BravoDecember 2, 2010Love this small place in the West Village. Everything from the Quail Egg Shooter to the Tea Sandwiches and the Duck with Tamaki are all superb. -Thierry Rautureau, Top Chef
MetroFocusFebruary 1, 2012This sleek Midtown bar is home to 3 large televisions & a Patriotic allegiance, making it an ideal Super Bowl joint for the transplanted Boston blue blood. Read more on Metro Focus. Read more
Munira AhmedNovember 20, 2011quite pricey for malaysian food which is known for being as cheap as it is delicious .. but still, overall happy w/ the food and service
CUNY School of Professional StudiesMay 13, 2011GRADUATION GRUB: Perhaps the best pork buns in town. Everything on the South East Asian inspired menu is creative and delicious.
SavoredMay 17, 2011Try the Falafel, Mediterranean salad as an appetizer, and the Chilean sea bass or Lamb Burger for your entree! Save 30% off your entire bill by booking here:
Alexa ScordatoSeptember 25, 2011Get the sliders and pork buns. Do not hesitate. If there's a line to get seated, eat at the bar!
Charles RosenbaumJanuary 17, 2010Delicious. Definitely go for the mussels- huge, spicy, in a clam broth. Meat lovers and veggies alike will find delectable bites, just ask the friendly staff.
C FeMarch 9, 2012Could drink Chupacabras all night long. The Fatty Dog is also excellent, like a banh mi hot dog.
SharonOctober 2, 2010Everything I ate was fantastic and the Fatty Sour hit the spot. Need a place like this in the T.dot. :D
Shannon PeloquinJuly 20, 2012The Manhattan is unbelievable - they use a splash of smoked Coca-Cola. Yep, that's right - they literally put a Coke bottle in their smoker. Fabulous presentation, too.
Katie B.September 1, 2012Total waste. Spent an hour digging through $37 of crab shells for an ounce of crab meat. And the host was slightly obnoxious. He gave us a hard time about a decent table when the place was empty.
- Shea McnamaraJanuary 29, 2011Mix the watermelon juice with some beer, chili, lime, and salt -amazing!
Elaine KimJuly 17, 2011Delicious! Everything we had was delicious. Snap peas are terribly expensive for the portion.
Cynthia HoMay 1, 2010Rum coconut water is dessert and a cocktail, delish! Everything is a bit spicy tho ask for less spice if u can't take it hot
Melanie RenzulliJune 30, 2010Doesn't say it on the menu (servers fail to mention to) but they can make things veg and will even add in perfectly textured tofu
Matt McGowanNovember 13, 2010YUM! Enjoy and don't be scared to try something new. Life is to be enjoyed.
Anne Mai BertelsenNovember 30, 2011Wow. So disappointed. I remember living the west village location. Fatty Crab salad was like licking an ash tray. Sliders were dry and unimaginative. I would say, skip this place
Andrew OwenDecember 26, 2011Wow. If I wanted to go to Mexican joint where every dish burnt my taste buds off, I would've gone to a fucking Mexican joint. Worst Chinese in upper west side, possibly whole city.
Overpriced but good wine service and food so glad it's in the neighborhood
MimiJanuary 3, 2012Quite possibly the worst dining experience in my life. Terrible service, attitude, fail all around. Even forgot to serve us an entire course! Never going back.
joe rigoliOctober 8, 2010Possibly the worst and most arrogant service around. Unhelpful of the portion sizes and making recommendations for new diners. Food smells like a wet dog. Afraid of purging my entire dinner. STAY AWAY
Tara HopkinsFebruary 2, 2011Really disappointed. The laksa was inedible. The only good thing on the menu are the drinks and the pork bun isn't bad.
Natalie LinMarch 6, 2011Bastardization of Malaysian favorites + weak cocktails + shockingly bad service = a place to AVOID.
