Dine on succulent salt-baked seafood, handmade noodles, and juicy roast meats in this no-frills spot that delivers big flavors at wallet-friendly prices.
"While you can’t currently sit in Great NY Noodletown late at night and gorge yourself on roast pork and wonton soup, you can now do that very activity at home. This classic Cantonese spot in Chinatown recently reopened for takeout and delivery, and they’re accepting orders online (just know they stop delivery service at 9pm every day)." - hannah albertine
"Great N.Y. Noodletown is one of Manhattan Chinatown’s classic restaurants. It has been open since 1981, and it found some notoriety outside of New York after appearing in an episode of the Layover, hosted by Anthony Bourdain. Its roast meats are a must-order — duck, char siu, and chicken can be acquired over a plate of rice, together or separately, for about $10 — and we recommend the wonton noodle soup. Cash only." - Robert Sietsema

"The duck hanging in the window never made this place visually enticing, but the crispy noodles are pretty damn good!" - My Orange Box
"For a late-night snack at Great N.Y. Noodletown. My go-to orders are the salt baked squid, baby pig, Chinese flowering chives with shredded roast duck, Singapore chow fun (spicy), and wonton soup with shrimp." - Nancy DePalma
