    Don't recommend to go this place. Food is very bad provide bad food, the service is bad as well special the owner/Manager he doesn't care customer's complain . They know they make the mistake and they will keep fighting insist nothing wrong. 食物有問題 也不承認錯誤 態度極差 我們食了這麼多年的甜酸咕嚕肉. 只有只有這間的咕嚕肉是只有肥膏,沒有肉的.當我們向店家反映時. 他們只繼續堅持地說' ''係咁㗎啦 '' ,他們做的咕嚕肉.只有這樣的. 他們的態度極差,惡劣. 還沒有悔意, 繼續向客人發脾氣.

    Salt and pepper squids 2/5 stars

    My family decided to give this new neighborhood addition some business on New Year's Day. It was a risky move given that there weren't that many reviews yet, but we took the plunge. Of the six or seven dishes that we ordered, only two missed the mark, which isn't awful but definitely not what we were hoping for. Sadly, the two that were lacking are my favorite Chinese dishes! Golden Double Egg Fried Rice (5/5) - Good wok hei (wok flavor/power). Each piece of rice was individually coated. The seasoning was good. Roasted Squab (4/5) - I don't eat squab, but my family members said the squab at Shun Deck restaurant on 86th St tastes better even though the pieces are smaller over there. We had to wait 30 minutes for this to be served because they ran out of them last night and still needed to do prep work for them. We were notified of this upon placing the order, so that was much appreciated. A perk is it comes with deep-fried prawn crackers. Salt and pepper squid (2/5) - The squid was very chewy/ didn't taste good quality or fresh. The batter also separated from the squid pieces. Salt and pepper seasoning was ok but could've been better. Not many pieces given. I am obsessed with the salt and pepper squid from Golden Palace (a few blocks from Uncle Foon's) so that's the standard I expect. Walnut Shrimp Balls (0/5) - Honestly, I don't even know where to start with this dish. First, the broccoli had some brownish color, so I don't think the broccoli was in condition when they cooked it. The walnuts were sooooo stale and didn't have that candied exterior. The shrimps were passable, but they were just topped with globs of mayo. The mayo was not mixed into the dish, as it usually is at other places. I looked at some other customers' photos of this dish, and theirs had the mayo mixed into it. I'm not sure how Uncle Foon's managed to screw up this classic Chinese dish, but they did. Peking pork chop (5/5) - I usually really like the sauce and the thin pork chops, but there would usually be a lot of fatty pieces that I disliked. Uncle Foon's was mostly thin pieces with no fat, so I was a big fan of the dish here. My party also ordered razor clams and a stir-fried fish dish. The fish dish was not bad. Small interior but could fit 3 large parties at once. Don't expect a fancy setting here.

    Food and service both are well served and taking care. We keep bringing friends here for taste of good food, good service and a clean environment.

    Definitely a welcome addition to this part of the neighborhood, which doesn't have too many smaller Chinese restaurants. My family decided to check them out for dinner, and we were quite impressed with the quality and flavors of food for a newly opened restaurant. Prices tend to be a little bit on the higher end. Squab here was really good - perfectly fried, well seasoned, and piping hot! Most of the other dishes we got were also tasty & well portioned. Unfortunately we didn't love the fish maw soup (lacked a bit of seasoning) and the beef brisket casserole. The restaurant has a good number of tables despite being a smaller restaurant. It definitely gets LOUD in here, with the smaller space and acoustics. Service appears to be fairly experienced, maybe a little nervous still. Parking is doable around this area.

    First time eating here, very friendly wait staffs and the food is amazing. Will be back for sure.  Henri

    Steamed fish

    My party of 14 came here to celebrate the lunar new year. We were seated in a basement room. The room was comfortable and had a tv and Karaoke system. The food was okay. It was a bit too greasy for my taste, even the veggies were greasy! The grease made the food very heavy. I ate very little but felt uncomfortably full. The eel was presented well, although the sauce overpowered the taste of the eel itself. The steamed fish was my favorite - light, fresh and tasty!

    A bunch of us went back again. This time it was our dear friend Ray's bday. Service was excellent and the food was even better than the first time. Can't wait to go back.

    A new restaurant recently just open up. So we decided to give it a try. Service is good. Food is just okay. Order Clam with black bean sauce which was good and fresh. Noodles is not bad. The rest of the food is just ok. The sweet & sour spare ribs, the meat has no taste, and it doesn't taste fresh. Seem like the meat been fried for sometime and just sat there.. Doesn't have the crisp to it.. Overall everything is just ok.

    The food is really good (albeit a tad salty for the beef with pineapple chunks), the service is excellent as wait staff is attention-oriented, and ambiance is fine with no frills, bells nor whistles.

    Very solid Chinese food spot. We picked up food to go and the restaurant looked very clean and…read morespacious though no one was eating in. The food was very fairly priced and the portions were huge. We got the pork soup dumplings, pork fried rice, szechuan chicken (which came with white rice), and pad see ew (which though not listed comes with pork, chicken, and shrimp). Everything was solid, but our favorite was the fried rice which had a ton of flavor. I liked the veggies that were in the chicken dish but there were just way too many of them compared to the chicken and I wasn't crazy about the sauce. The pad see ew wasn't made the traditional way I've had it with soy sauce and oyster sauce. It had some sort of orange sauce that tasted closer to a sweet and sour. It wasn't bad it was just not what I was hoping for. The soup dumplings were solid, no complaints there. And the fried rice was great, lots of flavor. Overall, I liked this place especially for the price but I'd probably order different things if I went back.

Get the "20 mini dumplings + drink of your choice". Seriously, I'm getting hungry just writing this review. Food: I ordered the 20 mini dumplings and drink combo, substituting the soda option for taro boba (+$4), totaling around $18 after tax! The dumplings are mini, but they are filled with so much flavor it's unbelievable. They each have a bit of soup in them that is so flavorful and not salty. There is also a slight bit of crispiness on the outside of each dumpling before the inside just melts in your mouth. It's unbelievably good. The taro boba is also well done. It's not too sweet, and the boba pearls are a unique level of like not that chewy and feel almost like popping boba?! Service: Friendly service! My friend and I did to-go, but the staff were all quite friendly. There is also a kiosk to order from if in a rush. Ambiance: It's a very clean restaurant and spacious. However, since there were so many people waiting for the viral item, we formed essentially a crowd outside the steps. The wait took about half an hour, and then my friend and I walked just down a couple of blocks to the Brooklyn Heights promenade, which has the most stunning view of the Manhattan skyline.

We were skeptical about this restaurant but it exceeded our expectations and we can't wait to return! We came on a weekend for dinner so it was busy! We were able to snag a table and seeing how busy this place was, we knew it was going to be good! We had the pork XLB, chicken feet, pork & vegetable wontons with spicy peanut sauce, noodles with scallion and peanut butter sauce, beef lo mein and the beef ribs. Everything was delicious! The highlights of our meal were the pork XLB and the beef ribs. The pork XLB were made fresh to order and they were flavorful and juicy! Definitely on my list of best XLB I have ever had. The beef ribs were also delicious! They torched it table side which definitely added a nice touch! Considering how busy they were, the service was immaculate. They were also very attentive to details since we had a kid with allergies. We will definitely be coming back soon. This place is also right next to the Court Street train station which makes it very convenient to get to!
