While the woman was friendly when I called….and the delivery man was nice….I don't see myself ordering again, since their current prices are no longer what I'd consider to be "cheap" Chinese take out, and the quality is poor even at the prices they used to offer.
Completely understandable to raise rates as a neighborhood grows/food costs increase. But they now charge the same that I'd pay for MUCH better food in midtown, or from their local Astoria/LIC competitors (my order of steamed dumplings and crispy beef was $20…which included a website discount….and a generous tip).
I only made it through 2.5 of the dumplings, because they were super thick-skinned, and the meat inside very mushy. They looked and tasted "gray". Even the scallion dipping sauce they provided couldn't save them. Waste of $5.
Crispy Beef had nearly no crisp, and was super chewy (I've had this dish delivered multiple times from various places that used the same lower quality of meat, but the morsels were tender and still crisp when the take out container was opened).
The steamed broccoli wasn't fully drained, and the water made the dish even more soggy…and ran off some of the sauce. I gnawed through as much as I could. But still threw some away.
So I was still hungry, and had wasted food, after spending $20. That's not cheap chinese take out, y'all.
A for customer service. C- for product.
Much better Chinese delivery, for equal or less money, sprinkled throughout this delivery zone.
This bad boy is great for delivery. They have really tasty boneless spare ribs and singapore noodles. The house special soup is flavorful. They are relatively quick on delivery and pretty cheap.
I regularly come here because it's nearby and it's pretty much like any other greasy Chinese joint. The sesame chicken is my favorite and it's spot on with what you expect sesame chicken to taste like. I've also gotten boneless spare ribs here, which is basically pork marinated in barbeque sauce, which is very tasty. The only thing that I've ever gotten here that I did not like was the beef chow fun, which I got for the thick noodles, but when I got it, it was not flavorful enough. So I'll be sticking with my favorites when I come back for my monthly visit.
Prices are reasonable – about $7 for dinner and service is fast.
For a Chinese fast food place, it's pretty good. I'm comparing Sun Wah to the ones in East Elmhurst, not the authentic restaurants in Flushing. I've only tried the hot and sour soup as well as the pepper steak with onions. The soup was full of mushrooms, I think it had bamboo shoots and egg with green onions and chilies. It was really flavorful and both of us were surprised by the taste of the soup. I normally don't order soup at a fast food restaurant since it usually tastes like water with oyster sauce/soy sauce. The pepper steak had huge pieces of peppers, onions and tender pieces of beef.
If you're craving Chinese food (fast food), not a bad option. It's quick and cheap. Portions are big.

Cheap and delicious. The portions are very large!
I try not to eat a lot of fast food chinese food, but you have to satisfy the ravings you occasionally get for it.
Cooked quickly and comes with a soda if your order is more than $10.
and they have an A rating.
