Food is awesome. Service is way below average. Extremely long wait. The waiter seems to be running the entire restaurant by himself alone and seems to be having a nerve breakdown at some point as I saw him yell at someone who was asking for when food would arrive. He asked us for what we ordered again 40min after we placed our order with him. First dish came 30min after… Still food is very good. But management of the restaurant is a disaster!

Very exotic Xinjiang Food. As a New Yorker grows up in Xinjiang, China, I highly recommend Xinjiang Noodle with Vegetable, Braised Chicken with Potato Xinjiang Style, Kao Bao Zi and Kao Nang.

This is perhaps one of the most underrated restaurants in Hell’s Kitchen. It’s hard to find good Chinese options in Midtown, especially in this particular part of midtown, where a ton of restaurants are just tourist traps. Background: I came in a group of 10. We are all Chinese and thus obviously wanted an authentic Chinese experience. First sign of being a good Chinese restaurant — there is a huge private room in the back with a large round table that fit our entire group! Second, the menu offers a wide range of dishes that are only fully interpretable if you know Chinese. We ordered a bunch of Sichuan dishes along with a few Shanghainese and Xinjiang appetizers. Everything was very tasty! The appetizers were particularly popular at our table. We must have gotten at least 9 platters of various types of Chinese breads. The bill ended up being $ 190 before tip(couldn’t have asked for a better deal!), and we were stuffed. Overall, this is a very solid authentic Chinese restaurant, and I highly recommend it!

Food is ok. Service is HORRIBLE! We waited for more than an hour for our baked naan, only to be told that they had run out of the dough and they had to start from scratch. While we were eating, one waitress stopped serving and started having dinner with her friends. While they sat down later than we did, they got all of their dishes way earlier than ours.

Service was horrible ! Only in person spoke English and then she took the wrong order and then came back and pointed a finger a me in front of all the customers and said ‘you order wrong’ WOW! The other help delivered wrong food to our table and then another table who sat after use got their food before us. Then I heard the waitress out in our order again.

I’ve gone to this restaurant 3 times this year and it has never disappointed me. In my opinion, it is one of the best and most authentic Sichuan places in NYC, and I’ve eaten at many of them as well as restaurants in Chengdu, Sichuan. Their fish, noodles, and pig’s feet are so good.

Waited 20 something minutes for just 4 fried buns Time aside, I understand some food needs time to prepare freshly. But for over $ 7(after tax, even for takeout!), this is a little steep even for Hell’s Kitchen area. Overall not bad, but for me, not worth the price.

Basically, the 生煎包(Shanghai pan fried dumplings) are really good, probably the best you will find in New York, but don’t come here for other Shanghainese food. I also ordered 红烧肉(braised pork belly), and it was awful. The meat was not tender, the chestnuts were hard, and the dish/sauce had no trace of a reddish tinge. I heard another person order it and almost felt like it was my duty to stop them. Next time I will try the crab soup dumplings and western Chinese/Sichuan dishes. Service was polite and attentive, unlike other reviewers’ experiences. One note: the pan fried dumplings take 20 minutes to make, but it is worth the wait. So hard to find good Shanghainese cuisine in this city…

The short hair waitress she is just fucking so rude ! I would not go back if she still works there. I like food there. But just feel bad to watch her face.

These people left a menu in my apartment building so I thought why not let me try it out. The menu clearly states that it is a minimum of $ 10 for delivery, the women on the phone taking my order said it was $ 15 and wanted me to order more which I refused and quoted the menu. She seemed upset which was my first red flag. I ordered guizhou spicy chicken from the lunch menu. The order took over an hour to get here and was cold upon arrival. The quantity was barely enough food for one person. The lunch special came with a hot and sour soup but they gave me a miso soup type thing with two small pieces of tofu. Worst Chinese delivery I have ever experienced.

Great Chinese traditional foods in midtown Manhattan! It is good to dine alone or meet a small group of friends. Worth taking a try.

The shorthair waitress never smiles, looked very unfriendly. Services were poor. Wuhan Dry Noodle was very good but extremely spicy! Shanghai Xiao Yang pan fried soup dumplings is a must-try but it is made by order usually takes at least 20 minutes if you don’t mind the long wait

We went there yesterday for dinner. It was my birthday yesterday but I didn’t really have a good experience there. The food is ok, not bad, not good either. We ordered cashew shrimp, stir fried green pepper beef, veggie combo and spicy chicken. Had better Chinese cuisine but they are not bad. The portion is kind of small, especially for the beef, there are just several stripes, negatively different from the stir fried beef I had in any Chinese restaurant. The staff is not really friendly though. That’s why I feel I would never go there again.

Unfortunately, I think this might have been the worst Chinese meals I’ve ever had. We received dim sum/veggie dumplings that were raw on the underside. Know what bread dough looks and tastes like uncooked? Stringy, white, not pleasant? Yes… that. We also ordered green beans. They, unlike the dumplings, were edible. Not too much more than edible, but they could be consumed. We had a veggie soup too. That was passable, particular in relative merit to the other dishes. The issue with the unintentionally raw dumplings is that they stuck to my mouth and left this amazingly disgusting taste, such that I went to use mouth wash, which kind of helped but I was still stuck with it for a while(perhaps that says something about my mouthwash). I called the restaurant and they offered to take my name down and give me free dumplings next time. However, the meal was so ridiculously off-putting that it’s hard to imagine the level of starvation I’d have to actually take them up on that. This is the first time I’ve logged in to Unilocal as a reviewer either ever, or at least in years. I did it because I felt strongly about this restaurant. (Note: this was a delivery via Seamless, who were wonderful about the whole thing).

Awesome staff at China Green. They are super helpful in guiding new comers, and are so sweet and friendly!!! I’ve had my fair share of Chinese food, and they’ve made it onto my top 10 list. So, let’s get right into what we ordered: 1) pork soup dumplings: have that ‘bao’ soft, bready texture to it that makes it different than that of Joe’s and Din Tai Fung. Plus, they’re bigger. Really good. 2) pork Shaomai: aaaaaaamazing. So soft, it melted in our mouths 3) i think it was the chongqing spicy noodle: i didnt try it, but my friends loved this dish and said it had just tje right kick in it 4) braised bak choy with fresh mushroom: i liked how they cut up the bak choy into small pieces. Very tasty. 5) braised beef short ribs sichuan style: also didn’t get to try this, but the guys I was with devoured it. It came plattered with some corn. I really liked this place, and will definitely be back again! Esp bc they were sold out of their pan fried soup dumplings that everyone seems to rave about.

We came here on a Friday night for dinner. There was no waiting line so we directly got seated. But I feel there were not enough waiters in the restaurant. Services were always in a hurry and did not recommend much about their menu. Vegetables came in small portion but I think they are just right for two people. Definitely recommend Beijing roast duck– comparable to the one in Peking Duck House in downtown. Very authentic! In general, awesome food, need-to-improve services.

I live in the area and have definitely spent in the THOUSANDS of dollars at this place. Yes, thats cray I know. But its my go to spot for authentic Chinese in my area. This place has really authentic food compared to most spots in the area and in Manhattan. It runs the gamut in terms of regional items from China, but they use the right ingredients. I lived in China for 3 years and I sincerely miss the food. The best food I have had are ‘musts’… they are: — Pretty decent soup dumplings — «Shanghai Xiao Yang Pan Fried Soup Dumplings» are really a treat… very signature eastern Chinese dish. — Their GongBaoJiDing is very good with sweet potatoes…(Kung Pao Chicken) — I LOVE their Chengdu beef when they have it in. The beef is really a nice consistency and is very different from what you might expect. I love that the dish has Lotus Root in it. — Excellent«Dry Bean Curd with Garlic Shoots» is one of my favorites… it has a nice smokiness and ‘meatiness’ to it but its tofu. Very euthentic and a must try. — Exellent ‘Lamb with Cumin Flavor’ captures the flavors of the Xinjiang province and the food carts of Beijing… which I miss… I do not think you can go wrong with this restaurant, whether you go there or if you get delivery. I have never been to the restaurant but have eaten their delicious food so many times. If you are in the area and want something authentic and Chinese, go here!

This used to be the Grand Sichuan that I really liked, both dine-in and seamless. It was shut down for about 1 – 2 months and reopened earlier this year. The décor and the menu are about the same as they were before, but the taste of the food has sunk so bad that I have no choice but to rate it a 1 star. Extremely salty, poor quality, badly plated… I was pretty shocked that they would make food this bad! There’s 2 – 3 other Chinese restaurants within 5 minute walking distance, and they are definitely much better than china green… so they won’t be seeing me again for sure.

The food is good here, but the service is so bad it ruined my whole meal here. I tried this place out for lunch. I arrived at the restaurant and the sign indicated it was«Closed» while it was actually open; I should have taken this as an omen of the bad service to come. Next came the Dumpling Disaster. I ordered a half order of the soup dumplings, but received a full order. Not only did the waiter tell me to not eat them and wait(a minute, while he sorted out the mess), but he returned and told me I had to pay for the full order!!! I was livid, but eventually they apologized and comped me the half. Worse yet: my entrée came but it wasn’t what I ordered. I ate it anyway. The only other occupied table at the restaurant was experiencing similar hiccups, and at one point, the nearby patron leaned over and told me that she, too, had experienced a similar dumpling disaster. Trying to pay the bill and leave took 20 minutes. Upon exiting, the server/host was nice enough to tell me that they were«extremely busy» that day(two occupied tables, three customers total over 90 minutes). That said, the food has potential as being one of the best Szechuan or Chinese places in the area(viable competition doesn’t really exist in HK). I look forward to trying them again in a few months once they’ve ironed the service kinks out!
