Mr. Yung's is still open and still very good.  I consider it by far the best Cantonese (really the Hong Kong subset of Cantonese) restaurant in Chinatown, and one of the best in the area.  Go-Lo's is ok.  It's a simple restaurant, but has some good dishes.  It seems that most good Chinese restaurants have several menues.  It helps to go with someone who can read Chinese so you know what the Chinese cards on the walls say.  E.g., one time I was at a Chinese restaurant and the handwritten card on the wall was snow pea leaves.  I will always get them, if available.  I always ask.
