50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Roseland

“Tonight was the first time we ordered from here and all I can say is AMAZING things about the entire experience. When we picked up the food, we could immediately tell it was gonna be a good dinner because the whole family was there, including the children, which everyone knows that meals cooked by family are always the best so the food was DELICIOUS! The udon noodles with beef were the best noodles we’ve ever tasted. Definitely will be our new go too for takeout!“

“I ordered a side order of boneless spare ribs small and a egg roll for my mom the ribs were very good and delicious ? perfectly cooked and not greased my mom enjoyed the egg roll. The prices are very good ? and cheaper than other Chinese restaurants. The young Asian lady who works there was very nice and sweet. Also the place was very clean and easy to find. I will definitely order again. ☺️ They don't offer delivery but you can use door dash but it's very close to where I live so I don't mind pickup.“

“Great service and fabulous food“

“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.“

“Lucky Foo in Kearny, NJ: The Real Deal Chinese Experience

If you're looking for that authentic, no-frills Chinese spot, Lucky Foo is for you.

If you're expecting some fancy American-style service, you might be in for a shock. But trust me, that's part of the charm. It's just one person cooking and one serving, and their mission? Get that homemade food to you, no matter how long it takes. Don't come here if you're in a rush - this is slow food at its finest. I learned about this style of service living in Hawaii, so it felt familiar to me.

Now, let's talk about the star of the show - the food. It's clean, packed with homestyle flavor, and will leave you feeling satisfied. That noodle soup? Pure magic. When I'm craving authentic, homemade noodle soup, this is the spot I head to. It's not an everyday thing, but when that specific craving hits, Lucky Foo delivers.

The vibe inside is something else. It's quiet - like, eerily quiet - and filled with what looked like college-age Asian students. No background music, no chitchat, just people focused on their bowls or phones. It's an experience, I'm telling you.

Don't expect any fancy menus - it's all up on the wall. And heads up, it's cash only. But honestly? The food is so good, you won't even care.

If you're after authentic Chinese cuisine without any of the fuss, Lucky Foo is your spot. It might not be for everyone, but for those who get it? It's a little slice of homestyle heaven right here in Kearny.“

“1st time here, the service was amazing, all employees were very kind, friendly & pay attention on their customers [Very Professional👍].

Foods were not bad. We like the Dumpling Soup / Xiao Long Bao, Crab Rangoon was pretty good, too.
We love the snow peas shoot steamed vegetables.
Peking duck was ok. The Mala Pot dish was disappointed, didn't taste Mala at all & and was tasteless. Veggie Lo Mien was not bad.
They gave us Free Ice Cream 🥰

We're still going back here for the good foods & will try a different dish every time we're coming 😎
*Very Recommended | this spot is a Must Try*“

“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.“

“Little disappointed at this place. Saw they had Crispy Beef with Fresh Honey Walnuts Beef with a bed of steamed broccoli in a sweet brown sauce topped with sugared walnuts. Not crispy as from can see in pic. Was this really beef also? Walnuts were plain as well.Steamed Spinach Dumplings were a bit dry . Hunan Dumplings Spinach and beef dumplings topped with spicy peanut sauce. Spicy. I got not spicy but were very good. Would I try again. Yes think I would.“

“So it was delivery order, very friendly lady took order over the phone, fast service reasonable price and I'm sure the food will be amazing. 30-45mi can't wait already , also seems she does take care of her drivers too, got 4 different things from there and all are great, thank you guys, merry “

“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!!!!“

“My family and I come here all the time for large family gatherings. The food is absolutely phenomenal here, especially the pecking duck buns and sweet and sour pork. We also love the soy sea bass, crispy chicken, ginger scallion lobster, pork chops and corn egg drop soup. One time we brought them king crab legs to cook and they cooked all of our king crab legs to perfection!! I don’t usually write google reviews but this place is so special to me and my family and adore this spot. The service is so fast and attentive and they are kind enough to provide free dessert whether that be fresh oranges, fresh fruit or even sometimes sweet red bean soup! Please consider coming here and supporting them! They’re so deserving, hardworking and kind!!“

“Came here for lunch, they have a lunch special Monday-Saturday 11am-3pm. I had the general Tso chicken. Overall my food was good. It was spicy, fresh, and flavorful. The restaurant is clean and tidy, although, they should make it look prettier with some Chinese decor. Food was served fast. No complaints or issues. I would recommend this restaurant.“

“Love this place, been there 3 times. The lady server is always very accommodating and sweet to my son and us. Food is always tasty and fresh. My son loves the food here. Is a small place but thats the charm.

Parking: There plenty of parking around“

“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.“

“We used them to cater a party for us this past weekend. Food came right when it was schdualed for delivery. All came hot and fresh. Could not have been happier with hoe it turned out. Will use again. Owner was very easy work with and made the process easy.“

“Way better than other places in Hillside. Great service never rude or nasty at all very pleasant!! Good service goes a long way!!“

“Eerie feeling today, new people running it I noticed, young man taking orders and working the register. Another man watching his every move. Nobody in the kitchen working. No beehive of activity and very quiet. Loved this place with happy previous owners. New owners???“

“Very good take-out Chinese food option for the area. Food is hot and cooked well, with a variety that is typical of Chinese take-out. We enjoyed their fried rice, orange chicken, and steamed chicken with broccoli. The fried dumplings were on the oily side, so we’ll probably get them steamed for our next order. Prices have remained reasonable over the years.“

“I really appreciate them having a gluten-free menu and lots of options, not just a salad. I tried their gluten free general tsos shrimp and shaved marinated brocoli shoots as an appetizer. It was generally good but shrimp was a bit overcooked. I will come back to taste their other dishes.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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!“

“Yes, this place brings back old, fond memories, and their food was always fresh, top-notch and delicious. Not too expensive either for the area! Much like a previous review before mine, there's a sign in the window to vacate the premises. Not looking good. It looks like they're closed permanently, and if you call, the phone just disconnects immediately without even ringing once. Definitely not a good sign. Sad to see them go. :(“

“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.“

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

“Great place to catch a quick bite of authentic Asian cuisine. Atmosphere is cozy and vibrant, and the food is amazing. Staff is passionate and friendly, demonstrating that they care about their customers. Great experience overall, will definitely be coming back and recommending this place to all my friends.“

“Food is amazing chicken is cooked just right it's never over nor under cooked , they very friendly, the fact they have a twist of Spanish food it a 10 for me !! They not greasy at all ... delivery rate a 10 aswell they come fast !! I've ordered over 5 times nd all 5 time's EXCELLENT SERVICE !! Thank you goodies staff you guys are appreciated!!“

“We ordered take-out, picked up and enjoyed our family Sunday dinner of two orders of steamed dumplings with their delicious sauce, shrimp egg foo-young with steam rice, house-special egg foo-young with steam rice, and a quart of their special young chow fried rice. We received 4 cans of complimentary sodas with extra hot sauce, soy sauce, and duck sauce.“

“Good service. Dim sum is average in NYC metro area, shock-free, nothing particularly exciting or unacceptable, variety of the options with fair price. Serving the dim sum on the carts is authentic. Service is 5 stars following the Cantonese tradition, such as replacing the dirty plates by a new one.“

“Best Chinese store in kenilworth“

“ok To some extend the lady at the front taking order she is always smiling and treating their customers like a 5 star restaurant on top of that the food its so fresh and delicious trust me when i said these food its so different than others... great job !!!!!!“

“I have been a customer for 9 years, moving from Kearny to Harrison, back to Kearny & I have never stopped ordering from them. They have a wonderful attitude, even during VERY busy times. Sweet lady who answers the phone is so pleasant. They always get my order right. The food tastes great, well cooked! There have been different people working here, but they must be family because they are all just great. Thank you guys for your service!“

“The girl was pretty polite on phone , she even made sure that I am in calling for the right place. Had ordered a small chicken soup and chicken fried rice . Food was really good. For sure I will recommend this place. One extra star for hospitality as well.“

“Went there for lunch and ordered a sesame chicken meal and paid about $10, but boy was it worth it! The food was good and the meal came with an egg roll plus pork fried rice and really filled me up. 10/10 would definitely eat here again.

Kid-friendliness: Has Lego decorations that kids might enjoy.“

“First it was a rainy day. They were busy. Young lady let's us know it was an 30 min wait. I was not rushed to order. She was very pleasant and patient. I ordered shrimp Egg Foo Young and beef Egg Foo young. The beef was so tender and the shrimp are nice big ones. And the brown gravy was delicious. If I could give 10 stats I would. Even with the wait time.“

“I’ve been coming here since I was a kid. And for over 15 years they have never done me dirty. Their wings are so good and such a good portion. Their vegetable low mein is so filling and their prices are so reasonable. They are always so kind too. I recommended this spot and everyone who tried it loves it“

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

“so impressed!! we ordered takeout for new years and delivery took just over 30 minutes (not bad at all for a holiday!) they gave us a pretty set of metal utensils for the holiday is well, which was a very nice touch. the lo mein and mini veggie spring rolls are delicious. excited to order from them again!“

“I was in the mood for Chinese food and the recent 5-star reviews made me want to give this place a try. Those reviews were not misleading.

After eating my pork-fried rice, I am glad that I chose to go there. I will probably make this place my preferred Chinese food restaurant.“

“The food at this Chinese restaurant is super good. I recently moved to Fairfield and needed to find a good spot for Chinese takeout out. So, I tried joy wok. I ordered sesame chicken combo and the Mongolian beef. They were both super good. I don’t normally like my sesame chicken a little spicy and they made it just right for me.
The customer service is also great. I had accidentally ordered white rice with the Mongolian beef and when I picked up my order they switched it to fried rice right away with no extra charge. Everyone there is super nice. Definitely recommend if you are in the area in search of a good Chinese spot.“

“Always fast and friendly, never any issues with my orders ?

Vegetarian options: Can just easily ask over the phone or in person. Not 100% sure.

Dietary restrictions: Just ask for modifications

Parking: Free Public parking for the Chinese and other neighboring stores“

““Absolutely fantastic takeout! The food was fresh, flavorful, and arrived piping hot. The portions were generous, and every dish—from the crispy spring rolls to the perfectly seasoned fried rice—was spot on. Fast service and great attention to detail in packaging. Highly recommend!”“

“My friend recommended this place to me, having visited it 6 times in half a year! It’s really hard to find such a great seafood restaurant in the middle of New Jersey, where dining options are quite limited. I was surprised to find a place like this here, as it feels like the quality belongs somewhere in Manhattan. If this restaurant were in the city, it could easily rival Michelin-starred restaurants!

No joke, we ordered some of the most common dishes, but the quality was outstanding. When my cousin and I arrived, we couldn’t believe the prices—only $16 for fresh seafood! I initially thought that price was just for a small portion, so we ended up ordering a lot of food, and the total was just $120!

Fish Dumplings 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Who would have thought you could find such authentic fish dumplings in the U.S.? The fish filling is bouncy and fresh. It’s delicious even without dipping it in vinegar.

Lamb Soup 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Honestly, this is the best lamb soup I’ve ever had in the U.S. It has a distinct lamb flavor but isn’t overwhelming. It’s just fresh and light, not too strong. The first time we had it, the two of us finished a whole big bowl along with a plate of spicy crayfish

Steamed Egg with Clams 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
No one can resist the soft, fresh taste of steamed egg. With the clams and a special soy sauce, the flavor is refreshing and pairs perfectly with golden pancakes. It’s a must-try!

Stir-fried Shrimp with Soy Sauce and Chili 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
This is my absolute favorite! It’s made with soy sauce, onions, and dried chili, and the aroma from the stir-fry is incredible. The highlight is the fresh taste of the shrimp. Unfortunately, this dish is out of season right now, so it’s not available.

Salted Egg Yolk Prawns 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
A must-order dish! The prawn meat is so fresh, tender, and juicy. The prawns are lightly fried, stuffed with salted egg yolk, and the outside is crispy. The aroma is irresistible!

Black Fish in Iron Pot / Fish with Golden Pancakes 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Fish is usually seasonal, but this place deep-fries the fish and then braises it in a rich sauce, which is just perfect. The golden pancakes are fried crispy on the outside but remain soft on the inside, perfect for soaking up the sauce.

Stir-fried Cabbage with Shrimp 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
This is a highly recommended dish by my cousin. Nearly every table orders this. The fresh shrimp and cabbage are stir-fried to perfection with a fragrant oil. I once packed this dish for a colleague from Qingdao, and she raved about it all the way home!

Honestly, I would take an Uber to come here 6 times in half a month—this place is truly a hidden gem!

Parking: They have free parking in front of

Kid-friendliness: The stuffs are really nice to kids , and kids enjoy the food !“

“Always nice on phone and in person.Delivery is excellent. I tell them no hurry as I am not in a rush, and don't want to stress them since they work so hard, but food is always on time. Portions are generous and delicious. They cater to my vegetarian meal requests by replacing meats with bean curd,etc.“

“This used to be a full service restaurant before Covid but now only takeout and delivery available. Has good extensive menu and good service. The food is hit or miss based on my experience.

Vegetarian options: There are quite a few vegetarian options available on the menu“

“I enjoyed the care they took in putting together a fantastic lunch. I'm also happy to see it's still one of the few Chinese restaurants that still serve food in bowls and plates. Also, the portions were a good size for the price I paid.“

“Ordered online for pick up. It said ready in 10 min which was not the case. No big deal as they were busy. The lady behind the window when we went to pickup was pleasant. The food was really good. We've order from at least 3 different Chinese restaurants and this so far is best. The price was very reasonable as well.“

“LUV, LUV, LUV THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE. AND MY FAV DISH FROM THEM IS HOUSE CHOW MAI FUN...UT HAS CHICKEN, PORK AND SHRIMP AND CARROTS IN NOODLES. VERRRY TASTY. I ALSO GET THEIR ROAST PORK AND BROCCOLI AND ASK THT THEY COOK MY BROCOLLI WELL DONE SO THEY'RE NOT HARD TO BITE INTO...THIS I ASK FOR GARLIC SAUCE....I HAVE ORDERED THIS SO OFTEN, THT WHN I CALL, THEY ALREADY KNOW MY ORDER, HOW I WANT IT, AND MY ADDRESS(AND THE FACT THT I DONT WANT SOY SAUCE, ONLY HOT SAUCE AND LOTZZZ OF DUCK SAUCE).
