Got both General Tsos Chicken and pork fried rice as well as Sesame Chicken and shrimp fried rice. Both chicken dishes were crispy fried, not soggy like other places around the US states that drench their Chicken bites. The two fried rices were also very tasty and full of robust flavor. This place is certainly worth a quick drive or Uber if youre near LaGuardia Airport.
Waited 2+ hours(not the first time this happened) to have my food delivered even though I live about 5 blocks down the road from the restaurant. I called numerous times yet they kept saying fifteen minute he on his way. The wait made me feel like if I ordered from Australia it would be delivered faster.
Bad service very rude. Got my order completely wrong. I orderderd garlic baby shrimp with white rice, chicken nuggets and french fries. They gave me vegetables in garlic sauce NO SHRIMP, GAVE ME AN ORDER OF FRIED SHRIMP WITH WHITE RICE WHICH I DIDNT ORDER, BUT THE ONLY THING RIGHT WAS CHICKEN NUGGETS AND FRENCH FRIES. SO OF COURSE I DIDNT GET TO ENJOY MY FOOD. I ALSO HAD TO PAY FOR TGE FRIEND SHRIMO AND FRIES WHICH I DIDNT ORDER OR WANT. THERES A VWRY LONG WAIT THERE. I ALSO HAD TO REMIND THEM OF MY FREE SODA.
Amazing how many people on here do not know what HIGH TEA is!!! It is NOT a fancy tea, HIGH TEA is a sarcastic expression meaning a workmans tea of utter basics like dull soup and old bread, and anyplace that you see advertising high tea is an out and out tourist trap! A grand afternoon tea, or a hotel style tea is the correct name for a multi course indulgence with tea, usually composed of at least three courses; scones or crumpets with clotted cream, butter and jams, small sandwiches of the salmon, cucumber and ham varieties, and then miniature pastries or petit fours. And if the place is really putting on the Ritz it may include a glass of champagne and end with chocolates. This is NOT HIGH TEA, people. It is not like high mass, big church or high class --quite the opposite! High tea is something you definitely want to avoid unless you are desperate and starving.
This is honestly the best place to get Chinese Food. 18 years I have lived across the street and have been ordering only from this place and I never had a problem which is why I find the negative reviews really hard to believe. I trust no one else with my Chinese food.A+

2022-06-15I am still eating this rice, house rice with chicken, shrimp and pork. There isnt any to be found. One quart fed four, even though they said it serves two. Maybe three so I have an extra yellow ride with nothing in it at 941pm and no dogs around to feed it to. This is NY, really. Not so great wall food

2021-12-27I ordered at 7:25pm and they did not deliver until 8:55. After an hour and 10 minutes we called to inquire when we should be expecting our food the lady told us 5 minutes. 15 minutes pass we call again and they tell us 5 more minutes, it’s unnecessary to lie to people I’d respect it more if they were honest and told me they were running behind. I requested to cancel the order the lady refused and hung up the phone. The food finally got here and they didn’t even get that right, i ordered shrimp and broccoli and they gave me shrimp with mixed vegetables.

2017-02-14Sometimes its not just the food but the people who make you like a place. In my case, the food is good but more so the folks who run the place are very nice and welcoming. Theyre actually out of the way for me and I pass by another Chinese restaurant closer to me because the people there just dont cut it.Good portions, good prices. Not much else to say. Nice folks.

2021-12-29The food was decent but the atmosphere was really down. Maybe due to COVID-19. Will try again. It was recommended by a friend.
