Two thumbs up for our new Chinese restaurant Ru Yi next to CVS. Soothing atmosphere and authentic Chinese food.
They do take out as well.
At this writing they are waiting to take credit cards.
Definitely a welcome addition to my neck of the woods.

And true to my word, I ordered delivery tonight, and I give it a big thumbs up.

Easy ordering, quick and friendly delivery. Here's the food rundown:
Wonton Soup - nothing special
Cucumber in Sesame Oil - excellent & very spicy
BBQ Spare Ribs - meaty & delicious, and not super sweet like most places
Beef & Broccoli - pretty good
Shrimp w/ cashews - ok
Young Chow Fried Rice - this is a dish I really enjoyed. Most places around here make lousy fried rice, but this was done in peanut oil and it was just delicious.

I think my lesson here is that I should venture from the traditional Americanized Chinese dishes and try their more interesting fare. They have casseroles & hot plates and other stuff like pork intestines, feet, liver and kidneys (not all in the same dish.)

I will definitely try them again.

Dssh, they do. They delivered to us on 73 street. Food was very good. We got:

Crisp shredded fish with chili pepper-excellent
beef with basil-good but nothing special
dry bean curd with chili- delicious
sauted shredded potato- very good
wonton soup- as Superclaim said, nothing special.
All in all, I was quite pleased and will be ordering from them again.

they're generally cut the same way, with other veg but the shreds remain separate, not smashed into a cake. usually pretty spicy, thanks to the liberal use of hot peppers. not sure if this place follows the pattern.

the other/original location is actually closer to me (83-something broadway). may try giving them a call as well, delivery wise. this is cool news!

Looking AT the menu.

had our second delivery from Ru Yi a couple nights ago, and we couldn't be happier. genuine Sichuan dishes with no dumbing down.

we've had:
Chengdu Shrimp (head on, with plenty of sichuan peppercorns)
Shredded Fish with Chilii Pepper
Sweet Corn nuggets (imagine balls of fried creamed corn....and it's much yummier than it sounds)
a couple of pork belly dishes that i can't recall off the top of my head

delivery from 90th down to 76th very fast, food still hot and - even more important to me -- the crispy items still crispy.

not much in the way of american-chinese, but there are plenty of other places to get that. this place could hold its own in flushing or sunset park, for sure.

Also, the sesame chicken, which is a pretty standard American Chinese dish, was done very well here. Much less sweet than I've had it before.
