    Taro cake, Oyster cake, Peanut Noodles

    Traditional fuzhou cuisine. Not my favorite, as we usually go to Fu Zhou Wei Zhong Wei Jia Xiang Fei Wei, but they closed down for COVID. We got their Oyster, Clam, and Jumbo Clam Foo Chow Ho Fun Soup. Also had their peanut noodles, fried taro cake, and oyster cake to pair with it. The Ho Fun Soups are really good and fresh, but it wasn't hot enough when it came out for some reason. I liked the Jumbo Clam one the most but it's up to personal preference. Their peanut noodles are a bit bland. It needs some more sauce and salt. The taro cake was average and the oyster cake didn't really have any oyster pieces and was too greasy. I would only go here again for Ho Fun.

    Wow! This place is still here. It's been open since the late 80s. I rememeber first coming here when I was a kid. The restaurant looked smaller back then and seems to have been renovated in the past years. This is of course that standard typical fujianese cuisine. Bowls of noodle soup, pan fried noodle and dishes over rice. Their peanut butter noodle dish is pretty good and they also have fried taro where most fujianese places don't. This is a cash only spot.

    Menu - the translations are so funny lol

    It's the place my mom always bring me to for fujianese food. So I would always come here when I'm at Chinatown during when I crave fj food. The place is a little hard to spot if esp if you don't really know you way around so look for numbers on the door. The entrance is next to a bigger restaurant and it's at the basement. But it's a pretty popular place so the flow of people will give you a good hint I guess lol. The house special Ho Fun soup is like must try fj food item and what I always get along with some fried stuff like the long dough (which I like to dip in soy sauce or the soup), taro cake or oyster cake. Another classic fj combo is foo chow wonton soup with plain noodle with peanut butter. I don't get it as often because i personally don't like it that much and I tend to crave the Ho Fun soup more. If you don't mind that it's at the basement and he sanitation is somewhat questionable this place offers pretty legit fj food at a pretty cheap price and no tips lol.

    This place is the amazing. They specialize in Fuzhou Dishes and their portions and prices are both absolutely incredible. We paid roughly 20 dollars for a pretty full meal and it was for 3 people! The spareribs with special sauce and the egg noodles with peanut sauce was really good. Honestly, I've been to a number of Chinese restaurants in Manhattan's Chinatown and this truly a gem. The service is good as they actually refill the tea and best of all, they don't charge a stupid tea fee. Will be back for sure.

    This place is excellent. Food was delicious and service was very good and friendly. Very reasonably priced too. We sat in the upper part of the restaurant. Place is nice and clean with reasonably good ambience

    Large platter dish with crab, crunchy jelly fish, bitter melon, fried anchovies, spare ribs w taro, and beef

    Came here with some friends to have dinner. We ordered some dishes that were quite delicious. The lobster with ginger and scallion is one of the best I ever had. The taro cakes are amazing. The prices are very reasonable compare to other similar restaurants. This place (upstair) has free WiFi for customers

    As the name implies, it really is an excellent dumpling house!…read more Me and my buddies were in Jersey and New York for some hockey games, and wanted to go to a deli, get some Chinese food, and a slice of pizza. Got off the E train and when we looked for Chinese food, this place popped up with good reviews and it was just a short walk from where we got off the train. My buddies ordered the special lunches and we also got two types of xlb's, beef chow fun, and some fried dumplings. The special lunches come with a little fried rice, cold garlic flavored noodle, choice of egg drop or hot and sour soup, and main side. My buddies all enjoyed their meals. The beef chow fun was also really good and beef was nice and tender. The xiao long baos were excellent and is comparable to any place in California like DTF. Nice and juicy and great with some ginger, soy sauce, and spicy chili. Friendly service and food comes out pretty quickly. Credit card is accepted. Bathroom was also very clean, which is sometimes rare in some Chinese restaurants I have been to. If you're looking for a good Chinese meal, stop here when you're in the Chelsea area.

Upon entering they informed that they are open late just that certain things aren't on the "open late" menu. Decided to keep it simple. Ordered the scallion pancake and a veggie bun.

I'm a lower middle-class Jersey guy - what the heck do I know about cocktails?  But I dove right into one ("Jade Collins") and it was firing on all cylinders.  Crisp, clean, strong enough to knock over an ox. Then we got a handful of apps - everyone else swore by all the ones they'd had - but I just tried the Salt & Pepper Shrimp and... sweet baby Jesus, this little plate had a wicked amount of flavor from every angle.  "Aggressively seasoned" might be an understatement.  Wild. Onto the mains and I ventured towards their Spicy Drunken Noodle (my go-to whenever I'm hitting a Thai restaurant on my home turf) and... yeah, you probably guessed it - incredible. Not the biggest portion but they made every single component sing with flavor. With so much going on - of course I needed to indulge with another drink (hey, I wasn't driving!). There were six of us, it came to about $100 a person... welcome to NYC. But we did get a wide selection of plates/food and those two drinks accounted for about $40 of my tab. (And you'll never see such a heavy wine pour at a restaurant... they filled the glass almost to the rim - which was not even something I'd do for myself when I'm home.) Definitely recommended.

    Yeah Id say that was a pretty splendid meal. Shared everything thank goodness…read more Started with the wok fried beef dumplings which were good on their own but had this fire ahh spicy honey mustard wow. Then the scallion pancakes which were crispy and airy paired with this very interesting sauce that was clear but tasted like sweet and sour sauce. For mains we got Kung Pao Chicken which was pretty delicious but my star of the show was the Crispy Beef. It was crispy asf and skinny too I didn't know you could make beef skinny like that. Sauce was super tasty and thick. On the side was broccoli which was fine and eggplant which was fine on its own and good with the chili sauce. Split the Fortune Cookie Red Velvet Cake which okay I thought there would be more creativity with adding fortune cookies somewhere in the cake but it was just a cake with fortune cookies on top. Also they put 2 when we had 4 people like lowkey they couldve just put 2 more on there but anyways the cake itself was pretty tasty so can't complain there.

    Philippe Chow is why Yelp exists. You would otherwise never know that this upscale Chinese…read moreRestaurant blasts club music and mandates 20% gratuities. The food is all over the place but the main theme is that everything is over-seasoned to please the crowd of people who all were gulping down colorful sugary cocktails with dinner while wearing athletic clothing. Peking duck (for 4-5) had great accompaniments (rare to actually get bao with it) but it was a lackluster portion of duck. Salt and pepper shrimp were offensively salted. Special "mignon" was great. The hand-pulled noodles *gasp* weren't hand pulled. "BBQ" chicken in the other noodles was very dry. Sea bass portion was very small. Scallion pancakes were good. Shrimp dumplings were the highlight. I recommend skipping this restaurant.

The grilled pork spare ribs was good, but it was too little meat for the price. The scallion pancake was bland. The Peking duck was ok. The pork xiao long bao was bad. The skin broke easily with the included forceps and with chopsticks. It was hard even transferring it to my plate. The mapo tofu was bland. The la zi ji (spicy crispy chicken) was too spicy to eat. I have good spice tolerance, and I always eat la zi ji, but it was just too spicy. This was the only meat dish that was barely touched at the end of the dinner. The best dish was the cumin lamb. It was seasoned well and the lamb was tender. I wish they gave us more lamb though. The meat pieces were small. I've had much better Chinese food in dallas. I would not recommend this Chinese restaurant to anyone.
