Stopped by on my way home to try it for the first time. I should not have tried the fish quesadilla. I wasn't expecting fresh fish but something more than microwaved breaded frozen fish that tasted past its expiration date. The chicken quesadilla was fine, good flavor and the cheese was melted through but nothing a 10 year-old couldn't throw together at home as an after school snack. I can't comment on their Chinese food but, overall, from this quick experience they get two stars for a fair price and portion size, but not three because I'm not all that interested in coming back except maybe to try their Chinese food.

This place has the best bang for your buck Chinese food in the Gowanus/Park Slope area. The food is so much better than the take-out place on the corner of my block that I walk the extra 2 blocks there (I'm too cheap to call for delivery when it's so close). Also, they have General Tso's shrimp, which my gf LOVES!!!Beside the food and the speed. Hearing the cook switch from Chinese to the deepest cleanest American accent in an instant is awesome too.I've never tried the Tex-Mex portion of it but I usually stay away from that Mexican food made in a Chinese place...but that's just me.

Americanized chinese. This means you have a slew of options from fried rice to lo mein to chicken wings. The flavor is not bad and the quality is decent but don't be expecting to eat something authentic. That is not what Di Di is about.I enjoyed the Szechuan chicken here (which is really just like regular chicken with flakes of hot pepper in the thickened soy based sauce).

Great local spot. They make a mean hot and sour soup. Their prices have gone up over the last 6 months, so I usually don't order a whole lot from there anymore.Also, don't get their mexican. It's not that good compared to Fresh Tortillas on 7th.
