better than average Chinese food restaurant. the family loved it. You are not rushed. No real low cal dishes though.

Came here for dim sum after doing some shopping.. found this place convenient while in the area. Luckily we just beat the lunch crowd on a Saturday. Not a very big place but sufficient number of tables. For dim sum, they do have carts that go around and you can order or order via the menu and they will bring it to you. We ordered our staple dishes: shumai, fried crispy dumpling with pork, fried dough wrapped noodles, shrimp noodles, beef noodles, roast pork buns- all to share. Tea to wash it down with. Prices on par with those in Chinatown, Flushing etc. Overall food was was ok and service was good. Plenty of options on the menu if dining for dim sum, lunch or dinner. Shared parking lot with other stores in the area. read more

1/5 Stars - WORST SERVICE EVER! Just had the worst dining experience at this dim sum place in NYC during winter. I told them right when I walked in that I get cold easily and asked to sit inside. They said ok. But there were clearly small tables available inside. The restaurant was HALF EMPTY! So many seats inside were free. The staff REFUSED to seat me there and forced me to sit by the DOOR. And guess what? RIGHT next to the door with freezing cold air blowing DIRECTLY on me the entire time. It was like -10°C outside and the door kept opening and cold wind was hitting me nonstop! I was literally freezing my ass off! I told the staff it was way too cold and you know what they said? Staff: "It might be better if you sit here." Me: Are you kidding?! There's cold wind blowing directly on me! Staff: "No wind here." ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! The cold air was literally blowing in my face! This felt 100% intentional. Like they were trying to punish me or something. Complete nightmare service. PROS: * Food was probably fine (didn't even get to enjoy it because I was freezing) CONS: * Restaurant was half empty but still forced me to the worst seat * Freezing cold by the door (not suitable for winter) * Staff lied to my face about no wind * Rude and dismissive Save your money and go somewhere else. This place does NOT deserve your business. read more

This is a solid Chinese food spot on Long Island. I've brought my family here and we enjoyed quite a few dinners here. I heard they also have dim sum but I haven't personally tried it. Service is decent but it's better if you speak Chinese, we've tried speaking English to some of the servers and they don't always understand what you're saying. I really enjoy the fried fish fillet with salt and pepper seasoning from here. read more

Tldr: tried to give this place another chance and was disappointed. people come here because it is one of the few authentic dim sum places in the area. Workers and owners are rude. The food is ok at best, and I've found hair in my food and lipstick stains on their cups. They also get the wrong order repeatedly without taking responsibility. I had ordered beef noodles, and they took down mushroom. Didn't want to return, and they charged for mushroom, so I did not complain. Another time I ordered take out, they gave completely different dishes without letting me know. They ran out of a dish and replaced it with something I didn't want and charged me the same price - didn't even bother to tell me or ask me if I wanted it. I would have just taken it out of my order and not pay for it rather than get the greasy replacement dish they gave that wasn't even similar to my original order. They also gave another wrong dish in that same order - but still charged me the same amount (the more expensive price). After I explained it to them, they said they would refund the cost of the wrong dishes without any apology, but never actually refunded me as they promised. They said it would take 24-48 hours to process, but after 4 days, there is still no refund on my credit card. To add insult to injury, there was hair in my food. Dishonest and dirty place. read more

We've been here multiple times and it's definitely our favorite dim sum on LI! Today we arrived as they opened at 11am to celebrate Lunar New Year! Our daughter happened to be off from school and we thought it would be the perfect place to celebrate. They had the carts rolling along and we were able to grab most of our favorites that way but put in a separate order for some dishes as well. We had the roast pork turnovers, egg tarts, custard buns, shrimp stuffed eggplant, har gow, Xiao long bao, shumai, pork and chive dumplings, turnip cakes, shrimp rice noodles, and sticky rice in lotus leaf. Every dish was better than the last and also very fresh. Service is always very pleasant, the waitress even took the time to teach my daughter how to properly use chopsticks! Can't wait for our next meal here! read more

Good dimsum on the weekends (with carts too!). Highly recommend their shrimp dumplings, egg tarts, baked pineapple custard buns, baked roast pork buns and steamed roast pork rice noodle (literally best I've ever had in the US and Asia). Unfortunately, we also ordered the pork chow mei fun and dried scallop with egg fried rice and both were completely tasteless. read more

Wow.... can't believe how hectic our world is... in that I have been in this shopping area for years and for SOME reason did not notice it to stop in. Then one day strolled over while had some extra time - and found it to be an in demand real deal Chinese food sit down restaurant. A brisk and busy place had many authentic Chinese servers and customers. Lots of people ordering family style here and lots of steamed dumplings being brought to tables. Plenty of tables for dining in a comfortable but casual dining room, with reasonably fast paced service. An easily recommended place. So far all dishes tried were good EXCEPT the egg foo young.. as they don't have they expected brown gravy. Instead a dark type of sauce you can drizzle over. Ehh.. Lol. All else so far so good. An enjoyable place to stop. read more

First impression- ambiance is your typical Chinese dimsum restaurant a little dark, reasonably clean but at least the fish in the tank is still swimming and alive! That's a plus + Food (review is just for dimsum) is mid, can't say they are super delicious but they aint the worst. I say stick with the spare ribs, shrimp rice rolls and shrimp dumplings and you'll be alright. The siumai and chicken feet were decent. Definitely stay away from the turnip cake cause was all dough all day no filling, the only positive from the turnip cake is at least it's crispy on the outside. Service was surprisingly good, maybe we went early and there weren't too many people. Got a tea refilled a few times and no slamming food on table, I take that as a W especially for a dimsum place woohoo! read more

Incredibly fresh tastes and made to order food! I have been several times and each time convinced that the meal was better than the previous trip. The dumplings are heavenly- most recently the shrimp...... excellent and even more so! Soup was hot and warming and tasted so fresh. General Tso was also very delicious and filling. The calamari was a sure winner and the appetizer could have been an entree. Service was fantastic and three separate service people came to check on us throughout the meal. All were very pleasant and helpful. Clean bright and great for small groups, this Chinese restaurant can certainly entertain your party with either tables or booths. For sure they will see agin and soon! read more

I've never been a huge fan of the Bethpage Orient, but my dear friend is and this location is mid way between her home in Bayville & mine in Westbury. There's not many exciting places to meet up, tonight we decided to try Orient Odyssey. I hadn't been here since the first weeks after they opened. It did not disappoint and I look forward to returning. Everything that we ordered was exceptionally fresh & well prepared. Service was excellent, the folks here are used to dealing with the locals who know what they want and we watched how interactive the staff was when taking orders.. they have large round tables with a lazy susan which is always great for large parties. The decor is nothing special, the seating is oddly set up & spaced out, almost an afterthought around the comfy green pleather booths. A few large TV's up high on the walls with the Met game on. Very solid, old time Chinese restaurant with an extensive menu that included traditional dishes as well as favorites typical of Long Islanders. Though I did not notice a pupu platter ! Loved the string beans with chilis, Chinese broccoli steamed w some garlic, eggplant shrimp appetizer and chicken lettuce wraps. Jasmine tea upon request. read more

I usually order takeout from here and it's actually pretty good, however coming here during a rush or just eating here in general is just a mess!!! If you come here for dim sum (lunch), depending on what side of the restaurant you're sat on, you're basically neglected. They only have one food cart, so you can imagine how long that takes. The benches are extremely dirty, everytime I've came here the seats are just full of food. I look up and there's an air vent that looks like hasn't been cleaned in years. I ordered ONE dim sum dish and it took about 20-30 minutes to come out. All I ordered was rice. I also ordered a different main dish, we never received it but also wasn't charged. So yeah just order takeout pretty much read more

This place is super convenient for satisfying a craving for dim sum on Long Island! It's definitely not the same as going to Flushing, Queens but still makes for a tasty brunch on the weekends. The service is pretty good and they're pretty efficient given how busy it can get sometimes. I will say that sometimes the chairs and windows are a little dirty which ruins the experience a little but overall it's an easy place to go to and is right next to Whole Foods, Marshall's, and some salon and bagel places. read more

It's sad to note that we've never noticed Orient Odyssey, a charming Chinese Hong Kong Style Restaurant, that we overlooked for years. Perusing the lunchtime menu, I was very happy to see Dim Sum options available in addition to the usual Chinese fare. My knowledge of Dim Sum kicked in so I asked my colleagues if they've ever tried Dim Sum and if they mind if I ordered a few items. I'm no Dim sum expert, but will say I gained some know how from my invitations to Flushing brunches by my Yelp friends...looking at you TC and Anna! These experiences allowed me to take the lead on ordering my Dim Sum choices. Our obligatory Lazy Susan circled our table with complimentary Hot Tea to start us off and then the non-stop flow of orders started trickling in. Two orders of each - Turnip Cakes, Crispy Fried Taro Puffs, Crispy Spring Rolls, Shu Mai, Leek Dumplings. Plus, staple lunch orders for the not so adventurous or so they thought...Chicken and Broccoli, Spiced up General Taos Chicken and another Spiced up Shredded Pork dish. Each lunch order, as is customary came with Egg Rolls and Fried Rice. For this party of five we way over-ordered. But over ordering allowed everyone to get a taste of everything which garnered a ton of mmm's and ahh's. Their initiation to Dim Sum was a huge success! Pat on the back for Pat. :) I respect and admire restaurants like this as the food did not disappoint, the service was friendly and considering all that was ordered our tab was extremely low. Orient Odyssey, you will never again be overlooked. read more

If you like Cantonese Chinese food, then this restaurant is for you. Especially since Szechuan, Hunan, and others cuisines are more in favor these days. This is the third time we went with our Son, DIL and grandson and the food and service was different this time. We love their triple fried salt and pepper seafood dish of scallops, shrimp and squid, but this time the size of the scallops were way too small. There is a $10 price difference between just the squid and this dish; adding three shrimp and two scallops. This is just not worth paying. Otherwise, all our other dishes tasted good per the wok heh of Cantonese cooking. We were four people who ordered three bowls of rice which were complimentary, but when we asked for an additional bowl, they charged us for this bowl on our bill. We're fellow Chinese man, why charge us! read more

Pls. Be careful when ordering their spring rolls. I ordered them and immediately noticed that there was a metal material inside them that I almost swallowed thinking that it was just a bone. This is very dangerous and a health concern. read more

Since moving to Long Island from queens it has been hard to find authentic dim sum or dim sum in general. My friend told me about this spot, she lives around the area. I live about 20 mins further out and did not know about this place. There is plenty of parking which is a big plus! Upon walking in, the ambience was welcoming. The hostess greeted my son and I and seated us immediately. The restaurant was clean, tables were clean, menu was neat and clean, and the vibe of the restaurant was nice, crisp, modern, and clean. They have a nice selection of wines behind the counter on display and available to purchase. The ladies were walking around with carts and there were other servers checking in on us asking if we needed anything else. My son and i got our usual faves : 1. Shiu mai 2. Shrimp noodle 3. Turnip cake 4. Beef stew with turnip 5. A side of rice It was sooooo delish!! We didn't finish it all! We were able to take it home and have it for dinner. Which by the way, tasted just as good!! We definitely are going to start coming here for dim sum! read more

A Chinese restaurant that serves dim sum, Cantonese dishes, and Americanized Chinese food! It's located near Whole Foods and parking is a hit or miss depending on the time of day. The food isn't as good as Flushing but it is good enough to satisfy a craving. You also can't beat the convenience! The dim sum dishes are good. They give you plenty of sauce for the rice rolls. Congee is always served warm but they could put more toppings/ingredients as it's mostly just plain congee. The entrees have good portions but their fried rice is too salty for my taste. I would opt for their white rice instead. read more

It's so hard to find a dimsum spot in Long Island. A friend recommended this place so I thought I give it a try. Let me say that it didn't quite hit the spot but compare to the distance of flushing. It's as good as it gets. I would say majority of their selections are your standards for dimsum. Nothing special nor great. Essentially they have 3 carts. 1 cart carries all their "Specials" like fried eggplant and fish or Turnipcake, pinapple min muffin bun, egg tarts etc. 2nd cart entitles all their mains like chicken feet, shui mai, steam pork ribs, beef ribs etc. and Lastly the last cart covers anything wrapped in churn fun (noodle). They speak mando, canto, and english. Their turn around is fast so the wait time isn't too bad. Overall it's a decent spot if you don't want to trip to Queens. My one complaint.. my only complaint and im sorry. I am a BIG shumai snob. This is purely me. When I go to dim sum and your shumai taste like that... I'm sorry. THAT is NOT shumai... Whatever your chef is making. PLEASE have him try it himself... Chop pork meat. NOT MINCE! Chop shrimp for taste. Essential ingredients oyster sauce, sugar, soy sauce, mince ginger, salt, pepper, dried scallops if you want to be fancy and fish roe on top. You can do chopped carrots to garnish or hell don't put any of that just a small shrimp on top! will suffice. Mix the meat well with Tapioca flour then BEAT the meat so it gives it more bounce instead of mince mush. All in all I will be coming here as it is convenient in hopes your shumai gets better... read more

What a delicious dim sum experience. Sometimes you just need some dim sum. Some steamed rice rolls, some shrimp dumplings, some stuffed tofu, and chinese greens. The roast pork steamed rice rolls were filled to capacity with delicious char siu. The shrimp in the crystal dumplings was the size of a golf ball. The fried stuffed tofu was so fresh, hot, and filled with a giant ball of shrimp. The star is always sautéed snow pea leaves. Bright green, a little crunchy , with just the right amount of garlic. So satisfying. First time eating at the Jericho location and it did not disappoint read more

I took my buddy Russ for some authentic Cantonese style Chinese. We focused on seafood, we had clams and black bean sauce as a shared app. For main we had lobster with ginger and scallion, steamed flounder and a Chinese vegetable I only know as ung choi with fermented soy bean sauce. We also had their deluxe fried rice. We scarfed down the meal without too many breaths. Everything was excellent. That Sunday I went back for dim sum also very good. read more

3.5 Stars There aren't many Chinese restaurants in Long Island, especially ones that serve dim sum, so I gotta say it's good for being one of the few out here. However, it's definitely not as good as the ones in Queens! I've gotten dim sum here (both take out and dine in) and it'll get the job done for a craving but of course, it's not comparable to dim sum spots in Flushing. The have a pretty good selection of dim sum from the traditional items that you can find anywhere (like chicken feet, shu mai, har gow) to other unique items such as the pineapple bun with salted egg yolk (which was really yum). They have the ladies who push the carts so you can see what's available but you can also order any of the dim sum items off their menu that you don't see in the carts and they'll make it for you fresh too. Of course dim sum is always better when dining in rather than take out. I've also gotten several dishes for take out off their dinner menu and it was a good option. The food was flavorful and portion sizes were good, they filled the entire box. The crispy pork chop was fried well and remained crispy for the car ride home. The chicken with garlic sauce was also juicy and topped with fried garlic, a classic Cantonese item. The string beans were also done well but had a bit too much sauce. Those were just a few of the dishes we picked out but overall, not a bad option to get Chinese food. read more

Tonight's tale of woe, there must have been a soy sauce spill into the pork fried rice tonight. The color was way too dark, unlike most pork fried rice, you needed a jeweler's loop to find any other ingredient besides white rice bathed in an over abundance of soy sauce. The eggrolls had oil running out of the bag, plus were bargain basement tasting cabbage. What happened to skilled wok chefs of the Orient ? read more

Tried this place with friends who are also Asian and we have all been looking for a dim sum place in the area without having to go all the way to Queens/Flushing. We went around 1pm so there was no line and were seated promptly. We ordered off a menu (no carts at this time) and most dishes came quickly. Flavor of the majority of our dishes were good (chive pockets, chicken feet, chicken sticky rice, shrimp cheung fen, shrimp dumplings, congee, pork ribs with black bean). The siu mai meat texture was a little odd, but still good. All in all food was probably a 3.5 out of 5, but given convenience of location for those living out east, I rounded up to 4. read more

What a great surprise it was to find an authentic Cantonese restaurant in our area. The food was quite delicious. We had Winter Melon soup, Shiu Mai, and Sauteed Flounder Fillets with ginger, scallions, and black beans. All perfect. The service was great. The prices very reasonable. The atmosphere nice. Very conveniently located on Route 106 between the Northern State and Jericho Turnpike. A real keeper. read more

Run of the mill dim sum! The food is authentic but the store feels out of place. Most will harp on the fact that service is poor and not up to standard, but the food definitely makes up for it. If you are looking for a push cart dim sum in the area this is a place for you. We had the pork su mai, shrimp dumplings, spare ribs, shrimp rice noodle, deep fried gluttons rice balls with meat inside. The food is up to standard but unfortunately no uniqueness to it. There are other dim sum places closer to the city that should be on your radar should you be craving it. But you can't go wrong here! read more

I couldn't decide what to order in for lunch at work. Then I spotted a take out menu that someone must have dropped off. I then went on yelp to look at most recent reviews which were not good. But they offered free delivery and I think it's horrible that places charge $3-4 dollars for delivery. I saw they had pineapple chicken so I decided to give it a try. I asked for the dish to be prepared with no vegetables just chicken and pineapple. They said it would be like 35 minutes but arrived much quicker. The chicken was delicious as was the pineapple. The sauce as Guy Fieri says you could eat on a flip flop. I was there was more sauce to put on the white rice that came with it. I noticed on my bill they charged me an extra $3.00 for extra chicken I guess due to no vegetables. Turns out I'm glad they did as I have enough for another meal. Will definitely order this again read more

Revisited recently and would like to note some updates. Shu Mai - good as usual Turnip cake - it's good and my husband likes it, but it was too oily for me, wish they could tap off the excess oil before serving. Fried shrimp ball - crispy but too oily for me, wish they could tap off the excess oil before serving. Chicken feet - didn't like the sauce flavor Peking pork chop - not the best sauce flavor Beef rice rolls - my husband likes it, but it tastes too starchy for me (I did like it from my previous review, could be change of my taste or change of their recipe). Century egg and pork congee - for some reason some the pork inside the congee is really salty, overall the congee was fine. read more

My mom and I came here for lunch on a Sunday afternoon. It did take a while for them to seat us as they were very focused on take-out orders. When we did sit down we were given the lunch menu, which was quite limited. We asked for the regular menu which had a lot more options! To start I had egg drop soup. Delicious. Wasn't overly salty and I was surprised to find a whole egg in the soup! What a unique twist. For appetizers we ordered off the Dim Sum menu. Shrimp dumplings and pork shumai. Very yummy and generous portions of shrimp and pork in each dumpling. We also shared soup dumplings. 8 come in an order! Such a generous and delicious portion. Now for our meals... I ordered chicken and broccoli. A classic Chinese dish. It was very yummy. It wasn't salty and the classic brown sauce had a different flavor than what I'm used to. It was very fresh and flavorful. Lots of chicken also! The chicken to broccoli ratio was perfect. My mom ordered garlic shrimp with snowpeas. Tasty as well. It came with 10 shrimp! Generous portions, great flavors in every dish! Service was decent. Our waitress, Joyce, took care of us and made sure we had what we needed. Water was always filled. I will return! read more

My wife tried the Shrimp stuffed eggplant, she thought it was just ok. I opted for the Long Pepper with Shrimp, spicy with hot peppers, scallions, and green peppers, also just fair.

The worst customer service. It's my fault for giving them a second chance. I would give it 0 stars if I could. I ordered 4 BBQ Noodle soup dishes and once I brought it home, no BBQ pork. Just noodles. I call back and the audacity of the woman to say "we busy so what??" You kidding me? No remorse, no trying to apologize for their negligence. Then she proceeded to speak to me in Cantonese like I would understand what the heck you're saying. Maybe you're rude in your culture but get it together! Last time I ordered from here, again picked up food myself and several dishes were missing. If you decide to pick up from this sham of a restaurant, check your bag before you walk out of their doors. They will nickel and dime you and when you call, you'll get nothing but the rudest, most loudest chatter in your ear like it's your fault you even ordered from this ridiculous business! read more
