50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Madison

“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.“

“I’ve been ordering Chinese takeout back to living in Brooklyn for 20+ years. In almost all Chinese restaurant reviews, people always complain about delivery and how many shrimp they got. Just order pick up and don’t go to pricy places if u want to avoid being disappointed. I’ve bought from Madison Wok for 15 years now and never had a late order when ordering pick up here (usually 15 mins). The food tastes exactly as my local restaurant when I was a kid, so I can’t complain. For the price, consider how little you are paying for the amount of work and manpower going into it •• esp since it’s done so fast. Dao nearby has slightly less oil and flavor for a lot more money. I wanted to like it but just poor value since your deliver or pick up order price needs to support the wait staff. No American style Chinese food is healthy for you so stop thinking you’re doing something good by paying someone extra to do less oil, msg, etc. in summary, this is an old school place that gives you the standards for the least amount of money you’ll pay in this zip code. Not something to eat everyday, but when you need your fix for this kind of stuff. I recommend the pork dumplings, fried wings, curry chicken, wonton soup and any fried rice, plus the chow fun and generals chicken. My 3 kids never complain and no one has ever been sick. Sometimes I’m not crazy about the amount of meat but remember that I’m not paying $15 or $20 for a pint here, and the low prices are supporting a skeleton crew.“

“Stopped in while my son was at soccer practice on a whim last night and was blown away by the food and the amazingly friendly staff. The noodles were out of this world!! Prices were very reasonable esp in this economy. Will definitely be returning.“

“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 highly recommend giving trying this place out. I either get shrimp w/broccoli with white rice, chicken w/broccoli in garlic sauce extra garlic sauce with white rice, 2 spicy salmon rolls and 2 spicy tuna rolls w/spicy mayo and eel sauce on the side oh yeah they have sushi too..😌, or chicken wings with shrimp fried rice I enjoy changing it up because everything is really that good.“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“Top China has been the family favorite since we moved into the area (we sampled every local place). The prices are great and the quality is consistently very good. We also used them for a catering event this past Sunday and it was excellent. Delivered on time and no dimiahed quality due to the high volume of food. We highly recommend Top China!“

“I have lived in town for about 6 years. We found this restaurant online and gave it a try. We ordered the pineapple and chicken fried rice, a dish called Phoenix, and the General Tso's Shrimp. Each dish was excellent and the staff was warm and friendly. Will continue to buy food from here!!!!HOT AND SOUR SOUP WONDERFUL!!! GOOD FOR COLDS!!!!“

“Love this place, my go to Chinese takeout. I have been ordering from here for years now. Food and orders are consistent and there are never any issues. Food is great and what you would expect from Chinese takeout. We go here so much, they know us. Special shout out to one of the guys that takes phone orders. He’s funny.“

“Great food, friendly generous owner operators, generous portions“

“Dim sum are bigger size than normal. Like the shrimp dumplings, it's filled with shrimps and plump. Compared to Qin Dynasty across the street, they're bigger. The beef cherng fun are good too.

However, I guess these days all the dim sum are getting quite expensive.“

“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!“

“Best Chinese store in kenilworth“

“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!“

“Excellent spot for multiple different cuisines around Asia. I can't believe it took me so long to try this place, it is excellent! The sushi was super fresh and they had lots of menu items that were very unique like the dinosaur egg(fried lobster with layers of avocado on top). The dumplings were outstanding. Probably the best dumplings I've ever had! And the prices are extremely fair, we had so much food we barely finished. Will definitely be a spot I frequent.“

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

“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.“

“Ordered for the first time since learning they moved & opened their doors in Morris Plains! They were our FAVORITE restaurant in Cedar Knolls! I’m SO happy to have them ‘back’ (a bit further of a drive, but so worth it!!) Everything was just as delicious as I remembered it being! We’ll be back SOON!!“

“My friend and I had a delicious lunch at Hui Tou Xiang! The leek pancakes and dumplings are all handmade in-house as well as the noodles. We’ll be going back.“

“Let me share my experience with this restaurant being it’s my first time eating here. To start off the people are very pleasant and greeted me with a smile and a warm welcome. So there is no issue there ! The food was also decent , very tasty and everything was fresh. Some things that they can improve on is a little less salt ( msg) and they also had cinnamon in the egg roll which was sort of odd. But overall it was a good place to eat.“

“New Horizon is always excellent. Food tastes great, portions are generous, and it's ready a little bit faster than you'd guess.

Vegetarian options: There are lots of vegetarian and pescaterian choices for appetizers and entrees.

Parking: There are lots of parking spots.“

“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.“

“Favorite place in town for American Chinese cuisine. Best fried rice and wonton soup and wings. Great deals for lunch and lots of beverage choices. Good amount of private parking right on the side of the restaurant for easy pick up or dine in.“

“Very grateful for this place. So glad I spent the extra couple minutes to compare menus/reviews and landed here rather than the other closer options. The food was fresh, hot, tasty and it was prepared quickly. Friendly service but have some patience and grace as English is not their first language.

My boyfriend and I were exhausted, stressed, and hungry (I.e. desperate) during the tail end of a 5hr drive at Sunday night in the middle of rain/flooding and this place single handedly turned our miserable night around. Will definitely be back whenever we’re in the area again!“

“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!“

“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 was there earlier today with a group of friends for the Christmas special Bengali Food Festival. We were quite impressed by the menu selection. The food was not oily& spicy at all,hence even the kids enjoyed the food. The service was good. I wish the restaurant would be more spacious. Other than that I would highly recommend this place.“

“Nice spot for a Chinese food or sushi. Convenient to the local hotel and all the shops. Nice cozy indoor seating and good service. Food was flavorful. The fried dumplings and beef on a stick were great appetizers. The tangerine beef was sweet and spicy delicious.“

“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.“

“We value every customer’s feedback. At the same time, we notice this reviewer (Vincenza )consistently posts negative and damaging comments about many restaurants. Our restaurant has proudly served this community for 15 years, and we remain committed to providing quality food and service. As for the accusation about stealing credit card information, this is completely false — we take security very seriously and have never engaged in such behavior — in fact, we’ve been victims of fraudulent cards used by customers before. We encourage future guests to experience us firsthand before drawing conclusions.“

“Low cost Chinese restaurant set up primarily for take out but there are a few tables for those who wish to dine on-site. It has good food, prompt and pleasant service, and easy parking.

Parking: Free street parking in Front and on side streets. Free Municipal parking lots behind and across the street.“

“I really cannot leave a rating on the food since I have yet to eat here. I love this place and must get here. if the food is anything like the decor, it has to be 5 stars 🌟 or a 1000 🌟. pray to eat here soon 🙏. blessings to all 🙏 🙏 🤲 🤲.“

“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.“

“Best Chinese out there. We have been going there for years and they never disappoint!!! A must try.“

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

“Ordered from Mei Mei Wok for the first time tonight. Was looking for a new place to order Chinese food from and found them through a Google search.They have a convenient and easy to use ordering app. Placed my order through the app before I left work and it was ready when I arrived on my way home. Kept it simple and stuck to my normal choices of an egg roll, pork lo mein and General Tso chicken. Totally impressed! The egg roll was crispy and tasty, the pork lo mein was very good and the General Tso probably the best I have ever had. Will definitely be ordering from them in the future!“

“The best Chinese restaurant this side of the Mississippi. Been eating here since I was a kid, but I have since left the area. When I visit my family, we get China Garden because they know how I miss this food. It has only gotten better and better over the years. I never leave reviews, but wanted to share my love for this place. ❤️“

“This place is really convenient in the middle of town between Summit and Chatham. They speak very good English and they’re not cheap with the meat that they put in the food. The food taste very delicious and the broccoli was really fresh and when you get beef and broccoli the beef is not chewy it is soft and has good flavor. Their egg drop soup is also very good. I was really disappointed by the other more expensive Chinese food places and the end of this place being the diamond of the town.“

“Mr. Chu has been my family's go to for Chinese food for years. When they had the kitchen fire and the building was shut down, we thought that would be the end of Mr. Chu. We are so happy they have come back, and we have been there since their opening a couple of times already. The food was always outstanding and still is. The atmosphere is your typical Chinese restaurant attire. With the new paint and fixtures, it makes it appealing. I had the Shimp in Lobster sauce which did not disappoint. It was by far the best I have had in years. Even at some of the top-notch Chinese restaurants, the sauce is usually watery. Mr. Chu's had that perfect consistency you expect in lobster sauce. I thoroughly enjoyed my leftovers the next day. While my family and I do miss their homemade table noodles. When asked, we were told how time consuming they are to make. Once the staff gets to know you, you feel very welcomed. They are very attentive even while the restaurant is packed with patrons. If you want exceptional Chinese food, Mr. Chu's is the place to go.“

“I've always liked the food from China City 2, and I've never had a bad meal from here. Also, the lady is very nice and friendly. However, since the pandemic began in early-2020, their prices have gone through the roof!!! I understand, same thing could be said for supermarkets, gas, and the supply chain, but this is borderline insane pricing! Maybe their rent went up 75%? Not sure... Whatever the case may be, I used to be able to get a soup, egg roll, and some kind of chicken or beef and broccoli dish, with roast pork fried rice, for around $12. Now it's around $19. Big difference! Still fresh, clean and tasty, but for a take-out joint, a bit overly expensive, to say the least!“

“Hands down best chinese food in the area. Everything is fresh and high quality. Delivery is always on time and most importantly the service is great. In all my time ordering here (about 2 years) they have always gotten my order right the first time. No business is perfect, but DB Chinese is as close as it gets.“

“Looking for a change in ordering Chinese food and was very happy with this restaurant. Their hot and sour soup was so flavorful. Just the right amount of hot and seasoned perfectly. The chicken chow mein was delicious with lots of chicken and a wonderful sauce. The pork fried rice also was nicely prepared with excellent flavors. Even their egg rolls were nice and crispy without being greasy. Will be adding the China Pavilion to our list of takeout locations.“

“Fantastic Taiwanese food and incredible service. Owner Jon has been running this place for over 40 years and grows his much of the vegetables himself. He won’t hesitate to give you food recommendations and chat about his experiences. Definitely worth the trip!“

“We live in New York, but when we come to New Jersey, we get takeout from Garden Rice and bring it home. The broccoli with garlic sauce is excellent as is the cold sesame noodles. We’ve been coming here since it opened, when we lived in Chatham. The owners are friendly, the service is fast and the price is right.“

“That honey chicken wings, on God/Goddess that is the best honey ever had in my life, from anywhere, that was literally out of this world, and the fried rice was perfect, nothing was greasy, all FRESH AND CLEAN ❗❗❗❗❗❗❗?????????????“
