This is the best Chinese food place most authentic and flushing New York. It's price super cheap and cooked by professional chef from all over Asia. This is my first time visiting here, and I fell in love with the food to variety and how convenient it is to buy all these food. You can get stuff from XLB to pork chop rice and everything you could have ever think of a scene in social media I swear read more

The New World Mall in Flushing has so much to offer! On their basement floor, they've got a huge food court with lots of different Asian food stalls that are DELICIOUS! A few boba chains located down here too, like Gongcha and TigerSugar. I love getting the Sichuan boiled fish & the mala xiang guo/ spicy stir fry hotpot, which you choose yourself what ingredients you want in your stir fry. The New World Mall also has a supermarket inside on their main level, JMart. On their third floor, is where you can find a restaurant that does dim sum during the day and Chinese dinner at night. Many small shops inside the mall, as well. Nail salon, scalp massage, boutiques, etc. Parking: I usually just find parking on the street. read more

As someone who frequented this spot during high school pre-pandemic, the nostalgia is real. I remember the post-school rush, when my friends and I would descend upon the food court (located in the basement floor, accessible by both the elevator and escalator), ready to scavenge for any available seating. The place would be teeming with people - locals, big families, and fellow students, all drawn by the sheer variety of food options. The atmosphere was always electric, a symphony of clinking utensils, sizzling grills, and animated conversations. Sort of chaotic, yes, but I love New World Mall food court for what it is - a cheap and affordable quick eats, no frills sort of place. One of my go-to spots is Lan Zhou Handmade Noodle (see my review here: https://www.yelp.com/biz/lan-zhou-handmade-noodle-flushing-2?osq=lanzhou+handmade). Their braised beef hand-pulled noodles are a bowl of pure comfort. The noodles are perfectly chewy, and the braised beef is tender, flavorful, and melts in your mouth. This dish is a testament to the art of hand-pulled noodles and the magic of slow-cooked beef - a match made in foodie heaven. If you watch carefully enough, you could spy on the chef in the background deftly pulling the noodles and tossing it to cook. But that's not all. New World Mall food court is a treasure trove of Asian food goodies. Craving some piping hot takoyaki? They've got it. How about some dumplings, spicy hotpot, or bubble tea? It's all here, waiting for you to explore. If you're visiting Flushing, New World Mall is definitely an essential part of the visit to grab some quick bites. I remember watching a vlog during the pandemic of some dude touring the food court and it was so empty, which was oddly terrifying (scaryyyyy!). Here are some tips to hopefully make your next visit smoother: - Bring Cash: Some stalls don't take card, so it's always good to have cash on hand. - Timing: If you want to avoid the peak rush, try visiting during off-hours. - Sharing: Come with friends and share different dishes to maximize your tasting experience. read more

Mall in the Flushing area with a solid food court (used to be better), terrible parking lot (expensive compared with the SkyView Mall), a few larger restaurants (hot pot, Sichuan and more). Lots of small shops for jewelry and toys, clothes, services, and bedding. Jmart is a large grocery on the first floor for produce, meat and dry goods where if you spend $50 you get 2hr of parking free. Elevators are big for groceries, etc. but the parking below the building is poorly designed and often traffic gets stuck, so be prepared to wait a bit - so don't get too close to your time limit(s) if you don't want to hit the next cost level. Cash only in the garage. read more

i honestly didn't see anything in here that i wanted to try or buy. they have a bunch of stores but just nothing came out at me. NO FUCKING AC. the whole mall was hot as fuck. the bathroom was just ok. no hooks on most of the womens bathroom doors. WOMEN HAVE BAGS! GIVE US FUCKING HOOKS!!!! i'm very picky with asian food but we also just wanted to walk around town and i didn't want to spend all my money in one mall. it was very crowded and just not for me. read more

This is a mall that also doubles as a food court and triples as a grocery store with JMart inside. The food court is on the bottom level with lots of options and obviously mainly Asian food. Boba options at the food court include Kung Fu Tea, Gong Cha, and Tiger Sugar. The shops there sold a variety of things ranging from clothes to jewelry to accessories. On the second floor of the mall there are signs for restrooms pointing in different directions but there were actually no restrooms on that floor. It seemed the only restrooms in the mall were on the bottom floor at the food court which were not great and had a distinctly unpleasant smell to them. It's bad when even I can smell it. The main feature here is the food court and JMart if you're looking to do some grocery shopping. read more

New World Mall - Food court - Shopping Centers Near Me - Flushing, New York

This place has alot to offer. But the crowds are chaotic...I felt like i was back in the Philippines street market with the pushy crowds. Biggest tip i have for this place : BRING CASH!! They do have a parking garage, located right before the entrance to the mall. The parking garage is very short. So be aware opening your trunk if you have a SUV. Be very conscious and aware making turns on the loops bc the roadway is narrow, has blind spots and tight turns on the loops particularly. Be aware that many of the food offerings are cash only. Since everything is pretty much made to order everywhere, it does take around 10 to more mins to get your orders. Alot of menus are in the native language of the food offerings. But don't stress too much if you can't read the options in that language bc many do show english menus too. The cafeteria can get crazy busy at times, so you will most likely have to share your table with strangers at times. They opened up a new spa upstairs and my husband tried it, but was told at the end that it was cash only. There were no atms upstairs, or really anywhere. There's really weak to no cellphone service within the building too, so he had a difficult time reaching me to get some cash for him. Luckily after 20mins of "idk how I'm supposed to pay" since he doesn't carrry too much cash, being a card person...one of the workers allowed for a zelle payment to their personal account. The parking as well is cash only. Because the parking garage entrance and exit is on a busy road, it can be hard entering and leaving. There are staff who will hold foot traffic back the best way they can, but pedestrians do what they want and will try to get hit and challenge the staff and your vehicle. Really ballsy. So you just have to be very aware of your surroundings. If you spend over $50 at jmart you can get your parking validated for up to 2 hrs. Don't forget your reusable bags too! If you forget, they offer for purchase reusable bags. But they are not $.05 bags because they are legitimate bags. read more

Nearly a decade ago when now defunct Flushing Mall (#1) was already on its last legs, the demand for something better and newer was sky high. Just in the last few years, the subsequent development and radical gentrification of the hood has lead to greater expectations for the next big time. New World Mall's name is not without irony, as it signaled one of the bigger changes not seen in Main Street for decades. In spite of the disappointment from many folks, it still remains one of the most popular places in Flushing to date. The majority of people coming here are either: * Going to the basement level food court: https://www.yelp.com/biz/new-world-mall-food-court-flushing * Going to the JMart to shop groceries: https://www.yelp.com/biz/jmart-flushing * Eating at Xiang Hot Pot / Daxi Sichuan / Grand Restaurant / Royal Queen or any of the big restaurants. * Randomly loitering at the Haagen-Daz near the entrance: https://www.yelp.com/biz/h%C3%A4agen-dazs-flushing-3 The biggest gripe that many folks have are with the mini retail / boutique scene is that so many of them are not local brands. In fact, the lineup is reminiscent of something one would find at a knock off (#2) mall somewhere in Asia. If anything, this makes New World Mall a more authentic Asian mall experience than any other place in the borough. People shouldn't get all bent out of shape because the stores don't appeal or conform to them. Trust me when I say there's an audience for every storefront (#3) I think that New World Mall is the perfect place to kill time when the weather outside is terrible. There's plenty of food to eat, random stores to browse, supermarket shopping and rarely enough people to ever feel overwhelmed by crowds. If there's any improvement to be had, it's got to be the WiFi (especially in the basement) and the maintenance of the bathrooms. The latter is way too putrid on the men's side. __________ (#1) R.I.P: https://www.yelp.com/biz/flushing-mall-flushing (#2) Not an actual mall that is fake, but rather a mall that sells many imitation products. (#3) Yes, even when they're empty. read more

Right off the 7 train, this mall includes an expansive asian food court and huge JMart supermarket. Reviewed JMart separately, so this review is for the food court! A perfect spot to try authentic dishes from many asian countries all in one place! KEY TAKEAWAYS: - AMBIANCE - Food court setting with ample seating and very clean. Went at 5pm on a weekday so it wasn't very crowded but expect it gets quite busy at prime times. Most vendors speak at least some english and the pics listed next to options at many stalls are helpful. - FOOD - Amazing across the board. Have been daydreaming about going back and made plans for this month. This time I'm taking leftovers! --- SOUP DUMPLINGS - Xiao Long Bao (Soup dumplings) from E Noodle - The only stall I noticed selling these and was not disappointed. These were top notch with the perfect amount of soup, flavor and consistency. $7.25 (Listed under appetizers as Shanghi dumplings) - SEE PIC of stall. --- PINEAPPLE FRIED RICE - w veggies was to die for. I loved Thai food in Thailand but am often disappointed with the plethora of Thai restaurants. I was not disappointed with my rice. I am huge on sauces and it didn't even need any, the rice was so flavorful and pineapple was lightly grilled (SEE PIC OF STALL). $11.50 --- BUBBLE TEA - Delicious with fresh boba at the well known Kung Fu Tea. - CASH - Reading other reviews, I just brought cash for everything as many stalls don't take card. - LOCATION - I don't recommend driving as street parking is VERY and I repeat VERY limited but that is flushing. The 7 train is only 1 block away. read more

An essential part of a visit to Chinatown is here. It has all kinds of interesting things inside. New World Mall isn't that big but it has lots to check out. Food court is the favorite. The upstairs also has some cheaply made stuff. Best thing here is the food court. It has all kinds of Asian food. There's Chinese, Japanese, and Thai. Most people are only interested in this area. There's so much to choose from. Dumplings are some of the best. They also have noodles and soup. As for the rest of the mall, there's some things to look at. J-Mart is a grocery store. Also you can find pretty cheap clothes. Unfortunately most of these are knockoffs. It's expected. They have some things that are worth checking out. I like the food court the most here. It's pretty noisy so know that going in. The grocery store upstairs also has hard to find ingredients and stuff. read more

New World Mall - Inside - Shopping Centers Near Me - Flushing, New York

I feel the mall has gotten less than okay as time goes by. I've always enjoyed the food court since it has been a staple ever since I came there after my classes. If anything, the most horrible experience I had was when there was a person with severe autism who kept bothering people and making a scene. Mall security and management showed up obviously, but they didn't really do anything like kick him out of the mall. I know it doesn't look good that they would do that to a person with disability, but since it was an ongoing situation every day, I felt like it should have been dealt with earlier for the longest time. Grocery store isn't bad in my opinion. Has great options. I just can't help but smell fish in the entire mall because of this. And it does get crowded so prepare yourself for long lines. read more

I was a bigger fan of the Nude World Mall, but that got shut down by Rudy Giuliani (not my favourite person, not even in my 7 billion favourite people), so there you go. I recommend that every single person visit the New World Mall. Especially if you're not Asian and/or have never been to the Far East, because being inside this Mall is (in my limited experience) exactly what it is like to be inside a shopping Mall in the Far East. Sure, there are some American elements to it, but it seems less than 10% of the clientele are not East Asian, and less than 5% of the stores and products and foods and drinks are not East Asian, and so it really is the true "Mall Of Chinatown". People will take you to, or direct you to, Chinatown Manhattan. That's nice enough, for tourists and maybe for a blend of cultures. However if you want the real deal, the true ethnic immersion, the absolute authenticity, it has to be Flushing. This Mall is the busiest and largest in Flushing (that I have been to), and has a massive amount of food options. I usually go straight down to the ground floor (where the food court is) and indulge in some Bubble Tea and such. The prices in this Mall aren't great (when are Mall prices ever great), but the Bubble Teas are amazing. Coco (outside, on the street) is probably my favourite, but the chain (with very rude service) in the corner at the back - Gong Cha - has freaking amazing Milk Tea too. Give it a try and see what I mean. Next door, the more friendly TBaar (with ads all over the mall) make fancy fruity Bubble Teas that might really rock your world if you have a sweet tooth. The Passion Fruit was great. The obligatory Kung Fu Tea has good service and recommendations (some days), and the typical array of chain-bubble-tea options. Their Almond Milk is good, they use Lactaid instead of Milk, and their Lemon Black Tea wins the Bubble Tea World War. Altogether, you must come into this Mall for the experience. But don't come in this Mall unless you're in private, in a stall, in the bathroom. It's no longer the Nude World Mall and we exhibitionists have to get used to that, or we'll be getting used to Jail Time. read more

Currently CASH ONLY for the main store Availability & selection of food/other items: 5 stars You want Asian food? You got it. Everything you can possibly imagine or want is here. Frozen dim sum, vegetables, noodles, snacks etc. As with any produce store, wash & inspect your vegetables. I don't come here to buy fruit, in fact, I only buy fruit at local grocery markets. I get mainly Chinese veggies here b/c they're not sold elsewhere. Prices are decent- even cheap by comparison to the prices I often see in the Bay Area. Cleanliness: 3.5 stars The store/mall is clean enough to pass the health check. Customer service: 2-3 stars Don't expect a sparkling clean, upscale store where the staff will be nice and friendly to you. Asians here mean business- they're quick, ruthless, and blunt...they will wave you off if you take too much of their time. With that said, if you have questions, they are helpful and will answer your questions. Just don't come here with expectations for "good" customer service. It's just how they operate and function. COVID: Someone takes temperature at the entrance & hand sanitizer is available. I honestly recommend a face shield here b/c it gets crowded like at the airports where you can't really socially distance 6 ft. Everyone here wears face masks...correctly, so that's a plus. Food court: Right below and some restaurants like Xiang hot pot is right above read more

I only come here for the supermarket and the food court. I usually buy snacks from the supermarket as I cannot find the same snacks else where. The supermarket carries a large variety of snacks. The food court has a great variety of restaurants that you can dine in. They are: Kung Fu Tea, Korean restaurants, meat sticks, dumplings, handmade noodle soup, and others. The food are usually made fast and cheap price. The food taste is usually good read more

Words cannot even describe how awesome New World Mall is. You have to see it for yourself to truly believe it, especially the food court area in the basement. See seperate Yelp page specifically for the Food Court. Unlike the other malls in Flushing, all of the stalls are open to the public. There is a full size grocery store, and a dim sum banquet hall restaurant on the top floor. New World Mall also has: -hair salons -clothing stores -accessory and jewelry shops -some of the cutest shoes ever, but only go up to about size 7 1/2 -circle contact lens store -lingerie boutique -candy store -nail salon -cell phone and accessories shop -home goods stores The list goes on... The front of the building on the upper floors has some of the best views of Flushing Chinatown that I have ever seen. Many people will just stand there is front of the glass front window staring out for hours. read more

An Asian mall complex crammed with three levels of Asian fast food court, jewelry, cheap nail salons, cheap hair salons, candy stores, home goods, sketchy clothing stores, Hello Kitty accessories, lingerie boutique, and sketchy accessories sold and seen from street peddlers for tech gadgets. Do not expect high quality for permanent long term usage. Mandarin Chinese spoken here is the time/place serving most useful without businesses doping customers. The main level houses a Chinese supermarket, Jmart. New World Mall is where the young and 20 year olds hang after school. Note: Cash only in most of these businesses. read more

Well now, I just breezed up the rickety escalator, stepping clinging and climbing my way to the top as quickly as my feet can fly. Partially because of the meter, partially because of the safety risk inherent with the old machinery that transports me. So I thought it wise too only ride one floor, the meters running. Enduring harsh oderificious eminations of fishy fish that may have been hanging around a bit, I thought it wise too bide my time as I just can't be at peace with that scent permeating my nostrils, especially when every third step entails a minor collision. Watch where your going people! The rows of fish all lined up upon the ice was a splendid sight too behold, so colorful, so plentiful, so unsure how to cook 'em. IIn addition, I can say with complete certainty that I've never seen so many fish balls of every type. A wonderful representation of pork and chicken but not so much with the beef -- I didn't see one single steak and I've no idea why. Produce was on par with many of the large supermarkets in the area, in that, the options seem limitless, well stacked on display and priced very fairly. read more

In my opinion, this mall should be renamed *New Asian Mall*. read more

Yesterday, I was bored and in the area so I decided to stop by here just to check it out. Way back in the day (I feel old), this used to be a Caldor (a department store similar to Target). Stepping in this mall is like visiting Hong Kong. There are a whole bunch of Asian specialty shops in this mall. The mall also has a large food court and Asian-style supermarket. Although there are a lot of interesting shops, this mall didn't have that one place that really attracted me (i.e. Dave and Busters). If you're in the area, like Asian food or specialty products, or have an affinity for attractive Asian chicks then I encourage you to come here. However, this isn't really a place to travel across the city to visit. read more

Of all the shopping malls that...I have been to and nothing is like the New World Mall of Flushing, New York which is right in the heart of Flushing New York Chinatown!!! New World Mall is one of the most nicest shopping mall that... I have ever been to!!! And it was my 1st time ever for me that... I have gone shopping several times at the New World Mall!!! And not only that the New World Mall was very close walking distance from my hotel where I was staying at... My most favorite thing that, I really like most about this New World Mall is the big food court that they have in the lower level and they also have a nice super market called J mart which is similar to our 99 Ranch of Daly City, Ca... And also they have some interesting stores to shop at!!! New World Mall also has a very fancy & big yum cha place which is called Grand Restaurant it is located in the upper level!!! read more

Okay haters, I'll tell you why I actually like this mall. 1. More public bathrooms in Flushing. 2. Clean Asian food court. May not have really awesome noodles like the Golden Shopping or dumplings like Flushing, but it's the most hygienic one thus far (due to being new though). 3. More seating space that the rest of the other Flushing malls so far. Not enough on the weekends though, but teens have space to play card games on weekdays now =P 4. Jmart. It's a good supermarket. 5. Grand Restaurant. It has improved greatly since opening and its dim sum was great the last time I've been there. 6. Game Champ. Cheaper than Game Stop. 7. Shelter. Those crazy random thunderstorms these days? Great time to crash at the mall. 8. Haagen Daz. 9. This is going to be the new meeting area now. Before, it was "meet me in front of Old Navy" or meet me inside "Duane Reade". Now, it's going to be at the mall. I'll have to say that the stores on the 2nd floors are mediocre, but the view is nice from upstairs. read more

The New World Mall on Main Street, Flushing, is a fair imitation of the urban malls that populate the mid to large cities in China and Taiwan. Three floors of mostly chain stores knock offs that really don't have much to offer in terms of quality, nor price. Still, those coming of age in their early teens find this the hub of their social lives. Better here, than in some more sinister locale. The two main draws are the J Mart supermarket on the first and second floors, where that ideal and specific soy sauce or tofu are available in broad displays that mimic an outdoor market, but under more comfortable atmospheric conditions thanks to air conditioning and heating. This store seems about the largest Asian grocery in Flushing, very similar to the H Marts in many other parts of the country. The second major attraction is the basement food court, where several dozen small shops compete for your attention with a few dishes from the homeland. Some are quite good; others, not so much. Worth a walkabout to see what's going on, but remember that if you want to sit and eat you must plan ahead to find chairs and table space for your group. That can take longer than standing in line to buy what you desire to consume. Avoid the bathrooms and the experience isn't so bad. Whether you live in the neighborhood or are just visiting, a walk through New World Mall should be on your list of places to check out while downtown. Your bound to find something you didn't know you needed, but you suddenly can't live without. How about those fresh Belt Fish on ice, or fresh prickly Jack Fruit for the kids? read more

I actually found queens crossing a huge failure and the sight of the building gets on my nerves. The only thing I like about it was rose tea garden and now there is kung fu tea. Everything else food wise in queens crossing is overpriced and sucks in quality (and tastes like pure salt). However new world mall I feel will be more successful. I didn't expect anything else but small shops with imported things from asia, what did people expect? But I like the layout and everything feels nicer to walk through. I found a shop on the 2nd floor with dried taiwanese beef and pork jerky and a bunch of asian candy opened by a taiwanese lady. I immediately bought some jerky and proceeded to chew on them while walking through the place. I am not interested in any of the clothing but maybe I'll give it some time and see how the hair salons fare. There is also this asian makeup shop that I might check out to see if the prices there for bb cream and other things are fair. I think the most successful would be the supermarket, the food court , and the dim sum place though. I toured the food court and it looks like there is a great variety- hope it lives up to the hype! read more

The place is busy all the time. Inside there are several restaurants, a supermarket, a food court, and many small shops. However, the place is expensive. This is an alternative to the Flushing Mall which was demolished several years ago. I feel that the supermarket is convenient​ but is always busy​​. I would never go to the restaurants inside the mall unless I get invited as they are overpriced. read more

This one star belongs to the people who are selling the dim sum carts from the restaurant on the 2nd floor. Since there's no indoor dining, they decided to bring all their dim sum and entrees downstairs and put it near the escalators to the food court and also the other entrance by the footlocker. These people are SHADY AF. They tried to charge my dad 25% in "taxes" for a stir fried noodle dish. The order came out to $6.00 even and the woman said that my dad needed to pay tax so my dad asked how much with tax and she said $7.50 LOL. Last time I checked NY tax is 8.875. The woman is living in a different state charging 25% tax. There's no itemized receipt that displays the price or the tax either. Be careful when you order. People are literally charging whatever the hell they want because of this pandemic. You shouldn't be charging a "COVID fee", imaginary taxes" or any other surcharge because YOU decide to open. Everyone has a lot of catching up to do and everyone is trying to save their businesses but you don't save your business by being a lying scum about it. Ridiculous. TRASH read more

This isn't really so much a shopping mall, at least not to me. If you are looking for an excellent shopping experience and you don't speak Chinese, this might not be a place for you. I come here solely for the food court. It is almost an hour away from the city but I do travel here from time to time to taste some quite authentic Chinese food. They have a $13 stir fry lobster dish with fried rice combo dish, ice cream crepes, Sechuan Hot Pot, hand-pulled noodles, Korean cuisine and a few bubble tea stands. You can get entree, desserts and beverages all at one place. It is also surprisingly inexpensive. There is a supermarket on the ground floor that is stocked with majority, Asian grocery. The meat and seafood here seems questionable. They are really really cheap but the color of it doesn't seem too fresh. The fruit and vegetable section seems more reasonable. Up from 2nd floor you will find hundreds of small shops selling from underwear, tea leaves to accessories. It is fun to walk around and look at what crazy outrageous custom cases Chinese create for iPhone. read more

Absolutely terrible Parked my car there at night, the attendant said they close at 2am. I arrived at 1:55am, and they were closed. Arrived this morning to pick it up. Greeted by a hostile and rude older gentleman barking words at me. After handing him my claim ticket, he spent the next 10 minutes unable to find my car asking if it was a Honda, even though I said Hyundai 4 times. The other attendant found my car and decided it was appropriate to whip around the corner of the indoor parking garage at 30 miles an hour to drive 100 feet. I inspected my car before getting in, noticing there was a big dent next to the driver door handle. After questioning the attendant that brought my car as to how the dent had appeared, he proceeded to say "me no drive, I don't know" even though they attendant knew perfect English minutes before, and refused to say anything else. Tl;dr Rude, unprofessional, careless, will dent your car. read more

Review is for the new Tony Moly store and the Missha/Everyday Beauty store. Apparently Tony Moly opened a new brick and mortar store in Downtown Flushing inside New World Mall (Unit #117). It's on the first floor, enter the mall on the Roosevelt Ave side to avoid going through the escalators that will lead you into the supermarket (you don't want to go through this bottleneck, trust me). If you do find yourself in the supermarket side, Tony Moly is the first store you see once you pass the cashiers (hallelujah)! Very large and clean store in comparison to the K-town location. There are digital displays outside the windows with current store promotions. They had the very newest products like the Strawberry Latte Art scrub ($19.99) that's not even advertised anywhere yet. It was very moisturizing and nice smelling. There is also the new banana sleeping pack that I got to test (btw, it smells TOO much like bananas and I won't want to get this anymore). I got to play around with the testers and most of them were new thanks to the recent grand opening. Well stocked store and the salesladies try to be helpful. I know they will "follow you" if you don't kindly let them know that you'd like to just browse on your own so I let them know that if I had questions, I will find them. It may seem annoying but this is the sales culture in Asia. They had TM commercials play in the store and it was nice to feel like you're back in Korea for a little while. Missha/EverydayBeauty store (Unit #205): Seeing the Missha signage outside means it's official - Missha is here! Look and feel is accurate to the brand as if you were in Korea but right past the aisle is the section for Everyday Beauty selling other lines of beauty products. They ran a 30% off special on select products but I found it hard to purchase anything in store when the Missha USA website will hold a 40% off everything sale during certain holidays (notably around Thanksgiving). My advice it to pop over to play with testers to see if you would like to purchase anything full size online - I mean there is free shipping for spending over $40 which you can easily reach. If you need something immediately, it seems like the store prices are the same as the online prices so you know you're not getting jipped (I only price compared the Super Aqua line). Salesladies also very nice and respectable if you like to browse alone. They will speak in Mandarin first and some younger girls will know English. Huge variety of fake lashes, masks and lotions on the Everyday Beauty side. I would come all the way to Flushing again if I ever needed anything! read more

What's with the hostile service?! Maybe I'm just not used to New York compared to Florida... This is a review mainly on the food court. There was a line for one of the food places that had fresh hand pulled noodles, so I figured this was the place to be. The lady taking the order basically screamed at me in Chinese... Sheesh. I didn't even get a tray like everyone else to put the bowl of piping hot soup on. Besides the service, the food was actually good. The noodles were perfect, and the amount of seafood was so so. But I found it to be seasoned nicely. My friend and I then split Taiwanese ice and it was DELICIOUS. I would come here just for that. Be prepared though, it's a huge portion. For the yummy dessert, I bump it up one star. I would go here again, but maybe try a different vendor. read more

New World Mall - Shopping Centers Near Me - Flushing, New York

Okay I am a "la why" so I find a three level Asian mall with supermarkets, shops and a huge food mall in the basement fascinating. I have been here several times and always feel I have traveled to Asia! The food in the food court ranges from average to above average and althought there are many tables and seats there are always many people as well, so sometimes finding a spot resembles looking for a parking place in midtown Manhattan. There is also a bakery and Asian sandwich shop on the left when you enter the Mall from Main Street that has very good Sheng Jian Bao (fried soup dumplings) at 4 for $2. Actually sometimes they are very good but sometimes they are fabulous (they are a bit inconsistent). But please buy yours on weekdays because on weekends I come from Brooklyn and they sometimes have already run out by midday! Louise, if you visit, go here first, the bathrooms were pretty scuzzy! read more

I'll get to the point...New World Mall is a disappointment. It feels like they've brought some of the stores that were part of the decrepit Flushing Mall into here and wrapped it in a slightly better looking and more trafficked location. The J-Mart supermarket on the first floor is not that bad and prices seem competitive with local supermarkets. The second floor is full of tiny stores that mainly offers women's clothes, beauty salons, and more clothes. Nothing much to offer for the average shopper unless you like shopping at tiny, cheap looking boutique stores. I haven't been to the third floor restaurant but I've heard it's mostly generic Chinese dim sum fare that you can find around Flushing. Nothing remarkable about it. The one saving grace is the food court and the plethora of options it offers. I did have a bad first time experience there but I'm willing to give it another shot since I probably just had bad picks. I'm glad they finally made something out of the ancient shell of Caldor that had been rusting away for the better part of a decade. However, I'm disappointed with the shops that are in here and will go spend some time in the less crowded and more useful Sky View Center instead. read more

DO NOT BUY VEGETABLE FROM HERE Do not buy vegetables from here if you don't want to eat bugs. I got a celery from here and I found a dead brown worm from inside. 2 weeks later, I got a bag of bok choy, and I found 2 stink bugs inside. I screamed when I found one of them on my cutting board. I cut it together with the vegetable. If I didn't see it's body cut in half and wonder what it was, I would've not realized and cooked it. There is no picture because this is just disgusting, and people don't want to see it anyways because it's just so gross. I like how they have a variety of foods, I might still buy packaged dry foods, but no more for vegetables or fresh foods. Be careful if you buy fresh products from here. read more

The shopping parts of the mall were boring. Nothing to really hold the attention of a 20-something gentrified yuppie male. JMart was decent and had some good deals on produce (lines were also quick). The Grand Restaurant at the top was cool, and the food court at the bottom was an experience that we definitely do not have in Brooklyn. All in all, a pretty cool experience for someone who hasn't been to Flushing in ages. See my reviews of individual places for more information. By the way, you can't get your parking validated by the Grand Restaurant. Found out the hard way, but JMart will do it with a $30 purchase! read more
