The panna cotta Pop Rocks dessert is kind of insanely delicious.
David ShapiroDecember 30, 2012
Twin Peaks. There's a picture of Laura Palmer in the bathroom and the bathroom floor tile is from the black lodge. Awesome. Also, the food will destroy you. In a good way.

You can't go wrong with anything you order. Come with a group and order a lot. Broccoli beef brisket and cumin lamb ribs!
Village VoiceSeptember 27, 2013
Get your spicy on with kung pao pastrami and the ma po tofu. You're going to need to order many, many beers for these meals!
Helena WongAugust 2, 2013
Worth the hype! Generous portions so come with 2-4 ppl. Kale salad & Pork Eel Celery dumplings oozed with spice tang and fresh ingredients
Natalie SuarezJune 4, 2012
Trice cooked bacon is not normal!! Also suggest the chicken wins. Best ever and super spicy!! They give you free beer while you wait which is a plus! Crappy beer but hey, I'm not complaining.
Leah HammerschlagJanuary 22, 2015
Brisket beef &brocc, lamb ribs are awesome. The pizza was DELISH. great drinks, very cool decor and beats. Will be returning.
Kathryn YuJune 6, 2012
Thrice cooked bacon with rice cakes, tofu skin, bitter melon and chili oil. Not for the faint of heart or small of stomach, but absolutely delicious and incredibly spicy.
Ronald CattrysseJune 1, 2017
The chicken might be famous but it being so spicy, has more to do with the hype. Go for the beef jerky fried rice, mapo tofu slightly overrated. Overall chill spot, you'll enjoy.
Colin BrownApril 5, 2015
There is a bar downstairs in the back while you wait for your table. Drinks are pretty pricey but the Old Fashioned is worth it!
Jack GashiDecember 9, 2015
Dope food, cool vibe. Where else can you get delectable pork and a personal pizza?
LilyMarch 14, 2015
Tom Khallins will be in my dreams for months. Do not leave without Mapo Tofu, wings, black bean clams with squid ink naan.
Jimmy ZhuJuly 22, 2012
If you're waiting for your table (and chances are that you'll be waiting a while), stand by the dining entrance where there's free beer and free hot wings (sometimes)

While it may not be completely authentic Chinese, we guarantee you’ll love some of the funky remixes here, like Kung Pao Pastrami. Chew on that!
Alice EunjinJune 27, 2016
Significantly better for dinner than for lunch. Love their fried chicken, cumin lamb, and lettuce wraps

The pastrami has completely changed how I think about pastrami in the first place. Their dishes have excellent seasoning.
Emilie FuttermanJuly 26, 2015
The bar is a different feel, equally yummy. Can't go wrong with anything, but the Napa cabbage is low key incredible.

Chewy green tea noodles made the Zagat list for "10 Best Things We Ate in 2015 in NYC".

Spicy wings, Kung Pao pastrami, and braised beef. Delicious!
ShellyApril 14, 2015
Mapo tofu is excellent, an intricate entanglement of flavors. Salt cod fried rice, 3 of us felt it was a complete disappointment.
Ra JangAugust 12, 2017
Best Mapo tofu in NYC but should ask for a half amount of salt otherwise you ended up have to drink a gallon of water.

"General Tso's Old Fashioned" - Old Overholt #Rye #Whiskey , toasted peanut & sesame, maggi, ginger, blended chilies, palm sugar, & orange peel.
Niffy SpectorMarch 24, 2013
Food is spicy and so is the hostess. Be nice to Chelsea! No more free beer, go to Todd's Mill or Hair of the Dog to wait. Or both!

Chicken wings and beef tendon starter...!! Cod fried roce cools the mputh too. Beer over wine as its spicy!!! Six points best.
Greig RoselliJune 25, 2013
While waiting for a table the custom of giving out free beer to customers as they wait has stopped, due to someone complaining and fear of losing their liquor license (according to the host).

Recommended highly. Had the lamb, trice cooked bacon and cod rice. All three delicious, in that order. Lamb is a must have, period.
NickleshNovember 30, 2012
Great vegetarian options are the thrice cooked bacon (I could eat it everyday) and the rice noodles. Free beer on tap while you wait.

The chili chicken wings are magical. Do yourself a favor and get them.
Adam BardDecember 21, 2014
Salt cod rice w/sausage a standout, a good balance for any "very spicy" dish (which means what it says - you've been warned).
Lauren TFebruary 23, 2015
But of a wait, but all the food was flavorful and amazing. If you don't like spicy this might not be the place for you.

Love this place. Come with a group for the beggars duck.
Stacey HerronJanuary 3, 2013
Winter cold? Stuffed up? Sinus issues? The cure is ordering and eating the (delicious) Beer Brined Sichuan Pickles. Cheaper than anything at the pharmacy at $4.00.
Cameron GidariFebruary 28, 2017
Lives up to the hype. Best spring rolls I've ever had. Unbelievable wings. The brisket and broccoli is great.
Melissa MandelbaumAugust 12, 2013
Egg noodles are amazing! Chicken wings are fab - not as spicy as everyone says. Bacon dish is great but sooooo hot.
Jasmine MoyApril 5, 2015

Spicy peanut noodles, rice cakes, pea greens and squash broth. Phillip Collins cocktail the BEST

Must get spicy wings. If you need a less spicy option try the fried chicken also excellent.
Phil MachalskiApril 14, 2015
It's easy to over order here, but squeeze in the beef tartare. Salmon roe, steak and chilies wrapped in shiso. So good.
Huich InFebruary 15, 2015
Everything is amazing here but you can skip the wings, there's a spice on there that just might kill you buzz.
MuskanSeptember 1, 2015
Nice touch with the free dumplings! New location living up to the hype
CassidyMay 30, 2012
Thrice cooked bacon has enough Sichuan pepper to make you feel like you're eating pop rocks. Aggressive.
Hannah StrausJanuary 1, 2015
I really like the atmosphere, but I've been here a couple of times and just don't get what all the talk is about 👎. Pizza and wings (spicy) are good 👍
Becca BaeSeptember 21, 2015
Pastrami and papaya salad are the way to go. Phil Khallins and Tea Ceremony are divine 👌
BlackboardEatsSeptember 13, 2012
It’s gotten a lot of hype but one bite into Mission Chinese Food’s thrice-cooked bacon and you’ll be a believer. The tofu cakes sprinkled throughout the dish soak up a lot of the unctuous flavor.
Parker ChambersFebruary 1, 2017
Not really worth the wait. Trendy. Reco for cool people who are afraid to venture into actual china town.
Elizabeth COctober 10, 2012
Cumin lamb is amazing! Rich and fall-off-the-bone tender with crusty exterior. Accompanying veg is slightly caramelized. Yum.
Christine 지혜 YoonSeptember 5, 2013
My fav part. :Restroom is twin peaks themed. Spicy dishes but good. I recommend Salt cod rice and mapo tofu
Ruturaj RanaNovember 4, 2018
The fried chicken, bacon, lamb rice, and Dan Dan Raman 👌🏼
Fran WuFebruary 12, 2017
Rice cakes were unexpectedly outstanding-so much punch. Celery dish and wings were great as well.
