“first time eating here, and it really was good.“

“Great local Chinese restaurant with large portions and great prices, especially lunch specials. The owners and staff are very friendly, and service is quick, even if you decide to order at the place and take out. Love their brown and garlic sauce, which I compare regularly amongst local Chinese places. Food is always hot and the place is very clean, though I do wish that they had some sit down tables. Will continue to visit.

“Our group of nine had an exceptional dining experience the other night. We started with appetizers, vegetable dumplings, spring rolls and the scallion pancakes were a standout—simply amazing. I enjoyed the General Tso’s chicken, which was delicious! The menu also catered to the vegetarians and vegans in our group, offering great options for everyone. The service was impeccable, the atmosphere delightful, and the food outstanding. We will definitely be back!“

“Ordered lunch today which was delivered by Grubhub. These folks get good reviews and I can see why. The food tasted healthy, simple and not greasy. The Wonton Soup was flavorful and the wontons were tasty with just the right amount of meat. The Mei Fun was delightfully light and flavorful. There was an adequate amount of meat in all dishes. prices were fair and delivery was prompt. How How has moved to the top of my Long Island delivery choices!“

“We have been coming to this restaurant for quite some time now. Oftentimes we order for delivery and the food comes to us in a timely fashion. They keep the busy small eat in order area and kitchen clean. They have many choices, so our mixed diets of regular and vegan have delicious items to choose from their menu.

Vegetarian options: There are vegetable choices, like broccoli and mixed veggies for example. There are various types of tofu dishes too.“

“There were two cute pillows thoughtfully placed on the chair, and the restaurant was very clean. It is highly recommended for those who like sweet food to try the tomato fat beef scrambled eggs! ! ! Highly recommended by this Shanghainese! ! ! Fellow Northeasterners said that the pickled cabbage and white meat are particularly authentic. The warm service from the landlady really makes me feel like I have returned to China... I really love Jude Building???“

“That food is delicious inexpensive and filling… staff is amazing and place is clean“

“Good Chinese food is really really hard to find. Picked this place on a whim based on reviews. Ordered shrimp with lobster sauce, shrimps were cleaned and cooked perfectly. Veggie lomein, steamed veggie dumplings, fried baby shrimp, roast pork chow mei fun, wonton soup, and a free pt of pork fried rice (that I didn't even have to ask for). Everything was cooked well and tasted great. Will be back.“

“This is hands down the best soup dumpling place I’ve ever been to. I lived in Manhattan for 20 years and never experienced such authenticity as Red Tiger Their crabmeat and pork soup dumplings are the best thing on the menu. However, they have so many different ones to try. Everytime we come here we always try a new one.
Red tiger FTW!!!“

“I had the lunch menu of pork fried rice, pork egg roll and boneless ribs. Everything was good but the pork ribs. They were very dry. I could hardly cut them and very dry. I would not order them again. The people seem friendly enough.“

“Easy 5 stars. I've been going here for years. Everything I get, I love. Especially the fried dumplings and sweet and sour chicken. Their delivery is fast and easy too.

Parking: There's always a lot of spaces and you can park away from other cars if you want to.“

“Got take out for lunch and it was delicious! The pork fried rice is exactly how fried rice should be! It’s not yellow rice. It’s actually real, authentic fried rice. We also had General Tso’s chicken and it was really tasty, white meat and a delicious sauce with a little kick. Will dine in next time!“

“great food and Mai Tai 👌 😋“

“This is by far the best Chinese restaurant around the island. Not only the food is amazing but the service is outstanding. They always answer the phone with great energy and never give attitude or rush you off the phone. The portions are incredible. The taste is immaculate. The wonton soup comes with like 5 or 6 wontons in it and with flavor and always delicious. The sweet and sour sauce is made fresh in house and is completely edible. The pineapples they give as a complimentary dish are to die for. I can't make this up. Try this spot and forget what the rest said. This is my favorite and only spot I come to from now on. Have been here atleast 6x in the past year so this place rocks. Don't believe me. Let the pictures do it some justice then come give it a try. This place will not disappoint.“

“good food, good service, guy behind counter very polite, egg rolls nice and crispy,been going here long time“

“We’ve recently discovered this restaurant. The General Tso’s shrimp was a bit pricey but excellent. The shrimp in black bean sauce and vegetable noodles were not good. Also it’s best to go there during daylight hours. The strip mall is totally abandoned and eerie at night. I would recommend this restaurant. The service was also excellent.“

“Although a little far away at Centereach, this place is definitely worth visiting for their amazing food. They do have a long menu and plenty of options to select from. Tried their kung pao chicken and fish fillet in spicy sauce. Don't judge this place for the empty tables as most people I saw were doing takeaways.Overall, the experience was great and can't wait to come back!“

“Excellent food! We will be regulars.“

“Classic, reminds me of my younger years on Long Island. Nicely tasty and straightforward. Very accommodative of special dietary needs - no soy sauce for me, no sesame oil for another in our party. I had the cabbage and pork soup - for two and ate it all with gusto! I also had Singapore noodles, which I like very much and here it was presented with good curry taste but not hot (which I enjoy but most others in my party do not). They use trolleys to serve and clear, so there is always a bustle and rumble which is distracting.“

“We’ve been going to Oriental Kitchen for the last 1.5 years and I just have to say they really are the best. We’ve tried so many of the local spots and officially decided we have to stick with this one. The meat and vegetables seem so much fresher than other places. The food isn’t greasy the way some of the local spots are. We never feel like we ate a heavy greasy meal after compared to what we’ve experienced elsewhere. It just seems like cleaner cooking, I don’t know how to describe it.

The staff is so nice. I bring my toddlers in with me and the staff is so sweet and chatty with them. All smiles! Just so pleasant.

BTW get the fried wantons—they’re so good here!“

“Top notch sushi, the best prices I have seen for the quality. I’ve been ordering from Kira Sushi since about 2021, their quality has been consistent and their menu prices haven’t raised drastically like everything else does.“

“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!“

“This place is solid. The food is excellent all the time regardless of take-out, delivery, or dine in. Staff is professional and friendly and they always get the order exactly right. We've tried other places and they just don't compare!“

“I'm giving 5 stars across the board because I absolutely love this place. Best in the area. There are a couple of tables but it seems it is mostly taken out. I have to recommend the fried wontons. They are different from every other place. Very little dough and delicious insides. Always get a bunch because they are the first to go. Crowd favorite.“

“I order crab rangoon, chicken dumplings and shrimp with black bean sauce. Everything is delicious!! Im allergic to pork. So I was so happy to see a chicken dumpling and it has great flavor. Crab rangoon taste homemade. The shrimp with black bean sauce came with nice size shrimp. Really glad to find this place!!“

“Good food, good service.!“

“This is the best Chinese food I've had in a while! Ordered on my way home from work, picked it up hot and fresh! Fried wontons were crispy and delicious, chicken and broccoli was tasty and the roast pork fried rice hit the spot. The price was right, plenty of food for left overs. The service was with a smile as well. I will order again and again from this place, grabbed a menu on my way out so I can try more of their delicious fare. Would recommend this place for authentic Chinese food made fresh and delicious!“

“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“

“It’s really hard to find a decent Chinese takeout. For some reason, take-out Chinese food is not as good as it was 20 years ago. I find a lot of Chinese food inedible.That said, Red Apple is a good find. I recently ordered the wonton soup, egg roll, shrimp roll. I also ordered the honey chicken with fried rice and vegetable Lo Mein. My husband & I really enjoyed the food. It was tasty & flavorful. So if you’re in the mood for good Chinese food, definitely give this place a try.“

“I tried many different Chinese take-out restaurants in the area when I moved here 2 years ago. I was really disappointed by the quality until I ordered from New Kings. I'm surprised they don't have a higher rating. The food is consistently good. I just wish they had a few more things on their menu like duck and wontons with shrimp.“

“The food is excellent and no mistakes! This is really a take out operation. There are two tables available to sit and eat but no wait service. The restaurant is always busy which goes to prove the quality of the food. The staff is friendly and accommodating.“

“My favorite Chinese takeout place. Their servings are generous and everything tastes fresh. Meat is trimmed well so even the pork ribs have minimal fat. They also have online ordering so I don't have to talk to anyone on the phone and my boyfriend/family usually answers the door so I don't have to engage with any human being I don't know at any point!NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH PANDA EXPRESS. This place is much better in my opinion.“

“Wild rice is one of those local Chinese restaurants where everybody in the neighborhood loves it and they think it's the best Chinese food in the world in reality it's your standard American Chinese food a little bit above average I would say. In that area there really aren't any better places“

“I brought my Mom here for a sit-down lunch. This is awesome classic chinese food. The sesame chicken is awesome and has a crispyness to it. The brocoli in brown sauce is perfect. Mom loved the egg drop soup, she's a chinese food connoisseur and she said it was the best she's ever had. Thank you!“

“Good traditional breakfast items snd delicious entrees and dumplings. The flavors are authentic and the ingredients are high quality“

“We moved to the area a year and a half ago an were in search of a good Chinese food restaurant. We can from a town with very good food around so it was a challenge. After a few tries, we settled with yummy kitchen. Food is good and consistent every time we order. My husband is Chinese descendant so he’s a tough one to please and they didn’t disappoint!Prices are a little high and service isn’t the greatest but food is good!“

“Gave it 5 stars cause this owner use to be in patchogue and it was best chinese food on Long Island but she left during COVID and now I heard she’s in centereach and I haven’t had good chinese food since she left but will be going there this week to centereach even though it’s 12 miles away because her food is what dreams are made of! 5 ⭐️s“

“Best Chinese Food! I’ve been coming back and have tried many other places from Port Jeff-Patchogue. This one is by far my favorite. They are family run & They listen to your requests. They don’t skimp you on sauce or food. Their boneless spareribs are AMAZING. Chicken and Broccoli, has EDIBLE chicken that won’t gross you out. Their sesame chicken delicious and it’s not orange:). Soup broth is yummy and flavorful ! And their egg rolls aren’t filled with random , uncooked veggies. Everything is cooked thoroughly and great! Also they offer 5% off for cash payments which always feels good. I moved out of Selden but I still come back to grab some of this food! #YUM“

“This restaurant is excellent! The interior design is beautiful and the food is made quickly. I ordered egg drop soup and fried dumplings. The egg drop soup had perfect consistency. The staff is very friendly as well. I will definitely come back in the future.“

“I moved to this area almost 5 years ago and was always on the hunt for decent Chinese food. I don't know what took so long to try Wing wah out but glad I did. The flavor of the general tsos chicken is really good and they let me substitute more broccoli in the combo instead of receiving the egg roll. The wonton soup is really good too. A lot of places make it too salty but theirs is very good . My husband enjoys the dishes he gets too. We will be sticking to wing wah for Chinese takeout nights“

“I moved to this area about 11 yrs ago, its been very hard to find your basic staples go to like Pizza, Bagels and Chinese. Ive been using 2 other local Chinese food places for the last 11 yrs. Good, but was never something I would write a review about. My only complaint is that I did not try this place sooner! By far, the best in this area. Everything you hear in the reviews is correct. The shrimp toast is fantastic and their boneless spare ribs were delicious and very tender. I was very pleasantly surprised about how good it was. I had it delivered and it came faster than the ETA provided. This is be my new go to place from this point on.“

“I grew up going there. I always liked it. I would get the chicken and broccoli with white sauce, white rice. I would get wonton soup and shrimp roll. It's been there over 30 years. I don't know if it's new owners, have not ate there in awhile. I think it's been a few years. I have to back and try again. It's a take place, but they have a few tables. I called I wanted delivery which they don't do. I understand the roads are crazy, safety, they are busy cooking. They have I think GrubHub but I don't have any if those delivery apps. Anyway delivery can get expensive fuel charge, etc. Some places don't charge delivery fees, but your still tipping. Anyway they have good lunch specials. If they have cheese wontons I would try. I would hope they would be bid and filled with alot of cheese. Enjoy.“

“Always go here for my local takeout. They also make the food super quick and it’s always hot when I pick it up. I think their fried rice is a hidden gem. Overall great quality food and not too expensive compared to other places. Plenty of food for the money.“

“It's literally the best Chinese food takeout for miles. Always freshest ingredients, cooked to perfection, on time both pick up and when delivered. I go miles out of my way to get my food here and have had many events catered by them. Bravo!!!“

“Only one visit so far so I will adjust if need be. Fried rice was top tier for the area. So was the sesame chicken and the lo mein. The wonton soup was pretty standard but the wonton meat was really good. I think it was ginger in there that made them stand out. My only complaint was the large boneless spareribs at 18$ were very fatty. Could have been the batch so I won’t hold that against them unless it happens again.“

“Noodlicious! To make yours vegan just ask for the "vegetable broth & no egg" ? Broccoli & bok choy tasted fresh and mixed with noodles = super yummy! This meal is 5 stars, but had to pick 4 on Happy Cow because it isn't an all vegan restaurant @alongislandvegan #alongislandvegan Updated from previous review on 2024-07-18“

“We have been patronizing this place for over a decade. May and her family run a great operation! We watched her daughter grow into a bright young lady and with a bit more experience, she will be running that place as gracefully as her mother. I highly recommend the spareribs! Boneless or not, they are always juicy and delicious!“

“I picked up my food. I believe I got a free soda that day too. One time my card was hacked and I didn’t know, I called back to tell them to forget it and they gave me my food without me paying bc I ordered so much. Told me pay them back next time. I payed back the next time I ordered. I’ve never had a problem with the lady. And love the delivery drivers. Very nice all of them.“

“It is a Chinese restaurant specializing in delivery and takeout. The prices are relatively cheap, the food tastes good and the portions are generous. Fried rice, General Tso chicken, and Lo Mein, fried noodles, are also delicious. Fried rice and noodles made in a wok have a more savory taste due to the added fire flavor.“

“Food was excellent We had take out“
