South of the Clouds 云之南 Greenwich Village

"Stopped by for dinner while in the NYU area and it feels like the kind of place that just fits the neighborhood. Very casual setup, nothing fancy. A lot of students coming through, people eating solo or in small groups — pretty easy spot to drop into without thinking too much. Food is more on the home-style side. Not overly heavy or overly seasoned, which actually makes it easier to come back to. Portions are decent, and prices are reasonable for this part of the city. It’s not really a “destination” restaurant, but more of a reliable, everyday kind of place. If you’re around NYU, I can see this becoming part of a regular rotation."

"South of Cloud has become my comfort spot for a warm, delicious meal. Their signature Crossing the Bridge Rice Noodles are a complete experience - the rich broth, fresh ingredients, and assembly process make it both fun and incredibly tasty. The Steam Pot Chicken is another must-order; the soup is clear, flavorful, and feels nourishing. We balanced it with their simple but perfectly cooked tofu and greens."

"Very great food. The broth is great and full of vegetables and meat. I recommend Signature Yunnan Crossing Bridge which was enough for two people with cold dish platter appetizer. Enjoy this place and the service is pretty quick."

"Such good comfort food! Pretty fast and casual & satisfying home-y food. Really good broths and noodles, plus big portions for the price. Great for sharing and conveniently located. The coconut jelly is a sleeper hit!"
