“The food is consistently fresh, piping hot, and packaged securely for takeout. The General Tso's chicken has a proper crunch that holds up well, and the pork fried rice has a great smoky flavor. Portion sizes are generous, the ingredients taste clean, and everything is ready on time. A reliable and straightforward local spot.“

“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.“

“Best chinese takeout around!Been coming here since I was a little kid (over 25 years). Food is good, portions are big. Your beef or chicken with broccoli actually comes with sizable amounts of beef/chicken. Other places just load up on broccoli to keep their profits. You can't go wrong!“

“Have taken out quite a few orders from this small local place, and I have to say; it’s better than any place else in the area. Insanely enough, we’ve even tried the Italian (yes, I said Italian) food on the menu and that was pretty good as well! It’s a crazy combo, but it works. Their hot and sour soup, is def one of the better ones I’ve had. All the their dishes are loaded with ingredients. The portions are not skimpy, prices are very reasonable for what you get. All ready when they tell you it will be, and given to you without any “attitude”. Give them a try….i doubt you’ll be disappointed.“

“Su was amazing! I traveled up from the East Bronx for the best Chinese take out I’ve ever had. My Uncle referred me here and I can’t imagine eating from anywhere else now. I was made to feel so special just for making such a huge order and trip but it was worth it!“

“My favorite restaurant when I lived in NJ. Always great food. Lovely staff. We even went there for dinner the day after Hurricane Sandy. They had generators and still gave us a great meal…by candlelight because the power was out.“

“This place shocked me in the best way possible, the food was soooooo good!!!! I'm so glad I took a chance with this place 🙌 it will definitely be a place I will continue to order from. The fried rice was incredibly good 👍“

“Best lunch specials that comes with soda and soup. The two people working there will have in and out in less than 10 minutes. The lady there is a beast she's cooking, taking orders and cleaning at the same time. Good place in dobbs ferry“

“Authentic Hunan-style cuisine in a family-friendly setting that’s good for kids. The stir-fried preserved radish with smoked pork was flavorful and delicious, and the stinky tofu was also excellent. A great spot for traditional Hunan food!“

“The Green Dragon 🐉 🇨🇳 is a winner 🥇 unassuming while delivering perfect taste, flavor and an incredible cuisine 👏🏻 it went straight in to my favorite Chinese Top 3 and I will be returning often, this is a true hidden gem in Northern Jersey and a must visit ⭐️🫶🏻👏🏻“

“Wonderful food. Soup is amazing. Service is great and the menu is huge“

“Best Chinese food there is in NJ. Drive over 20 minutes to get this and they just moved into a beautiful new spot that is super clean. Always impressed with their food and it never disappoints. I get the Mango chicken always and its insanely good.“

“We recently organized a Sheva Brachot for 40 people, and couldn’t have been more pleased with the experience. The food was delicious and plentiful, there was something for everyone, and our guests thoroughly enjoyed it.
The delivery and set up by Eli was prompt and efficient. He was courteous, helpful, making the entire process smooth and stress free. We would highly recommend them for any special occasion and would gladly use them again!“

“This place is a gem! My husband has been coming here since he’s been a kid. We were in the area and decided to stop in and eat. They were very pleasant and friendly on the phone when I called to place the order. The owner immediately recognized my husband once we arrived and was very welcoming. The place was very clean and the food was fresh and delicious. We will definitely be coming back here when we are in the area. Very happy this place hasn’t lost its touch over the years.“

“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.“

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

“We are seriously SO impressed with Essex Chinese Kitchen. The food is amazing — everything tasted incredibly fresh, flavorful, and high quality. And on top of that, the prices are very reasonable for the portions you get.

We ordered the bubble teas (brown sugar milk tea and original milk tea), and they were SO good — perfectly balanced with that floral black tea flavor coming through. Not overly sweet, just smooth and refreshing.

I got the golden fried brown shrimp with fried rice and it was FIRE. Crispy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. My boyfriend ordered the chicken and broccoli, and they absolutely do NOT skimp on portions. The serving sizes were generous and so satisfying.

The staff were also super friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better.

Honestly, we found our spot. We’re definitely becoming regulars. Highly recommend if you’re in the area!“

“EVERYTHING eat everything sooo good“

“BEST CHINESE IN BERGEN COUNTY

I stopped eating just to write how much I love this spot. I order almost once a week. The food never disappoints and I believe they truly deserve 5 stars. They have wonderful customer service, always pleasant when I call, speedy delivery, and quality food (and packaging) There is no other chinese food in bergen country i’ve found that I can say has all of these qualities about them. Tonight I ordered sweet and sour chicken with chicken lo mein. The lo mein is so good I would give it a 9/10. The sweet and sour chicken is my favorite. 10/10. Highly recommend if you want quick delivery and great chinese food.“

“Awesome food and service. Nice atmosphere. nice bar upon entry“

“I had such a wonderful time at 17 Cedar St B in Dobbs Ferry! The place is exceptionally clean and well-maintained. The attention to detail truly stands out, making for a very comfortable and enjoyable experience. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-notch location in the area. Five stars!“

“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.“

“This place is CRIMINALLY underrated! The food tastes fresher than any of the other Chinese food places in the area, the staff are so friendly and accommodating, and the atmosphere is rather cozy. Would highly recommend and will most definitely be returning.“

“Thrilled they reopened! The BEST take out ever.While they were closed, tried three Yonkers take out, all three HORRIBLE and dirty ! You want great Chinese ?? First Wok by all means ❤️“

“Great food. No eat-in option, take out only. Order is always accurate and they load up the containers! Large size lo mien will feed the normal hungry eater for at least 2 days!! Great polite service and very convenient location, right off of Maple Ave!“

“The food is fabulous. The service is phenomenal. anything you get will be great!!!“

“I have just about tried every place and near my town of Rutherford. And every place IS HORRIBLE and gets delivered Lukewarm-cold and we are in town. But China Moon is a couple towns away and the food is always HOT & Fresh!!! Best Chinese food in the AREA!!“

“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!“

“Delicious, friendly, and classic favorites! My family had eaten there and brought home food for me and it was delicious! So I went back to check it out myself. People were friendly, parking was in back, and menu was full of classic favorites. Highly recommend!“

“Xavier went above and beyond to help me because I am vegan! Im so grateful because I was alittle worried if it would be easy to order here. Thanks Xavier for making my life easier as soon as I stepped in the door!!! I will definitely recommend others!“

“Celebrated my daughter’s twentieth bday! Fun with the fam“

“Great coffee and service. ☕️“

“My favorite front counter person is back. She gets it right the first time, pleasant and sorely missed. She went away for a while and her replacement was nice, but just not the same. Oh, and with her return she brought higher prices. What hasn't eh? Food is decent and the delivery is quick. Minimum delivery has gone from $10 to $15. Not hard to reach as the prices went up, remember? Only place I buy from now is PIONEER.“

“Change of style which I love owner very nice and sweet food was very good rice was great and very fresh pork fried rice was not bad at all I will love to come again 😍✨“

“Delicious consistent food and service. YUM!“

“For a long time I've been in search for a good Chinese takeout restaurant in Rockland. China King in New City USED to be really good. But they've gone down in quality. Now, I think there's a new King in town. I've eaten at Great Wall about 5 times in the past 3 weeks and I think this is easily the best Chinese food in Rockland. Every dish's ingredients is SOOOO fresh with great tastes. Absolutely delicious! I look forward to trying more of their dishes.“

“New Blue Sky is so good that I’m genuinely convinced Vincent Lin has a secret lab in the back making the food scientifically addictive. Every time I say “I’ll just order a little,” I somehow leave with enough food to feed a village.

And Vincent himself might be the hardest working cashier ever. I’m pretty sure bro takes orders, cooks, manages the restaurant, and controls the weather at the same time.

In Vincent we trust

“I’m really glad this place is close by. The food here is very tasteful. I order the garlic shrimp with mixed vegetables and they always serve fresh vegetables and generously sized shrimp. In my opinion, it’s one of the best Chinese takeouts in the Nyack area. The owners are a hardworking family who provide friendly service.“

“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.“

“Called my usual place ans they were closed. I thought Chinese food is always open. Found this place in a Google search and the woman answered, was friendly and pleasant. Service was great and fast. Food was good for Chinese take out and they gave good portions.“

“My go-to local spot for Chinese food! Their dishes are consistently fresh and flavorful, and not heavy or greasy. Portions are generous and they are always accommodating with special requests. Overall great service and the owners are genuinely kind.“

“This is the spot“

“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“

“Garden China in Elmwood Park is actually insane—in the best way possible. The food is so good it feels illegal, like every dish was made by chefs competing for a trophy.

And shoutout to Jayden Wu, easily the BEST cashier ever. I’m convinced the place runs perfectly just because he’s there.

If you haven’t gone yet, you’re missing out big time.“

“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.“

“Service is a little slow bc it is a family own place but totally worth the wait. The Ramen was fantastic and so was the sushi. Wish I had taken pictures but I didn’t think it would be this good.

A must stop in the area, we just happened to be driving by after work“

“Not only it’s a food amazing and I hate when they’re closed… I don’t even order from anywhere else except for this place! But as I was saying, not only is the food amazing but I believe they have two delivery people. I forgot the other one’s name but the one that I communicate most with and have actual conversations with for the past few years is named Jacob. He is just a breath of fresh air. I feel so great after speaking to him, so it’s on a whole it’s like the whole package I will never order from any other place than this one ❤️“

“Excellent, local Chinese restaurant (take-out) - run by the nicest family! Food is fresh, and prepared so well. For first time, ordered 'Saigon mei fun' for workers - it was delicious. Have been ordering here for many years - definitely recommend.“
