20 Best Chinese Restaurants in Newark

“Had a great meal at ugly dumpling, greeted with great service right away! Service was personable and accommodating to my stroller and a high chair for toddler. The establishment is extremely clean and beautifully designed. Waitress was helpful in assisting with menu, family style small plates, 3-4 plates for a couple suggested. We loved the dumplings with spicy sauce on side and sesame noodles. So fun to see everyone working on hundreds of beautiful, delicate, and delicious dumplings! 🥟 thank you ugly dumpling team!“

“Yum!!! 3 roll special The house bread was to die for Love the lighting and atmosphere Will be back for sure!“

“Delicious“

“My favorite Chinese take out food! If you're looking for a cheap yet delicious meal, look no further! My personal favorite items include the hot and sour soup and the roast pork lo mein lunch special, which I have ordered multiple times! The only issue I've had is with consistency and wait times. Sometimes the food isn't as fresh and as well seasoned as other times, but the food has never tasted bad. My advice: order the lunch special & order via phone or their website ahead of time!Lastly, I think this place has the best hot and sour soup in the area, great balance of flavors and good portion of meat. Also, the lunch special contains generous portions!!“

“I order here several times but today I ordered the pineapple mango smoothie and it was one if the best smoothies I had in a very long time. You can taste the freshness of the mango and pineapples. I gave it to my son and even he stated it was great Dad...

You must come try their smoothies and teas if you are close by to enjoy the freshness and best quality products and service in Delaware. I give them 10************“

“I have to first say i called damn near every chinese restaurant around. I refuse to pay door dash or grub hub. This great location delivers. The food WWWWOOOOW off the hook delicious and the portions right on point. Big fat egg rolls. Do not bother calling the other places they have small ribs that i got and are way more then normal size from other locations. I dont bullshit on my reviews when im in this area ill never go to anyone but them...“

“I have eaten here frequently during my time at UD. Never once disappointed in the food, it is always very consistent and very good. Plenty of vegetarian options as well. The kung pao tofu and hot & sour soup are my go-tos. The price to amount of food you receive ratio is one of the best in town. Highly recommend!!“

“A Chinese food takeaway that has been operating in Capitol Trail Newark Delaware for over a decade. The taste of the food was so mediocre that it could even be described as shoddy. The reason for giving them a five star rating is that they solve many of the workers' daily meals and are affordable. The Chinese are hard-working, and even the epidemic has not stopped them from moving forward. We need to applaud their professionalism.???“

“We have been getting our Chinese food from Here for years. The food is excellent! We never go anywhere else. And I really like the lady that works there. She’s so nice. In fact, we’re gonna order there tonight!So we just ate our food! Grand slam. Shrimp rolls , I had shrimp with cashews and broccoli, spicy! Pork friend rice, crab rangoons, hubby had general Tao chicken- fresh- hot and sour soup -shrimp roll pfr- all so good. Thank you!“

“I highly recommend the guo bao rou (sweet and sour pork) and the liu rou duan (sautéed pork) at this restaurant. It’s probably the best Northeastern Chinese cuisine in the Greater Philadelphia area. I heard from the owner that they might be selling the place soon, so make sure to enjoy it while you can. Don’t miss out on this gem!“

“Very nice owner. Has a loyal clientele, as I've often overheard her greeting customers by name. :-) Their eggplant in garlic sauce and sesame tofu are my go-to's (I don't eat meat). Their sesame tofu has a nice crispy-not-too-soft texture, which I love. They always ask if you want sauces and chopsticks, which I really appreciate (as I don't like to avoid wasted packets and single use plastic). Take out only. The plaza that it's in can only be entered & exited on the Wilmington-bound side of Kirkwood hway.“

“If your picky and don’t know what to eat simple banging meal is the fried chicken wings with veggie fried or white rice. The Sesame or General Tso w/ White rice will have you break dancing and spinning on your head like it’s 1984 because it’s that good“

“I've been coming to Joy Garden for decades now - living right around the corner and moving in to my childhood home has allowed me to share with my family some of the restaurants that I've always loved.Joy Garden was always a reminder of the way Chinese Food should be. I've traveled a lot over the years and I always find myself comparing other restaurants to this place. No one has been able to live up to them.With that being said, I've noticed a definite down-turn in quality in the past few years. This restaurant has been run by the same family for several decades - I always recognize the woman who I've seen for years, who is always a joy to speak with, and I've even now met her son taking orders, which is always a pleasure to see the family continuing the tradition of their hard-worked business!I believe that the economy has caused an uptick in cost; however, the increase combined with a lower-than-expected quality has been a sad disappointment. The restaurant is in dire need of revamping, and I would normally be able to look past this for quality food, but I'm left lacking from what they used to be.Perhaps changes in food regulations have contributed to recent changes, possibly Covid issues have affected the way things are done... this restaurant still offers "steamed chicken dumplings," which are near-impossible to find elsewhere... but things simply aren't the same.I couldn't imagine finding another place to satisfy my needs, but rising prices, lack of transparency regarding pricing and an overall change of food-quality, I cannot in good conscience rate them as highly as my nostalgia would wish.I wish these folks the best and hope for better days. I will still continue to patronage this establishment but hope they find a way to bring things back to their golden age so that generations more can enjoy the quality that I had come to rely on.Please do continue to support these wonderful people, as they are truly great what they do!“

“This is one of the better Chinese takeout places in the area, and I've been coming here for years and years. I think the influx of negative reviews are either the competition or people are mixing up this restaurant with one in NJ or something. EITHER OR I highly recommend this one.“

“I have been getting my sushi here for years and everything is always so fresh, delicious, and affordable. It is difficult to find good sushi at such a reasonable price, with no compromise in terms of taste and quality. Little Teriyaki has a great variety of rolls. They also have lunch specials and a happy hour special. The staff is always kind and courteous and I've never had an issue with my order. This place is always my go-to!“

“Tried a Chinese authentic restaurant in Maryland where the have the hot pot tray with whole fish like sea bass and tilapia so I was looking for a Chinese Sichuan restaurant and I found this one; tried it, it wasn’t as great as the Maryland tea but came close, now it’s our to go since it’s closer than Maryland. Their skewers are great to the egg plant; will try other menu as well.“

“Not the greatest, but certainly not bad.
Decent price for decent food that is made SUPER quick ?
Located in a convenient area, I recommend stopping by for a meal on your lunch break or in-between errands ??
Not really a place for dinner and there’s very little room to sit inside.
One suggestion I have is to update the menu pictures inside the restaurant, they look 15 years old!“

“This is the best Chinese place around. Also have the most friendly service, I am greeted like family when I come in. The food is amazing. Very large portions always taste fresh. The place is clean and willing to accommodate specific requests. My family usually orders every Sunday! We have tried others and nothing compares. For large order they are always quick and ready when I arrive.“

“I don’t understand the bad reviews. This is one of the best Chinese restaurants that I found in Newark Delaware being as though I’m from Philly and Philly got a lot of good Chinese spots. It was hard to find a good Chinese restaurant, but I finally found 1 which is this one! I seen some people complaining about the food overcook but I personally like my food overcooked. And maybe they seen peoples reviews about their Customer Service so they gotten better because when I call, they don’t have an attitude with me. You should give them a try.“

“I love there food I could eat here everyday.“
