Food was better than average. The lettuce wrap appetizer was underwhelming. We ordered the steamed sea bass. Though it was fresh and tasty, it was not worth $40 for one small steamed fish. Kathy the owner stops to speak with only certain customers and walked past our table several times without a glance in our direction. Why?

Pearl East is a great place to go for good chinese cuisine. Food is always consistent. Their sushi is good too. The Pink lady roll is awesome. Cocktails are delicious. The Mango martini is my favorite. If you're in Great Neck, NY definitely a must try. Be sure to make reservations if you're going on the weekend. It's always packed. During the week, you are able to get a table quickly. Service on the weekends is a bit slow, but the food makes up for it.

The food at the Pearl was very good, but the service was horrible. We're an African-American family and we waited over ten minutes to see who will be serving our table and the servers will just glance at our table and not approach us. I approach a waiter about the lack of service and immediately he had a certain attitude towards us. Don't go to this establishment!

Slow service Just ok food. Albert's in Huntington blows this place away as far as service and quality and freshness of food. Our apps were ribs, and 2 different dim sum. 3 of my 5 ribs were sitting all day - dry and overcooked - the other two were just fair. Dim Sum were good and basic - nothing special - and supposedly they are know for dim sum. We won't be back.

Pearl East has incredible food, amazing professional service, and all your Chinese favorites, but made with great care and quality. It's the Chinese cuisine you remember as a kid and always want. In addition Celiacs can enjoy a gluten free meal! They offer both!!

I hate to give a poor review for a restaurant that does provide excellent food and service. However, a restaurant that participates in Open Table reservations/points, should be able to know how to redeem reward points. Especially when the customer comes in with a hard copy / information of that $40 reward. I do hope Pearl East learns how to do this. Thank You.

Pearl East has got to be the best Asian food on all of Long Island and Queens. If it's not on the menu they will figure out how to please you. The gentleman making sushi is exceptional. As a diabetic I know that I can eat safely cause several dishes can be made with no sugar. Great place

Best Chinese food anywhere always consistent . Kathy the owner makes u feel like you're eating in her home . Great cocktails and the sushi is the best on Long Island.

Food was ok, average for Chinese in the area. Service was fine. Pear East does not have its own website, so 3rd party pictures of menus were extremely outdated.

I've been going to pearls for years, it's simply the best Chinese food. I travel from Mt Sinai to Manhasset because it's so good. I introduced two of my friends to the pearls experience and they loved the food, going to bring their families.
I have dined at Pearl East for over 25 years. Every meal has always been amazing. The food and service is always first rate. If you haven't tried Pearl East, you don't know what you are missing.

The food was fabulous, but we had a new waiter who is still learning to serve and it showed.

Pearls is the best chinese in the area, with special kudos for their attention to gluten free and vegetarian options.

Been going there for many many years now and find it to be one of the very few restaurants that is always excellent and more importantly, always consistent. Thumbs up to Cathy the owner for being so professional.

Food and services were excellent. Very crowded and for some reason, they did not open the back room.
