Ordered online for pick up. Got to the restaurant and told order never put in, in spite of me having an order number and having already paid. This is unacceptable. Beware- do not order for take out if you are on a schedule.

Even if you're not into Chinese food, you've got to admire the style that comes with it. My top-tier chums and I came here for lunch yesterday after The Pasta Shop had a 90-minute wait (which annoyed them/pretty much quashed any interest they had in trying to go back, and made me want to go even more - so it goes), and were rewarded with approximately a 30-second wait for a table here. Boy is there a lot to look at; I'm not going to risk using incorrect terminology in describing this building, but it's a lot. I'm assuming it's a fairly accurate interpretation of an "authentic" Chinese structure, but that's as far as I'm going. Very unique, very cool. And as someone who has spent a bit of time at a time vortex Chinese place in Rockland County of late, apparently aquariums are a big part of the decor.If you're looking for information on Hunan's authentic Chinese dishes, you've come to the wrong place - we went so basic, we might as well have ordered this with a side of Uggs and a Pumpkin Spice Latte. I ordered my tried and true Sweet & Sour Chicken, one top-tier chum ordered the Sesame Chicken, and the other top-tier chum ordered General Tso's Chicken. The edgiest item we procured were the steamed pork dumplings app to share.Everything here was very solid. These are obviously items that we'd typically get from a hole-in-the-wall takeout establishment, so it was a nice change of pace to eat the chicken off of actual plates (maybe most people do that too with their takeout orders, but I'm a barbarian through and through). The two keys for me when it comes to sweet & sour chicken are ensuring the chicken isn't overly deep fried where you're eating more fried skin than meat, and that the sauce is on the thicker side. Hunan checked off both boxes here, and since it was served with some vegetables, etc., there was some extra flavoring at play as well. The dumplings were very good as well. I've become more of a soup dumpling adherent in recent years, but I liked the seasoning in the pork and was pleased we got something other than generic chicken with our meal.The service overall was above average. I thought it slowed down noticeably towards the end, though we weren't in a rush or anything. But we'd clearly stopped eating and didn't receive a visit from anyone to pack up the leftovers for about 20 minutes - not egregious, and there were tons of staffers all over the place and it would have been very easy to hail someone down if the urgent need arose. Beyond that, everyone we interacted with was pleasant and efficient.One of my chums noted a party room in the back and was openly pondering the possibility of returning in the near future and hosting a birthday in there. I wasn't QUITE as blown away by this place as she was, but I'd definitely come back. But since I'm not a frisky teenager anymore, I sadly have to pick and choose my moments to chow down on Chinese food these days. The perils of Geriatric Oregon Trail Millennial-hood.

Taste was extremely good. We enjoyed everything! Came from 30 miles away and don’t have a problem doing it again to get a satisfying meal rather than a mediocre meal nearby.

First time here, we saw this restaurant in passing a few months ago and wanted to try it. There is plenty of parking on the premises. We walked in without reservations, we only had to wait about 15- 20 mins... They were moving pretty quickly.. They have a good amount of seating indoors and i think they have some seating outside. There is a small bar inside...All of the staff moved fast, as soon as we were seated several staff members asked if we were ready to order..even after we ordered....the appetizers came fairly quick, we ordered the steamed shrimp dumplings, they were good..had a good sauce...We ordered general tao shrimp and shrimp with hot pepper oil and they came with small bowl of rice..everything was good, very flavorful... The only thing i didnt like is i felt like we were being rushed throughout our meal...Staff would come to grab dishes as soon as we finished one thing. ..Even once the check came, as soon we were putting the card in the pocket, a staff member immediately asked if we were ready to pay. The staff was nice.. I appreciate fast service. I understand that they were very busy but rushing the customers kind of dampened our complete experience. And i didn't wanna order extra stuff...I would recommend just maybe a less busier day..

Best Chinese food outside of Chinatown. Peking duck is a must and the soup dumplings are terrific. Great ambience, fast and friendly service. Will come back again soon.
