Grandma's Home 外婆家

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!

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.

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.

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.

Restaurant was great! Came here with some friends and the combination of food, service, and ambiance is fantastic for a night out or even a date. Recommend the chicken in a clay pot with rice - this was a winner. The crispy fish appetizer was also amazing. The mapo tofu is spicy but a must get as well. I thought the dumplings were just okay - would pass on that next time. However, the spring rolls were pretty delicious.

I like the food, especially some of the less common ingredients, but the flavors were very mild. I prefer more intense flavors, especially in Asian food. The loofah melon was surprisingly tasty, it reminded me of chewy noodles. I also loved the coconut pudding. It wasn't too sweet and all the topics had a very distinct flavor. The Hong shao rou looked great, but it was pretty bland.

As someone who grew up in Hangzhou: This is the most authentic Hangzhou food I have had in the US! This is a popular chain store in China and the food quality is the same here too. I would recommend the You Tiao Shrimp and rice cake with crab. Super delicious.

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!
