"Deluxe Green Bo is a great place to bring a small group in Chinatown, since there are a bunch of round tables that comfortably fit six-ish people. The decor is bare-bones, but the service at this cash-only spot is always super friendly. Start with an order or two of xiao long bao. There are no colorful skins or extravagant fillings here, but the classics are simple and delicious. The fried tiny pork buns are always worth getting, and we also like the hot and spicy wontons drenched in peanut sauce and hot chili oil." - willa moore, will hartman
"Soup Dumplings!!! This place is surely a hidden gem in Chinatown but cherished by locals for their generous portions and reasonable prices. This place recently changed it's name but hasn't changed the quality of yumminess they serve daily. Our favorite is (obviously) the soup dumplings. If you aren't a fan of soup dumplings, the Peking pork chops and sautéed pea tips are also winners in our book." - Barrel
"You won’t see any colorfully dyed exteriors or extravagant filings incorporated into Deluxe Green Bo’s xiao long bao. Just plain and simple steamed flour-dough pouches filled with meaty pork, crab, and savory broth, each perfectly pinched and twisted at the top so you get a chewy knot bite. Deluxe Green Bo has been serving customers on Bayard Street since 1982, and it’s one of our favorite places to go with a small group in Chinatown. Aside from the xiao long bao, get an order of fried tiny buns filled with pork, an extremely crispy scallion pancake, and the hot and spicy wontons that come drenched in cold, thick peanut sauce and hot chili oil. Bring cash, as Deluxe Green Bo doesn’t accept credit cards." - hannah albertine, nikko duren, carlo mantuano, molly fitzpatrick
"If you want to impress anyone with excellent soup dumplings, take them to Deluxe Green Bo. In addition to the soup dumplings (which are incredibly meaty and come with a combo of crab and pork), we love the rice cakes with shredded pork and cabbage, as well as the hot and spicy wontons that come with peanut sauce, sesame seeds, and chili oil on top. The space isn’t huge, so we wouldn’t recommend bringing more than four people here with you, but it’s great for a few out-of-towners if you’re playing host." - bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick, willa moore, neha talreja, will hartman
"Open since 1982, this Chinatown restaurant works for any occasion. Pop in for a casual group dinner, or host a birthday party with a spread of Shanghainese food and a few bottles of riesling from the shop across the street. In terms of atmosphere, there isn’t much beyond fluorescent lights and a handful of plain wooden tables, but that’s fine. The simple, meaty soup dumplings provide all the ambiance you need. Round things out with some wontons and rice cakes." - neha talreja, bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, willa moore
