China Royal — Restaurant in New York

A lot of hate and xenophobic stereotyping in past reviews. Says more about immature, ignorant dregs of this neighborhood.

Bottom line: Place is competent. It's not the apogee of Chinese cuisine, nor is it the basement of fast-food dining.

In my experience, food is adequate, satisfying tasty enough after a long day. Rice can be mushy/mooshy, brown sauves are uninspired but that is general of fast Chinese takeout for the past couple of decades.

Racist assertions are of the type familiar to thoughtful NYC ers who suffered acquaintances of the dolt, low education, proud-ignoramus variety generally. Things a moronic sod in this group believes or will say for shiz-and-giggles are for example:

shish kebab street carts use cat meat Hotdogs are filled with rat meat All street carts use some form of cadaver meat---everyone, because their brown friend's neighbor told their old childhood friend's exes aunt that : "Yes!"

Yes what? Ummm, they're a different shade of brown so they "don't know."

Vegetables are crunchy, tasty. Never had any extra curricular 'protein' in my meals, in a decade-long past.

They are unsmiling, austere true. Not mean, just all business. But, I'm a smiler and disarm them when i have the inclination/time. Then they smile. Good, hardworking people.

O, and if you expect deliciously refined Chinese cuisine visit Chinatown, Las Vegas, Taiwan, or the communist mainland. Or Canada! The West doesn't do 3 star Michelin Chinese cuisine in any abundance, vis-a-vis French Haute Cuisine. So keep it in perspective, scale, man. The extra *s are...

STOP!

It’s really not that bad, this place does not underpromise as some other reviews stated. The food was delicious and my wings were fried crispy and juicy to perfection. The lady in the front was really friendly and even with her limited English i felt her warmth from her voice and service.

The beef and broccoli was nice. Beef was tender and fresh and they even gave brown rice! Something i didn’t expect from a Chinese take out place. The noodles were also really fresh and the seafood was delicious.

Prices were more than fair and I got my order in less than 10 minutes. I’m definitely making this my go to take out spot...

Used to order from here all the time until today !! This will be the last time . My husband called to order us dinner, the guy on the phone kept rushing him so he could hang up. We asked for beef and broccoli, an order of a LARGE wonton soup and EXTRA DUCK SAUCE. When the order came there was NO wonton soup inside , and 1 single duck sauce. My husband kindly called back to reorder his soup and EXTRA DUCK SAUCE and reminded the guy he didn’t take the order down correctly. When the order arrived AGAIN it was a SMALL wonton soup with NO duck sauce in the bag . We had to call one last time to let them know we will NEVER ORDER...
