    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.

    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 wandered over here after visiting the Empire State Building; it was only a five minute walk away! We went after watching the sunset, so around 8-ish, and were pleasantly surprised we didn't have to wait for a table. The atmosphere was bright and lively, but not too much to bring our seven-year-old. We ordered: PORK DUMPLINGS-- best thing we ordered. My. Goodness. The broth was perfectly seasoned and silky. Was always a little sad after the last bit of soup from each dumpling was slurped. ;) Meat inside was tender and flavorful and the wrapper wasn't too thin or thick. Just the right thickness to keep the soup inside until you were ready, but not so thick that it was too chewy or distracting from the contents. Also ordered, the SPICY BEEF DUMPLINGS as recommended by our server. They were yummy. Tasty soup and beef had a deeper flavor. Not too spicy. Next time, we will probably just order extra pork dumplings or try something new. We ordered the SCALLION PANCAKES. I prefer my scallion pancakes thinner. These were a lot like the thickness of a dense pita. Still enjoyed them-- still a nice texture that was both soft and crispy, perfectly greasy, and flavorful. CRISPY CHILI CHICKEN (or something like that) was good but nothing special. Had some heat but not too spicy. CUCUMBER SALAD-- was a nice cold addition to the meal. Loved the sesame oil, just wish there was more, as well as more flavor. We ended up pouring a little soy sauce on top and that helped. I thought it was nice to chase a bite of crispy chili chicken with a bite of cucumber. WHITE RICE-- we ordered three orders of rice that was perfectly prepared, but way too much for three adults. Not complaining, but each bowl would have probably been enough for two adults. Can't wait to return!

The wrappers were thin and delicate, the broth was rich and full of flavor, and you can really taste the quality of the all-natural ingredients.

If you've only had the traditional savory Fantuan, do yourself a favor and try the sweet one too--it's a unique treat that's hard to find. Whether you're a longtime fan of soup dumplings or trying Nan Xiang for the first time, this place is definitely worth a visit. I'll be back again soon!

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.

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.

I won't point out any particular dish as being awful or exceptional, because that's the problem I have with this place overall. Nothing stands out in any sort of way. Everything here kind of just tastes the same, which bothers me because the flavor profile of these dishes should all be tasting vastly different. Most of the dishes carry this overwhelmingly strong oil taste, especially in their fried meats, that kind of just makes them all taste kind of mediocre. The typical Dim Sum dishes, while serviceable, just kind of feels rushed flavor wise with little care put into them, leading them to taste kind of like nothing. The only dish that I would actively order is their noodle, which carries a more distinct light yet rich flavor that complements their noodles, but even then I feel as though the meat and egg feel like afterthoughts in the dish that don't really add to it in any way. The last problem I have with this place is their sauce station, which though kind of them to offer quite a few sauces to add to your dim sum, is just a really messy and unsanitary area which threw off my meal. I wanted to like this place, given that I love eating dim sum, but this wasn't it for me.

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.
