"This used to be an easy 5 star rating; I've been a loyal and frequent customer of New China House for about 15 years! They've consistently been my favorite restaurant in this entire area, and the only local Chinese restaurant I patronized that's how much I loved the food I used to get. I absolutely LOVED their Monk's menu (particularly the Monk's Beef (seitan) with Broccoli, which I nearly always ordered), and the Crispy Eggplant! The Vegetable Chow Mai Fun was tasty, too. I also always included the Vegetable Spring Rolls and Vegetable Dumplings (fried) with my orders. Because I'd been ordering the Monk's Beef with Broccoli for so many years, I didn't even know about the Crispy Eggplant until about a year ago... when I promptly fell in love with it, and ordered it repeatedly thereafter (alongside the Monk's). I cannot BEGIN to convey my disappointment when they suddenly stopped offering the Crispy Eggplant. However, I assumed they still had my old favorites... but no! The ENTIRE Monk's category has been removed from the menu! AND even the Vegetable Dumplings have disappeared, too! Alllllll the dishes the only dishes I loved are gone! New China House, say it ain't so! Please bring them back!"

"We compared Bamboo House with Chen Garden and Bamboo House beats Chen hands down. The food is much better tasting, the ingredients are fresher and the servers are more personal and attentive at Bamboo. The hot soup in Bamboo is the best in Rochester. You also have fresh shrimp spring rolls for a dollar with your lunch order with soup... such a great deal! If you like hot chili oil, Bamboo 's homemade chili oil is the best we have experienced... it has a beautiful nutty / roasted taste and is very sharp! It's best to go with it. A must try appetizer is their hot and spicy chicken wings!! It has a unique honey glazed sauce... and spicy hot!! We ordered today the following dishes that were boiled skillfully: Crispy Chicken Chinese style was not overdoned, damp meat, crispy skin family style Tofu was just the right spicy hot, vegetables were skillfully stir fried (krispy) and tofu was perfectly deep fried, not overdone! Pan roasted dumplings fresh, tasty and homemade, not frozen, the diving sauce was tasteful and complements the dumplings perfectly (our second visit): Chow My canton style Subgum, Incredible! See our picture (our third visit): Tofu family style, Sesame Chicken lunch specialties with hot acid and egg drops of soup.. delicious! (fourth visit): fantastic food today! Phat Thai lunch special, Watercress w/ Garlic and Reserved Tofu, shrimp with cashew lunch specially made! (fifth visit): Ordnete Jumbo shrimp with snow pea pods lunch special and that was excellent. Our other lunch special was Jumbo Shrimps with Szechuan sauce was tasteless and sauce was watery again... they need to fix this great inconstancy between their different chefs. (6th visit): FANTASTIC! Order Subgum Cantonese Crispy (pan fried) Noodles that is definitely one of their signature dishes! Our server Fang was great, so great service. Oh, my! We ordered these two dishes: (1) Chen Dao Chicken, (2) Scallops with Hunan Sauce were both amazing! slightly crushed with tempura like dough, the sauce on both dishes perfectly complements the other ingredients (see photos) beef with broccoli, shrimp with broccoli, scallops with Hunan sauce (again) fantastic!! That's the hot soup. The Beef Chow Fun was made it had the 'wok hei'!! We ask for our beef with snow bowl, Hunan sauce instead and it was fantastic! Egg Drop and Hot Sour soups were tasteful! Moo Gai Pan delicious with delicate slices of white meat chicken! Thanks Bamboo House! Keep the big work Bamboo House!"

"The food was good, but very overpriced. Not worth the price for the amount of food. My husband ordered the scallops. There were 4 for $35. The shrimp cocktail was excellent but 4 shrimp for $36. Will not be going back there. First and last time."

"This place should not be on Happy Cow. They are completely hostile to vegans. Though they have a vegan menu almost nothing on it is actually vegan. The tofu is fried in the same oil as chicken, making it not vegan. I mentioned this to the waitress, she dismissed our concern because she used to be a vegan and is now so over that, she had no patience for those of us still consumed by it apparently. So we ordered a fresh spring roll, which was actually good and tasted vegan. Nice Hoisin sauce.. But then we ordered a Tom Yum lemongrass soup. It tasted like fish sauce even though the waitress checked with the kitchen and they denied putting fish sauce in it. We also ordered two Chinese main dishes, tofu steamed because the fried was not vegan and vegetables, one with garlic sauce one with Szechuan sauce. Both of them tasted so much like meat. We asked the waitress about it, she talked to the kitchen and they denied cooking it with meat fat. Perhaps the wok was so coated with so much meat fat that they didn't even realize how much taste the cookware imparted. It was so disgusting. Inedible. The waitress wanted to assure us that eating tofu fried in a vat with chicken doesn't normally cause stomach problems for vegans. We mentioned that we are vegan for ethical reasons so no amount of chicken fat is ok with us. And the way she was denying that anything had any meat taste in it was a sort of gaslighting. At least they comped our uneaten meal. They could have charged us for the tea and the fresh spring rolls that were fine, but they didn't ask us to pay for those, so I do appreciate that."

"This was the most dissatisfying and disappointing dining experience I have ever had. The meat was tough and overcooked, the fried pork was dry, and the chow mei fun lacked flavor. Furthermore, the portion sizes were significantly smaller than other nearby Chinese restaurants. If they are charging $10 per serving, they should provide more substantial and enjoyable meals. This is especially important if they want to retain customers and stay afloat during the pandemic. My advice to them is to improve their food quality in order to survive in the current climate."

"Abacky is an average Thai and Japanese fusion sit down restaurant that is run by Chinese people. The place is clean with a decent looking decor. The prices are very reasonable too for Chelsea with entrees being around $12-$15. They even have generously sized bento boxes for $16 for lunch (or $18 for dinner).The food is not authentic tasting for their Thai or Japanese offerings though. We tried both cuisines and felt that the food was a little bland. It was not horrible but lacked the correct amount of seasoning and flavor. They have a small section of Chinese food as well on the menu. We did not try any of those dishes but they would probably fare better."

"I would definitely return to this restaurant just for their amazing crab rangoons. The rest of the menu offers typical American Chinese food, but the lunch specials are a great deal. The crab rangoons, however, are outstanding! My personal favorite style features large, triangular wonton wrappers that are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, filled generously with a mixture of 'crab', cream cheese, and scallions. I even had the opportunity to watch them being prepared and filled during their downtime, and I wish I could replicate their technique at home."

"Have been coming here for years and every time I visit I always get the salt and pepper squid. It does not disappoint. We got the pecking duck, salt and pepper squid, walnut shrimp and eggplant steak in garlic sauce . This was enough for four people. Very delicious, friendly staff. One star off because I wish the portion for the walnut shrimp was similar to the other dishes but all in all, amazing!!!!"

"I got a call from Tom George to say they wouldn't serve brunch during the summer months, only dinner. The hostess was very nice and asked me to postpone dinner, which I did. The hostess also offered my group a round of drinks for the inconvenience. So I arrived at the restaurant at 6pm on Sunday because I wanted to celebrate Father's Day with my family and the restaurant was closed. We were very surprised and disappointed. The restaurant didn't call the next day and I decided not to eat there again. So I went to the LA Chapter at the Ace Hotel on Sunday and we had a lovely dinner that I knew I would because I've been there before. I don't know whose responsibility it is at the open table to be sure that the information about a restaurant is current and accurate, but nothing like this has ever happened to me in a restaurant."

"I highly recommend this restaurant for its outstanding selection of Asian cuisine. The staff is exceptionally friendly and attentive. The interior is well-lit and beautifully decorated, creating a pleasant atmosphere. They serve fresh vegetables, tender meats, and top-quality sushi that is always delicious. This place is my top choice for Chinese food, and their Thai dishes are equally delightful. The employees consistently demonstrate thoughtfulness and warmth towards customers."

"Last week we got takeout from Ling Ling. The shrimp with lobster sauce came in a quart container and was 90% sauce. What was really upsetting is our beef on a stick appetizer was bad, literally. Either the beef or the marinade was rancid. It stunk and was not edible. Ling Ling has never been inexpensive, but we had always thought worth it. Not anymore!"

"I arrived here just before closing time for the night. The atmosphere may not have been the greatest, but the food definitely made up for it! I ordered the Sweet and Sour Chicken and was pleased to find that it was a generous portion for a very reasonable price. I will definitely be coming back for more. This is one of the best Asian restaurants in the city, if not the best. The service was excellent and the meal type was dinner. The price per person is between $10-20. I would rate the food and service a 5 and the atmosphere a 3. I would highly recommend the Sweet and Sour Pork, Orange Flavor Beef, Beef Fried Rice, Triple Delight, Wonton Soup, Shrimp Fried Rice, Roast Pork Fried Rice, Curry Chicken, Double Cooked Chicken, Boneless Spare Ribs, and New Jade Special Chop Suey."

"I don’t like how they have a gratuity on every bill no matter the amount on people at your table. They are now stating that would be the gratuity even if it was a one person bill. I love this restaurant but will not be returning back until the gratuity is less. It was me and my spouse and our bills was and that’s not what our usual bill comes to. And we go to this restaurant frequently"
