This place is close to my house, I think that is the only reason I go there. The food is......ok! Once you go inside of the restaurant, you'll have to be very careful of the floor! The floor is greasy, very slippery, so be careful! There are around 5 and a half dinning tables in this restaurant for eating in, the problem is , there are no wait staffs available to serve you. If you decide to eat in, whoever is behind the cash register will serve you. Make sure to ask them to wash their hands each time they touch your plates. The last time I visited, I saw the back chef picking up a piece of meat from the floor right after he dropped it and put it with the other meat. I had no choice but to walk out. This restaurant is like the outside eateries in Hong Kong, where they can't afford to rent and must open outside. Even the cashier, who acts like a manly girl, can be very rude! Remember, she'll be the one serving you. I hear the customer calling her, "hey beautifu", in order to get a better service. This is a takeout joint only. If you want better food, take a walk further down to like 66th st and turn left to 8th ave. Where you'll find really authentic Chinese food. But if you're looking for cheap, fast, and ok Chinese food, this...
Read moreI get take out from this place regularly.
Normally for dinner, I order the beef and broccoli entree with a small rice on the side. This is not your typical fast food beef and broccoli with greasy pre-made industrial sauce. You can taste the ingredients in the sauce. It is very good most of the time. If you expect American-style chinese beef and broccoli go to the Great Wall.
For lunch, I get roast pig over rice. Pretty good most of the time. The problem is a lack of volume. If you get it fresh out of the oven, the roast pig is amazing. If you want more consistency, I suggest you go to 8th ave and stand/fight with the mob for fresh BBQ. If you want a calm experience this is the place for you.
This place is better than your average Chinese fast food place and capable of providing a full traditional Chinese meal. I been here with my family in the past. There is enough room for three big round tables similar to the size you would see in the big restaurants. The consistency is not 100%. But it is good enough for me to come back over the years. In a nutshell, you get 8th ave level Chinese food without the...
Read moreTruly a gem that I’m so glad I found, I guess I have Ubereats to thank for that. I grew up in Sunset Park but usually only frequent Chinatown in person for trips to their seafood markets so I’m not surprised that I never stumbled across this spot but next time I’m in the area I’m definitely stopping by. Their BBQ meats are just so damn good. So so so so so so so good. I’ve had them all except for the chicken. I was on a Roast Pork ordering spree and I just decided one day to try the Roast Pig. I was hesitant to do so before because they are a bit far from where I live now and soggy pork skin isn’t my favorite. But when I tell you, that does not matter honey? I ain’t lying. Even if it does get soggy, it’s still so damn delicious. And the FLAVOR? The FLAVORRRRRRR! I hate bland pork, my culture hates bland pork lol.. the Roast Pig from New Yee Li is far from bland. It’s seasoned perfectly and cooked perfectly. Duck is also fire but the star of the show is the Roast Pig so make sure you try it and...
