From Google Maps reviews.
Let's be totally for real. You don't go to a "cheap" Chinese take-out for atmosphere. You come to get more bang for your buck with a side order of MSG. And this place scratches the itch. The wonton egg drop soup had just the right amount of viscosity, the meat filling in the dumplings had a pleasantly warm dose of pepper, and it was still piping hot after carrying it a few blocks in the chill of the night air. It was a warming, comforting, and filling in all the ways I needed it to be at under $
3/26/25 first time here. My coworker gets food here a lot. So i decided to go with him and get some for our dinner break. I got the chicken lomein special with a soda for $11. It was good and comes with rice! Yeah i know, strange that a noodle dish comes with rice... So brown it was, good rice too! The noodles were good and i would get them again. A great deal for a NYC to-go meal. I will be back
This place is good. The atmosphere inside is harsh, but the employees are kind and the food (gen tsos) was fresh, hot, large, and affordable. Can’t ask for much more for $11.
