| - With 45 check-ins here, you could say I am a fan of New York Chinese Restaurant. I have been a fan of New York Chinese Restaurant before they opened this location a couple of years back. I'd dine in their Lake Mead Boulevard and Fort Apache restaurants when I was in the Summerlin area.
I am a fan of New York Chinese Restaurant because they bring the East Coast Chinese restaurant cuisine to Southern Nevada. In comparison to many and least every Southern Nevada Chinese restaurant that I have been to, they serve a Chinese Restaurant experience that is unique West of the Appalachian Mountains. For starters, the meal includes wonton soup instead of the usual hot and sour soup or egg drop soup. The egg roll is East Coast style, large and crunchy. The major difference is the chow mein that is served with either pork or chicken. This is a vegetable and cabbage based chow mein.
Whenever, I visit New York Chinese Restaurant, nearly every time I dined here for dinner, I ordered the chicken chow mein without celery. This is a dish that I have been going goo goo over since I was a toddler, and a dish that my parents would reward me with for a treat. So, as an adult, I will reward myself with the New York chow mein. In comparison to a New York Chinese Restaurant this chow mein could hold its own. There is a few increments of tastiness leading up to this New York style delicacy. The meal starts off with crunchy noodles served with duck sauce. I pat extra for bottomless Coke. Then there is a delicious bowl of wonton soup. I appreciate that New York Chinese Restaurant serves wonton soup with the meal. Wonton soup is one of my dearest foods in the World and in my opinion every Chinese restaurant ought to include wonton soup with the meal. Then with the meal, I order fried rice over white or brown rice. The chicken chow mein dinner plus a beverage adds up to around $11.
When I visit New York Chinese Restaurant for lunch, I usually order the chicken lo mein lunch special. Interestingly the New York chow mein is omitted from the lunch special. I also give applause to the chicken lo mein which includes the crunchy noodles, wonton soup, and rice. The bill usually adds up to around $8 with a soda.
In contrast to the majority of my Chinese restaurant reviews, New York Chinese Restaurant is unique in the sense that I am mentally comparing it to the establishments in New York. I haven't indulged in New York chow mein in many of the Las Vegas restaurants. There was one time recently that I tried shrimp with lobster sauce. To be honest, it trailed behind some of the Las Vegas Chinese restaurants.
New York Chinese Restaurant's biggest problem besides the Lake Mead Boulevard location Dirty Dining press, is they just cannot handle when it gets busy. There have been a couple of times on a Saturday for example that I'd just sit patiently for the server to acknowledge me. There have been other times where I'd have to walk to the restroom to pick up paper towels. It is on account of the fact that they serve a unique cuisine in the Las Vegas market that I'd tolerate this. There were a few times in the past, when it is busy I cannot get a table causing me to substitute another restaurant experience. The restaurant that holds a take-out ambience only holds around eight tables.
New York style chow mein and wonton soup are Chinese food that I have been fond of since toddler hood. With that said, I am fond of New York Chinese Restaurant despite its faults. Before I fly across the continent to New York, I will fly on cloud nine savoring New York style chow mein and wonton soup in New York Chinese Restaurant.
