I was here a good while ago. The inside feels comfortable and the staff was pretty friendly and helpful among other things telling us that we would probably need another dish for us to be full and indeed we did. The food was less flavorful than many of the other Chinese spots I had been to with the food more reminding me of Cantonese in some dishes at least as they let the more natural/"original" flavors shine which is apparently one of the aspects of Hangzhou cuisine. The portion sizes could have been a bit bigger for one of the main dishes and one appetizer but some dishes were worth it. To drink I had an OEC (or Ordinem Ecentrici Coctores) Yuzu Pilsner which I've had before and is pretty tasty and the otherwise have an interesting cocktail menu which has evolved over time as well as a good amount of teas. Our smaller plates started with the Century Egg With Pickled Green Chili/擂椒皮蛋 for $12 which came with eight topped century eggs. This was tasty and the chilies being pickled was a bit unique than the usual variety found in Szechuan restaurants. I would recommend this as a good intro to this dish as it's a bit less funky and spicy than said other version but it was solid all around. The Braised Duck Leg With Five Spice/杭州卤鸭腿 for $19 was pretty good quality. The red braise was good, the duck had good texture, and there certainly was a lot of five spice flavor. At $19, I'm not sure if it was worth it but the flavors were nice. Our big main dish was the Green Tea Claypot Chicken/外婆茶香鸡 for $48 but it is listed for 3/4 people and could definitely feed two to three provided you order another dish. The chicken which was served in a clay pot which was revealed at the table had a unique yellowish color to it and there were some goji berries on top which was a nice touch. The chicken was very tender and while it didn't taste of green tea, there was a comforting aspect of it and I presume that there were some medicinal herbs within the broth though it was a bit too light in flavor for my liking. It almost reminded me a bit of Korean samgyetang in it's comforting aspect. This was tasty and I would recommend it on a cold winter day if you don't mind a lighter flavored chicken broth. The Hong Shao Rou/外婆红烧肉 or braised pork with steamed buns for $24 was probably the best dish in terms of cost to flavor. The pork was very tender and the greens on the bottom (I believe bamboo shoots) were appreciated though it was a bit less flavorful than many spots I've been to unfortunately. If the flavor was there, this would be easily the best dish, but I can let this partially slide as $24 for this dish is low and the pork belly quality was high. I would recommend this. The Black Pepper Ribeye/黑椒小牛肉 with king oyster mushroom for 34 was better flavored though more dainty in terms of portion space as the meat was cut into tiny pieces. There definitely was black pepper flavor but not too much so and in this case, it worked. The dish had good umami and the little pieces of steak in there were good quality and the mushrooms were also excellent. This was good though pricey for the portion size. We added on the Vegetable Fried Rice/素炒饭 for $12 which was a wise choice. The rice had good texture and a bit of wok flavor and the mix of veggies was a bit more varied than your usual Chinese spot. This was good as well. If you don't mind a less flavored Chinese spot, this place is decent. It's not my preference usually but it's not bad. I described most of the dishes as good so 4 makes sense.

We came here during the soft opening with our Neighor's from Yunnan and Qingdao. We were lucky to walk in for dinner and there was a table available for us. Service was okay, some of the things we ordered they forgot to place for us. So we had to follow up and request again. Or we just didn't want anymore ex; the Crocker fish we ordered but never got. Pan seared pork buns were delicious Portion sizes are more like individual sizes and not like your standard family size style I was accustomed to in the United States.

5 stars. Grandmas home is a relatively new hangzhou cuisine restaurant, and it is amazing!! Came here twice already. The udon noodles are so good, would definitely recommend! The chicken clay pot was also outstanding. It wasn't very tea-like in flavor, which I liked! It was also a whole chicken! The hong shao rou was also very authentic. Green beans were a hit. Everything at this place is so good! Absolutely would recommend to anyone. Service was good. The ambiance was nice. The interior is very modern, and the atmosphere was very nice. They even had white rabbit candy! Great touch.

Grandma's Home opened earlier this year as the first U.S. outpost of a super popular restaurant chain in China, and it's quickly becoming a hidden gem in NYC. the service was quick and the inside is really nicely decorated with artwork on the walls, beautiful lights and dim atmosphere. There's plenty of seating here. what we ordered: Hong shao Rou pork with buns $24 - tender and the fat melts in your mouth. The steamed buns help balance out the saltiness. Soy glazed crispy fish $19 - I like the sweetness of the soy glaze. Crispy skin but soft tender bite. Would go well with rice since it's a little salty. Seafood braised udon $18 - pork floss and century old egg with minced pork, shrimp and udon! Deliciousss and not too salty. Good amount of baby shrimp for the price. Unique but simple dish that we loved! Coconut pudding $12 - strong coconut flavor. Red bean cream is fragrant too and sesame pearls are nicely chewy. Ozzie Palmer $9 - lime soda with a hint of osmanthus Eye of the phoenix $9 - has some spice from chili

Thoroughly impressed by every dish! Tofu Skin Rolls: the truffle flavor was a great touch, loved the texture of the tofu skin Xiao Long Bao: they are pretty small but very authentic Crispy Skin Chicken: really tender chicken, paired so nicely with the sauce Seafood Braised Udon: the minced pork was a nice touch, and the udon texture was perfect - this was my favorite dish! Pork Belly Stir-Fry: tender pork belly with a spicy kick Stir-fried String Bean: even such a simple vegetable dish was very well made The service was fast, and the staff were all very friendly. The interior is elegant. Overall I highly recommend this restaurant.

Solid place for Chinese/Hangzhou cuisine. We grabbed a lunch reservation on a weekend and were seated on arrival. Service is very friendly though felt that they may need an additional 1-2 waiters/waitress to help service the tables. We got the soup dumplings and kung pao shrimp as well as the green beans and everything was overall good and flavorful. Portions felt a tad on the smaller side but we ordered bowls of rice to help with that. I'd say the interior is the highlight here. Beautifully designed restaurant and the day we went, it was more on the quieter side which we appreciated. Recommend trying.

Pretty good food! Welcome to the neighborhood! We came here on a Sunday, party of 3 and had a fun and great time. Ordered a bunch of dishes to share. My favorite was the eggplant and peppers. Most of the dishes were spicy but in a good way. The Yiao-Twe with stuffed shrimp was also amazing. My son loved the chicken dumplings. Would have been 5/5 but service was on the slower side. Took us awhile to get our check.

Stepping into Grandma's House is a treat for the eyes--the interior and ambiance are stunning, with beautifully curated decorations and a superb attention to detail. Even the chopstick holders, shaped like different Chinese zodiac animals, add a delightful and memorable touch. The service was excellent, with waiters frequently refilling water or tea and checking in as needed, ensuring a seamless dining experience. We ordered the century eggs with green chili, green tea chicken clay pot, and loofah melon with broth. While everything was tasty, none of the dishes were particularly standout. The green tea chicken, for example, didn't have a noticeable green tea flavor, but it was still enjoyable. Overall, Grandma's House delivered a solid dining experience with delicious food, though nothing that would necessarily draw us back. It might be a great spot to bring out-of-town guests who are craving Chinese food and want a unique and well-decorated setting.

I had an okay dinner at Grandma's Home! Food was pretty good but kind of pricey. We dined as a party of 3 and ordered - 1 app (fish) - 1 chicken dish - 1 veggie dish - split 2 bowls of rice ($2 each) 2 things to note: I personally feel skeptical if a Chinese restaurant 1) charges for white rice/doesn't come with protein dishes 2) not seeing Asian staff. All of the servers that night were not Asian, which I found interesting; does not always indicate anything is wrong, but it takes a bit more to convince me... The decor and vibes are really nice. I like the booth seating options as well. Very comfy (altho the table was the tiniest bit too high for me). I liked the appetizer of the Soy Glazed Crispy Fish. It is VERY crispy, it would have been nice to order an appetizer that was more juicy to compliment. I love the soy glaze sauce though and wish there was more to dip in/put on the dish. We ordered the Green Tea Claypot Chicken which was $50. We got a LOT of chicken but we did have to "carve" it ourselves, and perhaps it was almost too much chicken. It says on the menu it feeds 3-4 people, but I felt it's doable to share with 5 others, especially if you order plenty of dishes, that would be suffice. The Crispy Eggplant & Blistered Peppers was my favorite. Great flavor and the veggies had a nice crisp but still had some good sauce. I also felt they came around with water VERY often. One of my biggest pet peeves: every 5 minutes our conversation is interrupted by the staff refilling water, no lie. If you want to refill our water, please don't use the smallest water cups and not keep a water pitcher on the table. I love my water, sometimes it's too much!!
