A great Chinese restaurant. Much better than panda express. You don't know what you're missing. I just had a great salmon and broccoli dinner with brown rice. My friend had sesame shrimp. Everything was wonderful and the prices are very reasonable. Don't miss it!
I have been coming here for years. During the pandemic, this business suffered like many others. It was nice to see they made it through and that my favorite waiter was still here. When dining in the food is always fresh never disappointed. Love their ribs and eggfoo young and have had a good experience when trying other things on the menu. However, I agree with others the wonton soup noodles are too thick The ambiance is just a restaurant nothing fancy nice, and a relaxed environment. I prefer them over any fast-food, Chinese restaurant in the area. Prices are decent, but this is not a fast-food, Chinese Restaurant, which is why I believe some of the comments are made regarding their prices. I agree that the prices have increased, but still wouldn't compare it to a fast-food restaurant the quality is much better.
Sometimes you just want hassle free, NYC style, inexpensive Chinese food in a no no no frills setting. Mee is that kind of spot. It moved out of my neighborhood when Covid shut it down, and I missed the roast soy chicken noodle soup that got me through the winter. I am happy as a clam that I can make a quick trek down to the East Village for a hot steamy bowl. The waiter is the best, he remembered me and what I liked. I've had other dishes as well but I mostly recommend the noodle soups. The duck soup is very good. Like I said, quick cheap eats, satisfying and good noodle soups! Or get takeout!
Sunday, December 3, 2023 lunch for party of 2. Warm welcome and as soon as we sat a pot of hot tea was brought to the table with menus. The lady ordered the porkchop special which was 2 pork cutlets cut up with baby bok choy. Drizzled with a sweet soy sauce. She enjoyed it and had some to take home. I had the everything soup without corn starch slurry. Plenty of egg noodles topped with a little bit of everything. The bowl really hit the spot on this chilly, dreary, and rainy day. Prices are reasonable for what we ordered and service was great.
Solid noodle shop I've been going to since the '90s. The prices have, of course, given where they're located gone up, and judging by the other reviews eat in, rather than take out.
We were craving Chinese food and this hit the spot. I'm not sure if it was the owner, we forgot his name but the man who greeted us when we came in was super nice and treated us so good. We had about 6 different dishes and they were all so delicious. We were too hungry to take pictures before. If you want som real Chinese food, come here you won't be disappointed.
The dry saute fish filet was extremely fresh and tasty. Warning: it is super spicy. The roast duck was heavenly and the pork fried rice was one of the best I ever ate. We are sure going to order from here again.
