I love chinese food

by Good Eatins

nice place to eat with ur family. i love the shrimp dumplings. but i feel i could eat the same with take out. the atmosphere is really nice. that's what separates it from the fast food Chinese.

Mmm Scallion Pancakes!

by ninagizzy

The food here is great! They're scallion pancakes are a must have! And unlike other Chinese restaurants their general tso's chicken has big chunks of chicken instead of just breading.

I must admit when I do dine there I feel a bit rushed by the servers but if you just ignore them and focus on your delicious food in front of you it'll be good experience haha

not for those who like polite service

by sweetgeorgie

I will admit, we go often. the food is good. However, the service is HORRIBLE. I have eaten there about 40 times and not once has a waitperson ever come over to me and said 'how is everything or do you need anything?" They want you in and out. They get frustrated if you ask for extra duck sauce or more tea. They stand over you and basically throw the food when it comes....so why do we still go? the food is good, that simple. Yes, they are a little pricey too. But in the area, they are pretty much the most consistent quality. They know they are rude, but they know they get a way with it. So go for the food- not for the atmosphere or service and you will be content. If you need a smile or polite waiter to enjoy your meal - well folks, you are out of luck

  • Pros: the food
  • Cons: the waitstaff, the waitstaff, and the management!

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!

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.

Jacked up prices!

by jackryan

This place jacked up their prices after they redid the rest. Some dishes as much as 4 bucks. The portions aren't the best and are heavily in salt. I order take out from time to time but they treat you like viet cong sometimes and are very abrasive.

  • Cons: You leave NOW

Horrible, Horrible Food

by frische

Honestly, the worst food I've had in my life. They are right around the corner from me and I have tried them on a few occasions over the span of many years. On each of those occasions I am reminded of the poor quality food they serve. Recently I had a delivery for dinner and have now officially sworn off China Fun for good. I don't care how cheap or convenient they are...nothing edible should taste that bad.

Awesome!

by gracev

We visited China Fun on a recent trip to NY & loved it. Great value for familes.

Service was prompt & efficient. Food was delicious. We have 3 kids & usually one is disappointed--but not this time--it was great!

The waitress suggested that our kids share an order of fried rice--which we appreciated--its no fun to have a ton of left-overs when you are traveling.

We loved this place so much we actually ate here twice in one week!

  • Pros: Great food/prices
