About This Place

Nestled discreetly beneath the bustling streets of Chinatown in New York City, Fu Zhou Wei Zhong Wei Jia Xiang Feng Wei offers an authentic dive into Fuzhou-style Chinese cuisine that is as much an adventure as it is a feast. This unassuming basement eatery at 88 E Broadway is a true hidden gem, best discovered by those willing to wander off the beaten path and relish genuine, handmade flavors.

The hallmark here is undoubtedly their exquisite dumplings. Whether you crave the Fu Zhou Dumplings with Soup or the perfectly steamed Steamed Pork Buns, each bite bursts with freshness and robust fillings. The dumplings’ delicate skins are cooked to tender perfection, enveloping juicy, savory cores that genuinely sing with traditional Fuzhou seasoning. The Fuzhou Style Wonton Soup and Fuzhou Fish Ball Soup provide comforting depths of flavor, rich in umami and warmth—ideal for an intimate meal that feels deeply satisfying.

The dining experience is uniquely intimate, characterized by a cozy basement setting in what feels like a forgotten old mall. Tables are few and close together, making every visit feel like a shared secret among friends and food lovers alike. While the atmosphere leans boldly into “hole in the wall” territory, it exudes an authenticity that’s often lost in more polished venues. The modest surroundings keep the focus on what truly matters—the exceptional food and the inviting, friendly service.

Juices such as Watermelon, Papaya, Longan, and Lychee provide refreshing, naturally sweet complements to the savory dishes, each served at pocket-friendly prices. For those craving something smaller or an easy breakfast option, the Plain Noodles with Sesame Peanut Sauce or comforting Salted Congee are nourishing choices that showcase the kitchen’s dedication to traditional flavors without pretension.

Reviewers consistently rave about the value and authenticity of Fu Zhou Wei Zhong Wei Jia Xiang Feng Wei. Customers love how, despite its unassuming location and “rough around the edges” ambiance, the dumplings and buns are freshly crafted and expertly made, the service swift, and the prices remarkably reasonable. Many describe it as a true New York City highlight—a place where the adventurous palate is rewarded with unforgettable tastes and an atmosphere brimming with genuine character.

If you find yourself navigating the lively streets of Chinatown, Fu Zhou Wei Zhong Wei Jia Xiang Feng Wei offers an unparalleled opportunity to savor real Fuzhou flavors, experience the charm of a classic, off-the-radar eatery, and reconnect with the rich culinary traditions that make New York’s food scene so vibrant and diverse.

    Definitely hole in the wall, can be tricky to find depending on your navigation system. Located downstairs, in old mall setting which has lost most of tenants. This place worth the search with freshly made dumplings, great service and great food, especially the dumplings. Did I mention the great price and great food. Perfectly steamed dumplings not over done, great fresh filling. Sauce little milder than I would like, some chili oil would be perfect with it. Start the treasure hunt search this place out. The do bulk orders, plenty people picking up orders, and watching them masher fresh dumplings and buns.

    Traveling from Boston to visit this literally hole-on-the-wall place in an abandoned mall under Manhattan bridge in NYC. Service is very quick and food quality is good. The price is very affordable. I spent 16 bucks for a portion that camould feed 2 to 3 people. The atmosphere is quite fun as we share limited eating space with complete strangers.

    A native New Yorker who had been to this spot brought us here. There were no signs and we walked into what seemed like a long ago forgotten place...it was surreal and I almost wondered if we were going to be murdered...but alas, we got to the windowless basement and placed our order for the fried and steamed dumplings, sat at one of the 3 tiny tables and devoured them. Best dumplings I ever had, so reasonably priced it's crazy, and I want to get them again. Soon!

    Amazing dumplings. Cash only but super affordable. 6 soup dumplings for $5 and they’re so flavorful! Tough to find: head into what looks like an abandoned mall then take the stairs down to the lower level and you’ll find it there. Tables and chairs for dining.

    Literal hole-in-the-wall spot in the basement of an abandoned mall in Chinatown — the environment is rough, but the dumplings and bao buns coming out of the (shockingly) clean kitchen were on point. Super flavorful and definitely worth the stop. A dope little spot if you want that real New York City experience.

    The steam meat buns are very tasty, mind you when people on instagram said its juicy but in fact its oily as you can see from my pic. On the other hand, the potstickers are good too. $5.50 for 6 steam buns are super bun cheap !!
