Located in the Upper West side of the city near Columbia University, the Columbia Cottage is aptly named. The restaurant opened a few years ago in a small space to accommodate the local students and faculty of the university, and also the employees of the nearby St. Luke’s Hospital.

Greasy, disgusting, didn't finish it. No chopsticks delivered with chinese food? What place does that? The delivery guy was also rude.

Could have been worse, but ... -- I ordered 3 items and asked for brown rice with each one. Got all white rice. -- The "roast" duck tasted like it had been microwaved. -- Lamb in the lamb dish was skimpy and had little flavor.

i live two blocks away and the food arrived in 15 minutes! this is the only authentic chinese restaurant in the neighbourhood (at least on seamlessweb). try those under "shanghai delight & szechuan delicacies." it rarely fails me. they are very good at shanghai cuisine, but not szechuan or hunan style. anything from the grill are great too.

I just moved to the neighborhood a few months ago and was looking for a decent, inexpensive Chinese restaurant. I read the reviews, and even though they said that the delivery guy was rude, I didn't let that impact my order. As it turns out though, I should have given it more thought. The guy called me from outside on the street and asked me to come down. When I was waiting for the elevator, HE CALLED AGAIN because he thought i was taking too long. The food is bland and flavorless. I ordered more than I wanted tonight so I could have leftovers, but I don't even want to eat them. The place may be fast and cheap, but so not worth it. I'd rather pay more and get good service and flavorful food. If I wanted to leave my apartment, I wouldn't order DELIVERY.

It is very cheap, and there are very good lunch and dinner specials. Delivery is very quick, and the food...is decent.

the wonton soup is great (really fatty broth). some dishes are OK, and some are good, but overall, pretty solid. entrees are large enough to split, making the prices excellent for the quality. one of the best restaurants in morningside heights, though that's of course meager praise.

Solidly tasty

I'm not very picky, but everything I had off the menu was sub-par. I had the Shanghai dumplings which came soggy in a sesame sauce and not at all spicy. The Pad Thai was not very tasty and also seemed soggy. The Sesame Chicken? You guessed it, soggy.. but so many place serve it this way, I might have forgiven it if everything didn't suck. (Empire on Bway makes it nice and crispy!) There are much better Chinese places in the same delivery zone.

order from here all the time. cheap, consistent, lots of healthy and vegetarian options. delicious black bean sauce.

Hot & sour soup was neither; house special chicken was tasteless. Perhaps an anomoly, but I won't waste my money on this one again.

The food was ok, but they were fast in delivering the food...The sesame chicken was not so great; I would advise against that selection but I would give it another try

Food was okay, but the delivery guy was a real jerk. Loudly banged the bag along the stairs as he walked up and actually cursed at me in Chinese as he handed the bag to me. (He assumed I couldn't understand.) He might have been unhappy with my tip, but it was pretty atrocious service.
