Astonishing Speed
I've been ordering takeout from Chelsea Cottage for 20 years. Good food, great value. When I have friends over, I often bet them how long the wait for the takeout will be. I bet 7 minutes from hanging up my phone to the door buzzing with the delivery. I almost always win my bet. I only live a block away but 7 minutes! How do they do it? One word of caution: the service in the restaurant on a weekday lunch is nasty. The owners, on the other hand, are wonderful.

Slow service
I ordered an hour and a half ago and still no food. I asked the man on the phone where my food was and he told me to be patient. I literally live 4 blocks away and have ordered from here a million times. Not any more! Slow service!

old fashioned neighborhood joint
The food here is fresh and good. It is old style chinese food. They have very good fried tofu, I usually order the make your own dish with four items, and ask for extra ginger. The people here work really hard day after day and the food is tasty and a good value. Not trendy, just good, local food. They good improve the vegetables they put in dishes but after 20 years of coming here I guess you could say I like the food!

searching for good chinese
I woke up this a.m.hankering for Dim-Sum. I thought I would try out a rest. in my new neighb. I was born in NYC and have recently moved to Chelsea. I have always boasted about NYC food @ reasonable prices. However, I have been so dissappointed w/ the Chelsea area. It is bad food /bad prices. I work in Chinatown area so I am somewhat familiar w/ "real"/flavorful Chinese. Well unfortunately,I didn't find it at CC's. Pro: Prompt, & an added surprise was two black tea tea bags. Good size jumbo shrimp Cons: Shrimp w/ Brocolli dish had a fishy smell /too little sauce and bland flavor. Brocolli w/ shrimp sauce was...lets just say I finally decided to eat it like a soup; specifically egg drop soup w/shrimp. There was no lobster sauce and bland tast. General Tso's chicken - looked like it was made with whatever ingredients where at hand (like pieces of cabbage?green peppers?)There where no red chili peppers; none, nada, zip. This was actually my fav cause the chicke pieces where well seasoned. The wong tong soup was blah with two tiney dumpling(not won tong) The eggplant/ stuffing was not too bad but I've had much better. Lets just say I shoulda gotten my butt out the door and gone downtown ...

Worst Steamed Crystal Shrimp Dumpling Ever!
I really don't want to write about something bad, but I got very disappointed by this.... I really like dim sum, and I was very happy when I found this page. But my most favorite dim sum dish shrimp dumpling of this place was very mushy, too soft, weird flavor, and couldn't find any shrimp!! So sad....

tantalizingly tasty
I think I ordered General Tso Tofu 7 days straight one time during Christmas. Simply the best in the neighbourhood; prompt friendly service; and a great value. They're basically always open too for those late nights in the office. Super.
