Sichuan Bistro – CLOSED

By Angela · On September 2, 2016

Editor’s note updated 1/3/17 – Sichuan Bistro is now closed. 

A small neighborhood Chinese Restaurant in Gramercy. Friendly staff with yummy dumplings but lacking in kid-friendly amenities.  Side note – don’t ask for someone named Marco. 

Basics:

Cuisine: Chinese
Address: 391 2nd Ave btwn 21st + 22nd
Area: Gramercy
Phone: 10010
Hours: M-Sun 11AM-10PM
Price: $
Menu: Link

Kid Friendliness:

Stroller parking: NO
Room Around Tables For Stroller: NO
Accessible (No Stairs): YES
Double Stroller Friendly: NO
Table Activity: NO
Kids Menu: NO
Half Portions Available: YES
Changing Table Men’s: NO
Changing Table Women’s: NO
Booster Seats: NO
High Chairs: YES

The Verdict:

Most appropriate for kids. The space is small so infants or toddlers in strollers will not be easy.
Good for lunch or dinner.

Sippy Cup Rating:

2.0 Stars (2.0 / 5)

 

This small 2nd Avenue space has had a tough go at it. In the last year we’ve seen it change hands a number of times. Most recently it was inhabited by Marco’s Wine Bar & Tapas which, after a few false starts and reopenings, ultimately closed. They did have a lovely sign though which the industrious new owners decided to keep and with that Marco’s – A Taste of China was born!

Sunny and I went there a week after it opened and shared two orders of dumplings which were delectable. Unfortunately the bones of the place are still the same. It is a small space with lots of tables so maneuvering  a stroller in the restaurant is tough. In terms of other kid-friendly amenities the new Marco’s does do slightly better on our Sippy Cup rating than its predecessor in that they offer high chairs and smaller portions upon request but overall we cannot give it our Sippy Cup stamp of approval. Thumbs up to the dumplings though – worth keeping Marco’s on your list for an order-in night.

Bonus Points:

  • Cute local playground two blocks away. Augustus St Gaudens located at 19th and 2nd.
