He lauds the impressive size of the portions and the delicious vegetarian alternatives like vegetarian chicken with General Tso sauce and savory scallion pancakes.
Another customer, Jia-Lian L., enjoyed their dinner special sesame chicken but noticed some inconsistency in the portion sizes, indicating that the restaurant might be finding the balance between quality and cost. However, the fried rice received praise, featuring scallions and a commendable flavor profile that makes it a favorite among diners.

I was in the mood for Chinese food so I came here, saw the reviews which were pretty low but I decided to give it a chance. I ordered dinner special sesame chicken with hot oil on side and fried rice and egg roll. It was around 10 bucks. They provided quite a lot of chicken so I was stuffed after it. The fried rice had scallions and had a decent amount of flavor. Definitely a fan of the fried rice. The sesame chicken has good flavor but a good portion of the chicken was mostly dough. Because of this i would like to give it a 3.5 but I'll round it to 4. I believe they try to save some money by providing less chicken in each bite. Some of the pieces had a lot of chicken and those were better by far.

coming to bat for my local takeout spot, lunch special portions are big and well priced, general tso's chicken super crispy and i can't stop ordering the spare ribs. Staff seemed stressed most of the time but still super friendly and sweet. Deserves more than 3 stars on yelp

MUST EAT HERE IF YOU ARE VEGAN! Yummy Chinese is the hands down best take out in all of New York for a Vegan! They are fast, consistent, delicious and have a hefty vegan menu. It is my number one go to delivery and I eat there almost 2-3 times a week on average and I am always happy! I always order the Vegetarian Chicken with General Tso sauce, vegetarian beef with broccoli and the scallion pancakes. Lately I have added a spicy Vegetarian Chicken Mei Fun dish and I have meals for days! Seriously one meal is at least 2-3 normal peoples portions. You can feed an entire vegan group on 60$. And it's incredible! I'm their biggest fan.

The food is typical or better then the average Chinese delivery. I've enjoyed every dish I've tried including The Happy Family, though it says it contains lobster, it didn't. The dish was good, but overpriced considering there were only two shrimp and no lobster. The other items I have tried have been fairly priced. I do appreciate the fact that they follow the special instructions, which is very uncommon for many seamless restaurants. In addition the delivery is always on time or early.

This is my go-to takeout spot! Some of my favorite orders are their shrimp fried rice, bean curd with garlic sauce (the tofu in this dish is SO good), and spicy sesame noodles. If you like your food to have a little kick I recommend asking for their spicy chili oil, it tastes great with all of their dishes. I'm so happy to be living near this restaurant!
