  • With reviews varying widely, I had to find out for myself. Best Chinese on LI - no. But, maybe the best Cantonese in Nassau. Best shrimp with lobster sauce I ever ate. Very good egg drop soup. Excellent chicken with mushrooms. Poor oily scallion cakes which I think is not a Cantonese dish. Service is good, but I don't think they would have served yesterday's scallion cakes to an asian person. Went twice, will go again.

    The BEST Chinese restaurant on Long Island. You are transported to a wonderful dining experience from when You enter the restaurant. I suggest trying Everything that looks interesting to You on the menu... Leftovers were wonderful the next day :)

    A Garden City staple - Peking duck is the best, house special dishes all merit trial orders and, if you know them, the Eric & Winnie show is entertaining!

  • These guys are still in business? Went straight downhill and when I found a piece of glass in the takeout, and all I got was an "I'm sorry", that was it. Go up the road to Jade King, that's the real deal. This is just beautiful decor in a basement setting, that's all. How the HELL did glass end up in a takeout dish?

  • If this is the best LI has to offer, I'll pass--there's too many choices to be treated so impersonal and cold and the food is inconsistent--sometimes good sometimes so loaded down with sauce it's a waste of money. I ate lunch at the Jolly Fisherman in Roslyn today and the wonderful red snapper was made even better by the positive, smiling and patient server. I'm paying not only for the food but also to be treated well--that's never how I've bee
