$9.50

“Hands-down my favorite Chinese food in NYC. We ordered the pan-fried dumplings, Shanghai spring rolls, pork soup dumplings, house special fried rice, and the stir-fried mixed vegetable chow mein. Everything was incredible, no notes. The restaurant has such an inviting ambiance with beautiful decor, and the service was great as well. We finished with the chocolate lava dumplings, which were absolutely unreal. We’ll definitely be back!”

Young Chow Fried Rice

$18.95

“I happened to pass by the other day and discovered that a new restaurant had opened here—and I’m someone who usually loves dining in Chinatown. The atmosphere is incredibly comfortable, making it the perfect spot for a casual get-together and chat with a few close friends. I highly recommend their fried rice; it’s quite different from the standard Chinese-style fried rice you typically find, and it’s definitely a pleasant surprise. Furthermore, the service is very attentive. I will certainly be recommending this place to our friends.”
