“First time , passed the area over the years many times but never stop. Decided to go and not disappointed at all. Great positions, I over ordered cause I got told to try the Hunan chicken and I’m glad I did it’s good, got my reg chicken wings with veg fried rice and im satisfied 💯 Definitely will be ordering again!“

“It's a nice little Chinese restaurant, they have plenty of seating to go around, simple and basic, and you don't have to wait a long time to get your orders, they are quick and efficient, I recommend this location if you are in the area...“

“I found this place via google due to their great ratings! I’ve been a loyal costumer for a few years. Today I am here writing this review!. The restaurant looks clean. They have a few workers I think it’s family owned! Food has always been on point!. They never missed anything in their deliveries. The wings are decent size. Never had issues!.“

“Had a fantastic first experience at Corner Chinese!“

“The food was honestly amazing - so, so delicious. The only thing I’d change is the music, just because it didn’t really match the vibe, but that’s totally my own opinion. Everything we tried was great, and the service was really good too. Definitely recommend this place!“

“Ottimo ristorante di Ramen (giapponese e non quello "tarocco" o fatto con quello istantaneo del supermercato) che offre anche una fantastica selezione di ravioli. Prezzi tutto sommato accettabili per la media della città e acqua gratuita. Posto piccolo, accogliente, staff cordiale e velocissimo. Porzioni corpose quindi ordinate con cautela o non riuscirete a finire tutto.“

“Great service and fabulous food“

“Had an amazing experience at this PF Changs, our server Greg was extremely attentive and friendly. Love it here! Make sure to get the crab wontons as an app:)“

“I stopped in here yesterday for lunch and it was without a doubt top 5 foods I’ve ever eaten, both inside and outside the U.S. The malatang hot pot broth was so savory and umami I couldn’t believe how good it was. Medium spice level was just a tad too much for me and I handle spice pretty well (should have listened to the girl at the front counter…). Cant wait to go back and try the other hot and dry pots.“

“Owen and the staff were all fantastic. Patrick at the bar was very friendly and knowledgeable. I will definitely return each time I'm in NYC. Everything was amazing. Pork dumplings, chocolate dumplings with the sea salt foam, and their signature shochu sesame espresso martini are an absolute must. I'll be dreaming of them until next time.“

“My family always goes to PF Chang’s for my birthday and other big occasions, and Estephanie made our night fantastic! She was always making sure to check in on our table, and made us feel welcome the entire evening. The food is always delicious, but her service went above and beyond. Can’t wait to come back again!!!“

“Absolutely amazing meal! Was recommended to us by a friend, and we recommend it to you. A quick walk from our Broadway show, the meal was a perfect night cap. The mango margaritas were the perfect combo of sweet and spice; the cauliflower appetizer was bold and perfectly crunchy; the aloo gobi was wonderfully catered to our spice level and still full of flavor; the flaan was to die for. Resturant manager Rakesh Arban did an awesome job taking care of us. The atmosphere included colorful decor, mellow ambiance, and easy to talk to one another despite a somewhat full resturant.

There are stairs down to the entrance door. There are two single stall restrooms. The price was very reasonable given it's location and portion sizes.“

“Delicious Miso, Spring Rolls, Dumplings and Hibachi!!! Really nice to sit down and eat a hot meal after a long day!!!“

“This has always been my go-to Chinese restaurant, best chicken wings ever! My only problem is the barber shop next door, I believe the Chinese restaurant needs their own

parking: NEW UPDATE: The city should help with the parking and help fix the restaurant, it would be nice, because those Chinese employees work really hard to help the customers, so it would be a nice gesture, I am also glad that they have two days off now, they deserve it...“

“Best First Date Place in NYC 🩷“

“Un régal qualité quantité c était parfait“

“Little disappointed at this place. Saw they had Crispy Beef with Fresh Honey Walnuts Beef with a bed of steamed broccoli in a sweet brown sauce topped with sugared walnuts. Not crispy as from can see in pic. Was this really beef also? Walnuts were plain as well.Steamed Spinach Dumplings were a bit dry . Hunan Dumplings Spinach and beef dumplings topped with spicy peanut sauce. Spicy. I got not spicy but were very good. Would I try again. Yes think I would.“

“Awesome!!! Great food!!!!“

“Great food and great service. The food reminds me of home and is reasonably priced. We keep coming back for the ox tail stew, ribs, beef steak, porkchops, dumplings and the boneless chicharonnes de pollo. Most meals are served with white or yellow rice and beans or vegetables. If you want to try something different, they have the beef liver and squid ink fried rice which remind me of squid ink Paella. The combination meals are a great option to try out different dishes. The staff and owners always greet you with a warm welcome.“

“Deliciously freshly prepared food. I came here for the first time and was skeptical about eating here as most take out places are not very appealing to the eye. This spot is in a class of its own. I found the food tasty and fresh which is rare. I recommend the vegetable lo mein and the Singapore mei fun. Didn’t take photos this time but definitely will on my next visit.“

“I recently visited Yangji, a fantastic lamb skewer restaurant. The skewers are perfectly seasoned and cooked, full of flavor every time. The staff are super friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, perfect for enjoying great food with friends or family. I’ll definitely be coming back highly recommend Yangji if you’re craving delicious lamb skewers!“

“excellent Lo Mein. Great location.“

“Delicious dumplings and great service. Everything tasted fresh, portions were great, and the flavors were on point. It’s the perfect place for a casual meal or takeout. The staff was super nice and accommodating, and we’ll definitely be back!“

“Authentic Cantonese cuisine. I was brought up in Guangzhou and these dishes here are the same delicious as the ones I had back in Guangzhou.“

“We had the Mala Xian Guo (spicy hotpot) and it was great overall. I wouldn’t recommend to put the bean curd roll and fried dough to it because it melted when it was cooked. An uncle was working all by himself when we went there but it was impressive he had everything covered. I’d come here again to eat Mala.“

“I love this Chinese spot, the food is delicious, I drive down this spot to get my fave lunch special even though I have a chinese restaurant near me. It's the sauce for me.

Parking: Lots of parking spot that are free“

“The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Every dish had that authentic taste you can only get at a truly good Chinese restaurant. The portions were generous, the service was quick and friendly, and the atmosphere was super welcoming. I especially loved how everything came out hot and well-seasoned without being too salty or greasy.“

“Super impressed by how authentic the food here is. We just moved to NJ from California and have been looking for an authentic Chinese restaurant that’s not just about chow mein or general tso. Forgot to take pictures of all dishes. The spicy dishes have very complex tastes than just spicy, and the non spicy dishes are also super fresh and flavorful. The restaurant does get busy because it’s very popular amongst Chinese people, but the staff is always attentive and makes sure that all of our needs are met. Overall, a great experience and we will definitely come back.“

“Great food & service you know it's good when you see Asian familys coming in.“

“Excellent food and service we love this restaurant“

“Thoroughly enjoyed authentic non-American style Chinese dishes without going over the bridge/s. Food - they have so many options and 4 dishes we ordered were all flavorful. Atmosphere - it's a no-frill and comfortable setting. Service was prompt. I'll be going back with more people so that more dishes can be ordered to share and experience together!“

“I like this place better than the old place. The girls in here are crazy fun and they’re comfortable to deal with. They don’t have bad attitudes and they’re very sweet. Nice I deal with them all the time pleasant to deal with And the pretty girls are nice to deal with I like them actually“

“This was our first time trying these dishes, and they were absolutely phenomenal. The flavors were fresh and well-balanced, and you could really taste the quality of the ingredients. The service was excellent. Extremely attentive, friendly, and professional from start to finish!!! The location is great as well, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this place!“

“Great food, even better service. Nothing to complain about. Their boneless spare ribs and pork fried rice is the best, love their cheese wontons and egg rolls too. This place is super consistent, I’ve not had a bad order of food. Staff is always friendly; I was short on change once and before I could run to get some more, they let it slide.
Top notch restaurant, lucky to have them around.“

“Delicious food, cooked to perfection“

“I love eating the plant base food with so much flavor, their juices are amazing!“

“We have ordered numerous times from this place. I love all the people there. They are all so lovely and patient. We absolutely love their pork fried rice, general tso chicken, and chicken mai fun. It’s really hard to find good fried rice that isn’t yellow or red. This one is exactly right, smoky and flavorful. Their egg rolls are also good.“

“I recently had the pleasure of visiting your local business, and the experience was outstanding. The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring I felt valued from the moment I walked in. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the products offered. The quality of the goods was exceptional, clearly crafted with care and attention to detail. Overall, it was a delightful experience that I would highly recommend to others.“

“THIS is the take away chinese from your youth in the city; takes the places of Mee’s Noodle Shop as absolutely delicious in every facet. Friendly staff. Had the house special chow ho fun. Needed a bit more flavor, but was delicious and fresh!“

“*Wrote this review on yelp already but it had a word limit. So this review will act as the full review as it will contain all the items I’ve tried* This place is phenomenal in every aspect. The food is very authentic, flavorful, and all items are reasonably priced. I tried out their food on Oct. 3 and again on the 9th. The first time I did a take out and the second time I did a dine-in. It is THAT delicious that I needed to create a Yelp account to write my review for them and is absolutely worth my travel from Staten Island to downtown. Below is a list of foods that I have tried plus my take on them from both of my visits there. I'll write it in the order of which I tried it. There'll be pictures of food, the menu, and the restaurant itself. It's super homey and welcoming! A definite must! I'll be going back again next week to try out other items that I have not yet had the chance to have. 1) The pork rougamo: It is like a savory crispy pancake sliced down the middle sandwiching juicy and mouthwatering pork belly. My friend who doesn't normally eat pork belly because it's so fatty, LOVED it so much that we had to get it again the second time we went together. It's got the perfect amount of meat and crunch to it. Just make sure that if you do not plan to eat it right away, please re-heat it in a toaster oven so that it'll maintain it's crispiness. (The heat of it in the bag might soften it a little but it won't ruin the experience! I promise you!) 2) Pan-Fried pork dumplings: The skin that is used to wrap the dumplings in is not too thin or too thick. It's got just the right amount to it. The pork filling itself is extremely juicy and flavorful! They don't cheat you out on the fillings either. You'll definitely get a satisfying amount of meat and wrapping with every bite. If you like spicy oil like I do, it'll definitely enhance it even more! This is also an item that requires some time to make because they pan fry it fresh! (If you're in a hurry, make sure to call ahead for your order.) It's not like other places who have it already pre-fried and just reheat it making it lose it's juiciness from over cooking when an order is place. That's an extreme plus in my book! Obviously, I made sure to get it again the second time I was there. 3) Stewed Duck Leg: This is absolutely tasteful! It's not like your typical roast duck that you'd find in Chinatown hanging in front of a window; full of fat and lingering gamey taste. When I took my first bite, I was not expecting to be exploded with flavor and lean meat. My friend never liked roast duck and has always been "yuck" about it gave this a try, she ended up eating 3/4 of it! She couldn't stop herself from picking at it! So if you have never had duck or have not had a good experience with duck before, this is definitely worth trying! And for those of you who do like duck, you absolutely must! 4) Beef Stew Noodle Soup: We ordered this with hand-pulled noodles... and gosh, I can still taste it in my mouth. The perfect texture of the noodles; it was not soggy at all and had this nice bounce to it. I believe you can ask about preferences for noodles. The beef stew and the soup was the perfect combination! You can taste the beef in the soup and know that it has been stewed for a long enough time! It's not too salty and has a light feeling to it so that you don't feel overly stuffed afterwards. I highly recommend this item! 5) Steamed Fish Filet Dish: This was SOOOO good. If you're like me and absolutely hate fish with bones and always go for fish without, this is definitely a must! The size of the fish filet is phenomenal! I've been to places where the filet order is smaller than the size of my hand but this place, you get a very big and satisfying bite! Whatever it is that they coat it in has the perfect flavor to go with it. And there's some kind of broth that it's cooked in... let me tell you, that was heavenly! After I took my share“

“We were in the area and wanted some Chinese food, so we looked around the area and saw that this was one of the higher-rated places. I also noticed that they only take cash and do phone orders. We called on the phone, placed our order, then made our way over. We paid in cash and got the food. I ordered the boneless spare ribs combination platter, which comes with a roast pork egg roll and roast pork fried rice. We also got a small wonton soup. The boneless spare ribs were really good, striking a good balance between the sweet and savory that boneless spare ribs typically have. The roast pork egg roll was delicious and savory. Everything else, though, was not as good. The roast pork fried rice was pretty bland, as were the wontons and the broth that the wontons came with. For the price, though, it was reasonable, so I am not too upset.“

“The food is always fresh, flavorful, and served hot. Portions are generous, and everything I’ve tried so far has been delicious. The staff are friendly, efficient, and really make you feel welcome.

Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for great food and fast, reliable service. Definitely one of my go-to spots!“

“Great coffee and service. ☕️“

“Wonderful food. Soup is amazing. Service is great and the menu is huge“

“Ordered delivery late on a weeknight around 815 pm from a neighboring town and it was delivered just before 9 pm!
The food was fresh and delicious. I’m a health nut and had such a craving for Chinese food over the last month. This hit the spot and it didn’t make me sick.had the chicken and broccoli in brown sauce and the chicken fried rice. Will definitely order again.“

“Zheng helped me place a big catering order for my Law Firm’s lunch, she has the MOST patience in the world. She made it easy for me to place my order, kept in contact and even answers the phone * we all know how rare this is* she is the best. I highly recommend. This is our new favorite restaurant! Xoxo Zheng“

“I've been ordering here for years. Their food is amazing. I am picky about Singapore Mei Fun. I had found one takeout place in Mendham that has done really well for years and when I work in that area I order it. On a whim I asked them how theirs was and said I would let her know. It was amazing. Along with the rest of the food. The egg rolls are crispy and not a drop of grease. Outstanding Chinese takeout. Keep up the good work.“

“This place is a gem! My husband has been coming here since he’s been a kid. We were in the area and decided to stop in and eat. They were very pleasant and friendly on the phone when I called to place the order. The owner immediately recognized my husband once we arrived and was very welcoming. The place was very clean and the food was fresh and delicious. We will definitely be coming back here when we are in the area. Very happy this place hasn’t lost its touch over the years.“

“I know there’s a lot of Chinese food everywhere. But there’s always that one or few that you always go back to when you’re near by.. this one is allay nice and family oriented the younger one always there friendly and helping mom and dad.. great food and the “TOSTONES” there great here

Dietary restrictions: They have a variety of food menu“

“Great food! Great atmosphere and great view of the city!“
