“2024.02 a very relaxing a la carte hot pot. Starting with coconut chicken soup. Then mala dish. Hot pot. Marinade beef is better than fatty beef. Don’t forget to order their coconut dessert. Really good. Their dragon fruit drink also good. Hot pot meat are fresh. Reasonable portions. The only point they lost is price.“
“We came across Empire Schezuan by googling one night, and never looked back. It is our go to! They are so friendly and accommodating (food allergy) on the phone every single time. The food is ALWAYS amazing; never oily or greasy. Everything tastes high quality every time we order. Delivery is always prompt, food is hot, driver is SO kind. I highly recommend this restaurant!!“
“Writing this review while I’m eating bad Chinese food in New Jersey, had me reminiscing about this place next to my old house. The garlic shrimp, sesame chicken and general Tso chicken are out of this world. I miss this place so much. Great food and great people. One of the best Chinese restaurants on the island. Highly recommend.“
“Used to be my go-to Chinese place a few years ago. Went basic with general tso combo to test the waters again. Food was decent. Portion and container shrunk considerably. Same shape but shallow. We notice. Overall not bad. Not sure why so many places just can't get this dish crispy“
“Excellent Sichuan restaurant. Authentic Sichuan dishes and great service. Take out only, but you can take the food and dine in at Tabaq Restaurant (excellent restaurant also - authentic Pakistani food) next door. Tabaq owners own Dragon Palace (some type of ownership). I usually do take out from both Dragon Palace and from Tabaq. Dragon Palace now serves halal food only.“
“Loved it! The food was so good, fresh and well made. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. We came in at an odd hour, midway between lunch and dinner and had we were warmly greeted and enjoyed a relaxed, delicious lunch. Varied menu. Plenty of vegetarian choices. The restaurant is small with booths and tables. Accessible. Parking nearby (paid).“
“Excellent dumpling! I ordered the chicken and shrimp dumplings. One order fried and another order steamed of each and they did not disappoint. The Chef knows what he/she is doing . I also had their chicken fried rice and it was not too salty. I would definitely go back there.“
“We love Simple Asia. They have excellent service - incredibly patient and friendly. It has one of those sushi and Chinese food mixes, and both are absolutely on point. This is our go-to Asian cuisine spot on the island. Whatever it is you choose, all of it is perfect. Go.“
“You know a Chinese restaurant is good when you tell four co-workers in Manhattan (one from Hong Kong, one from the PRC and two from Taiwan) that you are from Matawan and they say "Oh! That's where Shanghai Bun is located!" True story....“
“The food here was exceptionally yummy. I've recently been hesitant about ordering fish due to consistent disappointments elsewhere, but this place surpassed my expectations. Their flavor profile took me right back to the Goan style dishes I once loved. Definitely a must-visit restaurant!“
“Stop by here for lunch with a friend. Street parking only. It's not difficult for me to find a street meter parking. However, today is Thursday afternoon and I don't think it's a busy time for lunch. Food is decent. I got a lunch special and some barbecue skewers and appetizers. Flavor is good overall. Lunch specials comes with noodles with different meat option, and one meat skewer and one veggie skewer, and a drink; or 3 meats skewers, 2 veggie skewers, rice and a drinkI picked a noodle and 2 skewers. I think the skewers are overcooked slightly. A bit dry to me. But flavor is 7/10.I ordered a spicy beef noodle soup-9/10. I like soup noodle. I ordered a medium spicy one. It's not that spicy to me. The beef is bit dry but the flavor is decent. My friend ordered the shrimp noodle and she said the flavor is good and the shrimp is big and fresh. 8/10Popcorn chicken-8/10Sweet potato fries-10/10Price is fair to me. Recommended you to try this place if you're craving for Chinese barbecue skewers or soup noodles.“
“My family and I order take out from here all the time and let me tell you, they’re consistent. The food is always delicious and fresh, and the portions for the price are unmatched. Our favorite thing to get is the poke bowl combo with a sushi roll. This place just became our go to dinner spot when we’re hungry and too lazy to cook. Definitely recommend!“
“Visiting Redbank and dined here for the 1st time. My wife and I both started with a delicious generous portion of soup. I will say that the wontons were amazing. We then shared the Beijing duck. It was outstanding and could have fed 3. As of 3/23, they did not have a liquor license. Although they do allow BYB which we did not know, no fault of theirs. Highly recommend if you are a duck lover. Watching the plates[fantastic portions] run by, made me believe their other dishes are outstanding as well. Great service. Sorry no photos. I was too busy stuffing my face!“
“I like the food here,but the prices keep going up and the portions going down. They never put napkins or forks or spoons or condiments in the bag so make sure you ask when you pick up or order food for delivery. I think they have the best general chicken in the area. So I’d recommend overall.“
“Not even gonna lie, food is fire. I go to Brooklyn tech and when I come back home. This place is so nice, everything about it is amazing l. I can start off with the food first, amazing lo mein. It just melts in your mouth, the owner face us free spring rolls out of kindness, when you go to taste of china, get ready for a blast.Average techionian“
“When I lived on the Island I always looked forward to Kim's they make a great Garlic Sauce. It's been a while since I've had their food so I suggested ordering from them this past weekend while visiting my family. We ordered the Chicken w/ Garlic Sauce, small boneless spare ribs, dumplings/egg rolls and the Moo Shu Pork. Everything turned out great... certainly better than a lot of the options I have available in Manhattan.“
“I've been on the hunt for decent Chinese food for quite some time. Well, I finally found our new place! We never ordered from Rice Bowl before so we decided to try to large selection of food...chicken wings, wonton soup, egg rolls, beef with broccoli, bbq spare ribs, shrimp dumplings, mei fun, and shrimp in garlic sauce. It was delicious! I'm so happy to have found a Chinese restaurant that we enjoy!“
“Love coming here for dim sum since there aren't many in the area. They have all the classic dim sum dishes, and the dining area is spacious and comfortable. It is a bit pricey, but the food is good especially if you're ordering their main dinner items. They're specialty is Cantonese style dishes, so I would probably stay away from their "take-out" type offerings.Parking: There's a larger parking lot behind the building. The spots in front of the building tend to be full most of the time.“
“The best Chinese food on SI. I usually don’t care much for Chinese food but since this place opened, I am hooked. Mae & Anthony are such hard working amazing owners and hosts. Orange Beef & Crab Rangoon are out of this world. The best I have tasted. Whole Fish, Eggplant with garlic sauce are also top-notch. Food is absolutely amazing and I highly recommend!!!“
“I cannot say enough good things about this place. The service, food and pricing are all exceptional! I actually found out this place from a coworker of mine and figured I would give it a go because I was in search of a different Chinese food restaurant to start ordering from. I won't name places, but when I first moved to the area in 2010 I went to a different place for a few years but their food quality went WAY down (and way before Covid so that can't even be the excuse). Then I found another place who's food I liked but after Covid their prices skyrocketed.So I gave this place a chance and so glad I did. The pricing is beyond reasonable, the food is always delicious and the service is always fantastic. The lady that takes the orders and takes care of the customers is SO friendly and appreciative.The only downfall is they do not deliver and I don't believe they have anything set up with GrubHub etc. So if you're not close to them, then it could be a hike to go pick up the food.But if you do, it'll be worth it ;)HIGHLY recommend!“
“Their General Tso's chicken is amazing! I stop by there every Friday on my way home from NY and I love it! And sometimes I get delivery and they are always on time and the food is fresh and hot! I highly recommend this restaurant. And they have sushi too!“
“My honest review on Wongs, restaurant: Chinese food is absolutely amazing! With its rich history, diverse flavors, and unique cooking techniques, Chinese cuisine has captivated taste buds all over the world. From the fiery spices of Sichuan cuisine to the delicate flavors of Cantonese dishes, Chinese food offers a wide range of flavors and textures that are sure to satisfy any palate. One of the things that makes Chinese food so special is its emphasis on balance and harmony. Traditional Chinese cooking often incorporates the concept of Yin and Yang, striving to create dishes that are not only delicious but also nourishing and beneficial for the body. This focus on balance is evident in the careful selection of ingredients, the artful combination of flavors, and the meticulous preparation methods. Chinese cuisine is also known for its wide variety of ingredients and cooking styles. From stir-frying and steaming to braising and deep-frying, each cooking method brings out unique flavors and textures in the dishes. Whether it's the crispy skin of Peking duck, the tender morsels of Dim Sum, or the fragrant aroma of a bowl of hot and sour soup, Chinese food never fails to impress with its culinary diversity. One cannot talk about Chinese food without mentioning the incredible range of regional cuisines. China is a vast country with diverse landscapes and climates, and each region has its own culinary traditions and specialties. From the spicy dishes of Sichuan to the hearty noodles of Shanxi, exploring the different regional cuisines of China is like embarking on a culinary adventure. But it's not just the flavors and techniques that make Chinese food so good. It's also the cultural significance and the sense of community that is often associated with sharing a meal. In Chinese culture, food is not just sustenance; it is a way to bring people together, to celebrate special occasions, and to show love and hospitality. Whether it's a family gathering, a festive banquet, or a casual meal with friends, the act of sharing a delicious Chinese meal creates a sense of connection and joy. So, whether you're craving a plate of General Tso's chicken, a steaming bowl of dumplings, or a comforting bowl of fried rice, Chinese food is sure to satisfy your taste buds and leave you wanting more. It's a cuisine that celebrates flavors, traditions, and the joy of gathering around the table. So, go ahead and indulge in the wonderful world of Chinese cuisine! ???“

“OMG. Got so sick of ho-hum Chinese food. Nothing worth the money. Got Xing Wok flyer in our mailbox so decided to give it a takeout try. Guy who answered and took our order was so nice and helpful.. Food was SO awesome. Ordered the combo Chicken Shrimp with Mixed Vegetables with Pork Fried Rice. Chock full of flavor AND ingredients. Have enough for tomorrow too. My husband had Wonton Egg Drop Soup and Pork LoMein and was very pleased. We will SO order from them again. Timely delivery and pleasant delivery guy. Can u tell we are now fans???“
“Hands down one of my most favorite Chinese places in the area… moo shu pork & hot & sour are one of the best versions/dishes I ever had. Egg foo young yum too. I do shrimp. I lived in the area @ 35 years; and anytime, I am around, I go there. Plus the price point is great there too! Highly competitive prices (which means cheaper than other Chinese restaurants in the area) & way better quality & portions….Love the place honestly Well Done ??P.S.Just get chili ?️ oil soon. It will up the game.P.S.S. Don’t know if they still deliver, but when they did, wonderful drivers…“
“My family and I had lunch here today. We had: -chicken rice soup -wonton and egg drop soup -lemon chicken -sesame chicken -pepper steak -paradise shrimp The portions were huge and delicious. The staff was friendly and very efficient. We will be back!“
“Thankfully Sultans Palace has been open for all these years.Everytime, that I have a urge for quality food made with love. I go to Sultans Palace where the food is fresh and even more delicious than the last time. I am a forever eater at Sultans Palace. General sho chicken, egg Rolls, chicken noodle soup, and their Sushi is to Die for...Thank you for satisfying my hunger everytime.“
“J&P has very good Chinese food, the best in the area. This restaurant was 5 stars when they had waitstaff, simply awesome, but no more now, not sure why. The staff is not very friendly and does not really seem to appreciate their customers. If you don’t mind that, pay them a visit.Parking: Plenty of parking spots available for dine-in or takeout.“
“I’ve been eating at this place for a while. It’s pretty good standard Chinese food oh and the sushi is always good. The reason I’m writing this review is because of their delivery driver. An older gentleman came to my door with a smile very friendly. After he handed me the bag he extended his hand for a hand shake and said happy new year. You don't see that type of kindness/friendliness every day. Give panda house a try good people work there“
“I'll start by saying I've only gotten take out from here, never dined in, so I'm not sure of their dining service. They're take out is great though. The food is great. Delivery times are normal. They're also on local delivery services. They're prices are a little bit more than most for Chinese food, but well worth it. When I first moved to this area several years ago I had a really hard time finding a Chinese restaurant I liked. One of the main issues I had was finding a decent egg roll, among other dishes. This place met all my expectations and more.“
“We have been going to Jinli for several years, even though it’s a 45 minutes drive from our house — we love the food and staff and have never been disappointed. The place has something for everyone and the flavors are authentic and delicious. Our favorites are Fish filet in Sichuan chili oil, cumin lamb and the kids love the sesame chicken! Strongly recommended for amazing Sichuan food for the whole family!“
“I recently ordered from here and the food was amazing. Some notable dishes are their general tso chicken, boneless spare ribs, and their beef and broccoli was amazing too. I would definitely order food from them again, as this Staten Island spot is my favorite.“
“Amazing been ordering from here and dining inside for 14 years with my mom could never go wrong with lucky fortune great prices and always consistent good food and always was a fast delivery for me thankful for this place being around so long“
“I ordered dragon phoenix, vegetable lo mein, and sesame wonton, and they were all so delicious with the sesame wonton being so flavorful and the jumbo shrimp from the dragon phoenix taste so fresh and the chicken with white meat tastes so juicy and crunchy with great flavorVegetarian options: Veg lo mein and mix veg are both really good“
“I've been looking for a good Chinese restaurant in Perth Amboy. I've tried them all and finally found a good one. Back in the, I used Diamond then Lings but this is the new best Chinese restaurant in Amboy. And they have an excellent and friendly website to place your order.“
“I honestly eat there dumplings almost every week!!! This restaurant has the best dumplings never had a bad experience. I get them delivered or pick it up, it is always hot and fresh.Kid-friendliness: I brought my daughter in and placed an order and the lady that took my order was very kind and gave her a lollipop ?.“
“Tell you what 2 trips to China chef in 2 weeks and I think we may have found a Chinese food takeout restaurant. The first trip was for wonton soup, solid. The second trip was for a full dinner. Roast pork egg foo young was a large portion and delicious. Boneless spareribs were outstanding. Spicy wontons were good according to my wife. The boneless chicken was very different than the norm, well seasoned sauce and vegetables while the chicken was deep fried individual pieces, different but good. Chinese eggplant with garlic sauce was good, spicy but the eggplant needed to be cooked longer. Egg rolls were solid. No seating inside, strictly takeout but the husband and wife are friendly and thankful for the business. Plenty of parking in a shopping center on 35. Looking forward to trying other dishes.“
“Real shame these bad review ..Seems it's either new owners or new management. And since food and service has been very good again the way it used to be many years ago. It's a shame these new people have to inherit the old reviews but hope other will try them.“
