East Broadway

Best kept secret in Lower East Side, open 24/7. Best dumplings and authentic noodles for the cheapest I've ever paid for the quantity and quality. I order the dumpling and stir fried noodles with seafood every time and it never disappoints me. It's conveniently located by one of my favorite bars so I like to sneak off and have me some food whenever I get a good buzz going. I found this place by googling 24 hour diners in LES and this came in clutch! Go get you some nom nom's.

An unassuming Fuijianese cuisine restaurant with a very creative restaurant name. A place with older exterior and interior design like the owners don't care about what it looks like inside and out. Frequented by locals and returning customers. They speak English and Mandarin. Most days it's quiet and there's no wait even on weekends. I've gone to other FJ food places in lower Manhattan and nowhere can beat East Broadway's soup noodles. I love their oxtail noodle. It's complex in flavor and doesn't leave you super thirsty after eating it. I also got the pork intestines and pepper and was warned it was spicy. It was kinda spicy and very flavorful. The menu has all sorts of delicacies, from eel to pork blood. It's good for adventurous eaters and people for like FJ food. I Can't wait to return to try all their options. The service is pretty good and the food comes out really fast. You can literally see them cook it in the kitchen in the back. They also have chinese take-out food (Something over rice) on the bottom of the last page on the menu.

Definitely worth a try anytime you are in Lower Manhattan or Brooklyn. Always fresh and always delicious food awaits here. If you want to try Fujian food, then this is where your desires are met.

Nice area Chinatown, Little Italy, Pier 36 it is frequently visited by tourists and locals.

My friend and I were starving and were looking to get something quick to eat. The front desk receptionist suggested Kings Chinese but they were closing by the time around. We walked around the street and decided to eat here. The lady in the front was very very rude. We ordered shrimp fried rice and an order of dumplings as they had no egg rolls. The shrimp fried rice came out first and I have never in my life seen white “fried” rice. Basically they mixed white rice and eggs and that’s it. No flavor super bland. It took about another 20 minutes for the dumplings to come out. When we asked for an update on the dumplings her response was “i know” and never updated us. The dumplings were halfway fried and super super greasy. I was shocked. Especially being in Chinatown. I expected better. Rude service and equally bad food. I would give this place a zero if i could.
