The food is not consistent. They vegetable fried rice used to be excellent unfortunately my last 3 times both rice's tasted burnt. Unfortunately, I'm a 25 minutes' drive from there so it doesn't pay to go back and complaint and request a refund or exchange the food. The cook apparently is change often because the pork fried rice and other foods are cook differently. Every time I tried the same order it's cook differently and not as good as before. I no longer recommend this restaurant. read more

Look at this long black hair that was inside my steamed vegetable dumpling and then imagine how disgusting it would be pulling it out of your mouth and take note of how the hair is embedded in the dough. Update I called the " restaurant " and I was told not our probrem we don't make here, we will give you free dumprings and TWO free egg rolls! WOW now I'm actually happy I had that long disgusting hair in my mouth! I hope I find a toenail in the free ones!!! read more

I've been eaten here for a long time and I do enjoy it they usually deliver very quickly and everything is very hot.

Poor service. They got the order wrong and then insisted it was correct. Unacceptable service. Curry pork and chicken with mixed vegetables are not the same read more

egg rolls are always hot during prime hours; They have a special sweet duck sauce and staff really work hard. my neighbor goes several day a week for broth soup,etc and the food is ready for her within a minute; read more

Big Apple - Steamed bun - Chinese Near Me - Rockaway Park, New York

My go to Chinese in Rockaway Beach. Good prices. Lots of quality food and they deliver. read more

Delivery was on time. Food was hot and good. We had spring rolls, orange beef, general chow's chicken, yang chow fried rice, won ton soup sweet and sour soup. All were good. They are mainly takeout. read more

They ain't what they were when they first opened. Scrawny portions , under seasoned, runny sauces and the most pathetic part is they even screwed up the white rice! How does a Chinese restaurant screw up white rice? They still are chintzy with the "$30" free soda scam. Even my order of $53 dollars didn't qualify for a free soda under their $30 free soda scam because I had 2 combination dinners. At least I didn't have to face the dragon lady this time. read more

Ordered lunch special but they didn't include the rice with the meal. not the first time thinking that this occurred they are doing this intentionally to save money.... Will NOT be going back!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Tried for the 1st time last night ! Wow ! What a great find for take out . Ordered chicken kew ( delicious ) , beef & broccoli & sesame chicken. Every one in the family agreed it was the best we have had in a long time. Looking forward to trying some other dishes soon. Hard to read the menu & order at the same time while on phone , so take a good look, write it down & then call to order. Not an eat in place tho . read more

I placed an order to go. Large wonton soup, 2 small orders of chicken chow mein, one eggroll, small spareribs, small shrimp in lobster sauce and small house special lo mein. This came out to $47.25. (No free drinks or anything else- like in most takeout places) I asked for the spicy mustard and they charged 25 cents. Ok. Whatever. I've eaten/ordered in places like this and usually the food is so good that nothing else matters. Well, this is not true for this place. I found their food to be ok. It had very little flavor. The shrimp in lobster sauce had no ground pork in the sauce and it was very Congealed, with a Weird consistency. Very little flavor. The spareribs were chewy and tasteless. The other items were not much better. I didn't even take pictures of anything, because it was not worth recording. Pretty sad. I would not recommend this spot. read more

Always delicious and very polite on the phone. Love their Singapore Spring Rolls, Pork Fried Rice. BBQ Bone in Ribs, Shrimp in Lobster Sauce, Shrimp Lo Mein.... My list can go on and on.... Fast delivery also. read more

I ordered online before 3pm and picked up the order at 330pm, the owner called me and said I must pick up by 3pm to get the special. SmH Unreal East Meets West on 129th Street is much better and open on Tuesdays!!!! read more

I ordered won ton soup she face me with no utensils no soy sauce no duck no mustard no napkin no spoon. But when I asked for hot oil in my soup. So, the arrogant aggressive women said in Chinese to there people charge 25 cents. I asked for the recipe she hesitated pretend she don't speak English but she knew to ask for 25 cents. I had ordered a year ago on news years eve got a poo poo platter the shrink toast was nothing but old grease no shrimps inside the beef was dried old from days of old. So I gave her hot oil back so I told her you got nerve to charge for hot oil lime a mcdonalds mcnugget bbq sauce size I gave the Beech back her her got oil never will never order any chines stores in the rock aways north Queens is the best reson able excellent chose authentic Chinese resteraunts plus much cleaner out here in Rockaway it seems the board of health turns a bling eye in there kitchens. Bottom line don't waste your money the for old three day left foods reheated ! read more

Visited them recently and I Ordered egg foo young. It was delish. Will definitely go back to try other dishes.

Whole in the wall not much to look at but good food and service. Same price as everyone else. Very friendly people that work there

Very rude delivery person. I sent him right back with the food. I didn't pre-pay, another restaurant will get my business and as much as I can turn away from this mediocre at best dump. read more

After my neighborhood favorite, New Kim Restaurant closed, I tried this place. I ordered my favorite, chicken and broccoli in garlic sauce. It was good. The employees are nice. They deliver. Not as good as Kim's was, but much better than East Meets West, and Kam Fung. read more

Best Chinese food take out place I have ever tried and def best in Rockaway. Consistently good and fast delivery.

Good food. But for a lunch spacial it's not cheap for them to give a tiny plate. Plus I asked fir a bottle hot sauce and he said we don't have no bottle with a lot of attitude. But food taste good read more

Big Apple - Beef lomain. Lunch soeacial 8.55 with soup. Good but small portion compared to other places - Chinese Near Me - Rockaway Park, New York

The food is amazing. Honestly could care less how the service ever is. The food is perfect every time. Try the Szechuan dumplings you won't regret it. read more

Very terrible customer service. I called at 3:45 pm today October 23 2020. I do not memorize Chinese lunch special times but apparently this restaurant think they are so special that when I say ugh I missed the time the person on the phone had the audacity to hang up on me. Maybe they are racist and believe black people that call do not have money because I always order from this place and that was so rude!!! Then when I try to call back they hung up again when I tried to tell them how rude they are. DO NOT ORDER!!! P.S. I call again and the same man hang up on me again trust me do not order they will probably spit in your food. Call xing xing or better restaurant. read more

We waited for about an hour and a half and the food was terrible! I have never had a more disgusting Sweet'n'Sour Chicken in my life! Do not recommend read more

Finally a really good Chinese Restaurant in Rockaway East meet West sucks big time We have ordered 3 times on a Friday night the food is always fresh and hot and ready to pick up.Ribs on the bone are tasty and the pawns with eggplant are some of the best I have ever had .We also like the Chicken Chow Fun with extra onions. Food is not loaded with salt like so many other restaurants . read more

Good food! We order delivery on the website, which is so convenient. Delivery is prompt, the food tastes great, it arrives hot, it is packaged well and they never forget anything we ordered. In the Rockaway area, there are not as many choices as there are in Brooklyn. This is a great choice! read more

They used to be good. The last few times we have ordered the food has been tasteless, lacking sauces and just recently the shrimp (dumpling) smelled bad and was therefor inedible. We called to let them know and they accused us of lying and hung up on my husband!?! They figured us out: our whole plan was to order these last few years to eventually get a free shrimp dumpling. Safe to say we will never order from there again. Save yourself some money and order from Garden Dragon on Rockaway Beach Blvd read more

ok so living on the Rock you dont have a ton of choices. well one of my normal spots is Big Apple because you get a selection thats out of this world. great Japanese and Chinese selections and there are a ton of combo platters to choose from. i had one problem which i will save for last. here you go...... steamed pork dumplings are out of this world. They literally explode with flavor when you bite into them. delicious!! we got a large order of boneless ribs, the sauce was a bit on the sweet side but we got a mountain size of these babies, probably could have fed a family of 6!! Jax got the C16 shredded pork with garlic. nice tasty bite after bite the pork was juicy and tender as the vegetables had a perfect crunch. each was loaded with sauce that mixed well with fried rice. now for the down side. be sure to look closely at the pic i posted of the C4 General Tso's Chicken. now i have never been to an Asian country but i have gotten this dish a thousand times. what i received from Big Apple was chicken fingers in Tso's sauce. the fried batter on the chicken was like eating meat wrapped in a pancake. the sauce drowned the batter and made it a soggy mess. i had to peel off all the batter that surrounded it just to digest it. sorry guys, not impressed with this mess. If you are gonna post a certain dish, sell the dish. sure ill be back but i will probably stick with Lo Mein. read more

Always ordered from this restaurant, I'm not sure if the changed management but they leave out items in order and food is a hit or miss. Spoke to manager, will never order from here again. read more

This place used to be another crappy Chinese American restaurant and nothing has changed. I was not a fan of this place. It is your typical rude, impersonal, shitty Chinese takeout-which RB has way to many of to begin with. I ordered the veggie met fun and garlic egg plant dish. Blah. Everything was bland and filmy with grease. The plus side was there was a good noodle to veggie ratio but I literally had to add my own seasoning to give it a taste. My friend's eggplant dish was worse. The thick brown sauce tasted like nothing. Overall, not a fan and I wouldn't recommend it here either. I rather go to East Meets West on 129th for healthier and more tasty options. read more

Very very bad customer service. When you call with question about your order they are dismissive and just hand up while you are talking AVOID THEM!!!!! read more

I've ordered food from here a couple of times based upon recommendations of family and friends. The quality of the food is great. The quantity is more than enough. I have not been disappointed with my food so far. I would give five stars but the woman who take the delivery orders over the phone is hard to understand and has a hard time understanding English and I've found myself repeating what I say several times. Add to that her slight rudeness is almost enough to make you want to just hang up and order from somewhere else. But I've been glad that I didn't both times. Great food. read more

The food here is okay, depending on the night. Sometimes the oil tastes off and sometimes the egg drop soup is too gelatinous. I really wish there were some decent takeout joints in this area, especially Chinese food. For now I will most likely stick to East Meets West. read more

Maybe because I'm used to a higher echelon of Chinese takeout, but this place really cuts corners where they can - overly sauced dishes, greasy fried rice, frozen bag vegetables, and questionable meats. My coworkers love them, but I'm a Bayside girl and I've got to maintain my standards. read more

This is my go to Chinese take out in Rockaway...lunch portions can be a little small tho...the only thing I don't suggest ordering is their egg foo yung read more

Just what you need out of a cheap friendly Chinese take out. They deliver in a large radius and reasonably priced with online order option

In just tried this restaurant for the first time. It is apparently a new Chinese takeout. The food was fabulous. I ordered a General Tsos Chicken Dinner and with Hot and Sour soup, which was full of mushrooms and tender, silky tofu. The chicken was moist and tasty, and the Fried Rice actually had egg in it!! I haven't seen that in years! Obviously these people know what they are doing. I had become disenchanted with the other places in Rock away, but this place hooked me right from the beginning. It is on BCD by the postoffice. Best Chinese takeout in have had in years read more

The best Chinese food I've had in years! Normally Chinese isn't my 1st choice for takeout and when I do want it I'd only go to east meets west. But they haven't been on point lately, sobon a recommendation from an acquaintance, I tried Big apple. Soooo delicious! So much flavor, not salty, not limp over cooked vegetables like everywhere else, no mystery meat. My husband also loved his food. Even his soup was different he claimed. Somehow the pretty standard hot and sour soup was extra good at this place. Ate there 3 days ago but don't care, going back tonight for more :) read more

I was excited that this place delivered in the 60's. I ordered the general tso chicken. It tasted pretty bad and was the size of chicken fingers,it was pretty nasty. I was disappointed. I didn't even finish it. read more

My favorite chinese in Rockaway, always fresh and delicious.they are affordable and efficient.

Very good first experience with this place. A+A was our favorite place in Rockaway, but it closedown. The food here was very fresh and well prepared. It's a little bit more expensive than the average Chinese place but well worth it. Not greasy and flooded with salty sauce. Seafood tasted fresh. We will be ordering from them again. read more
