Some friends brought me here and recommended the monk bowl, it was delicious! I enjoyed the monk bowl very much. The bowl was super hot and made the rice crispy. It kept the food piping hot. I got mine with the monk beef, it was bomb af fire🔥

Karelly was our server and she was excellent. She asked us if it was our first time there, it was. Then she explained the Monk Bowl to us and how to order it. She took her time and answered every question we had and made it easy for us to understand. The food was really really good! The portions are huge, I do mean huge. You will be taking some home with you. The two sauces on the table were very tasty. One of them was sweet n spicy and the other was soy sauce plus their extra flair to it. We also had the pork and shrimp pot stickers. These were excellent as well as everything else. The soy type sauce used with the pot stickers was very yummy. I forgot to take before pictures but here's what it looked like after we dug in. Words alone cannot describe how much we enjoyed this place. We will be back. Bobbi Jo and Jeff

This place was amazing! The monk bowl hit the spot and was big enough to split with my teenager! Staff was super friendly and knowledgeable.

Carlos was our waiter, and the busser I can't remember his name were very professional and kind, and after we were seated and ordered Carlos had our food to us in less than 5 minutes on a busy Saturday night. The service was phenomenal. The food was out-of-this-world delicious. If you want quick yummy healthy food with a slight spice you'll love East Village Asian Diner.

The food was tasty, full of flavor! But what was really outstanding, was our server. Karelly was awesome! She made our anniversary exceptional. She was so pleasant and explained several menu items to us. She was very attentive and really made our experience one to remember. We will be coming back regularly. Thank you Karelly!!!
