I'm no expert on Indo - Chinese, I do know what I like and I loved Teng's. Ate here on Chritmas Eve 2025 and was bowled over by the flavors, just delicious. We ordered Chicken Pakora and Momos, for apps and House Special Noodles, Hakka Chicken, Eggplant, and a fried fish dish in a tamarind sauce over bean sprouts. Portions were generous, food served straight from the wok, dipping condiments were a little different and delicious. The family that owns the place is friendly accommodating and attentive. It's a Halal restaurant so guess what? No booze, and thus no loud drunks. LOL I've got an issue with noise levels in restaurants and even though this little place was pretty packed, I could still have a conversation over dinner without screaming. If you're interested in trying a new twist on Chinese Food, give Teng's a try, you won't be disappointed. read more

***INDO-CHINESE FLAVOR BOMB IN YOUR MOUTH*** ***SUPER FRIENDLY FAMILY-RUN RESTAURANT*** INDO-CHINESE? In the early 1800's a large number of Chinese citizens, immigrated to Calcutta, a city in the northern part of India, close to China. After becoming established, many of these immigrants started opening restaurants to support themselves. And then, because of a lack of certain ingredients, and to tailor the food to the palates of the Indian citizens, these Chinese chefs altered their recipes. And these new recipes, incorporated certain Indian spices, and a heavier use of spices and sauces - which made these new style dishes especially appealing - and created what is known today as Indo-Chinese, or Indian-style Chinese food. MASTER CHEF MIKE TENG Mike Teng, son of Hakka Chinese parents, was born and raised in India. He started cooking at 14, and eventually became a head chef preparing Indo-Chinese food in Mumbai. Then in 1984, he emigrated to the US and worked in the restaurant industry, until he became executive chef at the famous Jade Eatery & Lounge in Forrest Hills Queens. And it was here that he became notorious for his unique cuisine, and went on to receive numerous accolades. A DIFFERENT APPROACH After seven years of grueling work at Jade, Mike decided to take a break from the restaurant industry for a while. Then in 2019 he opened Teng's Restaurant, and set up operations in a way that would minimize work. As such, the restaurant would only open for dinner, between 4-11 PM, and there would be minimal table service. So let me explain how this works: You sit down at a table, and a friendly family member takes you order and helps with recommendations if necessary. And then you grab paper plates & cups, and plastic utensils from a shelf by the front counter. There's also a refrigerator here with drinks to choose from. And then the food is served to you at the table in take-out style containers. THE KEY TO ORDERING HERE There are a relatively large number of items on the menu, but most of the dishes can be broken down into a few different styles, such as Hakka Chili, Manchurian, Salt And Pepper, Orange, Szechuan, Basil, Kung Pao, and Ginger & Scallion. And the key to ordering here is to avoid choosing multiple dishes in the same style, as the meal & flavors can become one-note in nature. But if your vigilant, and pick some of the best items from each style, you will be rewarded with an Indo-Chinese flavor bomb in your mouth. FIRST TIME? GIVE THESE A SHOT So a few recommendations to try on a first visit, if you're able to enjoy spicy foods would be: - Hakka Chili Style Chicken or Beef - Salt and Pepper Style Fish Filets or Chicken - Orange Chicken or Kung Pao Chicken - Manchurian Style Fish or Chicken - General Tso's Chicken or Tofu - Ginger and Scallion Chicken - Szechuan Wontons or Momos - Orange Glazed Wings or Hakka Chili Wings - Basil Fried Rice - Hakka Noodles And here's a few vegetable recommendations: - Manchurian style Cauliflower or Salt and Pepper Cauliflower - Szechuan Potato or Potato with Black Bean Sauce - Spicy Stir Fried String Beans. - Mapo Tofu - Manchow Soup with or without meat YOU'RE PROBABLY GONNA LOVE THIS PLACE After many visits here with dozens of different people, I've noticed first-timers always react the same way when trying one of chef Teng's best dishes. Their eyes open wide, and the head starts slowly shaking side-to-side, and then I hear grunts of mmm! or wow! I mean really, it never fails to be a wonderful surprise for everyone. But don't get me wrong, not everything on the menu is a home run. For example, some of the Asian fusion dishes such as Pad Thai or Mango Chicken are just weird. So even though there are some things to overlook here, such as no lunch service, or the cafeteria style vibe, If you choose some of the chef's best dishes, for sure that flavor bomb is going to hit you right in the mouth, and you'll definitely be coming back here for more. I always do. read more

The food was amazing! The spice level was just right, and everything was fresh, hot, and full of flavor. The service was quick and efficient, even though the place was busy. The ambience is simple .things are served in disposable plate but honestly, when the food is this good, that doesn't matter. The portions were generous, and for this order, we spent $55, which was very fair. Highly recommended! The dishes truly capture the authentic Indo-Chinese flavors, which is rare to find. read more

This is not the kind of place that am used to going, it's set up as a food to go place, but it is a nice restaurant inside, you get in find a seat and look at the menu, once you decide on your choices, you go up to the counter and let them know, then you wait to be served. Oh, I forgot, you now have to go to the front of the restaurant and get your eating materials, they have paper plates, bowls and plastic forks ,knives and spoons, then you bring those to your table, once the food is brought to you (in plastic to-go plates, you eat, the food was actually good, the service was friendly and helpful. The place looks nice and clean. Overall a different experience but good. We will return. read more

What happened to Tengs ! I was there when they started off and fell in love with the husband and wife owners that always have a bright smile and a warm hello with my actual name which took me back a little because I had only ordered there twice at that time ! I had to go away for a while and now I come back to Tengs 3.0 I fell in love with them all over again when I walked in and it was like no Time had went by. I look at their newest menu and everything sounds delicious today in the picture is Manchurian rice (DELICIOUS someone ate a top layer off right before the picture ), chicken pakora app(Sorry these are the only ones that made it on the ride home I tried not to eat any for a picture but my will is weak when it comes to food ) fried chicken, wings app(none eaten ) , Hakka chili wings app(none eaten) . When I say everything tasted delicious I was amazed they have the flavor profiles down with an attractive look and a good amount of good (3 of the dishes are apps the rice is a regular size ) . You can adjust your spice tell them nuclear and guaranteed you'll wonder why you hate yourself so much ! They don't skimp on the sauces which I love and they have never mixed up an order of mine or not put in the included sauces to date which is not something I say about many restaurants! I'm glad to see them growing give them a try I can't wait to order catering a full tray of that delicious rice ! When you go there Tell them Bills YELP said to ask for their hot oil and oh not so spicy Chili's in vinegar! careful they didn't look bad to me until it hit the back of my tongue and then instant regret ! There is a small seating area for dining, it's decorated very nicely and very clean. They are across the street from Tri county in Levittown ! Definitely worth a try ! read more

Teng's has some pretty solid halal Chinese spot and I'm glad that they're located in Nassau County. I will say that there are definitely standouts amongst the dishes which would include the hakka chili chicken and the chicken with mixed vegetables. I would pass on items such as the beef with garlic sauce as it had way too many onions. Basically, solely stick to the best sellers here and you're in for a solid meal. read more

Forgot to take pictures but the food was delicious and we had a great experience picking it up so had to write a review. We did pick up but inside it is nice with a few tables to sit at. Ordering over the phone the person was extremely nice and helpful and it was the same at pick up. We tried the chicken pad Thai, little spice with extra spicy sauce on the side. It was delicious! Perfect blend of flavors and such a large portion! I also loved that there were cooked peppers in it, not all places do that. We also got an order of chicken and broccoli and it was so good, VERY fresh! I loved that all the food tasted so fresh, not super salty. We absolutely loved everything about Tengs from the helpful staff, nice atmosphere inside and delicious food. This is our new favorite spot in town! read more

A five star experience. The food is worthy of it. They make great food! I love this place and it is always busy.

I'm tired of seeing fake hakka cuisine it is not Indian food it is a subculture predominantly Chinese and it's Unique in its own preparation my girlfriend is a chef from Canada who happens to be hakka and too many places are not describing this food and it's culture correctly they're making it as predominantly Indian that is not the case. As a foodie myself I have visited many countries and explored the culture and food and as well the Toronto food scene in particular which is amazing and it's the number one place to get this Hakka cuisine. As for Tengs restaurant this is the only one in New York as far as I'm concerned that is 90% authentic read more

Elevated Chinese Takeout This isn't your average Chinese takeout. You can dine in and all the utensils napkins and cutlery are on the wall opposite the counter. Their General Tso's chicken got some serious umami going on. It's garlic heavy and so delicious. Their string beans are also delicious and perfectly cooked. The scallion pancakes are light and the crispy chewy flaky layers are delightful. Health conscious customers might want to take a napkin and pat down the excess oil off. The sweet soy sauce dip for the pancakes is on point. If you like it spicy I'd ask for hot oil. The hot oil is flavorful and has a level of depth that other Chinese takeouts don't have. Their plain fried chicken wings are finger licking delicious. The batter is light and crunchy. The meat is seasoned quite well with the perfect amount of salt. It comes with a tamarind sauce, which I thoroughly enjoyed dipping the wings in that sweet and slightly sour goodness. I also had their shrimp fried rice, again not your average shrimp fried rice. Everything here is elevated and the prices are reasonable as well. Upon request they'll give you hot oil and yummy little pickled peppers for pleasant palate cleansers. This joint is a family fave and we are hooked. read more

Interesting menu where you order at a counter, pick up your own paper plates and plastic ware and drinks. They bring your order to the table, when done you clean up after yourself. After all that, the food was quite good, We ordered 3 different dishes all good. It's kinda like a takeout with tables to eat at. read more

We happened on this place on a Friday evening on NY. The person behind the counter welcomed to order at the counter and to be seated to be served. The selection was a good variety. The food was fresh, hot, and came out quickly. We had one shrimp fried rice, chicken and broccoli, and sesame chicken. I detected that the oil they use is a little heavy. Not, that the food was oily but the oil is a thick/heavy oil. Anyways, overall pretty good. Also, the place was small but clean. read more

The service is great. The ambience isn't much but had a comfortable feel to it. I've never tried the Hakka region Chinese food and it was good. The restaurant is BYOB. read more

OMG! The best halal chinese i have had in a long time. Everything was so delicious and fresh and came out within 15 minutes. So happy for the Teng family to be part of our long island community. I no longer have to go to brooklyn for halal chinese. Fried wings were delicious, suggest to change order size to 6 like the other ones. Manchurian wings not so favorite of mine but my husband enjoyed. I prefer more on the spicy side but it was giving it a sweet kick thats why but taste was great. Chicken lo mein was amazing loved every single bite of it especially all the different vegetables they had in there Fried rice amazing no words for it. Asked for Broccoli and they had it in there gave it such a good kick. Singaporean rice noodles had a curry taste to it and loaded with egg and shrimp, good different taste it had Manchurian soup tasted like Tangra's hot and sour soup which is my favorite so i loved it with the vinegar pepper on the side. Teng has becoming our second home. Thank you so much for the great food and great service. Lin and tyler were so nice and mike as well. Keep up the great work. AB read more

My husbands favorite restaurant of all time. He is obsessed, I am concerned! This halal Chinese food is the best ever, I can't describe how it's just different but it is. it's super clean.

My favorite Chinese halal place I only tried a hand full of halal Chinese food places because it's hard to find, but this one is definitely the best one, all the food is very good and reasonably priced for the quality of food. I recently tried lemon grass halal Chinese, I had to throw that garbage food out because once you try tengs Chinese you wont like any other Chinese place. Once you try this place no joke everywhere else does not taste good. This is the only place I genuinely really enjoy and everyone is super friendly and nice . Good job on the renovation too! Looks great! read more

Teng's is a little hole in the wall off of Hempstead Turnpike in Levittown. It's got tons of parking, a rarity among places along Hempstead Turnpike. The owner, Mike, is an angel. He and my dad started talking about their mutual friend, whose recommendation brought us into Teng's in the first place. Amongst the first of many pleasant surprises of the evening: Mike and my dad reminisced about working in India... conversing in Hindi!!!! My Indian dad and Mike, Chinese, worked in the same town in India in the late 80s. What a small world. On the Chinese food menu was chicken pakora, not at all what I would have expected to see on a chinese food menu. It was fantastic pakora, one I want to have again as soon as possible. I had the chicken wIth broccoli and a side of brown rice. The food was brought out promptly and tasted wonderful. My dad has the Hakka chili chicken, which definitely had a kick to it but wasn't too overpowering. I liked the sample I had from him. He said it reminded him of India. Teng's was a happy indo-chinese surprise. We had sliced orange and fortune cookies after. Teng's offers free delivery within 5 miles, which unfortunately excludes me from their delivery service. Teng's is also on grubhub and ubereats, two services I have never used but have heard rave reviews on. read more

Can't recall the first time I heard about Teng's but all I know is that when I tried a generous spread of their food, I was sold. This is what Chinese comfort food is all about...but you will rarely catch me in the summer over here. It's all about the cold days in spring (which the island be getting lately) , fall and winter time . I'm crazy for noodles and their hand pulled is DY NOOO MIIITE (if you know the reference you're cool). Service is pretty simple, grab a seat, figure out what you wanna eat , give your order at the counter, keep tab open or pay right there. Next you go and gather your plates , condiments napkins chopsticks forks etc and proceed to be seated and wait. Refreshments are pretty standard , bottles of water , cans of soda and a few surprises here and there (I haven't checked out the surprises yet) . Service is pretty quick, and you get your food nice and hot. The vibe inside is for families and couple, average noise with classic Bollywood tracks played in the background. Need I say more? Noodles were fire, the general Tso (had to try it at least once) was fire and their beef is tender. Listen, anything you order here , will be quite difficult to disappoint. Awesome folks running this spot, it's too legit to quit, I pity da fool who talk bad about this spot because they are mad nice here. Keep this place active , bring your fam, your date, your mistress, your side bae, whoever you want to get intoxicated with some tasty Chinese food. You will walk away as happy buddha rubbing your belly. No pictures here because the suspense is worth it. Peace read more

This is such a cute family business that recently became halal. I love hoe fresh and home cooked everything is. Very rare to find authentic Chinese food thats halal on LI. For appa we got the Vegetable Corn Soup and added egg to it, it was so warm and comforting, perfect for this weather. We also got the Pan Fried Chicken Mo Mo, I didn't try them but my family loved them. The Vegetable Egg Roll could've been better, was a but bland. In terms of mains, the fried rice was so good, you could tell it was made fresh, and not overly salty or greasy like other places. My brother and sister had the General Tso's Chicken which they said was good. I got the Hakka Chilli Paneer and I was blown away. I'm not a fan of chicken unless it's homemade so the paneer was an excellent substitute, I liked it better than tofu. The Haka Chilli was nice and spicy and flavorful. read more

I was excited to hear of a new Chinese restaurant with unique food opening nearby, so I ordered several dishes for delivery tonight. I researched Hakka cuisine and learned it's supposed to be umami, fragrant and spicy. Sadly the food I received had none of these qualities. As other Yelpers have noted, portions are small and prices high relative to other Chinese establishments in the area. That would be fine if the food was really great, but (at least in my case) it wasn't. Mango shrimp, a pricey chef special, is described as spicy on the menu but mine was overly sweet and mushy with no hint of spice at all. Shrimp were large but tasteless and black veins hadn't been removed ewww not appetizing. Ditto for the Tum Kha soup, a tiny bland cup for $5.00. Spring rolls were oily. Sorry not a fan. read more

I am not exaggerating when I say tengs is the best restaurant on Long Island. Tengs offers Halal Hakka style Chinese food that I have never found in any other restaurant, halal or not. My husband and I order family platters from here weekly that we use to meal prep our dinners each week. Their Hakka chili beef has to be the best thing on their menu, and possibly in this world. We also love their Hakka chili, shrimp, fried rice's, Broccoli with beef for some veggies, and pretty much everything else. The family that owns this place is truly a gem. They are always so kind to all their patrons. It's my highlight of the week going to see them and getting my favorite food in this world.
