“Way better than other places in Hillside. Great service never rude or nasty at all very pleasant!! Good service goes a long way!!“

“Love her she’s so friendly and we always chat about our kids and she always give me a lot of food, free soda or egg roll with my order, I only buy my Chinese food there 😊“

“This Chinese restaurant deserves five stars! The food is very delicious and reminds me of my childhood when my parents used to come here to buy Chinese food. The old place is not only remembered by people because of its time, but their taste makes me feel like I am still in the past. They have made some small upgrades in management, but the taste is still as delicious as ever!“

“Hands down one of the better Chinese food places I’ve every had, sesame seed chicken amazing boneless spare ribs amazing pork fried rice amazing eggrolls amazing i am honestly incredibly impressed i was so happy to enjoy something tasty and actually good a meal can certainly make your day :)“

“I highly recommend Ugly Dumpling because of the delicious and affordable food options they have. Excellent customer service received from Gregory D!! He is absolutely an amazing server!! We will be coming back for more!! Awesome ambiance, beautiful decors, hip music and amazing servers. I also would like to give extra thanks to Miller... Overall, we are so happy with the whole experience!! 5 stars out of 5!!“

“Went here for dinner tonight after work and have to say the food is tasty. Staff is friendly and the owner went around to all the tables checking in to see if there is anything he could do to make the experience better. I hear the servers answering questions from patrons about dishes. We especially loved the tofu with crab meat. So delicious 🤤. The chicken soup dumplings were yummy also. The other entrees were all good. I packed the left over vegetables to go. I didn't want to let it go. Lol Very Authentic from the region cuisine. Will be frequenting this business going forward. Thank you for the great experience.“

“We love this place. Its not pretty, but it is delicious and the rice dumplings are my favorite. Essentially it's a Customizable, never ending stir fry with noodles instead of rice. They cook it on a grill when you put everything together, so not ideal for vegetarians as the grill shares with meat.“

“Beef Noodle Soup (8.2/10): traditional, flavorful, noodles were the best part

Wontons in Chili Oil (7.5/10): sweet and savory. It's good but the sweetness surprised me.

Overall: good ingredients, traditional flavors and recipes, solid place would come back again. ALSO GOOD PRICES

Edit: so good I had to come back for more. Beef soup with pork ribs 8.7/10. The noodles are so firm and the broth is so hearty and warm. Got beef scallion pancakes and it had cucumbers and some beef in it wrapped in a flaky crust. 8.3/10. Amazing“

“Best dumplings and strawberry lemonade tea ever!!<3. I definitely recommend this place. 谢谢😌“

“Went today as I was driving around. And saw this unassuming place. Had the suchuan beef noodle soup. It blew my mind, taste was unbelievable. As an Asian American who lives in Edison. I know my food. And this dish was great. Will go back and try different food t“

“Food was very good and service excellent! I was slightly concerned about the grade pending sign in the window and the fact that gloves were not worn as the food was prepared and handled. The phone orders were numerous as I waited and several people ordered as I waited. This was a few days ago and my family did not have any negative reactions from consuming a large order of food. Overall a good experience.“

“My husband & I haven’t ordered Chinese food in a couple yrs bc it just kept getting worse, no matter how many places we were recommended. Even our OG tried & true (in our town) plummeted downhill, so we just gave up on it…. until tonight, when he said “I’m really craving Chinese!” I decided to google the best places in Union county & Trio came up first. After I peeped a ton of reviews, I IMMEDIATELY knew that’s what dinner was gonna be. Just picked it up maybe 45 mins ago & when I tell you, both my husband & I kept sayimg “this is amazing!”

Went with the black pepper chicken, bc how could I not! So many reviews mentioned it. The chicken is sweet, sticky, spicy in the best black pepper way, crispy yet lightly fried (almost like tempura) & that sauce mixed with the pork fried rice (with delicious chunks of fried onion & roast pork!)…. YUMMMMM!!!!! I’ve never had it before but it will be a staple going forward.

The pork fried dumplings were the best we’ve ever had. Filled with meat & fried to perfection. The shrimp rolls are packed with perfectly cooked veggies & beautiful, plump, pink chunks of shrimp. My husband said “that’s the best shrimp roll I’ve ever had. Usually they just taste like one note, everything in them blends together & it’s all just mush, but these are insane!” I got the large duck sauce bc no store bought ever comes close. The roast pork lomein hit HARD. The pork is succulent & moist, rather than dry as a bone and cut into teeny pieces like it is at every single Chinese restaurant we’ve ever ordered from. Absolutely delicious.

For my 83 yo FIL, we got his usual- a small order of bone in spareribs & I can hear him downstairs (as I type this review) telling his elderly dog “these are great, coco!” 😆

Last, but not least, I grabbed a homemade iced tea for my husband (thank you so much for throwin it “on the house”) & he sipped it down with a smile on his face.

I’m old school so I called our order in & she was the most kind, jovial, sweet as pie human. I’ve lived in NJ for 27 yrs now, and can truly say that this is, without a doubt, the best Chinese food we’ve ever had. Cannot wait to go back & try a bunch more dishes. But that black pepper chicken and these shrimp rolls will be a definite yes every single time.“

“New Dorp rejoice (and don’t be pushed away by reviews from before it was bought out by new management)!!! We finally have a legit Chinese food spot. And what’s better? It might be one of the best and cleanest on the whole island. I’ll admit, I can be a pain in the butt with my order (who else orders soup without chicken?) but China Wok delivers every time. Not only that, but they remember me. My son and I are greeted with happy faces, people I’m proud to say are my neighbors. Prices are more than reasonable in a time where everything seems to be so expensive now, and the food is fresh and delicious. Im embarrassed by how well we’ll get to know each other, but they have me locked in!“

“Delicious menu, centrally located with friendly staff.“

“This is a great restaurant find. The food is absolutely delicious, like home cooking and the portions are large. The staff and service are friendly and attentive. It’s a nice friendly atmosphere to dine and enjoy a meal with family and friends. My wife and I make a point of eating here once a week. The prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend Dragoon Palace It’s a rare jem.“

“I can honestly say this restaurant deserves every positive review it receives. The quality of the ingredients was obvious from the very first bite, and every dish was full of rich, balanced flavors. The service was friendly and efficient, and the staff paid attention to every detail. The comfortable atmosphere made the entire experience even more enjoyable. I will definitely be returning soon.“

“Had an excellent dinner at Paper Lantern of Montclair. The short ribs were excellent for an appetizer, delicious sauce. Wonton soup and dumplings were perfect and the sesame chicken and spicy Szechuan chicken were also wonderful. All of the staff were nice and the restaurant is cute inside.“

“Had only gotten take out from here, rice rolls and fruit teas before coming tonight. I'm so glad we decided to eat in. The portions were big enough to share, great value for the money. The service was friendly and professional, our server was such a nice guy.

Food was hot and fresh, we got more traditional dishes but there are things like sweet &sour and Kung pao chicken and soups you'd recognize from any Chinese-American spot.

Looks like most of their business is take or or on-line orders but they have a clean, spacious dining room. Worth it to sit in and enjoy but remember good food takes time :^)“

“Please note that the stupid AI review summary is no longer accurate; Sunny Kitchen stopped serving sushi a while back. I repeat, they no longer serve sushi! But I always enjoy the food I get here (my go-to's being the general Tso's and the pad Thai, occasionally Buddha's delight), and pricing is fair for portion size in my experience.“

“Best dumplings and strawberry lemonade tea ever!!<3. I definitely recommend this place. 谢谢😌“

“I absolutely love the food here. I get it every now and then and the food is always hot, delicious, and cooked perfectly! They’re always on top of the orders and will always let you know in case there’s a minimal wait. I’ve tried multiple dishes and they all taste absolutely amazing. You can order online or in store (cash only in store but there’s an ATM). The owner is very sweet and friendly as well! She always knows what I order immediately. I would highly recommend this spot if you’re ever looking to grab a bite.“

“If you’re looking for delicious authentic Sichaun dishes, recommend getting the Soup dumplings, Mongolian Beef, Dandan Noodles, Scallion Pankcakes, Chef Tan Style Fried Rice, Shrimp fried rice, Sichuan Style Hot & Sour Glass Noodles and Vegetarian String Beans. Heat levels can be adjusted to your liking.“

“I live in Roselle Park. first time ordering from Lin's garden I had fried dumplings and a combination of beef and broccoli something simple but yeah very good I have to say I would definitely recommend this place nice flavoring and decent pricing.“

“Best Chinese take out on Staten Island. Always FRESH & delicious. My favorite is the Beef Lo Mien. It always has that amazing firey taste. I love the chicken wings also. I always get them extra crispy (fried hard lol) iykyk. I live in Queens & I come to Staten Island for this food haha. My grandmother lives in Staten Island also, so when I visit her I def grab some food from here. 10/10“

“First time here at the good “Panda China” restaurant. First impression? Fine addition to the community. The young lady that took my order was very pleasant. The chef seemed skilled and I must say the vegetables in both dishes (vegetable fried rice and lo mein) were fresh and full is flavor. The chicken wings were fried nicely and hard as we requested. This was overall a very good experience. We will be returning customer.“

“Honestly, this place ruined Chinese food for me anywhere else. The food is consistently insane. The boneless spare rib tips are hands down the best I’ve ever. The dumplings are incredible, and their Hot & Sour soup is on another level. I’ve tried countless Chinese spots over the years and nothing comes close to this place.

What really separates them is they don’t cheap out. They’re generous with the sauces, portions, and noodles — which is rare now. You can tell they actually care about the food and the customer experience instead of cutting corners like most places do. If you know good Chinese food, this spot is elite.“

“Best Chinese store in kenilworth“

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

“港餐。飽！😋真心。誠意。唔係扮㗎👍🏼truly tasty“

“This place is always good. Sometimes there are small issues just like anywhere else but in general this is the best Chinese food in the area. I saw a false 1 star review from a few years ago, I know it's false because they stole a picture from a different (5 star) review. So I am leaving a good review to balance it out.“

“Authentic, tasty, and great prices for the amount you get! They had a mix of dim sum and buns as well as traditional noodle, meat, and veggie dishes that are all cooked simply but perfectly. I'm from Northeastern China and rarely see some of these offerings in American restaurants. Such a pleasant meal with the sweetest waitress, we'll definitely be back!“

“Here's a great review for you guys. I'm not one to EVER reheat Chinese food the next day...or ever. My husband ordered from here for him and the kids while I was at work this past weekend. Not only did I reheat it after work and it was delicious, but I ate it for lunch the next day, too, and still really good. I think this was the first time I reheated Chinese food in about twenty yrs lol. Will order again,thanks.“

“Love this place, been there 3 times. The lady server is always very accommodating and sweet to my son and us. Food is always tasty and fresh. My son loves the food here. Is a small place but thats the charm.

Parking: There plenty of parking around“

“I’ve been eating at A&J Bistro for years. The food is excellent! They make the best Fried Rice around! The Spicy Beef Noodle Soup is also incredible! The staff are friendly and Josephine the owner is such an amazing person! She does everything to make your experience great. Also, the new Refresher drinks are delicious!“

“This restaurant is very clean and tidy, and the service is very thoughtful. Everyone looks nice ,feel very comfortable, and the food is also delicious, especially these two rolls are specially custom-made by the chef. I kind of forgot their names, but it doesn't prevent me from remembering their deliciousness.“

“Best food Chinese food I’ve ever tasted❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“The Butterfly shrimp is Amazing!“

“It's great-tasting, well-made Chinese food. By well-made I mean you're NOT going to receive food that's drowned in grease, or all mushy like it's been sitting in a steam table for hours.They have a great selection of different styles. All the standard stuff, plus Szechuan and Cantonese specialties. The prices are reasonable. Staff is very nice. I love that when I order delivery, the driver is from the restaurant, not some internet service.I used to think I'd never find good Chinese food in this area, until I tried Hop Hing. Now I wouldn't go anywhere else.“

“The staff is nice and how can you not like a 91 year old man? The Mai Thai and zombie paired well with the food and the decor of the restaurant. The pu pu platter was delicious, my favorite was either the shrimp toast or Hawaii beef. For the main course we got the lobster soma and lychee pineapple duck, the lobster comes in this tasty slightly spicy brown sauce and the duck was sweet but not overwhelming, the meat was tender and plentiful. My mother had come here as child around when they first opened, since I just moved up here within the year my mother came to and said we had to come here, I’m glad we did. I’d definitely come back!“

“Awesome experience every time 👍🏻 Have been visiting this place again and again and never feel disappointed.“

“food was Absolutely delicious and everyone was very friendly! looking forward to going back soon!“

“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.“

“EVERYTHING I GET FROM WOK N ROLL IS EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“If you’re looking for clean, fresh food that won’t drain your wallet, this spot is a great choice. The portions are generous, the prices are reasonable, and the staff are always welcoming. It can get pretty busy since it’s popular, but the wait is definitely worth it. Only thing missing would be fresh juices, adding those would take it to the next level.“

“If you are looking for delicious Chinese food, I recommend you try Wok & Roll.

The food is delicious, a wide variety of options and a very clean place.

Definitely give this place a try it might just be your new go-to place for Chinese food.“

“I rarely eat Chinese food and I choose this restaurant when I have to eat. When I tasted the food, I was surprised by the taste, which gave me a new understanding of this cuisine. Quick pick up and very kind service. Pricing is very reasonable for the amount of food that you get.“

“You can set your watch to this place making great Chinese food. Always hits at lunch time and the people that work there couldn’t be more friendly. My go to is chicken and broccoli. Highly recommend if you want a solid, no frills meal for a reasonable price.“

“Come for the food, you won’t regret it. Sichuan food at its finest, this is not your typical American style Chinese food. Parking is difficult but there’s street parking nearby. Haven’t had Sichuan food this good outside of Flushing, Queens. Mapo Tofu, lamb cumin, and cold tripe/meat appetizer are 🔝⭐️“

“I’ve been ordering here for years and recommend to everyone in area. I’ve ordered multiple things off menu and they have all been delicious, Food is always good and consistent. Staff is friendly and appreciative of tip. Chicken wings, fried rice , boneless spare ribs are top notch! Highly recommend!“

“Very good food“
