5 Best Asian Restaurants near Barnegat

“Tucked neatly into the corner of a new outdoor mall in Barnegat , Pan Asia is a welcoming Asian eatery that offers flavors of Thailand, China & Japan. They also have a nice gluten-free menu, from which I sampled a salad with ginger dressing and Chicken Mai Fun. The veggies in the salad were very fresh, cold & crisp and the dressing was savory & just a little sweet. A refreshing start to the meal. Our server informed me that their Mai Fun dish is quite popular, and I can see why. A generous portion of rice noodles with chicken & vegetables cooked in a delicious garlicky sauce. Too often, when I’ve had Mai Fun (especially gluten free) the flavor was bland, and I’ve had to add gf soy sauce. Not here! The dish was just perfect as-is, right from the kitchen. Portion was large as well. My friends also enjoyed their General Tso’s chicken & shrimp in black bean sauce.
The interior here is rather basic, with hard wooden chairs that do not encourage you to linger after your meal. But Pan Asia is a great choice in Barnegat, and just two minutes off the Parkway.“

“I have been ordering from this restaurant for over 20 years.
The food has always been consistently well prepared and the counter service is always friendly.
I have had all the spicy dishes they offer except seafood. I always ask for extremely spicy and they deliver the heat well.“
