Hui Restaurant and Bar

When it comes curbing a Chinese food craving on the Upper East Side, you might be tired of less than stellar takeout and inauthentic fusion cuisine. Hui Restaurant and Bar offers carefully crafted, authentic Szechuan dishes with full, familiar flavor profiles that won’t punish your taste buds. Hui boasts simple traditional ingredients like black and wood ear mushrooms, bamboo shoots and sweet bean sauce. Start with hot or cold staples like Szechuan-style dumplings, fried Taiwan sausage, or salted edamame. For your main course, try the seafood clay pot (shrimp, scallops, calamari, oyster sauce) or the cumin lamb leg (green pepper, onion, parsley, chili-cumin). Entrees are served with your choice chicken, beef, pork, lamb, tofu, fish or shrimp. Stopping in for lunch? For less than $10  you’ll get a delectable entree, choice of salad or cold appetizer, rice, and soup! Finish your meal with one of Hui’s incredible desserts, including green tea cake, Chendu sweet rice ball soup or rice pudding with red bean, walnut, lotus and sticky rice.
