CHELI MANHATTAN 浙里

Unique and delicious meal in a special atmosphere. Friendly, helpful staff. With reservations, we were seated immediately on a Friday night. People without reservations were waiting as CheLi was bustling. Reasonable prices, generous portions. Loved the dumplings, Beggar's Chicken and sautéd green beans. "Crispy Lava", black sweet buns filled with warm, liquid duck egg custard made a wonderful dessert. Would love to go again and try more.

We had an amazing dinner here at Che li! The service was so great and attentive. The food came out perfect timing and everything was delicious. The soup dumplings were the best and the portion were great for sharing. We left so full and they even gave us a complimentary dessert on the house which was warm and delicious. I’ll definitely be coming back here for a date night or girls night out. The vibe is so cute and the drinks are also amazing! The tea is perfect for a cold winter night.

We visited Zhe Li during Chinese New Year and made an online reservation in advance for 8:15 pm. I had confidently told my friend beforehand that Zhejiang cuisine has many delicious dishes and that this restaurant had strong online ratings. Unfortunately, we left feeling extremely disappointed. First, the seating situation was chaotic. When we arrived, there wasn’t even a proper space to queue — everyone was crowded together near the entrance. The staff were clearly overwhelmed, and despite having reservations, guests were not seated in any clear order.

Second, service organization was lacking. It didn’t seem like servers were

The first time we came, the restaurant was so popular that we couldn’t get in. On our second visit, we were seated in a wonderful spot. We would especially like to thank the kind and attentive server, Ting Ting. Her detailed introductions to every dish helped us choose exactly what we loved. Her warmth made us want to come back again. During the meal, when we accidentally started coughing, she thoughtfully brought us a gentle warm drink that soothed our throats. The manager, Jimmy, was also very humble and professional. His service was thorough and attentive, he handled our requests perfectly, and greeted us sincerely. He truly went the extra mile to take care of every guest’s needs. The level of professionalism we experienced was outstanding, just like the food itself. Thank you all fo

I love this place so much. The prices are very reasonable for the quality of food you get, and everything we ordered was delicious. My favorites are the crispy duck, pork belly, and the desserts. They were all perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated, which makes the whole dining experience even better. Great food, great atmosphere, and definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to for sure.
