What People Are Saying About Excellent Pork Chop House

The Excellent Pork Chop House may be downscale, but it isn't a dive: While everything is unapologetically economical (fluorescents, linoleum, Styrofoam), it's also spotless, cheerful and user-friendly. A photo album of the dishes makes ordering a breeze, even for neophytes. The pork chop, as advertised, is excellent. Lightly coated with spices, greaselessly fried and juicy, the top-billed porcine delicacy shows up over rice, with a bowl of noodle soup or as a side dish. For starters, there's cold dishes like seaweed salad and pickled cucumbers, or branch out to a fried chicken leg or fish ball soup. For dessert, pick your own toppings for Taiwanese shaved ice--a kind of Asian Sno-Cone, covered with goodies.

This place is very friendly and very CLEAN(rare for Chinatown)! I'm from Taiwan and I feel at home here. No Chinatown-bad-attitudes. The food is authentically made Taiwanese. I recommend trying the 8 Treasure Ice for dessert!

Let me tell you there are two good Pork Chop places in Chinatown. This is definitely one of them. Not the most elaborate dishes, but the food tastes good and it is very affordable. It definitely isn't "fine dinning" but when it come to taste, I'm all over this one.

I brought my whole family to this small restaurant on Lunar New Year and despite the crowd, we were seated quickly and the food was delicious! The best bubble tea I've had in New York City and very authentic Taiwanese beef noodle soup. The whole meal came to $40.00 with tip for 5 people!
