A great experience of Chinese fine dining with friends. Every single dish that we ordered was beautifully presented and filled with a wonderful depth and complexity of flavors. The atmosphere is relaxed and the dining room is elegant without being stuffy. Service was formal but friendly. Will definitely come back for a special event.

We found this new restaurant because our friend did the graphic design for them. I heard some rumor saying the founders are two Columbia University students. No matter it is true or not, they obviously have a very good taste in design and food. The dishes are well prepared and also taste good. Price a little high tho 😀

This is the best Chinese food I have ever eaten in New York! ! ! First of all, the environment of this restaurant made me shine. Secondly, their service was very warm and gave me a feeling of home! Finally, it's their dishes that look very delicious and their food is delicious! I think they are better than many Michelin restaurants!

Been meaning to try here for a while because of the preorder chef's special menu items. The century egg is prepared well without the ammonia smell. Drypot cauliflower is great, as well as the knife work on the pineappled squid. Was not big fan of the goat, bit chewy. Liked the ribbon fish, most of the table were not fans cause not used to the bones fillets. Good service, dishes came out pretty fast.

I waited two years to revisit this lovely restaurant. Around the corner from St John Divine and down the road from MET cloisters It’s a perfect spot for fresh hot soup and veggies along with heaping servings of animal protein. They do allot of take out however the restaurant seating is clean and well maintained. We will be back.

Just had an unforgettable dining experience at Atlas Kitchen in the Upper West Side, right near Columbia University. This place is a true gem! 💎 The restaurant’s massive space and stunning decor are inspired by mountains and the sea, making it a feast for the eyes before you even take your first bite. The ambiance is just perfect for a special night out or a cozy meal with friends or a big party. Atlas Kitchen serves up a mix of classic Chinese, Hunanese, and Sichuan cuisines, and every dish is a work of art. From the vibrant flavors to the exquisite presentation, it’s clear they put a lot of love into their food. 🌶️🍜 I highly recommend checking out this spot if you’re in NYC. We ordered ⤵️ Sliced Pork belly with garlic sauce Spicy wood ear duo Tender poached chicken with green chili sauce Stewed chicken with ginseng soup Stewed spare rib with dry long bean Slow braised ribbon fish in brown sauce Fried rice ball with fresh fruits Black salted egg custard bun Pinot Noir Follow @spinx17 for more NTC food recs!

Overall, mild-taste Chinese food suitable for people who prefer lightly taste-Chinese food. Not as spicy and salty comparing to the authentic style. I enjoyed the Mapo tofu and the Dumplings but not the sweet-sour chicken (too sweet and too much batter)

Tasty authentic Chinese food. It’s expensive for lunch, and they charged extra for a small bowl of ordinary rice! However, the food was very good and perhaps it wouldn’t feel as pricey at dinner. Lots of Chinese people eating there, many of whom appeared to be Columbia students. If you’re looking for standard Chinese American food, this is not the place for you. Only one bathroom and it was not clean. Regardless, I’m looking forward to eating here again.

The food here is Michelin star worthy — I believe they have been recognized by Michelin as Bib Gourmand restaurant. The rose black tea in particular was incredibly delicious. They wouldn’t let us know where they sourced the tea from though, lol, but I guess it’s part of the secrets of the trade. The rest of the food was great but not as great as the first time that we went there. The floor was incredibly waxy and slippery so that felt very dangerous. Otherwise it was overall a good experience.

The food was fairly good, but bland (with one exception - the clams actually had a decent amount of spice), and service was inattentive and barely pleasant. The space could use some attention. I'd eat here if I lived nearby, but wouldn't make the trip uptown for it.

I ordered takeout — stir-fried pork trotters. There were pitifully few trotters; it was mostly chili peppers. The fish with tofu was also pretty mediocre — the texture of the fish was grainy, which was weird. You even have to buy rice separately. Overall, very poor value for money.

Picked up food and absolutely no one was there, that should have been a red flag. My wontons were rock hard inside and uncooked, and the beef was more fat than meat. My partners food was too salty to eat. Trust me and go somewhere else!

This is one of my local go-to spots. I frequently order takeout from Atlas Kitchen and in my latest order, their sliced beef in red chili soup had a large bug in it. (As pictured.) I was obviously horrified, and contacted the restaurant. I left my contact to a server and asked for the owner to reach out but they've been radio silent. In addition to the obvious hygienic issue, I'm disappointed in the restaurant that they don't care enough to call back a regular.
