Wow. I just finished eating my food delivery from here and I had to leave a review! It was so authentic and delicious. I ordered the pork liver with peppers over rice, pigs ears and fried tofu. Fried tofu was average but the other two are so delicious that I was reminded of China. I didn't know about this restaurant until door dash but will definitely visit the restaurant in person soon! If you want to try authentic Chinese food, can't go wrong here. I rarely give 5 star review but this one deserves it. read more

Came here for a quick bite after work and couldn't be happier. It's a fast casual place, and most people were ordering for take out. Service was quick and efficient. I had the spicy pig trotter on top of soup noodles, with an added soft boiled egg, and it was everything I wanted on a cold winter day, super flavorful, hearty and fulfilling. The portions are generous, and medium spicy is legit spicy. I will definitely be back, and will bring friends! read more

A spot for quick and tasty lunch. Suuuuper impressed by their stew beef that was tender through and through. Was pretty meh by the noodles and soup tho. The noodles were too mushy and soup didn't have very strong flavors. I'd get the beef on rice instead. Their Shrimp, Pork, Chive dumplings were good. Juicy and thin casing. read more

Stopped by on our way to a show last night. I ordered the hot and sour fish soup noodles and my husband ordered the stir fried chicken with chili paste with noodles. We were warned about spice levels, so I changed my order from medium to mild, and my husband, who has a pretty high spice tolerance, ordered spicy and was sweating during part of the meal. Both of us enjoyed our meals. We got our food within 10 minutes of ordering. I'll definitely think about coming back here with more time the next time I head to a Broadway show. read more

If you're questioning the spicy level to choose, get MILD! I learned my lesson. I thought I could handle medium; the employee telling us led me to believe I could handle medium. NOPE! I spent most of my meal picking out peppers and chili seeds. They gave us some broth to dull the spiciness which helped. The spiciness aside it was a good noodle bowl. There was the right ratio of ingredients. Not too many noodles. Plenty of squid! I look forward to trying other dishes with MILD spiciness! read more

This place is really close to time square so we had to come here so we had to come here since I was craving noodles. I was just a little underwhelmed. The food was so salty, partly attributed by the spicy was, but I could only taste salt. There weren't enough noodles in ratio to the meat and veggies. I had to really search for the noodles. The meat and veggies were ok, other than spicy. The chicken was nice and tender. I mean, the noodles were ok but they didn't do it for me. The service was slow when we went which is ok because there was a long line during lunch hours. It reminded me a little bit of fast food, since they come in these single-use plastic containers (I guess you could reuse them again if you are into sustainability). We just threw them away because we couldn't take them with us. It was incredibly hot to the point of sweltering in the restaurant, since there likely isn't an ac in there. The shop is a little bit underground, so there isn't a lot of air circulation. Overall, the noodles were ok. read more

Their hunan style noodles which encompasses a ton of peppers, was very tasteful. We went with a party of 12 and a lot of us ended up removing most of the peppers. It was our first time so we didn't realize but you can request for less of it. Major issue here was their style of service which was close to nil. They gave my husband the wrong level of spiciness that we had ordered for our sick son and then refused to correct it. Pretty thoughtless and rude. I'm a big stickler for service. Would have highly recommended them if not for the horrible response. read more

This is a great place to stop by for a meal before a Broadway show. I've tried the Chairman Mao's favorite braised pork dry mix noodles, the Hunan style sauteed beef dry mix noodle, and the shrimp+chive+pork dumplings. The prices for the portion size are a little on the expensive side compared to Chinatown pricing but I would consider it a great deal in the area. There is ample seating (order in the back, grab any seat) and a restroom for customers. Service is friendly. read more

So happy to discover this place - What a hidden gem right around Time Square! From the decor to the food, you would definitely be in for a treat! Once you enter through the very low key storefront, you're immediately transcended into a world of relaxation and calm from all the hustle and bustle of the outside world. The majorly wood decor is both simplistic and elegant decor with a very zen vibe. The curvy communal table in the center kinda reminds me of a giant noodle! So many varieties of dishes to choose from! For the main dishes, basically it's a 3 step process where you 1st choose the protein / topping (Ma in Hunan language), then you can choose the style you want to pair with the toppings - dry mix noodle, soup noodle or rice and lastly pick the spice level. Fair warning - Choose careful when it comes to the spice level, Hunan cuisine is known for its spiciness! The extra spicy (aka Hunan Spicy) is only for the brave souls! All the toppings are made to order! You'll definitely taste that wok hay - Uncle Roger would've approved! Lol A lot of the key Ingredients are imported from Hunan - I was especially impressed by the smoked bamboo shoots which has a crunchy texture and a sophisticated deep flavor that comes from a special smoking process and then it sucked up all the flavors from the broth and the stir fried pork. The thick flat noodle is their specialty which apparently requires a length and complicated process to make that can take up to a whole day and night involving grinding the rice and then aging the noodles. These noodles are made from scratch - starting with the special rice imported from Hunan which needs to have the right level of starch content to create that signature smooth and silky texture of bona fide Hunan noodles (the stickier and more starchy rice will yield a more cheung fun like texture). Because of the time and efforts it takes to make these noodles, they're limited everyday. The noodle broth is stewed for loooong time with pork, chicken, and various other bones which gives it a deep and multi-dimensional flavor profile which get absorbed by the noodles. Didn't get a chance to try their non-noodle/rice dishes. But they sure look enticing! read more

They have vegan options! I loved the veggie dumplings- really yummy filling! The thing with veggie dumplings is that they can be hit or miss. Some are bland, but some are really flavorful-- and these are one of the more flavorful ones I've had with mushroom & tofu filling! Would come back just to get more veggie dumplings. I got the hot & sour vegetable noodles. The hot and sour topping was great- nice balance of tang and spicy. The sauce on the noodles itself was a little oily for me. Noodles were yummy & chewy! Overall satisfied with my meal here and happy with the vegan options! I would like to try the hunan tofu. Service was fast and take out was ready as expected! read more

BLUF: it's a little pricey for the portion size, but good tasting and fresh. I went here on a weekday evening looking for a quick, good chinese food meal. It's a small place with a few tables and a counter for eating. The staff was very friendly and helped me make my choice of food. One downside: no eggrolls. Kind of a standard of chinese food, but they don't serve them. They recommend their dumplings instead. Not a big deal, but if you like those crunchy eggrolls don't look for them here. I got a pork and pepper bowl. You have your choice of base (noodles or rice), which is nice. You also pick how spicy you want your food, from mild to very spicy. I picked medium, but the woman at the counter talked me out of it saying their food is spicier than other places and play it safe with mild. Well, no such luck. I really would have liked more heat. I had already gotten back to my hotel, so couldn't just pop back in to get more heat. I'd suggest if you get a takeout that is "mild" that you ask for a little container of chili oil or something to bring with you. That said, the food itself was very good. Fresh tasting and well seasoned. if you don't like spicy, you'd love it. The price is I think a little high, even for midtown area, but in this area I have paid more for less quality. read more

Wow. Was not expecting a very authentic Chinese place near Times Square, in this area. I went twice I think for lunch, both take out. One time I got the spicy hunan beef, the second time I basically got the same but with squid. The sauce is really good, and they give a lot of vegetables and a variety which I like. I think there was celery, bok choy, peppers (long hot pepper and some chilis) and some others in there. The beef was really tasty, although a bit salty, but not enough to make me not like it or give me a bad impression. The sauce seems like it's made with real chili's and it's really spicy. I can handle spice, and this isn't more than I can handle, but the "medium" has me finishing with my nose running and some sweat building on my temples. It's authentic spice and I like that they don't compromise on that. The price point to me is slightly high at $16-$18 for the hunan beef after all is said and done, but they do give a generous portion. There's a counter running down the middle of the take out style restaurant with pretty ample seating, but to me this is more a take and go kind of place. Very authentic southwest Chinese cuisine in an unassuming area for it. If you usually go to Flushing or Mott Street for your Chinese food, give this place a try, it will give both those places a decent run for their money. read more

SERVICE - ordered take out from here so cannot comment too…read moremuch on the service - catered towards a healthier to-go lunch option MENU - build your own plate with a variety of side dishes - vegan/vegetarian options available - slightly pricey FOOD - 5 bounty box (5/10): for my 5 items, i got the gigante beans, sweet potato, spaghetti squash, broccoli, and cabbage slaw. I got the chipotle aioli for my sauce. I really wanted to like the as the concept of minimal ingredients was appealing. However, the entire box felt like it was missing something. It felt like a collection of side dishes that was looking for a main starch to be paired with. Had the box come with a pita bread or a base of grains and greens, I would have been able to better justify the price. Out of the sides, the one I liked the best was the spaghetti squash. The other ones lacked flavor and mostly tasted like salt. WOULD I GO BACK? Likely not.

My cousin recommended this spot, saying it was a great choice if I was looking for something…read morehealthy, and it definitely delivered. The concept is similar to Chipotle, where you build your own meal by choosing a protein, grain, sauce, and toppings. I created a bowl with white rice, caramelized steak, broccoli, and pesto, and paired it with a strawberry mint lemonade. The portion size was enormous--I easily could have stretched it into three meals. Even better, the food tasted just as good as it looked. The pesto added a ton of flavor, and while I usually pair pesto with chicken, it worked surprisingly well with the caramelized steak. The strawberry mint lemonade was also refreshing and complemented the meal perfectly. My only criticism is the lack of seating. There are only a handful of stools and one small table, and every seat was occupied when we visited, so we had to take our food elsewhere to eat. If they had a bit more seating, the experience would have been even better. Overall, this was a delicious, healthy meal with generous portions, and I'd gladly stop by again the next time I'm in the area.

And it doesn't have that dead space on the 2nd floor where though there may have been a place for you to sit, didn't mean that you'd necessarily enjoyed yourself there: Chances were that'd you'd have to hear someone's conversation in person or on the phone, as if you were on the subway. None of that here now with 4, albeit generous, seats facing the window: The expectation now is that during the lunch rush, you're going straight back to your desk or, if it's nice outside, sit outside (so a great use of the car-free section of Broadway). I had the Hot Chicken Plate: It was the special for folks with the SG app so I thought, why not. I picked double quinoa, blackened chicken, sweet potato and everything else you can see in my photo. The warm quinoa and the chicken were fantastic: You know SG is making a play for Chipotle's customers by offering what's basically a rice base with a chicken and salad topping. I was not a fan of the spicy broccoli which I found too salty. If you overload your plate with toppings it will easily go over the Chipotle price point: You'll know what's happening now that you have to enter it all in yourself on one of 3 tablets at the counter that divides the public from the kitchen. Can't wait to see the lunch crowd at the new spot!

Cute and cozy spot; great for a date night or smaller group. The kale arugula salad was delicious; perfect amount of dressing and love that it came chopped. The fried chicken sandwich is a colossal of a sandwich, but didn't love it (gonna try the burger next time). The artichoke dip and shishito peppers were solid and great to share. read more

Menu was expansive, hard to narrow down, but we stuck to the noodle soups. Ordered: Shrimp rolls- delicious! 5 pieces Made to order and came out pipin' hot! Whole seasoned shrimp rolled in a wonton wrapper and fried with tail on. Roasted pork noodle soup- simple broth, but plenty of sliced roasted pork along side ramen noodles with cilantro, scallions, and bean sprouts. Tom Yum Sukhothai noodle soup- suggested by our server. Loved the spicy flavor, but didn't care for the sour/lime base broth. I've had this type of soup before, but it had been awhile. Otherwise it was large bowl, containing plenty of proteins- roasted sliced pork, fish balls, fish cakes, tiny cuts of string beans, bean sprouts, scallions, and cilantro. For dessert, we shared a plate of sweet ripe sliced mangoes with a side of coconut sticky rice. The mangoes were soooo sweet and yummy. The sticky rice could have used a tad more coconut sauce for more intense coconut flavor. Overall , great service, delicious food.

We arrived at 12:45pm and got the last open table for lunch. The service is fast and friendly, our food arrived within 10min of us placing our order. We really enjoyed both dishes we tried, the pad kee mao with beef and pad thai with grilled chicken breast. Good sized portions and very flavorful, the pad thai was especially good compared to other places we have had it. The kee mao was very tasty, I just wanted it to have a bit more spice but that is me being nit picky. The lunch special came with a small fried veggie spring roll and salad (the dressing tasted like honey mustard). Overall a great place for lunch in terms of value, portion and flavor (price depends on which dish and protein you pick ranging from $16-21) and I would go back to try other dishes that aren't on the lunch special menu like their khao soi.

They have oxtail noodles (N10) at this location only at W45th! I happen to see the sign for it…read more It's so delicious. The stewed sauce is so good. Hope it comes to the other locations too. My dish had mostly oxtail tip ends so it's not a lot of meat on them, but the sauce is so flavorful and it's also in the bones. Yummy yum. Overall, I had enough bits of meat with the noodles and noodles leftover. Would I want an all-around meatier thicker cuts for extra? Maybe. I also got extra beef protein on the side for the rest of my noodles for later. That was yummy too. So glad that oxtail is returning to the menu. My friends also tried it and liked it as well. This location has seatings in the back. It gets crowded during prime lunch time, but more available at night. A few tables are blocked off too. They also have a long ledge table parallel to the kitchen to stand and eat quickly. It's a tight space, but it works.

The office manager mentioned they do not use peanuts or treenuts in any of their dishes, which is spectacular. Catering to the Office: - Liang Pi "Cold-Skin Noodles": I've heard of these before, and every local in the office raved about them. After a couple bites, I absolutely see why! I loved these so much, I've been searching where I can get in Arizona! - Spicy Cumin Lamb Burger: A unique combination of flavors, though ultimately this wasn't the item for me. Still fun to try and if you are a lamb fan, I think you'll love. - Spicy & Sour Pork Dumplings: Normally, I'm not one for pork dumplings but tried these. Wow! These have a richness and depth of flavor to them. As I write reviews from my trip a couple weeks ago, I think back to what were the highlights. This was easily one of my favorite catered meals. Great packaging and very enjoyable on the office. Love to visit the location to see the dining experience one day if I'm in the area again. Check this out if you are in Manhattan!

It is the food that feels and taste like home to me. I've enjoyed having people from all boroughs, states, countries, and ages come and delight in the bouncy, flavorful noodles and dishes. Many of my friends in New York have shared this has become one of their favorite spots as well. I once learned that many of the people who work here (at least at the time) were connected through family ties to the restaurant and you get a sense of the care and pride for what is served in this delicious food. The space is unpretentious in how it looks but what is shared in every dish is a gift. Bringing an appetite is a must or you will walk away with one or two meals worth of food, everything I've tried here has been delicious and warms that part of you only comfort food can. I hope you enjoy this restaurant as much as so many of others have, it's a New York treasure

We had ended up getting squeezed in with another couple (that was already eating). The food is good, the noodles are very fresh and they do give a good amount of vegetables in the soup.

If given an option to "squeeze in" next time, I wouldn't, it did make eating very uncomfortable in the tight space.

The roast pork rice bowl looked good from the choices on the menu so decided to select that. For $15 it was a good deal as the roast pork and rice itself was plentiful and filling esp if one is hungry. Definitely had enough sauce which was good. Came with 1/2 egg which was nice. Food order and delivery from GHub was pretty quick esp since there was no specific time just asap (only downside of ordering via an app). However, food did stay warm.

It's pretty spacious so large parties can easily fit as well. Open till 12:30am so it's pretty obvious this spot just slaps. Value, opening hours, ambiance, convenience, all of that adds up to be one of my favorite spots on a New York adventure. Dim Sum Combo A - a little bit of everything makes up this set, perfect for two people to share especially. This really has all the classics including har gow, siu mai, XLB, and egg tarts plus some extra goodies. Will say there are (obviously) better tasting pieces out there but these aren't low quality at all. I've had much worse and each item hit the spot. Choy Sum w/ Oyster Sauce - no green beans so we settled for some other greens and fiber. Nutritious, juicy, healthy, cannot complain here. Crispy Pork Belly - Not a bad price for the amount, great crispy skin on top with the typical balance of fat and meat. This one also hit the spot perfectly, even if not our favorite or best, the price and value cannot be beat while satisfying cravings.
