I mean really? Good scallion pancakes, good pork and scallion dumplings, good hot and sour soup, everything else on the menu is subpar chinese buffet quality tray warmed grease. I was so shocked to see this place ranked in the top ten we had to go back and lo and behold it disappointed once again. Not only is the food quality extremely low and tasteless, the restaurant os so dismal and depressing, it's a wonder more people don't walk out on sight. The mint green walls and idle staff are ample forewarning of the meal ahead. The general's chicken was greasy and cold, the soup dumplings bland and mushy, the beef Chowf Fun and chewy greasy mess, beef and broccoli was tough and stringy. The staff here is so terse and inconsiderate, but who would blame them with such ignorant customers. What's more shocking is that with so many great restaurants such a short jaunt away like Peking Duck House or Hop Lee or Grand Sichuan that people would subject themselves to such mediocrity. As someone who has eaten at many of the restaurants in chinatown and some of the more notorious haunts in midtown, uws and ues, i have to say this is one of the restaurants to put at the bottom of the list. I might almost recommend you try it just to see how erroneous this rating is. Nice Green Bo, LMAO! HA!
Pros: Uh, it's cheap, it's near other good restaurants.
Cons: Poor food, poor service, depressive atmosphere.
