This calm little East Village bistro produces a host of dishes that, while not mind-bendingly exotic, achieve a good balance of strong Asian flavors and Western presentation. O.G. offers up to ten dumplings—from pan-fried shrimp and leek to steamed curried beef with a balsamic vinegar and soy dipping sauce. With the exception of the dependably crowd-pleasing five-spice roast chicken, entrées aren’t quite as snackable. For dessert: more dumplings—this time filled with Asian pear and served with litchi ice cream. — Matt Gross
