Willa Moore reviews Nin Hao, a Fujianese restaurant in Prospect Heights, New York, noting its unique character and delicious dishes like Crispy Shrimp and Cumin Lamb Chop, making it a great spot for groups.
This Fujianese restaurant in Prospect Heights offers a unique dining experience with a quirky menu and vibrant atmosphere, complete with a fish tank and eclectic decor. It's a great spot for groups, featuring standout dishes like the universally praised Mapo Tofu and the indulgent Crispy Shrimp. While most of the menu impresses, including a creative cocktail selection, one dish, the Beef Ban Ban Rice Noodle, was noted as a less satisfying option.
The restaurant specializes in Fujianese and Chinese cuisine, with many dishes receiving high praise. Standout items include the highly recommended Mapo Tofu with silky tofu, Crispy Shrimp with sticky caramelized shrimp, Seafood Pancake with a crispy exterior and creamy interior, Fujianese Wonton in Chicken Bone Broth, Typhoon Shelter Bombay Duck for its spice, and Sizzling Pan Cumin Lamb Chop. The Sauteed Egg Tomato with Curry Shrimp is also a flavorful choice. However, the Beef Ban Ban Rice Noodle was noted as a less successful dish.
