The 27 Best Restaurants In Chinatown - New York - The Infatuation

"Uncle Lou channels the neighborhood's old-school Cantonese spots, with a hint of neon and a bit of fake foliage. Open since 2021, the place stays packed with groups going to town on family-style portions, and it nails just about everything on its enormous menu. The garlic chicken is essential, and you should pair it with some bacon fried rice, chow mei fun, and perfectly silky wontons. Reservations are only available for parties of six or more, so keep Uncle Lou in mind for your next birthday party." - bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick, willa moore, neha talreja, will hartman
