Chinese Restaurants near Essex

“We were skeptical about this Chinese spot. We go to our usual one in the city, buy my sister in law told us this place is really good. She was right! The lady who answered the phone was so sweet. The shrimp egg rolls were really good. I got the shrimp and broccoli in garlic sauce and it was AMAZING. My husband got General Tsou chicken and he cleaned his plate. We are definitely going back!“

“The food was SO good! I ordered chicken with broccoli and chicken egg foo young. The chicken was very tender and flavor was so fresh! The egg foo young had just the right amount of chicken in them and was so delicious. Definitely will be visiting again, i recommend coming here too!“

“This was our 1st time trying No.1 Chinese. I didn't read the reviews until after my husband had placed the order. I must say I was expecting the worst. I was pleased to hear that the lady who took the order was friendly and helpful as we had a few special requests. The food arrived in a timely manner and we both agreed it was delicious. They even put a handwritten note on the special dish so we didn't need to check them to find out for ourselves. We are definitely going to order from them in the future.“

“The food is literally AMAZING. Order the food, went to get it took about 3 mins to get up the street. Took them 1 min to get the food to us lol. It's steaming hot and really really really good. 9 out 10. Lost a point cause the crab ragoons are just a tad sweet for my liking. But all in all delishhhh“

“We partnered with this establishment many times in catering/festivals and has truly been a successful partnership. Yunnan Asian cuisine is a bit difference from our usual Cantonese Asian cuisine however, Water Song has always exceeded our expectation with their authentic ingredients.“

“The sign said they open at 11, I got here at 10:30 and they still served me with NO ISSUES. They prices were VERY GOOD! The lunch special comes with your choice of an egg roll or soup. All for under 9$. They also give a NICE portion. Food was very fresh and tasted AMAZING! I highly recommend this place!“

“Outstanding! We went to the Fallsgrove location. Everything was delicious, no complaints. We will definitely be back!!!“

“Their Yangzhi Manlu is really the best tasting real ingredient I have ever tasted. They also have pork meat buns that I can never get tired of eating. I was closed on Monday and since they closed on Monday, I haven’t eaten their food for a long time. I live in a nearby restaurant. Friends, don’t miss it, it’s worth a try?“

“The dry fried cauliflower, pork soup dumplings and hot n sour duck soup were all utterly amazing!“

“I admit the restaurant is very cold. Ignore that. Get the crab wontons. idc what else you order. get those crab wontons, don't bother sharing, and enjoy the crunchiest outside with the fluffiest inside not to mention like 3 times the filling most places do.also got the dumplings and they meet/slightly exceed expectations. hot and sour soup is wonderful. the chicken/pork/shrimp fried rice is also great.enjoy the wontons.“
