The restaurant has a strong smell of old oils to their wood or something. They forgot to put our lo mein to the order and we asked to cancel but they insisted to cook when we asked for check. We ended up asking to pack home and we paid. We were eating other food okay, but other table ordered stinky tofu and that smell ruined our dining experience. It was the strongest stinky tofu smell we’ve ever smelled (we had Chinese in our table and confirmed). We ordered steamed live fish which said market price. We didn’t expect $75 for this fish which we didn’t ask when ordering so we know it’s our fault. However, the fish is chewy (not fresh) and definitely isn’t worth $75. I’d have given 3-4 stars until we smelled stinky tofu. They should have some kinda plan for stinky tofu. We wanted to leave as soon as possible but had to wait for lo mein because they wanted to serve it to us.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your experience. Regarding the lo mein, our kitchen prepares dishes in the order they are received, and by the time your cancellation request came in, it had already started cooking. If it were still uncooked, we would have gladly canceled it.

We also want to clarify that we do not serve stinky tofu, and there is no such item on our menu. We understand how certain smells can affect a dining experience.

As for the steamed live fish, we do list it at market price, and we understand how important transparency is. Live fish is one of our signature dishes and is served to nearly every table. It may not have matched your personal taste, but we can assure you it is always fresh.

We appreciate your comments and will review them with our team to continue improving. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention.

华裔与其他族裔,不公平对待 Unfair treatment among different ethnic groups
Reply from Congee Village 2025.11.25
We want to make it very clear that we are an Asian family-owned business that has served this community for over 30 years, and we welcome every customer with the same level of respect and hospitality, regardless of background.
We take great pride in treating all guests equally, and any suggestion of racial bias is both inaccurate and deeply hurtful to our team, who work hard every day to create a warm and inclusive environment.
We remain committed to serving everyone with fairness, kindness, and the same welcoming standard we've upheld for decades.

Price too high for the quality of food. Service is usually bad, you have to ask for everything several times. They won't replenish water and tea. Etc.

Have a double date at Congee last night. We shared: juicy soup dumplings, chicken fried rice, Chinese vegetable with black fungus, steak cube with asparagus, & fried pork ribs. We each had 1 wine/beer. Bill was $154. Very affordable and generous portions - especially the Chinese veg with fungus (which was delicious)! The server brought us 1 incorrect item, which they replaced pleasantly and quickly. Hassle-free. We were having such a pleasant time I forgot to take pics. I highly recommend-especially if you like communal dining with family/friends. Great place for sharing! Will def come back.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the soup dumplings, fried rice, vegetables with black fungus, steak cubes, and pork ribs — and that you found the portions generous and the pricing reasonable. We truly appreciate your kind words.
We’re also glad the team was able to quickly correct the mistaken item and make the experience hassle-free. We work very hard to maintain both quality and service here in New York City, even as food and labor costs continue to rise, so feedback like yours really means a lot to us.
We’re happy you had such a pleasant double-date night (even without photos!), and we couldn’t agree more — Congee Village is all about sharing and enjoying great food with family and friends. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon! 🙏✨

Great authentic Cantonese cuisine, awesome chicken, rice roll, seafood porridge, and fresh vegetables. Service was excellent, and the owner even offered dessert on the house. Love the whole experience, please do come and have a taste! 太好吃了,地地道道的老广菜,荔湾艇仔粥,豉汁排骨肠粉煲,梅菜扣肉,淮山鸡肉煲,还有上汤菜苗都好好吃。服务很贴心、很细致,环境好,装饰也漂亮。在美老广人真是回家啦!

9/10 Congee Village delivers a flavorful and satisfying dining experience. The dishes were packed with delicious Asian spices, and everything—from the main plates to the soups—tasted great. Generous portion sizes and a warm, lively atmosphere make it a great spot for a hearty, authentic meal in Chinatown.

There’s also an authentic Chaozhou (Teochew) restaurant in New York that’s great for a late-night bite or dinner. Their congee, rice noodles, and noodle soups are all signature comfort dishes. And if you’re a seafood lover, definitely try their chilled crab. 在紐約的正宗潮州菜館,凍蟹味道一流,但價錢也不便宜。

Thank you so much for the thoughtful review and for sharing such nice photos! We’re glad you enjoyed our dishes — from the congee and noodle soups to the chilled crab. We know the crab is a bit of a splurge, but we’re happy to hear you found it flavorful and authentic.
We truly appreciate your support and hope to welcome you back again soon 🙏🦀✨

since1996. 소고기 초펀 누들, 삼판 콘지, 세서미치킨 주문. 초펀은 넓은 쌀국수 면과 잘 볶아진 소고기, 숙주가 볶아진 대표 메뉴. 면발 하나하나에 기름과 간이 적당히 베여 있고, 불맛이 매력적. 간이 세지 않아 은근 계속 먹게되는 맛. 콘지는 따뜻하고 푹 퍼진 부드러운 죽. 고기, 땅콩과 고수가 들어있어 감칠맛과 향이 매력. 세서미 치킨은 한 입 크기로 살코기만 튀겨냈고, 폭신한 튀김. 은은한 단맛이 도는 양념. 양이 모두 넉넉한 가성비 좋은 곳. 맛있게 잘 먹고 갑니다.

I do not know why you'd go here given the many places on offer in the area. But, wide menu with nice staff and lots of seating.

Love coming here on a chilly day and getting their congee. Pictured here is their lobster congee, it’s absolutely delicious. Thick, creamy, and hot. Service is always welcoming, and the decor is amazing. I feel like I’m in the rain forest and it adds to the whole experience. Love this place!
