50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Jamesburg

“Lovely restaurant. My wife was working in the area and decided to pick up some take out for dinner; 2nd best decision she made in her life, next to marrying me ?. Everything tasted so fresh!!! They did not half a** anything. Their eggrolls are a must try, extremely fresh!We are originally from Brooklyn, NY, so we had our share of Chinese takeout… so if we are traveling 30 mins both ways for Chinese takeout, that should say a lot. This place does not miss ?? Hits the spot every time.“

“Good location to enjoy dinner with family and friends. Service was good but orders came in little slower despite not many occupied tables. Everything we ordered was good but orange chicken surprisingly came without any sauce on chicken. It seemed more like chicken nuggets or popcorn chicken with slices of Orange. Overall was a good experience though.

Dietary restrictions: They do have vegetarian and gluten free options

Parking: This location is close to the mall and there are plenty of parking spots but may not always find something close to the restaurant.“

“First time here and will not be the last. Accommodating staff. Wheelchair accessible entrance. Delicious snow crab and pork soup dumplings. Refreshing and perfectly sweet, handmade Mango Pomelo Coconut Panna Cotta Tea (no soft drinks here). Took a chance on the Shanghai Pan-fried Pork Buns, because it looked yummy at another table. So glad we did!“

“Love their Bento boxes!!!“

“I haven't ordered from here in years but since I'm sick at home decided to get something delivered. I ordered online so it was easy. I am so pleased! The food arrived within 30 minites and was piping hot! The hot & sour soup is full of flavor and veggies and mushrooms. It is exceptionally tasty. I ordered steamed wontons in garlic sauce and love these! I think these are amazing! I might be addicted to them. The egg roll is crispy and perfectly done. I haven't tried my chicken lo mein yet because I am saving it for dinner. But I had to review this before I have a food coma lol ? Thank you. Sultan Wok. You made me happy ?“

“This is the only place I feel safe ordering in from as someone with food allergies. I have a dairy and gluten allergy and they are so accommodating with the dishes. You get big portions for a good price and the food is always so fresh. I also have a super stomach with some problems so I always feel icky eating out and since the food is cooked in high quality oil I never feel icky after eating here which is SO rare for me. The owner is incredibly kind and told me how she also has food allergies and is happy to make modifications and help. It’s so rare that restaurants welcome modifications and she always does so for me. I’ve never gotten sick here and it’s the one restaurant I feel comfortable ordering in from and look forward to doing so every week. The entire staff is helpful and are always kind and respectful even when the phone is ringing like crazy and there’s a line for pick up. They never rush you and always make you feel welcome. A local gem- thank you to the incredibly owner for giving us allergy people a safe place with delicious food and for accommodating me with a smile. I appreciate you so much. Please support this local small business“

“Yue Wah Kitchen is hands down our go-to spot whenever we’re craving Chinese food! The food is consistently amazing—fresh, flavorful, and always cooked to perfection. Whether it's their delicious General Tso's chicken, fried rice, or dumplings, every dish hits the spot!

What really makes this place special are the owners. They are some of the nicest, friendliest people you’ll ever meet. They truly make you feel like family whenever you visit. The service is always top-notch, and they go out of their way to ensure you have a great experience.

We’ve been coming here for years and can’t imagine going anywhere else for Chinese food. If you haven’t tried Yue Wah Kitchen yet, you’re missing out!“

“Fantastic food and a great atmosphere!“

“Pretty good Chinese food. Tried this out for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. Authentic Chinese flavors with a latin twist. The fried rice was the star of the show and the general cho chicken was good as well. Lo mein was a bit too oily and garlic chicken had barely any chicken and a lot of vegetables. Overall, pretty decent spot and will definitely be back for the fried rice … probably the best fried rice I’ve had from a takeout Chinese spot“

“After a couple of friends recommended this restaurant, my husband and I decided to give it a try since we were in the mood for Chinese cuisine. Just so you know, this restaurant promotes itself as an Asian Fusion spot.

Upon entering, we were captivated by the beautiful mural and hanging lanterns that created an exotic ambiance. We were quickly seated and handed menus. Two ladies served us: one handed us the menu and later delivered our entrees, while the other took our orders. Since we came during lunchtime, we noticed there was a lunch menu. Here’s what we ordered:

I chose the Fermented Black Bean Fish dish, which was packed with flavor and aroma from the fermented black beans. It had a perfect balance of sweet and salty, with the onions and peppers helping to tone down the strong saltiness.

My husband ordered the Dry Pot with fish, which was cooked in a spicy sauce and included shiitake mushrooms, bamboo shoots, bell peppers, and a generous amount of dry chili peppers. The heat from the chilis nicely complemented the delicate fish. Both dishes featured fish that was lightly battered, quickly stir-fried, and remained tender without being overwhelmed by the other ingredients.

The waitress who handed us the menu and later delivered our dishes was incredibly pleasant, always smiling as she served us.“

“The food was so delicious. I had the beef noodles and the broth was mind blowing. I went with a friend and she loves their steamed pork soup dumplings. The guy taking our order so super kind and helpful. I liked the designs and drawings on the wall and the atmosphere in general. It felt mystical.

Kid-friendliness: The man taking our order was very welcoming especially since me and my friend were teens dining in for the first time. He made sure he had our orders correct and he answered very politely when being asked a question.“

“This place has been my go-to Chinese spot to get food from the foods pretty good the service there is great the ladies that take your order are very sweet very genuine and they always make you laugh. Me and my family have been ordering here for I don't know how long but it's our go-to spot, the food portions are good and the prices for most things are fair.“

“I ordered fried dumplings and Chicken Fried rice. The texture of the rice is good but the taste is a little blunt. But adding the hot sauce made it good to eat. I guess I forgot to say to make it spicy. But the taste is really good. With the fried dumpling it's still hot by the time we got home. That's good. But I recommend eating in the restaurant or as soon as possible. if you ordered pick-up, just remember that there is a chance that it gets soggy by the time you get home, but the taste was still good. Overall, I like it!“

“The food is good but when I walked in and saw those poor fish in a tank that is too small for them it really upset me. You need to get a bigger tank and a canister filter like the Fluval 407. It will keep the fish smell down and a bigger tank would be beneficial to the fish. It just broke my heart. If you can't take care of them find them a good home.“

“This is my favorite American-Chinese takeout spot in NJ! The owners are very nice, the food comes out quick, and the quality is good. I've tried other Chinese takeout places in the area, and China Wok is the only one that I've been satisfied with. I love their Crab Rangoon and like to get Beef Chow Fun. All their dishes taste good for the price. It's a nice local spot to order from when you're looking for American-Chinese takeout!“

“Always great food, super fast delivery & super fast when picking up orders too! Food taste & quality is excellent! Their prices are very good and you get a lot of food for the cost. We've been customers for about 7 years, love this place!“

“I really can't believe that there is that good Chinese food place that exists...definitely ? I never ever eat good Chinese food in my life better than China wok deserve to be #1 in USA THANKS GUYS FOR BEING SO GOOD AND MAKE THE BEST FOOD EVER..YOU GUYS R THE BEST OF THE BEST....THE BEST CHICKEN WITH GARLIC SAUCE IS HERE..ALSO THANKS SO SO MUCH FOR BEING SO PROFESSIONAL AND FOLLOW EXACTLY WHAT THE CUSTOMER ASK FOR ..CANT STOP SAYING THANKS FOR GIVING THAT GOOD FOOD..KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK GUYS...“

“This is my all time favorite Chinese Restaurant! The food is delicious, generous portions and friendly service! We missed them during their brief closure for the beginning of the pandemic. Thank you!!“

“Great food and a pleasant staff. Best in the area.“

“A small takeout Chinese eatery with a fairly standard menu selection bearing high average prices. Hong Kong Express serves americanized Chinese fare. Set in a small strip mall, there seems to be adequate parking. Upon entering, the first impression is clean. Featuring newer furnishings, decor and construction. As a child took my order and payment, this is clearly a family business.
So I've only had one dish at this place. I can say for freshness of ingredients, it's excellent. For amount of meat added, average. Unfortunately my dish was extremely bland. I had to add 7 packets of various sauce and that was still not enough. As I make this dish at home, the main sauce is soy. I wish I had grabbed more.
Speaking of sauce, no sauce, forks, chopsticks or napkins were added or offered. I'm glad I checked and added on my own.
This business succeeds in 2 major ways most other Chinese places don't (freshness and cleanliness). I hope I just caught an off dish. I'd return, but until I had a better dish, I wouldn't recommend.“

“Favorite takeout in the area!! We’ve probably ordered close to 15 times by now and every single time the food is HOT, tastes fresh and EVERYTHING arrives! The staff is friendly and the driver as well!!! They sound BUSY on the weekends and we still get fresh food in 30-40 mins! Also I appreciate that they don’t rush while taking the orders!“

“Food is consistent and has lots of flavor. Always fresh and made efficiently. It’s a standard Chinese spot with limited seating and decorations but the food is delicious.

I have taken the food to multiple events and people unfamiliar with it love it. I hope they continue to have good quality and home style cooking.“

“The food is really great. Big portions and better than other Chinese restaurants in the area as well as surrounding counties. We have gone there many times. Suki is nice, hospitable and makes the dinner enjoyable.“

“We were planning a big party at our HOA and after trying almost a dozen Chinese Restaurants, that did catering, we tried Cheng Garden.
We knew we'd found gold when every dish we tested tasted like what we ordered, instead of all having one flavor. The chicken, beef & pork were tender and not fatty, the vegetables were fresh and crispy and the flavors were delightful.
They couldn't have been more helpful or pleasant to deal with and their prices were right in line.
On the day of the party, all the trays were ready for pick up at the specified time, packed in boxes and piping hot. One box was accidentally left behind and Cheng Garden immediately ran it over.
But the best part of all was that everyone loved the food. The party was in June and we're still getting great reviews and members requesting Cheng's address.
We're so glad we found Cheng Garden!“

“Online ordering was easy and simple.
But online receipt and actual receipt have $1 difference. Be Aware.
Delivery took about 50 mins but food were still good.
So far, best Chinese delivery food around this neighborhood.“

“I have been eating here for a while now, as I have eaten at other places for asian food, I find this place to be the best in the area. Boneless ribs, Lomein, sweet n sour chk all good.“

“The food was delicious and the prices are reasonable! I wanted to try another spot on a Monday because my regular spot was closed. They were very nice and the restaurant was very clean. Everything was made fresh to order. I would recommend this place.“

“Amazing food and exceptional service. I love the crab rangoon, sweet& sour soup, and general tso chicken. Everything was so fresh. The lunch special was quick and simple- I love how reliable it is to order from Golden East Garden. Would recommend“

“fresh great food light flavorful“

“I get it 3-4 times a week. The staff is incredibly helpful and friendly. The dishes are delicious and wide range of variety to choose from and very inexpensive and high value food.

They always make me feel at home and prepare food the way you like it.

Very highly recommended.“

“General Tso’s chicken was crispy and perfectly done, right amount of spice level for me, few freshly steamed broccoli and white rice cooked to deliciousness! With one spring roll (we split the order, there were two) all and all, great lunch.“

“Absolutely amazing Indo-Chinese food! The Drums of Heaven were perfectly crispy and packed with flavor, while the Devil of Heaven had the perfect spicy kick. The Manchow Soup was rich, comforting, and full of delicious textures. This restaurant is hands down the best place for authentic Indo-Chinese cuisine. Great ambiance, friendly staff, and top-notch food—highly recommend!“

“Best orange chicken from Panda in Central NJ. Crispy, fresh, not as sweet and more chicken than breading. Also best Kung Pao chicken: spicy and more chicken chunks

Atmosphere is also nice: modern, clean and plenty of seating.“

“The food was ok. Similar to other places. Had the steamed dumplings and general tso's lunch special. The special came with hot and sour soup and vegetable fried rice as I ordered. The fried rice was good. The soup v was tasty, but a little bit too sour compared to many others I have had. The general tso's chicken was very good and had a nice spice to it. A nice surprise was the chicken was white meat.“

“Just ran into them tonight on my way back from work. I love the type of sauce they do for their beef n broccoli. The rice is a little minced but I'm not tack any points just cause of thats.. it's still very fresh. I'm a chicken noodle soup guy. Start with the broth because you tell right away how it's gonna go. Broth very tasty. The chicken was fine and honestly the noodles were nice and al dente. I understand it's not an Italian place but that's how I like my noodles. Good stuff guys and I'll be back“

“This is only the third review I've ever written in my life. First time trying here and regret not doing it sooner. Fantastic tasting food at great price.Egg drop / wonton soup, fried wontons and chicken chop suey was amazing! Our new go to place. Very friendly counter service!“

“The BEST gluten-free chinese food you will find in NJ! It's worth driving to.

I've never had any issues eating here and I am very sensitive to gluten.

The food tastes great, the service is very good, and the prices are reasonable.“

“(Recommendations below) Their service is always speedy and orders always accurate. Food is always delicious. This is the go-to for everyone in the area whether it’s for a lunch break or dinner time take-out. They don’t offer delivery, but it’s in such a convenient location that it works out. Haven’t been to any other chinese restaurant as good as China Star 💗⭐️ they’re so consistent in every aspect. They also have a buffet, but I haven’t tried it yet. Give them a try!

•Wings + French fries are unmatched!!
•Peanut butter chicken
•Black pepper chicken
•Fried rice
•Singapore Mei Fun
•Scallion Pancakes“

“One of the best halal food restaurant in nyc and NJ area. We go there very often and they have not disappointed us even once. The food is delicious and appetizing. Great customer service, Food arrives on the table very quick. I would definitely recommend.“

“"我喜欢这个中国饭关""I love this Chinese restaurant" I said just that in Mandarin Chinese!(If I misspelled any character, feel free to correct me if you know Mandarin Chinese) The kind woman at the register lets me say phrases in Mandarin to her. Thanks!“

“This is our usual go-to. The sesame chicken is delicious, and so is the chicken&broccoli. The fried wontons are some of the best I've had. Sometimes you have to repeat parts of the order again, but the order always comes correct, hot, and delicious. The prices have DEFINITELY jumped, but honestly- What prices haven't?“

“Food was delicious..nice size lunch portion and very reasonable pricing.“

“I love this place. Everything here is good and fresh today. I went in there. Just got some soup broth because I’m fasting this time of year. Hot and delicious. I love it. They make great shrimp toast. Also, everything here is good. Fantastic Chinese food place. And the people are always friendly.“

“Just moved in the East Brunswick area about a year ago. I’ve tried a few Chinese restaurants and eventually tried this one. This has been the best Chinese food that I’ve tried. I’ve ordered 4 times since my first order and haven’t been disappointed. My Chinese food search has come to the end as this is my Go-To Chinese store! Food has always been hot and fresh! Service is fairly quick as well.“

“I Would Fight a Bear for This Chinese Food

Alright, folks, gather ‘round. I have a story to tell. I recently moved back to Jersey from Florida, and if you’ve ever lived in Florida, you know two things: 1) Alligators will steal your golf balls, and 2) They have no idea how to make good Chinese food. Seriously, I don’t know what’s going on down there, but I’ve had dumplings in Florida that tasted like they had an identity crisis halfway through cooking.

But then, this place happened.

I ordered (purely in the name of science, of course), and I swear on my fortune cookie—I have seen the light.

Let’s break it down:

Pork Fried Rice – Perfectly seasoned, fluffy, with that little hint of wok magic that tells me someone back there knows what they’re doing. This isn’t just rice; this is a lifestyle choice.

10-Piece Crabmeat Rangoons – I took a bite and immediately questioned every life decision that led me to eat subpar rangoons in the past. Crispy? Check. Creamy? Check. So addictive I’d trade my Netflix password for another order? Check.

Chicken and Broccoli – I think it hugged me from the inside. The chicken was tender, the sauce was divine, and the broccoli wasn’t that sad, overcooked mess some places give you. No, this was vibrant, fresh, and ready to be devoured.

Now, here’s the thing—I don’t just like this place. I am now in a full-blown, committed relationship with this restaurant. I will be talking about it at parties. I will be bringing out-of-town guests here like I personally own stock in it. And I will not rest until I have left a five-star review on every single platform known to mankind. Google? Done. Yelp? Already there. Carrier pigeon message straight to their kitchen? Give me time.

In fact, I’m already researching pigeon care because if that’s what it takes to support this mission, then so be it. I will foster a pigeon. I will name it Lo Mein and train it to deliver handwritten praise directly to the chefs.

And to anyone who dares say anything bad about this food—I’m convinced you have burned off all your taste buds. The only possible explanation is that you’ve been eating nothing but plain porridge your entire life and now mistake "flavor" for a personal attack. Seek help. Seek seasoning. Seek this restaurant.

Whoever is back there making this food, just know—I appreciate you. I see you. I love you. Expect me back. Probably too often. Possibly enough to be concerning.

10/10. No notes. Perfection achieved.“

“The best Chinese food in Monroe. And I'm from Brooklyn so I know good Chinese food.“

“I thought the food I got was really good. It was very greasy, but that's how I like my Singapore noodles. It was actually spicy when I ordered it spicy. There were a lot of vegetables in the noodles including bamboo shoot, cabbage, peppers, and the meat. I don't know if I actually got extra shrimp in it for the extra $2 because it seemed like a normal amount of shrimp. I guess that's just how restaurants are these days. They cooked it up super quickly. I ordered right when they opened. The people working there seem really nice.“

“My husband and I were craving Indian so we decided to try this place. Firstly, picking up it was the nicest customer service. The man was so personal and friendly, it was like walking into a family restaurant. He gave me a tea, some yummy dessert and he didn’t even want to accept money for it.

Secondly, we devoured everything. It was all so delicious and it filled us all up. We got three things but the chicken tikka was amazing.

Overall, I would highly recommend ordering from here. You won’t be disappointed.“

“I haven't actually been inside the restaurant but I have ordered takeout. The food always arrives quickly and the delivery persons are always friendly, courteous and polite. It's very rare that I've ordered anything that I don't have to add anything to salt or pepper soy sauce duck sauce that type of things, but I haven't had to add anything to enhance the flavor of their food everything I've ordered from there has been just perfectly delicious!!! The one dish that I've absolutely fell in love with is there shrimp noodle soup! It's packed with noodles and they're not stingy with the shrimp! And the gravy that comes with their Egg Foo Young is exquisite. I've decided that every time I order (and mind you I really don't like to experiment when it comes to food) but I'm going to try at least one thing that I have never tried before. So far I've had the house special fried rice, the house special lo mein, the house special egg foo young, the chicken noodle soup, the egg drop wonton mix soup and again I'm going to mention the shrimp noodle soup. The rice is perfectly done that comes with the egg foo young. Anyway I just want it to get my opinion on what I think is great takeout. One day soon I'm going to actually go and dine in. I'm quite sure it will be a pleasant experience.“
