50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Springfield

“If you’re looking for clean, fresh food that won’t drain your wallet, this spot is a great choice. The portions are generous, the prices are reasonable, and the staff are always welcoming. It can get pretty busy since it’s popular, but the wait is definitely worth it. Only thing missing would be fresh juices, adding those would take it to the next level.“

“A diamond in the rough! This has been my go-to takeout spot for about a year as of the writing of this review.

I’m very particular about my Chinese food and the flavors at this place are a cut above the rest despite looking like just another takeout place. I try new Chinese places pretty much whenever I’m in any town and this one stands out.

I’ve been to places which I like better in NYC, but so far in this part of Jersey this is easily one of the best I’ve found so far.

Workers who handle the phones are always very nice!“

“You can set your watch to this place making great Chinese food. Always hits at lunch time and the people that work there couldn’t be more friendly. My go to is chicken and broccoli. Highly recommend if you want a solid, no frills meal for a reasonable price.“

“It was a special day for my son and he loved it. We had a little of everything and he truly ❤️ 'ed it! From the Wonton Eggdrop soup to the Stir Fried dishes, everything cooked to perfection...and our main menu at the register...very patient to go over every one of his 20 questions in detail - it was bliss!“

“Food, service, and price were great! Located on Springfield Ave in Springfield, so view is of traffic, which is no big deal. Bathroom in basement, none on first floor. Steps up into front door entrance. I'm not sure if there is an alternate disabled entry.

Wheelchair accessibility: Steps up to entrance and steps downstairs to basement level bathroom. I'm not sure if there are wheelchair accessible entrances.“

“Hidden gem found.

Why has it been so hard to find good vegetable fried rice and more vegetarian options than soggy silky tofu in some bland sauce?

I digress. We tried this place for the first time with an online order. I got to the restaurant and was told just 15 minutes so I sat and waited while the nice couple that own the place finished cooking up our meal.

Sesame Tofu- despite taking this home as a carry out meal, the tofu still had some crispiness! I can only imagine how much better it may be when eaten immediately.

General Tso Tofu - similar sauce but spicier. So two dishes now on the “sweet” side.

Garlic Broccoli - Very fresh and flavorful. Oddly enough also a little on the sweet side.

Vegetable Fried Rice- please serve this to me by the bucketful! Finally a worthy fried rice, and more!

Of note: the owner was very kind when I asked if they could do a Kung Pao Tofu, even though it is not on the menu. She said she could and to just call or let her know! Def will be back for a savory tofu dish.

Generous portions and good prices. Plenty of space inside for large parties though it seemed Sat nights were mostly takeout.“

“I highly recommend Ugly Dumpling because of the delicious and affordable food options they have. Excellent customer service received from Gregory D!! He is absolutely an amazing server!! We will be coming back for more!! Awesome ambiance, beautiful decors, hip music and amazing servers. I also would like to give extra thanks to Miller... Overall, we are so happy with the whole experience!! 5 stars out of 5!!“

“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“

“Best dumplings and strawberry lemonade tea ever!!<3. I definitely recommend this place. 谢谢😌“

“All the people saying their meals taste bad, my brother in christ YOU made the bowl?? 😭😭
They got flavors by the end of the line & if it dont taste good to you 🤷 maybe you just dont like it thats fair. But like claiming its the restaurants fault is dumb, the visuals do need a face life & could be lil bit cleaner every now and then, but it only gets messy when its busy busy. And even then, the tables are not sticky, floors are not sticky, so idk where people say its filthy in here. Yall are missing out if you make a bad bowl, try something else!“

“My husband & I haven’t ordered Chinese food in a couple yrs bc it just kept getting worse, no matter how many places we were recommended. Even our OG tried & true (in our town) plummeted downhill, so we just gave up on it…. until tonight, when he said “I’m really craving Chinese!” I decided to google the best places in Union county & Trio came up first. After I peeped a ton of reviews, I IMMEDIATELY knew that’s what dinner was gonna be. Just picked it up maybe 45 mins ago & when I tell you, both my husband & I kept sayimg “this is amazing!”

Went with the black pepper chicken, bc how could I not! So many reviews mentioned it. The chicken is sweet, sticky, spicy in the best black pepper way, crispy yet lightly fried (almost like tempura) & that sauce mixed with the pork fried rice (with delicious chunks of fried onion & roast pork!)…. YUMMMMM!!!!! I’ve never had it before but it will be a staple going forward.

The pork fried dumplings were the best we’ve ever had. Filled with meat & fried to perfection. The shrimp rolls are packed with perfectly cooked veggies & beautiful, plump, pink chunks of shrimp. My husband said “that’s the best shrimp roll I’ve ever had. Usually they just taste like one note, everything in them blends together & it’s all just mush, but these are insane!” I got the large duck sauce bc no store bought ever comes close. The roast pork lomein hit HARD. The pork is succulent & moist, rather than dry as a bone and cut into teeny pieces like it is at every single Chinese restaurant we’ve ever ordered from. Absolutely delicious.

For my 83 yo FIL, we got his usual- a small order of bone in spareribs & I can hear him downstairs (as I type this review) telling his elderly dog “these are great, coco!” 😆

Last, but not least, I grabbed a homemade iced tea for my husband (thank you so much for throwin it “on the house”) & he sipped it down with a smile on his face.

I’m old school so I called our order in & she was the most kind, jovial, sweet as pie human. I’ve lived in NJ for 27 yrs now, and can truly say that this is, without a doubt, the best Chinese food we’ve ever had. Cannot wait to go back & try a bunch more dishes. But that black pepper chicken and these shrimp rolls will be a definite yes every single time.“

“Delicious menu, centrally located with friendly staff.“

“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 an excellent dinner at Paper Lantern of Montclair. The short ribs were excellent for an appetizer, delicious sauce. Wonton soup and dumplings were perfect and the sesame chicken and spicy Szechuan chicken were also wonderful. All of the staff were nice and the restaurant is cute inside.“

“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.“

“I live in Roselle Park. first time ordering from Lin's garden I had fried dumplings and a combination of beef and broccoli something simple but yeah very good I have to say I would definitely recommend this place nice flavoring and decent pricing.“

“I have been only going here fro a few years now because I do not live in Madison. However the food is awesome here and the front of house staff is very friendly. It is hard to find a really good Chinese food restaurant but I can honestly say this is my favorite one.“

“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.“

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

“First time here at the good “Panda China” restaurant. First impression? Fine addition to the community. The young lady that took my order was very pleasant. The chef seemed skilled and I must say the vegetables in both dishes (vegetable fried rice and lo mein) were fresh and full is flavor. The chicken wings were fried nicely and hard as we requested. This was overall a very good experience. We will be returning customer.“

“Here's a great review for you guys. I'm not one to EVER reheat Chinese food the next day...or ever. My husband ordered from here for him and the kids while I was at work this past weekend. Not only did I reheat it after work and it was delicious, but I ate it for lunch the next day, too, and still really good. I think this was the first time I reheated Chinese food in about twenty yrs lol. Will order again,thanks.“

“I’m not sure what it is but the couple of times we order from here they somehow mess the order. Just today I order something so simple yet they gave me a small instead of large. They didn’t over charge me but I order a large for a reason.“

“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“

“The China Garden in Port Reading is a little patch of heaven . The Best in the area by far ! The server's are very friendly !
I ordered the veggie spring roll and was not disappointed, they were made to order fried to perfection.
If you're in the area it's a must , go to the China Garden. You will not be disappointed.“

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

“food was Absolutely delicious and everyone was very friendly! looking forward to going back soon!“

The food was fresh and delicious. I’m a health nut and had such a craving for Chinese food over the last month. This hit the spot and it didn’t make me sick.had the chicken and broccoli in brown sauce and the chicken fried rice. Will definitely order again.“

“Awesome experience every time 👍🏻 Have been visiting this place again and again and never feel disappointed.“

“Hands down the best Chinese food in the area. However, I’m so upset they got rid of their sushi. It was the BEST sushi I’ve ever had. I can’t find anywhere in the area that comes close. It was so fresh. PLEASE bring it back 🙏🏻“

“I rarely eat Chinese food and I choose this restaurant when I have to eat. When I tasted the food, I was surprised by the taste, which gave me a new understanding of this cuisine. Quick pick up and very kind service. Pricing is very reasonable for the amount of food that you get.“

“My friend and I had a delicious lunch at Hui Tou Xiang! The leek pancakes and dumplings are all handmade in-house as well as the noodles. We’ll be going back.“

“It's great-tasting, well-made Chinese food. By well-made I mean you're NOT going to receive food that's drowned in grease, or all mushy like it's been sitting in a steam table for hours.They have a great selection of different styles. All the standard stuff, plus Szechuan and Cantonese specialties. The prices are reasonable. Staff is very nice. I love that when I order delivery, the driver is from the restaurant, not some internet service.I used to think I'd never find good Chinese food in this area, until I tried Hop Hing. Now I wouldn't go anywhere else.“

“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“

“Excellent spot for multiple different cuisines around Asia. I can't believe it took me so long to try this place, it is excellent! The sushi was super fresh and they had lots of menu items that were very unique like the dinosaur egg(fried lobster with layers of avocado on top). The dumplings were outstanding. Probably the best dumplings I've ever had! And the prices are extremely fair, we had so much food we barely finished. Will definitely be a spot I frequent.“

“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.“

“We’ve been ordering from the New Rice Bowl for 10 years and the food is always delicious! It’s always fresh and hot whether you have it delivered or pick it up. No matter how late or early I go the food is always made to order and consistent…never sitting around all day like in some places. I can’t say enough good things about New Rice Bowl!“

“very good taste. divarsity of plates“

“My wife and I ride our scooters there faithfully to get our usual shrimp and broccoli fried rice teriyaki chicken on the stick fried bananas and a order of chicken wings ?.The presentation ALWAYS ?? GRADE A!!WE LOVE ALL THE UNIQUE FLAVOR PROFILES GREAT TASTY FOOD VERY FRESH..ALSO THE PLACE IS CLEAN WE LOVE TO STAY AND EAT THERE!HEY IM BOUT TO GOT GET ME SOME NOW BEFORE THEY CLOSE IM OUT!!!!?“

“This restaurant most closely resembles the chinese food you get in nyc, it's good. The food is tastes great. They have a lunch special. It's affordable compared to other "Chinese" restaurants in town. They also deliver.

Parking: Parking along Bloomfield Ave is always tough. I wouldn't recommend double parking. There are paid lots in town.

Wheelchair accessibility: It's on the street leve“

“Excellent food, friendly and generous portions.“

“Dozo Sushi has the best service and incredibly fresh food! Not only do we celebrate all our family birthdays there, but we also find their takeout option very convenient. What impresses me the most is that Shirley remembers our allergies and always gives us the best recommendations. We can't recommend this place enough!“

“Casual take out Chinese with poor parking and a storefront that shows its time. Food preparation was quick. Food is fresh and delicious. My order is general tso chicken. As show in the attached photos, the chicken fills up the side of the container and is not layered over rice like some places do to cut costs. The portion is generous and I'm sure they just barely closed the lid. The chicken is cooked perfectly, lightly battered, fried to a crispy exterior and moist interior, I'm guessing dark meat which I prefer anyway. The sauce is tasty in this americanized version. The broccoli is fresh and healthy and steamed perfectly. The fried rice is excellent with pork, bean sprouts, green onions, and yellow onions. This rice was cooked expertly with wok hei, which is char, giving the rice a undertone of smoke. I'd pair this rice against that of upscale restaurants. Pork in the rice is abundant. Exerything in this order was fresh and cooked perfectly. My one negative is that general tso is supposed to have szechaun peppers and have heat, but this was sweet which is on par for most americanized Chinese eateries in the tri state area. As a visitor, I'm saddened I don't live closer to here as I would visit frequently. I do cook Chinese cuisine at home and can appreciate the technique and flavor in this order.\nOverall, excellent!\n\nEdit. This is now my third time coming here. The quality is consistently excellent. As I enjoy my lunch again I can taste that the oil use is fresh and clean.\nChinese has been my favorite cuisine since I was a child. For americanize szechuan, this is the BEST takeout I've had. I live in ny and come to this area twice a year for work. I look forward to coming here exclusively every trip. Last year I was disappointed to learn they were closed on the day I came (monday). If I lived local, I'd be a regular for sure!“

“My husband and I recently moved to NJ and were looking for good Chinese food. You can't go wrong with Ms. Lin! Our food was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. Prices are very reasonable and we brought our own wine. We will definitely be back!“

“This was my first time ordering from this restaurant because it's hard to find good Chinese food. I ordered an orange chicken combo very spicy. The flavor of the food is excellent, the pork fried rice was on point and freshly made, the orange chicken was a bit mushy more on the softer side. If they can fry the chicken a little bit crunchy it would be perfect. The eggroll I'm not a fan of but it was okay. I enjoyed the food, and that will be my new goto restaurant from now on.“

“If you are looking for delicious Chinese food, I recommend you try Wok & Roll.

The food is delicious, a wide variety of options and a very clean place.

Definitely give this place a try it might just be your new go-to place for Chinese food.“

““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!”“

“I’ve been ordering here for years and recommend to everyone in area. I’ve ordered multiple things off menu and they have all been delicious, Food is always good and consistent. Staff is friendly and appreciative of tip. Chicken wings, fried rice , boneless spare ribs are top notch! Highly recommend!“

“Rude owner and worse customer service! When we are with big group there is food quality change. Not giving onion or chutney. Poor service.“
