Feng Shui

Prices vary depending on what time you are there. I ordered the same exact food same exact way and there was a 3 dollar difference. Also, they cheated me on food quantity by pushing up the bottom of the container — sad move.

I had the General Chicken with fried rice. The chicken was so tender. The best Ive had in a long time. The line moved quickly. The down side is that you have to hunt for a place to sit, which isn’t that easy if you are with other people. The temperature in the food court was very warm for the season. I would go back if I was a local.

I had hopes for this Panda Express-​like setup. However, my fried rice and chow mein was cardboard-​y, and both the sesame chicken and kung pao had mushy chicken. I miss how good Panda Express is.

We ordered Chinese food here because we were craving it and starving. My boyfriend devoured his and it was no problem for him (maybe because he was starving and would honestly eat anything).
I ate from his but we still had another container of food left that was mainly untouched. I was honestly not hungry and we decided to give the food along with chopsticks, napkins and utensils to the homeless person that was seated close to us.
I usually bring the leftovers home but we were going to a museum right after that did not allow food. Instead of throwing out the food and being wasteful, we wanted to instead perform a kind gesture.

A random occurrence happened by the cash register where we ordered the food… Out of nowhere I had a sharp cut on my hand… I kept wondering what it was or where it came from and perhaps they did not clean their register table area well. After close examination, I saw there was a tiny sliver of glass that was stuck to my hand, causing it pain throughout the day (even under a band aide). At first, I thought it was just a tiny sliver of my skin that was crystallized, but the next day, when I tried to rip/​pull it off, I found out that it was actually a tiny glass sliver… Ouch!

It was okay Chinese food.
But if you’re in a rush … This is the place because the line moves quickly.

Worst beef with broccoli I have ever had. Sesame chicken did not taste good. Fried rice bland and cold. Avoid this place if you can.

Pretty darn awful, basically the kind of Americanized Chinese you’d expect in the middle of the country… they somehow still afford rent, presumably held up by suckers in a rush.

Even for cafeteria food, the food is bland and greasy. The food often looks like it has been sitting out for too long in way too much sauce and they mix «fresh» food into the dry and soggy food (I seriously question their sanitary practices). The servers are bored at best. You are clearly getting what you pay for.
I’ve eaten at Feng Shui on a couple of occasions because it is a quick and convenient lunch option aka shortest line when it is raining or cold for those who work near Grand Central Terminal. The quality of the food is the reason the line is so short and there are a wide range of better food options in Grand Central.

I’ve eaten from here maybe a dozen times over the years. If you are going to eat here, I’d recommend avoiding the dishes soaking in tepid sauce and get something like the sweet and spicy fish (which I’ve never had a problem with).
But I will never eat here again. I don’t know whether the pork was under cooked or just badly cooked, but two bites and I had to throw the whole dish away. Disgusting. I was willing to give them a second chance (shows how much of a glutton for punishment I am just to have a reliable in-​building source of Chinese food), but better judgment prevailed.
If I can avoid eating here, you can too.
Dry heaving after eating the food here is like:
Seeing a Beware of Dog sign, seeing the snarling dog with bared teeth, seeing swatches of fabric left by previous trespassers, and still ending up in the hospital to remove a canine from your rear because you think «maybe it won’t happen to me.»

If there were an option for zero stars this place deserves it. I hesitate to even call what I got there food. I actually created this Unilocal account for the sole purpose of letting others know how bad this place was.

It’s a similar concept to the Panda Express but with a different name and a few different choices.
The food is greasy and not particularly flavorful, and for $ 12, you get a noodle/​rice + 2 side combo meal. I tried the veggie lo mein (bland but filling by volume), the tofu (fried well but the sauce could’ve used some garlic and salt, and the sesame chicken (not bad).
Overall, I can make better at home, so I’m leaving this with just two stars… it left me full, a little poorer than average, and unsatisfied.

Food is always flavorful, well prepared and fresh. (It is in grand central station after all!) I love their soups and the pork dishes.

I’ve been trying to try out all the grand central food. I got the noodle special. It wasn’t anything special but for the price (4.50) it was filling and didn’t taste bad. Your options are limited in grand central but I would go back.

Nothing special about this place. How can i explain it clearly? Have you been to a local Chinese restaurant spot and buy food for 6 dollars? If yes, than you will understand my next statement. Is basically the same food with high price tag.

We visited this fast food pit stop at GCT after we finished a two hour walking tour of the terminal on 6÷16÷13 around 3:30 p.m. and we were tired and famished. The prices looked reasonable compared to other offerings within the terminal.
Two male clerks were behind the counter, one was taller than the other one. The shorter one who had some sort of shiny thingy below his lip and who could be either oriental or Mexican was an obnoxious, cynical, disdainful SOB. I’ll refer to him as «the insect.» The look in the insect’s eyes when I asked a couple of questions was despicable. I asked for an explanation of the items on the board since they are confusing. He referred to all the meat dishes as «sides», I’ve never heard meat dishes referred to as «sides». «Sides» are usually rice, noodles and vegetables. I again asked him, he came back with the same stupid answer which could also barely be heard where I stood.
My husband asked the cashier for two cups with ice for our sodas, she told him to ask the insect for the cups. When my husband asked the insect for the cups, he said the cashier was supposed to give them to us. When my husband balked at this, the insect produced two containers which could pass for cups but are probably for serving take-​out food. We both told the young cashier of our displeasure with the insect; however, we’re sure nothing will come of it because she has no authority over other employees and she could barely speak English.
Stay away from this place unless you appreciate being treated like a non-​person by an uneducated, stupid clerk who serves food from behind a counter because he probably doesn’t have the intelligence to do any other type of work.

This place offers $ 4 crap Chinese food for $ 10.
Eat anywhere else in Grand Central Terminal and you’ll be happier.

The Chinese food at «Feng Shui» is pretty much as bad as they get! The only reason why this place stays in business is because it’s located inside a historic tourist attraction with thousands of busy daily commuters.
When you’re walking around the food court at the Grand Station Terminal in New York, you have tons of options to choose from. You have a variety of ethnic options and your head goes crazy on what you’re in the mood for. I came to the Grand Station Terminal with 3 other friends and we decided to go our separate ways for lunch. I was kind of skeptical on the other options, so I decided to play it safe with Chinese food. Since all the prices at the Grand Station Terminal is jacked up, I paid a premium price for a below average portion lunch. As for the flavor of the food; it was bland, salty and soggy. How can you cook broccoli beef, sweet & sour chicken & noodles incorrectly? This place can!
If I had to defend «Feng Shui» in anyway, I have to point out that practically all the food courts at the Grand Station Terminal was lousy. As I’ve mentioned, my other three friends ordered something different from three other food courts and they were ALL dissatisfied with their meal. I would recommend visiting the Grand Station Terminal; but if you’re hungry, I suggest getting a meal before or after you visit this historic New York landmark.

I’m not sure why everyone is coming down on this place so hard. It seemed like every other Chinese restaurant I’ve been forced to experience. I ordered a vegetarian tofu dish and found it on par with the average Chinese restaurant fare. I mean, it wasn’t amazing, but it certainly wasn’t the worst I’ve ever had.

I beg of you. Do not eat here. Every thing on my plate was inedible. Anything else in the food court is a better choice. The street vendor selling gyros is also very good.

I know I’m old, because the first thing I thought of while eating my lunch from here was that old SNL sketch Coffee Talk with Linda Richman, which featured Mike Meyers in drag. One of its recurring jokes was that Linda would get verklempt (choked up to you goyim) take a deep breath, and say stuff like I’m feeling verklempt! Talk amongst yourselves. Here’s a topic. Rhode Island is neither a road, nor an island, discuss. Everybody would laugh, and the sketch would continue.
And the first thing I thought of after trying my Thai Red Curry, was that it doesn’t taste Thai, the sauce was orange, and it didn’t really taste like curry either. More like Chinese breaded chicken in strange orange sauce. But obviously that wouldn’t sell.
Add in the fact that it cost $ 9.53, and I’m pretty sure I won’t be going back.
Sure the employees were nice, and they offered veggie lo-​mein instead of rice with your meat. But it was generic steam table food, and pretty unimpressive.
