As a long time resident of the neighborhood, I decided to give this place a go and ordered delivery. Let me preface this by saying that Chinese food is my favorite cuisine, and I have never not liked a single Chinese restaurant in NYC in my 30+ years of living here - many are mediocre, but all passable.
That is, until this establishment. Every item I ordered either had almost no flavor or had a weird aftertaste. I was honestly baffled - I've had better Chinese food in strip malls in the middle of nowhere.
The wonton soup's broth tasted almost like straight up water, almost zero flavor. The wontons themselves were cooked well, but the shells had a weird aftertaste and the fillings were flavorless.
The chicken spring rolls were extremely oily and again, basically no flavor aside from the tiny cup of mediocre duck sauce they give you for two rolls.
The Shanghai pork soup dumplings would have been passable if the shells didn't have that weird aftertaste. The broth was lackluster but compared to the wonton soup broth felt like a flavor bomb. Unfortunately, the weird tasting dumpling wrappers ruined it for the broth and filling.
Portion size wise, they give a good raw volume of food for the price, but since it tasted bad it's not worth the price in my opinion.
If your in the neighborhood and want good Chinese food but don't want to deal with going all the way to Flushing, skip this place and take the 5 extra minutes to drive...
