Chow House 德悦轩

Great food (just need to be a bit more consistent), okay service and always make you feel like eating at a Chinese aunt’s house (compliment). This is my go-to Chinese in West Village.
When to had Luna New Year dinner here everything was great but the fish was a bit stinky which was a bummer because it was the main dish.
Shrimp with peanuts was surprisingly good and not too spicy as it looks, will definitely add this to my go-to menu. Can’t go wrong if you want something quick and yummy in the village!

After Church, My Chinese friend who wanted to take me and another member of the church out to explore of Chinese food.
She picked Chow House to be the place to hanging out.
I love Chinese food but with my friend, she shows me different type of Chinese food so from now on I have more knowledge when I go to Chinese restaurant. From starter, we have dumpling soup that stuck in a dumpling.
Sauteed Snow pea leaves was terrific! Duck with bun is good.
The oily dish is my Chinese friend idea.
She just wants to show us the food that is common for Sichuan people.
I don't really like it because it is too much oil.
Lamb with dried chili is okay, a bit too much chilly and salty.
Coconut water in can is too milky, I thought it will be clear and lighter. Restaurant has good seating and wonderful decoration.
Service is also nice and friendly.

Place is a bit small but the food is definitely authentic and delicious.
Advice is to be there with everyone on time. Here for a birthday celebration and I wouldn’t suggest that for a big group.
The place is small and everyone would have to crowd in a little.
The restaurant is well decorated with simple furniture and Asian theme. Food can be hit or miss.
Most of the dishes are good especially their spicy chicken and Peking duck.
I would say it’s Szechuan food and they use really good quality.
I can sense they don’t hold back on spice and quality used. Service is good and attentive.
We didn’t feel rushed as we were last group to leave.
