50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Spotswood

“Just ran into them tonight on my way back from work. I love the type of sauce they do for their beef n broccoli. The rice is a little minced but I'm not tack any points just cause of thats.. it's still very fresh. I'm a chicken noodle soup guy. Start with the broth because you tell right away how it's gonna go. Broth very tasty. The chicken was fine and honestly the noodles were nice and al dente. I understand it's not an Italian place but that's how I like my noodles. Good stuff guys and I'll be back“

“Pricey yet the food is definitely amazing with lots of love and definitely a lot of portions. Very unique flavors and don't hesitate to ask for taste liking on plates.

“Great food here! I had to drive 40 minutes to get here, but the food makes it worth it! The service is great, the fish is excellent, and the atmosphere is friendly. The restroom is clean, but the only problem is the opening hour is a bit late. Overall, great experience. Would definitely come back again. Possibly the best fish soup in NJ.“

“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!“

“amazing! great tasty stuff“

“Wu’s fish house is so good!!! The location of this place is so good! there’s so much to do around in this shopping center and stopping by to eat here is perfect. The portions are really big and the price is so good! They have SOOOO many menu items to choose from so it’s perfect for everyone. The food is great quality everything is so fresh and flavorful. HIGHLY RECOMMEND DEF COME“

“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!“

“Delicious food, and perfect for a meal any time of day or a late night bite. The malatang ain’t no joke and the fish was so tender! Particularly enjoyed the spicy beef tendon and tripe appetizer as well. Fast service, and owner is so kind.“

“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've been to this location quite a few times since it opened. The service has been good each time. The temperature of the food is always on point. The serving size is just right. Sometimes there is too much salt. The Mongolian beef particularly has been salty. The food has changed since 2020. Some things taste different, such as the crab wonton. Still good, but different and the sauce for dipping is not the same as it was. They have great cocktails. They even make seasonal ones. They have a great selection. Its really dark inside and while I dont mind it , sometimes I wish it was just a little less dark. Music isn't overwhelming. The noise level is not bad. I had the Orange Chicken spicy and it was delicious. Not too spicy, but the temperature was definitely hot. The pork dumplings were good as well, but again the sauce has changed for this one too. Bathrooms were clean. Parking can be challenging (it's at a mall so not all the time) small area for waiting to be seated.“

“Have been coming here for the last 3 years. Even after ownership change, food quality and service is always excellent and attentive. The ambiance is beautiful and always clean. Can't get this type of environment or quality compared to Edison. Never crowded and can always get food quickly!“

“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“

“Ordered three times so far. Been extremely satisfied with Chinese food so far. Trying Thai dishes tomorrow. Haven’t tried sushi yet but will in the near future. I didn’t rate “atmosphere” because it’s really a take out place, not too much space to eat inside. If you’re curious, I’d definitely try it.“

“Great food. The sampler dumplings are awesome.“

“Great casual spot with a clean and cozy vibe. The food was flavorful and comforting, and the ingredients tasted fresh. Service was friendly and efficient. Definitely a solid place to grab a warm, satisfying meal. I’ll be back to try more.“

“Fantastic food and a great atmosphere!“

“This is the only place I feel safe ordering in from as someone with food allergies. I have a dairy and gluten allergy and they are so accommodating with the dishes. You get big portions for a good price and the food is always so fresh. I also have a super stomach with some problems so I always feel icky eating out and since the food is cooked in high quality oil I never feel icky after eating here which is SO rare for me. The owner is incredibly kind and told me how she also has food allergies and is happy to make modifications and help. It’s so rare that restaurants welcome modifications and she always does so for me. I’ve never gotten sick here and it’s the one restaurant I feel comfortable ordering in from and look forward to doing so every week. The entire staff is helpful and are always kind and respectful even when the phone is ringing like crazy and there’s a line for pick up. They never rush you and always make you feel welcome. A local gem- thank you to the incredibly owner for giving us allergy people a safe place with delicious food and for accommodating me with a smile. I appreciate you so much. Please support this local small business“

“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!“

“Love their Bento boxes!!!“

“Wow wow wow this place is so Chinese

Upon walking in the laoban talked to us for like 10 mins about how the pork was specialized from a facility in Maryland to get the same taste as Chinese pork by bloodletting

Anyways the sesame noodles were really great and the meat was good wonderfully flavored

The weird soup with pork balls was great too and kinda tasted like Chinese pork but maybe it was placebo

Bao buns might have been frozen but good

Fish balls we’re meh but maybe it’s just because I don’t like yuwan that much

But most of all the Chinese laoban felt like a very homely grandpa and even gave us boiled water lol

Overall very nice and decently priced very happy

4.5/5“

“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.“

“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!“

“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!“

“Whenever I have a problem with bowel movements, I will come here to have a meal. It is more useful than Kaisellu for painless bowel movements. I come here every time when I have a problem with bowel movements. It is a very good place for bowel movements. Aila’s friends came to see me.“

“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!!“

“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.“

“We got the crab roe over rice and the green peppers with tofu. The crab roe over rice was really good, but pretty pricey. Next time, I'll probably just get the crab roe with tofu. The peppers were surprisingly good as well. Little bit of a kick and not too salty. The sides were REALLY good (pickled radish + wood ear)“

“Mongolian Beef was much closer to Mongolian Onion, not much beef at all. Crab Rangoon didn’t have much filling in them and the dough wasn’t great. Other things we ordered were good though (Fried Rice, Dumplings, General Tso’s Chicken, Wonton Soup). Would return but wouldn’t re-order a couple of the plates we got.“

“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“

“Good food and convenient location near Middlesex campus. Great when on break between classes or heading home. Food is cheap and still very delicious not overly salty or greasy. I had the sweet and sour chicken it was well-battered and served quickly“

“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)“

“A small takeout Chinese eatery with a fairly standard menu selection bearing high average prices. Hong Kong Express serves americanized Chinese fare. Set in a small strip mall, there seems to be adequate parking. Upon entering, the first impression is clean. Featuring newer furnishings, decor and construction. As a child took my order and payment, this is clearly a family business.
So I've only had one dish at this place. I can say for freshness of ingredients, it's excellent. For amount of meat added, average. Unfortunately my dish was extremely bland. I had to add 7 packets of various sauce and that was still not enough. As I make this dish at home, the main sauce is soy. I wish I had grabbed more.
Speaking of sauce, no sauce, forks, chopsticks or napkins were added or offered. I'm glad I checked and added on my own.
This business succeeds in 2 major ways most other Chinese places don't (freshness and cleanliness). I hope I just caught an off dish. I'd return, but until I had a better dish, I wouldn't recommend.“

“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!“

“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.“

“Even though I moved about 15 minutes away, I still drive to Old Bridge to pick up food from Chung Sing. Best Chinese food - have been going since the 80's!“

“Surprising we hadn’t tried this place all these years living here as it was a lovely lunch we recently had.

Famous Freddy served us and treated us like long lost friends even though it was our first time. Table service is nice with tablecloths and a nice decor. Our special requests were accommodated and Freddy regaled us with lively conversation.

We enjoyed the cold sesame noodles, the sauce a little on the loose side for my taste but it was fine otherwise. Vegetable Lo Mein was as expected and the General Tso’s tofu was also very good. I prefer a different style for the sauce(darker/spicier) and tofu(firm ripped pieces vs soft cubes) but I’ve had this style before as well and it’s fine.

Addl hot sauce was provided and overall we enjoyed the meal.“

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

“This is my favorite American-Chinese takeout spot in NJ! The owners are very nice, the food comes out quick, and the quality is good. I've tried other Chinese takeout places in the area, and China Wok is the only one that I've been satisfied with. I love their Crab Rangoon and like to get Beef Chow Fun. All their dishes taste good for the price. It's a nice local spot to order from when you're looking for American-Chinese takeout!“

“The only negative I have (and it’s a big one and has happened 4-5 times now), I order no onion in my pepper steak and they add a $2 extra meat fee. I didn’t ask for extra meat to compensate for lack of veggies , and I don’t like it added without it being acknowledged or even approved/denied.. really not okay with that decision being made without my knowledge of it and will say something next time..

However when it comes to the food? Do it. Our usual orders are a some kind of mix of chicken&broccoli, pepper steak, boneless ribs, sesame chicken, fried wontons… everything has been great every time. One of the “better “ meats when it comes to both the chicken and the beef.. delivery is uncomfortably fast at times lol. Prices are average to anywhere else around here but the portions are great. Would definitely reccomend.“

“Always great food, super fast delivery & super fast when picking up orders too! Food taste & quality is excellent! Their prices are very good and you get a lot of food for the cost. We've been customers for about 7 years, love this place!“

“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.“

“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“

“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!“
