Joy Luck Club — Restaurant in Town of Brookhaven

First of all, FOOD… it’s absolutely delicious:D. I don’t ever write reviews because it’s a waste of time but I’ve read the reviews before going here (ofc like everyone else) and the reviews don’t seem very good for some reasons. BUT the food here is made in a way that bring out the flavor. I ordered the beef and broccoli and I LOVE IT. The beef is made in a way that it’s chewy at first and then after chewing it, the flavors of just asian cuisine comes out 🤤. I would say it’s the best Chinese food place in this area. Service… the people here are very amazing and friendly. The line was very long but they manage to take care of every customer in a timely fashion. Just looking at how much people there is makes me stressed, I don’t know how they do it, ngl. The Atmosphere, I gave it a 4/5 because people would think I’m a bot if I don’t put that. This place looks like it leads back to almost 30 years. The artworks, the clock by the corner mirror(a kid there showed me, it glows and it actually works) , the phone (I tried the phone and it actually works), and even the heater at the side looks so long agooo. I also asked too and the kid told me it leads back to almost 20-30 years. Crazy isn’t it??? Also, food gets soggy because you don’t pick up your order at a timely fashion and eat it at a timely fashion, I don’t know what the hell people here are...

I ate here 3 times altogether. I don't eat chinese food often but I decided to order some from this spot. I ordered a simple dish chicken and brocolli. The next day I was sick as a dog with the worse upset stomach. And this is the second time this happened the first time I thought I had just picked up a stomach virus. But for the exact same symptoms twice after eating there food. Im now questioning the quality of there food.

To each its own but I will NEVER EVER eat...

we were looking for a new local take out, thought we would give Joy Luck a try, honestly the food was terrible, the boneless ribs were gristle could not eat without spitting pieces out, egg rolls were soggy, noodles were stale , king ok shrimp had zero flavor. The only thing I could agree with from other reviews is that the lady is friendly guess we have to still keep looking...
