👵 NYC's Grandma’s House – Overhyped & Underwhelming

The much-anticipated Grandma’s House has opened in NYC, but the experience fell short of the buzz. With a limited menu, small portions, and spotty service, it’s hard to justify the hype. 🌟 Highlights: Braised Pork Belly (Hong Shao Rou) – Tender, savory, and delicious with steamed buns. Tea-Scented Chicken – Surprisingly tender and flavorful (despite mixed reviews). 🍖 Lowlights: Sweet & Sour Pork – Over-sauced and not crispy. Shrimp Dumplings – Taste like frozen supermarket variety. Stir-Fried Greens with Sakura Shrimp – Barely any shrimp, bland overall. 🍚 Service Issues: Rice took forever, and staff nearly cleared a half-eaten chicken dish without asking. Mostly non-Chinese speaking staff added to the communication gaps. At $40–$50 per person, it’s not a disaster — but don’t expect an authentic “grandma’s cooking” experience. 📍 Grandma’s House – NYC 💰 $40–$50 per person #GrandmasHouseNYC #NYCChinese #Overhyped #NYCEats #NYCRestaurants #ServiceFail #NYCFoodie #NotWorthTheWait #ManageExpectations #NYCDining
