My group and I came in because we were hungry and hadn’t eaten all day and the place right next this one was closed so we decided on here. The menus were basically empty, sure there were choices but the descriptions of what was to be in the dishes was unknown. The service was awful as the servers we had could not comprehend our simple complaint that our ribs that we had ordered were cold and offered to “reheat them”, with a straight face. When it came to the main course the whole dish was flavorless and we had to add salt and pepper to season. Something that wasn’t explicitly said is that there is a fee for having a party that is 4 or more so they considered that their tip. Generally the whole experience sucked and you’d be better off going to Panda Express or just going tot eh Starbucks down the road.

My group and i came here to eat we were starving, saw this place in the corner and decided to dine in. While ordering i asked for straws, the waiter looked nd rolled her eyes at me. While ordering my boyfriend Got bbq ribs, they were COLD. we politely asked to just take it off our bill but they were being rude. eventually the manager said it was okay. Once our food arrived my chicken chowmain had no seasoning. as well as my groups chowmain. My chicken was cold nd bland. Over all waste of money.

Amazing 100 year ambiance with curtained booths for the prohibition era and trap doors in the floor. The food is amazing and always served with a smile and great taste!

The restaurant is quite traditional Chinese style, the service was good from the waitress.The dishes are not authentic Cantonese styles, the leaves did not have good flavor, the prawns were just breaded, they did not have boiled chicken with ginger, the lychee is just canned. Overall we didn't like the food

I wouldn’t recommend this place when we left it seems like the waiter didn’t want us to leave till we gave him a bigger tip that we already gave him even we put the tip on the table before we were about to leave. We gave him a good amount. The service was terrible. Not coming here ever again.

If you want an authentic Chinatown experience, this is the place. The food is great and the the booths with the curtains are such old school fun. A short walk from the Chinatown gates. My NY family loved it. I will go again!

Old style Chinatown restaurant with great food and a retro atmosphere. They are short on staff so service is a bit slow. Pack your patience.

Great food and service. But inflation and Covid has slowed China Town, affecting all business.

I only ordered the soup with ravioli and shrimps, and I have to say, although I'm not an Asian food enjoyer, it was really good!! Especially if compared with the price of it! It was a pity just for the service... not that good as they were a bit in a rush... they just wanted me to be quick. But the food was good! I recommend it for groups!
