I beg of you. Do not eat here. Every thing on my plate was inedible. Anything else in the food court is a better choice. The street vendor selling gyros is also very good.
I'm not sure why everyone is coming down on this place so hard. It seemed like every other Chinese restaurant I've been forced to experience. I ordered a vegetarian tofu dish and found it on par with the average Chinese restaurant fare. I mean, it wasn't amazing, but it certainly wasn't the worst I've ever had.
It's a similar concept to the Panda Express but with a different name and a few different choices.
The food is greasy and not particularly flavorful, and for $12, you get a noodle/rice + 2 side combo meal. I tried the veggie lo mein (bland but filling by volume), the tofu (fried well but the sauce could've used some garlic and salt, and the sesame chicken (not bad).
Overall, I can make better at home, so I'm leaving this with just two stars… it left me full, a little poorer than average, and unsatisfied.
The Chinese food at "Feng Shui" is pretty much as bad as they get! The only reason why this place stays in business is because it's located inside a historic tourist attraction with thousands of busy daily commuters.
When you're walking around the food court at the Grand Station Terminal in New York, you have tons of options to choose from. You have a variety of ethnic options and your head goes crazy on what you're in the mood for. I came to the Grand Station Terminal with 3 other friends and we decided to go our separate ways for lunch. I was kind of skeptical on the other options, so I decided to play it safe with Chinese food. Since all the prices at the Grand Station Terminal is jacked up, I paid a premium price for a below average portion lunch. As for the flavor of the food; it was bland, salty and soggy. How can you cook broccoli beef, sweet & sour chicken & noodles incorrectly? This place can!
If I had to defend "Feng Shui" in anyway, I have to point out that practically all the food courts at the Grand Station Terminal was lousy. As I've mentioned, my other three friends ordered something different from three other food courts and they were ALL dissatisfied with their meal. I would recommend visiting the Grand Station Terminal; but if you're hungry, I suggest getting a meal before or after you visit this historic New York landmark.
We ordered Chinese food here because we were craving it and starving. My boyfriend devoured his and it was no problem for him (maybe because he was starving and would honestly eat anything).
I ate from his but we still had another container of food left that was mainly untouched. I was honestly not hungry and we decided to give the food along with chopsticks, napkins and utensils to the homeless person that was seated close to us.
I usually bring the leftovers home but we were going to a museum right after that did not allow food. Instead of throwing out the food and being wasteful, we wanted to instead perform a kind gesture.

A random occurrence happened by the cash register where we ordered the food… Out of nowhere I had a sharp cut on my hand… I kept wondering what it was or where it came from and perhaps they did not clean their register table area well. After close examination, I saw there was a tiny sliver of glass that was stuck to my hand, causing it pain throughout the day (even under a band aide). At first, I thought it was just a tiny sliver of my skin that was crystallized, but the next day, when I tried to rip/pull it off, I found out that it was actually a tiny glass sliver… Ouch!
I know I'm old, because the first thing I thought of while eating my lunch from here was that old SNL sketch Coffee Talk with Linda Richman, which featured Mike Meyers in drag. One of its recurring jokes was that Linda would get verklempt (choked up to you goyim) take a deep breath, and say stuff like I'm feeling verklempt! Talk amongst yourselves. Here's a topic. Rhode Island is neither a road, nor an island, discuss. Everybody would laugh, and the sketch would continue.
And the first thing I thought of after trying my Thai Red Curry, was that it doesn't taste Thai, the sauce was orange, and it didn't really taste like curry either. More like Chinese breaded chicken in strange orange sauce. But obviously that wouldn't sell.
Add in the fact that it cost $9.53, and I'm pretty sure I won't be going back.
Sure the employees were nice, and they offered veggie lo-mein instead of rice with your meat. But it was generic steam table food, and pretty unimpressive.
