Gookies Kitchen

This is classic NYC style Chinese fast food restaurant. I was told this location have been around a decades so I wanted to visit for a classic takeout and that's what I got. It was a little too greasy but I am a health conscious person so a meal like this would be one in 4-6 months at a time. The was good. The staff was nice and made sure o was aware of the lunch special which was a great deal. The food is very affordable.

Great food

Best on Merrick

Very good Chinese food. Love their hot and sour soup!

I heard a lot about this place so I decided to try it, and I must say so far so good. Best spot on Merrick, fresh taste, and pretty good customer service. I hope they stay consistent so I keep coming back.

Great value, great prices, and great customer service. I’d only advise they have a better phone system and delivery courier services

Love the food here and regularly order many of the various items on the menu. Have yet to find something we do not like.

A good meal for a great deal, food is hot delicious and filling. I have been coming there with friends for years, and they love it.

This is one of the top three fast Chinese restaurants in the Rosedale area, On top of that they are only one's that followed the direction extra spicy 👍

I have been eating here since 1994 and the food quality has never changes. I love this place!

Best Chinese food in south area of Queens.... I leave my house 5 miles away and pass many restaurants to come here

I like and trust this place. Food is good and the place is clean. And most of all no glass window...i don't buy from places with glass windows

Good food, fast delivery (almost all the time).

Great food and customer service and they homemade Ice tea is out of this world

Excellent quality. Fast service. Fair price

I really like this place. Been ordering from them for over 10 years and the food AND service have definitely improved over the years. Food's not greasy and it's prepared in a reasonable time whether your deliver or pick up. Highly recommended.

Great neighborhood restaurant. Good Chinese food is so hard to find, but I travel out of my way, to come here! But, they only take cash so be prepared! It is soooo worth it!

I’m usually very satisfied wit the quality tho some people may not be so patient to wait as some restaurants deliver quicker But to add to this I ordered again tonight and just wow the foods amazing it came out perfect the cook did it just the way i asked an really nailed it on the money 💵 if you know what I mean Their really masters of fried food anything fried comes out outstanding just let me know you want it crispy and boom comes to perfection very well done I’ll upload some pics of what me an the fam ordered too

I LOVE their Lo Mian and Mai Fun! Very delicous and flavouful! They always accomendate my teste, making a little adjustment to my order fit my personal preference. The seasoning is just perfect! They adjust the dish according to my request.

Excellent, excellent food, but why take a jab at your ethnicity?

The best Chinese spot in queens, wr2mm. Their food is always hot, presentable and delicious. The only thing is the wait time. I live like 5-10 minutes away (driving) so ion like how they take about 20-30 minutes to get to me. Worth the wait tho.

Was in NY, and this is the BEST Chinese takeout EVERŔ!! There's a little window you speak into to place your order. They only take cash, I believe. They do free delivery over $10.00. Wish they could deliver 600 miles 😫, I'm hungry thinking of the memory of shrimp and broccoli 🥦. YUMMMY!!!

The server at the front is great!!! She is very nice, patient, and pretty 😍😍😍Always provide great customer service! I place pick up order from them all the time. I also order for delivery occasionally. Although the delivery might be busy sometimes, but 35 mins is definitely worth waiting! STRONGLY RECOMMENDED!!!

One of, if not the best, Chinese food spot on Merrick Blvd...and there are several. I've been ordering from Gookies for many years and the food is always excellent. The staff is very friendly. All the food tastes fresh and is well seasoned. You can see right into their kitchen, which always looks clean and airy. I've checked out every Chinese take-out spots in the area, and this one is clearly #1.

Absolutely delicious Chinese food. It is so good, every single thing they make at cookies is fresh, tasty, chef restaurant good & amazing! I appreciate how quickly you also deliver with care. And how you look out for me as your loyal customer. Tye

Great BBQ chicken, delivery comes within a hour but it’s worth it

They only take Cash is the only knock on this place but good food.

They have some authentic dishes on there menu which is good.

Great steamed and fried shrimp dumplings

Good food

Good good. Great service.

My local food is good and they are consistent

They should fix their door and warm inside this place. It overwhelms by cold.

Food is always well cooked and its not greasy. They are always nice. Always buy food from this place and have a A.

Great clean service...wait time for my food was not long at all!

Clean and well cooked food. Plus they have good and timely service.

Been ordering from Gookies for 10+ years and a great quick eats.

I order today for the first time and the food was very tasty overall. I order house special fried rice with chicken wings. The wings were nice and crispy and the rice had a good taste but only Complain is that the rice was a bit hard. I also ordered Beef and broccoli and it was amazing. I will definitely order again and hopefully the rice will be a little bit softer.

This is my goto Chinese restaurant in the neighborhood.

Take out Chinese. Cash only! Delivers. The best in Rosedale/Laurelton.

The bourbon chicken was a little too sweet for my taste. The spinach was delicious 😋 rib tips were good the broccoli alittle too hard but good . All the food was hot n you get alot for $11.99 enough for two people .

I've been ordering food here over the last 18yrs, although they have changed hands through the years the food has always remained great no matter what my family has ordered. The only down side is this is an all cash business meaning no credit cards or apps available.

The food is very good, however, the lunch specials taste better than the dinner specials, especially on the weekends

Its like playing Russian Roulette but the odds are hardly in your favor

Ok

It’s cool

This is one of the only Chinese restaurant's I eat at in the area. The staff is pleasant, and they will customize your order to your specifications. The homemade iced tea is great, and you get one for free if your meal is over 10 dollars. I've been eating here for years and have never had a problem.

Ordered food from here since my usual spot was closed. The rice was hard and tasted like it was the bottom of the pot and the chicken wings was soooo salty. The food really wasn’t all that. I asked for duck sauce and was given one but I had multiple meals so I guess one drop each meal. No napkins given.

The food is fabulous. But you have to watch how they charge you. The charge delivery fee as well as overcharging for food. I have to stay on them about the charges

The food was decent ngl, but the customer service completely ruined the experience. The delivery driver banged aggressively on my door and called while I was already opening it, claiming they had been trying to reach me (I have an Apple ecosystem, if they had called, I would’ve seen it TRUST). Then, they yelled at me for not tipping enough, even though I had already tipped 15%. I ended up giving over 20% because the driver seemed distressed, but it’s unacceptable to take their frustration out on a customer. The driver also claimed they drove 30 minutes to deliver my food, even though I live just 5 minutes from the restaurant. To make matters worse, my order was incomplete I didn’t receive the free drink that was supposed to come with my $20 meal. I understand that everyone has tough days, but this level of service was completely unprofessional and disappointing.
