Le Sia

Chinese restaurant · East Village

@eater

"Tina Chen, Yang Liu, and chef Zac Zheng’s Le Sia is one of the city’s best places to eat shellfish, period. This is where diners come for spicy piles of crawfish ($15 per pound), snow crab ($28 per pound), whole lobsters ($30), and, best of all, Dungeness crab ($35). Patrons don plastic gloves and eat with their hands. Any night here is a special occasion, and even more so for solo guests who tackle these succulent crustaceans by themselves." - Ryan Sutton
