The crabs sticks are made out of dough. Please do not purchase. It’s flour sticks? I was so disappointed!

Too expensive and small portions for salty fried rice

The girl on the phone was insanely rude. I asked her a pack of dumplings and she said hurry up. I cannot hear you. It was really rude to the fact where she started thinking that I was a prank call and she said she found my address and that she found my everything and that she was going to call the police in my area when all I wanted was a piece of dumplings, sad insanely rude, and has a bad ambience. I could already tell the mood was really really shady. Do not go here again. I bet they have rats inside of their food.

This is a restaurant hidden inside a YMCA. Typically I enjoy going to hole in the wall eateries or places that's hidden from the main street. The main thing that sticks out is that the menu prices are significantly more expensive from other comparable Chinese take outs. Its on par with sit down restaurants level prices. The quality of food is about same as others in the area, maybe cleaner tasting, but spending about $15 for Chinese takeout is not something I would do on a regular basis.

They have good food but they are very expensive. It may be because of their location. They are on the lobby level of the Newark YMCA building.

Disrespectful women on the phone, last time doing takeout from here, they need to realize that they live in our neighborhood and survive off of African American money. Don’t be disrespectful

Was surprised to find that this place was in a YMCA and it looked like any other Chinese food spot, more seating then most in NY. And on a Sunday afternoon it was empty which made me wonder if the food was any good. Let me tell you it's pretty damn good. Only thing I'll say is Quality over quantity. The portions are on smaller size but the rice tasted fresh and the sauce was on point. I had the pork fried rice with chicken wing in garlic sauce, my husband had french fries with wings in general tso sauce and my son house special lo mein. Everything tasted really good. Definitely ganna have to come back.Kid-friendliness: Came with my toddler and since restaurant was big with plenty of seating it was easy to park our stroller near the table and what toddler doesn't like noodles.

Good food. The price is high, a little bit over-expected.

I go for lunch weekly and this place is always my first choice whenever I don’t bring lunch to the office. Food is fresh and tasty. Quite authentic Chinese food.

The worst sweet and sour chicken I've ever had. There was chicken and rice in one bowl, and some gooey red-dyed sauce in another container, which was neither sweet nor sour. No peppers, no onion, no garlic, nothing.

The food was fantastic and the people were very friendly. 12 hungry boys and men showed up 40 minutes before closing and they graciously accommodated us.

Nestled inside tree YMCA, this small restaurant is ready to overlook. I got the spring roll and hot & sour soup and both were delicious - and served right off the burner!I'll stop by again the next time I'm in this area
