XO Taste 41 Elizabeth Street, Manhattan, New York 10013

"The menus are chaotic but just order the crispy dough wrapped in rice noodles. The crispy dough is fried fresh upon ordering and is the best thing you’ll eat. Giant order for just $7. Soup noodles are good too - large, tasty wontons in the wonton noodle soup! Giant bowl for $8. Can’t beat the prices for very good food."

"An amazing gem in Chinatown! Great prices for food and never disappoints. I’ve always ordered the pan fried dumplings here and they are absolutely delicious. The coconut ice cream with red bean is an amazing dessert here too!"

"We got the baked chicken kew with portuguese sauce casserole and the crispy fried eel dumplings, high rec the casserole dish but the eel dumplings, not so much. The wasabi sauce on the dumplings was super overpowering, the filling is eel with seaweed sheet, which tasted very odd to me. There’s a wait line but everything moves relatively fast, service is not the most attentive (as expected from a reg chinese restaurant so I’m fine with that). Portion is very big and filling!"

"Everything tastes so good and well priced. Especially the noodle soups and the baked fried rice in casserole dishes."

"You can find the best Hong Kong style tea with milk here. It’s a popular spot in China Town, full house when we arrived for lunch around 2:30 pm. Price is reasonable, the Hong Kong style dishes are delicious. This has been my China Town go to place for almost 20 years. Don’t expect good atmosphere here though, you can hear the waitresses talked loudly to each other from both ends of the restaurant…"
