This evening I ordered the Beef with Broccoli ($21) which was served to me at nearly room temperature. I sent it back and about two minutes later the waiter brought the same serving back again after it was reheated. It then cooled off in almost no time and was back to the temperature it was before. The proper way to handle the situation would have been to give me a new portion. The beef had almost no taste except for the taste of the juice it was served with. They charged me an extra dollar because I chose brown rice instead of white rice, bringing the total to $22 before tax. I had their chicken corn soup as my starter, it did not have enough flavor to it. The restaurant is between 88th and 89th Streets on Third Avenue. On a different day I tried their fish filet ($23) in brown sauce. The filet was sauteed and comes with mixed vegetables. I chose to have it with just broccoli (pictured). It was mild in taste, pleasing, and the size of the portion made it filling.

The food here was surprisingly good. The lunch special here is cheap and extensive! Great deal! They have a lot of dishes not normally seen on a Chinese menu. I loved the pork with dried Tofu. The Taiwanese popcorn chicken was yummy. The hot and sour soup was a bit runny but still good. Service here is fast and efficient.

The best Chinese food in New York City. It saddened me that my favorite waiter retired. He was a great asset to this restaurant since 1996.

If I could give zero stars I would! People beware, your food might come with kitchen supplies cooked into it. My dad was eating the egg roll that accompanies the lunch special when he began to choke. He pulled a big piece of Saran Wrap out of his throat, which had been cooked into the egg roll. We went back to the restaurant to bring it to their attention and they called us liars. It’s one thing to have consumed Saran Wrap but it was another to be completely dismissed by the restaurant.

Very tasty full of flavor one of Best Chinese food in Manhattan. I tried different dishes I almost liked them all. The food tasted really fresh. All the meat and chicken cooked well. Staff very friendly and nice I recommend coming to here. The beef fried rice is great. Outdoor area pretty decent even it was raining. Parking not hard.
