Cantonese Restaurants near Flushing, NY

“TL;DR: Tasty wontons paired with OK broth at affordable prices.*****I traveled with my semi-picky eater Viet mom, and she told me that morning she craved mi hoanh thanh (wonton). My homie, Jando S, recommended this restaurant on the corner of Prince Street and 40th Road.Things to know:*****I. FOOD & DRINK: They clearly layout their menu (comprised of three pages) underneath the glass on each table and side. Most things on their menu range from the $5s to the $9s. Their most basic wonton soup only costs $6.75. and the most expensive one goes up to $9 (Dumpling Trio Lo Mein). Mom had the basic and I dove into their latter.*Dumpling Trio Lo Mein: Consists of three different kinds ((pork) wonton, shrimp, and shrimp and watercress and comes with broth on the side, which you can easily pour back into your bowl if you'd like. My favorite was the shrimp.What I love about their dumplings is the filling-to-dough ratio. Especially their shrimp dumpling. Other restaurants cut up the shrimp into too small of pieces, and at Sifu they leave large chunks of shrimp making for fantastic, tasty bite ratios.NBD, but the only thing I didn't love was their broth. Just tasted a bit under seasoned.I also tried their Chinese broccoli with oyster sauce ($5.50), and even though tasty they overcooked it. Not crunchy at all.They also serve basic tea found at any Chinese restaurant.II. SERVICE: Very fast. We received our food within ten minutes of being seated.III. AMBIANCE & DÉCOR: Not too many tables (maybe ten?). This is the type of place you take a wifey and not a first date, nah mean? I also loved the Chinese brotha sitting next to us who unapologetically played some show on full blast via his cell phone. lol.IV. PRICES: Hella affordable. Cash only.V. OVERALL: If I lived in the neighborhood, I'd eat here on the reg.“

“The food was delicious and the staff was friendly, but when you give the bill, it might be better to tell the customer if the tip is included. If you don't tell them, there might be a misunderstanding later and the customer might feel bad~☺️“

“Awesome food is a great location.“

“If you want to eat the spiciness of Sichuan cuisine and the lightness and freshness of Fujian cuisine, this is the right place! I like all the food in Hongzao here, especially red shrimps and eels, Maoxuewang, pickled fish are also on my foodie menu, and there are others... you can eat it if you like it.“

“Oh man this steamed rice rolls where somebody and chewy and just flavor a bunch of flavor.“

“This is very good Greek food. We have been to Mythos several times with groups, we are mostly from Greece. Paul the owner is a gentleman and his restaurant has not disappointed. Beefteki and Souvlaki are always excellent and chicken was prepared perfectly. Great place for a family dinner.“

“Congees are the best buys (great taste and not expensive) in this well decorated and sleek restaurant. Other dishes may be much more expensive.

I also like dim sums, slightly cheaper than other places around and are very good !“

“My brother and I came here for steamy, wonton noodle soup on a cold evening in Flushing. At a 6:40 pm arrival, the staff was kind enough to take our order despite having to close 20 minutes later. We both ordered the three topping noodle soups: he had egg noodles and beef tendon while I had flat rice noodles and beef stew. We had wontons and fish balls in both of our soups as well.

I’m not embellishing when I say this—the food was spectacular. Broth was clean and comforting, beef was tender and flavorful, the wontons were bigger (and better) than expected, and the fish balls went really well with the soup. You could also spice it up with condiments too. For about $13, Maxi’s offers a superb deal. That’s right. They set the bar high.

Tl;dr: Maxi’s Noodle’s has some of the best wonton noodle soups you can get at an affordable price from a staff with incredible hospitality. With their small yet cozy interior, this place is perfect for cold, fall/winter nights. Go visit ‘em!“

“Food was good. Sweet and sour chicken: chicken was cooked well and seemed like better quality than other places. Sauce flavor was not amazing. Everything else was pretty good and authentic Hong Kong dim sum. Staff look professional and you can tell they work hard. I have to be back on the weekend to try the baked pork buns! “

“We recently went here for a small family wedding reception. There were many dishes including Assorted appetizers platter of jelly fish, crispy pork intestine, fried fish/ribs; King crab cooked in 3 ways (fried, steamed and soup-style), Ginger scallions lobsters, lobster with snow pea leaves, steamed fish, soup, crispy chicken and Fried tofu with beef, mushrooms and snow peas. All the dishes were seasoned well. I personally like more of the assorted appetizers platter (not a fan of the crispy pork intestine because it has a very unique taste to it) and the lobster with snow pea leaves. These two dishes are differently cooked compared to my experience from other restaurants. There were some friendly servers. An unique aspect of this place is there is an inside entrance to Artisan Tea & Coffee shop right next door. So if you want specialty drinks from Artisan but don’t want to walk in the cold then this inside entrance makes it very convenient.“

“Fun casual spot to grab a bite before heading to a Nets or Liberty game! The chicken was my favorite! It was so flavorful and the spicy level was perfect for me. It was just enough to kick but not overwhelming the flavour. The sides are fantastic too.“

“I’m from China and had been long craving authentic good quality Chinese food. When I was in NYC this summer with my parents and boyfriend, we went to try this place out, and that was one of the best meal I had in my life! We tried Beijing duck and skewers as well as some vegetable dishes, everything was so delicious, nicely put together, and other items on the menu also looked authentic and delicious. Will visit this restaurant every time I come to NYC.“

“Looking for a hotpot with a twist? Check out Coco Hotpot ? , the coconut broth has this amazing sweet and savory flavor that hits just right. The Chicken so fresh and tender. Plus, their house-made sauce is chef’s kiss ? Perfect spot if you’re craving something new and delicious! ??

“Incredible Food. Incredibly attentive and professional staff. Instant favorite.“

“Edit: wanted to update my review that the beef brisket with curry sauce (C2) is crazy good!

Food was fine, never tried hot pot rice before this. It’s cool to see authentic Hong Kong style food in this neighborhood. Interior was comfortable and service was good. To be honest the food was kinda forgettable but I would come back to try other dishes“

“Delicious dim sum and pan fried flounder!“

“Came here and realized they offered dim sum for lunch service, so this was a must try place in addition to the majority of these restaurants being located in downtown Flushing. We ordered several dim sum dishes and enjoyed them all. Also ordered their beef and bitter melon lunch special with rice and a side of soup. Good sized beef slices and came out piping hot.“

“LOVE LOVE LOVE OLLIE’s !! The food is always consistently great!! #LoveChineseFood Super friendly staff!!!“

“Casual vegan spot owned by a mom and pop. With daily lunch specials and a full menu of food choices, every time I come, it's like I'm finding something new to try. Dim sum, dumplings and seitan skewers are highlights. My favorite dishes are the full entrees such as vegan duck, Vegan black sesame beef and any stir fry with baby bok choy. The flavors, cooking methods and sauces are familiar -- like a Cantonese restaurant. Must try the pumpkin soup!“

“Great place for dim sum. The staff was incredibly friendly. Dim sum was good some dishes were great and one or two I've had better but I'd like to come back to see if it was just an off day for those specific items. Still a good deal for the price.“

“If you like stone bowl rice or want to try Cantonese cuisine, I highly recommend this place. My friends and I all ordered different dishes, and I particularly liked the pork belly my friend chose more than the Cantonese sausage I got. I def plan to return in the future to explore more of the stone bowl rice options. The prices are very reasonable, making it a great value overall.“

“The reviews on Google are good, so we decided to give it a try. Starting from the Tom Yum Goong soup, to the crispy shrimp balls, to the crispy shell curry chicken, they all taste good. Their medium spicy is slightly spicy. The wait for the braised pork rice was a bit long. The braised pork is salty and suitable for rice. Because the pork tastes strong, a classmate and I don't like it very much. So I mixed the corn with the braised pork sauce and served it with curry chicken. The service in the store is relatively timely, and it can be seen that it is very experienced. You can tell from the menu. The store has a rich menu and has 8 tables. It is a cozy shop. We ate at noon on non-weekends, so we didn't have to wait for a table. The overall feeling is OK.“

“The experience at this place was wonderful this is because my sister and I had ordered 2 wonton noodle soups. The soups taste wonderful and the service is fast. The atmosphere can be noisy during meal times.

Wheelchair accessibility: This store is wheelchair accessible because it is located on street level.“

“The food is very good! The service is also good, it would be nice if there was an MTV installed in the room.

Vegetarian options: Stir-fried lotus root slices, stir-fried yam, and braised tofu in a pot!

Parking: Just next door to the restaurant

Kid-friendliness: Suitable for children and the elderly

Wheelchair accessibility: There is an elevator“

“First of all, Jesse deserves a raise. She’s incredible and has served me, my partner, my mother, father, and friend. This is to Jing Lee management - give her that promotion!!!

Secondly, the food is DELICIOUS. It’s rare that multiple people in my life agree on how tasty the food is. The cumin lamb is spicy and covered in distinct, flavorful spices. The crunch of the seasons green beans and the spicy aftertaste is ?.“

“TLDR: Looking for a solid HK style spot, Sweet Wonton is a good choice. Definitely get the house special rice noodle stir-fry, personally I like switching it to the thinner rice noodles. Tasty wonton/dumplings too!

Little Neck has pretty solid Cantonese food now, Sweet Wonton on Northern is a popular spot for good reason. Stick to the staples but the wonton soup in the bone broth is tasty. It's got that rich almost tonkotsu like creaminess but with the shrimpy flavor that you come to expect from a HK wonton or dumpling soup.

The house special sesame stir-fried rice noodles is so good. Salted fish, dried squid, chives - ask to switch to the thinner rice noodles which I think tastes better. The textures are good, lots of flavor and tremendous wok-hei.“

“Authentic Cantonese BBQ with rich, traditional flavors. The roast duck is my favorite—perfectly roasted to achieve crispy skin while keeping the meat tender and juicy. The seasoning is just right, balancing savory and slightly sweet notes, just like the best roast duck you’d find in Hong Kong.“

“Authentic Cantonese cuisine. I was brought up in Guangzhou and these dishes here are the same delicious as the ones I had back in Guangzhou.“

“I have to eat a meat free meal so I ordered the tofu with mixed vegetables. I requested that the tofu be steamed and come with a brown sauce on the side, for dipping purposes. The vegetables have little taste, but the tasty sauce made up for that. It comes with a choice of white or brown rice.“

“A fantastic spot for authentic Cantonese cuisine in Queens! We tried the fried noodles, lobster, and sautéed vegetables — all were fresh and flavorful. The noodles had a perfect wok-fried aroma just like in Asia. We'll be coming back again.“

“So This Is One Of My Absolute Favorite Seafood Restaurants In Flushing

If Interested They Have Live Fish And Seafood In Tanks Where You Can Choose What You Want ?

Restaurant: King Crab House

Address: 135-11 40th Rd, Queens, NY 11354

We Had The Lobster In Ginger, Garlic And Scallion Sauce...Served With White Rice And A Soup

So Right Of The Bat This Is NOT Your Typical Seafood In That Sauce....It's A Lighter Version...This Restaurant Wants You To Actually Taste The Seafood

I Did Ask For It To Be A Bit Spicy And With Extra Ginger, Scallions And My Addition Was A Touch More Oyster Sauce...That's How I Order It Here And They Accommodate Without Issue ?

JUST A FYI The Soup Is A Clear Broth That Taste Like Chicken BUT Does Have Pork So If You Don't Consume That Then Make Sure And Let Them Know Your Restrictions

This Dish Is A Solid 8.7-9 Out Of 10

The Place Is Really Beautifully Designed, Clean, Knowledgeable Staff And Delicious Dishes

This Meal Is $20 Plus Tax Which Served Both Of Us And We Were Filled....(About $11 PP)

I Did Notice They Have A Larger Lunch Menu Selection That Is $13.95 I Believe

After The Meal We Walked Around And Grabbed A Bunch Of Fresh Fruit....Mangoes, Tangerines And Lychee

All Good Stuff And Really Reasonable....

Definitely Worth A Visit If In The Neighborhood....Thx Chef ?“

“Hunan Kitchen on Lexington Avenue offers an exceptional dining experience. The seating arrangement is excellent, ensuring comfort during your meal. The staff goes above and beyond, displaying friendliness and thoughtfulness throughout your visit. Today, I savored their sliced fish paired with white rice and sweet and sour soup from the lunch menu—a delightful combination of flavors. The dishes are consistently served piping hot and beautifully plated, adding to the overall enjoyment. On occasion, I indulge in combining two lunch specials, finding the ox tongue particularly delicious and refreshing when served cold. Overall, Hunan Kitchen is truly amazing, delivering outstanding cuisine alongside top-notch service, making it a must-visit destination for any food enthusiast.“

“The food is good and price is reasonable. They have the typical Chinese food dishes and some that are not as common at other restaurants. The only thing is they're not always consistent but when it's good, it's good.

My favorite dishes:
Olive with string beans, salty egg pumpkin (must get this), fried intestine (sometimes they over fry this), fish two ways (made in soup with tofu and veggies and then a separate dish where the meat is filet and there is no bone... delicious. This dish is $80), walnut shrimp (typical dish), Peking pork (typical dish).

Parking: They have a small parking lot in the back with a few assigned spaces.“

“Chinese food restaurant. Order in, or take out. There is so much to choose from on the menu. I love the Peking duck. There are parking meters in the area. No restroom available.

Vegetarian options: There are certain foods on the menu for the vegetarians. The place is very small. They do cash app.“

“The parking for this restaurant is pretty easy. Directly outside is meter and one block away it's residential.The food portion was great and the roasted beef noodle has plenty of big chunks of meat. And the meats are juicy and succulent.The veggies have soul, it's delicious with hint of garlic, not too much not too little bit of salt.The pricing is pretty decent too.

Parking: The parking for this restaurant is pretty easy. Directly outside is meter and one block away it's residential.“

“This is my newest favorite in the wonton restaurant in New York. It is a tiny place, but the free tea is hot. I had the "trio" wonton with noodles, with additional vegetables, which are tender baby yuchoy. The trio wonton were all very good, but I can't say I could distinguish among the three types. All had crunchy shrimp, one said had watercress, although I couldn't figure which. The added vegetables, for an extra $2, was well worth it. The vegetable portion was large enough to merit a second bowl. It was a bargain at $12.50. I liked it so much that I ordered the same a few days later. The 3rd time I visited, I ordered wonton with stewed beef and with added vegetable. Again, it was very good, but the vegetable portion was significantly reduced, but the beef portion was large (very large for someone who rarely eats meat). I ordered this dish twice also.“

“Delicious Dim Sum. Fantastic traditional Chinese tasting assortments.“

“Underrated seafood restaurant! Everything was really fresh and very tasty, servers were always ready to change your plates , we had king crab that was cooked in 3 ways, golden sand, steamed and one with noodle ….really to die for…definitely will come back. Thanks for the experience!“

“I admire this spot! They offer superb meals, their menu is large, The chef in that place is a specialist, I like a lot eating all their dishes. The food is consistently of high qualtity, the attitude towards the guests is friendly. I frequently visit this restaurant and I was never discontended. I recommend this place.“
