Master Critic Review
Amy's Restaurant
7.7
Amy's Restaurant is a neighborhood Chinese spot on West 207th that combines a broad Cantonese-style menu with an unusually deep lineup of vegetarian dishes. Many locals treat it as their default for house fried rice, noodle dishes, and roast meats, especially when they want options for both meat eaters and vegetarians at the same table. Quality can be uneven, but when it hits, it delivers comforting, non-greasy plates that keep regulars coming back.
Must-Try Dishes:
House Fried Rice, Singaporean Rice Noodles, Peking Dumplings
