Grandma's Home 外婆家

Grandma’s Home does a great job of making authentic Chinese food approachable in a cozy yet modern atmosphere. The interior and design of the restaurant are very well thought out with authentic touches from China and good acoustics for conversations (even during peak times). I forget the name of our server but she was lovely along with the hosts at the front. Every item on the menu is equal or better than the flavors you would get in a hole-in-the-wall spot in Chinatown. If not familiar of how to order, I’d suggest to work with your server so you get a well-balanced meal. Reasonably priced delicious food in a fun atmosphere… Definitely will be back!

Wow, we loved this place! Highlights were the crispy soy glazed fish, black pepper ribeye, and crispy eggplant - each of these 3 dishes oozed with flavor and wowed us. That said no dish was bad and even the cocktails we found very tasty. The service was also terrific. The food came out within 5 minutes, but we didn't feel rushed at all in taking our time to enjoy the meal. The soy glazed fish was actually given to us for free! For the full experience of delicious food, great service, and creative interior design, the pricing is extremely reasonable. I'd highly recommend for any meal and occasion!

The ambiance / setting are absolutely lovely. Their chopsticks have a weird ridge in the center that make it very hard to pick up food. Bad design. Excellent, attentive service. The servers were all quite nice and the food came out SUPER fast. Unfortunately, the food was just okay. The clay pot slow cooked chicken dish was absolutely divine, but everything else was only so-so. The crab + noodle dish had emaciated crab shells and very little noodle. The sea bass wasn't terribly flavorful. The crystal shrimp with green tea overtones did not taste like green tea at all. Very affordable though! A good spot for a quick group outing if you're not too picky about food.

Hangzhou cuisine ranks among the eight traditional culinary styles of China, and Grandma’s Home provides New York City with an authentic taste of this heritage. In fact, it offers an even more genuine experience reminiscent of a grandmother’s kitchen. Renowned for its emphasis on freshness and lightness, Hangzhou cuisine is exemplified in the offerings at Grandma’s Home. I was particularly impressed by the presentation of the dim sum platter, which was served in a birdcage. Historically, dim sum goers in Old China would bring their birdcages to savor tea and dim sum. This innovative presentation of a long-forgotten tradition highlights the authenticity that Grandma’s Home strives to convey to its patrons. My experience at Grandma’s Home was thoroughly enjoyable; it is truly a destination worth visiting.

Absolutely my favorite restaurant now! Hubby and I have been three times and each time has been amazing! The decor and artwork inside is beautiful and the food is incredibly delicious! Definitely try the "Kung Pao Shrimp" - your taste buds will go wild! and the "Crispy Skin Chicken"...oh my God, the best! Also try their cocktail called "West Lake Potion" - totally different than any other cocktail with an interestingly good taste 👌🏽. On our last visit, we were served complimentary dishes: Vegetable Spring Rolls and I believe some type of Zucchini with a mouth-watering glaze! Our waitress Estefanie (sorry if I misspelled) has been our waitress each time and she's super nice along with all the other staff. Bathrooms are clean and each stall has its own private door with a sink inside. Surprisingly, we never had a problem finding parking. Five stars all the way!

This restaurant is a great representation of modern Chinese cuisine, offering authentic flavors in an elegant dining setting with attentive and proactive service. The creatively crafted dishes, along with other top modern Chinese restaurants in New York, bring a new level of fine dining to the city. Every dish we tried was flavorful and unique, especially the tea-smoked chicken, which had a perfect balance of seasoning, with the tea aroma complementing the savory chicken. In addition to the food, their cocktails, especially the non-alcoholic drinks, offer many creative options. Overall, this is a must-visit for anyone looking to experience modern Chinese cuisine.

Took my Chinese parents here for dinner . This is one of the worst Chinese restaurants I've been to in NY. The food was just so bland and all of their signature dishes (braised pork 紅燒肉was terrible) were so bad. Service was great the servers and managers were really nice about it when we complained how we didn't like the food. But we'll never come back here again if the restaurant can't even make their food taste good at this price point.

Ambience and decor is nice. Service was exceptional. Food was just mediocre. We had the chili oil chicken and that was a bit dry. Luckily we did not invest in the other two chickens. Mapo tofu was okay. Praises to the dessert chef as the coconut pudding was exceptional. The home made red bean paste and sesame balls were such a nice touch to the pudding. Mango pomelo was also pretty good. We absolutely loved the duck bamboo shoot. It was creamy white broth. They really extracted all the collagen from the duck bones. Very yummy soup!
