Great food. Thought watermelon, pickles, and pork belly was a weird combo but proved to be delicious. Like the other reviews mentioned, chili crab with the sauce will make you forget the damage it did to your wallet. Citysearch should upgrade this place to $$$.
Pros: Fun. Tasty. Unique. Friendly staff
Cons: Bit pricey

I have been coming to Joes for years now. Since the 1997 issue of best of New York, in New York magazine to be exact. I guess it's safe to say I'm a regular.
I frequent the Flushing location but have been to them all. Pell street is not my favorite. I feel that this location is dirtier, and more hectic than Flushing; BUT and there's a big but. The food at either of the two locations is fantastic!
Any of teh steamed buns are great to start pork or crab, both fantastic, I would order both!
Scallion pancakes are greasy delights!
Wonton soup with chives and shrimp dumplings, add some of teh sauce from the steamed buns (adds a nice flavor).
next the minced pork noodle ( noodles wiht a spicy minced pork sauce) and/ or the shanghai fried flat noodle (the can make this with seafood too, although I am a fan of the pork version).
look out for a special off the menu, teh general taos (with white meat, make sure you specify that), dried sauted shreded beef (spicy beeff with shredded carrots, scallions, and celery all ), or the jumbo crispy prawns shell off (shelled prawns in a spicy meat sauce) are all favs.
Also must have is the shrimp fried rice, the put tons of huge shrimp in there, not those wimpy lil guys or chopped shrimp! Man,, i'm getting hungry.. at this time the only place i can go now is Wo Hop... dont get me started there for some real old school fast food style chinese 24 hours!!!
SICKKK
Pros: Reasonable prices, great food
Cons: not enough space in your stomach

We had a 10pm reservation here on a Saturday night. It was a good thing we had one, because the people that were coming in without one had an hour or more wait. The service was the best we experienced in NYC- by far. The food was also very good.
Pros: service,food
Cons: What are the drawbacks?

The people working were courteous and helpful. the bartender makes outrageously delicious martinis and the food was so good. i had filet mignon, and my wife had salmon. everything was prepared well and full of flavor. we really had a very nice time and cannot wait to come back. maybe over christmas or new years!
Pros: wonderful ambiance, great filet mignon

The place was great and when we walked in we were made to feel so very welcomed. Nick, our server, was so very sweet, funny and attentive. The food was great. The steak was perfectly cooked and my Mom had lobster that was so very succulent and well done. I would definitely recommend it to anyone. It can be a bit pricey, but I always believe that you get what you pay for! Gotta love Roth's and we didn't have to travel all the way downtown!
Pros: Servers were wonderfully attentive and sweet
Cons: The mashed potatoes could have been warmer

Whether one is looking for a unique, family-style dining experience or simply a magnificent meal, Carmine’s is the place to go.
As you step into the lively environment, your senses are awoken as the smell of fresh, home-cooked Italian cuisine wafts into your nose, readying your taste buds for what is to come. The décor is nostalgic: a grand ballroom with high Victorian ceilings, elegant chandeliers, and charming portraits and paintings lining the walls. To the right lies a fully equipped bar, lined with antique, wooden barstools, while in the back sits a grand marble staircase leading up to the second floor. The lighting is neither dim nor bright, and the temperature neither cold nor hot, making the restaurant an ideal place to enjoy a delightful and leisurely meal.
From the moment you are seated, a waiter will introduce him or herself, supply you with a basket of freshly baked bread, and describe the various mouthwatering specials. Each of the restaurant’s waters and waitresses were clean-cut and well-trained, catering to the customer’s every need. The service was helpful and attentive, without being too pushy
Pros: really good
Cons: not bad

My boyfriend and I ended going to Uncle Jack's for his bday. We were running late and couldn't make our reseverations elsewhere. I'm glad we did. Service was phenomenal and the food was great! The porterhouse for two was on point! They also surprised him with a bday dessert as they overheard us talking about his bday. I was gonna tell them on the sly but they heard and did it automatically. How ATTENTIVE is that?? Great, romantic spot for couples. Its pricey but worth it!!! I've added htem to my cell phone address book.
