fast delivery...bland food. couldn't even get chicken and broccoli right. still searching for the perfect Chinese spot

Columbia students and Morningside locals pile in for traditional (and reasonably priced) Chinese fare accompanied by free white wine.

At this simply decorated Morningside Heights staple, traditional dishes like sesame chicken and chicken stir-fry with chili peppers top the list of popular entrees. The menu's "make your own dish" option is also a hit with finicky and diet-conscious diners. In-house portions are generous; for those who'd rather gorge at home, everything on the menu can be ordered for delivery. Just keep in mind that the restaurant's free carafes of white wine are eat-in only.

Very good

Food at Columbia Cottage is tasty and well prepared. My favorites include Orange Beef, Beef Lo Mein, and Crispy Shredded Beef. The ambience is pleasant and relaxing. Overall, a great neighborhood spot.

• Pros: inexpensive, great service, great food

Food-eh... Wine-Free

by efc2012

Columbia Cottage (or Cottage as the undergrads like to say) may be the best value in the city. The entrees are a bit overpriced as chinese goes (by say $1) but when dining in, you get as much box wine as you can drink for free. Where else in the city can you go get completely tanked and have a good meal for the price of chinese takeout.

• Pros: Free Wine, Cheap
• Cons: Bitter Waitresses
