50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Old Tappan

“We arrived at this restaurant for dinner. This place was recommended to us by a friend. Well, it was a winning. the staff were so friendly and we had a fantastic feeling. The food was just great. We had a great time and we will visit this place again. Keep it up.“

“Had an amazing experience at this PF Changs, our server Greg was extremely attentive and friendly. Love it here! Make sure to get the crab wontons as an app:)“

“We were staying at the Tarrytown house estate and decided to visit Goosefeather for dinner, not having any idea about the restaurant other than that it was located on-site. As Chinese-style martial artists, we were pleasantly surprised to see the Cantonese -fusion menu options as we walked in. Unfortunately, we did not have reservations, but we were able to sit at the bar. What an auspicious turn of luck! The bar offers not only the full menu, but the chance to watch professionals at their craft. We were taken care of by Mariana and Sara, who were busy yet still highly attentive. They were very knowledgeable about the menu, and explained everything even before our questions had a habce to leave our lips. We started with some standard drinks (a spicy martini, and one of their mocktails with Ron Zacapa rum added in). Solid pours, balancing the flavors of the drinks with adequate alcohol to keep things fun). Next week ordered the spicy rice cakes and the potstickers. Each was perfectly done. The potstickers were crispy but not burnt, and paired with a just-right spicy Chinese mustard. There were four per serving, which served to whet out appetites while leaving us waiting for more. Next, we got the spicy rice cakes. These were just hot enough to let the tongue know, but the spice built pleasantly. The plate was pretty big, and the two of us had more than one or two helpings each. Finally, we had the Crying Tiger Tuna. The lightly seared and seasoned tuna was paired with avocado salad, pickled gooseberries, and sweet goji berries. Delicious! To cap it off, we switched up our drinks for two of their signature cocktails. Sweet emotion is a pumpkin espresso martini with a smoky bubble of deliciousness in top. Love in an Elevator is a wild rum ride of flavors I'd never think to blend, such as apricot, chocolate, and lemon. Overall, while pricey, the experience, the food, and the atmosphere made it worth it! As a bonus, we were watched over by a really cool portrait of Bruce Lee!“

“This restaurant has consistently gotten better. Everything I've tried has been great. Tonight I had the best barbecue spare ribs I've had in a long time.“

“I came here for lunch with my swim team and everything was amazing. The atmosphere, the service, the company, and the food. It’s like a Chinese style Chipotle, where you can customize your own bowl or try a signature dish. The staff was super friendly and the artwork on the wall was eye catching. Would recommend coming here! The only thing is it’s a little pricey and if you want to add meat or seafood to your bowl it costs a few cents extra.“

“5 stars does not do this place justice… the atmosphere… welcoming and warm! the service… attentive and friendly! the food… delicious and filling! me and my friends ordered food here and we LOVED it; will be back again without question!“

“Hands down best Chinese food around the area.I usually make my own Chinese food but when I’m not feeling it I always buy from here only!The people are friendly and food is tasty. We have received stale fried noodles before that’s probably the worst thing.“

“I haven’t eaten such authentic Hunan cuisine in a long time! The boss is from Zhangjiajie and the homemade wine is delicious! The pickled radish in the "soy skin" hot pot is also delicious and the beef is very tasty. I wish the boss a prosperous business!“

“I’ve been coming here from when I used to go to Tenafly Middle school. This place was my go to for after school snack.
Price is still amazing for lunch deals around $8~$12, portions are generous, and ultimately foods are great.
It’s been more than 10 years but I’ll still come to Tenafly just for Good Taste general chicken tsp combo.
Highly recommended.“

“I have been going there for the pass 18 years, food is absolutely delish, I even get my take-out from there.“

“I've lived in Fair Lawn my whole life and never visited up until a couple months ago. I went to a place in Saddle Brook which is also great. But that place was closed on a Monday so I came to Great Wall. Very happy. Reasonably priced and delicious. NOT SALTY! I can't tell you the difference in the quality of food. The owner is such a sweet person too. Always smiling and thank you. Give it a try!!!“

“I love eating the plant base food with so much flavor, their juices are amazing!“

“First off I order from this place all the time they’re always clean never any issues with the food their honey chicken wings are the absolute best. I always get that from there but their food is delicious

Parking: The parking is located in the back of the building and there’s an entrance through the back of the store so you don’t have to walk all the way around“

“Was nearby and needed lunch and was in the mood for Chinese and saw the reviews on this place and decided to give it a try. Asked for special order of Beef and Broccoli with garlic sauce, no problem attitude! Food was great and ready in no time! Would come back for sure.“

“Very nice people, they are friendly and the food was good. I ordered for delivery and it came fast but that will depend on if the restaurant is busy or not! There are a couple flies but thats because they leave the door open and i dont mind it because some restaurants leave the door closed and it gets hot and humid when they cook. I enjoy this place and i will be coming back“

“Great quality Chinese take out food. We've had the General TSO chicken combo with pork fried rice and an egg roll and the chicken chow fun which both are very delicious. Their food hits the spot whenever we crave Chinese take out and they get our order right every time. This is the only Chinese spot we trust in Rockland county, they're awesome“

“The food here is mad good my dad always got for me back when I was in high school I always got the lunch menu this is the only Chinese place I like I’m a really picky person when it comes to my food and the son kept me company all the time while waiting“

“Outstanding Chinese takeout. The food is tasty, the ingredients are fresh and the recipes are of that of a high-rated, full service restaurant quality. Great scallion pancakes, fried rice (that is not greasy) and everything is made-to-order how we like it.“

“I absolutely LOVE this restaurant! The food is absolutely phenomenal and their customer service is exquisite! I never have any issues when I dine in or when I order delivery. This is the best Chinese food restaurant in Hackensack!!! 10 out of 10 I highly recommend ordering from “

“We ordered delivery off of the website, the food came quick and everything we tried was delicious! If you’re new to the area and trying to find your Chinese food spot, definitely give this one a try. We ordered Wonton soup, General Tso combo with pork fried rice, wings combo with house special fried rice, boneless spareribs, and egg rolls. To me the wonton soup was perfect, not super salty like you get from other places, and the wontons were hearty and tasty. The general tso combo was the perfect amount of food, it made two meals for me and had the perfect amount of spice for me as it’s normally made. If you like spicier you could probably request that. My husband loved the wings and the house special fried rice. The boneless spareribs were really really good, I’ve ordered them from other places and there’s always an after taste, here they’re cooked perfectly. The only thing we noticed was the egg rolls did seem to be a bit oily inside, but other than that also very tasty.“

“Great Food at fair prices ! kids and I love this place!!“

“I adore this spot! They give decent food, their menu is decent, The chief cook in that place is a professional, I enjoy a lot trying all their food. The dishes are consistently of high class, the service towards the customers is helpful. I visit often this restaurant and I not even once was unsatisfied. I recommend it to all.“

“Always drove by it and saw advertising in our local Clipper but never jumped in until a few days ago. Three Asians cuisine, Chinese, Japanese and Thai. Had dinner with my family, my daughter ordered shrimp fried rice, my wife had Mei fun noodles while I ordered the yellow curry tofu. We all also shared sushi rolls, sashimi and hand rolled sushi. My curry dish was amazing just as good as if I had it at a Thai only restaurant. My daughter said the best fried rice she’s had and the same with my wife’s noodle dish. Plenty of different dishes to choose from specially if your family can agree on a cuisine. The service was great and attentive and the atmosphere was nice and mellow.

Vegetarian options: Tofu or just veggies can be substituted.“

“My YouTube channel brought my here and they did not disappoint! My favorite dishes I tried were the boneless spare ribs and the beef lo mein. The one area I think that can be improved on is with the pork fried rice. Other than that this place is amazing and definitely worth checking out! Check out my full review on YouTube @YuccaWithChopsticks“

“Just picked up some Chicken in Mango sauce! So delicious! That little bit of heat with that sweet mango sauce 😀. The vegetables were crisp and fresh. Highly recommend! Husband also enjoyed his Drunken noodle!“

“items i ordered were slightly better than every other chinese place ive been. general tso chicken had a slight pineapple flavor, hinting a tang-soo-yook (for those korean) profile. veg lo mein tasted exactly how it was supposed to. even the wonton soup had this extra egg/chicken umami to it. added bonus... the mom (i assume owner) and little daughter (just hanging out there) were very welcoming and hospitable to me/wife/my 3 yr-old. perhaps this place deserves 4 - 4.5 since its not like food was anywhere close to Michelin Star level - but i rate as 5 in context of chinese take outs.“

“Their food is consistently great. We literally won't order from anywhere else. The staff is helpful and efficient. Highly recommend. There's no rating for atmosphere, because it's a take out place.“

“Extremely delicious and authentic Chinese food. As a white person who grew up in Fuzhou, China, this place instantly reminded me of my hometown. The flavors dance on my tongue like a beautiful ballet and my mouth is enveloped in heavenly textures. I seriously recommend this to EVERYONE. As someone who is currently living in Flushing, Queens, I drive to here every week with my wife and two kids. One time my kid didn't like the water the restaurant served, so of course I had to use the kung fu I learned to discipline them. Anyhow, this has to be the best restaurant on Earth. Give this restaurant a try and you won't regret it.“

“Delicious consistent food and service. YUM!“

“I'm a local. Not sure what's changed but the food has gotten significanty better recently.

In my experince, their soups, mains, even their eggrolls recently leveled up.

Looking forward to our next Chinese food night.“

“EVERYTHING eat everything sooo good“

“Chili grilled shrimp!!!!“

“I can’t say enough about this place. We have been ordering from them for 25 years. Never ever had a problem. Food is always great. We usually pick it up but get delivery every so often. The food comes so fast it’s unbelievable! And they are great about diet restrictions too!

Dietary restrictions: I am on a very low sodium diet. They always accommodate me!“

“My favorite Chinese spot in the area, by far!! Very tasty. Everything I’ve ever ordered from Lantern was great! I just wish they delivered!!

Wheelchair accessibility: There are no steps.“

“The best food and it is a pleasure every time I return to Passaic from Los Angeles I try to bring as much as I can of their delicious food and going to pick up food brings back many memories of when I lived there and my young children but 100% recommended“

“I was looking online for a Chinese food place with great reviews when I first heard of Bamboo House. It’s only been a few times that I’ve been able to stop in since I don’t live close, but whenever I’m in Ridgewood, I like to get something to eat here. It’s tough to find a truly great Chinese restaurant & this place lives up to the hype. The portions are generous, the dishes are saucy & flavorful & fresh. What really seals the deal for me though is the service; they are kind & friendly in a warm, sincere way. Bamboo House has been in business for a long time, for good reason. 10/10“

“We got delivery from here. Ordered online and got a call back within minutes for confirmation.

Everything was delicious, had great flavors and nothing was too oily.

They have a Jumbo menu to chose from, so there’s something for everyone.

Vegans welcome!

Thanks for a great meal, will definitely order from here again.“

“DON'T SLEEP ON EM-- BOULEVARD IS THE BEST CHINESE FOOD I'VE EVER HAD! THE BEST!!!!Their food is ALWAYS FRESH always hot! They always bring our order within 15 minutes! Their wings are amazing and that's why I took the time to write this review. I was shocked when I saw the ratings because I've been ordering from here for over 2 years (whenever we decide to do Chinese for dinner)They're the best!! If we move, I hope they deliever to our location.“

“I have ordered from here several times and it’s always been pretty tasty. Today I ordered to work and upon delivery I got chicken instead of beef with broccoli. I called and they told me that they would fix my order a little later when the driver has a nearby delivery. I wasn’t sure wether or not I’d get my dish, but eventually they did come and swap the dish….not something you can take for granted these days when gas prices are through the roof. So tasty food and great service. I highly recommend east wok and will order from them again for sure :-)“

“It's the only Chinese food restaurant i order from. Recommend getting their chicken wings and chicken and broccoli with pork fried rice. One thing I should mention from time to time they might accidentally forget to put hot sauce or forks but as long as you remember to mention it or take a quick check before you leave. They're super kind and great service.“

“Always fast & delicious &always very welcoming, & kind. Thank you!“

“My favorite Japanese restaurant. Chef Bing is not only talented but also creative. Food is delicious and wonderfully presented. I would highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Food is always nice and hot, have never experienced bad service from this restaurant, food is tasty. I always order take out or delivery.

Dietary restrictions: You can find tasty eggplant, tofu, green beans, and many other choices“

“I have been eating here since the pandemic. The food is just amazing. Fresh and tasty. The lady in the front even remembers my mother and my whole family. She asks about my mom every time I come in. If I could say any more positive things about this place I would. I do not eat any Chinese food from anywhere else.“

“Actually amazing. I'm a chef down in the city at a Michelin place, and this was the best Chinese takeout I've had in awhile.I peeped their ingredients and everything was fresh. Bright green veggies, even the scallions that the cooks garnished on the plates.The meat didn't have the typical freezer burn taste.Even the rice was plump as if expertly cooked in a fancy overpriced Manhattan place.The service... The solo cook was handling everything but took the time to even clear a table for my group among the boxes of supplies and hand delivered all the food. Even asked if everything was ok.When I asked for hot sauce, he gave me the legit chili sauce you find in Chinese supermarkets.This is the type of place that is a regional hidden gem. I'll be submitting this place to the times and nymag, as I would def come back again if in the area.“

“I recently tried out this Chinese restaurant and was pleasantly surprised! Their Singapore Mei Fun was absolutely delicious and bursting with flavor—you can really taste the cumin and other spices — the spice from the noodles even cleared my sinuses without being overpowering.The pork fried rice was also great, with a nice balance of flavor and none of the greasy aftertaste you sometimes get from other places. Best of all, the prices are very reasonable. Definitely a place I’ll be ordering from again!“

“It's a little bit of a shady neighborhood in the evening and parking is sparse, but the food is very good and worth checking out. No dine in. Strictly take out.

Parking: You have to circle around to find a spot.

Wheelchair accessibility: No real access for a wheelchair.“

“I’m originally from NYC (Manhattan/The Bronx) and after moving to Nyack 6 years ago, finding spots that even came close to what I was used to, was TOUGH! Until, I found this place. Their food is delish! Keeping it simple, THEY KNOW ME BY FACE AND ASK HOW MY KIDS ARE DOING! Lol.Their food is the best in Nyack! THE BEST!!!I’ve tried them all. Nothing even comes close until you reach Spring Valley, but who’s got time for that commute?Trust me, you found your spot right here! Just as good as the city. Yup. I said it! ☺️“
