★★★★☆ 4.0 Carin Rudich · Dec 2025

This place is famous for a reason. It’s always crowded and there’s usually a wait but well worth it. The food comes out fast and the portions are massive. Always delicious and plenty left over. We were three and shared the Eggplant in Yuxiang Sauce, Singapore Chow Mei Fun and General Tso’s Chicken. The waiter was great and helped us with subs since we are gluten free. There is a tiny bar up front but they usually sit people there to eat.

Came to Uncle Lou in celebration of Lunar New Year and food here is always perfect and spot on every time I dine here! This is one of the most popular spot in all of Chinatown, with a line that is constantly out the door (believe me, it’s definitely worth the wait!!). Their Cantonese style food is always a classic, and the dim sum here is definitely my favorite! Highly recommend trying their rice noodles and dumplings! The decor and atmosphere here is also very warm and welcoming, definitely great to come with both family and friends. Definitely brings back a lot of memories of having family style Chinese food growing up! Can’t wait to come back and try something new from their extensive menu of Chinese food next time!!

Excellent food! Long wait times, but worth it. I like how they gave us a free pot of green tea. I ordered the pork dumpling, garlic beef with scallions, crab fried rice (I think I would get without crab next time), and the eggplant was great and so was the bok choy

★★★★☆ 4.0 CTNYC Family · Feb 2026

We went for Chinese New Year Eve dinner, so many people waiting for tables. We had reservations and we still waited 40 minutes. The manager & hostess came over to apologize. The food was so good, especially the peking duck, garlic chicken and the pan fried flounder. Will definitely be back.

★★★★★ 5.0 Kathy and PM · Jan 2026

Delicious food that exceeded expectations! Succulent, well-spiced, tender, moist Peking duck; delicately flavored and perfectly cooked seafood crispy noodles with fresh shrimp, scallops, squid and cuttlefish; fresh, meaty fish in a tasty ginger, scallion soy sauce. The dining room was tastefully decorated with well-spaced tables. Service was friendly, efficient and attentive. Reasonable prices and good portion sizes. A new find for us - we look forward to returning!
