Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Not ideal - this is a takeout counter with minimal seating. Better for grabbing food and heading to nearby Kissena Park for a casual picnic date instead.
Can I get a table without a reservation? No reservations needed or taken. Limited counter seating available first-come, but most customers order takeout.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes - quick service means no restless waiting, familiar dishes like lo mein and fried rice, and combo plates let kids mix and match. Budget prices mean feeding the whole family won't break the bank.
Best For
Better for: Consistent weeknight takeout when you want reliable Chinese without the Flushing crowds - faster, cheaper, and closer for Murray Hill locals than Main Street options
Skip if: You want authentic regional specialties or a sit-down dining experience - head to Flushing proper for destination-worthy Chinese
