About Charley Mom

Charley Mom is a Chinese restaurant situated at 1580 York Ave in New York, NY. Based on recent online reviews, customer experiences appear to be mixed.

One recent customer expressed extreme disappointment with their experience. They ordered a Peking duck for a holiday meal and found it to be overcooked and smaller than expected for the price. Upon returning to the restaurant, they reported being treated rudely by the owners, who allegedly suggested they order from a different establishment if they found the portion size unsatisfactory. This customer strongly advised others to avoid the restaurant due to the negative interaction.

In contrast, another reviewer shared nostalgic memories of Charley Mom from the 1990s, recalling it as "The Best." They mentioned enjoying dishes such as Charlie Mom Shrimp or Shrimp Imperial, stuffed crab claws, and plum wine, and remembered the staff as friendly, creating unforgettable experiences. However, this reviewer concluded that those positive days seem to be over.

Extremely disappointed in this establishment! I ordered a Peking duck for my family because it is Christmas. I did not expect to be treated with such rudeness from the owners. I had ordered a whole duck which cost 60 dollars. So when I arrived back at home and saw how over cooked and tiny this duck was, immediately went back to the store. When I arrived they were very nasty to me. They told me that I should order from a different place since theirs is too small and that I shouldn’t complain!… so I’m true New York fashion, I put them in their place and demanded my refund! I do not tolerate disrespect! So don’t waste your time with this restaurant

Price is right. Food is fair. It’s a neighborhood staple. Don’t go the extra mile to order over the phone, same exact price as seamless. Delivered pretty fast. Portions are quite large. I ordered way too much. I think my fave was the bok Choi & mushrooms. I’m gonna try the lunch menu for sure.

Few places in Yorkville have lasted as long as Charley Mom. Primarily for takeouts (very limited seating and no table service), they serve the familiar favorites. The fried dishes do lose their crispness (in transit) so I would not order those. The sautéed dishes are ok. Service is fast.
