Yao’s Kitchen

Best Riceroll in Staten Island

Yao’s Kitchen is a chinese restaurant in Staten Island, New York. It is listed at 752 Forest Ave, Staten Island, NY 10310, which places it among the local businesses of Staten Island that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by.

Chinese restaurants in the United States range from steam-table lunch counters to white-tablecloth Cantonese seafood halls, and most fall somewhere in between: a laminated menu, a lunch special board, and combo plates priced a few dollars below the dinner menu. Ordering by number off the menu is normal and speeds things up, especially at takeout counters. Family-style ordering, where a table shares several dishes with rice rather than each person getting an individual entree, is standard at sit-down spots and usually cheaper per person. Many neighborhood restaurants are cash-preferred or charge a small card fee, so it is worth asking or checking the door before you order. Delivery apps cover most areas, but calling the restaurant directly is often faster and avoids the markup.

The business lists hours on 6 days of the week. The most common schedule is 10:30 am–9 pm. It is closed on Tuesday. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm.
