Located in the Upper East Side, Tang By MR. SUN offers a unique fusion of Eastern and Western culinary traditions. Our founder envisioned a place where Chinese cuisine is celebrated for its elegance, not just the familiar heavy, oily dishes. We pride ourselves on using premium ingredients, such as filet mignon for our Beef & Broccoli and tiger prawns in our Shrimp Satay. Our culinary journey began with a small eatery near Rockefeller Center, where our seasoned chefs, recruited from China, honed their skills in adapting authentic Chinese flavors to suit the local palate. We've since added a young chef to our team, bringing new flair and modern presentation to our dishes. We invite you to try our signature dishes, including the flavorful Curry Veggies, spicy Kung Pao Chicken, rich Beijing Chicken, savory Beef Rib, luxurious Truffle Scallion Pancake, indulgent Lobster Crunchy Noodles, and sumptuous Creamy King Crab Udon. Join us at Tang to discover a new, refined side of Chinese cuisine.

    Highly rated restaurant caught my eye, very close to subway and The Guggenheim. Walked over for lunch and loved every minute of this meal. Dee took great care of us. We enjoyed delicious soups, pork dumplings, and two lunch entree portions with brown rice. We had General Tsos chicken and Beef with Scallions. It was so affordable and delicious in a quaint, friendly setting. Trying to figure out how to get back there during this trip. It was delicious.
