Fried squid
Rich W.

I finally visited Congee village here in Flushing after many years visiting the Manhattan restaurant only. I must admit this location is very cool! We had family visitors from West Coast and this was a convenient place to meet. The food was very great! See photos! We order classic Chinese dishes and was very happy. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I love the old fashion decorations; it's look a museum! Definitely will visit the Flushing restaurant again.

4.5 Stars, rounding up to 5 Stars! I honestly don't know why Congee Village has such a low rating! I've been here several times, and each time, the food & service was fantastic. Now I have to admit, some of the prices are outrageous!! Barramundi Sea Bass (2.5 lbs) was a whooping $95!!! And a big plate of Snow Pea Leaves w.Garlic was $26!! Crazy high prices but the food is delicious! The Barramundi Sea Bass dish was a large portion, and has to be one of the best fishes dishes I've ever had in a Cantonese restaurant. Other restaurant also serve this dish but Congee Village's version is outstanding. (It better be at $95!! lol) Customer service is excellent. The servers are always friendly and attentive; very accommodating to my senior relatives. Note that there is a parking garage in the same building as Congee Village but does NOT offer a discount to Congee Village customers. Rates are $12 for 2 hrs; $15 for 3 hrs...not too bad! You can take the elevator straight up to the restaurant from the garage. This has been the most requested restaurant for my relatives from San Francisco. A visit to Flushing is not complete until they get their Congee Village fix! Hahaha

Steamed Rice Roll with Cilantro
Jessica L.

Congee village has been my goto for the not so hectic dimsum place. I like it that it's not overcrowding, you can sit comfortably. For a dimsum restaurant, they don't open until 10:30 and if you want congee of noodle dishes, they aren't available until 11am. I don't understand why people have to wait until 11. For the most part, their food is solid, doesn't really stand out. I do like they're made to order steam rice rolls, the cilantro is my favorite. I think their portions are pretty decent and service is good.

Stewed Pork & Preserved Vegetable
Lily L.

Came here with a huge group of people which was great because it allowed us to try a bunch of different dishes. To start off, I always love the Sautéed Snow Pea's Leaf with Garlic and Lobster with Sticky Rice. They were definitely a table favorite along with the Pork Chop in Peking Style. It was a couple of people's first time having frog was that was fun to watch as well but frog honestly just tastes like tender chicken so we all enjoyed that as well. The only dish that I thought could've been done better was the Honey Walnut Jumbo Shrimp. It was just okay because I felt like the breading was too thick and it wasn't crispy at all and overall was just lacking in flavor as well. The honey walnuts in that dish though were still delicious. I will definitely be back here again. Probably with a big group as well next time because I do want to try quite a few more of their dishes and probably some dim sum dishes as well!

Service here was okay. The dishes we ordered were great and got to the table very soon after ordering. I came with a group of 3 and we sat comfortably. The tables weren't super close together like what you'd get in the rest of Flushing and the AC was flowing. I hadn't known this gem existed for years. The sampan porridge ($8.50 per order for 4 small bowls) did not have the usual ingredients, but it was delicious nonetheless. I added a deep fried dough to go with the porridge for $2.50 and was happy with the portions. We got sweet & sour pork for the table and it was fried and flavored to perfection. I couldn't stop eating it and the portions were huge. I would definitely order this again. The fried filet fish dish with salt and pepper was disappointing because the ratio of fried fish was less than the saucy side. There was complimentary fruit after the meal and desserts too. Looking forward to ordering more of the sweet & sour pork next time and trying more dishes.

First time at congee village and I really enjoyed my meal! It was a gathering for my family and we order so many dishes - we got soup, lobster stir fried sticky rice, fried mantou, sweet and sour pork, and of course the Peking duck Service was super quick and responsive, we had dinner around 7pm on a Saturday and there was a good amount of tables open but still busy. Great place for the locals and older folks to gather for dinner. I really like the interior and how spacious it was compared to other restaurants. My favs from tonight were the Peking duck with the bun and the sweat and sour pork. I did wish the buns were slightly thinner or the duck was sliced thicker but delicious nevertheless.

Beef congee
Betty C.

Weekday lunch was quiet in the huge space. We ordered a beef congee and seafood fried noodles. The congee serving felt small but the noodles were delicious and generously sized. There were dim sum carts being pushed around but we weren't in the mood for that. Service was ok.

Linnea E.

My friend and I stopped in while waiting for a shop nearby to open and it paid off! We didn't check the reviews until after we had sat down and the low rating had us worried, but our experience was great. It's a surprisingly large restaurant with lots of cool decor and plenty of seating. There were also a ton of people there which speaks to the quality of the food I think. The dim sum cart stopped by several times and we had more than enough food. Everything we tried was really good and I definitely would go again, even though I hadn't planned to go on the first place!

Barnie J.

We had a team lunch here and reserved a private room in the back, which was perfect since it also came with karaoke. One of my teammates took the lead and ordered for us, which made the experience even more fun. I'm a big dim sum fan, so I was excited--and the spread didn't disappoint. Everything we tried was tasty, but the duck was definitely the standout for me. The only thing I would have liked was for the staff to be a bit more engaging, but overall it was a great time and a solid spot for a group gathering.

Schella O.

Wonderful spot for a family or group meal. Friendly staff. Very busy and so it may take a while for the food to come out. I've previously come here for Sunday DimSum, definitely check it out for an expanded menu. Food is fresh, piping hot and flavorful. I especially loved the fish (can't remember the name, but it had dried radish, this dish was the definition of umami.) Nice place for dinner after a lot of shopping and exploring in the area.

congee village has been a staple since childhood. the food is always gas and huge portions. the service is always yum and it's very classic canto dishes

My husband and I love the food here, so we decided to dine here again on a Friday evening. Food is delicious as always, and staff are busy but very friendly. We look forward to dining here again!

Service was minimal at best but they just seemed under staffed honestly. And when the server did come by, she was running quickly to and from. The place was not busy when my friends and I were seated. But there was a back room in guessing that had occupants since she was missing in the front seating area. (There was a two person table occupied in the front near us). My party of three over ordered but that was intentional because, any purchase over $100, you get a free lobster and each of us had items we wanted, figured we would doggie bag the leftovers. All in all a great value. The lunch spread had over 7 dishes and we got the free lobster. I was especially happy to see Fried Milk on the menu as an appetizer. They also provide complimentary salted peanuts and pickled radish and carrot slivers. I recommend the snow pea shoots, fried milk, clams with black bean sauce and the Chinese Broccoli with Filet beef. The other dishes like the lobster, noodles and sweet and sour pork were executed well but just not my flavor profile. And with my food allergy, I couldn't try the shrimp with walnuts but it was my friends' birthday so she ordered that for her treat. It looked great! There's complimentary parking if you validate your ticket with a nearby garage, but you need to spend a minimum.

The…read morerestaurant was fairly full and the strangest thing almost all the patrons were wearing their wool hats and coats while seated at their tables. We were famished and only focused on what yummy dishes to order. My wife, son and daughter all contributed their suggestions and we ended up ordering pan fried whole flounder, half of the roast chicken with garlic, filet mignon with Chinese broccoli, fried rice with chicken and salted fish and everyone's favorite dish salt & pepper squid. Once we placed our order and were enjoying the roasted peanuts and free spicy cabbage we realized why everyone had their winter coats on, it felt like they had the AC on and it must have been 55° in the restaurant. I told everyone that once the food arrived things would warm up. Each dish that came out of the kitchen was perfectly cooked and was delicious. The salt & pepper squid with it's minced jalapeños kept us warm enough until the half chicken with garlic and filet mignon and Chinese broccoli came out in rapid succession. The star of the show turned out to be the giant sized pan fried flounder which was not only big but quite scrumptious. Unlike the little scrawny flounder that most other restaurants usually served this was a quite large and very meaty and perfectly cooked. The last dish to come out was a very large plate of chicken fried rice with salted fish. If it were not for the lack of heat, I would have given Chef Wong Bistro 5 stars!

Honestly, these are the reasons that sets Crown One apart from most of the other Cantonese restaurants. As mentioned, the food here is solid, but it does have some ups and downs.

I don't know if it's because my taste buds have changed but the food just wasn't as great as I remembered it. That being said, I definitely still enjoyed it. Stating off with what I liked most, the pineapple soda was super refreshing. It was not too sweet and perfectly bubbly with bits of pineapple within. The carbonara was great as well. The noodles were perfectly al dente and I just enjoy creamy noodles to begin with. The curry fishballs are always a staple and the same goes with the steamed rice rolls with mixed peanut sauce. Cannot go wrong with those two appetizers. The sandwich was a little disappointing. I know the items are in the name of the sandwich but it fell really flat and I guess I was expecting a little more. The baked rice was not great either. It took a long time to arrive which we weren't upset about as we were warned when we ordered but for something that took so long, I expected it to be a lot better. Maybe we just ordered the wrong item and should've gotten the baked noodles instead of the rice? Overall the food was okay, the service was good and the restaurant liked very nice and clean. I enjoyed the fact that the menu was under a glass on the table so I was able to keep looking at it too while I was eating to see if there was anything else that looked interesting.

Pork w/ Thousand Year Egg Congee was one of the better ones around the area. Somewhat thicker than I prefer, but tons of stuff and quite flavorful. I would say that the Shrimp w/ Egg Sauce on Rice was pretty decent too. On the downside, the Fried Fish Fillet w/ Bean Curd was not what I hoped for. While the bean curd was cooked well with plenty of flavor, the fish had a thick batter and over fried, not tender at all. Another underwhelming dish was the bland tasting Dry Sautéed String Bean. Regardless of the small hiccups, I still find this restaurant to be where I can find some good quality old school Cantonese comfort food.
