In Short – In a lustrous orange room, given a rustic feel by wooden carvings and artistic touches, Our Place serves an array of Shanghai dishes alongside more common offerings. Specialties include striped bass sauteed in shaoxing wine, jellyfish salad, lion's-head meatballs, soup dumplings, and more. More familiar New York Chinese dishes are available as well.

Worst service and terrible food

by bwpark22 at Citysearch

This restaurant is one of the terrible service places in New York. Tonight (11/8/08) we had services from manager and other staff. The food was worst. We had stomach problem after we got to home. Never go to the place to eat. Chinese food cannot be trusted.

  • Pros: outside signing
  • Cons: staff attitude, food & sanitizing conditions

Obnoxious Manager had the audacity to tell us our tip was unacceptable.

by nycfoodieinmidtown at Citysearch

I have never written a bad review but this time I have no choice. To begin with, the staff was impatient because we only had appetizers. (As if we owed it to them to order more.) The last straw was that the Owner/manager actually came to our table after we paid the bill to tell us that our tip was not enough (and he was very surly about it, telling us that 'This is New York.'). News flash, genius:

1. Tips are discretionary. And we had already given 15%.

2. We are from New York, so we recognize obnoxious when we see it. We are never coming back.

3. No wonder the place was practically empty in the middle of the dinner rush hour in midtown.

Delicious Food, Wonderful Table Service

by wadinglove at Citysearch

I recently came for lunch to Our Place and was delighted with a friendly smile when I walked in the restaurant. I was seated almost immediately and greeted by my server with water and a smile. I ordered from the lunch menu and was greatly surprised at how big the portions were. Overall I was really happy with the quality, quantity, and the service that was given to me!

  • Pros: delicious chinese food
