ICYMI: Good news for Mee Noodle Shop

Photo Friday by Stacie Joy

A happy update from Friday in case you missed it: Mee Noodle Shop & Grill on First Avenue will remain open after the building's landlord agreed to lower the monthly rent. 

Staff had previously said the longtime neighborhood favorite would close on July 15 because of rising costs and declining business. 

Instead, they're continuing to serve lunch and dinner ... and remaining grateful to residents for their support.

Read the full story here. 

And call and pick up your order: (212) 260-7838.

    Is crispy pan fried noodles sometimes known as Chow Mein available at Mee? Can anyone confirm?

    This week I had the thin Cantonese noodles with roast pork and bok choy with broth and it was excellent!
