Absolutely horrible dinner. People were walking out left and right. We were about to when our dinner arrived after over 1.5 hours of waiting. Appeared they cared more about filling the take out orders than the in house meals. It was chaotic and the staff was rude- no explanation. There was only one table that received the desired service- seems they were “friendly “ with the staff. NEVER AGAIN

Extensive menu. It has many of the dishes that almost all Chinese food places have but also have many special dishes that are much less usual to find. Everything that I had with my date was very good. The waiter helped us select some of the dishes and I'm glad she did.

Every step of the way could have been better. The place is dark and seems ill-kept. The food tastes as if they forgot to add the ingredient that would appeal to taste-buds. The waiters seemed overwhelmed even when the place was half empty. There are some very good Chinese restaurants that charge less.

The food is just wonderful at this peaceful restaurant. We've been happy with the beautifully prepared, fresh, and delicious main dishes every time we've eaten there —this was our fifth or sixth visit. I especially enjoyed the spicy kung pao shrimp. We enthusiastically recommend Wa Jeal for fans of fine Chinese dining.

Terrific Szechuan restaurant. Excellent heat level - hot but not too hot. We love the hot & sour soup, the cold sesame noodles and the eggplant in garlic sauce. Our guests enjoyed the mei fun tofu/vegetable dish and the sauteed bok choi. Will return!

The food was inedible. The pork main entree was tasteless, we left the pork dumplings on the serving dish uneaten, the sesame shrimp had some shells on it and was sweetened almost beyond eating. The pancakes were dry and served only with soy sauce…no plum sauce. Will not return. I should have taken heed of the reviews I read. Woeful

We eat her often. It is a small local place on the UES. Food is solid. We do have two frequent issues with the food: 1. For me, not quite spicy enough for Shicuan food. I always have to ask for hot pepper oil on the side. 2. Not enough vegetables for most entré dishes. Plenty of meat, but we like more veg in our food. The place is well run and does a lot of take out. We live a 5 minute walk away, so we have never had the take out.

This is a long term Sichuan restaurant on 2nd Ave in the UES. We went early, so it was quiet, but. a steady stream of takeout was going out the door. Bar - limited bar with good service (no Cointreau for example - forgiven) Food: very good. Not too salty, excellent ingredients and well cooked. Chicken with Cashews - well done, brown sauce, very tasty. Shrimp with peanuts and chili peppers. Very good. Shrimp cooked just right. Excellent dish. Hot and Sour soup with very nice. Total bill with drinks much more affordable than usual on the UES.

We generally love Wa Jeal, so last night's poor service was a bit of a shock. Two of our party were served while one sat waiting for quite a while--we had to finally ask when his dinner would arrive. It is unusual for a restaurant in New York to serve a table when one meal is not yet ready, so we were surprised and not very happy. No one ever asked how our meal was or came by unless called over (for more tea, to replace the lukewarm soup, frankly for anything at all). We would have ordered dessert but none was offered. When we arrived home I noticed that one item meant to be in the takeout bag was missing. A small item, but one that I had specifically asked be included and confirmed by the server. So, all in all, a big disappointment and departure from the service we've had in the past.

We love Wa Jeal, both for ordering in and returning to dine indoors. The space is so relaxing and lovely, with delightful and soothing music playing. The service is excellent, with engaging servers who patiently explain each dish. The food is top quality, copious portions, and beautifully presented. We will always return. Thanks!
