Very cool ambiance- kind of retro classy, and somewhat gaudy but really original. It has a very interesting ambiance. The staff is friendly, attentive, professional and just downright awesome. The food is delicious. It's a bit more expensive but it's really, really good. - American Chinese food- i.e beef lo mein, fried wonton, sesame chicken, general Tsaos chicken, etc. Very Very good food. Pick up is good also but the vibe of eating in can't be beat. This place is one of a kind. Love it. Highly recommended 👌 get the general tsaos chicken, the beef looks mein and the Hot and Sour soup. Orchid has the best Hot & Sour soup I've ever tasted. 😋

Why is there such a difference in the price of lunch vs dinner menu? This place can be even more nice if they do an update. The food is very good

An old school elegant Chinese restaurant. This is Chinese only, not asian fusion. They have the large wide crunchy noodles. It's a large place with a lot of seating. It's underground so lots of steps from the parking lot. There is an elevator by the rear parking lot entrance. Very enjoyable.

The only good thing about this place is the service. The food has no taste, chicken was rubbery, corn soup had pieces of corn husk in it, and the shrimp tasted undercooked. The carpets smell musty, and everything seemed like it could use a cleaning and a bit of an update. Not sure why this is everyone's favorite Chinese place, I've had better food from much cheaper Chinese restaurants.

We stopped in while visiting from out of town. We were there during the week and it was still relatively busy. The service throughout the night was outstanding. The ambience was really interesting. It felt high class. My Orchid Shrimp dish was excellent. A couple of the other dishes were overcooked a bit. We had two cocktails. My wife had a Malibu Bay Breeze that was very good. My Old Fashioned was very watered down. Even though everything wasn't perfect we still enjoyed our evening.

Very upset. I’m considering calling a lawyer to sue them. We came with 20 people and it was my sisters birthday . The Peking duck got my sister and I sick. Out of the 20 we were the only ones who ate the duck. Nobody else got sick. Very mad that we had to pay about $80 for food poisoning.
This place used to be so good and it has
Apparently gone downhill. This was an extremely busy night and we were spending a lot of money at their restaurant. They made me totally sick and my sister was also on her burthday the next day. We are there on the 25th of march 2023.

Hiding out in a down stairs store front is this High end Chinese restaurant. The food here is great but the duck is outstanding. I’ve never had duck this meaty and tender. Excellently prepared and served. The wait staff is also outstanding. We had the Peking duck, orchid duck , pu pu platter and the triple crown. It’s getting harder to find sit down , Hogh end Chinese restaurants, so this was a find. The decor was fabulous.

There is truly no finer Chinese food on Long Island than Orchid! We have been coming for the past 20 years and always have a great experience!! The service is always top notch thanks to our favorite waiter Gary who has become a part of the family! The food is second to none; our favorite appetizers include the scallion pancakes, their ribs, dumplings, crab Rangoon’s, and of course the egg rolls. Their Peking duck is phenomenal as well as the sesame chicken, multiple lo mein’s, and the best pork fried rice!! Their ice cream is the perfect end to the wonderful feast!! Highly recommend!!
