“Yong Wang kitchen is one of the better local Chinese take out joints in the East Islip/Islip Terrace area. Consistency is important to me and Yong Wang is that. No surprises because they use different cooks on different nights.The chicken in the sweet & sour chicken is always tender and fresh. The veg fried rice is good, as they add a bit more vegetables than many other places. Tired of getting a container of rice, with two pieces of broccoli at the top, and then just rice.They are quick, 10-15 mins on most items and they are always pleasant when greeting you.“

I've been getting take out for about 5 years now; they'll ask if I want my usual when I call. 10 minutes later, I'll have a fresh hot meal with soup n fortune cookies for $12 again. Cash only.“

“This place is the best Chinese restaurant around! Been coming here since we moved to the area 15 years ago! Never disappointed, the owners are always so friendly and welcoming. I especially love their vegetable dumplings and sesame chicken! I love supporting a family owned small business.“

“Tried this place Friday night, didn’t expect it to be so good. I do like sichuan food but haven’t had very good experiences outside of Flushing, but this place delivered! Dry pot and beef with chiles was fantastic. I didn’t expect them to have good sushi but wife got some specialty rolls and was surprised how fresh and well done they were“

“Absolutely delicious fresh cooked food. They are very welcoming when you go there. I recommend the chicken lo mein, dumplings, etc. Honestly the food is delicious 😋.“

“My first time coming here and it won't be my last. Let me start by saying. If this place was in my town I'd eat Chinese three times a week. The food was absolutely delicious the lady that took my order and served me was so friendly and so nice I can't wait till I'm working in the area to come back for lunch again. I got curry chicken which is not a common meal and they cooked it perfectly“

“great food and Mai Tai 👌 😋“

Delicious food,I had the pineapple fried rice with shrimp, amazing with lots of Large fresh Shrimp,the pork buns were so yummy and the Thai pineapple chicken tasted like something you would have in Hawaii!! Highly recommend you give Mr. Wang a try, you will thank me later…..“

“Oriental Kitchen is our family’s new favorite Chinese in Suffolk. We recently moved to the area and have been trying to find a decent New York style Chinese spot and last night we found one. Yay! The food was fresh and delicious. We ordered classics like beef broccoli, general tsos, veg dumplings, wonton soup and chicken wings. Wow!! I agree with the other reviews, you can taste the love they put it into the food. Vivian, the young lady at the counter was so warm and friendly. Please please keep the freshness and quality consistent as we will be ordering at least once a week moving forward. Go to Oriental Kitchen. You work regret it.“

“Hands down the BEST chinese/szechuan restaurant in Long Island. I've been to many restaurants in Flushing and Manhattan and I gotta say that Spice Workshops food is even better than some of those restaurants. The flavor is very authentic to what szechuan food is suppose to be. My recommendation for ordering:

- Fish on spicy oil
- Shredded pig feet with peppers
- Cabbage
- Sweet and sour fried crispy pork
- Hunan beef with green peppers

Free rice and tea refills. Price is very reasonable. Service is outstanding. Highly recommended!“

“Really love this place..wish they delivered..always fresh..real fried rice not yellow rice! Fresh fried wide noodles amazing! Homemade duck sauce is a MUST! Everything we have ordered has been great, 1 time tried something new was a little too fried for my taste but it wasn't bad. Service is always friendly and helpful! Really sweet hard working people!“

“Hua Sing is truly spectacular! Every dish is made with love, healthy, delicious, and full of flavor — food that nourishes the body and feeds the soul. Their menu is complete and wonderful; everything I’ve tried has been tasty, balanced, and prepared with such care. Prices are very reasonable, and the quality is unbeatable. Eating here makes your heart and soul happy again. Without a doubt, one of the best places to enjoy food made with love!“

“This is the most consistent Chinese food spot I've ever known. The quality is always on point and the service is quick. It's a Chinese food spot that gives you exactly what you want at a very reasonable price. Can't ask for more than that. I'll be eating here for a while.“

“Just ordered after a long drive up to long Island from Virginia and orded from them and they gave me a little bowl of fruit and 3 cookies like a free little desert. I had had a very bad few days and this made my night my husband pulled the little bowl of pineapple out and my face just lit up like a little kid. 🙃 I told the kind young lady on the phone we were hungry and they listened!! It was delicious. Carnival worker from the empatheater!!! ❤️“

“Something changed. Ordered via Uber Eats last night and the food quality has improved immensely. I’d all but written this place off based on past experiences many years ago. I’ve tried almost all Chinese takeaways in the area over the last couple of years and none of them come close to the freshness, taste and quality here. The prices are very reasonable in comparison, too! If the restaurant owners are reading this, keep doing what you’re doing. It’s working!“

“We order direct from the Panda Garden website for delivery, and love this place! The black pepper chicken is divine, as are the cold sesame noodles. This is our go-to place for American Chinese food and has been for close to 2 decades. We love Panda Garden Centereach!“

“Have been ordering from here for over 10 years and the food is consistently delicious and hot even when they’re busy. If they make an error they always offer multiple ways to fix it. Also if you haven’t tried their specialty soups you are missing out bc they’re one of the few places that does them well and at excellent prices.“

“Great place to enjoy peanuts and leave shells on the floor while you wait for a seat. You can even have them at your table. The warm bread with honey butter is the next event to fill your stomach before the actual meal starts. Chili is a great appetizer. I think most of the side dishes are fine. Steaks are good but whatever you do, stay away from any sirloin. Even prepared at medium, it tastes and chews like shoe leather and not the rich Corinthian leather kind. I've been there numerous times, but I guess the visits are spread out enough that I forget to avoid the sirloin. My default cheap nature guides me to sirloin and I regret it after the first bite. Ribeye, NY strip and anything else is fine. I'm not sure I know what their “road kill” cut is or how it tastes.“

“The BEST dim sum on Long Island! Very accommodating when placing phone orders. Food is always fresh and hot and delicious.“

“Been a customer since moved to Brentwood in the 80's the food and service has always been fantastic.

Vegetarian options: Vegetarian menu is definitely a go to

Dietary restrictions: Steamed anything is super fresh and delicious.“

“I’ve tried to visit this Chinese restaurant a few times, and I finally made it and I’m glad I did! The food was delicious and definitely worth the wait. My first meal was a bit on the salty side, but when I returned another day, the flavor was perfect well-balanced and satisfying. If everything continues to taste like it did on my second visit, this place is a hidden gem in the area. A definite must-try!“

“Our company has been ordering from Cheung’s Garden for many years — easily over a decade — and it has always been a reliable option for Chinese takeout.

This time we ordered lunch for the entire office, including chicken wings, boneless BBQ spare ribs, shredded pork with garlic sauce, and chicken with broccoli, along with several large bottles of soda. Overall, the food delivered exactly what you’d expect from classic Chinese takeout — familiar flavors, generous portions, and dishes that work well for group orders.

The chicken wings and boneless BBQ spare ribs were popular and well received, and the chicken with broccoli was solid and consistent. The shredded pork with garlic sauce, however, wasn’t as strong as the other dishes and felt a bit underwhelming compared to similar versions elsewhere.

That said, for office lunches and large group orders, Cheung’s Garden has been a dependable go-to for many years, and we’ll likely continue ordering from them.“

“My daughter started dance in this shopping center, so we figured we would give this place a try. So glad we did! We were pretty turned off to all other Chinese food in the area, so our expectations were low. This place turned out to be AMAZING! Delicious, tender white meat chicken with broccoli, excellent boneless ribs, fried rice and steamed dumplings. We loved everything! Will definitely be returning as this is our new go-to for Chinese food. Thanks for the great experience!“

“The Food here is great! The egg rolls are perfect and not greasy. The Fried rice you can modify to eliminate things you don't want in it like corn & Peas, YAY! and this is the first restaurant where the wonton soup is not too salty, its great and you get a ton of wontons! Love tis Chinese Restaurant!“

“I’ve been going to Top China for YEARS and I have to say it’s the best Chinese food I can find. I have moved away from the area and will still drive to top China for Chinese. I have tried manyyy Chinese take out places and Top China is most definitely number 1. The family is also very sweet.“

“Cane here for the 1st time, and the food was great. A bunch of my co-workers placed an order, and I was sure that they would get something wrong, but everything was perfect. Great food and even the women behind the counter were great. She threw in some free wantons because we spent so much. I got the boneless pork and it is prepared differently than most places do. They use chunks of ribs rather than the thin stripes many other places do. Dumpling were great!...recommend 100%“

“I Love This Place! There restaurant is very clean. There staff is very respectful. & there Food is Amazing. There food looks so clean & Fresh lol! I’m very Picky When it Comes To Chinese Food. To be Honest if it’s not from jades Garden I won’t eat Chinese Food. Try Them Out there Amazing!!“

“Definitely 5 stars 👍👍👍👍👍👍“

“My family loves Jade. Very Good food and they follow instructions very good. We love the delivery man. Always plays with our 2 beagles. We order regularly from here. I know it's going to sound weird but we have an elderly senior living with us who can't swallow vegetables good. I ask them to not include vegetables in a lot of dishes and they always do so. Very grateful. Only place we get Chinese from now.“

“Wow! This place was amazing !Sesame Chicken was awesome ! Just the right amount of sauce along with the best fried rice ! The boneless spare ribs had 0 fat and were cooked perfect! Even the soup and eggrole was great ! Strongest homemade hot mustard around. But more importantly amazing people running this store for over 30 years !tThe lady (I didn’t get her name yet ) and her husband were so sweet , Im so happy I found this place ! I actually went two days in a row. Must Try !“

“1st time trying. I have tried MANY Chinese food restaurants around this area for over 12 yrs, and never have i been this satisfied! I ordered my usual... Fried dumplings, shrimp toast, combo beef and broccoli, which comes with fried rice and an egg roll. Now for many places thus far, i have never been able to find where all the items were good. Its usually none or one or two of the items i order. ALL of it was very good! I like how you can order delivery directly from their website and pay cash upon delivery (like the good ole days!). And while its not that far, I am in Centereach and this place in in Nesconset, it is about 4 miles away which is not directly in my local area and yet it still got here pretty fast and HOT! I would definitely order from them again based on taste alone!“

“Absolutely amazing me and my wife pick up food here all the time they have great Chinese food always fresh and tasty and so close to the house the lady at the front I always ask her how her daughters are doing and how her day was. They are good people that work hard and the quality of the food shows it .“

“Best Chinese food ever. Love their Shrimp & Broccoli..Perfect! Sauce delicious. Great egg drop soup & Chicken Noodle soup..Steamed Chicken Dumplings are delish.!! Nice friendly people..Been going here for years..My favorite place ever...Anything you order is delicious...😋😋 Can call an order in..ENJOY!“

“I like to go with friends to this place with my warmest recommendations. I visit this place often. This recommendation is always successful. The dishes they serve are delicious and the crew is generous and cooperative. always when we go to this place we pass a delightful evening. warmly recommended.“

“I love this restaurant, the best on Long Island. Their fried rice is never dry, moist, great portions with lots of pork. I have been coming here for over twenty years. They are the best. Fast service, prices are reasonable, portions big.“

“Stayed at near by hotel for 2 weeks and ordered RED APPLE ABOUT 4 times and I’m the fussiest person when it comes to Chinese food and RED APPLE WAS ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS PLUS I ORDERED DIFFERENT ITEMS AND DELICIOUS AND MY WIFE WHO IS THE PICKIEST PERSON EVER WITH FOOD LOVED THE CHINESE FOOD HERE NOT THE MOST UPDATED PLACE BUT FOOD IS FIVE STARS ⭐️ DELICIOUS“

“Ordered take-out here twice. First time I was amazed, portions are huge for a combo meal! Food was hot and packed securely.

My go-to is the egg foo young combo. As mentioned, you’ll get a ton of food. Definitely worth stopping by if you’re on a budget or someone wanting to maximize $/lb.

This spot would be a 5/5 stars if they were twice consistent. As mentioned, the first time I visited it was delicious; especially the Egg foo young sauce/gravy.

Came back last week and it tasted “similar” but not nearly the same. Much to heavy of the minty flavor in the topping. Maybe they have a new cook in training or just over-measured. Regardless, not a big deal.

Food is good overall and I think I’ll give C Garden another shot. If they go back to the flavor first time I visited I’ll give them that 4 -> 5 ⭐️ promotion.

“I only order from them. One time I ordered broccoli and garlic sauce, and the broccoli was a little too tough for me to chew. However, when I called them within 10 minutes, they had another order ready and dropped off to me. It was steamed perfectly soft for me as I have difficulty chewing, I also love the little bags they have for deliveries which are thermal.“

“5-star atmosphere for this take-out only Chinese restaurant because it’s the cleanest I have ever been in! Spotless!!“

“I love their food..I used to go to the old owner's family there and actually ended up teaching the daughter piano! Now the new owner has kept the same high standards, and for me it's vegetarian and seafood friendly. No bad oils. The food tastes so wholesome and delicious. So glad I live nearby.“

“One of the best Chinese food takeout spots around. Food is consistently good it has been owned by the same people for years. Prices have not gone up too much since before Covid and the quality has stayed the same.

They’re sesame chicken is great and chicken and broccoli is another favorite“
