A great place for lunch, whether business or leisure. It lived up to the hype. The ambience is beautiful from the dining room to even the bathroom. The food was scrumptious and the cocktails were innovative and well balanced. The service was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu , and were able to guide our group on the portions, so we didn't have too many left overs since we were going to be walking around the city after. Must try the chili chicken. read more

I had previously visited Hutong for cocktails and appetizers and loved it. The ambiance is stunning with a dramatic wine lined entrance that feels almost nightclub like, so I was excited to return for dinner. Unfortunately, the dinner experience didn't live up to the expectation. The food itself wasn't bad in fact, most dishes were tasty but the value simply wasn't there. Everything felt significantly overpriced for what was served. We started with shrimp dim sum: three pieces for around $30. They were fine, but nothing memorable or unique that justified the price. Next came the Sichuan chicken pot. While flavorful, the dish seemed to be about 70% Sichuan peppers and spices and only 30% actual chicken, It wasn't even style over substance, and I've had more satisfying versions at much less expensive local Chinese restaurants. We also ordered the seafood fried rice, but there was surprisingly little seafood to be found. The cocktails, on the other hand, were excellent. Creative, well-balanced, and probably the highlight of the evening. Overall, Hutong seems much better suited for drinks, appetizers, and a night out than for a full dinner. The atmosphere is beautiful, the cocktails are strong, but the food portions and quality don't justify the high prices. I also left feeling a bit unsettled stomach-wise, though that may have been specific to me. My recommendation: come for the drinks, enjoy the ambiance, but skip the dinner. read more

We are big fans of Hutong and have dined many times. We first joined for their New Years Eve (NYE) celebration on 12/31/24 and loved it. This review is for the NYE experience on 12/31/25. This feedback was previously provided Hutong directly. Pros- 1. Fun atmosphere 2. Delicious food 3. There was a misunderstanding on one person's branzino, the server was very accommodating on switching it out for a different dish. We really appreciate the care given here. 4. Server communicated throughout the evening on reaching our $175pp credit Cons 1. The table we were seated was too small for 3 people. They ended up bringing a small folding table but it still felt cramped. We asked to be moved but were told they couldn't accommodate. 2. Server was nice but didn't clear plates in a timely manner and overall did not check on us much the second half of the evening. We ended up placing our finished plates on the table next to us as the night went on. I had to ask for the dessert (and flag the server down to get his attention). 3. We asked about champagne for the countdown and the server advised to order from the bar. It seemed odd considering we were seated at a table, but I got up and waited at the bar, where I spoke with Samantha who was very helpful and sorted things out, helping us get champagne for our table. 4. Overall compared to 2024, there was a less of a NYE air to the night. - Music was not great, seemed to be disco/oldies theme the second half of the night. Would have been better to have more variety, more current songs. - We didn't see the live jazz? Last year we loved the disco girl dancers, made it feel like a NYE party. This year it felt like an ordinary night (still fun, just note NYE special). - Dress code - many other patrons were not dressed up, some even extremely casual. Would be nice to enforce a dress code. read more

I had dined at Hutong NYC a few months ago and absolutely loved the experience, which is why I chose it for my birthday dinner. My first visit was amazing, the atmosphere, the beautiful show, everything felt special and memorable. However, this recent experience was very disappointing. I arrived exactly at my 8:00 PM reservation time. About 15 minutes before, I received a call asking if I would be there or if I wanted to push my reservation back. I confirmed I would be there at 8:00 PM. They also asked if my entire party would be present, and I explained that most of my guests would be, but I would be arriving first as the reservation holder. I was told that would be fine and I would be seated. When I arrived at 8:00 PM, I was then told I could not be seated without my full party, which directly contradicted what I was just told on the phone. I had to request a manager and waited about 15 minutes for assistance. During that time, I kept asking why my table wasn't ready if my reservation was for 8:00 PM. I was told they were still preparing it.We were not seated until 8:40 PM--40 minutes after our reservation time. When we were finally seated, the table was not properly set for our full party. Finally once we were seated. There were only 6 chairs for a group of 9 (eventually 10 guests were present). The service felt unprepared from the start. When speaking with the general manager about not having enough seating, I was told that "they can't rush people out" because other guests were still sitting at the table that was supposed to be assigned to us. This was especially frustrating given that I had a confirmed reservation and had already been waiting 40 minutes past my time. We also had only one waiter assigned to a large party, which made service very slow and disorganized. Even though we requested all food be served together since we were sharing appetizers and entrées, dishes came out at different times and the order was confused. We were also repeatedly asked about additional flaming duck orders even after we clearly stated once was enough, as not everyone eats duck. The staff did kindly allow us to bring in and cut our cake and removed the per-person cake fee due to the delays, which I appreciated. However, overall the experience felt very disorganized, with slow service, missing silverware, and a lack of preparation despite the reservation being made two weeks in advance. Unfortunately, I left feeling very disappointed, especially compared to my first visit, which had been so special. I will not be returning. read more

This restaurant offers an upscale Chinese dining experience with Cantonese dim sum. The atmosphere is elegant and quiet, with soft lighting that creates a refined and comfortable setting. The space is well maintained, and even the restrooms are very clean and nicely designed. The staff were friendly and welcoming throughout the meal, but the pacing in general slow, so it's better suited for a relaxed dinner or conversation rather than just a meal experience. It could work well for a business meeting if not in a hurry. One dish that really stood out was the crispy beef pastry with a molten salted egg yolk center. It was extremely crispy and fragrant, and so good that we seriously considered ordering another one. Some of the other dishes, such as the noodles, leaned salty and were not memorable. However, the vegetable dishes were very flavorful and nicely prepared. (Low sodium was requested) Reservation is recommended. read more

The food was fine. The Peking duck (which came with leftover duck afterward) was very good and my favorite, but the wontons (brunch dim sum item), mapo tofu, green beans, steamed sea bass were all good. The fried rice and Dan Dan noodles were okay. The prawns were good, but were more spicy than mala. The portion sizes were so small that it was a bit shocking. Hard to tell from the picture, but it felt like there were 10 green beans in the dish. The dan dan noodles came in a tiny bowl. The steamed sea bass also felt like a bite sized portion, as opposed to the normal whole fish you usually get at Chinese restaurants. I know it's a fine dining place, but it felt a little jarring. I also think it was a bit much that the dim sum portions only had one piece but were ~$10, which is why we didn't get any at bench (I suspect it may be to push people towards their bao and brunch set menu where you get unlimited certain dim sum dishes). read more

If you're looking to have some Northern Chinese/Sichuan-style dishes in a fabulous, upscale art deco setting, then Hutong is an excellent option. Everything about my visit was great. From the attentive service, to the upscale environment, to the very delicious dishes, everything was just perfect. My appetizer was the calamari flowers, which is a spicy dish served cold. It was delicious. It wasn't overly spicy, so I think anyone can enjoy it. Along with that I also had a dumpling dish that was also very tasty. For my main I had the Kung Po Iberico Pork. It's a seasoned pork dish served with apples and cashews mixed in, which really brought the dish alive. That dish was amazing. As a side I had the veggie fried rice, which was also very good. For dessert, the plum sorbet, which was refreshing. I was recently at the flagship Hutong in Hong Kong, and wanted to compare experiences. They are both wonderful upscale environments. I can't recommend Hutong enough. It's a fabulous dining experience that any lover of Chinese cuisine will enjoy. read more

After a morning spent visiting Grand Seiko and Bucherer, my friend and I decided to stop for lunch here--and it proved to be an excellent choice. My dining companion happens to be a preeminent horologist and an enthusiastic gourmand, so expectations were appropriately high. We ordered from the lunch menu and supplemented with a few items from the regular menu. Highlights included the Seared Scallops, Hot & Sour Soup, Sanchen Chicken, and the Ma La Beef Tenderloin, all of which were well-executed and boldly flavored without being heavy-handed. A small but memorable detail: my friend pointed out that the dried chilies in the Sanchen Chicken are meant as aromatics and garnish rather than something diners are expected to eat--after confirming this, it made perfect sense and reflected the kitchen's attention to authentic technique. The happy hour is particularly strong. The Farmer's Negroni was outstanding and easily one of the better cocktail variations I've had recently. While we opted not to order their famous torched Peking Duck, a nearby table did, and it looked spectacular--definitely something to try on a return visit. The setting adds another layer of appeal. The restaurant occupies the former Le Cirque space, which closed in 2017, and the room retains a sense of scale and polish fitting for its Midtown location in the Bloomberg Building at One Beacon Court. This was also the U.S. debut of the Hong Kong-based Aqua Restaurant Group. While the New York location opened in 2019, the Hutong brand itself dates back to Hong Kong in 2003, with an additional outpost in London's Shard. Overall, this is an impressive destination for refined Northern Chinese cuisine with Sichuan influences, excellent cocktails, and a polished atmosphere. Whether for a business lunch, a happy hour drink, or a more indulgent dinner, it's a place well worth revisiting. read more

The interior is nice. Seating has some couch like options which is fun. Service was rough. Not enough staff. Hard to find a person when needed. Very disappointed given the price point. Don't come if you're expecting service to be great. The duck was great. It's $65 for half duck, which is a good amount of food. I did enjoy their Peking/Beijing duck. You can do a whole one for i think $150... and there's a flaming duck option i think. I just wanted to try the basic. Kung pao shrimp is a tiny dish with like 5 medium sized shrimp. Ok flavor. Dim sum variety mix was good but not great. I think there was a lobster dumpling in there that was good though. Wine is crazy overpriced for a limited selection. Not impressed. I would back for the duck but nothing else was worth it. read more

To be honest, you're paying for the nice venue than the food. The dumplings and vegetables weren't any tastier than your favorite local dim sum hole in the wall. The staff was very nice as were the bathrooms. I recommend skipping everything except for the dessert as it was the best part. We got the Treasures which was a little of everything. It was very tasty and cool looking especially the Childhood and ice cream. Don't eat the chocolate coins though because they were old. The tiramisu used cocoa powder and not espresso so it wasn't very good. Their version of a milk tea was very interesting and different with popping boba. The other mocktails were okay. Not crowded at all for a Friday lunch. read more

The Restaurant Week lunch menu is an excellent value at $30. Three of us shared Hot & Sour Soup, Chicken and Scallops ($10 supplement) to start, then Mapo Tofu, Prawns and Sea Bass for mains. Also includes a side, so we had Fried Rice and Beans (2 orders). That's a lot of food for three people and all of it was excellent, especially the sauces. We left stuffed but not bloated, the mark of quality Chinese cuisine. Service was good but it took a long time for the food to arrive, surprising in a Chinese restaurant much less a high end one. From start to finish it took an hour and 45 minutes. We perused the full menu too and would have had a hard time paying those prices for the amount of food but we would definitely come back for Restaurant Week. read more

An upscale chinese establishment with really cool decor, amazing service and unique menu. Honestly, it's a great option if you want upscale asian fusion. I'd take clients or out of towners here for sure! We got a whole variety of dishes and they were all good. The price is a bit high but thought it was fair for nyc. I liked the duck and mushroom dumplings the most! read more

The food felt too expensive for the small portion size. It came out to around $80 for three people, with two main dishes, rice and an appetizer with dessert. The interiors were really fancy art deco vibes, but it didn't really give me the Shanghai vibe that it was going for. The service was very good and attentive, and the milk tea tiramisu dessert was good with the tea on the side. A good fancy place for celebrations! read more

4.5 stars Hutong had been on my list for a while, and I finally made it there for a private dinner event for the industry in which I work. I was thrilled to visit the sleek, modern, and dimly lit restaurant that was once Le Cirque, a stunning fine dining spot that I had been to several times in the past. On my Hutong visit, I was told that I would be joining a corporate group in a private room on the second floor, and I was escorted to the table. Interestingly, the walls separating the group spaces were mostly windows, so you could still see what was happening in the other "rooms". Though ours was one of the smallest of these spots, we still had a good deal of space to store our stuff around our large, round table. Also, though we were not a large group, the staff clearly kept our experience as one of their priorities, because the service was professional and timely. We even had two members of our party with special dietary needs, and they were graciously willing to accommodate them. Our meal began with our choice of red or white wine, and I went with the 2019 Rhys Vineyards Pinot Noir from Anderson Valley, California. It was medium-bodied and fruity, but a bit more acidic than I typically like. However, I still had my fill of it, because the staff was generous with the amount and number of the pours. When it came to the food, the event organizers had ordered a variety of dim sum and larger dishes for us to share. First, there was the Steamed Dim Sum Platter, which was essentially a medley of four kinds of dumplings - Vegetarian Spinach, Lobster Squid-Ink, Rosé Champagne Shrimp, and Seafood, Crab Roe & Crab Meat. Each had a noodle shell that matched the color of the item, so, for instance, the Rosé Champagne Shrimp were a beautiful pink. The lobster one looked less like an enclosed bundle and more like a small lobster roll with chunks of fish poking out of the black noodle wrapped around it. It was definitely messy to eat and not the most flattering during a corporate meal, but I also enjoyed it the most of the four varieties, though all were excellent. We also had some sort of spicy slaw in chili oil, which might have been their Crab and Prawn Salad, but I could not say for sure. It was good, but not for those adverse to spice. Then came the Roasted Peking Duck, which was set on fire tableside to enable us to indulge in the skin when it was still warm and crisp. The bird was sliced thin with each piece having only a marginal layer of fat. Two large platters of the meat and a small plate of skin were accompanied by delicate pancakes, hoisin sauce, and julienned cucumbers. Most of us thought that the elaborate presentation was our last item of the night, but that was far from being true. Instead, an endless parade of additional things started to arrive. First, there was the second preparation of the duck, which was ground, tossed with diced string beans, and served with large leaves of iceberg lettuce. These do-it-yourself wraps were delicious! The cool, crisp greens were a great contrast to the warm, savory duck meat. Then there was the Chili-Fired Lotus Root, which continued the poultry theme by being topped with diced chicken. I love lotus root and their rendition, with its mix of zesty heat and rich chicken, was a tasty version that I adored. Another favorite of mine was the Steamed Chilean Sea Bass with peppers and soy sauce. The fish had no skin and was essentially all white, so it was not the most exciting from a looks perspective, but, boy, was it tasty! The fish was extremely soft and delicate, as if it had been poached. The sauce was bold and memorable. There was also the Red Lantern, a massive bowl of dried, whole chilies covered with deep-fried, spiced soft-shell crab. We steered clear of the peppers, but the shellfish bites were extremely satisfying to a crunchy texture lover like me. The Chef's Fried Rice was another bowl of gigantic proportions. It was vegetarian, so it gave us a break from the proteins, and its addition of finely diced pickled vegetables was an unique twist. Lastly, there were stalks of Kai-lan Chinese broccoli that had been sauteed in garlic and ginger. They were classic, but well-executed. After plates full of the heavenly food, we still found room for spoonfuls of the Hong Kong Milk Tea Tiramisu dessert. While stunning to look at look at, I thought it was a rather bland. It was definitely more milky than it was coffee-infused. In fact, I was not sure if there was even any coffee in it at all, though I did not really detect any strong tea either. However, my lack of interest was perhaps a good thing, since I had already powered through quite the meal! Hutong was elegant and classy fine dining at its best. I was glad that I visited the restaurant for a business meal, since it enabled me to try a bunch of menu items in one sitting. read more

If you don't rate this solid 5, you ordered wrong The duck (extra crispy) is to die for. It is table service fried and sliced. The rest of it comes out pan seared with green beans - eat this second after the sliced duck. The duck comes with pancakes (super thin). Add the hot chili to it which you need to ask for separately- - and you will not stop eating. If you want an alternate ask for the lettuce wraps. I usually do a combo of both. Makes me feel a little healthy?? Highly recommend sitting at the bar. Very comforting and gives off good corporate vibes. Service at the bar is also fantastic. For my old soul, this is a more afternoon / happy hour for me. Some nights (not sure which ones) there is a DJ. It is only in the bar area, the table / restaurant is a completely different side, so you can avoid it if you don't want to listen to a DJ. read more

I came to Hutong for restaurant week this past winter. This restaurant definitely has a presence - dark and swanky. Upscale vibe. Our waiter was not the most present despite the restaurant being about half full. It took forever to order. The Comfortably Numb cocktail was unique, but I'm not sure I'd have it again. My friend got a cocktail that was blue - forgot its name - that was just too alcoholic. It didn't have a lot of depth. Food was better. I'd probably give this spot higher number of stars if the price wasn't so cray. The kung po prawns and sanchen chicken were good. My favorite thing was actually the dessert, the banoffee. read more

Back for mouth numbing tofu! Prices went up but absolutely delicious still. Great tofu and duck. Love the calamari here. It's pretty dark inside but the private rooms are excellent. Where they could improve is the taro with caviar. Massive dish but only two pieces for $24? No value there. Also, the noodles with fresh vegetables had only ONE bean sprout. I would avoid that dish. It took a while for cocktails (15-20 minutes each) but quality was still solid. Overall, good for the tofu, duck, and crab. Avoid the noodles and lotus root at all cost! read more

Most of the food was good to great, especially the fried prawn app: so crisp! I ate maybe seven of them. The beef entree was strong; our son got the kung pao and he liked it. The black pork dumplings weren't my scene: a little mushy. Still, I'd give the food alone maybe 4 stars. The problem: the service is GLACIAL. Reminded me of experiences in socialist/communist countries in Eastern Europe in the 90s. Unbearable slow yet the place was maybe 60% full. You name it: wanna drink? 10-15 minutes. More water? 10-15 minutes. Tea? 10-15 minutes. Mains took a really long time. Wanted to get the check and of course, the waiter was nowhere to be found. And here's the thing: you can get good, authentic Chinese food with better service in Chinatown or Flushing AND pay WAY LESS. Maybe 75% less. Sure, it's clean, it's fancy, and it's Midtown, but not worth it. read more

Shoutouts first go to our waiter Alex who apparently was a newer waiter and he was both friendly and professional bringing out things whenever it was needed. Anyway, I was at this place a while back for their Restaurant Week menu which was OK but decided to go back with some others a couple days ago when I heard about the Bubbles & Bao Brunch which sounded like a much better representation of the food here. For $68 a person (plus tax/tip) or $98 with Free Flowing Flaming Peking Duck, this was night and day by comparison and I would highly recommend it if you're looking to do a fancier brunch though the duck itself isn't particularly necessary (even though it is pretty tasty.) They first brought us a piece each from the six free flow starters where extras can be brought out throughout the meal. My favorite of the vegetarian options was the Truffle Shitake Wild Mushroom Bao/野菌包 which was artfully created complete with a mushroom cap and a bed of fried kale. The flavor was tasty with plenty of mushroom filling and a soft bao. The Vegetarian Spinach Dumplings/翠绿菠菜饺 were also solid with a plump filling and had a good amount of crispness though they were most similar to any of the dumplings from non fancy spots. Least favorite of the vegetarian options but perhaps the most interesting was the Vegetarian Spring Rolls/素菜春卷. Compared to other spots, the outside was much more flaky with it almost having the texture of Bahn Cuon/Vietnamese rice rolls. I liked the texture, but I found it a tad oily without much veggie flavor. Favorite of the non-veg starters was the Xu Xiang Crispy Pork Dumplings/鱼香咸水角. The outside was dark (apparently from charcoal) with I believe edible glitter and the inside had some sweetness and richness from the pork with the whole thing having some chew as it was presumably a sticky rice base. Also tasty was the Hutong Prawn Rolls/海皇脆筒 which was pretty similar to a prawn toast outside of the presentation with a good batter while the shrimp was plump. The Poached Chicken & Black Garlic Spicy Wontons/黑蒜雞肉紅油抄手 were also solid with the wonton skin being thin and the wontons being much more meaty than other spots though there was a distinct lack of spice (which can be easily fixed with their excellent chili oil.) On a side note, I tried the Wagyu Beef Mille-feuille/黑椒和牛酥 which is normally $9. This was tiny but very rich with a soft texture in the middle almost like the inside of a durian puff with the beef being extremely tender with some sweetness and black pepper as well. The Free Flowing Flaming Peking Duck/北京烤鸭 was presented to the table pre-sliced into two portions for the whole duck with us being able to order more whenever we wanted. It of course came with the requisite sides of sliced celery, cucumber, hoisin, and the pancakes of course which were properly thin (unsure if homemade.) By comparison to other places, the duck was very well flavored compared to most but I would say was a bit too fatty with even the crispy skin having too much fat and that was doubly so for many of the meatier pieces. The dish also lacked the tableside presentation from dinner for the flames. Overall, it was tasty but there are some spots I prefer pretty heavily for said dish. For main dishes, I went with the Soft & Silky Chinese Style Scrambled Eggs/香滑炒蛋 where mushroom and shrimp can be added for free and you can also pay $12 more for lobster. The eggs were nicely scrambled with a good silky texture. The shrimp again were plump with plenty of sliced mushrooms. Most people ordered the Ma La Chili Prawns/麻辣虾 with fiery Sichuan peppercorns, garlic, ginger, and julienned Chinese celery. The plump prawns had a good kick to them with the celery adding good crunch. This was solid albeit small but with the unlimited appetizers and duck, this mattered less. The last main was the Kung Po Chicken/宮保鸡 which was very good in terms of texture but had a flaw. The chicken was extremely tender compared to other spots but I found it to be too sweet. The sides were more of an afterthought. The best of the bunch was the Four Season Beans/乾煸四季豆 with French beans sautéed with fresh chili, minced pork & dried baby shrimp. They could have been blistered a bit more but were still solid with plenty of flavor though definitely worse than most good spots. The Bok Choy/蒜香白菜 which was simply wok-tossed with garlic & shredded dried scallop was on the blander end tasting more like a alright Canto dish while the Chef's Fried Rice/師傅炒饭 with vegetarian fried rice with finely diced pickled vegetables had too much of a soy sauce base again and like last time, wasn't particularly tasty. The Bao & Soy Milk/包子和豆浆 was different but good. The "bao" was I believe made from white chocolate with a sesame filling along with something else with some grains on the bottom (I think candied sesame seeds.) The soy milk ice cream was fine and tasty. Out of review space. Go here for brunch. 4.2. read more

Attentive service, delicious food, and cool ambiance. Must order: - Pecking Duck. The skin is so crispy and the meat is juicy.

There's a check in counter with cost check at the entrance. There's a huge bar space to the right but I don't believe that was open for lunch. The dining area is nicely laid out with very high ceilings. Everyone we interacted with was very polite and courteous. The food was delicious and came out timely and not all at once.

I always visit Hutong for happy hour with one of my home girls since she works across the street. FYI 4,5 trains are close by. I would say that we're regulars at this point. I've only sat at the bar but in my opinion, that's where the vibe is! Our bartenders Fernando and Kiki were VIPs for sure! Super friendly, welcoming and keeps great conversation. The manager also came through with the tunessss toward the end of the night! The live music is also always a hit. The food is always on point! The prawn rolls are my favorite but we tried the duck and shrimp fried rice for dinner last night and literally chef's kiss. I'm a saucy girl so of course I threw all the sauces on everything and it really made the dishes pop! The drinks are also very well made. They really put their neck, back and foot in them! My friend got the comfortably numb and Kiki made me a special drink - cucumber, gin and vodka. Very cute, very refreshing! I've been gatekeeping for a while but I'm ready to share my favorite place with yall. I definitely recommend! read more

Ambiance (5/5): The entrance is found in the center of the plaza area, not either side street. The entrance walks into a large reception area, a glass hallway with fine wines on display. The inside feels very high class, expensive, high ceilings, and light vibe clubby background music. Volume is soft so we could hear each other. Service (5/5): We were attended to often and our requests were complied with haste. We never felt rushed. We came to dine during the NYC Restaurant Week 2025. The menu is presented with an ornate traditional artwork cover. I especially liked their house chili oil which we had a second helping of. The dishes have traditional flavors and are also quite spicy relying on spices like Szechuan peppercorn which makes your mouth numb if you haven't had it before. They came out with free steamed dumplings (2 spinach and 2 shrimp). Our group of 9 was given 4 trays! The presentation was beautiful and went well with the table vinegar and homemade chili oil (which we asked for a second helping of!) Scallop soba noodles (+$10) (5/5): The noodles were seasoned in a spicy and super flavorful sauce. The portion size was large! Calamari (4/5): We were warned ahead of time that the dish is served cold. The pieces were chewy and it was covered in a spicy chili oil. I enjoyed the sauce and presentation but it was not like I would continue to eat this dish if more was served to me. Mala Beef Tenderloin ($+18) (4/5): While the cuts of the beef were really tender, I felt like there was not enough vegetables to substantiate the dish. The sauce was good, spicy but not too spicy. Portions were very reasonable for a main entrée. Mapo Tofu (4/5): As expected for the dish. For people who can not tolerate spice, the szechuan peppercorn will make your mouth go numb! My friend who ordered this could not eat more than 4 spoonfuls. I took the rest of the dish home and enjoyed it to the fullest. Chilean Seabass (5/5): Although the presentation of the fish appeared small, the dish was phenonemal. The silky texture cooked to perfection and the sauce was light but there was so much umami to it. Don't sleep on this light but delicious, classic dish. Side of Fried Rice (5/5): I was surprised at how much flavor the fried rice had. Usually I feel like they're made bland but I almost finished the whole bowl! read more

Having been to Hutong NYC before, I decided to have my birthday dinner at the restaurant. I was really looking forward to a great dinner. But maybe I should have gone on an evening other than on a Friday. The room is nicely decorated in modern Chinese accents and warmly lit in blue and grey tones. Walking into the dining room, I was happy to see that the restaurant was full of people. The Peking Duck at Hutong NYC is outstanding and it is served with the duck meat in each slice rather than just the skin. The texture of the crispy skin and the thin slices of duck meat when wrapped in the warm crepes with a light brush of hoisin sauce makes for a wonderful bundle of flavor. If the review were based solely on the Peking Duck, the restaurant would merit a five star rating but the service was nonexistent tonight. After being seated and given menus, it was at least twenty minutes before our food and drink order was taken and another twenty minutes before the drinks arrived. During the meal, we ordered three mains, the empty serving plates just stayed on the table for two which can be quite crowded with food, drinks and condiments, we were never successful in catching the eye of wait or bus staff, the hosts dressed in suits managed to walk by ignoring us. Hosts generally greet or ask how the dinner is, but not even a hello. I had indicated on the reservation that it was a birthday dinner because they ask if it's for a special occasion or a date or other. I mentioned this to our waiter as I was paying the check, he apologized but I assured him that it wasn't his fault. Now to the food, I already mentioned how good the duck is. We started with the dim sum platter which is nicely prepared with silky and gelatinous dumpling wrappers. The steamed bass was very delicate and its flaky white meat was served in a light soy infused broth. Because of the aforementioned problem with service, I decided not to have dessert. read more

Hutong's Summer Restaurant Week menu looked interesting. Jen and I ate lunch there earlier this week. Jen had the prawn, leek, jade hearts and cilantro salad which she found spicy. I chose the poached chicken and black garlic wontons which was flavorful. Both of us had the Kung Po Prawns with Chef's fried rice. I found that both dishes lacked enough seasoning and I should have asked for the salt cellar. Hutong is a lovely restaurant and having been here several times it was an easy choice for Restaurant Week. Our server was efficient and unobtrusive. read more

It's an awesome place to host a business dinner! The private room upstairs is beautiful and the service is top notch. Everyone enjoyed meeting in the bar - cocktails and beers are great! Dinner was spectacular- everyone enjoyed the variety and different items we had (served family style). The Wagyu beef was my favorite! Fabulous evening!! read more

Hutong - Dinner for 12 - Dim Sum Near Me - New York, New York

Order for delivery. Food were too salty and nothing special. Duck was fatty, shrimp roll was way too salty. Veggi Jade was ridiculous small and bad with a $26 price. Overall, nothing was tasty. read more

Classic elevated Chinese restaurant! A Michelin Star restaurant in Hong Kong, However they do not have star here. It's like another version of Mr. Chow here. Very cute and classic interior, while you can see many dinners here from office around the neighborhood. Fine dinning service! Very yummy and cute cocktails! Yummy duck, while they cut the duck in front of you, for the traditional Peking duck and pancakes and they will give you the 2nd dish from the duck meat inside. Price is ok based on the Venue and location here. It's not fair to review bad reviews because of the price point of this place while they forgot this place is not your traditional go-to Chinese food. Good for date night, elegant girls night out, business dinner. read more

I've been coming here for years with my friends as part of an annual Chinese New Year tradition, but this year was somewhat of a letdown. I don't think we'll be back. First off, charging $8 for a bowl of plain white rice--especially when it's dry jasmine rice rather than a fluffy, premium variety--is absurd. I wouldn't mind the upcharge if it were the best grains of rice I'd ever tasted. It was not. Our waiter also forgot to mention that one of the dishes we ordered had run out until we asked about it halfway through our meal. Yet, the item was still added to our bill, and we had to request its removal since we never got it. Here's my issue with this. If you're positioning yourself as an upscale Chinese restaurant, the service should reflect that of the price. If the dish had run out without notifying us earlier, they should have offered something for the inconvenience or, at the very least, been attentive enough to have taken it off our bill without asking. The rest of the food was fine, but portions were small, and the flavors were average. The ratio of dried chili to protein was completely off. Both the spiced chicken and branzino were buried under so many dried chilies that we had to dig to find the food. It's normal, essential in fact, to have dried chilies in these dishes, but not to the point where the dish is mostly chilies with bits of meat. The flaming Peking duck is fun and all, but the slicing was atrocious. The pieces were hacked into uneven, mismatched chunks. We've ordered the duck for years, and this is the first time the quality has noticeably declined. The restaurant has become more smoke and mirrors than anything else. There are many other Chinese restaurants in the city more deserving of patronage. read more

Ambiance is great for a date night, drinks are decent, but only the duck is worth having here. All the other dishes are not authentic and don't taste like what you would expect. Staff does not respect Resy reservations as well (asked for dining area but put in the lounge where it is very loud with music) FOOD: Half Peking Duck (8/10): Very decent Peking duck and comes with an additional serving of the meat stir fried with beans and served with lettuce wraps. There are wayyyy too little pancakes provided though and they upcharge you for refills Spicy radish salad (5/10): Not very flavorful and expensive Dan dan noodles (1/10): This was probably the most disappointing. It's not dan dan noodles, it's boiled noodles with oyster sauce read more

I was here recently for a group dinner. We had a great meal of: Ma Po Tofu, Gai Lan (Chinese broccoli), Chef's fried rice, Red Lantern (deep-fried spiced soft shell crab on a bed of dried chiles), Peking duck, and appetizers: marinated radishes, prawn rolls, and shredded beef. The soft shell crab was exceptional. The restaurant is gorgeous: perfect for a date, dinner meeting, or event. The service is first-class -- friendly and helpful. It is an expensive affair though. read more

The ambiance of the place was beautiful yet masculine with the blue lighting. Service was great, though drinks took a while to come out. The food was tasty and reasonably priced for Hutong's location. Crowd was a bit touristy on the touristy side, but there seemed to be a few Midtown locals spilling in. Check them out! read more
