Szechuan Restaurants near South Plainfield, NJ

“This place has an old school Chinese restaurant feel to it that reminds me of when I lived in new York. The food is very good I ordered beef lo mein and general chicken. The small portion size of both were enough for two people and everything was very good.“

“This place is a hole in the wall, but it's the only place I know of that serves Seitan to accommodate vegetarians like me. The people are also very nice, and the food is quite tasty.

Vegetarian options: A good number of Satan and tofu dishes.“

“There are a very few Chinese restaurants that are authentic so this is definitely one! We ordered the spicy tofu flavor fish which was sooo good! It was just the right spicy and flavorful. With some rice on the side, it was just perfect! We also got some beef skewers and barbecue chicken wings to go and they were great too! But the fish wins any day! :)“

“The general Tsos was only ok, still better than many other places around town, but nothing to write home about. Their wanton soup on the other hand was fantastic and made me feel so much better (I'm sick) and their egg rolls weren't bad either. Overall the food was very good and I will be coming back.“

“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.“

“First of all this place is for Authentic Chinese food. If you just need some chicken broccoli go somewhere else. Now we have that clarified let me say that this place is the Best Chinese food in the Edison area.
If you are watching some Uncle Roger weejio and wonder what the “wok hey” tastes like, you should come here. Of course soup don’t contain wok hey so please order the right stuff. For those who can handle internal organs, the stir fried liver and kidney is spectacular. If you have a more conservative palette then go for the stir fried beef and peppers.
This brings me to the only downside of this amazing restaurant. The owner is the master of wok hey but not so much the line cooks. So if this is your first time there and you are looking for some wok hey just kindly as the front or call ahead and confirm if the owner is working in the kitchen today.
Of course the best restaurant can’t just be good at one thing. Their soups and cold dishes are amazing as well. And the best part is, you don’t need the owner to be there. For non stir fried dishes I recommend the stewed roasted duck. Rather pricey at around 40 bucks but it’s definitely worth it. It’s even better when you take it home and let all the ingredients soak in that amazing broth overnight.
P.s please don’t bother the owner for take out requests. No wok hey gonna last in a takeout container.“

“After a couple of friends recommended this restaurant, my husband and I decided to give it a try since we were in the mood for Chinese cuisine. Just so you know, this restaurant promotes itself as an Asian Fusion spot.

Upon entering, we were captivated by the beautiful mural and hanging lanterns that created an exotic ambiance. We were quickly seated and handed menus. Two ladies served us: one handed us the menu and later delivered our entrees, while the other took our orders. Since we came during lunchtime, we noticed there was a lunch menu. Here’s what we ordered:

I chose the Fermented Black Bean Fish dish, which was packed with flavor and aroma from the fermented black beans. It had a perfect balance of sweet and salty, with the onions and peppers helping to tone down the strong saltiness.

My husband ordered the Dry Pot with fish, which was cooked in a spicy sauce and included shiitake mushrooms, bamboo shoots, bell peppers, and a generous amount of dry chili peppers. The heat from the chilis nicely complemented the delicate fish. Both dishes featured fish that was lightly battered, quickly stir-fried, and remained tender without being overwhelmed by the other ingredients.

The waitress who handed us the menu and later delivered our dishes was incredibly pleasant, always smiling as she served us.“

“The Hunan Wok in Westfield is my go to Chinese takeout restaurant. I have ordered from here since the middle of 2023 and the food is wonderful every time. I am on a gluten-free diet and my husband is vegetarian; they have always been very accommodating. The delivery is quick and the ladies on the phone are always respectful. Highly reccomend.“

“our go-to place for dimsum here in Greenbrook …the other is Canton Palace in Somerville“

“Every Chinese spot are similar when it comes to food. However I love Happy China! I’ve been ordering here for the past decade and not once have I got my order wrong. Food is ALWAYS fresh! And the people in the front are always nice to me. Love love love it here“
