  1. Any dim sum place that serves my green fried sweet balls filled with black sesame paste is a winner in my book.  So this review is for dim sum only.  Fast, efficient,good, the usual staples, the wait was kind of ridiculous but its the only dim sum place for a few miles so I get that part.  Would go back and go earlier!

  2. typical chinese restaurant.  came here for dinner with a group of 12 friends.  it was only 630p so there were a lot of tables open.  but by the time we left, the place was full.  food was good.  service was good.  i'd come back

  3. Typical Chinese restaurant in Brooklyn and elsewhere in NYC.  There isn't much that separates this particular place from anything else nearby.  The best thing about this one is the food is good enough so that you won't have to go all the way to 8th Ave and wait 3 hours for a table.  

    Just as any restaurant, try to avoid the dinner rush times because there are a lot of large family gatherings here during the weekend nights.  You can find all the usual offerings for around the same prices.  It's almost like there is one large board of directors for all the Chinese banquet restaurants…

  4. Good Day is the latest iteration of this dim sum and Cantonese restaurant.  Once famed as World Tong when Joe Ng was the dim sum chef, it has long passed the days when it was worthy of a lengthy trek, but it remains a good local option for dim sum.

    Mid-size dining area, mostly large tables for groups or communal dining.  Dim sum on weekends gets busy by 10 AM, with a wait.  Food is brought around on carts, occasionally by tray for specialty and more limited items.  Their weekend selection includes more variety, and less commonly available dishes, although not as extensive as Golden Bay on 86th Street.  Quality is overall good, seldom exceptional.  Black bean spare ribs on rice noodle is a highlight.

    Reasonably good, well-priced dim sum, better than what Bay Parkway restaurants have to offer, but not better than what can be had on 86th Street or Sunset Park.  Everything can be ordered to-go, and they have decent roast meats also.

  5. Always come here for dinner. They usually give us oranges, coconut pudding (super yummy), and tong Sui if they haven't given it all out yet. The dinner food is usually pretty tasty. I went here for lunch for dimsum today and I was pretty disappointed with the service. The ladies with the cart is always super rude. I said one sentence "what are you stamping for?" She got really offended saying I'm obviously stamping (that) food. What? You think I'm ripping you off? – I really didn't care for that couple of dollars… I literally ask one question and they got so offended like this is their life right here, over one platter of food. It actually happened a couple of times during one meal… They really need to change their attitude.

    The waitress and waiters on the other hand had really great customer service! Always getting my tea and other requests. Just disappointed that I had such an unpleasant meal when the cart ladies act like they want to fight me over a couple bucks.

    The food was alright. Nothing special, kind of bland really. I wouldn't go to this place for yumcha because I know better places with better food. I like their dinner dishes here though. I would come here for dinner platters only.

  6. Good day = Sunday. This place has been our go-to Sunday family dim sum joint for the past few years. Like all other dim sum restaurants, this place gets incredibly packed on a Sunday. It doesn't help that Good Day is a tad bit smaller than other dim sum parlors so the wait can be even longer. Nevertheless, we come here earlier to try to nab a table.

    They have all the basics dim sum fares that you can find in other places. Their standouts include:
    Salted chicken feet: Good chilled appetizer
    Spare ribs cheong fun: if you like spare ribs and if you like cheong fun, you would like this. The cheong fun doesn't puff up from the sauce like other places so that's a big plus.

    They also have an additional menu where you can order additional vegetable, noodles, and/or rice dishes made to order. It can get a bit greasy but what can you expect, it's dim sum.

    I believe the highlight here would be their roast meats. If you ever make a visit here, don't forget to order either their roast pork or salted chicken. Both are delicious and incredibly affordable.

    All in all, Good Day is pretty good place to get your dim sum on. While it may not be the most comfortable (but comfort generally isn't your concern when getting dim sum on a Sunday), it is a great place to enjoy all your favorite dim sum needs.

  7. An ok place to come for food. I ordered take out food and they were ok. Nothing great or nothing bad. An-Ok…

  8. It's been over a decade since I dined at this restaurant. I believe that the restaurant changed owners and staff over the years since I'm pretty such it used to be called something else.

    Came here Sunday at around 6:30pm for dinner.  The restaurant was still empty.  By 7:15pm, it was a full house.

    Smoked sweeten pork belly – This is essentially fried pork belly marinated in a sweet sauce.  It was an interesting way to eat pork belly.  Each slice was thinly cut.  I liked it, but some people in my table didn't.

    Sautéed fried tofu and fish – Presented to us in a large clay pot. Tofu was firm on the outside, and had silky soft tofu in the inside.  Fish pieces were ok.

    Braised vegetables in dried scallop and squid broth – was okay.  Nothing too special.  The dried scallop and squid made the whole thing a little fishy tasting.

    Garlic stir fried mixed vegetables –  cauliflower, wood mushroom, and carrots stir fry with a lot of garlic.  Very strong garlic flavor, which I liked.

    Whole Chicken – We got the chicken with the least amount of seasoning, I guess you can think of it as original flavor.  The meat was smooth and tender.  Not overcooked.

    Fried pork chops in sweet sauce – totally recommended.  I have a major sweet tooth.  This dish was cooked perfectly.  The pork chops were crispy, but not dry.  The cut of meat was mostly lean with a little fat.  I love the sweet sauce.  Goes perfectly with rice!

    Desserts are complimentary!
    Red bean sweet soup was good, not too sweet.  There wasn't much beans in the soup, mostly water.

    Orange slices and coconut jello –  The coconut jello was delicious!  They do not skimp on the coconut milk nor do they water it down.  I ate almost 1/3 of the jello!

    Overall it was a very good meal.  The prices were good.  Six dishes fed 8 people.
