This has to be at least my fifth, if not more, annual summer sit down visit at this restaurant. Separately, throughout each year, we do indulge in the occasional takeout order. But what's been a constant are these great annual early afternoon family dinners. We can't go wrong as service has always prompt and fairly friendly. Mind you the same servers are still here from when the Green Dragon became 'New'. Meals have been consistent and always served timely. The restaurant itself is always clean, with the same decorative reddish accents and wooden interior. With bright, semi-bright lighting. The New Green Dragon is a good neighborhood spot to get decent eats. Chill and catch up with family and get many belly laughs in between.

The locals I spoke with suggested we try China Wok, so let's check 'em out. From what I witnessed they are your basic Chinese-American fast food kitchen. With a couple of tables set up if you so happen to stay. Majority of the orders are to go. Ordering is no nonsense and meals are wok'ed up or fried quickly once placed. We stuck with ordering a couple of our go to staples for comparison. No major complaints, with the exception that I forgot to request light sauce on the General Taos, which when fulfilled you'll get a perfect ratio between crispy and sweet. So my bad on that. The portion received was huge and tasty, but I could only took a few bites of the cloying sauce. The order of Lemon Chicken had only one chopped up chicken breast sitting on top of a quarter head of chopped lettuce. Taste was good and similar to our previous go to but one chicken breast versus the usual two was out of proportion for the price. In place of our defunct go to, we'll give China Wok a second chance until we find an alternative.

Curious about the restaurant itself, I took the time to stop by and was impressed with the interior and how clean the restaurant looked. An additional plus, unlike most of the fast food Chinese restaurants in our area, they have ample seating available for dine-in.

DO NOT order anything from the "Special Summer Menu." It is essentially a bowl of tepid noodles slathered with some horrible commercial sauce and a few vegetables. You can do better at literally any other Chinese take out place in the area for less money. Mine was with some awful peanut sauce that made the dish inedible. These items should not appear on the menu. Also had the greasy scallion pancakes which were served with some sort of indistinguishable sauce (not soy, closer to hoisin, which is not typical). Again, could not finish as they were beyond the grease factor. I wanted to order the vegetable dumplings, which were reliably good, but for some reason did not appear on their automated menu system. Finally, as a Caucasian customer I always enjoy having the racist staff bring me a plastic fork instead of chopsticks. It is the final insult to a mediocre experience.

This 5 star review might do a bit of disservice to this place that has "Authentic Szechuan Cuisine"…read moredisplayed prominently on its awning. That being said let me preface. My family usually looks to me for restaurant recommendations or decide on where we are going to eat. My mom wanted Chinese food, which knowing her means Americanized Chinese dishes. Generally not hard to find quality places in Queens, but places with seating and great service are harder to find nowadays. I looked over the menu and saw all the classics that would fit the request: Wonton Soup, Dumpling, General Tsos, Shrimp with Lobster Sauce, Beef Chow Fun, and Pork Fried Rice. Each one of these dishes hit the mark exceedingly well! Wonton Soup and Dumplings were both well made. The soup had good flavor with straight forward scallions in the broth. Dumplings were nicely stuffed and tasty. The General Tso was the best I had in years! The large plump pieces are not overly breaded with juicy chicken meat inside. The sauce has the right amount of spicy flavor and not the usual sugar glaze found in most spots. It was a thinner sauce but perfect. A Banger! Pork Fried rice had a nice wok hei and everything you would like in a fried rice. It had a nostalgic flavor I enjoyed. The Beef Chow Fun was probably the weakest of the lot of strong dishes. Not the best version, but it fits the bill. I thought the flavor was lacking a bit with this. The Shrimp in Lobster Sauce were jumbo and tender. Mixing this with the fried rice added to my nostalgia. The wildcard dish I through in was the Cumin Lamb. I had to add a Szechuan staple considering the venue. This was a hit receiving especially high praise from my stepdad who enjoyed this and took the lion share. All the generous portions of food were devoured by my group of 5 and they were all extremely happy being overly effusive about how good the meal was. Its a good feeling living up to the resident foodie role in the family. I asked the woman at the front if they were open for New Years day she confirmed they were. I asked if they were usually packed and she also confirmed they usually are. This is where I would like to find myself for a low key holiday small group meal of delicious family style food. Legends of Taste lives up to its name!

I parked and saw the finishing touches on the new restaurant replacing Kung Fu XLB and decided to try a neighbor. Best decision ever: 1) Kan Wah was busy - 16 seats inside were occupied. Phone ringing nonstop. 2) The chefs were crankin' and laughing and having fun while they cooked. 3) a)The owner was a great guy. I opted for the Shrimp in Garlic Sauce lunch special plus extra garlic sauce and broccoli as add ons. A great piping hot entree/dish/ container came out on a red tray in 240 seconds. Tasty! The broccoli was well done.The shrimp pieces were huge, fresh and juicy. The sauce - not sweet or heavy at all. Light n delicious. The pork fried rice was gorgeous. The owner asked to ensure - pork ok? The egg drop soup that came with - best in NY! b) Accommodating owner - elderly local customer came in to eat. She brought her own plates and utensils. He said no worries and served her white rice on one plate and her eggplant in garlic sauce on the other. It was love and joy to see her enjoy her meal. * Ray Ray was inspired! Her dish looked so yummy that I ordered the same to go. c) Truck driver from NJ pulled up and got his favorite beef n broccoli extra extra spicy. d) Mom, Dad and daughter in school uniform came in at 2:35 pm and got some delicious fried chicken with pork fried rice. Yes typical NYC Chinese takeout with the above nice additions in a simple no frills atmosphere but dynamite food. Open at 10:30 . Plenty of free parking on side streets or $1.50 per hour up front. Cash only.

(While I wasn't a fan of the brown rice, the lo mein is worth the upcharge.) There are a variety of vegetarian options, though I mostly stick to the chicken dishes.

There are three things we absolutely love about Bell Garden:…read more 1. The food is seriously GOOD. 2. The value is unbeatable. 3. They accept credit cards! My wife and I order from Bell Garden almost weekly, and we are always satisfied. What impresses me most is their consistency with the dishes we usually order. Their quality never seems to drop, and every order tastes just as good as the last. Bell Garden can be a dine-in restaurant if you're eating alone, but it is primarily a takeout spot. We usually order by phone or online, and our usual order is the egg fu yong with roast pork (char siu), Singapore chow mei fun, and chicken chow mei fun. And let me tell you about the portions. The egg fu yong comes with THREE omelettes! Both chow mei fun dishes are packed so generously that you can practically get two separate meals out of each container, and they are loaded with ingredients. Everything is seasoned really well without being overpowering. We recently tried the chicken with broccoli for our toddler. It is usually a very basic and simple dish but MY GOSH. It was so well seasoned and flavorful that I was literally fighting my toddler over her own food. That says something! For the price, portion sizes, food quality, and consistency, it is honestly hard to find another Chinese restaurant that does it quite like Bell Garden. And one more thing that deserves a shoutout: they were OPEN during the recent blizzard AND during the current nor'easter rain! Seriously, if you are looking for delicious, generous Chinese takeout in the area, Bell Garden is one of our go-to spots. We will definitely keep coming back!
