Introducing: Family Meal
Now more than ever, we need to eat well to stay healthy, hopeful, and strong. As everyone does their part in slowing the spread of the virus with social distancing, we want to help by making it easier for you to stock your fridge with wholesome, homestyle foods. That’s why we’re introducing the junzi Family Meal and junzi A La Carte options so that you can safely enjoy junzi at home in any way you’d like.
At junzi 君子食堂, we serve vegetable-forward, fully customizable Chinese bowls & wraps daily. Because we believe good Chinese food should be nourishing, inspiring, and accessible to everyone.
contactless delivery and pickup
The health and safety of our crew members and our community is our top priority. Let’s stay strong together during this special time.
Introducing junzi Lunch Cart.
Zero-fee delivery, hassle-free lunch pick up, without even leaving your building.
With four locations and growing, junzi serves fast-casual style Chinese rice bowls, mixed noodles, salads, and chun bings a.k.a. northern Chinese wraps. At select locations, we run a fun weekend After Hours program, and once in a while, and almost always by way of collaboration, we host a themed tasting menu we call Chef's Study.
“Think casual delicious meets fast, fresh and fun.”
Forbes
“Junzi is bringing unfussy, regional Chinese cuisine to the fast-casual realm.”
Bon Appétit
“Junzi might just be the sweetgreen of Chinese food.”
Vogue
“For the co-founders of junzi, wraps and noodle bowls are more than just lunch–they are cultural ambassadors.”
Food & Wine
“…simple flavors and rich culinary heritage, junzi is using the food-obsessed culture in China to make lunch better.”

Junzi is a young company with big ambitions. We are inspired by Chinese culinary heritage and defined by next-generation cooking, yet we are more than just a destination for fresh, seasonal food. Junzi is passionate about reshaping the narrative of Chinese-American food not only with the meals we share, but also through the communities we build via innovative food collaborations, products, and experiences. We currently operate four fast-casual restaurants in New York, NY and New Haven, CT. Our flagship and test kitchen is conveniently located right next to Bryant Park.
As we grow our team, we’re looking for people who are as passionate about food and as excited to make a positive impact on the community as we are.
