Impressive — plentiful, fresh, decent ingredients, very well-packed for delivery — a good solid choice if you live nearby. The tofu and vegetable soup is surprisingly good — not just a clear broth with random vegetables. Although, I would bet that that's a chicken broth, i.e. not vegetarian. I actually preferred it this way and am glad for it. Anyway this is a 3.5-star review partly on this point. A vegetable soup should be edible by vegetarians, so assuming I'm right, they should label this soup accordingly on the menu. Or if they call me out and I'm wrong, and that was somehow really a vegetable broth, I'll amend this review up to 4 stars — but I doubt it. For a main dish I had the hunan spicy beef. Again, a solid and decent dish in a generous portion. I didn't like the hot spice, which was too strong and not nuanced. But that's on me — it was clearly said it was with a hot sauce. I just didn't think this dish held together quite as well. Ma had a shrimp with lobster sauce. She said it was terrific, although I see she left over 80% of the lobster sauce — and she loves lobster. So, I'm guessing that wasn't quite optimal either. Anyway you can likely be pleased if you get...
Read moreI must say I’m rather shocked in my experience with the people who work here. From the guy who delivers and the lady who answers the phone, just beyond rude. I’ve been a customer for many years and I innocently missed calculated the tip and the guy sends me a text message saying how disgusted he was and for me to find another place to order from. I call to speak with a supervisor to explain the situation and the young lady who answers the phone, stated he’s not in and hangs up. I call again and she said well to call him and I said great what his number and she implies that she’s just a worker and doesn’t have that and hangs up again. I will share my experience with all my colleagues at the hospital and make sure they miss out on business for sure. I will not recommend this place at all. I will never give such tip to anyone! And that guy has delivered to me before and should’ve know it was an error. A simple phone to clarify the situation would’ve resolved a whole lot. I would’ve went back downstairs and added two dollars for the...
Read moreI've tried pretty much all Chinese takeout places around East Harlem. I ordered 3 items. Their Pint size portion is smaller than some of the others in the area. Moo Goo Gai Pan tasted kinda funky, I don't know if it was the sauce they used or one particular ingredient, it wasn't cooked in the white sauce I've always had. I assume they mostly cater to the Mount Sinai crowd. Ps. in response to the owner's response since google doesn't allow you to respond. First of all, speak English people can actually understand, but I gather that you want me to go somewhere else, trust and believe, I'll never patronize your establishment ever again and I'll make sure that everyone I know doesn't either. Food tasting funky is not a result of your "character" . Here's your one star...
