METROMIX SAYS: Long before Williamsburg became too — wait for it! — hip for its own good, M Shanghai Bistro was already serving wonderfully elevated Chinese food to a nabe in desperate need of Chinese grub beyond greasy stir-fried takeout. Now, they've opened this opened late-night noodle bar a few blocks down, offering a variety of noodle bowls ($7-$8), pan-fried noodle dishes ($7-$8) and appetizers ($4-$6). Six noodles are available—spinach, pulled, wonton, etc.—which can be mix-matched in dishes like sliced pork belly soup (the broths that take up to 24 hours to prep) or crispy double-pan-fried noodles with meat or veggies. The place's counter-style seating can squeeze in about 26, and a patio area out back is in the works come warmer months. The clincher: They're also open until 6 a.m. Munchies!

WE SAY: It's not the Chinese food you're used to. M's menu is packed with low-priced, big-flavored variations on traditional stir-fry over rice dishes and inspired creations like "Freddy Mercury's Meatballs". All ingredients are always fresh and the meals are never greasy. This restaurant is one of the better choices for vegetarians in the 'hood as well. However, I got stuck with a ten-dollar martini there once, so beware the drink prices.

NY MAG SAYS: Entrée names like "Double Happiness" and "Happy Family" have staying power, but this modern Asian spot has dispensed with tradition by naming plates after friends and family, based on what they liked during previews. Vivian's Curry Seafood, for instance, is a favorite of owner Vivian Chan, and David's Salted Pepper Prawns is the go-to of her husband David Chiu. The fave of head chef Mark Cheng (formerly of Mr. Chow and Philippe) is the Crispy Whole Fish
