50 Best Chinese Restaurants near South Brunswick

“I get it 3-4 times a week. The staff is incredibly helpful and friendly. The dishes are delicious and wide range of variety to choose from and very inexpensive and high value food.

They always make me feel at home and prepare food the way you like it.

Very highly recommended.“

“Rich and flavorful broth! Great sides!

Wow! Firstly, very lovely first impression walking in and being seated. I am a big fan of the robin-egg colored tableware and the Miniso Dundun chicken timers lol. The place felt very clean and fresh, upon arriving.

Food:
The broth was extremely rich and flavorful! Genuinely tasted like it was prepared for a long time (10 hours) just like they advertise! It tasted very savory and it pairs well with the chicken and the other sides! The fish maw white fungus, chinese yam, pumpkin, and hand pulled noodles were all very fresh and high quality. I personally loved how chewy the noodles were after cooking it!

Our order was 2 servings it felt like a reasonable price. Definitely satisfied with the portion size given that we felt pretty full afterwards.

Service felt very welcoming and friendly.

I would totally recommend giving this place a try!“

“Randomly found this place after food shopping one night and its officially our fav spot ! They open late til 1230am ! Jay and his staff members are very welcoming and friendly. Told us their special dishes and what to come back to try next time! We got their green peppercorn broth with snakehead fish recommended by Jay and boy it hit the spot! U can add on toppings and it comes with rice! We enjoyed it so much we are already planning our next late night visit and plan to take the fam here!“

“I took my fiance here this past weekend and we had a great time. We got to pick which vegetables, meats, tofu we liked, which were all fresh. And then we pick the broth and pay. The Mala Tang in the end was delicious. The broth was very flavorful and aromatic and the meats, vegetables and tofu tasted superb!“

“On January 11th 2023, incredible Dustin, Once again prepared A sumptuous Gluten-free feast for me and a friend!

“We tried the crab buns and shrimp dumplings at Wu’s Shanghai Dumpling, and they were absolutely delicious! The crab buns were perfectly fluffy on the outside with a rich, savory filling that really hit the spot. The shrimp dumplings were fresh, juicy, and beautifully wrapped—each bite was full of flavor. The service was friendly, and the place had a cozy, welcoming vibe. Highly recommend for anyone craving authentic Shanghai-style dumplings!“

“I ordered the Sweet and Sour Squirrel Bass and Shanghai Smoked Fish. The smoked fish tasted so authentic — just like what I had in Suzhou! Perfectly marinated, flavorful, and not greasy at all. The squirrel bass was crispy on the outside, tender inside, and cooked to perfection. The fish is freshly prepared — they literally have a tank right by the entrance, so you know it’s super fresh!“

“This was amazing food! The spice level was just right!! We came here once and just had to come back because of how amazing it was! Just amazing. The taste of pickled claws and smashed cucumber is unforgettable ,Good proportions. Great food.“

“Classic takeout spot. Been going here since 2022 but regularly since 2023. The new owners take pride in their work and quality of food. They look out for the community. Great family owned business that everyone should try if they get a chance“

“100% would recommend this place, beautifully decorated interior, wonderful service, delicious & guilt free food. Food is authentic. On certain days they have deals (i.e. Buy 1 get 1 for $1 on select beef options). They also have solo soup options if you dont want to share a family style broth pot. Overall a great experience.“

“Great food. The sampler dumplings are awesome.“

“Absolutely delicious! I tried their freshly baked crab meat mooncake and the crab roe rice — both were incredible! The mooncake was warm, flaky, and filled with real crab meat, and the crab roe rice was super flavorful and fragrant. You can really taste the freshness in every bite. Highly recommend this place if you love authentic crab dishes!“

“To be fair, I fully understand the poor reviews on this store. You have to be very selective in ordering the right dishes to get a good experience. In general, most northwest China cuisine dishes from this restaurant are authentic and highly recommended (e.g., green pepper and beef fried noodle; crispy lamb chop; lamb scorpion pot; flat bread in lamb soup). We have ordered these many times by now.

However, I would avoid ordering non-Northwest-China dishes (e.g., tomato noodle soup, pork soup dumplings) as they are very mediocre and not worth the money.

Furthermore, ordering delivery from this restaurant is quite a scam. On most delivery apps (Ubereats, Doordash, etc.), the price of each menu item can be $5-10 higher than the in-store prices (even for pickup!).“

“Such a nice evening!! The food was delicious and our server (so sorry I don’t know your name!! The Hungarian girl from Felsoörs 🇭🇺🇺🇸) was exceptional, so knowledgeable of the menu, sociable, prompt and helpful! We had the fried eggplants & chicken popcorn as appetizers, then various types of noodle dishes, sesame chicken and seafood tofu. Super yummy, and cozy atmosphere. Will go back when in Princeton!“

“Had an amazing meal here! The dishes were flavorful and authentic — especially peppercorn beef cubes, which were perfectly seasoned. The portions were generous, the service was friendly, and the overall dining experience was really enjoyable. Definitely a spot I’ll come back to!“

“We love this restaurant! My husband and I came here multiple times in one week after we decided to try it. The food is very fresh, and the teas are tasty. The dessert is also very good! We recommend the tomato sauce with egg and beef dish and the baked fried rice with curry sauce. I really like the pineapple bun and the Hong Kong milk tea, and my husband likes the milky french toast.“

“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 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!“

“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.“

“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 Chinese food spot, nothing fancy just great food“

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

“My favorite restaurant in Edison and a restaurant that must be reported almost every week.
Recommended dishes:
Free-range chicken (a classic of Hunan cuisine, the chicken is delicious when killed alive), sizzling squid (not fishy at all, with the aroma of barbecue), dry-pot beef brisket (not too bad, not chewy, just the right texture), smoked bamboo shoots and beef rice noodles (freshly fried toppings, full of pot flavor, personally ranked first in the Edison rice noodle category)“

“China Garden is definitely one of the best spots around if you’re looking for affordable and delicious Chinese takeout. The food is consistently good — flavorful, fresh, and satisfying. When you pick up your order directly, the prices are very reasonable. I spent about $18 for two full meals, which is a great deal considering the portion sizes.

Just a heads up: if you order through Uber Eats or other delivery apps, the total can get pretty pricey with fees and markups. So if you want to keep it affordable, picking up is definitely the way to go.

Overall, a great choice for a tasty, budget-friendly meal when you’re craving Chinese!“

“The Chinese restaurant we used for years recently changed owners, and was not to our liking anymore. This was our first time ordering here and we were very pleased. I placed an order online and was it was delivered 20 minutes early. We ordered the kung pao chicken (extra spicy) combo, sesames chicken combo and wonton soup. All were tasty and fresh. We found our new Chinese restaurant. Can't wait to try some of the other dishes.“

“Outstanding flavors and service! The food here is some of the most authentic and well-seasoned Chinese-Venezuelan cuisine I've ever had. A huge shout-out to Gloria for her amazing service! Loved learning about their deep roots, from the original 1971 restaurant in Venezuela to this NJ location. A must-try!“

“what an amazing Christmas Dinner, will definitely be back to try more of the menu“

“This review is long overdue. I actually live in VA. However, every time I come up to Jersey to visit family I always order from China Wok. My family never ordered from here until I tried it out. They enjoy the food as well. We've tried different dishes and have yet to be disappointed. My orders are always delivery. I have yet to visit the restaurant in person. I highly recommend China Wok.“

“Super fresh and delicious food, all tastes very authentic.

Our family went there for dinner and ended up having a great time. We highly recommend Traditional sweet sour fried pork, classic fried mushroom, fried lamb skewer, and the noodle soup.

My kids love the sausage fried rice so much that they were fighting for it. LOL.

We came in late but the waitress was so friendly and nice to us. We really appreciate the hospitality they offered and will certainly come back next time when we are close by.

Parking: Plenty free parking

Kid-friendliness: High chair available, very friendly service to kids“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Noodles Time is amazing! I absolutely loved the pig intestines—they were cooked to perfection and packed with flavor. But the real highlight was the duck noodle soup—it was to die for! The broth was rich and aromatic, and the duck was incredibly tender. The staff is super friendly. I’ll definitely be coming back for more!“

“We ordered from East Wok twice so far and each time the food has been excellent. I ordered General Tso Chicken, which was made with white meat, and it tasted great. Had a little kick to it as well, which was a pleasant surprise. Definitely recommend this establishment. Keep up the good work!“

“This was my first time ordering Chinese food in hillsborough. The food was very good ; I placed my online order and my food was ready when I arrived. I rated the atmosphere 3 stars because I did not eat inside. Therefore, I can not give the restaurant so a review based on the atmosphere. I would definitely order take out again; good food, timely service and reasonable price.“

“I sent you message please check your inbox“

“Lovely restaurant. My wife was working in the area and decided to pick up some take out for dinner; 2nd best decision she made in her life, next to marrying me ?. Everything tasted so fresh!!! They did not half a** anything. Their eggrolls are a must try, extremely fresh!We are originally from Brooklyn, NY, so we had our share of Chinese takeout… so if we are traveling 30 mins both ways for Chinese takeout, that should say a lot. This place does not miss ?? Hits the spot every time.“

“I think I found my favorite Asian seafood spot in the area. I am absolutely in love with their crab roe specialty ! You have the choice of with white rice or noodles. I chose rice with the crab roe and later one decided to get an order to go with the noodles. The crab roe is to die for ! So much flavorful and deliciousness. Another order is the steamed Halibut which was also wonderful to the taste buds. The service from the kind lady was wonderful and fast paced. We didn’t have to wait long for the orders to come. The restaurant is located on the second floor of the plaza and the first door. The parking is hard around that area but I went on thanksgiving day so it wasn’t so busy. My favorite part is the restaurant is dog friendly !!!! I cannot wait to try other items on the menu and bring my pup. This place is a must try with so much variety off their menu.“

“Been ordering from here for many many years since I was young. And I have tried many other places but nothing can bet china star. The pricing is fair and the potions are great. Highly recommend coming here. Their chicken broccoli with white rice is the best“

“Food was delicious..nice size lunch portion and very reasonable pricing.“

“Went in and was kind of dead. But when the food started to arrive it was worth the wait. We asked to make a dish without an ingredient and they were happy to accommodate! Was super tasty, curry beef, beef and enoki, tofu and cabbage favorite“

“The owner of this place is the best! I have a food allergy and she makes my food without it every time, perfectly delicious! This is my go to chinese spot. Do yourself a favor and get the hot and sour soup, I judge chinese food restaurants by it, and this is one of the best around“

“China Chen is the best Chinese take-out restaurant in this area. I try to come here at least once or twice a month. It is in a little food court inside the Forrestal Village (across from the now-closed down Salt Creek Grille). I like their beef and broccoli, fried rice, bourbon chicken and pork egg rolls the best. The service is always quick and the prices are very good. There is seating inside the food court and outside as well. Everything is made to order (the food is not sitting out) and is fresh and hot. The service is friendly and quick. There's a PF Chang's further down which I do not recommend (their prices are too high and their quality is very poor). Wegmans used to have excellent Chinese food, but not for the last 10 years or so. This is truly the best place in the area. Also, China Chen takes credit cards and there is no service charge to use your card and they do not have a tip jar out (I know a lot of people hate that).“

“This is our go to place for Chinese and Seafood Boil. We love the friendly service and they accommodate all our special requests. I love that we can have seafood boil and Chinese food all at once. Everyone wins. We have been coming here for almost 20 years and loved every meal. Eat local and support local business!“

“fresh great food light flavorful“

“Amazing food and exceptional service. I love the crab rangoon, sweet& sour soup, and general tso chicken. Everything was so fresh. The lunch special was quick and simple- I love how reliable it is to order from Golden East Garden. Would recommend“

“I did an order delivery tonight and it's probably enough for three or four nights. I ordered directly from the store..The delivery came within 30 minutes and the lady I spoke to to make the order was very nice before that. I got some steamed chicken dishes with sauce on the side. I asked for brown rice instead of white rice and it was only a dollar per serving. I also got pork with snow peas and it came perfectly beautifully steamed even though i didn't specify that but it's exactly how I like it. Also lo mein as well. All of this with delivery fee and tip totalled about 60 or $65. And the food tastes just great. I am so happy I ordered from them and this is the second time I did so and had forgotten about them for a while. I rate this as the best Chinese delivery food in the area.

Dietary restrictions: They have great steamed dishes with sauce on the side and no added salt or oil.“

“Great food and a pleasant staff. Best in the area.“

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

“One of the best halal food restaurant in nyc and NJ area. We go there very often and they have not disappointed us even once. The food is delicious and appetizing. Great customer service, Food arrives on the table very quick. I would definitely recommend.“

“"我喜欢这个中国饭关""I love this Chinese restaurant" I said just that in Mandarin Chinese!(If I misspelled any character, feel free to correct me if you know Mandarin Chinese) The kind woman at the register lets me say phrases in Mandarin to her. Thanks!“
