Never disappoints!
This restaurant is in my top three in the city. The Peking duck is the best I have ever had. Every time we go in we get excellent food and excellent service. Sarah always goes "Above and Beyond" to make sure all my husband's dietary needs are met and she always remembers us when we come in. She is an asset to Decoy and any industry which needs great customer service!

Their expensive Peking Duck is bland and tasteless and literally have no flavor if you don’t dip in their any of the three boring sauces. There used to be a great duck place in midtown Sixth Ave but that closed. Better yet, go cheaper and better in Chinatown.

What this lady doesn’t know about cocktails is not work knowing. We sat at the bar she made us feel very comfortable throughout our dinner/drinks and made sure we was OK. The duck was amazing aswell best we have ever eating by a long way unbelievable the skin was perfect. A must if u come to New York.
One in a crowd
This place came highly recommended through the ZAGAT 2020 guide. It was a little hard to fin so you need to know it is in the bsement off the street from its' suster restaurant RedFarm. Ther seating consists on one long table which if you are by the wall may make getting in and out an adventure. I was a solo diner and was placed between two couples. It is comfirtbale (think more boarding school dinners - elbows tucked in). The food choice is vast and it all looked superb but as a solo diner I had to forgo all of that was the fixed price main was the peking duck which is why everyone was there. given each duck is the same size I was eating for two!
That siad it was superb I have had table service of peking duck in Hong Kong and this competes on every level - the skin was ultar thin and crsipy and yet the duck below was extremely moist. It came with three sauces for the pancakes - tranditional hoisin, cranberry and what I can only describe as peanut and jelly! I stuck to the hoisin until it ran out and moved on to the sweeter cranberry which gave the pabcake a different spin. Somewhat refreshing but I did prefer the trdaitional hoisin and would probably have preferred a bigger dish of this.
The price was very reasonable give the ambiance which was freindly and fun as well as the quakity of the food. Would definitely recommend and also go again but this time with someone to share so I can try all the other dishes other than just PK. :-)
I wanted to give 5 stars but...
After seeing videos and reading reviews we were very excited to go here. We were visiting NYC for the New Year and this was a special dinner to celebrate with another couple. The location is unusual as it is downstairs in a small space with a long communal table, which is fine. Service is prompt ant attentive.
We all had the fixed price Duck dinner which we made reservations for a few weeks in advance.
The meal was a mix of things: The appetizers were all good. the meal is a little confusing. Basically you get shared apps and what they call 2 Mains with the duck for 4. We were told we were getting the entire duck but it looked more like half of a duck. We had the soup dumplings, very tasty, The Fois, also very good, Shrimp dumplings and two mains were Sea Bass, I did not have, and Lobster. The Lobster was overcooked and salty, the others good.
The main reason I give 4 stars instead of 5 is that, one of the reasons we chose Decoy was a Youtube video showing how the ducks are made and swerved. The video shows really juicy and fatty duck and a some modern sauces for the prep.
Basically the Duck we had was over cooked, the skin was not tasty but overly crisped and there was not a lot of meat, and what was there was overcooked.
I have had amazing peking duck where the skin and meat are juicy and tender and this had a flat quality. It was not bad but not great and for a dinner that cost upwards of $500 with no booze I would expect consistency and excellence. Not sure I would go back. I am not saying it was a bad meal but overpriced for what was served and disappointing in terms of the quality of the Duck.
what ti expect
food was good. some different stuff. they offer a prix fixe dinner for $80/person. lots of food and good service.
the restaurant is in a below sidewalk location. so cold winter air comes flowing in every time the door is open. you sit at either the bar or a community long table. you are right up against strangers and your and their conversations are heard.
we had 3 people and we got lucky because they put odd number of guests at an end. like the 'head of the table' placement. so our conversation was within the three of us. we also arrived first thing and got the end table away from the door.
if you are against the wall, you have to twist and contort to exit. very tight seating.
didn't like the piped in music. too loud and bad selection.
it was expensive, glad I did it, no need to go back.
The Duck is great but the fish skin - that was the star
I have had Peking Duck many times and this one was certainly good. What stood out was the starter of the fried fish skin and sauces. I had no idea what to expect and didn’t expect to like it. Boy was I wrong! My son and I both went to town on that. Wash it down with a very cold Tsing Tao and all I can say is YUM! The truffle fried rice with egg was uniquely delicious as well. The pictures are the foie gras app, the fish skin and then the Duck.

Best Peking duck I have ever had. Prefix menu with lots of small plates and main dishes. The food didn’t disappoint with good variety and great flavors, however there was so much food we had to take some home.
You need to make reservations. Place is small.
Service was decent.
We went for the Peking Duck and it was wonderful!
You definitely need reservations. The place is small. Not at all upscale in ambience. No matter: the food was a delight! With your Peking duck dinner you get some pickles and veggie starters and even some fried shrimp. Then comes - dah DAH! - the duck, luscious, crunchy skin and moist meat; three dipping sauces. Delicious. We asked for a ginger panna cotta with berries for dessert. Mmmm. Totally recommendable!
