Steam

Bland looking from outside but their dishes are absolutely delicious! The “Wined Chicken” aka “Drunken Chicken” is the best I’ve ever tasted in NYC area. The shrimp dumplings are big, juicy and very flavorful. Soup dumplings are also very good. I will be back for more. 👍

Me, my sister and mom visited yesterday afternoon, we enjoyed our food. We got steamed dumplings, General TSO chicken and Steak and Peppers. The portion of food for the lunch special was good and the soy sauce was delicious. For three meals, 1 appetizer, 3 sodas and 3 seltzer waters, the bill was only $85 (not including tip). We will definitely visit again.

Last week I had lunch at Steam. While exploring Sixth Avenue I saw this Chinese restaurant and went in. The menu had many choices and I ordered pork soup dumplings and cold noodles with sesame sauce. The noodles came first and with the first bite tasted unusual. I had two more bites and left it as it was unappetizing. The wrappers of the soup dumplings were thick but I ate all as I was hungry and now had only one dish to satiate my hunger. The server asked me why I had left the noodles and I told her that the same dish at Hwa Yuan Szechuan was superb. The restaurant had many customers mostly Caucasian and some Asian. This should have been a red signal but I was famished and walked in. An elderly lady sat down next to me and before the menu was given she asked for the Lo Mein lunch special. This too was a sign. As I was leaving, the lady at the front desk told me that before the pandemic they had two restaurants in Chinatown and now they have only this one which is six years old. There is a restroom here and the interior is decorated in a pleasant manner. $22 out of the window for an unappetizing lunch. I will not be making a second visit.

calm vibes and very cozy AMBIENCE, good amount of seating options and attentive waitstaff. The Sparkling peach sake is a must try - So refreshing and fruity!! The Wuxi spare pork ribs were SO TENDER, FALLING OFF THE BONE AND THE onion petals were an excellent touch marinating at the bottom of the pot. You can never go wrong with the original chicken soup dumplings or try the soup dumplings sampler if you’re feeling adventurous!!

I dined at Steam today and had a great experience. The food was authentic and really flavorful. Everyone in the reviews mentioned how amazing their soups were, and they were right – the soup was fantastic. The atmosphere was pleasant, and the service was attentive. I spent $50 for appetizer, a main course, dessert, and a glass of wine, which I found to be quite reasonable. I’d definitely recommend Steam for anyone looking for Chinese food. Five stars!

We come to this restaurant whenever we visit New York. On this visit, the two of us ordered a chicken stir-fried soft noodle dish and the salted egg-yolk combination shrimp & squid dish. Both dishes were delicious. Prices are reasonable for NY. If you are looking for authentic Chinese/ Cantonese food, I would recommend this restaurant. The service is always quick and efficient, and the toilet is very clean!

I landed in New York with the intention on getting soup dumplings and Steam was a great stop. I think back to this spot often and sad I only got to try it once. Make sure you visit!

Came here for their lunch special. The Pepper Steak Special was great along with the Pork Fries Dumplings. The service was a bit rushed, but the host at the time was polite.
