"When a classic Sichuan menu and unfussy dining room maintains staying power in Mandarin Plaza for nearly 50 years, that space is essential for Chinatown dining. Established in 1972, Chinese Friends Restaurant still touts its longtime slogan, the “Original One & Only.” When perusing the Chinese Friends menu and a dish speaks to you, just order it. The prices are incredibly reasonable, so take the extras home for late-night reheats, or snack directly from the to-go container." - Eater Staff
