05/14/2024 - After a long absence in Paris, France, we are very happy to see that this restaurant is still serving authentic, fresh Chinese cuisine to those who enjoy it. Wonton soup, Hot & Sour soup, crab meat roll, vegetable spring roll, roast duck over rice, soy sauce chicken over rice, shrimp chow mein - All dishes were delicious and portions were pretty good. Service is super friendly and attentive, some of the best staff in Midtown. Eat real food for a very reasonable price. Everything made from scratch and fresh. So if you eat here, you must be a happy person - for they say - Happy people focus on what they have. Unhappy people focus on what is missing.

Tasty American-style Chinese and authentic Cantonese foods prepared by the nicest older woman working the counter! Affordable options for Midtown eats.

I've had the food here off their lunch menu and wasn't impressed, but the soups are really good. The roast pork noodle soup or the roast duck noodle soup you can't go wrong with. Sometimes, the duck in the soup can be a tiny bit tough but still really good and worth getting. And don't forget to get the hot chili oil, that puts it over the topParking: Don't bother driving here. Parking is super tough

Stopped by this random Chinese takeout place near my work. Stepping in, it's one long corridor of tables and chairs and to the right is the ordering/kitchen. The combo dishes range around $12 which is decently priced for the neighborhood. I got the beef chow fun for $13 and honestly, it was pretty decent and wasn't stuck together. I won't say it's the best one I had but for a Chinese take out, it has good flavoring but I wish the beef was more sliced thin and more bean sprouts added. Based on today's visit, I would give it a high 3 stars and will visit again. UPDATE: I went back today Feb 20th and ordered chicken with broccoli combo with white rice. It came with an egg roll which was somewhat hard in some areas meaning they did not fry it completely. Also the chicken was in chunks and it goes back to what I said above earlier, they need to do a better job slicing their proteins as things should not come chunky. Based off two visits now, I will give this place 2 stars.

Would you sacrifice your dignity for superior Chinese food?Be prepared to get yelled at, pushed around, and catch your flying credit card with great aim. Because they will tell you that you are too slow at ordering and too clumsy at swiping your card.Also I hope you have good night vision. Because they literally don’t turn on the light in the back dinning area.With that said, I don’t look at myself in the mirror when I am full anyways… dignity.. well, see you another day…Kid-friendliness: Not kid friendly. Too much profanity flying around

I used to go here a lot to get their noodle soup, until i found a long hair in my soup. I was so grossed out, never went back.

This (expletive) goes crazy for the price. Do not order the bourbon chicken though but everything else is gas

This is some of the best Chinese food I've had north of Chinatown. If you're looking for white table cloths, and a place to impress your date, this is not the place for you. It has all the ambience of a diner. however, if it's authentic Cantonese food, you're looking for, go no further. The roast duck noodle soup was perfect. They also have salt and pepper shrimp on the menu. Which I'm going to try next time I'm there. They do a lot of takeout business which might be the best option, especially in the winter, since the heat was rather low when I was there. in summary, great food, low-end atmosphere
