Cantonese Restaurants near Fort Lee, NJ

“Very nice I enjoyed the food“

“Great oyster mushroom and rice rolls“

“The flavor of this restaurant is actually not that far from what I had in China, and it's fairly authentic.“

“Great dinner, great setting, excellent service 👌“

“My brother and I came here for steamy, wonton noodle soup on a cold evening in Flushing. At a 6:40 pm arrival, the staff was kind enough to take our order despite having to close 20 minutes later. We both ordered the three topping noodle soups: he had egg noodles and beef tendon while I had flat rice noodles and beef stew. We had wontons and fish balls in both of our soups as well.

I’m not embellishing when I say this—the food was spectacular. Broth was clean and comforting, beef was tender and flavorful, the wontons were bigger (and better) than expected, and the fish balls went really well with the soup. You could also spice it up with condiments too. For about $13, Maxi’s offers a superb deal. That’s right. They set the bar high.

Tl;dr: Maxi’s Noodle’s has some of the best wonton noodle soups you can get at an affordable price from a staff with incredible hospitality. With their small yet cozy interior, this place is perfect for cold, fall/winter nights. Go visit ‘em!“

“CASH ONLY.
For the price, this is an excellent rice roll that is SUPER QUICK. No more waiting 40 minutes at any other location. The ladies working here will get your order in 3-5 minutes flat.
I highly recommend the egg rice roll and add scallions. They also keep sauces outside that are all delicious: hoisin, peanut sauce, soy sauce, and sriracha. I personally just added all 4 and it was delicious.

This is really great for the price and might now be my go to spot when I need this.“

“Our server was absolutely outstanding . I wish I could remember her name. The food was the best meal we ate in New York. I ambiance was perfect. The entire group was impressed and are still talking about it a week later. Would recommend to anyone.“

“Food was good. Sweet and sour chicken: chicken was cooked well and seemed like better quality than other places. Sauce flavor was not amazing. Everything else was pretty good and authentic Hong Kong dim sum. Staff look professional and you can tell they work hard. I have to be back on the weekend to try the baked pork buns! “

“Shockingly good dim sum. Very authentic and better than most other dim sum places I have been in Manhattan. The regular dishes are also very good and priced reasonably. Service is quick and attentive, and the servers speak both Cantonese and Mandarin. Definitely my new go to place for Cantonese food in the neighborhood.“

“Chicken, duck, pork, rice and cabbage—oh my. Super tasty. Out does everyone in the zip code. No exaggeration.“

“We recently went here for a small family wedding reception. There were many dishes including Assorted appetizers platter of jelly fish, crispy pork intestine, fried fish/ribs; King crab cooked in 3 ways (fried, steamed and soup-style), Ginger scallions lobsters, lobster with snow pea leaves, steamed fish, soup, crispy chicken and Fried tofu with beef, mushrooms and snow peas. All the dishes were seasoned well. I personally like more of the assorted appetizers platter (not a fan of the crispy pork intestine because it has a very unique taste to it) and the lobster with snow pea leaves. These two dishes are differently cooked compared to my experience from other restaurants. There were some friendly servers. An unique aspect of this place is there is an inside entrance to Artisan Tea & Coffee shop right next door. So if you want specialty drinks from Artisan but don’t want to walk in the cold then this inside entrance makes it very convenient.“

“We found a new Chinatown favorite here… highly recommend! ❤️“

“The food is delicious and great customer service. Will come again?“

“I came here for a friend's birthday dinner and we had an amazing time. The interior of the restaurant is spacious and I love the cozy but very Chinese decor. Our waitress was so nice, easy to talk to, and fun. The service was really quick.

We ordered hot and sour soup, peking pork, string beans, honey walnut shrimp, beef chow fun, short ribs, beef stew and radish casserole, and salted fish and eggplant casserole. Everything was delicious. My favorites were their peking pork, string bean, and casserole dishes. The honey walnut shrimp was good but the portions were okay for a group of 9. The beef chow fun was a great portion but I wish there was more flavor. Loved the short rib. They gave us complimentary watermelon at the end, as well as birthday flan for my friends and I. Had a great time and I think this is the perfect spot for some casual Chinese food with a big group of people (We got 10 dishes and the total ended up being only $240, post-tax for a group of 9! We all left STUFFED).“

“An upscale Cantonese restaurant that delivers on both flavor and presentation, though with prices to match. The interior is sleek and modern, a perfect spot for special occasions. We were super impressed by the flavor of every dish: the salt-baked chicken was incredibly tender and flavorful, the hot stone mushroom rice had rich umami notes and a delightful crispiness, and the scallion oil steamed fish was simple yet well executed with mostly deboned filets, the snow pea tips was hearty with chanterelle mushrooms added on top, and the braised abalone and pork was rich and decadent.

Every dish hit the mark, and the service was attentive and thoughtful throughout the meal. Overall, it’s a great spot for splurging on a special occasion or for a premium Cantonese dining experience.“

“Had dinner there tonight celebrating my mom’s birthday, good food attentive service“

“Got the brand sampler. A meal for $19.60.
Here’s what I thought of each item
Har gow / shrimp siu mai - 3/5, hard to get wrong, just didn’t love it, even with the soy sauce.
Chicken siu mai - 5/5, was my favorite
Sticky rice wrap - 1/5, mushroom and sticky rice was not my favorite
BBQ pork bun - 1/5, wasn’t my thing
Crispy shrimp roll - 4/5, pretty good“

“Looking for a hotpot with a twist? Check out Coco Hotpot ? , the coconut broth has this amazing sweet and savory flavor that hits just right. The Chicken so fresh and tender. Plus, their house-made sauce is chef’s kiss ? Perfect spot if you’re craving something new and delicious! ??

“I’m from China and had been long craving authentic good quality Chinese food. When I was in NYC this summer with my parents and boyfriend, we went to try this place out, and that was one of the best meal I had in my life! We tried Beijing duck and skewers as well as some vegetable dishes, everything was so delicious, nicely put together, and other items on the menu also looked authentic and delicious. Will visit this restaurant every time I come to NYC.“

“Incredible Food. Incredibly attentive and professional staff. Instant favorite.“

“Delicious dim sum and pan fried flounder!“

“This restaurant hits as a Hong Kong style morning breakfast place. I always come here for the satay beef instant noodle dish, and it comes topped with a fried egg. If you're here early enough, you get a free drink with it too! The curry fish balls were also delicious, and the toast will bring you back to those days when that was the simplest thing to eat in the morning. The service can be a bit slow at times, but they're getting better.“

“Super fresh food and top quality service. Thank you.“

“Our favorite restaurant in UWS. The service is great. We 💗 the food with a friendly ambiance. The restaurant is clean and goes above and beyond to ensure a memorable dining experience.“

“The flavor of this restaurant is actually not that far from what I had in China, and it's fairly authentic.“

“Several booths inside from Cantonese to Korean. Fresh rice paste and many more delicious dishes.“

“Superb food and presentation.. pleasantly surprised to find this level service and food in Manhattan’s original Chinatown! Felt like HongKong❣️“

“Emperor Seafood never disappoints, I have been here many, many times over the years. Each time when I am here, the service, food and ambiance is always great. I love their dim sums here. Cooked to order and no trolleys circling the entire restaurant. Service is fast and friendly. Music is played just right and not too overwhelming. Prepare to wait during the weekends as this place gets filled up pretty fast. Wait time ranges from 30-45 minutes for a table of 4, faster if you do not mind sharing tables. Menus are simple and quality of food served during dim sum and dinner is always exceptional.

For dinner, order the filet mignon with assorted vegetables, the popular lobster with ginger and scallions and the salt, snow pea shoots sautéed with garlic and the whole crispy garlic chicken. These are my personal favorites. They also offer private rooms for larger parties but there is a minimum that one has to spend. I had many parties in these well appointed private rooms. Parking is easy and if you spend more than $100 parking get validated in their designated parking garage.“

“The experience at this place was wonderful this is because my sister and I had ordered 2 wonton noodle soups. The soups taste wonderful and the service is fast. The atmosphere can be noisy during meal times.

Wheelchair accessibility: This store is wheelchair accessible because it is located on street level.“

“LOVE LOVE LOVE OLLIE’s !! The food is always consistently great!! #LoveChineseFood Super friendly staff!!!“

“Food and service is amazing!“

“Definitely one of the best roasted meat in I ate. Their beef with noodles are amazing. A must try if your in Chinatown NY.“

“You cannot come here and expect Michelin style service. This is a old school local restaurant in Chinatown and is a good spot for a quick lunch or affordable dinner. I am a millennial but I frequent this restaurant because it is important to me to keep these local restaurants open for the benefit of the community. Their lunch specials are $8.50 everyday and there is a huge selection of dishes you can choose from. You can get walnut shrimp for dinner for around $20 whereas every other restaurant in the neighborhood charges $30 now.“

“Authentic Cantonese BBQ with rich, traditional flavors. The roast duck is my favorite—perfectly roasted to achieve crispy skin while keeping the meat tender and juicy. The seasoning is just right, balancing savory and slightly sweet notes, just like the best roast duck you’d find in Hong Kong.“

“Great food great service. Nice price“

“Considering all the Chinese restaurant restaurants in Manhattan's Chinatown, Yin Ji Chang Fen certainly must rank among the best.“

“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.“

“Good authentic Cantonese food. It's really nice to have a place like this in Chinatown. Need to clean up their bathroom a little more, not having paper towels is NOT okay.“

“We got the dumplings, spring rolls, edamame, general tsos, & Liu Zhou Luosi Rice Noodle. Best general tsos I’ve ever had in my life and you could tell everything was made fresh. Great quality and atmosphere. You can bring in your own beverages as well :)“

“I don't live near a good Chinese restaurant anymore (in my area the Chinese is all low-end take-out places with barely any vegan options) and the vast menu at Ginger Root was a delight. We loved everything we tried, including mushroom dumplings, fried king oyster mushrooms, cold green tea noodles, beef chow fun, sauteed baby bok choi, and the chocolate peanut butter bundt cake. Wish we lived nearby so we could try everything!!!“

“Oh man this steamed rice rolls where somebody and chewy and just flavor a bunch of flavor.“

“Best First Date Place in NYC 🩷“

“We entered this small place, and the waitresses were very efficient, in contrast to the typical Italian calm. The wait was short and the food was very good, I personally took the noodles with chicken and I highly recommend them. The price is not high, even though we are in Times Square (€15-20), the portions are generous and a €15 dish filled me up. I would stay here again“

“All day dim sum & Cantonese cuisine. 🥡🥢“

“Went there with a group of 6 that included 2 toddlers and newborn. Table was more than spacious enough for us.
Food was fantastic. Duck bao was flavorful. Mushroom yee mein was also flavorful and a fantastic chewy bounce. The Walnut shrimp was seasoned differently than I’ve had at other locations, making it unique. Shrimp were massive. Beers were refreshing. Will be returning soon!

Kid-friendliness: Table was big enough to fit our children, stroller and 3 adults. More than enough space. It was also during the week. The restaurant was not overwhelmingly busy.“

“First of all, Jesse deserves a raise. She’s incredible and has served me, my partner, my mother, father, and friend. This is to Jing Lee management - give her that promotion!!!

Secondly, the food is DELICIOUS. It’s rare that multiple people in my life agree on how tasty the food is. The cumin lamb is spicy and covered in distinct, flavorful spices. The crunch of the seasons green beans and the spicy aftertaste is ?.“

“Awesome food, and staff was great“
