Everything was fantastic. It was my first time eating at Columbia Cottage. I ordered from the Lunch Menu which was super cheap! I got Broccoli in Garlic Sauce. The menu didn't say whether it came with white rice or not, but when the waiter gave me my dish lo and behold there was white rice. The broccoli was fresh and cooked to perfection. The sauce was delicious and just spicy enough. The white rice was fantastic and not overcooked at all. The waiter we had was also fantastic, always coming over to refill my glass of water. Overall, I loved it, and I will be going back again for more.

The food here is consistently tasty and economical. The service is good. The lunch special is a good deal and the food is fresh and well prepared.

Due to an "incident" a few weeks ago they are no longer serving unlimited free wine with dinner anymore. The first caraf we had (4 people) was what we expected from free boxed wine but the second and last caraf (because we were told only 1/2 caraf per entree = 2 small glasses) was diluted down to the point where we were basically drinking wine flavored water. The fun is over at this location. It used to be a great place for good food and good drinking, but no longer. Goodbye Columbia Cottage!

Every dish I've tried here is waaaay too salty... you get a free carafe of wine if you dine in, but the over-priced food and crappy-but-free wine sort of cancels each other out. It's a decent place to sit and talk, though, and the service is fine.

Subpar sesame chicken, and the other dishes I have tried are not very good.

Very good food, cheap, and good service.

Free Wine. With every entree ordered in. So, if you want to go for Chinese, Columbia Cottage might just be your best bet in Morningside Heights. With that said, you can get way better, way less expensive Chinese food delivered (Search: Wai Lee).
