Everything is amazing here but you can skip the wings, there's a spice on there that just might kill you buzz.

Best Mapo tofu in NYC but should ask for a half amount of salt otherwise you ended up have to drink a gallon of water.
Niffy SpectorMarch 24, 2013
Food is spicy and so is the hostess. Be nice to Chelsea! No more free beer, go to Todd's Mill or Hair of the Dog to wait. Or both!
Greig RoselliJune 25, 2013
While waiting for a table the custom of giving out free beer to customers as they wait has stopped, due to someone complaining and fear of losing their liquor license (according to the host).

Cumin lamb is amazing! Rich and fall-off-the-bone tender with crusty exterior. Accompanying veg is slightly caramelized. Yum.

It’s gotten a lot of hype but one bite into Mission Chinese Food’s thrice-cooked bacon and you’ll be a believer. The tofu cakes sprinkled throughout the dish soak up a lot of the unctuous flavor.

Get a couple of starters and entrees to share, they're all pretty much amazing.

Green papaya salad with banana - refreshing and cooling after the three dragon chicken wings

If you want a really new culinary experience, try the "Married Couples Beef". Your mouth will be delightfully confused and numb.
Mike ChungOctober 25, 2016
Spicy Sichuan, and a great uni appetizer!
Josephine SonMay 26, 2012
Lives up to the hype! Get the bacon & rice cakes and salt cod fried rice. Warning when they say spicy, they mean it!!

Super fun and delicious

(1) Order bread service + caviar (2) Mix caviar into butter (3) order everything else (4) pass out happy
Judy NguyenMay 11, 2013
Go with a bunch of people so you can attempt to try as much of the menu as possible. Use both bathrooms but especially the left one.
Gigi AgiusJanuary 30, 2015
The whole roasted duck is the best duck I've ever eaten. Get it, it's worth the $$
Nick CreeganApril 6, 2016
Chicken wings, beef jerky fried rice, thrice cooked bacon, bread and butter, pastrami
Parker ChambersFebruary 1, 2017
Not really worth the wait. Trendy. Reco for cool people who are afraid to venture into actual china town.

Salt and Pepper Lamp rib tips along with the standard stuff. Best place on earth!!
Beth BatesJune 26, 2013
Don't miss the thrice cooked bacon or mapo tofu. If you don't want to wait 2+ hours for a table, call in an order for takeout.
Reshad SabedAugust 1, 2015
Never tasted anything as spicy as the wings. Worth a try. Overall a delightful Chinese dining experience
Nath MJune 17, 2013
For the SF transplants that are homesick, a serving of Salt Cod Fried Rice will transport you straight to 18th and Mission.
Devin A. BrownNovember 18, 2012
Delicious piggy tail cooked in cola. Thrice-cooked bacon with rice pasta discs no joke--its hot and tasty.
Natalie ShpiegelSeptember 25, 2016
Beef brisket with bok choy is amazing! Also get the bread with kefir
D SicJuly 20, 2016
Spicy food. Don't skip the chicken wings!
Andrew ContiDecember 27, 2015
Go for the dim sum brunch. It's a great way to try everything.

I believe in karma. I believe the thrice-cooked bacon was created for me because of something nice I once did. It spoke to me.
Tom LeeApril 1, 2013
True, I gave more stars to other restaurants. Mission Chinese Food, which got two, is young and probably still growing. The same dish might taste very different from one night to the next. But both...
DaveMarch 11, 2015
Incredible. Kung pao pastrami. Wish I had also ordered the salt cod fried rice.
jason pFebruary 16, 2015
Pork belly and ribs very good. Chicken wings very spicy, very good.
Marina TunesSeptember 9, 2018
go with at least 4 starving pax and order all the chef’s specialties.
EvaJune 26, 2012
Mapo Tofu. Thrice Cooked Bacon. Kung Pao Pastrami. The spice gets real. Watch yo'self. Oh, and free beer while u wait!

Thrice cooked bacon, salt cod fried rice, king pao pastrami and a special. That's it. Don't worry about a thing. Derricious.
Jon SteinbackJuly 13, 2012
astoundingly, the vegan versions of the pork jowl and the thrice cooked bacon are amazing.
Chloe McCloskeyNovember 21, 2015
Phenomenal, adventurous food. Quite trendy with very cool decor.
Rebecca SJanuary 28, 2013
Worth finding the hidden gem. Definitely order the sizzling cumin lamb and the salt cod fried rice.
Robert BeckerMay 29, 2013
Cream sickle fanta for dinner. Pork belly and mashed cucumbers for dessert
Monica LoJune 6, 2013
Taiwanese clams with caramel soy, thrice cooked bacon and salt cod fried rice = phenomenal.

Chicken wings, celery!, Mapo tofu, prime rib if you can get it!
Davina KimJanuary 31, 2015
Everyone knows about the food... But their music selection is awesome as well! :)
Ruben GuerreroAugust 24, 2013
Very trendy right now, no reservations but really great (and very spicy) food! $$$
John GladyszMay 8, 2013
The twin peaks themed bathroom by itself is worth the trip
Lorraine VavulJune 11, 2014
Complex flavors, yummy. Leave the kids at home unless they have a bold, adventurous pallet.
AlexanderDecember 22, 2014
Anything from the wood oven, squid ink noodles, winter melon soup
Dane FeldmanAugust 20, 2013
Get there right at 5:30 and you won't have to wait. Don't skimp on the cocktails-- creative and strong.
Stephanie DownesJune 7, 2015
Best cocktail menu in the city.
Ha-ti NguyenMay 8, 2017
blue crab rice, cumin lamb ribs, chongqing wings 🔥
Paul HyunFebruary 12, 2013
Go for lunch. The food is interesting and a lot of fun, but not wait-in-line-for-2-hrs good!
@JaumePrimeroJuly 13, 2012
Thrice cooked bacon and salt cod fried rice: a lethal combination worthy of a repeat visit!
Yifei YanOctober 27, 2012
Try their thrice cooked bacon (shanghai rice cake). It is REALLY HOT but also REALLY GOOD!
