35 Best Asian Restaurants near Montclair

“To start with, the service was fantastic. everyone was attentive to our needs but at no time did we feel like we were being pressured. The food was all delicious and the pricing for main dishes and sushi was very reasonable. The menu is very creative and the dishes are presented beautifully. Definitely worth trying and I would eat there again.“

“This place is fantastic, the taste is good, the service is friendly, the atmosphere is great. I'll come again next time.“

“When my fiancée's Thai food craving hit, we decided to break from our usual routine and try SLA Thai for the first time. Ordering take out through DoorDash, we went with two noodle dishes and a classic dessert to get a proper taste of their offerings.

My fiancée chose the Pad Kemao, a flat noodle dish with shrimp and eggplant. While she found it satisfying with well-cooked shrimp and pleasant eggplant texture, it didn't quite reach the heights of her favorite version from Papa Thai in Bloomfield. The flavors were good but somewhat muted compared to what she's used to, decent but not remarkable enough to dethrone her go-to spot.

I opted for the Pad See Ew and was pleasantly surprised despite an initial strong fishy aroma when opening the container (likely from oyster or fish sauce). The first bite won me over with fresh, perfectly chewy noodles and that great balance of savory and slightly sweet flavors Thai food does so well. My only real complaint was the complete lack of spice, a real miss since DoorDash didn't offer spice level customization for this order. Next time I'll definitely call ahead to request some heat, because what's Thai food without a little kick?

For dessert we tried the Sweet Mango Sticky Rice, which my mango-loving fiancée was especially excited about. The coconut flavor in the rice was spot on, rich and aromatic. Although some of the rice was disappointingly dry and hard, like it had been sitting for a while. The saving grace was the perfectly ripe, sweet mango that she devoured happily. I found it a bit too sugary for my taste, but then again, I'm not the mango enthusiast in this relationship. It's a dessert that would satisfy anyone with a serious sweet tooth, assuming the rice comes out fresher next time.

Overall, SLA Thai delivered a solid takeout experience with some clear highlights (that Pad See Ew in particular) and a few areas for improvement. The noodle dishes showed good technique with fresh ingredients, though the inability to specify spice levels through DoorDash was frustrating.

While it didn't surpass our favorite Thai spot, it's definitely a place we'd order from again - though next time I'll be calling ahead to request spice adjustments and maybe crossing my fingers for better-executed sticky rice. For a first try, it was promising enough that we'd give them another shot when we're in the mood for something different.“

“A cozy little Taiwanese joint in Harrison, NJ. I ordered the salt & pepper chicken bento — the fried chicken was super crispy and juicy, and the portion was bigger than expected. What really stood out was their homemade chili oil — rich, fragrant, and perfectly spicy. The side dishes were thoughtful and balanced, not just fillers. Great vibes, warm service, and a menu full of familiar flavors. I’ll be back.“

“We were in town from Wisconsin to see Metallica. The day after the concert , we were looking for something good to eat and found Dumpling Dojo. Looking thru the menu , we knew we had to try. AMAZING!! We had one of the best meals we have had in a long time and my husband and I like to eat. We go to a lot of high ends places, but as I said , this place was extraordinary. The staff very friendly and helpful. We had the fried pork belly , tangerine beef , shrimp dumplings, fried shrimp and ramen noodle. And for desert , out of the world raspberry cheese cake wontons with whipped cream and fruit garnish. Nothing was too spicy but so flavorful. Again , you really need to try this place. Thank You !!“

“This cute little neighborhood spot is my new favorite hangout. The ambiance is nice and bright, the staff is super high vibrational, and it’s reflected in the food! 🤤 the juices are fresh, the tacos are simply mouthwatering, and the sandwiches will blow your mind. I ate so much and left feeling supercharged haha- pure alchemy ✨🤌🏾 I’m eating here again tomorrow! 😹“

“$@&&ing love this place. Pick up times are shorter if you call versus using the app. Service is always fast and friendly. Food is fresh and flavorful. We’ve tried other places and don’t even consider them anymore. This is our got to for Chinese and sushi.

Updating my review to say that: The owners are strong supporters of our local community. I’ve witnessed them always adding in something extra for our first responders. Similarly, customer loyalty is reciprocated in big ways every time we visits. Thank you Yama!“

“My 1st time ordering take out here. The food was on time and delicious .“

“Great dinner tonight as always!! Thank you!“

“Ordered takeout and was seriously impressed!
The hibachi chicken noodles were absolutely delicious, and the sushi was both filling and flavorful.
You have to try the Crazy Tuna roll — perfectly spicy and just incredible.
Prices were very reasonable, and the portion sizes were much better than other nearby sushi spots.
I’m definitely coming back — this might just become my go-to dinner place!“

“Excellent food ,Large portions ,great service BYOB!!!!“

“I have been coming here almost monthly since March and I would come two or three times per year for the past five years. The quality of the food is fresh, the service is pleasant, and they make your food fast! Highly recommend the sushi. I would come more, but I live out of town!“

“Great food, great prices, great service!!! I will definitely be returning.“

“I can't believe this place. Not only was it the best place ever, I ordered every few weeks and tried something different every time. It never disappointed me. The foods were delicious, i really recommend the boneless spare ribs, with bone and without. I also like the sesame chicken with the savory sauce. Best place in the whole entire world. This is the number one place I recommend. Please come and try out the food! Don't worry, the people are very kind as well.“

“Everything I ordered way flavorful and delicious. Waitress a little weird and in lala land when you asked her for things but doesnt take away from how good the food was. Can't wait to go back.“

“One of the best Chinese delivery places near me in Pine Brook. The food tastes fresh.“

“I can’t get enough of Soy & Ginger Wok Grill! Their beef and broccoli is always on point—tender beef and fresh broccoli in a flavorful sauce that makes each bite so satisfying. The chicken wings are crispy and packed with flavor, definitely one of my go-to orders.

The house special fried rice is another highlight—perfectly cooked with just the right mix of ingredients. The portions are generous, and everything is consistently fresh and delicious. If you're craving amazing Asian cuisine, Soy & Ginger Wok Grill never disappoints!“

“Hearty & delicious noodle soup choice of the food court! I love how they serve the noodles in a separated bowl — especially if you plan on taking it to-go. Enjoyed the shrimp & wonton noodle soup & the beef noodle soup! This place is now my go-to spot for mall food!“

“After a gig nothing better than sushi snack“

“Ordered for delivery... a few times already. Wait time is approximately 45 minutes but the food was worth the wait. Came properly cooked, hot and the taste wasn't bad at all. The person taking the order on the phone took time to answer my questions and spoke clearly. The driver was courteous as well. A nice alternative for days when you just don't feel like cooking or just have the craving for mostly fried food 😋“

“If you want amazing out of this world Thai Food this is the place to be. I have been coming to Topaz for about 15 years and never have I had a dish I wasn’t satisfied with. Not only that but if you have had the pleasure of meeting “Mama” you know it’s like walking into your own home that’s how comfortable she makes you feel. 🥰 #ExoticFood #MamaKnowsBest“

“This is by far the best takeout sushi in at least a 20 mile radius, short of expensive sit down omakase. Fish is always fresh, never a “fishy” smell or taste, delivery and pickup orders always correct, very nice people. The fish to rice ratio in the rolls is perfect. Special rolls are a good value and delicious. Hope it stays in business for 50 years“

“I loved the food and service here. Very delicious.“

“The food here was really good. The customer service was just okay but I got my food quickly. Finding a parking spot can be hard especially if there is an event in the area.
I got the shrimp and broccoli and wings and they were both really good.“

“The Only place I eat Chinese food is Lotus. They cook with love and I've never seen a cleaner Shop. They are very kind and after 20 years, they are the same from the first time we met. I moved away from West Orange but I always come back to eat here. If not, I dont eat. Other chinese spots do not have the same quality tasty food or service. I consider them like family and the food is very good to me. Their Boneless Ribs are the best in NJ. The Dipping Sauce made in house for Dumplings should be sold in Stores. They did have homemade sweet Tea that flew off the shelves. He has to make that again. That too should be sold in stores. They do not disappoint. Top 2 Spots for Chinese Food in NJ. I use to drive a Limo around NJ. There's no better place you'd want to eat. Keep going. Im hungry now 🥳💯🔥“

“Hands-down the best sushi in NJ, and probably the tri-state area, including NYC. I worked in NYC for 15 years and this place is superior to any sushi restaurants I went to.“

“We used to come here on a weekly basis pre-Covid. Loved the food, but didn't like the service and felt the wait staff was rude.

Recently we had dinner here a few times and something has changed. The decor has been updated as has the menu and the wait staff is much, much better. In fact, they recognize us as former customers and are always happy to see us. We have now returned to coming here more regularly as the food is very good.

Sakura has a parking lot as well as options to park on the street. We never wait when we come here and it's BYOB, so we enjoy bringing our own selection of sake or wines.

Nice varied menu with lots of choices. Our favorites are chirashi sushi, age dashi tofu, all their special rolls are wonderful and my all-time favorite appetizer which is large enough to be an entree - Summer Garden.“

“I’ve been here about 4 times now and it’s time to give it a review… this food here is outstanding, it’s truly the Thai flavor of how those dishes should be prepared. The staff is always pleasant and courteous each time I’ve been ! Definitely recommend to my friends and family anytime I take someone new especially to Thai food I take them here.. they have the best pad Thai and wonton soup I’ve ever had“

“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!❤️❤️❤️🥰“

“My only complaint is that this place is a little expensive for what it is. This is a great family restaurant place. The KBBQ is a bit expensive and I didn't get it. Instead i got Bulgulgi (Kitchen) and some Bimbimbap.

Both were great. Would come back again.“

“Absolutely delicious dumplings. Great variety. Excellent prices. (They even have frozen dumplings to take home and cook.) Super casual- a few shared tables and people rotate through quickly.“

“This was my 1st time. I had meet with some friends.

I will definitely return to eat at this place.“
