The kitchen focuses on simple plates and each dish is created by hand. Menu highlights include cold jicama rolls, wonton soups, buckwheat noodle salads and plenty of filling sandwiches, try the steak & roasted peppers with garlic mayo, it is one of their best. Other options include their amazing dinner plates such as the New Zeal... read more

Simple goodness – I work nearby and I eat here at least once a week, if not more. It is very healthy yet cleverly delicious. You just have to try it to believe it! People who work there are always wonderful. In fact, I think I'm going to have to go there for lunch today. I really can't recommend just one dish because they're ALL good. It's pretty small and it gets packed during lunch time, so you have to go early or slightly late. If you get it to pick-up or deliever, you don't have to worry about that though.

Yum Foods – This place, although very small and lacks any kind of ambiance makes up for it with its food...Its simply Delicious...everything. I went there with my girlfriend, based on the previous reviews and was amazed. The food, and all the sauces it comes with are Just Great. Really no other words to describe it. The only thing thats better, is the price. you can fill your self up, pig out, and go away with a full wallet. I've been to some expensive places in the city, and the food there wasnt worth the money. I'd gladly ... read more

My Favorite Place – I noticed this place while sitting in traffic trying to get into the Holland tunnel. It is now my favorite place. Very small, understated, incredible incredible food. So simple and perfect. I always get the honey and soy chicken wing appetizer. Then its either the miso glazed salmon or anyone of the salads. The ginger tea is exceptional. Writing this makes me want to go there tomorrow. The staff is great. Always so pleasant.

Best dumplings in town – I tried the snow pea dumplings once and I just can't resist going back for them. The best dumplings in town. Chinatown can't compare. The menu is simple, food quality is superb, service is personable and price can't be beat! The only disadvantage is its undertone local diner ambience. So even though I love this place, I don't think it's a place for parents in town or dates...

Inventive touches at bargain prices make this Asian-comfort diner a cut above. – The Scene Right by the approach to the Holland Tunnel, a red awning invites passers-by into this sweet, low-frills spot. It has a diner feel, with industrial flooring and yellow tables. Warmly welcoming service makes it comfortable, though the gloomy lighting leaves room for improvement. The young clientele is drawn from neighboring Soho and Chinatown. The Food The Asian comfort food works: There is a touch of attentive flair to everything, even... read more

I just can't get enough of this place! – I have now eaten at Mooncake Foods a few dozen times and I cannot come up with enough good things to say about it. I have tried almost everything on the menu, including the whipped taro, and I have never once been dissapointed. The food is exceptional; each dish has a unique twist, whether it is the spicy wasabi mayo on the tuna burger (which is fabulous) or a spicy lime vinagarette on a salad, Mooncakes does not shy away from trying something new. There are few restraunts that offer ... read more

Mooncakes – Tasty, healthy, friendly, and reasonably priced. I eat there weekly for lunch and especially like their assortment of wonton noodle soups. Though you can purchase a wonton noodle soup just as tasty down the street in Chinatown for 1/2 the price, the "No MSG" policy makes it well worth it. Appetizers are reasonably priced while the rest of the menu is "Soho" priced.

Whats on Watts? – No prentension, no reservations needed, no "scene", no "hipsters", no attitudes, no overpriced food, no B&T, no Eurotrash, no socialites, no credit cards, and no loud music. Great food and great people at an affordable price make this Asian-influenced diner near the Holland Tunnel one of NY's best kept secrets.
