Yu Kitchen
This spot is Permanently Closed.
Yu Kitchen serves delicious food from all over the central and northern regions of China. On one side of the menu, you’ll notice cumin lamb or beef soup served with pita bread from the northwestern part of the country. Then at the bottom of the same page, you’ll see Chongqing chicken and Chengdu dry pot meals. Whenever we eat here, we always gravitate towards the Sichuan dishes.
For a while, our go-to spot for Sichuan food on the Upper West Side was always the Han Dynasty location on 85th Street. That place is still useful to keep in mind, but we’d also recommend trying Yu Kitchen on Broadway for takeout or a casual meal - especially for anyone living or working near Columbia.
