I would like to share some information on kindness. Totowa Chinese Restaurant is the best! My husband has to wear oxygen because of COPD and has a heart problem. I always call in our order at this restaurant and they are always very nice and the food order is perfect. They went the extra mile when I called in the order last night as the gentleman said when your husband pulls up by the restaurant call me and I will bring his order out. I thought that this was going the extra mile and wanted to share good news! Bravo for being so kind!

I ordered chicken and broccoli and it was bland. Also, the pork fried rice looked like Spanish rice, which was also weird.

So the owner decides to serve me and my girlfriend old recooked shrimp lo mein and we got really sick with food poisoning and extremely sharp stomach pains. The pork dumplings were not fresh and we're old as well and in fact it is 3:06 a.m. in the morning right now and literally could not sleep because of the sharp stomach pains. So because of me leaving this one star review earlier in which I'm updating it now, the owner decides to retaliate by making two fake accounts on Google and leaving two one-star reviews for my business. It's very immature, very Petty and distasteful that instead of you making the situation right, you go and attack my business at the fact that I left you a one-star review for you serving me old food. Do not come to this establishment because you will get sick if they are not getting orders and the food is not moving. Also I would not be surprised what you do to people's food if they do not tip since this is the behavior and the way you act if you get a one-star review. I will be getting the health department involved for the Flies you have in your establishment and taking legal action for the fake reviews which is called libel.Update 11/14/2023 went to the urgent care and confirmed I did have food poisoning with an inflamed appendix. Take my advice, when you let Chinese food sit out and then recook it, it can cause serious illness which it did to me from them being careless with peoples health.

Yesterday, I ordered shrimp lo mein and steamed dumplings for take out. After eating both, I started to feel extremely sick. The food was old and not fresh. While I am writing this review, my stomach is hurting and I feel horrible. I have food poisoning and I know that I have it because I’ve had food poisoning before. This restaurant is nasty, the owner is disgusting and they do not take accountability for the food they cook and serve their customers. Instead of owning up to their bad food, the owner decided to make up 2 one star reviews and posted them on my boyfriend’s Google business page after he posted a one star review about the food. We know the reviews are fake because my boyfriend does not have any record of those 2 clients, That shows how childish and dumb the owner is. I will never eat from this restaurant again and will definitely be reporting them to the health department because no one should have to suffer the way that my boyfriend and I are suffering now. Also, their horrible food handling and practices need to be known to everyone that orders or is thinking of ordering from this restaurant. STAY AWAY FROM THIS RESTAURANT!!! You will thank me later.

Ordered takeout from restaurant and was served old recooked shrimp lo mein and old steamed dumplings. End result was food poisoning and extremely sharp pains in stomach. I left a one-star review on Google because how can you give people food like this and the owner basically decided to immaturely retaliate by making two fake accounts and leaving a one star review for my business and leaving a false statement. I will be taking legal action against your business. As a food business owner, you should know better than to serve old food to people and that was an issue you should make a priority to fix but no you make not one but two fake Google profiles and leave my business a one-star review. This should tell you how professional this restaurant owner is and that should tell you whether you should make the decision to order takeout from here or not. I wouldn't be surprised what you do to people's food if they don't tip

This was the worst, most bland Chinese food I’ve ever had. Everything except the sesame chicken lacked so much flavor. The sesame chicken was overly sweet and soy saucy. The egg roll was barely full and oddly sweet yet bland at the same time. A huge disappointment we won’t return again

Stopped here for the first time. The food is mediocre, flavorless and poorly made. Many other spots in the area that are 100000000x better.

Honestly the food was amazing. The seasoning was light and not too over powering and it didn't taste greasy at all. I ordered spicy beef with vegetables, the beef was so tender and it wasn't insanely spicy to the point where I couldn't taste the food.
Customer service is horrible very rude and disrespectful

Food is good

I don't know if I'll try it again...Fried rice was bland with too many onions. Orange chicken was not crispy, or particularly flavorful. Shrimp egg roll left me asking, "Where's the Shrimp?" And the fried shrimp had too much batter & was fried too long.

Haven't eaten from here in a long while, but tonight my family was so happy we did! Best Chinese food around. We all started eating and looked at each other and said the same thing, "This is the best Chinese food dinner ever!" At a time when small businesses are closing due to the ramifications of COVID, I'm really glad this place pushed through and has gotten even BETTER!!

Would absolutely recommend trying this place. Exceptional atmosphere, fresh food, fantastic customer service. I recommend this place.
