    Pork fried rice (notice how yellow the rice is)

    Thurs lunchtime must be a bad time to order here. The food had no flavor - NONE. The wonton/egg drop soup was very dark yellow, like coloring had been added (but without flavoring). The moo shu chicken was awful and wasn't delivered with hoisin sauce to help matters. The Orange chicken was actually general tso's flavored with what seemed like a bit of orange juice, not enough to add any flavor. The pork fried rice was flavorless and also dark yellow in color. I'm truly sorry I paid in cash. I would have returned the food and challenged the $75 credit card bill (incl tip). My first and last time buying food here.

    Wonton Egg Drop Soup
    Meri L.

    Was in the mood for Chinese...I'm always in the mood for Chinese. Decided on egg drop wonton and shrimp with lobster sauce lunch special. It came with pork fried rice and an egg roll. Everything was delicious! Egg drop wonton soup came with 4 wontons. The broth had delicious flavor! Egg roll was good as well, wasn't greasy but was still nicely fried. Shrimp with lobster sauce was the best tasting I've ever had! So much flavor! It came with 5 jumbo shrimp. Fried rice was good as well. I would absolutely order from here again!

    The receipt.

    Not bad, but not the best Chinese food. Delivery time was FAST! I don't know if it was because I ordered at 4:00 or because it was less than 2 miles away, but that was pretty nice. The tiny-ass rice box that comes with a pint of food just isn't enough. I'm just left with a container a quarter way full of sauce with no rice to soak it up. When I ordered delivery through Yelp, I had an option for how spicy I wanted my Mapo Tofu (Bean Curd Szechuan Style), so of course I put EXTRA SPICY, but I could barely feel the spice and it was very sweet. It wasn't disgustingly sweet, but come on. I may be American but I'm not afraid of a little heat. Over all it was ok.

    This Chinese joint should be 4 stars. Food came fast, and a large order, roast pork with vegetables was the only thing that was meh. Everything else was excellent- check out this spread in the photos. Singapore noodles were really good.

Overall the food was amazing 9.5/10 The entire meal was delicious, the noodles were perfectly cooked and the dishes full of flavor. The Leychee shrimp balls were excellent, the mashed cucumber salad was refreshing and full of flavor. All the dishes were seasoned well, the special dumplings were a little over seasoned and thus the 9.5 instead of a perfect 10. The tea was refreshing and not overly sweet it was the perfect accompaniment to the meal.

    ***INDO-CHINESE FLAVOR BOMB IN YOUR MOUTH*** ***SUPER…read moreFRIENDLY FAMILY-RUN RESTAURANT*** INDO-CHINESE? In the early 1800's a large number of Chinese citizens, immigrated to Calcutta, a city in the northern part of India, close to China. After becoming established, many of these immigrants started opening restaurants to support themselves. And then, because of a lack of certain ingredients, and to tailor the food to the palates of the Indian citizens, these Chinese chefs altered their recipes. And these new recipes, incorporated certain Indian spices, and a heavier use of spices and sauces - which made these new style dishes especially appealing - and created what is known today as Indo-Chinese, or Indian-style Chinese food. MASTER CHEF MIKE TENG Mike Teng, son of Hakka Chinese parents, was born and raised in India. He started cooking at 14, and eventually became a head chef preparing Indo-Chinese food in Mumbai. Then in 1984, he emigrated to the US and worked in the restaurant industry, until he became executive chef at the famous Jade Eatery & Lounge in Forrest Hills Queens. And it was here that he became notorious for his unique cuisine, and went on to receive numerous accolades. A DIFFERENT APPROACH After seven years of grueling work at Jade, Mike decided to take a break from the restaurant industry for a while. Then in 2019 he opened Teng's Restaurant, and set up operations in a way that would minimize work. As such, the restaurant would only open for dinner, between 4-11 PM, and there would be minimal table service. So let me explain how this works: You sit down at a table, and a friendly family member takes you order and helps with recommendations if necessary. And then you grab paper plates & cups, and plastic utensils from a shelf by the front counter. There's also a refrigerator here with drinks to choose from. And then the food is served to you at the table in take-out style containers. THE KEY TO ORDERING HERE There are a relatively large number of items on the menu, but most of the dishes can be broken down into a few different styles, such as Hakka Chili, Manchurian, Salt And Pepper, Orange, Szechuan, Basil, Kung Pao, and Ginger & Scallion. And the key to ordering here is to avoid choosing multiple dishes in the same style, as the meal & flavors can become one-note in nature. But if your vigilant, and pick some of the best items from each style, you will be rewarded with an Indo-Chinese flavor bomb in your mouth. FIRST TIME? GIVE THESE A SHOT So a few recommendations to try on a first visit, if you're able to enjoy spicy foods would be: - Hakka Chili Style Chicken or Beef - Salt and Pepper Style Fish Filets or Chicken - Orange Chicken or Kung Pao Chicken - Manchurian Style Fish or Chicken - General Tso's Chicken or Tofu - Ginger and Scallion Chicken - Szechuan Wontons or Momos - Orange Glazed Wings or Hakka Chili Wings - Basil Fried Rice - Hakka Noodles And here's a few vegetable recommendations: - Manchurian style Cauliflower or Salt and Pepper Cauliflower - Szechuan Potato or Potato with Black Bean Sauce - Spicy Stir Fried String Beans. - Mapo Tofu - Manchow Soup with or without meat YOU'RE PROBABLY GONNA LOVE THIS PLACE After many visits here with dozens of different people, I've noticed first-timers always react the same way when trying one of chef Teng's best dishes. Their eyes open wide, and the head starts slowly shaking side-to-side, and then I hear grunts of mmm! or wow! I mean really, it never fails to be a wonderful surprise for everyone. But don't get me wrong, not everything on the menu is a home run. For example, some of the Asian fusion dishes such as Pad Thai or Mango Chicken are just weird. So even though there are some things to overlook here, such as no lunch service, or the cafeteria style vibe, If you choose some of the chef's best dishes, for sure that flavor bomb is going to hit you right in the mouth, and you'll definitely be coming back here for more. I always do.

The wait was less than 20 minutes but then another few minutes before we were given menus. We went here because a friend told us they had good Peking duck. Well apparently they sold out the night before. Not quite sure how you sell out of Peking duck on a Friday but then have none for the rest of the weekend. Nonetheless we stayed but we really shouldn't have. This is definitely an Americanized Chinese place. The spare ribs barely had meat on the bone and the meat was tasteless. I did enjoy the wontons in my wonton egg drop soup and the beef skewers were tasty. They made the moo shoo pancakes for us which was nice. The scallion pancakes were all dough and maybe a sliver of scallion. I don't think I will return even if they guaranteed the Peking duck. I can't imagine it would be worth it. As an aside, besides the people who worked there, I think hubby and I were the only other Asians. If you're looking for Chinese food (other than the Peking duck), there are numerous other Chinese restaurants with tastier food and definitely better service.

Our favorites are the General Tso's chicken, which is perfectly crispy and coated in just the right amount of sauce, the crab rangoons, which are generously filled with crab and cream cheese, and the house fried rice, loaded with a great mix of proteins and plenty of egg. If you haven't been here yet, I'd absolutely recommend giving it a try.
