Hao Noodle Chelsea

THIS IS THE PLACE!!!!Main event of my food tours in NY. Best Chinese food, ambiance, dessert, customer service!Attention to detail is excellent. I love this place so much. They go so far out of their way to make you feel like family. This is my favorite restaurant in NY and we fly from Miami to eat here.

The food does not taste that great. We got the Kung pow chicken and it had a weird sweet taste to it. That seemed very jarring. They did ask us if we wanted to add an extra dumpling because we had more people than number of pieces The service was overall not bad, although there was nothing too special about it either. They do not have an open bar.

I liked this place! It's quite large and well-decorated so it's nice for bigger groups. Our group of 8 shared pea shoots, fish in clay pot, chicken, soup dumplings, and thinly sliced pork belly.I thought the proteins were overall alright; the pork belly and chicken were a bit dry. But the fish was delicious! We also loved the pea shoots and the XLB were solid.

The scallion noodles were the star dish, 5/5. Noodles were perfectly cooked and flavorful, the mushrooms really enhanced the dish. The other dishes, including the pork belly appetizer, spicy dumplings, beef noodle soup and cilantro beef were okay. I'm not sure I would pay those prices for those dishes again. If I returned I would definitely get the scallion noodles again. Service was great. Atmosphere was great, not too noisy but also lively. They do take reservations which is convenient.

Genuinely fantastic dining experience! My partner & I had our Valentine's Day date here, and I appreciated that there was no silly price fix menu. Just great food, great service, and gorgeous atmosphere.

Been meaning to visit and finally made it here last weekend! It got busy around past noon so I'm glad we made a reservation. I really appreciated that they had options for you to customize certain dishes to make them vegetarian friendly. The mapo tofu was exceptionally silky smooth. Our favorite dish by far and a must order. We were a bit disappointed that the spicy garlic eggplant was actually more sweet than anything which wasn't very authentic. Moreover the chili pepper ratio to green beans was a bit too high in another dish. I'm giving them 4 stars though for having good service and one of the most thoughtful restrooms I've stepped foot in! They have dental picks, mouthwash, pads, etc. as well as a heated toilet which I totally did not expect but was glad I was able to see firsthand.

Loved it! Such a beautiful and fun restaurant! The main dining is situated with a large sky light with beautiful plants inside. Our favorite dish was the eight spice tofu! Melts in your mouth and fun flavors! Crispy cucumbers were tasty with some spice. The scallion oilNoodles were tasty. The kung pao chicken had a good flavor, a little too sweet for me but overall the food was great. Service was good. Bathrooms were cool with a heated toilet seat, mouth wash dispenser, and other fun toiletries!

We got hungry while in the area and didn't want to wait in lines in the Chelsea Market, so stumbled across this!FOODFood prices were a bit steep, but not out of the norm. We wanted something light so split dumplings (only came with 3 total) and dandan noodles. Both were delicious, albeit a touch small for the cost.AMBIANCEThe decor, plants and vibes in here are so great! A beautiful place to eat.AMENITIESThe amenities they provide at the front desk and in the bathrooms deserve special recognition! I've NEVER seen such an extensive offering of amenities: mouthwash, q-tips, floss, makeup remover, and SO much more. It was really impressive!

We came here before closer to when they first opened and were back again for lunch. Was with a group for a lunch reservation and were seated promptly upon entering. Service was friendly though we did ask for a cup of rice which never came though we ended up being full so worked out in the end.Food itself is flavorful and pretty good. Im not that good with spicy food and definitely overestimated my tongue again cause a few dishes were a bit too hot. Though definitely appreciated the flavors incorporated.The place itself is cute and well designed. It's clean and would say it's a good place to try with a group as well.

Came here for early dinner on a Sunday and was seated immediately. The food was so delicious. My favorites were the cucumbers and the fish. SOO GOOOD!The dining area was very serene and intimate.I can't wait to come back.
