About this business
One of the finest, most elegant Chinese restaurants in the city, this well-appointed Midtown spot is perhaps best known as a fixture of the 1980s art scene. Andy Warhol and the rest of his crew were devoted patrons. Although those days are long gone, Mr. Chow still lives on because of the quality of the food and the great space and its reputation. Menu highlights include crunchy whole shrimp and filet mignon. The two-course prix fixe is reasonably priced and is a great choice for lunch; there is another location in Tribeca i... read more

Maybe I have been spoiled by having a Chinese girlfriend, but I could not believe that I just spent $220 for Chinese food. Even if you we saw some stars, the bill is not worth the admission price and I have had better chinese food in Flushing and down in Chinatown. And what is with the applause for someone making Shanghi noodles? There is definitely too much hype for this place. And to top it all off, the coat check had a $5 bill on the plate. They are definitely trying to milk you for everything you have. If money is no obj... read more
mr.hows it should be called – lets just say i went to mr.chows with a couple of my girlfriends. we had heard the food was good and with all the famous people going there it must have good food right. wrong, how more wrong could one person be. you wait forever for a table. then the waiter informs you it would be best if he ordered for you to enjoy your experience better. i never thought ordering food was such task. she said she was there before and ordered thereselves and the expeierce was bad. the food is no diffrent thatn a... read more
THE Place to be – I've been to Mr. Chow on few occasions, and i had the best time ever. The stuff is very friendly and helpful, the food is amazing ('till this day I never ate better food ). The crowd is one of a kind. Lot's of famous people, you name it, they all go there !!! It's a bit expensive, but well worth it . You won't find better food and service for the price you pay at MR. CHOW. I highly recommend this restaurant !!!
stop whining and enjoy the food – if your looking to be treated like royalty this isnt the place for you. ive eaten here probably 50 times and now the guys know me and cater to me well but they didnt at first. i was at the bar waiting and saw paris hiltons parents waiting right next to me. they waited as long as i did. anyway the food is unreal you just have to knwo what to get. having tried everything on the menu you should get the following: chicken satay apps, shrimp toast (make sure to use the sweet brown sauce), and chi... read more
A+++ Restaurant – An amazing restaurant, great food + service, very classy atmosphere but very very expensive.
This Place is AMAZING – OK... First let me tell you if you dont want to spend a lot of money then DONT go here and complain about it tomorrow. If money is not a worry...or you have a nice expensive accout the DO IT. The food is expensive and amazing. The Chicken Satay is to die for. Order the Squab, Bejing Chicken and Crispy Beef. The green shrip and Gamblers duck are also the best. So dont let the waiter order for you... take my food reccomendations and get ready to be amazed. Just dont complain when you have a huge bill.
Don't listen to these whiners – I have been going to Mr. Chow's for years, and having the waiters order for you is the point! And yes, it is expensive, deal with it, or go to Taco Bell. The Squab lettuce wraps are out of this world, as is the spicy Green Shrimp, Crunchy Orange Beef, Crunchy Seaweed and Chicken Skewers. I take clients there all the time, and they all love it.
Terrible Experience – When my family comes to visit me in the City, we always end up at Mr. Chow for dinner at least once during their visit. THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN. Even with our reservation, they had us waiting at the bar for over an hour. When they did seat us, we all got comfortable at the table, only to be removed from the table by the host due to a "misunderstanding" with another party. Mr. Chow lost our business for this treatment.
Will never go back – The food is average and the service is insulting. The waiter will tell you some cockamamee story about how he should order for you and when the bill comes, they charge you an outrageous amount and don't itemize it out for you. Considering how much they try to charge you, the servers are rude and lack common courtesy. On the east side, you're much better off going to CHIN CHIN. MR. K'S, or even Our Place Shanghai. I'll never go back and will certainly tell friends to avoid it.
