Good Friends Market

Quick delicious food. Short ride from Kartrite Indoor Water part. We enjoyed their wonton noodle soup, beef and broccoli, beef brisket, laksa and Korean BBQ Pork and Kimchi. You order on the counter like in a fast food restaurant, food was quickly made which was perfect for my hungry group. Served in plastic containers (to go style) and ample sitting was available. Good food and fast. (Sorry no food pics, it was eaten as soon as it landed the table.)

Pork ribs were raw inside. They gave me my take out order with half the items missing. When I went back to get the rest of my order they argued and carried on as if I were trying to steal their food. One young dark haired woman (no name, of course) was so incredibly rude and pedantic that I thought I was witnessing a temper tantrum by a spoiled child. She claimed to be the manager (but was not). Condescending and patronizing she acted out the whole bit that most of us have seen and heard from incompetent petty counter people. You probably know the routine: “Sir! Sir! Someone already picked up this order. Sir, I packed it myself. Sir, someone picked this up with the ticket.” all performed in that sing-song mocking spoiled brat voice. I had the ticket IN MY HAND the whole time and she flat out lied to my face. On top of the horrible customer rudeness and lack of service, the food was questionable. BBQ ribs were served in “soup” that was nothing more than salty brown water with half-cooked pieces of pork ribs and noodles. Inedible and dangerously raw. We got one dish with rice, also inedible since the rice was still crunchy. The shrimp dumplings were hard and dried out and were simply a small boiled shrimp surrounded by a greasy cold and dried out dumpling wrapper. The shrimp smelled awful. We wound up eating the chicken wings and spring rolls which were greasy and cold but at least edible. We then left resorts world Catskills and headed in to Monticello to find some food. I have been coming to this casino for several years, on and off. As of today I have determined that there is officially NO safe place to eat at resorts world Catskills. I won’t be back any time soon. I would encourage everyone to avoid this place. There was a time when the food at this restaurant was actually pretty good but not now. I will not be back to resorts world Catskills. They send me free room offers at least once a week. They can keep their free room. The are too many other casinos that want my business and show me respect as a paying playing customer.

I ordered the brisket noodle bowl. I got a bowl full of grizzle and non chewable back strap. When I brought the waste from my bowl up to the counter the waitress was not surprised. She said she’d get me more meat. When she brought it to me it was more of the same grizzle. I said to her that’s no different. Her words to me were - “You should have seen what she was gonna send you, this was the better of it!” My mom got the duck bowl. While tasty it was full of bones. Absolutely do not recommend this place. Awful experience. These places should stick to buffets.

The thin looking Chinese so called manager is a complete disgrace and a failure. Unprofessional and actually a liar. SHAME ON YOU. I'm extremely disappointed with my recent experience at Good Friends Restaurant. Unfortunately, it was a complete disaster from start to finish. - The service was abysmal, our server seemed completely uninterested in our table and took ages to take our orders. - The food was subpar, I ordered the signature dish and it was overcooked, flavorless and lukewarm. - The ambiance was lacking, the music was too loud and the decor was dated. - To top it all off, the manager seemed completely unapologetic and uninterested in our complaints. Needless to say, I won't be returning anytime soon. It's a shame because I had high hopes for this place. Maybe they'll turn it around, but until then, I'd advise others to steer clear. UPDATE: I've tried to give them the benefit of the doubt, but after multiple poor experiences, I'm convinced that this place just isn't worth it. Disappointing!"

Beef and broccoli, $15, was a bowl full of white rice with FOUR small slices of beef. So not worth it.
