Kai Cao: Can't go wrong with the baked bbq pork buns. Steamed bean curd and har gow were also very good.
Nate S: For two of us, we split about 8 dishes. Favorites: BBQ pork buns, hot and sour wonton soup, and sesame lava custard balls.
Yuna 🇰🇷 Park: BBQ pork buns at THW are unique, with a sweet harder exterior. They are a must get every time we come.
Herminia Colon Mina Miyoko: Try the roast pork Char siu is a popular way to flavor and prepare barbecued pork in Cantonese cuisine.
Joe Cheskin: If you can brave the line, you'll be rewarded with freshly chopped Chinese BBQ pork, duck, or chicken over rice. Huge portions and super cheap prices.
Evelyn Ling: Duck is a little fatty but the BBQ pork is good!

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.
Kathy Liu: BBQ pork buns and congee were so good! Was worried about lines, but waited only about 15 minutes before being seated during rush hour.
Bobbie McLellan: Bbq pork buns and sticky rice in lotus leaf were top notch and totally worth the visit. The rest of the items were surprisingly sub par compared to good dim sum restaurants.

Soyun Jee: The spicy miso ramen is also delish! Great broth! Also try to the BBQ pork buns. The pork is absolute heaven.
Anson Wang: BBQ pork buns were amazing. Pork bone was better than kimchi but both were awesome, really down to personal preference. Sweet potato fries made me believe in God again.
Sharon Tsao: I actually really like the clean flavors of the kimchi ramen! It's less salty than the spicy miso, which was also pretty good. BBQ pork buns are better than ippudo's.

W Frankenstein: Among the best zha leung (creuller in rice noodle) in town. No spring onion, but a spiced soy sauce is used. One order has lots! Also great: fake cha siu (BBQ pork) and 3 mushroom noodles.
Phil P: Vegetarian BBQ pork and black pepper chicken are great - coming from a meat eater.
Lori Luo: Looking to accommodate some vegetarians? Buddha Bodai serves up a tasty number of dishes, and does an excellent dim sum (pan fried turnip cake, BBQ "pork", and congee) as well.

Aaron: Get the bbq pork with white rice. Divine.
Epicurious: The decor may be kitschy and the service often perfunctory, but the soft-shell crabs, pho with beef and scallions, and barbecued pork chops are magnificent - a Vietnamese standout in Chinatown.
DJ James Vincent NYC: Been coming here since 1990 and i still order the same meal -- summer rolls w shrimp, BBQ pork chop, crispy squid & their special iced coffee-- awesome every time!

Trae F: The Arroz con pollo is incredible. I'm still thinking about it. The fish tacos and bbq pork tacos are also delicious. Jean-Georges!
Michelle Alexander: Crispy BBQ Pork Tacos with pickled pineapple was the best. Also enjoyed the Maitake Mushrooms.
CCnyc: Sweet pea guac & chips (perfectly seasoned and crispy), beer salad, crispy BBQ pork tacos, and the cookie plate 🍪 are all worth ordering

graceygoo: Solid korean fried chicken, bibimbap, kalbi, jaeyuk (spicy pork bbq with kimchi) and stews, but skip the pajeon (too doughy)
Neelu Ravi: Good Korean food in the neighborhood if you are lazy to take the subway down to Korea town! We ordered Vegetarian and bulgogi bibimbap, both were really good. Don’t forget the kcloud beer!!
Jess Nha: Best Korean food I've had in awhile. Worth the hike uptown! #delicious #korean #food

The Corcoran Group: THE place to go for steamed buns. We love the pumpkin buns and the BBQ pork buns the most, but they're all pretty amazing.
ZenFoodster: Don't get the baked BBQ Pork bun-it has more fat than meat. Blech!
Frederik Vosberg: Nice dumplings like sweet pumkin dumplings or a little too sweet BBQ pork dumplings. They aren't perfect, but good and for a price up to 80 cents per big dumpling you can't go wrong

Ray Lin: New favorite bahn mi in the city, just delicious. Cub Classic is utterly amazing, with superb BBQ pork, pate, perfectly toasted bread (+ jalepenos). Notice how many quality adjectives were used?
Anna Frenkel: Meat lovers - please please please get the Cub Classic, and make it spicy. It's definitely not a traditional bahn mi but that's what makes it even better.
Carly Heinz: Cheaper and fresher than Baoguette, better than Nicky's, and cheaper and bigger than Num Pang!
