7 Best Chinese Restaurants near Lambertville

“If you're looking for a very lovely hole-in-the-wall Chinese restaurant, Panda Bistro is a very nice secluded lunch destination. There is in-door seating with about 5 seats. The food is a pretty solid B+ which is pretty good for what the restaurant is. Plenty of parking and it's generally pretty quiet in the restaurant.

Parking: They share a parking lot with a CVS, plenty of free parking.“

“Delicious Mother's Day meal of special vermicelli . Summer rolls are so fresh and tasty.“

“They have the best fried rice ,l bought fried rice from a nj last week, and so nasty even scent of the place. YEUNG YOU ARE THE BEST. The food taste so good.“

“You can order online from a website that kindly reminds you what it was like on the internet in the 00's, before every millimeter of your screen was optimized and monetized. Things are misspelled (Chicken w/ borcolli; Singapore Rice Noodel) in a way that doesn't interfere with intelligibility, and provides yet another reminder of charm from a past you might not have experienced but can still, if only faintly, remember. Similarly, the interior harkens to a China that likely doesn't exist and never existed, but is convenient for the American perception. A large palm stands tall yet sheds two or three yellow leaves, suggesting that most attention is paid by staff behind the counter, not in front of it. A calendar shows an impossibly skinny Chinese woman looking at you genially. The wallpaper combines shades of jade and a muted yellow which, alongside the mahogany-colored chairs and tables, creates an inviting environment to wait for your food, seemingly on accident (though one can never be too sure).
It's a casual experience from start to finish. It weighs only very lightly on you, and the action causing the most resistance is when you try make a final decision on what you'll be ordering. The prices are cheap--one order of food, for just one person, could feed you for three whole meals. Therefore, this decision has a three day consequence--and don't be fooled by the casual nature of everything, there are definitely wrong choices. Any non-breaded chicken you order will be soggy and formless, and most beef will be similar. However, the spare rib and the breaded chicken (specifically General Tso's) are full of flavor and savory texture, as is the pork-fried rice, as are the eggrolls. The canned sodas from the fridge even taste better than store bought.
The family who owns the place are incredibly kind, even in the face of hardship. I ordered on Christmas Eve when they were absolutely swamped, since no other restaurants in the area were open. In total I waited 2 hours for my food, as did other patrons whom I waited with. We were all given an entire bag of Chinese tea candies as a token of the staff's appreciation, as were handed the bag with a disproportionate amount of glee and genuine cheer. I also live near some of the people who own/work the place, and they are some of the only people in the neighborhood willing to be vulnerable enough to smile and wave as neighbors cross their path. They are caring and patient towards their young children as well, and they work their tails off.
American-Chinese takeout, like most things for sale in today's markets, is both great and terrible for you. The levels of sodium, if consumed everyday, would cause severe inflammation in your body. However, your pockets will be happy that you chose to settle down with a 9 dollar 3000 calorie deal instead of doordashing Popeyes and paying $30 for it. And, most importantly, something in your soul will feel called to, catered to, held, and loved. Food is love, and that is one of the few human universals. New China JAMISON is a method for tapping into this love on an as-needed basis, and offers even more in terms of nostalgia and warmth for those with the minds open to perceive it. I give them 4/5 stars.“

“I have dined in various Indian Restaurants in NJ over the years. Unfortunately, most of the dishes I tried were very ordinary and limited (mostly vegetarian), until a few weeks ago! I was totally surprised to find this new restaurant (only a couple of miles from my home) in Flemington! This is definitely a hidden gem. They serve authentic Indian dishes (especially non-vegetarian dishes) and the prices are very reasonable. I have already visited the place several times and ordered their Carryout and was never disappointed. I would urge anyone who has not visited this place to try it -- you will not be disappointed! We need good ethnic restraints in Flemington -- unfortunately, we do not have many choices. I hope Cilantro Garden is here to stay.“

“Always great here. Friendly staff and consistently wonderful food!“

“I haven’t had Dragon of Newtown in years since they moved locations and now it makes me think it’s worth the drive from Morrisville. Everything we ordered for a family birthday dinner was delicious. The steamed dumplings were great and General tso chicken in particular was tender and had great taste (definitely has a kick). A great way to feed a larger family gathering even when dining at home!“
