    Sesame chicken
    Kevin M.

    Just ordered sesame chicken and it came like it doused in hot sauce and the chicken was fried twice. Oily and red. It doesn't even come with any broccoli. I used to order here back then and the food was good but I don't know what happened. They even got my order wrong when I asked for pork fried rice, they gave me white rice. SMH

    i personally their sesame chicken/general tso's is really good. I've been getting it like once a week and it has yet to disappoint.

    Half of what's suppose to be a jumbo shrimp. But you do get the legs still attached lmao

    The only good thing about this place is that there's a nice seating dining area lol that's it. Food is average, customer service? Nope none. So I call for delivery and ordered something coming out to $7.65. Lady said minimum is $8, they can't deliver because it's not $8. are you kidding me ? So you about to lose a customer over 35 cents huh? I'm not a first time customer too I'm a returning customer many times now. So I said ok I'll pay the driver $8 it's not a problem. Lady was like "ok whatever you just pay $8" these were her actual words! What kind of manner and service is this? I hope owner sees and looks thru these review Ordered again from here for delivery today. So many things wrong with this place idk how they're still in business. Ordered shrimp and broccoli with garlic sauce and hot sour soup. The sauce in the shrimp and broccoli was super watery. No garlic sauce taste at all. I did see some peppers but absolutely bland. The hot and sour soup was a mix of plain old egg drop soup and they threw in some spice and vinegar and some veggies. Damn. And the shrimps aren't cleaned properly. The legs of the shrimp are still attached and they are peeled very carelessly. These are supposed to be jumbo shrimps and seem like half of the shrimp was peeled away. And it gets worse. When the guy comes he looked at the bill I had in my hand before telling me the price. And then he looked at the receipt and hesitated a bit. Probably wanted to get more tips. When I open the bag no napkins at all. Absolutely terrible.

    Good potion and prices. Chinese and Spanish food and actually tastes pretty good. Doesn't look too appealing on the outside or the interior really but it's a nice place. I really like the pork chops it tastes nice and not hard or dry at all like some places have it. The plantain is nice, not too authentic but tastes good and not too sweet or oily. Good for takeouts or lunch too. Decent service and speaks both English and Mandarin. Would go back from time to time!

There was a long wait as we put our names down for a party of four, but there is a lot to do in the mall as you wait. Our party of four was able to get seated on a Sunday afternoon after about 30 mins or so. The indoors is very well decorated and it has a nice dimly lit atmosphere. Something this place does do really well is the plating and presentation. Our first appetizer were these shrimp balls and they served 9 items on this really stunning tree holder. We ordered pork, some boiled bok choi, and Peking duck. I think in NYC this was the best Peking duck experiences I have had. They provided a large variety of toppings more than just the basic green onions. They ask if you want the bones boiled or fried afterwards. They provide a large amount of wraps for you to enjoy, and the duck was prepared beautifully. Now this place does get pricey but my friends and I loved our visit. They show you how to make each roll, they provide plastic gloves are you prep the duck rolls. Will definitely plan to come back, every thing we ate was fantastic and we had a great time. It does get a bit pricey however.

Check in at the kiosk when you arrive and stay close by--we missed our name being called and had to wait another 30 minutes after an already 2-hour wait for our party of five. Once seated, we understood why it's so popular. The restaurant features a beautiful water wheel, multiple levels of seating, and a lively atmosphere. You customize your meal by choosing your broth, meats, vegetables, and sauces. We started with the spicy broth, but it was overloaded with chili peppers for our taste, so we switched to the herbal broth, which was rich, fragrant, and absolutely delicious. The fresh ingredients were the highlight. We enjoyed the water spinach so much that we ordered three servings. Other favorites included the milky beef, lotus root, beef balls, bean curd sheets, and several other fresh selections. The extensive sauce bar let everyone create their perfect dipping sauce. Considering the generous portions and quality, the prices were very reasonable. The wait is long, but the outstanding food makes it worthwhile. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Flushing.

    Food: 4.1/5 Service: 5/5…read moreAmbiance: 3/5 Overall: 4/5 We came on a Friday morning around opening time and were lucky enough to not have to wait for a table (though many parties did have to wait). We were seated towards the back of the restaurant where we found a cockroach crawling on the bench seat. Also, the straw decoration on the bench seat was uncomfortable throughout the meal for me particularly. Our waiter, since it was our first time, helped us a lot in choosing the broth and its spice level (we ended up getting tomato and mild chongqing), as well as helping us with the amount of food we would be ordering (which turned out to be almost the perfect amount of food for our party of 6). Some of my favorite dishes that we got were the: - Wide Potato Noodles - Doesn't take that long to cook, SO chewy and nice, pairs well with any broth or sauce - Enoki Mushrooms - My favorite kind of mushroom, even more chew and great noodle substitute - Fried Breadsticks - Very crunchy and don't lose that much crunch whenever dipped or soaked in the broths. - Sliced Beef - Standard and really good meat option for hotpot. Some of their specialty beefs are also interesting, but I ended up just preferring this over those. - Beef Tendon - I lied. This was the best meat option. Extremely soft and melts in your mouth. Doesn't take more than 5 seconds to cook. Just so good. Even with everything that I liked, I didn't find that much that was superior to other hot pot places that I have been to. I did enjoy the food that we did have, but with the insane wait that I would likely have if I came back as well as the high price of the meal, I don't know if this would be worth coming back to in the future.

The environment is clean, and staff was welcoming when I dined here on a Friday evening with other Yelp Elites. The restaurant filled up with people very quickly. I cannot remember having better Northeastern Chinese food anywhere. The food came with an amazing presentation, taste, freshness and quality. I am a huge fan of the Cumin Flounder, which is crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. It is the best flounder that I have ever tasted in my life! The Beef Tenderloin in Brown Sauce is to die for. I loved the Minted Salted Egg Yolk and Sliced Pumpkin so much that I will come back here to order it for Thanksgiving dinner. If you can handle the spice, go for the Fried Squid Head with Spicy Peppery Sauce. It was the table favorite because most of us prefer the head or tentacles of calamari to the rings. The Molten Sugar-Crusted Yams and Dates were phenomenal. It came with a bowl of water on the side to remove stickiness from the serving spoon between helpings. We also feasted on the Sautéed Shredded Beef with Spicy Pepper, Cumin Lamb, Sliced Potatoes with Truffles and Salt and Pepper Shrimp. The pickled salad certainly tickled my fancy. TIP: Eat everything with chopsticks for portion control. Thank you Andie for putting this all together, and the birthday cake that Mike bought for you was a decadent surprise because it was so chocolatey and moist.
