Jimmy's House - New York

I'm not really a fan of the meatballs, but you absolutely have to try the soup dumplings—they're amazing! <3

The food is excellent! This is the only place in the area where you can find a delicious Lion Head Meatball.

During my search for delicious cumin beef or lamb, I stumbled upon this restaurant in the NYU Dental area. Not only did the dish come with rice for $21 in cash, but the host also asked if I needed water or extra rice. I would rate the dish a 7.5 out of 10; it could have been improved with more vegetables or colorful peppers. Although there were no birdseye chilies, it was still quite spicy. The portion size was generous, allowing me to take half home for later. I’ve been frustrated by expensive chef’s special dishes that don’t include basic white rice, so it's refreshing to find places that still make it a standard part of the meal.

The service was pleasant, but the food lacked any flavor. It was spicy and extremely salty, but there was no other taste to enjoy. Unfortunately, I wouldn't return.

Got the generals tsos again and it was mostly gristle and hard chunks. Very bad meat quality this time. Also got the beef noodle soup and it was gross. The beef was a very tough cut mostly connective tissue the noodles were too soft. My friend got the chicken fried rice which was good. This place is wildly inconsistent. They should raise quality and price.Room is small. Service was quick to pick up trash. I won't be back even though it's directly below my hotel.
