👍👍 Delicious! I was told this restaurant opened not too long ago and it did not disappoint. The wraps for the Peking duck were so thin and authentic. My only wish is that they give more of the cucumbers and scallions to add into the wrap, but no big deal. The beef ribs in crispy pancakes were AMAZING....

    Delicious! I was told this restaurant opened not too long ago and it did not disappoint. The wraps for the Peking duck were so thin and authentic. My only wish is that they give more of the cucumbers and scallions to add into the wrap, but no big deal. The beef ribs in crispy pancakes were AMAZING. The beef ribs were so tender and highly suggest that as a possible starter. Highly recommend the Peking duck, soup dumplings, chef’s special beef ribs with crispy pancake and lamb skewers, and house special noodles. They also give a complimentary soup when you order the Peking duck. Hopefully I’ll be back! I also recommend making a reservation because it does get busy.

    Food was excellent! Peking duck is definitely one of the best I have tried in the city, and we certainly ordered too many dishes just for two, even a whole duck, and we finished most of it! Unlimited duck soup is the best part, we both had three bowls each. So delicious! Highly recommend this place!

    Really delicious and efficient!! The bubbling sanitizer and the chest for the crispy beef rib/Wellington was cute/curious, but everything really delicious - especially the Peking Duck! Would recommend especially since in addition to the flavours, the staff was also very kind.

    This is very nice place in kips Bay right North of 34 the St. It's a small restaurant but it is clean the chairs are comfortable the atmosphere is very communal. You have round tables with the rotating table too for allowing sharing food. The for came out very quick. The signature nice is the duck 🦆 it was cooked very well tender and juicy. The BBQ beef was also good it was very tender meat. The beef in the pot 🍲 was also flavorful and comforting on a rainy day.

    Incredible flavors! Got the black pepper skewers and the mushroom appetizer (favorite) and am very happy with both. Staff were nice and the restaurant is clean and nice.

    This place is an absolute gem!! Food is amazing, staffs are so friendly, and the price unbeatable for both the quality and quantity!! I’m a hotel concierge and half my job is eating around, and this place I’d recommend in a heartbeat. The very casual atmosphere is almost deceiving for the quality of food and service at this tiny restaurant.

    Soy sauce drunk crab (cold dish) is a must. Combining above-the-standard hospitality at the front of the house with creative dishes from the best of both western and Chinese cuisines, you can tell the owner has put in quite a bit of thought in his place. Give it a try before you have to wait for two months for a seat. This little joint has potential to go for a Michelin star in the future.

    Visited here with a friend during what seemed like a slow lunch for the place. There was only one other large group when we arrived. We ordered the half peking duck, lamb kebabs and vegetable fried noodles. Honestly, this might've been one of the best peking ducks I've had. The duck was flavorful and the meat was juicy. The wrappers were as thin as crepes and for just half a duck, they gave more than enough for 2 people to share. I think I'm a fan of kebabs as the lamb kebabs here were tender and well seasoned. It came as 5 skewers over a small stone grill with 3 pieces on each stick. The vegetable fried noodles were a pretty big portion as well, next time I think I'll try the meat versions of this dish as it felt like something was misssing from the flavor profile...seafood or scallops would've been a great addition. The server was quietly attentive in refilling our water glasses through out our meal. The decor here doesn't really match what's on the menu. It gives off a French bakery vibe, both the exterior and interior. Restrooms are downstairs and have the decor of a flower garden.

    My Chinese friends introduced me to this authentic restaurant and i will be back even if i am normally chinese cuisine is not my 1st choice. It is low key and no thrills (but with nice ambiance), far from tourist traps of Chinatown,but the food + hospitality are beyond wonderful. Also highly instagrammable foaming sanitizer thing! Must try their Peking duck, lamb skewers, chiken pot pie, fried lobster, coffee ice cream dessert (and so much more, I just don't remember dishes names). The back room is perfect for a 10-15 people party.

    Best Peking duck in the city! Love this place, my girlfriend and I eat here a few times a month. The staff is friendly, attentive, and great, they always hook us up with fun extras. Hands down the best duck you’ll get in the city. I always start with a fresh guava juice, which is killer and so fresh. Aside from the duck, the chef’s special beef rib with crispy crust is a MUST. It takes them 10 hours to prepare and it’s worth every minute. My girlfriend is Chinese and while I am not, we both agree this is the best spot in the city for authentic Chinese cuisine. Pics are the chef special beef rib, mushroom appetizer, Peking duck, pork bun, Guava juice. All amazing! Love this place!

    A hidden neighborhood gem. Excellent authentic Chinese restaurant. Great atmosphere, excellent food, and outstanding service. Worth a six star rating. The restaurant is known for the Peking duck, which is excellent. I also love their beef rib with crispy crust, and the shrimp with mustard salad sauce. I have been going to chef Huang for years, always leave with a very happy and full stomach. And the staffs are all so friendly and always make you feel at home. Thank you Chef, Summer and team
