce appetizer - Smoked tea duck - Mao's red braised pork belly - Green pepper with preserved egg (this is actually a dish with eggplant - spicy, special, and one of my favorites) - Sautéed sour string bean w/ minced pork - Sautéed preserved pork w/ dried string beans (the preserved pork is made in-house) - Jumbo shrimp Hunan style Prices are very reasonable and the lunch specials are a great deal (available 7 days but Sat & Sun are takeout only). The quality has been more inconsistent lately but we still like to eat here when we are in midtown east.

    Double Cooked Pork with Smoked Bean Curd
    Ryan H.

    Must try: Double Cooked Pork w/ Smoked Bean Curd, Mao's Red Braised Pork Belly, Tripe w/ Spicy Peppery Sauce! Why: We had a large group of 9 people for dinner so did family style so we can try various appetizers and entrees. We tried Soup Dumplings, Tripe, Crab Rangoon, and Pork Belly for appetizers. We also each ordered an entree and I really liked the Double Cooled Pork and Braised Pork Belly. We also wanted some veggies so paired the food with Stir Fried String Beans. Overall, each dish was delicious. Notes: With our large group we made reservations ahead of time and they were able to accommodate us upstairs, which felt private since we had an early dinner at 6pm. Service was good and the food came out fairly quickly. We were happy with our selections and enjoyed a fun conversational meal together.

    Spicy Dry Pot (comes with a side of rice)
    Renata G.

    I really love the spicy dry pot here. I've only ordered for delivery - it comes in a large rectangular container. You get to choose your ingredients! And the mild spicy level is perfect for me. Thinking I can handle the next level up too. Recently I got squid, enoki mushrooms, lotus root, wood ear, and mung bean noodles. It's minimum 5 items per order but you can go crazy and do as many items as you want from the list. It comes with a small side of rice. I also tried the hot and sour soup and it was very tasty! I was curious about the chicken ginseng soup too, maybe next time. The delivery is via Doordash. I'd def order from here again!

    I ordered the General Tso's chicken which was highlighted as a favorite on their menu for good…read morereason. It was absolutely delish. The sauce was spicy & you could enjoy the sweetness as well. The chicken always tender and juicy. The broccoli was steamed fresh. The spring rolls we a little over cooked for my liking but had a great flavor. The restaurant is themed but I a very taste way with paper lanterns hanging from the ceilings The staff was responsive and kind. Definitely would come here again.

    I'm a big fan of Cantonese cuisine, so I was excited to try Uncle Lou's! I went on a weekend…read moreevening, and they were PACKED. There was a wait list, tons of reservations, and the whole place was hustling and bustling. The food smelled amazing, and the ambiance was lively and fun overall. We were excited to eat! We were walk-ins, so I appreciated that they were able to get us in. The hostess was running a very tight ship - very "no BS"/no nonsense ... and hey, I get it, it was crazy, but at times it erred a bit unnecessarily rude? It just left me feeling a bit off, but not the end of the world. Food-wise, we tried a lot of different things. The highlight was honestly the scallion pancakes. They were DELISH! Not too doughy, not too dry, and the vinegar dipping sauce was amazing (I know it's just the standard vinegar but dang it's so good). It was a classic really well executed. The steamed pork dumplings were also quite yummy. For our mains, we got the garlic baby bok choy, beef chow fun, and kung pao chicken. The beef chow fun looked amazing and we had heard really good things about it, but unfortunately it was a little dry and lacked flavor... just sort of bland? We ended up pouring some of the vinegar sauce over it, which helped, but I was a little disappointed because it looked so good. The baby bok choy was really loaded it up with garlic chunks and was also yummy and a good portion. It was juicy and had a great texture, but my only note was that it felt like it needed just a little more seasoning or salt? Overall, though, it was good. The kung pao chicken was INTENSE. I knew it'd be spicy, but truthfully it was my first time ever trying it and it was a tad difficult to eat without rice. The chicken thighs had a texture that felt a little gummy to me? I wished the chicken had been a bit more browned too. The peanuts and veggies rocked, but the sauce and chicken were huge misses for us. I typically would never send anything back, but my friend insisted as it was tough to enjoy. They did take our dish from the table... but then a manager brought it back and was a bit condescending towards us saying they didn't do that and everyone knows it's a spicy dish... which, I'm trying to be fair about because he didn't know it was my first time, but it just again felt unnecessarily rude. I hate wasting food, so we kept it and took it home rather than let it go to waste. I just thought the whole interaction was a little strange. Truly - I wasn't really looking to get something for free. We just didn't enjoy the dish and were trying to figure out what our options were and it basically felt like he just came over to make us feel small instead of problem solving together. Weird. I'm always one for second chances so I'm hoping to try it again, but I would highly recommend making a reservation to ensure a calmer experience.

We had to wait for about 10 minutes and got our table for two upstairs. My wife was craving the lobster sticky rice so that's what we came for. We added the rice roll casserole and the mushroom with pea shoot leaves. The food took a few minutes to get to us but was overall ok. Nothing mind blowing but it scratched the itch. The service, however, sucked. They gave us another table's congee which we informed them we didn't order. And after our food arrived, we never saw the waitstaff again, until our check. I couldn't even get a refill on my water. And when the manager gave me my check she pressured me to give them the tips in cash and not charge it. I said fine but truthfully I tipped them more than they deserved.
