House of Nanking

Frommer's Review

This place would be strictly a tourist joint if it weren't for the die-hard fans who happily wait -- sometimes up to an hour -- for a coveted seat at this inconspicuous little restaurant serving Shanghai-style cuisine. Order the requisite pot stickers, green-onion-and-shrimp pancakes with peanut sauce, or any number of pork, rice, beef, seafood, chicken, or vegetable dishes from the menu, but I suggest you trust the waiter when he recommends a special. Even with an expansion that doubled the available space, seating is tight, so prepare to be bumped around a bit and don't expect perky or attentive service -- it's all part of the Nanking experience.
