A Queens Boulevard Cantonese seafood stop that delivers best when you order like a regular: one shellfish centerpiece, one simple sauté, and a starch to anchor the table. Treat it as a reliable neighborhood seafood room rather than a special-occasion destination and it lands more consistently.
Must-Try Dishes:
Ginger-scallion crab, Salt and pepper squid, Steamed fish with soy and scallion
What makes it special: Cantonese seafood built for straightforward, repeatable family-style orders.
8.1
A Sichuan-leaning kitchen where the best move is to commit to the spicy, numbing classics and skip the “safe” detours. Pick one signature cold or specialty dish, one wok main, and one casserole-style comfort plate for the strongest spread.
Must-Try Dishes:
Yam gelatin with duck, Diced chicken and peanuts with hot pepper, Chicken and eggplant in casserole
What makes it special: Sichuan-focused cooking that rewards spice-forward ordering.
