Truly hideous. I should have been warned off when a restaurant with signs proclaiming "authentic Sichuan" offered me pad Thai and sushi. Newsday recommended this place, so I'm thinking about canceling my subscription. read more

The first two times we went to this restaurant the food was good. So we decided to go again with my kids. This time the food wasn't that great, it was very salty. All I tasted was soy sauce. After we paid and signed the bill for the meal the waiter took it. Then a few minutes later we saw him talking to another waiter and we overheard they were talking about the tip. Then the waiter threw the bill in my face and walks away. Then I asked another waiter why he through the bill ,then he said he was not happy with the tip. Then we consulted him of what he did then he gives no apology or explanation. We had a very bad experience. read more

Excellent quality & tasty authentic Chinese food. Had a variety of dishes including, General Taos, beef & broccoli, LoMein, hot & sour soup & fabulous steamed vegetable dumplings. Fantastic atmosphere & friendly staff with quick service read more

DId not like this place. The food came out extremely slow. waiting nearly 40 minutes for all of our food the come out and the place was not even half packed. The service was good, but it wasn't busy at all. it should have been good. We ordered the soup dumplings, hong kong style pan fried noodles and hot and sour soup. The food was mediocre and lacked the flavor of other places. Maybe this is authentic chinese food , but I didn't enjoy it. The soup dumplings held very little soup and the hot and sour was very bland. The pan fried noodle was the best part about this meal. I enjoyed that at least. read more

This is an authentic Chinese restaurant--Sichuan style so most of the dishes are pretty spicy. Best dishes we tried are the sour pickle fish fillets soup/spicy bean source whole fish/beef noodle soup...5 stars on those dishes. Kids also like the pancakes, dumplings and seafood casserole, sizzling platters--non spicy. I would not eat sushi from this restaurant because the authentic food is so much better. Instead of driving to Flushing this is as close as you can get real Chinese food in LI. read more

I never commented before. I went for my birthday and used a gift card. My girlfriend ordered a dish that was supposed to be very spicy and was not. The waitress said next time it will be spicy she did not know us and most people say it but don't mean it. I paid with an American Express gift card for my birthday. Another waiter came back after I paid and said I could not use the gift card for the tip. I asked for the manager and he said that he was not in. I then saw a man in a suit. You may know him, he has a ponytail. He was the manager and part owner. He was quite rude and I explained it was my birthday etc. I also assumed he would have to pay additional percent for the tip on my gift card. He made no apologies and was very rude. We paid the tip in cash. 12 dollars on a 52 dollar bill. I can never go back to a place where an owner did not care and lied to a polite customer on his birthday. I told him I was going to tell yelp. He just got madder. read more

SO extremely authentic Sichuan Food! Better than Flushing. No need to fight for parking either. thank god

This is probably my favorite Chinese restaurant. The food is authentic, spicy and delicious. Be prepared because the food is spicy. Not the typical "how spicy could it be?" But rather, if there's a picture of a pepper next to it, it WILL be spicy. You know the restaurant has to be good when the crowd is majority Asians. The place also has sushi but haven't tried that yet. Next time! read more

My favorite place to eat!! Always fresh.. except the egg roll didn't taste that great. And wish the wonton soup had a bit more flavor. But I'll definitely be back this weekend read more

Amazing! Just moved from Brooklyn and needed a great go to place. Hot n sour, miso soup, eggroll, steamed vegetables, chow fun, sesame chicken. Go here and thats how it is. read more

Your review helps others learn about great local businesses. I have been here a few times now, but I have also been at their other restaurant in Manhattan. Just a little background. I have eaten more times than I care to remember at many restaurants in both Flushing and Manhattan. First of all, I want to say that many of the negative reviews here are by people who I believe never have eaten at the best Sichuan restuarants in New York and really don't know what authentic Sichuan food tastes like. As for their menu being too varied- you have no choice offering some different styles of Asian food when operating on Long Island. There just isn't enough adventurous people on Long Island to sustain only Sichuan food, which is very spicy and, let's just say, a little too authentic for most Long Islanders tastes! That said, everything I have eaten here so far has been better than any dish I have eaten at a Long Island Chinese restaurant. The quality and freshness is a cut above what is available at most of the better Chinese restaurants In Nassau County or Queens. And if you like truly spicy Sichuan food, there is no other place in this area except Chef Wang. As for their sushi bar...it's very good, and the the sushi chef is very hard working and culinarily curious, which is a good thing. All in all though, if you live in Nassau or anywhere near the Queens-Nassau border, and you like fresh spicy Chinese food, this is the best place around, bar none. read more

Found this place in Yelp and the reviews were right! This is my new favorite spot the sushi is great they give you more fish and extras than they do rice which is great! It's honestly some of the best sushi I have ever tasted. I got the beef hot pot and it was yum yum yum!! The service was good and they were very attentive! My only complaint would have been more beef less Bok choy but it was still amazing. Would recommend to everyone! read more

This place is one of our favorite lunch places. It has great seating, reasonable pricing and very friendly wait staff. We usually get the two roll lunch special and shrimp with garlic sauce. They have parking although it's a little tight. read more

Decided to go on Yelp for good Chinese food tonight. Just as reviews said food was fresh and delicious. We ordered won ton soup, general Tsos chicken and Mongolian beef. Plenty of food! Service was great!Decor really nice. We'll be back! read more

Brilliant ambience, delicious food, and pleasant wait staff.

Best Chinese Restaurant I've ever been to. It's so pretty & clean. The food is amazing!! We found it by searching yelp and so glad we had. We've been 4 times now and every time is better than the last! read more

I would give this place 0 if i could. Called and ordered sushi and couldn't even eat it. Called and tried to talk to someone and they argued with us. Waste of money. Will not recommend this place to anyone with taste buds ever. read more

Authentic Szechuan cuisine, though if you order enough, the sauces and flavors start tasting the same. The service is great, and the menu is massive, with a variety of spicy meats, vegetables, and appetizers. Inside is spacious and well designed, with a bar and a sushi bar. I would recommend the lotus root dish! read more

This was a wonderful find, since we definitely need more authentic Chinese places on Long Island without entering Queens. I am not a fan of spicy food, which is the one red flag when going to a Sichuanese restaurant. Sichuan food, arguably the spiciest branch of Chinese food, is very rare in Long Island, which is why this place opened. The restaurant stands alone on the street with little flags and a bright entrance. I love the walkway into the restaurant, crossing over a bamboo bridge over a "river" and a waterfall. The decor tries to be intimate, but falls a bit short. The walls are very bland, the atmosphere is strange, but the chairs were nice and comfy. The service here is excellent, very accommodating, professional. They knew what they were doing and it couldn't be proven that the restaurant opened just a few months ago. The menu is quite large, with the American entrees, the ultra spicy Sichuan entrees, each having 2 or more pepper signs next to the name, hot pot, and a full Japanese menu, made from the visible sushi bar near the kitchen. They have three rooms, a main dining room, a similar dining room to the right of the entrance, and a full bar. Prices are reasonable, not the cheapest, but the restaurant is huge and they sort of stress fine dining. We started off with a nuts appetizer, so people with nut allergies, BEWARE of this. They were a nice start. We ordered the typical soup dumplings, which were a bit more expensive than they should have been. They came out after 15 minutes, very hot. Some weren't closed completely, so one or two exploded. The flavors were so complex. You had the typical soupy, fatty flavor, along with a sweet substance that I wasn't expecting. The skin was very thin. Overall, this was one of my favorite soup dumplings I've had over the course of a year or two. Entrees came out together, all presented beautifully. I ordered the beef noodle soup, which I shouldn't have, since it was very spicy. Since the meat and broth were pre-made, they couldn't really lessen the spice. The broth color was a dark red. The beef and noodles were delicious. The beef was so tender. The broth had very nice taste, but it was very hot for me, but for a person who eats Sichuan food often or can tolerate high intensity foods, this would not be a problem. Their sesame chicken is fantastic, very succulent, great taste, generous portion. If you decide to come here, get their cumin lamb. It is so good. It isn't extremely spicy, but the peppers are on the side. The lamb was perfect, with an authentic taste. It was a great portion, served with spicy red peppers, celery, and green onion. An authentic meal at a very good Chinese restaurant, one that I may go back to. read more

See all

This sichuan cuisine tastes average.there are only few parking spaces at the entrance,looking for aparking space in the street,paying more than 50 dollar and not sending anything,other restaurant over 20 dollar to send a small point. read more

This started as a takeout order. When I arrived for pickup, I asked the man at the register if everything was there. He said yes. (my bad, I didn't double check) Of course when I got home, it was the wrong order. So now I had to go back to New Hyde Park (from Massapequa ) .Since it was getting late, I told the restaurant we would eat there. When my wife and I arrived at the restaurant, we were seated and I asked for menus. Thinking maybe I would try something different than originally ordered. While we were presented with the menus, we never had a chance to order from them as the food from my takeout was being delivered to the table. I asked if this was the same food that was laying in a bag for over an hour and a half and was told no. Before being served, I took a look at the bench where the takeout orders are placed and saw mine still sitting there. As the food came out, it became apparent to me and my wife that this tasted like old reheated food. I went back to the bench and my order was gone. The eggroll was dry and overly crisp (a dark brown) the Lo Mein tasted stale, and the Crispy beef (ordered spicy) was cloyingly sweet. The worst part was the manager never came to the table to offer an apology for the mix up. Needless to say, we will not be going back. read more

Wow real Chinese, great stuff. House made dumplings, scallion pancakes and twice cooked pork belly really great. Delivery was fast, nice to see a restaurant cooking real real Chinese in the area. read more

I pre order online and the food was on time, hot and very tasty!!

I've been continuingly going here and the quality of food has gone down considerably. Today I found popcorn in my soup. This review isn't from a one time visit but multiple. The portions are smaller as well. Won't be coming back. read more

Came here to celebrate Father's Day . Yet we waited for an hr for the main dish to come ! Ridiculous ! No matter how great the food is . The service is also a key ! Won't come again . Plus the price is at least 20 % higher than queens / flushing area for the same Chinese food . read more

The Best Szechuan food I have ever had the pleasure of eating. A common dish of Kung Pao Chicken kicked up 3 notches by a surprise Ingredient that brought sweetness to the heat (finally). The Grand Marnier Walnut Prawns were amazing, the sauce perfect in flavor and texture! And (hang on to your hats) this was a take-out order! So plentiful, we're still satisfied 12 hours later. We are looking forward to visiting their restaurant soon. The Chefs at Chef Wang are skilled in the Art of Fine Cuisine. Thank you, thank you, thank you. read more

This place is awesome. First, its not your typical strip mall Chinese Restaurant. The inside is huge and really nice that includes a bridge and a koi pond. The staff are very professional and the atmosphere is great. Now, about the food...it's a Szechuan style restaurant with a large menu. I've tried something new each time I've come here and they never disappoint. Right now I'm having My Shu and they are making the pancakes table side for me. I've has the crispy pork intestines and it was nice and spicy and tasty. They have a lot of different things to choose from, some unusual if you're not used to this style of food. This place is a must if you want to try some good Chinese food. read more

The best Chinese food around the area!! I am so happy there's finally one good Chinese place to go to. Authentic and just good! Fast service as well. I guess I will be dine in and take out a lot from this place read more

I've ordered takeout from Chef Wang's at least three times. I've found that they excel in a few dishes but do subpar in others. Hot and sour soup: excellent Chicken and broccoli: very good when they follow instructions to use less oil; otherwise it like most of their dishes is too oily. However, the flavor is much more complex than standard Chinese American chicken and broccoli. Duck soup: Not worth the $18 price. Far too salty to even have more than a sip. Chicken with chestnuts: excellent flavor but where is the chicken?? My dish had plenty of fat, skin and cartilage, but I was extremely disappointed to not find more than a single Bite of chicken that was edible. Beef with cumin: very good flavor albeit far too salty, though not inedible. Cucumber with scallion oil: excellent. To the owner: thank you for responding! As I said above, I would love to try your food again, but would suggest ensuring whole pieces of chicken in your "chestnut chicken", and less salt in your duck soup, and less oil overall. read more

Ordering for the first time from chef wang . We ordered wonton soup, chicken mei fun and chicken with string beans. Excellent service and delicious food . read more

Reasonable price for portion. Inside seems pretty clean and nice. Parking lot is a bit small.

In my never-ending quest for the best Szechuan Chinese in NY, I have found my new home. To start off...you need to appreciate the authenticity they are bringing to the table. Szechuan at its core is a balance between the heat of the chilies, the numbing effects of Szechuan peppercorns (which were illegal to import for many years) and the sour that can only come from the black vinegar. They are doing an excellent job of introducing a populace that grew up on Americanized Chinese food (mostly Cantonese in style) to the taste bud tingling cuisine of the Chendu Provence. I highly recommend these must have dishes which they can adjust the spice level to: dumplings in roast chili oil, scallion oil cucumber, braised sliced fish in hot chili oil (not as spicy as you would think), chendu roast duck (in soup..amazing), dry spicy crispy pork chop, dry sautéed string beans, sautéed pea leaves with white garlic sauce (seasonal). All of the soups are very good. Their Americanized Chinese is also very good. As a kid, my family would make a 45 minute drive to get good chinese food. My 80+ year old parents now make the 25 minute drive for the best Authentic Szechuan Cuisine on Long Island. I stopped going to my favorite place in Flushing after the recommendation from Dick G, a Yelper whose opinion I value, and only go here. Please support these wonderful culinary artists. I promise you that you will have a very hard time going anywhere else. read more

This restaurant is the best kept secret outside of mainland china. It truly is the real deal , avast menu with something for everyone . Food quality and presentation truly five stars , service is outstanding from beginning too end . A must go for all Chinezse food lovers. You will not be disappointed . read more

Came back with my wife and had a few dishes. Braised Beef noodles - A+ in my books. Wish it had more noodles though Dan Dan mein - My wife's favorite and a winner. Mapo tofu - Perfect amount of spices. Would repeat. Shanghai soup dumplings - Needs more work. It's just not as flavorful as Joe's shanghai or other offerings in Flushing. The skin was too easy to break. It's a bit dry too. read more

Decided to try out Chef Wang's and it was excellent! It's definitely a bit more Americanized than traditional Asian foods, but we only ordered two entrees, so I'm not sure what the rest are like. As other people have said, the scallion pancakes were light and flaky and not too oily: so yum!! Other appetizers we ordered were the Mango Chicken Wings (good, but overpriced) and pork egg rolls. Also ordered the Kung Pao Chicken (the waiter recommended it) and the Sesame Chicken. Both were a very large portion and super good! Our waiter was very attentive and friendly read more

Read so many good reviews that got me excited, and determined, to try it this place this past weekend... and so very glad I did!!! Was here Sunday evening. Ambiance was nice, clean and inviting. Parking was full but there was off-street parking that worked. We ordered the dumpling soup (little juicy pork buns) appetizers, salt/pepper prawns, fried beef w cumin, yang zhou fried rice, and Cheng du spicy fish and sautéed snow pea sprouts.... ALL WERE JUST AMAZING and did not disappoint my expectation. Regret was didnt come here sooner. They were 4 of us, all first timers and we definitely will be coming back. In fact, planning a dinner with a few of our friends already. Price was good, serving was just right. Spiciness was bearable and can't wait to try other dishes. highly recommended!!! ... cant find any negative to say ---- probably, our new favorite place! read more

I have been here more than 10 times. Their service and food was good in previous day. But now they have more and more customers. You can just expect wait for more than 30 mins for just one course, wait for picking up more than 30 mins when you already called for ordering 1 hour ago. Their service is not so good as before and their food also become worse than before. read more

The service was really bad and they got my food order wrong after waiting almost an hour for it. Not impressed. No reason to go back.

I live in Garden City and have tried a bunch of Chinese food restaurants in the area. This is my favorite. Their soup dumplings are delicious. I really like their chicken and broccoli - I often order just the broccoli in brown sauce with rice and it is a good way for me to eat a giant bowl of broccoli. Excellent egg rolls. Taking off a star because I like some appetizer items better at other places (pan fried pork dumplings, shumai) and sometimes they don't deliver the full order (forget the rice sometimes). But overall, this is my favorite. read more

Awesome food and very different I always have the salt and pepper shrimp and I add a little garlic sauce with it absolutely delicious
