I like the quick service they offer. This restaurant turned into my favorite Chinese take out place. The food tastes great. They do not use MSG and this makes a huge difference.
They cook with fresh vegetables. When I order the vegetable mei fun with curry, I can taste every vegetable. The broccoli with garlic sauce (with white rice) tastes superb! No other place can match the taste.
The prices remain fair. Other places hike up the prices if the orders do not appear on the menu. This place costs less than other take out places.
A small place, many locals come here due to the location. I like the fact that the girl remembers me and knows what I usually order.
Cash only when you order at the counter.
Going by just the title alone, one might be surprised to learn this place is actually a Chinese restaurant. Not just any Chinese restaurant, but a Chinese takeout joint. And not just any Chinese takeout joint, but a HALAL Chinese takeout joint. Is the Halal food legit? Maybe. Does the place seem like the dime-a-dozen Chinese takeout places in the hood? Yes x 10.
The place is not as dingy as some of the other Chinese places, but large enough to host about 3-4 tables. During the hot summer months it's so muggy in there, I wonder how the cooks can handle the kitchen heat let alone the humidity. The hole in the wall feel is evident, but that is to be expected with most places like this.
After some talks with the folks behind the counter, I learned the manager is of the Muslim faith. Though the word Halal will have many thinking of gyro meats, chicken and rice with white/hot sauce off the carts, all one will find here is the usual Chinese takeout suspects: General Tso's, egg rolls, fried rice, etc. There is no pork on the menu obviously and all meat (chicken, beef) is preceded by a "Halal" notation on the menu.
With all of the talk of the food, how was it? On just a Chinese-American takeout scale, the place is mediocre. There hasn't been one outstanding dish I've sampled that would warrant another visit here. Tried a combo of things: General Tso's, curry chicken, beef with broccoli, and some mixed vegetable lo mein and it was no dice on all of them. Bland, barely seasoned, and about on par with the rest of the Sunnyside Chinese joints. The prices aren't bad, but for $6.95 for a medium order of chow fun, I'd much rather the Halal carts in Jackson Heights.
