    Fried Rice and Chinese Style Friend Chicken.
    Stacy C.

    I'd been wanting to try this place for a while, but everytime we drove by there was no parking. It's on a busy main road and there it shares a parking strip ( no lot) with other store fronts. Ideally you would have to find parking elsewhere and walk to the restaurant ( typical New York) . Anyway , finally drove by last weekend and was lucky to find parking. There is one table with about 4 chairs on one side and a small counter with a few chairs, keep that in mind if you plan on sitting as this to me is more of a pick up and go scenario. However the restaurant is spacious. Right on the front door there was a sign that they don't have a bathroom. So that also indicated to me this might not be a sit down spot. I was starving and decided that I was gonna sit and eat . When we walked in the girl on staff was on the phone taking orders, there were orders waiting to be picked up by delivery people as well and we were the only ones in the restaurant. I was happy to see that even though the place was empty ,food orders were flying in and out. We ordered Beef Lo Mein and Fried Rice with Chicken . Our food was prepared in about 10 mins and I could smell the vibrant flavors from the close by kitchen and see the chef effortlessly sautéing away . I knew our food was gonna be good . It came out smoking hot and delicious. Flavor was good and enjoyable. My friend rice was a little bland but my chicken was true Guyanese style Chinese Chicken. My hubby got the Beef Lo Mein , I picked out most of his beef and he was annoyed, but sorry,it was too good ,I had to steal it . The only disappointment was that they used a noodle like a narrow fettuccine noodle ,I was really looking forward to the authentic yellow Guyanese Noodle ,I mean it makes the dish so good. However ,it was very seasoned and flavorful. The girl at the counter was the only one there but she was handling the phones, packing orders and sending out the delivery guys as if she could do it with blindfolded with her hands tied. Since she was the sole person on deck I didn't want to distract her from her duties. When taking our order she was attentive and didn't act like we were interrupting. Friendly enough for me but I usually engage more. We ate and as I sat there I wondered if another type of customer would have had a similar experience. Someone who had no idea what this type of food was and wanted to ask many questions, etc . Would they have felt attended to or rushed. Just the kinds of things I look at from working in restaurants for many years. Anyway, food was fresh, hot and good. I'll go back for pickup here again when the cravings hit. They also have a catering menu so I will definitely get trays for future events. The restaurant was clean . The kitchen in small and mostly open so you can peek in from the from counter.

    Chef Quang makes some of the best Guyanese style fried rice in NYC. No restaurant thus far has been able to take me home to Guyana while eating their food but Chef Quang at least gets me to Cheddi Jagan airport. I have been here several times but have only ordered their fried rice. Their mixed fried rice is my go-to dish. Their fried rice is not too oily and meat is fresh. The shrimp could use some seasoning but eaten along with the rice it's fine. Their menu contains other classic Guyanese dishes like fried shark, black pudding, etc but haven't built up the courage to try them yet. In the area and want to try something different, give Chef Quang a call!

    What you need to know: - The Chinese is one of six ethnic people celebrated in Guyana's national anthem. In fact, Guyana's first President was Chinese! - restaurant is unpretentious and seems to do mainly take out and delivery - has 5 tables (seating 15) and 5 bar stools - has very clean bathroom! - extremely friendly staff - accepts credit cards What I ordered: - House lo mein $7.95 - flat broad noodles mixed with shrimp, BBQ pork, Chinese sausage (lap chong), beef, chicken, and veggies. This was excellent! The noodles were nicely seasoned, had a soft chewy texture and didn't clump together. The shape of the noodles is not the round lo mein of normal Chinese restaurants! 5 stars for this dish! - Chicken fried rice $6.25 - I also got one piece of jerk chicken, which the staff kindly allowed me to substitute in this dish. The jerk chicken had a nice smokiness but was a tad dry. The regular chicken was very tender and tasty! However, the fried rice was nothing to write home about. I was hoping for more spice or scotch bonnet pepper in the fried rice but it seemed like just soy sauce.

    Every time (3 time)I order eat-in that's how I'm served up ...I'm pissed!!!

    Every time I travel from California to New York I get food from Chef Quang. Reminds me of the Chinese food I ate as a child back in Guyana.

    Very solid Chinese food spot. We picked up food to go and the restaurant looked very clean and…read morespacious though no one was eating in. The food was very fairly priced and the portions were huge. We got the pork soup dumplings, pork fried rice, szechuan chicken (which came with white rice), and pad see ew (which though not listed comes with pork, chicken, and shrimp). Everything was solid, but our favorite was the fried rice which had a ton of flavor. I liked the veggies that were in the chicken dish but there were just way too many of them compared to the chicken and I wasn't crazy about the sauce. The pad see ew wasn't made the traditional way I've had it with soy sauce and oyster sauce. It had some sort of orange sauce that tasted closer to a sweet and sour. It wasn't bad it was just not what I was hoping for. The soup dumplings were solid, no complaints there. And the fried rice was great, lots of flavor. Overall, I liked this place especially for the price but I'd probably order different things if I went back.

    I had a taste for Chinese food like good old school. Chinese food and I happen to look on one of…read morethe delivery apps and located this place. I found parking down the block and walked over to the restaurant. It seems like more of a delivery spot because there was no one inside sitting at any of the 5 tables. It's a fairly good size space, very simply decorated, mixed with a cool wall resembling a curio cabinet of treasures. I chose a spot in the middle and went to the restroom which was clean and simple. I noticed there were a lot of takeout orders, from delivery services to local folks picking up their regular dinner. I looked over the menu and decided on salt and pepper wings and an order of shrimp. Fried Rice came out first and it was delicious. I even tasted a hint of salted egg yolk mixed into the egg mixture friefried up with the rice that signature crispiness with the little saltiness.... fantastic. The salt and pepper wings were different than the ones i'm accustomed to though the flavor was amazing.It didn't have the fried garlic, peppers, chilis, and onions that i'm accustomed to being in the dish. They were still flavorful, juicy and crisp and I could tell they cooked them fresh.That was much appreciated. I ended up taking half of my food home because I was stuffed.Thank you Msm Ellen and the Crown Garden crew for a tasty solo dinner.
