Food: beef empanada

Restaurant: Chanta Casa de Empanadas

Location: Midtown, 8th Ave between 52nd & 53rd St

Cost: ~$5 per empanada

Takeout Rec: Yes!

Empanadas are one of my favorite lunch time snacks. The staff at Chanta are friendly and willing to answer any questions you may have about the menu. I usually just get one that they pack in a little pouch, great for eating on the go. If you do order more, they'll pack it in a sturdy box. Highly recommend this spot for takeout.

When did Indian takeout get so expensive?? $25 for a basic dish, $8 for naan? I see prices raising for inflation across other takeouts like Chinese but the Indian takeout price seems extreme

did not get a free soda or eggroll when it says any purchase over 25$ can get one or the other on menu but her reply was not option when order online, is this normal?

did not get a discount or anything when ordering online just did it to fight less with the language barrier...

Looking for solid, reliable sushi for takeout or delivery- needs to be fresh, not too expensive, and near the Upper East Side. Doesn't need to be fancy, just looking for something delicious!

Hey All!

My business partner and I just launched our kitchen residency in Williamsburg! We're both restaurant veterans with a combined 30 years experience, and have experience in top kitchens such as Le Bernadin and Momofuku, as sous chefs and managers.

Our concept is Brazilian American Street food, very approachable bar style food to fit the bar we're located in called Please Tell Me, located at 749 Metropolitan Ave. 

After years of slaving away for others in restaurants in nyc, we decided to try our luck with our own residency and it definitely hasn't been easy. Any and all support would be greatly appreciated.

Its not Sriracha, and I've been trying to figure it out for years.

I tried using the hot sauce packets (can't find a bottle) but that doesn't seem to be what they use with the food.

Anyone know what kind of hot sauce they do use ?

Does anyone know the recipe for NYC Chinese restaurant barbecue sauce or the name of the possible brand they buy? I've been looking for years and have yet to find anything.

They have great buy one get one free delivery deals every month!

Hosting a summer dinner party 25-30 ppl and want to serve some good quality bbq food. Looking for restaurant/catering groups recs that could order from (within 3mi of Manhattan)

Recently tried this spot, their char siu and roasted pork are worth trying. Huge portions for $8.

I've been trying so hard to find it. It's a small restaurant, a really small restaurant, the kind of hole in the wall place that's easy to miss. It doesn't have a lot of seating options so I guess they're mostly takeout. Anyway, it has amazing sushi. I also think it said Sushi Haven on the door but that's not the name of the place according to google maps, or maybe it is, I just can't find it. Can anyone help me out please? I need to find this place to take my girlfriend there.

I think the best takeout curry spot is Laut.

I'll go first - Montagu's Gusto.

Really good sandwiches (one is enough for two people).

Their sides are also generously portioned and very tasty (I like their breaded chicken).

Whenever I eat out (or even order takeout), I try not to spend too much and tend to go for restaurants that aren't too pricey but still serve awesome food (Hey Yuet, Mala Project, Teppen Ramen, etc.).

Every week, I'll visit or order delivery from 2-3 of my favorite spots. I'll tell you guys about how I maximize rewards and cashback on every restaurant visit, and how much I was able to roughly save.

Was told about this recently, I’ve known about it for a while.
