Will Flaherty: Dan Dan Noodles, Dry Pepper Chicken and Dumplings in Chili Oil all are outstanding. Also super cheap tasting menus ($20!) for group dinners.

Caroline: One of my favorite places in the east village. Amazing food. Try the Dan Dan noodles and dumplings with chili oil.

Jason Schulweis: Baked BBQ pork buns specifically, but everything is great (we also had fried pork dumplings, streamed shrimp dumplings, spring rolls and streamed rice balls - all great).
Hannah Murray: Stumbled upon the line ~4:30pm and was seated immediately upon the 5pm opening. Enjoyed the BBQ pork buns, congee, sticky rice, shrimp dumplings, and shrimp/pork sui mai. Skip the blanched vegetables.
Alyssa O: Pork buns and steamed shrimp dumplings are worth the wait but plan accordingly: we got in line at 9:30am, they took our names at 10:15am and we were seated at 11:45am.

Tasting Table: Apart from the excellent khachapuri ($12 to $16) blistered and bubbling, you'll want to start with an order of lamb khinkali ($8), juicy steamed dumplings the size of baseballs. Read more.
Michael Hussey: Love everything here. Try the cucumber, tomato, and onion salad with walnut dressing. Always order the dumplings,
Zoé Ganch: Delicious dumplings and Cornish hen!

Arjun: Dumplings and buns. Dan-Dan is underwhelming. Dry pot is pretty good.
Jasmine Mehrabi: Really good. Got the dumplings, dan dan noodles with beyond beef, and dry hot pot with mixed veggies and tofu. Definitely enough for 3 people.
Pineapple Froyo: Wow… I was pretty disappointed especially given the hype for this place but when I took the Dan Dan noodles home to eat the next day they were 100x better than eating fresh

Quan Walker: Wednesday night: Trini night! Crab & Dumplings, Bake & Shark, Roti, Aloo Pie, Carib etc... Highly recommend the crab with a drink of Scotch and coconut water!
Akiko Bombita: Great reggae and fun vibe in the middle of the city. Get breakfast for dinner: ackee and saltfish, boiled banana and dumpling. Pina coladas are pretty good.

Valerie Seckler: 3 off-the-menu items come with the dinner sushi bento. Tonight: clam, shrimp dumplings, seaweed.
Berk Kapicioglu: Best reasonably priced sushi in the village. Their sushi consistently tastes great.
Eric Friedman: Great sushi spot in the neighborhood. Head to the back patio to sit in the bright greenhouse while you eat. Grab a well priced lunch special of sashimi. Salad or soup, and a excellent cut of fish.
