This is my go to Chinese spot in Port! The food is always good and I've never not liked something new that I try! My favorite part is the staff! I would highly recommend for lunch or dinner! We prefer to take it home with movie night!

Cash only. Really good spring rolls, and I love their barbercued boneless ribs. They're actually done on the grill and not drenched in that weird red sauce. They're very friendly and food made fast. Busy place too.

Great reliable Chinese meals. Been a patron for several years and they got us out of a pinch when everything else closes on holidays. Nice friendly staff.

I really like the house wonton soup. They are not so friendly to people they do not know them and they only take cash.

Really really good Chinese food. Excellent spare ribs, Singapore chow mei fun, Szechuan beef and Kung po chicken- I ordered from here because my usual spot was closed but this is my new go to for take out Chinese!

We've been eating here since my family moved to Port Washington in the 90s. I live in California now, and when I come into town the first thing I do is have Gum How for dinner. Everything is always great.

Friendly people, fast service, and perhaps the best pork fried rice in town. I haven't tried their other fried rice varieties, but I would guess they're every bit as good. They don't add the unnecessary and detracting carrots and peas that seem to be standard at other places. And it needs no condiments, either (at least IMO). Sheer perfection.

Walked in and placed a take out order. There are a few tables should you decide to eat in the restaurant. Food was prepared quickly. Got home and it was still very hot. There was a generous amount of pineapple in the sauce, chicken was golden brown and it was delicious. The egg roll was fantastic too.
