Reviews
The moment I walked in, I fell in love with the atmosphere. It feels like a true hidden gem away from the chaotic tourist traps. The space is cozy, warm, and inviting, with a really cool aesthetic that makes you feel instantly relaxed after a long day of walking around the city. The staff was also wonderful—super friendly and attentive to us visitors.
Now, onto the food, because it was spectacular. We started with the Steamed Chicken Dumplings, and they were hands down some of the best dumplings I have ever had. The wrappers were perfectly thin and delicate (clearly handmade), and the chicken filling was so savory and juicy. They were served steaming hot, and the dipping sauce they came with was the perfect tangy complement. I highly recommend starting with these.
For my main course, I ordered the Fried Chicken Ramen (Chicken Katsu Ramen), and it completely blew me away. I wasn’t sure what to expect with fried chicken in soup, but it works perfectly. The chicken cutlet was massive—breaded to perfection with a serious crunch that held up beautifully against the rich broth. The broth itself was creamy, flavorful, and soul-warming, and the noodles had that perfect springy chewiness.
Peng’s Noodle Folk is the kind of place I wish I had back home. If you are visiting NYC and find yourself near the Upper East Side, do not skip this place. It was a 10/10 experience and I will definitely be coming back the next time I am in town!
I was sad they had to move 15 blocks away from their original location a few years ago, so it’s harder for me to get there. However, the new spot has a pleasing aesthetic and relaxing outdoor space. I wish them all the best. And customers new and old are in for an experience!
Highly recommended!!
The ramen broth was rich, deeply savory, and comforting without being too heavy. The pork ribs were melt-in-your-mouth tender with just the right amount of fat – full of flavor and perfectly marbled. Noodles had that chewy, springy bite that tells you they’re freshly made or well-sourced. Every spoonful felt like a warm hug.
The cold Sapporo on draft was served in a tall glass, crisp and refreshing. Honestly, one of the best pairings I’ve had in a while.
The vibe inside is cozy and modern – wood tables, minimalist design, and a calm energy that makes you want to linger. Service was fast, friendly, and attentive.
Whether you’re a ramen regular or just craving something satisfying and well-executed, Peng’s hits the mark. Definitely coming back for another bowl.
The service is quick and welcoming.
I suggest you try the tofu and refreshing drinks.
I liked the vegetable dumplings more than the meat ones. It would have been tastier if the filling had been juicier.
We ordered the dumplings and the shrimp with soy sauce as starters, and the fried noodles with beef.
Everything was very tasty!
The restaurant was very beautiful inside, and the staff were really nice!
There were other dishes on the menu that looked great — we might come back to try the ramen, which looked delicious from what we saw on other people’s tables.
