Took my parents here this past Monday, 11/26/12 - to celebrate my mom's 65th bday, since she's a Chinese food fan gone wild.
We ordered the Scallops w/veggies, Shrimp Eggroll, Egg Foo Young, Chicken Subgum, w/fried rice. Food was great!
Made me a bit nervous that we were the only patrons in the establishment, but I'm glad they proved themselves. ;) But I selected this place trusting my fellow Yelpers' reviews too!
Our server was a bit timid but was very friendly, just think I startled him w/my enthusiasm and questions about the menu.
TIP: Try to sneak in before 3:30pm so you can save a bit in $ and order off of the Lunch Menu.
Their fortune cookies were even tasty - obviously, they don't make/package them in-house, but whoever they chose as a vendor - 2 thumbs up! I could taste nice vanilla and almost a tad of cinnamon? Yum!
Awesome lunch specials!!! Â Quite a few to choose from. Â 2 Items with soup for under 5 bucks!! Large portions, fresh, and hot. Attentive, fast, and pleasant service is the standard here. You can't really go wrong.
We dine here quite often and have never had a complaint at all. As a rule in Astoria, most all of the Chinese places are about the same as far as quality, pricing, portions, etc. Â It is the typical Americanized-Chinese fare with very subtle flavour differences between the main players in the restaurant scene.
