    Wet and Sandía cocktail (specials menu)  (back: le club hot cocktail)
    Adam S.

    Redfarm has become a special occasion restaurant for us. While we've never seen them *not busy*, it's also not difficult to find a "day of" reservation. Last night, a Saturday, we came in for an anniversary celebratory dinner at what has become one of our favorite NYC spots: Redfarm has simply elevated Chinese takeout foods and dim sum to an upscale dining experience. This was our third visit overall, and the second to the upper west side location, and we've consistently been provided great food, drinks, and service. Drinks: Le Club hot - spicy cucumber margarita, made balanced and perfectly, hands-down a favorite Wet & Sandia - like a watermelon mojito but made with tequila, a bit on the sweeter side Food: (favorites) Hot & Sour Soup with Shrimp - so, so good. The soup is filled to the brim with mushrooms and hot sour soup goodness, and the broth is full of flavor that you'll be wanting every last drop. Filet mignon and broccoli - an upscale take on beef and broccoli , with meat that is nicely cooked but tender and overall delicious Udon noodles with grilled short ribs - tender, flavorful bone-in short ribs in a hefty portion of delicious udon noodles and vegetables Jumbo shrimp and cashews, XO sauce - also loved this one, portions are large, plenty of cashews and vegetables in a well done light sauce and six jumbo shrimp While you can't go wrong with any of the dumplings, we enjoyed the pan fried pork buns, the pan-fried shrimp, corn, and chive dumplings, and the pork and crab soup dumplings. Of the three, the soup dumplings were our favorite and we'd definitely get them again. Desserts: Ice cream sandwich - while they look small in photos, and have a mundane name, we loved the various ice cream in the dish and all four flavors were well made. Truly delectable. Key lime pie slice - RedFarm sent us this for our celebratory dinner - as normally key lime pie is not on our radar. Served with a scoop of lemon sorbet, this was solid and hit all the right spots. With a cute farmhouse vibe and overall great service from the entire team (they all work together seamlessly) - keep RedFarm on your shortlist when you want Chinese food and want to kick it up a notch. It's not an inexpensive meal by any means, but worth a stop for sure. Added bonus: if you use the inKind app, you can get cash back and/or bonus bucks (through inKind) to spend in inKind restaurants, including RedFarm!

    Roast Duck & Wide Rice Noodles
    Cate T.

    Thought this place was amazing!! Had a cute farm theme and had warm, friendly vibes. Our server was not very engaged with us but there were lots of servers around so it was fine. The food was delicious! The ribs to start and special dumplings (shrimp, corn, and chive) were great. The ribs were a little overdone but had amazing flavor. The wide noodles with duck was also good - the crispy duck was amaziiiiing, but the noodles were a little chopped up. The crispy sweet and sour mango chicken was delicious! I would honestly recommend all the dishes. A little pricy but yummy! Would return.

    Steamed Sea Bass

    So trendy, so bustling, so good! Sat at the bar which I love cause it's so conducive to starting conversations with your neighbors and the bartenders (who were phenomenal!) Took the recommendation of my neighbor and had the Korean rice cake with grilled pork belly which was awesome. The grilled marinated rib steak was absolutely delicious. Loved the Tiger Tail cocktail. You have to order the dumplings! You just have to come here!

    BOMB BOMB BOMBBBB!! This has to be one of the best restaurants in New York. And i'm so disappointed to not have tried it sooner! Red Farm reminds me of another restaurant that is dear to my heart, Birds of a feather. But Red Farm honestly may even top that! It's a cozy restaurant, literally decorated like a little farm. I love the red checkered linen splattered everywhere. The staff are very warm and friendly, and let me say very very attentive, maybe too attentive lol, but I loved it! We ordered a bunch of things, though a lot of things were not available on the menu: pastrami eggrolls, oxtail dumplings, applewood smoked bacon egg fried rice, scallion pancakes, pork belly, and the green beans and brussel sprouts. Everything like I said was BOMB! My favorites had to be the oxtail dumplings and the pork belly was cooked to absolute perfection. All of this was about 150, so not horrible especially if you come with a group. Food comes as it's prepared, but comes out pretty quick. I will say that everything is HOT! Don't burn yourself lol! We had multiple staff come and tell us that the food is hot! Made to order! I will def be back! RedFarm you are now in my heart.

    RedFarm was absolutely amazing! The food was so flavorful and the customer service was just as good. I ordered the ox tail dumplings, ribs, and bacon & egg fried rice - everything was 10/10! I can't wait to come back!

    PacMan Shrimp Dumplings
    Matt H.

    Very good! In a city full of Chinese spots it's always tough to find the best of the best. RedFarm was very good! We had the scallion pancakes, Pac-Man dumplings, sea bass, and rice cake with pork belly. The rice cakes with pork belly and the sea bass were the best of the lot while the rest were good but a bit underwhelming. Our server was trying to upsell us the entire time which we did not enjoy as we kept saying we were good but he was pushing more food on us. Overall though the experience was good and I would come back.

    Korean Rice Cake with Grilled Pork Belly
    Michelle L.

    I saw a show at The Beacon Theatre (2 blocks up) on a Wednesday evening and was looking for somewhere to eat dinner. I wandered in to Red Farm. The hostess said no tables but I was more than welcome to sit at the bar. I ordered the Crispy Oxtail Dumplings off the specials menu to start. The oxtail was wrapped in a wonton wrapper and fried and served with peanut sauce. These were blazing hot and the filling was beefy and tender. Loved the peanut sauce. When it was time to choose an entree I told the bartender I was trying to decide between the Wide Rice Noodles with BBQ'd Duck and the Korean Rice Cake with Grilled Pork Belly. He said the Korean Rice Cake with Grilled Pork Belly is his favorite dish on the menu so that was my choice. This dish had cabbage, pea pods, red bell pepper, tteokguk tteok (flat Korean rice cakes), and the most lovely wok charred pork belly. There was some heat and a touch of sweetness. This was absolutely delicious and one of the better meals I had in the city on this trip. I'd call this Asian fusion or just really delicious food! If you're going to The Beacon Theatre or just hanging out on the UWS Red Farm is an excellent choice. Great service too. Proves my theory the bartender always knows. I'll be back!

    Old fashioned drink
    Fred K.

    It's not your typical Chinese restaurant and make sure not to skip desserts here! This place is packed and can get really loud, just a fair warning. The service is 5 stars all the way. Our server, folks handing out our food, and the manager was so friendly and made our dinner so much more. They have a full bar and they made some good drinks. I enjoyed their old fashioned. Now the food. Make sure to go to their website to see pictures of every dish on their menu. We ordered too much food. From their pastrami egg rolls (really good), soup dumplings for my girl (huge!), pac man dumplings (every dumpling had a mixture with shrimp - important for those that don't like shrimp), soft shell crab, and steamed sea bass, I enjoyed my meal. The only miss was their pork belly and rice cake dish. Meh. I got their chocolate cake and ice cream and probably the best dish of the night was their flan! My goodness. Must have for those that love flan.

    Table outside
    susie K.

    Was super happy to see that this place had a gluten free menu with several dim sum options - - POTSTICKERS!!!! Walked in without a reservation and they had an available table outside - - seemed a little more chill so worked for us. Service was quick and attentive. Cold sake was refreshing. Arugula Mango Salad was delicious but had more tomato than mango. GF potstickers were tasty and the GF shrimp and scallop fried rice was yum. Bathroom is in a hallway in the back of the restaurant. Street parking looks difficult.

    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.

Dish highlights include the shrimp and chive dumplings, beef chow fun, and my personal favorite, the stuffed eggplant. Other items were a little bland, like the turnip cakes and har gow, and the pan fried shrimp noodles were awkwardly plated and made them difficult to eat. I also wish they had rice noodle rolls, which I didnt see on the menu. Really what pushed it to 5 stars to me was the service. We came as a huge group of 20, with a baby and stroller in tow, and they handled everything without so much as a grimace, just an outpouring of helpfulness. They sat half our group at a round table and the other half at a rectangular long table and also helped us navigate dietary restrictions, asking specifically who in the group had those restrictions. The menu is labeled too, so you know which items are vegetarian or gluten free. At one point our helpful server noticed we hadn't really touched that awkwardly plated noodle dish and offered to replace it with another. We didn't take him up on that as I'd find that wasteful but I thought that was so attentive and earned them a generous tip. The space is nice looking, and the food came out very quickly. We also didn't break the bank, even with plenty of drink orders. Dao's is an easy recommendation, especially when you factor in how seamlessly they handled our chaos.

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.
