    I was in the area and wanted lunch. "Green Leaf" was recommended to me, by a colleague. I figured, can't go wrong with a recommendation. That statement would haunt me the rest of the day. There is a tiny parking lot, so your best best is street parking. This restaurant is small and off to the side. It's almost invisible. But at a send glance, I found it. Inside is dated. There is nothing modern. You head over to the counter and place your order. My food came out pretty quickly and that was perfect because I was starving. I started with the crab ragoons. They were okay. They lacked filling, but tasted good. The sauce you dip them in was watered down, so I avoided it, after I made my way to my chicken. Sorry to report, it wasn't good. The chicken was chewy and lacked sauce. The rice was dry and the pork in it was chewy. I got half way through before being unable to finish. I probably won't go back. Also, I won't ask for a recommendation from anyone, who doesn't Yelp.

    Shrimp pad Thai
    Kevin C.

    This is known as a Chinese / Thai takeout place. Anytime you see where places offer two different ethnicities, you tend to get iffy as you want a place to get something right. I have to admit I quite enjoyed my takeout. I had the lunch special pad Thai which came with a couple of large shrimps. The texture and heat on the dish is smack good. I got it to go and it wasn't lumpy at all once I ate it home 10 mins in. It came with a choice of spring roll or 3 different type of Thai soups. That was a nice touch. My wife had the pineapple shrimp curry lunch special which she wasn't a fan off. She felt they used too much msg and salt. All in all, I will keep this at a moderate 3 stars but I personally will go back for sure as for Thai takeout, it is decent and price of around $8 for each is acceptable.

    Tofu Pineapple Fried Rice
    Jessica J.

    I found a Green Leaf menu in my mail box. I took a good look at it, and then went to Yelp. Green Leaf had less than five reviews, and one out of the five was not a review on their Thai food. In any event, even though I am skeptical of Thai food in Middle Village, I wanted to try it. I figured, if I really enjoy it, it would be nice to have a Thai place in this area. It's UN precedent. For my first order, I got a delivery of Thai Tea, Tofu Pineapple/Coconut rice, and good ol' friend banana's. I've never had a bad Thai Tea. They offered a generous portion of rice. Their pineapple rice was good. It wasn't amazing, but it was good. In fact everything was good. I will always like fried banana's. I know it's very common, but I like it. I especially like friend banana's, when it's like a fried spring roll banana. Green Leaf, just fried the banana, but it was still good. Everything was neatly packaged. About a week after my first order, I had my grandmother visit with me. I made another order for Green Leaf. This time, I picked up the food in person. I wanted to check out the place. It's on the south side of Metro. The place looked brand new and really clean. I can't say if there was another business in place before Green Leaf opened. Anyway, I order Pad See Ew with Tofu. I was really disappointed with it. I didn't finish it, mainly because I did not like it. There was a few chunks of fried tofu, and that was tasty. I was disappointed with the noodles in the dish. I know the dish calls for thick flat noodles, and I've always liked the dish. But, at Green Leaf it tasted like Chinese Chow Fun. It did not remind me of Pad See Ew. So, I've had two meals. One I enjoyed, one I disliked. That's breaks even, right? But, I also liked their tea and dessert., so we are at 3 stars. I am not going to rush back here. But, if I do come here, I know what to stay away from.

    Green Thai chicken curry-taste perfect
    Bela D.

    I finally found a good Thai place close to where I live! Delivery was super fast. Maybe 10min. Green Thai curry is really good. They put green and red peppers in it and it's sliced thin. They put eggplant in it as well as fresh chicken. I really like how they make the eggplant. The coconut soup from the lunch menu is really good too. Exactly what I wanted. Delivery guy was nice n so was the person taking the orders on the phone. Very fast and efficient. Glad I discovered this place

    Xiaomi Z.

    Umm..m. I don't know how you can eat this Chinese food. I'm Chinese and I live in middle village, do they even known how to make a lomein? And how can a basil chicken has only two basil leafs for Thai food..Thai food need to be serious about making their scent and spicy, this is so not Thai. The fried chicken is so hard and over night. Please if you want american Chinese go to jade bamboo or somewhere in the neighbourhood or if you can hold on go to flushing then. American Chinese food only deceive u white Caucasians.

    I enjoyed a dinner here with a group of 7 friends. We ordered 9 dishes total and everyone left very…read morefull. Some standouts were the twice cooked pork, the dry fried long beans, and the fish soup. The twice cooked pork had very thinly sliced pork and it was rich and well seasoned with chili bean paste. The long beans were wrinkly and deep fried with savory ground pork mixed in. The fish sound had abundant tender pieces of fish and a creamy mild broth. I convinced my dining companions to try the braised kidney flowers, as 火爆腰花 is one of my favorite sichuan dishes and I was interested to try this braised version. While most of my friends were not particularly into the kidney, I really enjoyed this dish. The hatched kidneys were floating in a rich broth with peppers and bundles of glass noodles. The noodles were unexpected, but a very welcome addition as they allowed me to consume more of the delicious braising liquid. The kidneys were tender and bouncy, exactly I as expected them to be. I didn't place the order so I'm not sure if you can select the spiciness level of your food when ordering, but I didn't find any of this food to be particularly spicy and I found the tingly mala notes to be muted. While everything was very delicious, aside from the sweet and sour pork which I found to be inedibly sweet, I think this is a more tame and toned down expression of bold Sichuan flavors. The service was extremely friendly and I would return again for another group dinner, as they have enough options here to satisfy a wide variety of diners with different palettes. Hopefully next time I can sell my companions on the 夫妻肺片,as I've heard they make a great iteration of the dish here at Mountain House and I would love to try it.

    Szechuan mountain house is one of the original Szechuan restaurants to open in downtown flushing…read more It continues to draw in a sizeable crowd due to its strong reputation. I've dined here with my family twice and in the most recent occasion, we came with no reservations around 2:30pm on a Sunday. All the tables were taken as they just opened at noon so we had to wait a bit. Their menu / iPad ordering system was simple to navigate and quick to place. Our table was started off with their spicy pickled cabbage, which was super addicting. I love how the spicy oil was so flavorful and the cabbage was soft and just slightly tangy. We ordered 5 dishes for our party of 5: the la-zi chicken, stir fried cabbage, grilled beef ribs, beef and mushroom bibimbap and mao xue wang. My favorites were the la-zi chicken as the diced chicken was super crispy and flavorful. The spice level and numbingness was just the right amount. Next comes the beef and mushroom bibimbap, which is mixed and served at the table. The flavors were more soy based and was very balanced. The stir fried cabbage was cooked well but the pork in the dish was extremely salty. The grilled beef ribs came with steamed baos, similar to peking duck. I enjoyed the experience and presentation but the dish was a bit boring. Toppings included a spicy hot sauce, cucumbers and scallions along with the sliced beef that was individually torched at the table. Lastly the mao xue wang is a traditional stew featuring offals and blood curds. This one had duck blood, tripe, and intestines. I was extremely disappointed by this dish as I was expecting some tofu and small pork intestines but it didn't have either. The tripe and intestines were very crunchy, wherwas the duck blood was silky and soft. The flavor was very basic mala stew and had a ton of red chili peppers. Overall I had a decent meal at Mountain house but can't help but wonder if I ordered the right things since not everything was as good as I hoped. I will mostly likely return to give their other menu items a try.

The dish was not overly oily, and was pleasant over white rice. I enjoyed the chewiness of the pork which allowed you to experience the complex flavor. The green beans were well fried, with characteristic texture signature to this dish. The seasoning was very well balanced and not overpowering to the natural sweetness of the green beans. I would recommend either dish. They were both slightly toned down iterations when compared to the times I've eaten these dishes at other Sichuan restaurants in flushing, but still well seasoned and well cooked.

My friend wanted an IPA, but they ran out of the beer. She asked for a recommendation and the server ended up going to the kitchen and specifically finding an IPA for her. I had a sip and it was quite good! The restaurant was beautiful with lots of space! The seats were very comfy. I appreciate how they actually gave us good seats.
