“ At first sight, I was being judgmental and thinking it is a run downed unattended food court. It lacked decor and just looks plain disorganized. It was not until someone told me to give it a chance. So I said fine to just "see" how it is on the inside first and I really did not intend to stay. Not to say that I only dine in 5 star restaurants, but this was the last spot I'd want to try. Why? The outside was not too attractive. This was a previous huge dimsum/ banquet hall so we all remembered the good old days. Now they section every stall to serve different foods. Holy smokes!! The chicken spot was amazing. The chicken was fresh. It was also featured in random tik tok foodie videos for cheap eats. It came in a set and was well received. Meanwhile, the fresh soybean mill stand served grass jelly. The stuff was awesome!!!! I did not try the rest of the stalls but saw a lot of customers trying out different things. Kudos to a place like this that brings more diverse eats in this community. Please support your local businesses and vendors!! ”

“ This bustling food court is only a couple of years old, but if you told me it had been around since the old Bowery days with all the Tong gangs, I would've believed it. Looking like a well-used cafeteria in a Hong Kong shopping mall, it's on Mott Street just above Canal in Chinatown. I think there were ten separate stalls surrounding the crowded dining area. It was a bit of a struggle for Jamie W. and me to browse the selections as there were long lines for dim sum and various rice plates. I was immediately drawn to the Khao Mun Gai at Gai Kitchen where we were pleasantly surprised by the $5.99 small serving of Thai Style Chicken & Rice (photo: https://yelp.to/d-2yVxv0Xv). Such a good deal on a day in NYC when we knew we were gorging. We were lucky to snag an empty card table because local residents must have a timeshare on the regular dining tables. The food was quite a good deal with four succulent pieces of poached chicken over brown rice with their special brown sauce and celery slices. Just so you know, they have signs that say the bathrooms are not public, but nobody paid attention to the warning. Maybe it's part of the timeshare. FOOD - 4 stars...a good deal on the Khao Mun Gai AMBIANCE - 3.5 stars...intensely busy and already a bit aged SERVICE - 3 stars...hardly any interaction TOTAL - 4 stars..solid chicken & rice for cheap RELATED - Hungry in NYC? Here's my collection of places I've tried and reviewed: https://bit.ly/2YS9ELs ”

“ This review is for the mom and pop stall on the right side (two stalls down from Domo sushi) that doesn't have a stall name. The stall is a hidden gem in the eatery as I believe it is owned an operated by an elderly couple (65+ years old). They don't have anyone that is capable of marketing for the stall so leaving a review in hope it'll bring them organic business. The only item that my coworker and I get here is the Singapore Hainanese Chicken Rice (now $9). Details below: - Grandma DEBONES the chicken for you! - Chicken is flavorful and silky - Comes with oiled rice (rice cooked in the broth the chicken was boiled in) - The ginger scallion oil that goes with the chicken is phenomenal I've attached photos. Thank me later. ”

“ One stop shop if you don't want to hustle and tussle around Chinatown. I am so grateful that this place has enough seating every time I come here to eat. The price is right on the majority of the stations so "Come On Down!". All I have to say is this food court has something for everyone like there is an a$$ for every seat. One more point to share, please share table space because it does build community and you never know who will sit next to you. Sharing is caring! ”

“ Very cool, no frills food hall right off of Canal. I can't speak for most of the food stalls, but what I had was good and satisfied my snacky cravings. It was relatively crowded, but has ample cafeteria style seating. Definitely a rare type of set up in Manhattan- feels more like Flushing! (Which I love ) ”
