Great Barbecue Restaurant - Crossing

The best char siu in Chinatown! Duck, chicken and pork belly are also very good. Scallion dipping sauce is a must. Service can be a bit brusque at times but don’t let that bother you. The food is well worth it. Take out cash only. Highly recommended.

Today, my experience at the restaurant was dreadful. Despite our love for the food and the usual kindness of the staff, we encountered an extremely rude cashier. When I simply asked for recommendations on popular dishes because I 'm not familiar with the menu, she bluntly refused, saying, No, I will not help you. You must choose whatever, and I don 't care! After I open my food I realize they she also placed me the wrong order! My kids feel extremely sad! They only love 叉烧肉 but we end up with this!

My boyfriend is Chinese-American and got excited to see somewhere local he could pick up duck. We live on the cape so it’s just not accessible for us typically. Even though he speaks Chinese fairly well, he maybe misspoke about asking for duck. The guys looked at him like he was an alien and then after my boyfriend pulled out his phone to look up the proper word for duck, one of the guys here yelled at him as if he was being super rude “no duck, sold out!”. Imagine being excited for something and then getting yelled at like you’re a problem. I work in IT support for all ranges of language barriers and capabilities. I just have no patience for people who act like this toward people, especially for doing nothing wrong. He didn’t deserve that. We will look elsewhere for duck.

Roasted duck with duck sauce was phenomenal the authenticity I’ve been looking for! They only accept cash and there is a slight language barrier, but very nice and friendly people. This is the 3rd duck place I’ve had in China town and is by far the most authentic and flavorful duck I’ve had. They don’t have rice plates, but the roasted meat here is very good!

First time purchasing char siu and soy sauce chicken from Great BBQ. Lots of construction in the middle of Hudson street but worth the trip. There is only take away. Very happy with the quality.
