“Best Chinese store in kenilworth“

“We have been going to the Magic Grill for over 30 years. It is quick - if you want but never rushed if you don't. We love that everyone gets to select their own ingredients from 3 meats- chicken, pork , beef- super thinly sliced-12 or so vegetarian choice- zucchini, bok choy, onions, carrots, pineapple, peppers, baby corns, chives and a variety of sauces to suite every taste.“

“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.“

“Lucky Foo in Kearny, NJ: The Real Deal Chinese Experience

If you're looking for that authentic, no-frills Chinese spot, Lucky Foo is for you.

If you're expecting some fancy American-style service, you might be in for a shock. But trust me, that's part of the charm. It's just one person cooking and one serving, and their mission? Get that homemade food to you, no matter how long it takes. Don't come here if you're in a rush - this is slow food at its finest. I learned about this style of service living in Hawaii, so it felt familiar to me.

Now, let's talk about the star of the show - the food. It's clean, packed with homestyle flavor, and will leave you feeling satisfied. That noodle soup? Pure magic. When I'm craving authentic, homemade noodle soup, this is the spot I head to. It's not an everyday thing, but when that specific craving hits, Lucky Foo delivers.

The vibe inside is something else. It's quiet - like, eerily quiet - and filled with what looked like college-age Asian students. No background music, no chitchat, just people focused on their bowls or phones. It's an experience, I'm telling you.

Don't expect any fancy menus - it's all up on the wall. And heads up, it's cash only. But honestly? The food is so good, you won't even care.

If you're after authentic Chinese cuisine without any of the fuss, Lucky Foo is your spot. It might not be for everyone, but for those who get it? It's a little slice of homestyle heaven right here in Kearny.“

“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.“

“Had a wonderful experience here! The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The staff were welcoming and attentive without being overbearing. The atmosphere was cozy and perfect for a relaxed meal. Everything from the appetizers to the dessert exceeded my expectations. Definitely a place I’ll be recommending to friends and returning to myself“

“My favorite place to get bbq chicken wings from & shrimp rolls. The food is amazing here.“

“I was at first excited when Dao Madison moved into town and even more excited when I was told they can accommodate gluten free as I have celiac. After several miss steps with mixed up orders, Dao is now cooking on all cylinders. We recently were there with friends and everyone loved it. Moreover, they have successfully accommodated my need to eat gluten free (I have celiac) several times, and have been pro active in suggesting what is easier and safer to make gluten free. This place is a gem.“

“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.“

“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“

“While it’s Americanized Chinese food, you can still taste the authentic flavors in dishes like the mapo tofu and chow fun. It’s a great spot when you’re craving comfort food with a Chinese twist. Clean dining area and fast service, too!“

“This is hands down the best restaurant in NJ right now. The 8 course tasting menu is phenomenal, each dish balanced with unique flavors and texture, and beautiful plated. Our server explained each dish in detail, was extremely knowledgeable of the ingredients and dishes, and very friendly. He consistently topped off our drinks as needed and meticulously provided a new place setting for each course. The ambiance was very relaxing as we sat on the 2nd floor, with beautiful hip, modern decor. I was particularly intrigued by the faucet in the bathroom which was very unique. The overall attention to detail from the concept and design to the food and service is what sets it apart. Fine dining at its best with a relaxed atmosphere that easily compares to a Michelin star restaurant.

Free on site parking is available and it is a BYOB. A liquor store is conveniently located next door in case you forget to bring your libations.“

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

“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.“

“First time going here and won't be my last ! This is now my new chinese dine in restaurant. The food is very fresh ..the dumplings are so good and fresh made we had to get another one! We ordered general Tao chicken and it was also very fresh made . The restaurant is cute also .“

“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.“

“I love this place!! Definitely recommend to everyone!!“

“This restaurant near the movie theater with kind of small and decent. I've been to a lot of Chinese restaurants in Staten Island, but this one is New to me. I stopped here to get lunch after I saw the movie Migration.?? ?? I liked the prices that they have on their menu and their appetizers. I asked for a chicken lo mein lunch combo with an eggroll. Came out to $12. A good price for lunch,but I should have asked for some more sauce packets. I would deliver here but they're so far away from my house ?. This spot is kind of fancy and if I were you, I'd rather try it out.?????“

“My husband and I recently moved to NJ and were looking for good Chinese food. You can't go wrong with Ms. Lin! Our food was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. Prices are very reasonable and we brought our own wine. We will definitely be back!“

“We have been eating at this amazing restaurant for a few years now! Food is excellent...Wonton soup is not salty like other restaurants..Food is always fresh and not greasy..They keep the restaurant very clean..The owners are very friendly.
Best kept secret on Staten Island.👍👍“

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

“Our waiter did an amazing job, props to them really. Best food experience I’ve had in quite a while. The food is amazing, especially the orange chicken. I had a group of 6-7 people and yet our waiter held down the fort. This place now holds a special place in my heart. Love new jade lake!❤️❤️❤️🥰“

“I love

Being in the freezer so long
But wow like fresh out the water
I honestly gotta say this place is the best I had in my life period
Thank you for the great food
God bless n hope your business stays the same forever 🙏“

“The service at this place is very, very bad. The young man who takes the orders is very rude when talking to customers. He should be replaced by a better person. In addition, you can only pay in CASH, and at the counter, they always charge you taxes. This is STEALING TO THE CUSTOMER AND TO EVADE TAXES AS WELL. I DO NOT RECOMMEND this place at all.“

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

“Just started to order from here cause it’s a little far from my house but they were happy to deliver with no problem the food comes hot and it actually has taste unlike a ton of the places I been ordering from in the past so far everything has been great definitely my new go to spot“

“My wife and I ride our scooters there faithfully to get our usual shrimp and broccoli fried rice teriyaki chicken on the stick fried bananas and a order of chicken wings ?.The presentation ALWAYS ?? GRADE A!!WE LOVE ALL THE UNIQUE FLAVOR PROFILES GREAT TASTY FOOD VERY FRESH..ALSO THE PLACE IS CLEAN WE LOVE TO STAY AND EAT THERE!HEY IM BOUT TO GOT GET ME SOME NOW BEFORE THEY CLOSE IM OUT!!!!?“

“The Butterfly shrimp is Amazing!“

“Excellent food, friendly and generous portions.“

“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.“

“Great family owned place for decades, when I go in they treat me like family because I’m kind and respectful. I’ve noticed a lot of people leaving reviews of one star only leave negative reviews and in my opinion often invalidates their opinions. Seems like most people want to have their butts kissed by their neighbors, but if you’re kind and respectful to staff they’ll return the favor. Food is delicious, prices are fair, and the kitchen is open and clean.

Dietary restrictions: They have vegetarian and gluten free options.

Parking: Parking on the street is available but there’s a Burger King next door that is often used to pick up orders.“

“This review is long overdue from me, as my family and I have been ordering from here for over 10 years. It is by far the best takeout Chinese food I’ve ever had, and undoubtedly the best in Union County. Also, can’t not mention that it comes at a great price too.“

“the service and the food was awsome loved it definitely coming back💖“

“Super delicious food recommended to me by a friend. The Fried Chicken Wings are the crispiest, tastiest and best I’ve ever tasted.
Great delivery service .
Most delicious quality food I have tried, fresh and wonderful!
Try it and enjoy!“

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

“This was my first time ordering from this restaurant because it's hard to find good Chinese food. I ordered an orange chicken combo very spicy. The flavor of the food is excellent, the pork fried rice was on point and freshly made, the orange chicken was a bit mushy more on the softer side. If they can fry the chicken a little bit crunchy it would be perfect. The eggroll I'm not a fan of but it was okay. I enjoyed the food, and that will be my new goto restaurant from now on.“

“The food here is great. Ordered a couple chicken burgers from here and I have to say, some of the best chicken I’ve had. I love the unique use of veg in the burger and even as leftovers it tasted great. I have to say, this is in my top eats from nyc. Phenomenal.“

“We ordered take-out, picked up and enjoyed our family Sunday dinner of two orders of steamed dumplings with their delicious sauce, shrimp egg foo-young with steam rice, house-special egg foo-young with steam rice, and a quart of their special young chow fried rice. We received 4 cans of complimentary sodas with extra hot sauce, soy sauce, and duck sauce.“

“A new owner has taken over but the food is still good. I wish the crab rangoon was still whole not shaped like dumplings but they're still good. Food is always on point. I gave 4 stars for service because for the life of me I never get utensils in my bag. There's never a fork in there. You shouldn't have to ask. Other than that I'm still a loyal customer.“

“I like Rice Bowl...decent Chinese/Thai food menu in Iselin, on Gill Lane. I enjoy their green and red curries, pineapple fried rice w/ chicken and their warm fried donuts. Good menu variety and service. Okay to eat there, but I usually pick-up.“

“Very surprisingly good experience.

Ordered delivery from here, wanted to try a bit of everything as I am new to the area and everyone needs a go-to Chinese food spot.

Some of the best fried chicken I've ever had, great portions on the combination platters. One of the very rare cheap Chinese food spots that actually puts real smoked pork in the pork fried rice.“

“This chinese food is the best ive had in a very long time!!! The boneless spare ribs are meaty!!! Not little tiny slivers of chipped meat. The rice was beautiful done, flavorful and it comes with egg! The general tsao chicken was beautifully crispy, not soggy even after taking it to go!! The wonton soup broth was flavorful unlike most places that taste like chicken water. The wontons themselves were also flavorful. I will be a new regular after avoiding Chinese food for years“

““Absolutely fantastic takeout! The food was fresh, flavorful, and arrived piping hot. The portions were generous, and every dish—from the crispy spring rolls to the perfectly seasoned fried rice—was spot on. Fast service and great attention to detail in packaging. Highly recommend!”“

“First it was a rainy day. They were busy. Young lady let's us know it was an 30 min wait. I was not rushed to order. She was very pleasant and patient. I ordered shrimp Egg Foo Young and beef Egg Foo young. The beef was so tender and the shrimp are nice big ones. And the brown gravy was delicious. If I could give 10 stats I would. Even with the wait time.“

“I’ve been coming here since I was a kid. And for over 15 years they have never done me dirty. Their wings are so good and such a good portion. Their vegetable low mein is so filling and their prices are so reasonable. They are always so kind too. I recommended this spot and everyone who tried it loves it“

“First off, your eggrolls are amazing! Something I was cravIng. It totally hit the spot. The owners are so nice, their daughter-their little munchkin delivered me my eggroll while I waited for the food to be ready. Pleasantly surprised that the food was delicious. We found our new go to Chinese since Mr. Chu’s closed.“

“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.“

“so impressed!! we ordered takeout for new years and delivery took just over 30 minutes (not bad at all for a holiday!) they gave us a pretty set of metal utensils for the holiday is well, which was a very nice touch. the lo mein and mini veggie spring rolls are delicious. excited to order from them again!“

“I was in the mood for Chinese food and the recent 5-star reviews made me want to give this place a try. Those reviews were not misleading.

After eating my pork-fried rice, I am glad that I chose to go there. I will probably make this place my preferred Chinese food restaurant.“
