This is the best Chinese in Harlem. Maybe I’m biased. lol. They are open everyday except Sunday. They are quick and they are always nice. I think the cashier remembers me now.

Crispy Bamboo Village has always been one of my favorite Chinese restaurants in the area. It is a great option when you need your lunch or dinner to take out. Delivery is also an option using any of the apps available but being so close to my home, I prefer to pick up the food. The service is fast if you consider the large number of orders that they receive by phone, which you can listen to ringing while waiting for your dishes. The quality of the dishes and their prices are not comparable with any fast food if customers take into account the time of preparation, the balance of the ingredients offered (including vegetables and meats), and the flavors that, different from a burger or hot dog , results difficult to replicate at home. Remember, the restaurant is only to take out.Crispy Bamboo Village has always been one of my favorite Chinese restaurants in the area. It's a great option when you need to bring your lunch or dinner. Home delivery is also an option using any of the available apps, but being so close to my house, I prefer to pick up the food. The service is fast considering the large number of orders they take over the phone, which you can hear ringing while you wait for your dishes.

Please remember this is a takeaway only restaurant.

Keeping this very simple. This is an old school, simple Chinese takeout place. Not a restaurant. Not an IG foodie moment. Not an "experience ". Read it again - old school take out. Periodt. Food: It's good, tasty and consistent. Never greasy which is a huge plus. Not fancy or fusion. The normal suspects at a place like this - sesame chicken, wings, boneless ribs (what is that btw?), fried rice, wonton soup, beef & broccoli. You get the gist - it's American Chinese food. If you want anything remotely new or "authentic", go to Flushing or maybe a hole in the wall spot in Chinatown. This is straight comfort food. Service: I've heard people complain that they are rude or cold at best; racist at worst. Not true. At all. They are polite and quick. They are Chinese and culturally are transactional with persons outside of their community. Plus, they are running a takeout business. Get the order, turn it around quick, toodles. Nobody has time for the warm and fuzzies. Stop the nonsense. They have been in the neighborhood a long time and survived CoVid. Let's take the small wins and move on. Ambiance: There isn't any. It's a takeout place. So expect the bullet proof glass and transaction doors. I get the need to be safe. Most importantly, the kitchen is in plain view and is always - ALWAYS - very, very clean. That is all the ambiance you need from a takeout spot. As always, please continue to support our local, small businesses in the community and stop using Uber Eats, etc. when possible. The margins are brutal on the business.

The price is affordable and friendly to the people, the food portion is large, and it comes with green vegetables and broccoli?. The taste is average and relatively bland.
