This is my Chinese cuisine, which is pricey slum Chinese food but still better and less expensive than other places in the area. I used to spend my days at Ollie's, but they've now moved to Shanghai.

My goodness. I've had this place on my to-do list for almost a decade. Here's the deal, this is legit traditional Americanized greasy-spoon Chinese. There is no online ordering, and I'm unsure if they accept cards (please use cash to keep these places open!!) What you have instead is a very clean small dining room with all of the nostalgic old school American Chinese restaurant. And a woman in front who takes your order faster than you can make it - capped off with the list art of using a speaker line to send the order back. I know it's hard to see prices this high for what's a native New Yorker's struggle staple dinner. I'll give you my word it's worth it. The combo platters are still very reasonable. Service was super quick, you got a few minutes for candy crush max. Everything was well packaged. For the food, I got cold noodles (sweet peanut butter), crab Rangoon (amazing red sauce and fresh fried), kung pao, and general tso. Definitely classically sweet sauces but packed a spicy punch. I'll be back as a regular for sure!

Decent, Chinese-American style take-out with all of the standards. Good value and generous portions. Excellent delivery - I am about 15 blocks away and my order usually arrives in 30-60 minutes.

Total saving grace to have a reliable Chinese takeout in the city blocks from where I was going. Tried two combos and soups. All fresh and made quickly. Happy to be here. Was unsure until I read Jareds review - then went right in. They made me cashew chicken not on the lunch menu- very accommodating and cool.
