Press picks, until locals rank their own Top 5s. Sourced from the local food press. As seen in The Infatuation. Updated July 2026.
Double Luck Chinese · Upper East Side
Double Luck combines theatrical tableside service with a menu that reaches well past familiar takeout standards. The Infatuation calls out orange chicken finished with flame at the table, along with mapo tofu, Hunan fish, and char siu ribs. Order the mapo tofu or Hunan fish for a savory centerpiece, then add the orange chicken if the tableside finish appeals, using the ribs as a shareable bridge between the dishes.
Sichuan Fish Restaurant · North Miami Beach
Sichuan Fish centers its menu on the layered chile, peppercorn, and aromatic flavors associated with its namesake region. The Infatuation highlights whole fish, mapo tofu, and chicken wontons, a combination that can anchor a complete table. Order a whole fish for the group, add the mapo tofu, and use the wontons as a smaller opening dish so the meal moves through several textures without repeating the same sauce.
King Palace Chinese BBQ · North Miami Beach
King Palace focuses on Cantonese barbecue, with roasted meats displayed as the organizing idea rather than a side note. The Infatuation directs attention to char siu, Peking duck, and crispy pork belly. Order a mixed roast-meat plate so the sweet glaze of the char siu, the duck's richer meat, and the pork belly's crackling skin can be tasted together, then add rice or vegetables to absorb the drippings.
Tropical Chinese Restaurant · Westchester
Tropical Chinese has served Westchester since 1984 and remains closely associated with dim sum. The Infatuation names siu mai, shrimp rice rolls, and roast-pork buns among the dishes worth building a table around. Order those three together to cover steamed dumplings, delicate rice noodles, and baked or steamed buns, then supplement them with another cart or kitchen item based on the size of the group.
Kon Chau Chinese Restaurant · Westchester
Kon Chau offers a classic dim sum meal on Bird Road, with a menu suited to ordering several dishes for the table. The Infatuation highlights West lake soup, shumai, and pork buns as useful starting points. Begin with the soup, then add the shumai and buns so the meal moves from a shared bowl into individual bites, leaving room for another dumpling or vegetable dish if the table is larger.
