This place is just…okay. When I don't have any cash (and, therefore, unable to order from other, closer Chinese take-out places), I'll order from here since they take credit cards. I've gone to eat here a few times in the past and the service has always been very good when I choose to eat in.
The past few times that I have ordered from here, though, the food has been pretty unremarkable. Their general tso's tofu left a lot to be desired and was way too breaded and heavy for me. Their portions are quite large and delivery times are quite quick. I suppose they've been having a string of lackluster nights and I'd be willing to give them a try again.
Average Chinese food with a great delivery range, good prices and solid portion size. I would definitely drunkly order from this place again at midnight – that kind of place.
After a busy Saturday walking, exploring, and drinking we had a hankering for some easy and close take out, cue Chinese Musician.
I don't know about other households but we tend to over order Chinese food and eat the left overs later. We called and placed an order and it was ready in 15 minutes, super fast.
Egg Drop Won Ton Soup – Decent, nothing to write home about but your standard expectation.
Pork Dumplings (8) – Again, pretty good but standard Chinese takeout fare.
General Tso's Dinner Combination – The General Tso's itself was not as spicy as I would have liked it to be and it could have used to be less sticky/syrupy!
Sesame Chicken Dinner Combination – The Sesame Chicken was decent but kind of bland, to me it was basically the General Tso's without any spice and add some sesame seeds.
Now onto the stars of the show!!!
Pork Fried Rice – I know right, how good can it be! Well…the best fast food pork fried rice I've ever had. A tremendous amount of flavor and actually pork pieces that taste like pork.
Egg Roll – Again, most egg rolls to me all taste like they come from the same generic company but these… O M G! The cabbage in them actually had texture and there a ton of flavor. The best fast food egg rolls I've ever had.
Basically, get the Pork Fried Rice and a few Egg Rolls, you won't be disappointed!!
I have chinese food issues in NY, especially in non-Chinatown areas. How am I supposed to get my fix? Well, I've found a place that works pretty well. It's the best Chinese I've found in the area anyway.
I got the orange chicken and my boyfriend got beef and broccoli, but were delicious as they should be. Not amazing or anything but definitely delicious. Their white rice was awesome…like I made it at home myself awesome. It was hard, wasn't too dry, wasn't too crumbling, but just right. The price is right too.
TLDR: If you're looking for good chinese in the Williamsburg area, check out this place.
