The 9 Best Chinese Restaurants in the Upper West Side, New York

Jennifer Chu-Carroll: sesame noodles with chili oil is divine!

Rewan Parti: Order the Dan Dan noodles and dry pepper chicken! The food is delicious and service is ninja fast!

Yen HNguyen: Love the atmosphere and the food! Everything comes in big portions (family style = for share). Highly recommend Chicken dry pepper (spicy level 5). Not recommend tofu with meat. Definitely come back!

Chip Perro: Pork buns are simple and awesome here. If you're adventurous try the jalapeño poppers - they aren't too spicy!

Serious Eats: The uptown location of the fun Chinese-American restaurant with excellent dumplings and other classics.

Lindsay Anderson: honestly found this meal to be mediocre. the presentation is awesome, but beyond that the pricing is nuts for the quantity and quality of the dishes. meh.

Cathy Lee: Delicious food, modern decor, great lighting, not crowded

Alex Robertson: Yet another upscale Chinese spot around Columbia. Wasn’t a huge fan of the dan dan noodles

Vicki Chen: Authentic Chinese restaurant with artistic decor and friendly staff.

Myung: The beef (both rib eye and fatty) here is awesome. Veggies in general are solid, and there’s a bar where you can create your own hot pot sauce. The only downside is that it’s a bit pricey!

Julie Avra: This place is fast, delicious, cheap and popping. The dry hot pot is spicy. it's super flavorful and fun to choose your ingredients. Mushrooms and chicken (so moist!). Get cucumber appetizer also!

Davis Hall: Very good food, but easy to over order. I like hottest. Noodles, broth? I prefer the dry hot pot. Portions are large. Go with friends if possible. Wish they served beer or wine.

Honghui Yu: Really good dry pot with a plethora of ingredients to choose from and reasonable prices.

Kevin M: Best general Tso chicken with house special fried rice

Abiola Abrams: I'm an 80/20 vegan and I was told to have the crackling chicken!! Lol

Victor Medina-San Andrés: I left this place, they served me rotten meat, grotesque!!!

J: Soup dumplings, pan fried pork dumplings...basically all the dumplings!!

Joshua Newman: Solid Chinese.

Myung: Great sichuan food that’s cheaper than (yet comparable in quantity to) the other spots in the area! Try the double cooked pork, fish filet in chili oil, and eggplant in garlic sauce

Yvette Zzauer: Dumplings!!

Ernie Bello: The beef and scallions were excellent along with the Dan Dan noodles.

Chez Ong: Favorite Peruvian roast chicken place. It's way better than Pio Pio! The squid ink fried rice and green pastas are ridiculously awesome too.

Kate Griggs: The waiters are so caring and awesome. Ask for recommendations!! Also, the Nutcracker is a stellar drink, worth the NYC price

New York Habitat: Get a pitcher of sangria and the pollo a la brasa or lomo saltado. Yup, it's gonna be a good night.
