Spent over $100 on food that had no flavor. We threw all the food out! The fried rice was actually disgusting. It used to be really good so I didn’t care that it was over priced but I will not order from them again. I’m sure I’ll find a new place on New Dorp Lane. Don’t waste your money. More

This food absolutely destroyed my stomach. It smelled off, but I credited the vinegar in the salad dressing. I was in pain for hours. Among the worst and definitely the most expensive bento boxes I have ever purchased. The service was poor and the cashier unfriendly. Will not go back. More

One of the few Chinese food places I really like. The place is clean, comfortable, good food, decent prices, and friendly service. I tend to get their noodle soup and the portions are big. The decor is interesting cause it feels more like something you would see in a club but it’s nice.

(I ordered from the one on Richmond Ave in the shopping Plaza with Stop and Shop and Buffalo Wild Wings). Food tastes great! Dumplings are awesome and not too doughy. Egg rolls are crispy and fresh. Fast delivery and very nice people. Ordering tonight!!

  • Jackie Bella

The food here is absolutely delicious!!! Pricey, but worth it- you get what you pay for. I had been ordering from another restaurant for 25+ years, new owners = too many changes, add a new chef and it’s a recipe for disaster! Thank goodness

  • Carmen Velazquez

Twice my food has been tasteless and undercooked. I threw the first order away but called and had them redo the second order. As I was leaving the restaurant, the woman behind the counter told me that I complain too much and if I don't like

I rarely write reviews, but this definitely needed one. Have been a loyal customer for years. customer service is absolutely atrocious. Called and asked for manager, they refused to allow me to talk to the manager, and was ridiculously told

  • Danielle D'Onofrio

Awful customer service. I called because I was unable to check out on the website with the promo code they offer and they said it was expired. Ummm it’s on the website how can it be expired. They did nothing to help when the right thing to

I been ordering from this place for many years with no issues (over ten Yrs) My last two times I ordered sesame chicken the chicken was horrible! Honestly didn’t even taste like chicken. Chicken was dry rubbery and grainy truly disgusting.

  • Charles DeAngelis

They maybe the best Chinese food on the island. It's a little pricey but you're getting TOP quality. The other day I tried the salad and I was amazed. The produce was fresh and the shrimps were delicious and cooked perfectly. The dressing

  • Vitali Fishman

I usually don’t leave negative reviews. The reason I’m giving 1 star review cause I ordered food totaling $112 and told them I have a coupon that I found it on Value pack app they advertise on, the coupon is digital, they said I need a

  • Gyum Youn

I’ve been thinking about this noodle soup for weeks! Came back again to dine in for the first time. I ordered roasted pork and shrimp wonton noodle soup. (egg noodle, my fav) The price was around 17-. It is quite pricy but it’s a big

  • fotopoulos WS blanchette

I'm reading the bad reviews. I'm surprised. This place is wonderful, the food is awesome. But the bad reviews about the behavior of certain staff sounds believable. It is common behavior among the Asian restaurants that I've been 2

Tried the Chicken Pad Thai for takeout and it was very good. Don't care for the ambience so would probably not dine in here, they need a bit more decor and give it a true Chinese resto feel. More

  • ABE Installations

This place is disgusting... The guys are super unprofessional, this is the third time we are getting food from here that we cannot eat "fried pork rice" and in the end we are still being

  • Pete Vongnak

Never a disappointment… Some people say pricey but I always say “ you get what you pay for “. Quality of food is so much higher than the other Chinese restaurants on the island More

  • Rory Altman

Over priced and food was very salty. I got delivery and ask for utensils and as usual I got none. I'm DONE with this place . This is what being cheap gets. You LOSE BUSINESS

  • Manni Kwong

Both shrimp wonton and chicken dumpling are flavorful. Sichuan sauce is tasty and not too spicy. Nice and clean dinning area. More

  • rob perez

These food is so good . Back in the 90's this place was tiny and still great. This day in 2019 the food is better damn tasty.

Very rude and unhelpful, food is mid but certainly not good enough to excuse their demeanor and behavior More
