Jiang's Kitchen 疆湖 - Halal Chinese Food on Postcard

"Created in emulation of a diner, this restaurant surprised the East Village last year with Xinjiang food from China’s far northwest. Expect lots of lamb, as fatty kebabs and rice pilaf, and the giant bulging dumplings the menu describes as “shumai,” plus the legendary big tray of chicken. For a pleasant vegetable experience, don’t miss the steamed eggplant with fresh garlic paste. Menu here. Order online." - Robert Sietsema, Eater Staff

"Like its predecessor Jiang Diner, this restaurant imagines itself as the Uyghur equivalent of an American diner, with main courses drawn from the cuisine’s canon of noodles, kebabs, and rice casseroles, plus Chinese-leaning side dishes such as wood-ear mushrooms and hot-and-sour cucumbers. Lamb ribs are a good choice for the former, and tofu and scallion for the latter." - Robert Sietsema

"Jiang's Kitchen's barbecued lamb ribs, part of a Restaurant Week promotion, featured a lean rack of ribs coated in dry spices and barbecued to a smoky, crispy crust with a soft layer of fat underneath. Extra cumin and hot pepper mix were provided on the side, along with dense, doughy bread." - Eater Staff

Beyond delicious food presented in beautiful, and large portions, all for a wonderfully low price! I was extremely impressed with Jiang's Kitchen and the food received. The restaurant was a bit crowded and it did take a bit for our order to be taken, but the meals were delivered quite promptly. The staff were extremely kind and friendly and ensured our meals were prepared and presented properly. I highly recommend this restaurant and will be returning in the future!

A solid find for quality halal Chinese food in the city. We got the lamb dumplings and sizzling beef. The dumplings were steamed just right and the meat inside was cooked and seasoned very well, I would come back again just for the dumplings 10/10. The beef was impressive in presentation with the sizzling, in terms of taste it was a 7/10. Overall a great staple to have in your rotation

The food was absolutely phenomenal! My mother is Northern Chinese, so all the food hit home, was authentic, and, most importantly, delicious. All the grilled skewers were amazing, would definitely recommend the lamb skewers. The big plate chicken was a big hit with the whole table and was huge (enough for 4 people). Make sure to come with a big stomach, the portion are large and great for sharing. Also, make sure to get the hand rolled noodles with lamb, super super good noodles!

Halal hot pot place in East village serving deliciousness. Always wanted to try a hot pot and was stumbled across this place through a friend. It was a first time trying a hot pot for everyone in our group so we didn’t have any expectations. But overall, we weren’t disappointed. Although I will admit that the items from the regular menu were more preferable. We chose the spicy/clear broth for the hot pot and didn’t realize how spicy it was going to be (fumes all across, lol). The lamb cumin with rice was delicious but the star was definitely the sweet and sour cucumber 💯

This was so delicious. The food had rich and balanced flavor, the noodles were handmade with tender texture, and everything was cooked to perfection. I went with two girlfriends for dinner; we split the steamed dumplings & bok choy and each got a noodle dish plus two taro boba teas. Everything was delicious, I left feeling warm and satiated with some leftovers I’m looking forward to having tomorrow for breakfast. The atmosphere was clean & casual with nice lighting. I would highly recommend if this spot.
