The food here is delicious! Everything is served in large portions and everything came out super hot and tasted fresh. My sesame chicken was tender, flavorful and hot and those BBQ spare ribs are definitely worth coming again for! 🔥 I highly recommend this place if you want some really delicious Chinese food - this is a super low-key hidden gem 💎

I tried the vegetable dumplings at Uncle Ted’s, and they were absolutely delicious. The dumplings arrived steaming hot in a traditional bamboo basket, and the vibrant green wrappers immediately caught my attention. The filling was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned, with a satisfying texture in every bite. Paired with the dipping sauce, they had a wonderful balance of savory taste without being too heavy. If you’re visiting Uncle Ted’s, these vegetable dumplings are definitely worth…

My husband and I have had so many great meals at Ted's! The soup dumplings are perfection. Gio and the staff are friendly and welcoming. The decor is fun, the furniture is cozy, love the new cool red booths! The ambiance screams good vibes and urban hipster cool. The food is always fresh and among the best Chinese in the city hands down. Prices are a deal! It's in the heart of the village - RUN don't walk here.

Absolutley delicious!! Our favorite Chinese in the city. Reasonable prices ($40 fed 3 of us) and high quality food. Beef and broccoli was so tender and the broccoli was flavorful. Pork fried rice was some of the best fried rice my husband and i have ever eaten. Highly recommend, we will be back!

Best Greenwich Village Chinese food . Large portions. Love their pork egg rolls and the spicy cauliflower appetizer. Good lunch specials . Been eating here since they were on Bleecker St. so glad they are back at their new location on 8th st.
