Ahh I just realized I tried this place before. Yup still stands it's ehh. Crab Rangoon comes with no sauce! Like why?!? And no fortune cookies either. I'll remember to pass next time. read more

I am very happy to post this five star review. This is the second time I have ordered from ciao and my food was delicious. I had hot and sour soup that was chalk full of vegetables, tofu mushrooms, and whatever else they put in there and it was delicious a bit spicy, but that's okay that's why there's duck sauce. I also ordered tofu with eggplant and garlic sauce that was absolutely delicious. I haven't had that made so well since Baybridge was originally in business years ago. It did take a while for the food to come today, but I suppose that's because it's Christmas night and people are not cooking however I still feel that it rated five star review read more

Really solid Chinese restaurant, pleasantly surprised. They catered a party we had at our school and Yvonne (owner) was so accommodating and helpful with getting our large order together. Everyone loved the food! We will definitely come back for our next party catering needs! read more

This place is one of the best Chinese places I have been to and I really miss them since I moved out of the neighborhood. Their spare ribs are nice and meaty, love the fried chicken dumplings as well as sweet and sour chicken. House Mei Fun is also very good. read more

Delicious food - would recommend for sure. Ordered a bunch of things - boneless ribs, Shrimp in garlic sauce Fried rice & vegetable dish - all were wonderful & fresh! I prefer less sauce and they accommodated that very well. read more

Usually their food is very good, but this time they only get a one star because they're trying their best to make their boneless ribs completely uneditable!!! read more

My neighborhood, Chinese takeout. I've ordered from this place for the past three years, never a appointment. I've tried many Chinese takeout and a lot of time, It's either too oily or overly cook. What I like about this spot is that they can customize my order. The quality of their food is worth the extra $.50 to a dollar compared to other Chinese takeout. My go to dish is the beef sesame with the garlic sauce on the side. I don't like my dish to be cooked with cornstarch so I have them hold off on that, other Chinese takeout places they just ignore my request. Another plus for the spot is that they serve flank beef, which make their beef much more tastier, and better quality.If you're in the area, I highly recommend you stop by for their lunch special . read more

Good neighborhood Chinese take out, if you live local probably the fastest delivery known to man once you hang up the phone if your close they are there within 12-18 mins. read more

This place is a very good neighborhood Chinese take out place. The workers speak some English and the food is very good. I did notice that some prices have increased a bit, however the containers were very full. The menu is extensive and I recommend this place. read more

Good food and fast service. Been going here for years. Like some of the vegetables included but not all. Still like this chef specialty though. I do recommend this place. read more

Good service. Staff is friendly and professional. I have tried several Chinese food take out restaurants in the area. Chow Chinese take out is the best one I have found near Bayside so far. read more

Best chinese food in the area ! Everything is always fresh and delivery is fast every time. Service is always pleasant as well!

Good place to go to for Chinese food. Ambiance is not too great. Just a couple of chairs. With maybe one ore two tables. Mainly used for take out, rather than dine in. read more

Another sunny day but a tad bit windy out. I was running a bunch of errands. This was my first time trying Chow's today. I am impressed that their lunch specials are 7 days from 11:00 am to 3:30 pm! Wow, Chow's lunch specials are pretty affordable. I usually always order a beef dish but lately, I love eating General Tso's Chicken and Sesame Chicken. I decided to order the General Tso's Chicken over Pork Fried Rice and a can of Ginger Ale. Also, I bought a pack of Fried Noodle because I do love fried food hehe I grabbed my take-out and went back home to do a photo shoot of my food lol Wow, there was a lot of General Tso's Chicken...the broccoli was like a garnish hehe...everything was so yummy =) Definitely give Chow's a try! read more

Terrible they always forget to put the order together the right way like tonight they forgot the pancakes for my meal and the dumplings have metal in dumplings read more

My wife isn't a fan of Chinese fast food, but this is the only restaurant she'll eat take out from. They have one of the best sesame chicken I've ever had. Everything here is above average of your typical Chinese fast food restaurant dishes. Absolutely love their fried chicken and the orange chicken is delicious as well. They haven't done me wrong so far! read more

Been looking for a good Chinese food place in the area that is good and fills up the container. This place has great reviews so we gave it a try. Very nice over the phone for delivery. I had a large order and they were good about it. So the rib tips were a lot for a lg order which was great but pricey. They were also dry for $20 each. I do like the char flavor but I asked for extra sauce and it definitely didn't have extra. With the dryness it really needed that extra bbq sauce. The broccoli with garlic sauce was great, egg roll, everything was good just very expensive. Entrees for 3 people plus soup , crab Rangoon, egg rolls, side of fries was $120. I was speechless. The pics of the menu online I looked at was much cheaper. Obviously an old menu. I've never paid more than $60 for what we order. I can say it was enough for dinner the next day so thank goodness for that. They did give us a free general tso chicken because we spent over a certain amount and it was very good. I didn't get the sauce for the crab Rangoon that's usually given so I'll try it with duck sauce. I will try and eat here again but I will get smaller portions and ask for my pork not to be well done. I'll update next time. So 3 stars for price and dry rib tips. read more

Not ordering from here again. I Usually order from here all the time since I live close by but I don't know what happened to this place recently but especially tonight, I was very disappointed and had to leave this review. Ordered the sesame chicken (as I have before many times).... It was horrible. Every single piece of chicken was rock hard and extremely dry. It was very obvious that the chicken was definitely OLD. I basically ate the rice and threw out all the chicken after trying so many times to "just enjoy it" .. nope. Total waste of money but I really couldn't stomach it. Absolutely gross. Old . Dry. Over all just bad. Very bad. Especially compared to other places I go for sesame chicken and they're 100x better. Well.. I guess now I know they've definitely been taken off my list. read more

Food is good only problem is the delivery guy snatches the tip from your hand. No thanks just takes it right out of your hand.

I would've given this restaurant a 4 1/2 for takeout but lately they're getting orders wrong, and of course, when you get them delivered and you're hungry, you don't want to send them back!! But if you want a quick delivery of Chinese food, call them !! read more

Really good beef chow fun and boneless spare rib with pork fried rice. My family is Chinese and I've tried many different take out restaurants this is by one of the few really good ones. They are not super friendly but food is good. read more

I don't know what the other reviews are talking about, this is the best "American Chinese" take out in the area. Get their General Tso's or chicken wings. There's not much else I can say. read more

Best. Chinese in NY no question! Always fast, delicious and affordable. I won't order from any other Chinese restaurant in NY.

Average. Ordered pork with garlic sauce: $8.15 good price. Quick service. Nice wonton soup. Pork fried rice dry, stale; I know they can't make each order fresh, but that rice wasn't good. Pork was that pork already made, with a crust. Yuck! Nicely spiced, but 1 out of 3 doesn't cut it in food. Forgettable (I hope to). Ordered Szechuan chicken lunch. Fried rice not very good, though plenty of it. Sauce not very spicy, even a little sweet. Remains average. read more

Food came hot and fast! It was still steaming once it arrived. This is my go to Chinese take out spot because they always pack the containers to the brim and it's super fresh. I ordered the chicken broccoli with pork fried rice, fried crab Rangoon, and lo mein. read more

So so so disappointing.... I ordered yesterday for Mothers Day...I was very clear that I did not want the food before 6:00. The food arrived at 5:45....when I complained they said they are busy and could not control when the food was ready. They should have told me this when I was so emphatic about the delivery time. To make matters worse we found strands of hair in the food which was very disgusting. Again, they said I should have brought it back, however, with a house full of company I could not do this. My guest was so revolted by the sight, she tossed it in the trash. Last of all but not terrible my order was incorrect on some dishes. They were not very understanding when I called today. I will not be ordering from them again. My order total was $122 so they lost a good customer. read more

First time, last time. Sorry but this place doesn't get a 2nd chance from me. You had one opportunity to impress me and you failed miserably. I ordered the ever popular dish chicken with cashews. Not only was the person behind the counter not understanding, but she was also very rude. I explained 3 times how I wanted it prepared. Brought it home just to see there was literally 5 cashews in my dish and it wasn't cooked as I ordered it. 3 times I explained how I wanted it prepared and it wasn't at all. Sorry. I'm going back to my regular go-to spot on Utopia Pkwy. read more

I was so excited when I saw Chow open back up after weeks of being closed during quarantine. I love the free crab rangoons for some odd reason and I really craved them. Yum. Their meals always include loads of meat (like chicken and broccoli) and not over-battered and over-fried like others places can be. Favorite is the chicken with eggplant in garlic sauce. No freebies for now since they have limited supplies according to a sign. read more

I ordered here again they delivered to fresh Meadows I must say this place is amazing I don't know how come I haven't heard about it sooner but the food is so fresh and hot delivery was super fast. Delivery person was very nice called me and waited until the food was picked up by me. I will always be ordering from here on the food is just amazing. Also I ordered during lunch hours let me tell you how packed the food was full. Amazing amazing. I'm so happy I don't know if it's just the food or is that it was so fast and I'm hungry. It's a staple in the neighborhood I will be continuously ordering and letting family and friends know about this beautiful place. Thank you again. Today's order consisted with flounder with garlic sauce cubes fried rice sweet-and-sour chicken roast pork with garlic sauce and general tso chicken and general toes shrimp. So much food that may last for the week lol just kidding. read more

This is my go-to Chinese delivery place when I'm at work. Prompt delivery to our office and the eggplant in garlic sauce is always so delicious. Unlike most Chinese places that fry eggplant by itself, this place actually makes an effort to coat the eggplant with a thin layer of starch which makes a world of difference. The most impressive part about their eggplant in garlic sauce is that the zesty garlic sauce is soaked up by the batter which surprisingly holds up its integrity. I would also like to point out that the white meat chicken they use is cleaned well, and lightly seasoned with curry powder which I found impressive (the curry powder was not overpowering). The chicken breast actually tastes like chicken breast, not one of those weird overly tenderized meats some restaurants use. The reason why I took out one star is because the other dishes I've tried from here are pretty average. I also don't really like their fried rice so I always stick with brown rice. I think the lunch combo is probably the best deal. It comes with a choice of 1 entree, 1 type of rice, soda or soup. Generous portions on entrees as well. read more

This was my favorite Chinese take out, the food was very tasty, I have been ordering here for many years, until I googled the Board of health and found out that this place is a rat and roach infected colony. The health violations were super numerous, I was totally bewildered, I guess Filth and rodent infestation, makes tasty food. BEWARE! read more

I've ordered Beef with garlic sauce but they just gave me broccoli with oyster sauce. When I found out the wrong dish it was too late to go back. I called them and they just told me to bring it back and exchange. I felt like I donated $10 to the CHOW Chinese restaurant to be developed better. read more

Chow Chinese Take Out - Only broccoli with oyster sauce instead of beef with garlic sauce ($9 value) - Chinese Near Me - Bayside, New York

Came here for some take out. The people working here were very friendly and looked like they actually like their job compare to other Chinese take out places. Ordered a couple of lunch specials. Sesame chicken and Sichuan beef and both were delicious, hot and fresh. The portion was HUGE! And I love that they had brown rice. Overall, definitely come here if you want Americanized Chinese food and in the area. read more

Reliably consistent well-cooked good food (Beef Chow Fun, Shrimp Mei Fun, of course General Tso's Chicken) with nice ingredients, reasonable prices, easy to get to at a location on a local business strip. Have taken out from them several times over the last year. Never a long wait whatever time I've ordered. It's a take out place and the counter staff are quick, helpful and courteous. Definitely on my list of take out places. read more

I ordered the chicken lomein and an egg roll. The egg roll was okay by the lo-Mein was the best I ever had. I would definitely come back for more. read more

Food was ready quickly. Large portions, still hot, and lots of flavor. Our go-to spot in the area. Would recommend Yelp online ordering over phone ordering. read more

Usually this is THE best Chinese food in the neighborhood. I just placed an order for pick up. Tried something new from them ... Szechuan beef. Very disappointed. I've never had so much cabbage or bokchoy in it. Usually it's peppers and onions. There were 5 pieces of meat. Don't order this. read more

Ever since this place reopened after the initial outbreak the food has been outstanding, back to the way it was when I first started frequenting this place back in 2010. Chow Chinese has reclaimed it's place in my top three Chinese American fast food destinations east of Flushing Bay along with the two longstanding rivals just south of the Whitestone Expressway and north of downtown Flushing. read more

We are all pleased with the 6 dishes we got today for dinner. Delivery was on time. The guy who came was kind. They said that it would take half an hour and it came within that timeframe. Portions were generous and the ingredients were fresh and of good quality. For example, the sesame chicken came in nice, tasty chunks of chicken that are not drowned by the batter. The flounder cubes with garlic sauce was HUGE. Delicious! The Singapore Chow Mei Fun, a type of curry sautéed vermicelli with shrimp and veggie was also spectacular! It's on the spicy side, but not too hard to handle. The pepper steak with onion was well-seasoned. It comes as sliced beef with a good amount of pepper and onion. If you don't like veggie, you could consider beef with garlic sauce. String beans were tasty. Maybe because we ate half an hour after the food was delivered, that the string beans didn't have that pleasant snap when you bite into it. The steam might have softened the texture. My mom LOVED their chicken corn soup. It was indeed a wonderful pairing with all the rest. You can also choose white or brown rice. Both were good, but it was the first time that I found the brown rice appetizing. If you wanna order for more than 2 people, you can consider their "Any 2 Dishes + 1 Soup Family Meal" or "Any 3 dishes + 1 soup". Good value for a set of great food. Highly recommend this Chinese take out for the Flushing/Bayside area!! It's the freshness of the ingredients that will make me want to order in the future. read more
