Beef noodle soup
Maria R.

Ordered delivery a few times and the food is really good. Beef noodle soup is delicious and great portion. Pork belly buns are tender and a must get. House fried rice another delicious and love the portion size. They listen to the delivery instructions. Hot oil wontons another winning item wontons are hefty and juicy.

N1. Braised Beef Noodles
Jen C.

Randomly saw this place and decided to give it a try! The bao were very tasty and I really enjoyed the Chinese greens they are just steamed so I like them plain. It's nothing fancy but healthy. It was missing hoisen sauce that Chinese places usually put on top. They only had their house soy vinegar and hot sauce for the dumplings. The dumplings were ok, the skin is a bit too chewy for my taste. Overall it's a nice little spot, they have a bathroom and it's clean. It's self service style where you order and they bring you the food but then you clean up after yourself and get your own utensils and condiments. Cash only spot!!!

N2. Braised Beef Noodle Soup

Great braised beef soup and beef and kimchi pan fried dumplings, service was fast for takeout

I can see why this is an average place. This is a serve yourself place and the person at the front wasn't even that friendly. I get that it is cash only. So, that's one downside. I guess since there are banks everywhere that drawing cash at a reputable place isn't so hard. Unto the food the dumplings that I ordered were good, but the noodle soup wasn't so great. I wish it was, but it was subpar and needed more flavoring. I had to add a lot of hotsauce. All in all, I'm not sure if I'll return.

Shrimp over rice
Claire L.

I've been here before and don't remember it being this bad. I tried their dumplings this time. Before I got the shrimp over rice which was alright. The dumplings were terrible. Seriously, I couldn't even finish them. Frozen dumplings from Trader Joe's are SIGNIFICANTLY better. I'm sad to right such a poor review as I love Sunnyside and supporting the local businesses... but I truly don't think you should waste your money on these dumplings. Oh, and it's cash only but they still tax you. The dumplings are $4.50 but I was charged $4.90........

Scallion pancakes with a tiny piece of scallion
Hannah S.

Ordered delivery. Among the food we ordered, the scallion pancake had hardly any scallion?!? The sauce was just soy sauce, For some reason thought it would be different. Underwhelming ‍

Braised beef noodle
Jane K.

Ordered the pork and chive dumpling and the braised beef noodle soup. Worst beef noodle soup and dumplings I've ever had. The soup tasted bland and had zero flavor. I had to experiment and add soy sauce + siracha but it was hopeless. The brisket was way over cooked. The dumplings looked crispy on appearance but were an odd texture and were too doughy. Save your time and money and make instant noodles and dumplings at home.

R3. Grilled Shrimp Over Rice R5. Shrimp Fried Rice
Skylar S.

Fav restaurant ever, every time I go I get grilled shrimp over rice which is top tier But anyways service is nice and good, pretty fast, too. Food always hits, yum yum, and the portions are pretty good, lowkey big which is cool but yeah 11/10 recommend!

Veggie Dumplings
Vivek D.

Came here for some veggie dumplings during lunch. Dumplings cost $4.25 which is a pretty solid deal. It's cash only, which is kinda funny because they charge tax on food as well (hmmmmmm) You get about 5 dumplings in your order. I ordered it for takeout and it took about 10 minutes or so to receive my order. You can get it either fried or steamed. I chose pan fried, but I gotta try it out steamed next time. Is it the world's best dumplings? No, but it satisfies my cravings.

Beef Bao Buns
Isi A.

We ordered the cucumber salad, and all bao- variations, scallion pancakes and spicy beef and kimchi. The bao buns were perfect fluffy clouds, melting in your mouth. The vegetables on them were marinated and tasted fantastic! The beef-kimchi, was mildly spicy and so flavorful. If you are in the fence about ordering here, please do. You won't be disappointed.

Worst dumplings I've had in the city. Dry, flavorless, deep fried instead of in a pan.

First time here and they did not disappoint. The dry pot was amazing. Large portion sizes…read more Definitely over-ordered but will make for get leftovers. We ordered the dan dan noodles for an appetizer, chewy noodles and good flavor. Then we had the custom dry pot (we put chicken, tofu, Napa and Choy medium spicy) that came out tasty and fast. And finally we ordered the crispy fish which was HUGE but crunchy and flavorful - definitely more food than we expected but it's okay! Servers were friendly and even though there was an error in our order they were quick and ways to fix. The restaurant is small and hole in the wall, feels authentic. AC wasn't on so a little warm with all this spicy food but overall will definitely come back with friends and family.

A forgettable lunch I had here. It's not terribly bad but I can name a couple other Chinese…read morerestaurants I've had a better experience in. The restaurant is a few blocks from the main street of Steinway so it'll take a bit of searching. Going inside, the area is rather abstract. Pink flower wallpaper on one end and dry wall on the other, it's kinda off-putting but I didn't come here for the atmosphere anyway. Service was lukewarm, I got my order in but the two workers inside weren't too receptive and the menu itself is kinda barebones with most of their food being a bit more than I would like to pay for so I just settled on one order of Singapore Mei Fun. After waiting 10 minutes for my food to arrive, the Singapore noodles which are usually spicy were kinda salty but it was nothing a bit of duck sauce wouldn't fix. This one order cost $17 while not the worst Singapore Mei Fun...well technically it is, even though it's not horrible but I've had much better from other places for a stable price of $12. Yeah, a rather disappointing visit. Not the worst I've ever had but could be so much better.

Absolutely delicious, fresh, crispy, generous portion, and great value! Price is very reasonable,…read morethis costs only $9.75! Ask for hot sauce and pour some on it, it tastes even better that way and it isn't overly hot. Customer service was great too and I walked in to place the order and it was ready in under 10 minutes. I will be a repeat customer for sure!

While the rest of the reviews are pretty good. This one isn't a good review…read more My daughter went there for lunch today and ordered shrimp and broccoli. Once she got to her destination, she opened the food container so that she can begin eating. As soon as she looked down, she noticed that there appeared to be something on her shrimp and was compelled to walk back to the restaurant and ask for either a refund or newly prepared food. The host/clerk (person behind the counter) told her it was grease and refused to either refund her or prepare a new meal. So my daughter sent me a picture of the food and I told her it looks like the shrimp has herpes! Never the less, she didn't eat it nor did she cause a fuss and Just walked out. The consequence of poor customer service usually results in a closed business. It's a shame how these restaurants come to our neighborhood/country and refuse to provide valuable customer service. I gave 3 stars because I'm pretty sure she went there before and it was good enough to go back.

the food is super fresh. the service is great. the ambiance is classic. what more could you want?…read moretry the fried wontons and dip them in sweet and pungent sauce!

Don't know what other reviewers expect from a quick service Chinese food venue but allow me to shed…read moresome light for this place. As a local NYer who grew up with this type of comfort food, it's important to understand the distinctions. If you're expecting restaurant style food, do your research next time. When you're looking for a quick fix of stir fried foods, rice dishes drenched in glazed sauces, and crispy appetizers, this place did the trick. On my rainy day visiting my companions and bringing back takeout, this place provided us the food we needed. Most Chinese food takeout places would slather on so much salt, high sodium seasonings, watered down sauces, and very stale old cold rice. This place did none of this and they did a great job with their mixtures and flavors on my dishes. My only troubling thing was deciding what to get as everything looked good to order. Food bought on my side was the beef and broccoli - easy to tear through the beef bits, glazed and marinated nicely, and the broccoli was cooked well. My crab rangoons (what this place is known for) was extremely crispy and still hot when I arrived to my friend's place with melty cheese goodness in the center. Last is the shrimp eggroll - crispy and a bit bigger in portion than I usually get at other locations. No complaints on any items ordered and they all tasted fantastic. Staff is very nice and professional too. They also make sure to not miss out on giving any utensils or sauces to go with your orders. A better option for takeout Chinese food compared to the other neighboring places in this area as noted by my friend and Astoria local.
