In Short – China Fun specializes in huge, meal-sized bowls of soup, like Cantonese wonton and roasted duck noodle. The menu also includes roast pork, duck and chicken, barbecued honey spare ribs, sushi, a variety of dumplings and dim sum treats like scallion pancakes and roast pork buns. Big portions for small prices attract locals to the casual space for lunch and dinner, and the counter does brisk business in takeout.

BEST DUMPLINGS ANYWHERE!
by awu123
This place has the best dumplings anywhere hands down. I recently was there and they had the soup dumplings that are so prevalent down in Chinatown. But sorry, I gotta say that CF is the winner. Sorry Joe's Shanghai. CF's dumplings are not as greasy and offers an explosion of clean flavored soup in their soup dumplings. When you press your lips together after the finish, there's no sticky after feel....the best!
- Pros: Great Food
- Cons: None

poor service, bad food, expensive and with no hygiene standards.
by mat624
I just came back from China Fun and I would not recommend it to anyone.
Firstly, as it is typical of take-away, the food is over seasoned and too salty, I suspect this is the result of using MSG: the Kung-Pao chicken was the worst I ever had in my life.
Secondly the hygiene: while we were waiting for our food one of the waiters took off his shoes and put them on the desk near the chopsticks, how disgusting. I would have assumed that the manager would have shouted at him right away, but no!.. at one point they were looking at and touching the shoe at the same time, probably because it had a broken sole.
Lastly, it is quite expensive for this kind of food and the horrible service.
Overall I wish I had gone to Panda Express, which is much better, cleaner, and it costs a third of the price. Alas there are no Panda Express left in NYC.
