50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Piscataway

“This place is the most solid and consistent American Chinese restaurant in the entire New Brunswick area. Portions are fantastic and the food is always so hot and fresh. They are happy to accommodate my vegan partner by subbing tofu for meat in already vegan dishes.“

“Absolutely delicious! The noodles were fresh, flavorful, and had the perfect texture. Everything tasted authentic and comforting, and the portions were generous. The broth was especially good—rich and full of flavor without being too heavy. Service was friendly and quick, and the whole experience felt warm and welcoming. Definitely a great spot when you’re craving a good bowl of Chinese noodles. We’ll be back!“

“Ordered from here for about a decade, probably once a month, food is always good, it's better than what you would expect from a local family owned Chinese food spot.
Double Wonder lunch, beef lo Mein, wings and fries, dumplings, pancakes, ribs, beef and broccoli, sweet and sour chicken, Mongolian beef. Everything is cooked well and tastes great. Hands down best spot in the vicinity.“

“i ordered the mala dry pot which is pretty expesnive at 35 dolars compareddd to other items. While the flavor isnt that bad I feel like they pad it up with way too many veggies and such; theres not that much meat which im kinda disappointed with especially with how much im payin“

“I absolutely love coming to this place and I don't usually say that a lot about a lot of Chinese food restaurants. The staff is extremely friendly when you walk in. The food is also amazing even to the fact that one time I ordered their food and they gave me the completely incorrect order in the food was still out of this world.“

“The food is pretty greasy so it's a bit of an acquired taste, but I feel like if you love Chinese food you will love this place. The boneless ribs and chow fun are the highlights, also nice that they have shrimp rolls. The ribs have a ton of Chinese five spice and ginger flavor which is unique. They do almost all of the classic dishes quite well. Pay cash because you get free drinks.“

“It’s pretty good but I’ve only been here once. I’ve tried a lot of Asian fast food places and their food is better than average. The lo mien is tasty, not too salty or dry. I also got the sesame chicken which was tender but just a lil too strong with the seasoning (kind of salty). The tofu was reallly good!! Nice customer service too.“

“The portions are really generous — plenty of fish slices and side dishes, great value for the price. The taste is excellent too: the broth is tangy, spicy, and appetizing, and the fish is tender and full of flavor. The service was also satisfying — the staff were warm and attentive, the food came out quickly, and the whole experience was comfortable.“

“amazing! great tasty stuff“

“The environment of the restaurant was amazing! The aroma and taste of the soup was delicious and fulfilling. Definitely would come back again.
Customer service was great. It’s been a while since we visited and they have added several different soup base choices. We went for the basic chicken broth with fish maw, but will definitely try other ones next time.
All the hot pot restaurants in the area are all-you-can-eat, but this one isn’t. However, the quality of the soup stock is way better and the dining environment is quieter.“

“My date and I came here last night and everything was excellent! The wait staff was also very attentive and answered all of our questions and was able to offer recommendations. We got a fish and egg appetizer which was absolutely amazing, the sour and spicy black cod soup, and the osmanthus lotus root for dessert. You can order from iPads that have pictures of everything on the menu and it sends everything straight to the kitchen. It may be helpful if you speak Mandarin but it is not necessary.“

“Hot pot is often very hard to eat. Our vegetarian family often struggles to find food not contaminated with meat or fish. At Mala Town, we were very pleased to see how thoroughly the dishes and utensils were cleaned. Furthermore, the food options were vast, fresh and customizable. This place is perfect!“

“I’ve never written a review while sitting in the restaurant but it is genuinely just that good. Im used to having less flavorful food with having to choose none meat options but the Mapo Tofu was so flavorful as well as the Sauerkraut Fish Soup and the service was incredible. It felt like a crime that this place isn't more busy. Would come here again!“

“Really good food and late nights eats to be quite honest. It’s affordable to people going to Rutgers nearby and quick and easy to get to. Not too far from the yard and it makes it more convenient if you’re a nearby college student or just living in the area. Good eats I’d say“

“Excellent cold sesame noodles! Everything is so fresh!“

“Great food. The sampler dumplings are awesome.“

“We love this place. Its not pretty, but it is delicious and the rice dumplings are my favorite. Essentially it's a Customizable, never ending stir fry with noodles instead of rice. They cook it on a grill when you put everything together, so not ideal for vegetarians as the grill shares with meat.“

“Personally, I think this is the best hotpot place in this area. Its a small restaurant but it’s so cozy, the staff is so kind, and the food is delicious. My husband and I always start off with their Sliced Beef and OX Tongue in Chili Sauce ( it’s served cold but it’s so good!). We then get their hotpot ( you can definitely share one order with two people). Their spice level is no joke! - and it’s delicious. We also love their specialty drinks; they’re so refreshing and help cut the spice level from the hotpot.
The staff is so helpful and accommodating. We have baby, and they have always gone above and beyond to make sure we are seated comfortably with our stroller by our side. It’s one of the few places that we have found easily fits a full stroller next to our table.
We’ve brought all our family and friends here because of how much we love this place.
The parking space is a little small, but there are plenty of neighboring parking spots that you can use.“

“This place is absolutely delicious! Great service, great atmosphere, and amazingggg food. I will be talking about this place to everybody! So good. I went around 6 PM on a Monday night, and it wasn’t crowded at all. We tried 5 different types of dumplings, and they were all super amazing and flavorful. Scallion pancakes too, of course, and they were also delicious! The place is super clean, and everything was great.“

“Wow! Really hard to put into words how incredible the dining experience was here. The service, beverages, & chefs tasting menu was an experience unlike any I’ve ever had before. The food was art & tasted just as beautiful as it looked. Thank you to the team for being so passionate about what you’re doing, and I look forward to returning again someday.“

“First time at ugly dumplings. The service was awesome. Allie was our server and she provided A+++ service. Checking in with us to make sure we were okay or needed anything. The food was delicious, fresh, and super fast! Thank you Allie for your awesome service, it makes a difference!“

“Delicious Food, Outstanding Service! We have been ordering from this restaurant since it opened and it’s truly become our go-to spot. The food is consistently delicious—the taste has never changed, and every meal feels just as special as the first. The owner is the friendliest person you’ll meet, and the service is always top-notch. Our Favorite Dishes: Garlic Sauce Dish with Chicken and Shrimp: Our absolute favorite—always packed with flavor and perfectly cooked. Sesame Tofu: Deliciously crispy with a great sesame flavor. Dry Pot Dish: Spicy, savory, and full of exciting textures. Sichuan Hot & Sour Soup: The perfect balance of heat and tang. Red Curry Dish: Rich, aromatic, and satisfying. We’ve recommended this place to so many friends, and everyone agrees it’s a winner. Highly recommended for anyone looking for great food and a welcoming atmosphere!“

“I had such a great time at Xie Bao today. The service was great firstly, the food was also amazing. Everything came out so hot and fresh, you can tell that they put a lot of love, time, and soul into their presentation & flavor of their dishes. Everything is ordered by tablet & there are so many dishes on the menu to try. They even have sea food boils Cajun style to cater to all tastebuds. I order the sweet and sour squirrel fish (very different for me but delicious & beautifully served), the viral crab roe that lives up to the hype. Service was great & the restaurant is very clean, I will definitely be back !!!“

“Went today as I was driving around. And saw this unassuming place. Had the suchuan beef noodle soup. It blew my mind, taste was unbelievable. As an Asian American who lives in Edison. I know my food. And this dish was great. Will go back and try different food t“

“It’s rare outside of Chinatown to find an Asian restaurant making and using their own dough (flour?) from scratch, but this is what they say at the shop and I saw them doing it!

Dumpling House is in the same space as Hawaiian Poke so they have a wide menu of Asian food spanning Japanese, Chinese, and Hawaiian. They’re in a plaza right off of Washington Valley Rd with decent parking.

I’ve ordered takeout several times and tried:
- sushi rolls
- sushi burrito
- poké bowl
- steamed dumplings

And each time it’s been decent. EDIT: I just ordered steamed dumplings and really like them as far as texture and taste! They provide soy sauce and chili oil which fit perfectly. I’d come back for these.“

“Nice restaurant with a lot of specialties dishes that would be perfect for dinner with big group to share. This restaurant serve house tea which is a big plus. The meat patty is delicious. The rice dishes are okay, looking forward to try more specialties dishes.“

“This is a great restaurant find. The food is absolutely delicious, like home cooking and the portions are large. The staff and service are friendly and attentive. It’s a nice friendly atmosphere to dine and enjoy a meal with family and friends. My wife and I make a point of eating here once a week. The prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend Dragoon Palace It’s a rare jem.“

“Had such a great experience at The Crab House! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff was so friendly and attentive. Everything was fresh and flavorful. Definitely a spot I’d recommend and I’ll be back! 🦀❤“

“The ma-la stir fry is the best I’ve had anywhere in the state. Recommend to come and try Spice24 in particular. I come every other week and have never had a bad experience.“

“Cozy shop serving authentic Fujianese comfort food, including xiao long bao, peanut butter noodles, wonton soup, fried dough, fried oyster cakes, fresh soy milk, green bean soup, beef noodle soup, and a variety of rice dishes.

The staff were incredibly friendly and made excellent recommendations, making the experience even more enjoyable.

With only about 10 seats, it’s a cozy spot focus on delicious, traditional flavors.

Highly recommended if you’re looking for authentic Fujianese dim sum and noodle cuisine!“

“I had a great experience at this Venezuelan-Chinese restaurant in the U.S. The food tastes just like back home in Venezuela, authentic, flavorful, and really well prepared. Every dish reminded me of that classic Chinese Venezuelan flavor we love so much. The service was friendly and the atmosphere was very welcoming. Overall, everything was excellent and I will definitely be coming back.“

“Love their Bento boxes!!!“

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

“This place has been my go-to Chinese spot to get food from the foods pretty good the service there is great the ladies that take your order are very sweet very genuine and they always make you laugh. Me and my family have been ordering here for I don't know how long but it's our go-to spot, the food portions are good and the prices for most things are fair.“

“Excellent food, friendly family business. Highly recommend! Best Chinese Food in the area!“

“Love the food here and enjoy the experience. Will keep coming back.“

“Tasty Kitchen truly exceeded expectations! The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The fried rice was perfectly seasoned! The beef and broccoli was tender with a rich, savory sauce. The sushi rolls and Kani Salad were amazing!
The wings were SO crispy and juicy Everything tasted like it was made with care and quality ingredients. We were so content and happy with all our food choices that we got and the variety of food to choose from is absolutely great!

On top of that, the restaurant and kitchen were extremely clean, which made the experience even better and more reassuring. You can tell they take pride not only in their food but also in maintaining a spotless environment.

I’ve lived in the area for about 26 years, and this is hands down the best Chinese/Japanese food in town! Today is the first time we tried their Chinese and we dined in! We had only tried their sushi twice before at a friends house and we loved it so we decided to finally come and take a look ourselves!

Let me tell you I highly recommend Tasty Kitchen if you’re looking for delicious, high-quality Chinese food! Definitely will be coming here whenever we are craving Chinese or sushi!“

“I recently visited Sultan Wok for a quick meal and was amazed. Their half chicken fried rice and boneless spare ribs were not only delicious but also served remarkably fast. The perfect balance of flavor in every bite and the swift service made my dining experience outstanding. Sultan Wok is definitely the go-to spot for anyone seeking great Chinese food without the hassle of waiting!“

“This is my all time favorite Chinese Restaurant! The food is delicious, generous portions and friendly service! We missed them during their brief closure for the beginning of the pandemic. Thank you!!“

“I got the vegetable fried rice and the plain lo mein side. Both delicious! Noodles were nice and thick and come out hot! Both came out hot nice and fresh. Service was very friendly and attentive. They also had these crunchy noodles that they give you with the sweet sauce dip and the hot mustard dip. Very good as well.“

“I hadn't visited this place in over 10 years [out of state] and I must say it's just as good as is was back then. I used to LOVE going here and id just sit on my car and eat egg rolls in the parking lot lol. It's such a cute little spot with great food. Idk if it's the same owners since back then but still amazing !!“

“Just ordered for the first time from this place and I have to say , WOW....the general chicken was delicious and the fried rice was very good .
I can't wait to try more options because based on what I have had im sure im going to love it.
Sorry I didn't post any pics but ate it way too fast like it was my last meal.
Very good portion size
Very good flavor
I definitely recommend“

“Was in the area and tried this place for the first time and really enjoyed it. Price was good and the portion size was very good! Flavorful and really tasty pork dumplings in broth. I appreciated the bok choy in the broth. If I’m in the area again, I would like to try other items on the menu.“

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

“Good Shanghai dumping with ginger and black vinegar. Should have more veggies on chef special. Ok thanks“

“Great Chinese food spot, nothing fancy just great food“

“Just found this place and so glad we did! Excellent food, service and prices. They use high quality ingredients which is rare these days. Our regular place has downgraded their quality under new ownership and we had given up on good Chinese in the area until we found Kwongs. They will be our go to. Highly recommend!!“
