Best cheap American Chinese
This place is an exemplar of cheap American Chinese food (at least in the NYC are, where I grew up). Pretty much everything tastes exactly like it's supposed to, especially the pork dumplings. (The lo mein is kind of bland, as is the case with a lot of these places.) Of course, if you don't like cheap American Chinese food, and you're expecting "authentic" Chinese food, don't order from a place called 'Family Garden' where an order of dumplings is $4. But if what you're searching for is the classic American Chinese fast food joint, this is it. And it's better than the few other comparable places I've tried in the area. The only thing that sucks is that they only take cash, like so many other places in this neighborhood. I know they have to pay fees, but honestly tonight will be the fourth or fifth time just in the last couple of months that I will have ordered from some place else simply because I didn't have cash on me. Also, my ratings for "atmosphere" and "service" were purely arbitrary - I've only ever ordered take out. (Why would you dine in at a place like this?) But their delivery is always really fast!

Gooood
cheap chinese food for when I'm in the mood. the lady on the phone that took my order even corrected me from chow mein to lo mein. thank god. the chow mein would have been soupy, and the lo mein are the noodles

The One That Got Away
I've since moved from the area, and I REALLY miss this place. I cry every night about it. The chow mai fun is sooooo good. Why?!

MSG!
Ordered a veg. chow fun with fried tofu. It was quite tasty, but the amount of msg in the food was so intense that i can still feel it in my head and on my tongue 4 hours after eating the dish.

Favorite Delivery
I have never been to the restaurant but have ordered delivery many times. I have never been disappointed. The quality and freshness is unmatched in East Williamsburg. The pork dumplings are exquisite. The one order problem I had was dealt with swiftly.

ugh
how does this place even exist? even more strange - how are so many people raving about it when this is, quite possibly, the worst food i have ever had the displeasure of tasting?
