20 Best Chinese Restaurants near Cross River

“Tzen is a true hidden gem that delivers an exceptional dining experience once you look past the initial price tag. I avoided visiting because the sales tax is higher at this location, but the build quality of the food and the freshness of the ingredients make up for the added expense. This is a joy lifter of a restaurant where the culinary performance clearly lives up to its claims of being a high-end establishment.
During my visit, I ordered the Mapo tofu as a vegan option, which served as a perfect test for the quality of the vegetables used in the kitchen. The produce was remarkably fresh and well-prepared, showcasing a level of detail often missing from standard fare. While the Szechuan seasoning was not quite as numbing as I desired, this profile is somewhat expected for this region and did not detract from the overall high-quality experience. The flavors were faithful to authentic techniques while remaining accessible, proving that the kitchen team is extremely knowledgeable.
Bottom Line: Tzen offers a sophisticated and flavorful menu that justifies the premium cost through sheer quality. If you are looking for an elevated, authentic vegan meal with fresh, premium ingredients, this is an excellent choice; however, if you are strictly budget-conscious or seeking the intense, numbing heat found in traditional Szechuan provinces, you may find the seasoning and price point a bit deficient for your specific needs. I highly recommend giving this hidden gem a try.“

“Came here about 2 weeks ago for a date night dinner with my husband. Food was exceptional for this type of cuisine in Westchester County. We had the sampler appetizer which consisted of soup dumplings and shumai, etc which were so tasty and we each got a ramen bowl which were both excellent. We definitely want to go back to try some of their other dishes. It definitely helped having a reservation as the dining room itself is rather small. Definitely recommend due to the tasty food and friendly, courteous wait staff. Thank you!“

“Ordered togo, but ate while waiting for my ride. The food was fresh and delicious. Lots of flavor and not too greasy. Got chicken and brocolli in brown sauce, and it was generously coated.

The people were very nice and happy to make accommodations. The place is has tables to sit and eat. Their little decorations are cute.

From a supporter of small business, please give them a try :)

Looked into why only 3 stars, and ALL the bad reviews are from years ago.“

“This is by far the best Chinese takeout you will find in probably the whole New York. That includes the city. I've had so much Chinese food across NYC and a lot of them sadly fell off. Peking Garden in Brewster has held their ground for many years. The consistency of their food, and the pride they take in ownership is why they are #1. They offer menu items that you cant get anywhere else in the whole county, and the flavor is always the best. They serve the freshest vegetables and use the best ingredients to make their dishes really stand out. When I get Peking Garden I have to literally force myself to stop because it's so good that even when I'm full I just want another bite, and another bite lol.“

“Tengda Asian Bistro offers a wonderful selection of delicious lunch and dinner choices! The staff provides excellent and friendly service! Enjoy the best dining experience!“

“This place is both amazing and delicious! We had a variety of dishes liek Szechuan dumplings, curry noodles, shrimp tempura, soup, crunchy spicy sushi, etc. ALL WERE AMAZING!! Service was really good and very homey atmosphere with high quality ingredients and served with a smile. Loved it!! 5 STARS!!“

“Have not been here or ordered a LONG time but got take out delivered Saturday. Very happy with 90% of my order. Hot & Sour soup plus Genreal TSO chicken was excellent. Spring rolls & LoMein were great too. Did not care for the Crab ragoon - made in a different way. All arrived quick & hot. I will order again.“

“Always top notch. Alex is awesome, will make your dish to your liking, always fresh. Best around“

“I tried this spot because of the lack of pork dish options elsewhere In the area. I genuinely don’t understand some of these reviews, so far as of ordering 5 times now everything has been above and beyond..my go to is the sechuzan style roast pork. Tried the fried wontons in garlic sauce today, amazing. Great local option, they never miss an item or an instruction. This has become my go to spot in town.“

“I frequent this unique place once a month since I like the good air that is characterizes this place. The crew is exceptionally cordial and experienced. The service is exceptionally fast. Most important, the food you eat is great. I visited more than once and I was always satisfied. The cost is honest. I highly recommend this place to all my friends.“

“Wonderful gourmet Chinese take-out in Mahopac and worth our 30 minute ride. Tasty not oily or over salted. The boneless spare ribs, Wonton Soup were splendid! Then Moo Shoo Pork and Chicken with Broccoli. Yummy. A BIg step up from the usual Chinese take-out out restaurant. And large portions as well!“

“Surprisingly good considering the mixed reviews. We've had an excellent lunch special, dinner and take out. Going back tonight - too hot to cook. Reminds me of NYC Szechuan in the 70's, when the food had unique flavor and each dish was different.“

“I visited this location for the first time to try out their food. I ordered a small vegetable fried rice and it was quite tasty. The gentleman who prepared the food and took my payment was very nice and appreciative of my business. I will definitely be back to try some other dishes.“

“Great food and the owners and staff are so nice . A must try xxx“

“I LOVE the fact that this is in Katonah! People should rally around this place & support these folks. The food is good & they work hard. The food is always exactly what I want when I want to eat Chinese food. It can be warm in there, but it's summer.
I personally want to thank the folks who work there. Thank you for helping me feed my family delicious food. I'll be back soon!“

“Nice experience friendly staff“

“Very accommodating to my service dog. Sometimes places like this don’t understand the function of a service animal in a persons life. We will definitely be back! So appreciative of them being welcoming.“

“This place is the best!! The chicken was very crispy and the sauce was tasty. You could easily tell that the sushi was fresh. I requested the drunken noodles to be extra spicy and they were the perfect amount of spice. I highly recommend Asia Hamachi!“

“I've been doing take out dinner combo at 6:45 pm. Ordering online 30 minutes before pickup. Always ready, always hot. Need to get the utensils and napkins there - they don't automatically put them in the bag (which is good. You just have to know).“
