Wow! This was very good Chinese food! I've driven passed this spot so many times and finally stopped in for lunch today. I had the shrimp and broccoli lunch special with pork fried rice and an egg roll. It had so much flavor and it was delicious! The egg roll was crispy and not greasy at all. This is definitely my new go-to Chinese spot in Patchogue. read more

Good decent traditional Chinese food. Pan fried wontons and homemade egg rolls top the list! Orange Chicken and Shrimp with eggplant and garlic sauce were excellent! read more

Haven't been there for 10 years and the food is still the best in Suffolk County to me and I've eaten in a lot of Chinese restaurants and let me tell you quality is always good. Sucks that everything pricewise keeps going up but All-Star great and Patchogue Village. read more

Oh boy. Here goes... ordered from here via Uber Eats today and wow. I can't even remember the last time I had such terrible Chinese food. Yikes. 1. Chicken lo mein was basically tasteless. Super bland. 2. Same goes for the pork egg rolls. Zero flavor. 3. Steamed dumplings ended up in the garbage. The way they tasted, smelled and looked inside were NOTHING like I've ever had before and not in a good way. The meat inside tasted overcooked and like it was sitting in soy sauce for days. The color of the meat was literally BLACK! Came with a small side of plain soy sauce instead of the typical dumpling sauce you receive at all other Chinese restaurants. Eww. 4. Cheese wontons were burnt and dry as hell. Half of those ended up in the garbage as well. Came with a side of duck sauce instead of the sweet orange sauce it's supposed to come with. 5. The chicken and broccoli was a disaster. Super oily, wilted old broccoli and rubbery chicken. The white rice it came with was average at least. Smh. What did I just eat and waste my hard earned money on?!?! I'm literally mad at myself for wasting money at this place. The poor Uber Eats delivery driver even told me she called the restaurant for directions because it was hard to find and she got a nasty attitude from the guy that answered. NEVER EVER AGAIN!! read more

This is a weird little restaurant. They have this great space that they could really turn into something but they do nothing with it. It seems like they only have 1 guy working, but he is back behind his partitions so they seem to be doing a good job with the pandemic. The food here is pretty good. There is much better Chinese that's a short drive away but the food they make here is tasty. I think it's a little greasy but it's cheap Chinese. There are much worse places. This is a good place to go if you just need that quick Chinese fix and you don't feel like leaving downtown Patchogue. I just had beef lo mein and it cured my hangover. I wish they had a better drink selection too. But it's really such a weird little spot. Giant dining room with nothing going on. Weird little segregated kitchen area. It seems like it's a 1 man operation too. I wish this place would take advantage of what it has, because they make decent food and could easily be a 5 star place if they used their space better. read more

My favorite Chinese food place since I was younger . My mom and I would have food here on a rainy Sunday lazy day . I don't like other Chinese food but I absolutely LOVE this place . read more

I have been going here for 20+ years. I have always been satisfied. Looking at the last couple reviews. I would have to disagree. With everything that has happened this past year with the pandemic and people not coming back to work. Things have been hard on everybody. Even this restaurant. I have called in for take out, had food delivered and eaten in many times in the past. And I have never had a bad experience. read more

wrong prices on menu. rude owners. owner will shout at you for asking the correct price!! food is disgusting.

The food is always so fresh and delicous-been going here for years-excellent attitude and they will alter any way you like-they are so far above all the others-we are so lucky to have them in our area--thank you read more

The white meat sesame chicken was burnt and the chicken was too tough to eat. I called the restaurant for any type of accommodation and they said they wouldn't do anything to accommodate me. I wouldn't recommend this restaurant to anyone because of the burnt food and the horrible customer service. read more

Best Meal Chinese Food - White Meat Sesame Chicken - White Meat - Chinese Near Me - Patchogue, New York

One of the best places on LI for Chinese. Fresh, undrugged food prepared by like real chefs, even though its not a five start sit down spot this place has the best meals around, its real. Only kinda annoying thing is their delivery guy will actually complain if he feels his tip wasn't enough, which is unacceptable Other than that, excellent. read more

I decided to eat Chinese food for dinner with my four year old, never would have though I would find a little piece of metal in it. This is disgraceful and disgusting. Should have never bought it in the first place. Thankfully me and my son didn't get hurt or got sick from this. I'll never buy food here again read more

Best Meal Chinese Food - This is what I get for buying Chinese food. Imagine if my four year old could have eaten that. Never again - Chinese Near Me - Patchogue, New York

We placed a large order for our school today 20 combo lunches. It couldn't have gone any better. They delivered it on time. They labeled each of the containers with the students name for us. They gave us plates, forks, spoons, sauces without us asking for them. I called the night before to alert them to the large order. They were really nice on the phone. The food was great. No one had any complaints and it arrived piping hot. Thank you for making it smooth for our students. Lots of full stomachs read more

Horrible food and service. Ordered pork and got chicken. Asked for spicy, food was bland. I was told 30-40 mins for delivery and waited 1hr20mins. Asked for chopsticks and didn't get those either. One of my worst Chinese food experiences to date. I'll never order from Best Meal Chinese Food ever again. Should rename to Worst meal Chinese food. read more

Nothing fancy to be sure but excellent food and fast service. Food is fresh and tasty!

They have excellent food! I wish they would fix up the place now that Patchogue has made it on the map. To be able to sit in a nice restaurant would make the dining experience so much better, plus their business would flourish I am sure. I noticed a few negative reviews. I have never had a problem with the person on the phone being rude. IF that ever happens to me, they will lose me as a customer. But so far, so good. Been getting take-out from them for a few years' now. read more

Oh Best Meal, you are so good at hitting the spot that all other Chinese menus go straight into the trash! Since moving to Patchogue two years we have gone with another Chinese food place maybe once tops if at all. I live fairly close so sometimes we go with takeout, other times we are lazy and go with delivery. In all the countless times we have gotten delivery there was only one time that our order took an obscenly long time to get here (over 45 minutes) but we like them so much we remained undettered. Otherwise, the food is delivered pretty quick (within 20-25 minutes) or is ready when we get there. For me Chinese food takeout is just that. Its good, but I don't know if there is any appreciable difference in taste from one place to the next. The food is consistently good and they have never messed up an order even with special requests. My boyfriend loves the General Tso's chicken combination. I am a fan of the broccoli with garlic sauce, vegetable chow mein, and steamed vegetable dumplings. Their spring rolls are also tasty. Comparably priced to other places. read more

Great food for the price; good service as well. My favorites include their General Tso's chicken and their beef chow fun. Really great value and I definitely recommend! read more

Honestly I love this place the food there is outstanding finally a place where I can enjoy the food very quite place the workers are very patient when they take the orders and I love the lunch specials very cheap and delicious I grew up on this very restaurant and I'm so glad I live near the restaurant because I can walk by foot I hope you guys have the same opinion as me read more

Will never order from them again. My receipt said $50.00 including a $10 tip, which I didn't approve and when I got my credit card statement, I was charged $70! read more

It was an exceptionally cold day, so I just wanted to get some soup. I work in the area, so I called ahead and placed my order over the phone. I get to the restaurant to pick up my order, and the owner was being very friendly, and making small talk. The hot and sour soup was absolutely delicious, and still piping hot by the time i got back to the office. I will be back read more

Number 1 Chinese food in Patchogue staff very friendly and food is very good I recommend this very highly

Been into Shrimp & Broccoli, Beef Lo Mein, Egg Drop Wonton Soup lately. Good Stuff.

If I could give less stars than this I would. I placed an order via grubhub at 6pm on 11/8/16. After waiting over an hour to receive my order, I called the Chinese restaurant to inquire about my food. I was treated with such disrespect, hung up on twice, and was told if I don't feel like waiting "oh well" and that by calling about my order being late I was making someone else's order run late as well. When I replied that I wasn't concerned about other people's orders, I was told "well that's because you only care about yourself". I was treated terribly, and hung up on. My husband called to inquire again about our food when it rounded the 45 minute mark and the woman who answered the phone could be heard telling someone else "the asshole from (our address) is calling again what should I tell them this time?" My children were present and heard this terrible language, made all the worse that they were waiting to have family dinner. I am disgusted that this kind of treatment is what is provided through your service, and am now trying to come up with a meal for my family without knowledge of if our Chinese food will ever actually arrive. UPDATE: our food showed up one hour and 42 minutes after ordering and when we explained to the delivery man the issue, he left with the food when we asked if he would discount our price. Sent from my iPhone read more

No words for what I just got delivered. Cheese wontons which were basically a paste inside they were so over done.. broccoli in garlic sauce; the broccoli was literally soggy as if the order was received a day ago. .. noodle soup literally had 10 noodles. Veggie Lo mein was not terrible. read more

I love this place. It's food is great and the delivery is very quick.

I love this place. The food is always fresh. If they ever make a mistake they fix it asap. We order once a week from them. I have tried every Chinese restaurant in patchogue however this place is the best. Delivery is always fast 30 mins or so. I would definitely recommend it to everyone. read more

Great egg rolls good wonton soup but they could be made a bit tighter ... they don't fall apart but seem a little loose compared to the other places in the immediate area they are the best on the block read more

Really good Chinese food. Generous people and pretty good prices! The lo mien is juicy and sautéed string beans have great sauce and nearly perfectly cooked. read more

Definitely not a place I care to go again, I asked for egg rolls and that was complicated for them. Kind of sketchy inside, food was eh

Good food. If error in order its never their fault. But still fast del. And good food

The rule of - if you have to inform someone of your quality it might not be the best definitely applies here. Their online ordering is nice but the food is sub par at best. This is Long Island; there are fantastic Chinese places on every corner. I'd advise anyone to keep driving. read more

food is good , my favorite takeout food has to be half chicken with pork fried rice! just please next time send forks and napkins thats my only concern (: read more

Best Chinese food place on the island! They know my order when I walk in I'm there so much lol pork Lo Mein no vegetable! I mostly eat there, sometimes take Out! A++ read more

Gross food! It's definitely a walk in and out kind of place. Not going there again. Meat is dry, rice was NOT freshly cooked - HORRIBLE!

I like Best meal, I think its a really consistently good hole in the wall chinese restaurant. The people are nice and Ive really enjoyed everything Ive had from there. Obviously its not the best Chinese food Ive ever eaten but for what it is I think its really yummy. read more

If you want Chinese in the center of Patchogue, this is the place to go. For people used to better quality restaurants in the city Best Meal might be a disappointment. But if you are comparing to nearby joints then Best is the best! For vegetarians and vegans, don't be afraid to ask for what you want -- they will adjust their menu items if you want something without meat. read more

I have been ordering from this place for 5 years and about 2 to 3 times a month (as a guide). Most times I have delivery and it is solid as I don't live next door but they tell me upfront it takes 45 minutes. The food is solid and my family has tried about everything on the menu. I have tried others in the area but keep coming back here as when it is all said and done they are very good. I have tried other places as a guide to see if there is a better place or something "different" but it is what it is. They make a very good house special soup and the chicken fried rice is excellent as well. I have never ate there but then again outside of a real restaurant, why would you? So the bottom line?..if your looking for very good, solid take out food they are many worse options! read more

Kind of a hit or miss with this place. Used to love the food all the time but sometimes it's great and sometimes its typical take out.

when they named it best meal they nailed it on the head. i eat out ev,day breakfast,lunch, and dinner. so i know my food places.. best meal is THE BEST MEAL " as far as chinese goes" the owner i call him CHINA MAN the delivery guy (great driver by the way) is called crazy man. execellent serive freindly staff. a must try place . 5 stars no doubt SHARKY" read more
