👍👍 Really good Chinese takeout place! I got the Singapore rice noodle and the portions are really filling. The lady that runs the restaurant (and also opened it!) is very kind. She immigrated to the US when she was 11 and has been here for over 20 years. 10/10 recommend if you’re looking for a Chinese...

    Really good Chinese takeout place! I got the Singapore rice noodle and the portions are really filling. The lady that runs the restaurant (and also opened it!) is very kind. She immigrated to the US when she was 11 and has been here for over 20 years. 10/10 recommend if you’re looking for a Chinese takeout fix. There aren’t really places to sit here so don’t expect to dine-in. If you want to save on extra charges, pay in cash!

    My roomie said this place was good, it in fact is NOT. I wish I could tell him how bad his taste is but I don’t want to be rude so I’m putting this review as therapy. Huge loss for the program.

    Honestly one of the most friendliest Chinese restaurant establishments I’ve ordered from. Delivery driver was very nice and so was the woman over the phone. Food is equally as great. Will definitely make them my go to for now on !

    I ordered take out two times in two weeks. This place is below regular NYC Chinese takeout. Portions - usually two small orders leave us with plenty of leftovers. In this case we had zero leftovers, one noodle dish very empty and one rice dish almost all rice very little actual food. The noodles just tasted like a huge amount of garlic powder. I cook a lot and can tell the difference. If a place is making Chinese food all day they can at least use fresh garlic. It takes 20m of work to chop enough garlic for the day. We have lived in 3 other NYC neighborhoods and this is the worst Chinese food we have dealt with. Right down the block but we will seek out better

    From the outside the place looked a bit sus, but we went ahead and ordered takeout. We weren't disappointed and came back the next night. I wouldn't say the food is exceptional, but it is fresh, well made, tasty and reasonable - which is why you takeout Chinese food in the first place, right? The lady at the counter was friendly and the menu is quite exhaustive. I preferred the General Tsao chicken over the Kung Pao. Don't judge this book by its cover.......

    The people that work there are SO incredibly friendly! The food was hit and miss. The string beans with garlic sauce were the best dish we had. The general Taos was also pretty good. I won’t be ordering the cheese wontons or egg roll again. Also the sweet and sour wasn’t very good.

    One of the best kept secrets, 'blink-and-you'll-miss-it' restaurants in Brooklyn! The pork spare ribs are Magnificent and I always enjoy the egg rolls. No dining in, just grab & go.

    Best NYC Chinese takeout in the area. I usually call ahead and pick up. The woman typically working is always so sweet and kind. The food is flavorful and hits the Chinese takeout craving.

    MAKE SURE TO ASK TO SEE THE RECEIPT WHEN PICKING UP YOUR FOOD FOR DELIVERY. Ordering over the phone was quick and fast. Lady told me the total was $12.75. The delivery guy decided to lie and tell me the total was $15. I responded, “why are you lying?” He says, “no 15 dollar” and proceeds to crumble the receipt. I took the receipt and saw that it said 12.75. I showed him the receipt and said “look at you trying to steal my money.” Smh.

    Just recently started working in this neighborhood and decided to give this place a try as my go-to place for Chinese food. Placed the order ahead and upon arrival I found out that they got my order mixed up a little. However, the lady out front fixed it in the jiffy. She was polite and very helpful. Pork lo mein is delicious and full of flavor!!! This is now definitely a go-to place for lunch

    The woman here is super nice and helpful. The food is always good, and they even have options for vegans. They are my go to place, even though there are three places closer. Highly recommended.

    This is my local Chinese restaurant and every time I go the service is exceptional. Everyone there is so nice and the food is delicious. Definitely recommend

  • 5/5 Carlos E. 1 year ago on Google
    Great classic NY Chinese takeout. The lo mein is delicious and flavorful, unlike the bland stuff most other places offer. Veggies are fresh, general tsos is hot and crispy.

  • 5/5 Laura M. 2 years ago on Google
    Love this place! Lo mein, curry beef, fried chicken & egg roll were all delicious. Delivery was super fast.

  • 4/5 Victoria M. 2 years ago on Google
    Great classic NYC Chinese food. Chicken wings were extra crispy upon request, great spare rib tips and the mei fun and pork fried rice were light and not greasy. Veggies and broccoli were still crisp and not over cooked.

    I had their Lunch Special Boneless Spareribs tips with pork fried rice. I loved it! I’ll definitely go back to try other lunch specials. The fried rice was delicious but not greasy. The boneless spareribs tips were perfection, not too greasy but very flavorful. I called my order in and picked it up in 10 minutes. This is also one of the only A rated Chinese restaurants in this area so I’m beyond impressed by the food and quality.
