    Came here on Wednesday night so we got to enjoy some live music during our dinner! Ambiance is beautiful. The restaurant is actually very spacious inside. Loved everything from the soup dumplings to crispy duck. Ended the mean with some matcha ice cream. They even have a lot of veggie options. Their cocktails and menu are very creative - have a look at the pics! Please support your local businesses!

    Literally found a roach in our cup when we ordered canned cokes. Felt so sick and upset so we asked for the manager but the owner came. Not a single apology and he just kept trying to take our cup away. During the midst of all this, our entree arrived and we didn't want to eat it obviously. The owner's response to that: "do what you gotta do." So I'll do what I gotta do and at least warn others before they think about eating here.

    Excellent Tai restaurant Delicious house salad with mango and amazing dressing. My Chicken Pai Tai is Amazing with a little spice added to the flavor. Nice portions as well.. My waiter Tsering was Excellent as well courteous fast service and a wonderful attitude. The place is located in the heart of Great Neck and is a gem of a find,will be back.

    I went here on a weekday night with my grandparents and uncle. We have been going to this small local "chain" restaurant for a few years now and they have never disappointed. This restaurant is huge so big parties can be well accommodated. We got seated promptly and the host was very nice and happy to see us. We started off with edamame which was lightly salted and steamed to perfection. We all loved the edamame appetizer. I ordered the tamarind wok glazed chicken. I really enjoyed it. The meat was juicy and tender and the sauce lifted up the chicken flavor. Only thing I wished for was a touch of spice to cut some of the sweetness of the sauce. My family liked what they had to order which were the duck tacos, and the wok steak. We had matcha ice cream for dessert that I thoroughly enjoyed. Matcha is my favorite ice cream :) Thank you for having us, we will be back !

    Singapore noodles

    Went to Wild Ginger with some coworkers for lunch on a Friday. I had been to other locations of this chain, and they pretty much serve Americanized versions of basically every type of Asian food. Lunch specials run about $10, which may be common to the NYC area, I'm not sure. I ordered the Singapore noodles, which resembled Singapore mei fun, and requested that they make it spicy. It wasn't spicy, but it was decent, if not a bit oily. The presentation was good since it was served in a tiny wok, but I could definitely see the pool of oil at the bottom of the wok once I had finished. Not bad, not great.

Two friends and I went to dinner at Suko Restaurant on Middle Neck Road. When we arrived, I asked if we could sit outside, and the owner had no problem with that. While we were enjoying our meal, one of my friends mentioned that the edamame needed a little more salt. Seeing the owner outside, I politely asked if we could have some salt. To my shock, he suddenly started yelling at me and told me that I was being rude. At first, I thought he was joking, so I responded, "Can you imagine how rude I am to my husband?" His response was completely inappropriate and offensive. He said that if he were my husband, he would slap me on my behind over and over again in a sensual manner and that I would enjoy every moment of it. My friends and I were absolutely stunned. When I asked him to stop and bring us the check, he then said that "you Jews always give me problems." A few minutes later, after I told the waitstaff that I intended to share my experience on GN Mommies, he came over with hot sake to apologize. He even offered to refund our meal, but I declined. I don't want anything from someone who makes hateful remarks about Jews. After living in Great Neck for 40 years, I have never experienced anything like this. As a Jewish resident, I was deeply offended by both the inappropriate sexual comments and the anti-Semitic remark. I will never set foot in this restaurant again.

If you're looking for a comfortable, clean, white-tablecloth restaurant serving consistently good Chinese food, this is the place. Tonight I brought a friend who is visiting from Europe. As soon as we walked in, Irma, the manager, warmly greeted us and seated us right away. Irma is always so gracious, and attentive. She has a natural way of making every guest feel genuinely welcomed and remembered. My friend ordered a lychee martini, which she thoroughly enjoyed. We shared half a Beijing duck, steamed Chilean sea bass prepared two ways, crunchy seafood fried rice, and finished with ice cream for dessert. Everything was delicious. Eric and Miki were our servers tonight--attentive, professional, and pleasant throughout the evening. The entire team, including Eric, Miki, Alex, and Johnny, is always welcoming and attentive. My husband and I dine here almost weekly, and over the years we've brought many family members and friends here as well. Moonstone has truly become one of our favorite neighborhood spots for authentic Chinese cuisine.

Menu is very limited with the protein options though with a few choices of noodles (spicy, ramen, or soup versions). They also carry poke bowls which I have yet to try. I did enjoy my beef over rice very much. Thin slices of beef, super tender and delicious. The sauce was on the sweeter side which was drizzled onto the beef as an au jus. And it came with half an egg, pickled radishes and broccoli. Another dish I enjoyed was the fish and cabbage hot pot. That was served with a bowl of rice. No noodles. Even with the spice level at "one pepper" rating, it was too much of a kick for me. But those that like spicy will enjoy it just fine. The fish pieces it came with were generous sized portions and this bowl was loaded with vegetables. Wood ear, mushrooms, cabbage, sliced white radish, and bean curd skin. It also has a few slices of spam (which I did order extra so I'm not sure if the normal is two slices). We also tried the pan fried pork gyoza which was perfectly fried on each side. Nice color. Taiwanese pork as a side comes with one pc per order. The fried chicken appetizer could use a little more spices but the chicken was so tender and very juicy. I liked it a lot. It does come with a dipping sauce which helps but I didn't use it much. All in all a good spot for take out but the menu will need to be expanded in order to have longevity. Sadly it didn't look busy each time I came to pick up. Staff is attentive and friendly.

On this particular occasion I decided to order via Uber Eats and was not happy with my order. It was cold by the time it got to me. Here's what I was told by the driver - the order had been mistakenly picked up by another driver and he had to wait. When I called the restaurant to try and get the truth the gentleman answered the phone was evasive on what happened and when I questioned him further he got defensive and said that he wasn't there when "it happened" I still don't know what happened - did the wrong driver take the food and it had to be remade by restaurant and wait for another driver. OR was the food returned by the first driver to the restaurant and the second driver took the bag and delivered it to me, in which case I had multiple hands on my bag. Just to be safe - never ordering from that restaurant again and never using Uber Eats again - both places are equally at fault here. Can't stand not being told the truth - that's underestimating me

But what missed the mark for me was the "room for improvement" on a few things. The ramen was decent, broth was not packing enough umami for me. The extra noodle portion was ample. Overall the ramen just lacked that oomph factor but it's a decent noodle soup otherwise. The other item was the poke bowl we ordered. It sounded great on the menu but arrived a bit disappointing. The bowl was only half full and skimpy on the rice and ingredients in general. While it offers so many choices and includes a variety of items in three categories - it doesn't justify the portion. I believe you get more at standard poke place. Now onto my sashimi deluxe. It came with a bowl of rice but not with miso soup. I realized it when I got the bill. Many places have entrees that come with soup or salad (my bad for assuming). Overall food was good so no complaints there. I just wished the proportion was to par. On that note, I've ordered from them many times for home delivery and they are very good with packaging and delivery times. Despite my rating on this visit, it's still a solid spot to dine in.

Also, early on, we had a little service issue that was tacitly resolved in our favor. We only wanted to order appetizers at first and later order the main courses. The server told us words to the effect that they take the order for everything at the same time because if later the restaurant is packed, the kitchen gets overwhelmed, and, also, they bring out the food whenever it's ready. As requested, we gave her our order for everything, but ultimately she was able to just serve the appetizers first and then pause until we were done with them before she brought out the main courses. My wife wanted a sweet white wine with her fish, like a Mosel. The closest they said they had was a fruity white Riesling, called Selbach/Incline, which turned out to be very fruity and delicious!
