It is very good chinese food. I only gave 4 stars for the simple fact that i only had soups and appetizers but i think this will go up to 5 real soon. Also very affordable and great chinese food.

This place is the WORST. I waited 2 hours for my order and they cancelled it without even notifying me. Don’t bother with this shit hole. Go elsewhere!

Placed a pick-up order here last night for five adults. Was ready when we arrived within 15 – 20 minutes, as promised. Staff was friendly and went over the order to make sure all items were there. Received free sesame chicken dish since the total cost was over $ 40.00 I am a big fan of Chinese food, as indicated by the number of reviews of such establishments. IMO Eastern is above average. My wife, who is very particular was very happy with her selection, plain lo men and steamed dumplings. I was surprised by her reaction, because usually she always seems to find something wrong. She exclaimed several times between mouthfuls how flavorful all the dishes were. We shall return!

ordered on seamless. Delivery took a while but there was a winter storm the day before. Egg roll arrived soggy and they forgot to add the hot sauce and mustard. I double checked and it was indicated on the receipt from seamless. Called up the restaurant the gentleman did offer to send the delivery guy back at a later time but I refused simply because my food would be cold by the time he arrived.

Cheap and greasy Chinese food. Sometimes you’re in the mood for that. I know I am. Good combination meals. Boneless spare ribs and sweet/sour chicken are exactly what you expect from a place like this.

the food is not too bad(i used to order for delivery) but the woman on the phone taking the orders is hyper rood and she does not hezitate to to start screaming to the ordering client. Happened to me tonight(second time within one month, before xmas had insolted my girlfriend because she(the emploee messed up the order))when i darred not to asnwer her question wanting to make sure she had my adress right. Sorry but respect to the paying and repeated customer is a must. never again

I actually liked the food here enough to go back again and deal with the wretched attitude of the girl behind the counter. Big mistake, she was even more horrible the second time, after my order was wrong. Run screaming horror movie status from this place to one of the other hundreds in the neighborhood. You will certainly have a better experience everywhere else.

It’s a store front Chinese place. Not even fully authentic. We live in NYC. There are a whole lot of «sections» in NY where you can get that. But for a storefront place, this place ain’t bad for the average General Tso’s or beef & broccoli. Friendly staff that gets you your food quickly. Where else can you get a whole fried chicken with steamed broccoli. The diner has funny ideas about what fried chicken looks like. And lets not mention McDonald’s processed mystery meat concoction. Be bold, and be satisfied.

Not the best of places. Food is ok and you get what you pay for. The staff is nice and friendly. Could do a better job at keeping it clean.

I had once eaten here a fairly long time ago and vaguely remembered some sort of stomach problem, but, since I occasionally find a cheap, off-the-beaten-path Chinese restaurant that DOESN’T make me ill, I weighed the risk and jumped headlong to danger anyway, thinking that maybe gastric lightning wouldn’t strike twice. Also, since this is a take-out place with a half-dozen, or so, tables to dine-in, I figured that, logically, eating-in might mitigate on any desire on the part of management, i.e., the cook, to take any chances on grossing me out. Plus, all workers there seemed like family, also mitigating in my favor. W-R-O-N-G !!! Shrimp in garlic sauce is my benchmark in comparing Chinese restaurants. I thrust forward with my terrible swift fork at the first shrimp, which was large, plump and tender — and smelly. Yes, it had that fish smell that we get warned about. But, stupid me, after sinking my teeth in, I shrugged and swallowed anyway — and thoughts of the cook’s backward shuffle to a big bag with big eyes fixed on me got me to thinking that maybe my being poisoned here twice in a row was no accident. The second shrimp was tender and sweet but the third was undersized and tasteless. Conclusion: Taking one from Group A, Group B and Group C in this place means the cook takes one each from the Good, the Bad & the Ugly batches.
