Everything about this place is average. Stopped by here because we were hungry and wanted to get something along the way to a party. The food is mediocre, the waitresses are nice.
They do seem to have a pretty good happy hour…there were a lot of middle aged people getting rowdy at the bar when we got there around 10pm.
Not a bad spot for after work happy hour if looking to get obliterated on the cheap.
Been here a few times now as it's only a few blocks from where I work.
Haven't eaten too much of the food here which does look pretty decent. I was too busy getting sloshed on their super cheapo happy hour which is a terrific deal. Happy hour is like all day long until 8pm and you can easily get hammered on their $4 mojitos and select $3 cocktails, or a beer for $3 bucks, while the ladies enjoy a $3 martini special every day till 8pm. Plus, the drinks are solid and not watered down. Booyah!
If needing to drink on the cheap after a long day on the job and catch a good buzz before stumbling into a cab or the subway this is the joint.
Delivery Review.
Ordered through Seamless. Wait time said 45 -55 minutes, no problem, the place is .5 a mile from my office. 1.5 hours later, my food had still not arrived so I called to ask and she didn't ask me my address or my name, only that my food was on the way. How could she know where it even was if she didn't know who I was???
Food finally arrived about 1.75 hours later and the guy hands me the bag and it rips. All the food spills into another layer of bags. The soup is turned upside down, the bento box is still open in a corner and spills everywhere.
Food Quality: Its OK. Not the best asian food I've had, not the worst, but the delivery experience alone was so bad that I refuse to order from here again.
Ordered the pineapple fried rice and pork dumplings from here tonight. The pineapple fried rice was flavorless and the chicken had a rubbery consistency. I threw it out after a couple bites. Dumplings weren't thay great either. There's gotta be better thai delivery in the city.
This place is really a hidden gem. I'm regretting even putting my thoughts into words because I don't want this to become an over-crowded, over-hyped spot.
Have you heard of $3 Martinis (Lychee or Mango) or $4 Mojitos until 8pm in Midtown Manhattan? Yep, me neither but this place really does exist! It's a like a more low-key and undiscovered version of Verlaine. Their happy hour lasts from 12pm-8pm every day. Say hello to day drinking on a budget for the weekend!!
The best part is that their drinks are not watered down like the ones you get at Verlaine (yep, I just called out one of my top drink spots in NYC). I ended up drinking 2 martinis with an entree and was a bit tipsy (all of which came to $16 with tax included, oh hell yeah!)
The other great thing is that since it's never crowded – I've come on a Friday night and Saturday during the day. You always get great service and attention from the wait staff. There is always tables to sit down and bar stools for those who want to hang out by the TVs.
Tasty shrimps and clean place but they offer forks instead of chopsticks and the sushis are ordinary. Good service.
Elegant restaurant and bar at same time, good mix.
I wouldn't go here expecting good Thai food, especially since the menu is mostly faux-Chinese dishes. The sushi is oddly not bad though, at least from the perspective of the other guy with me.
The Cantonese noodle soup as well as the Thai noodle soup aren't bad. It's not nearly as good as the stuff in the real good Chinese places but it's honestly not bad. The former had a few wontons as well as a good amount of pork while the later had a good amount of fake crab as well as 3 pretty sweet Shrimp (shells/head removed for those who prefer.) The later, which she said was spicy, actually was pretty spicy.
3.3, obviously not super good but there are way worse choices for take-out level Chinese.
Lapin and I came here on Saturday afternoon for lunch. The place was half filled but we were seated pretty quickly. Our waitress was nice but she wasn't very inattentive. She only came around to take and place orders; the rest of the time she was shelling beans.
I ordered the chicken and broccoli with fried rice. It was the standard Asian American fare but it wasn't very greasy (like many takeout spots) which was good. Lapin ordered the General tso's Shrimp Bento Box, which I assumed he liked (or he was just really hungry) because he ate rather quickly. He didn't even let me have a bite! The Bento Box Lunch was served with California Roll, Green Salad, Steamed Dumpling and Miso Soup for around $12. He said the Miso soup and California roll was just okay and he had better.
Overall, decent Asian American food for affordable prices. The food comes out hot and the service is decent. I did notice a sign on the side of the door offering Happy Hour drinks for $4, which might warrant another visit to try out.
