50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Monsey

“Kapao by Wok Tov is the kind of place you go when you’re in the mood for something a little more exciting than your regular rotation — and you want it fast before you start second-guessing your order.

First thing, the flavors come in strong. Not shy, not subtle — this is not a “maybe there’s seasoning” situation. You take a bite and right away it’s like, “Okay, we’re awake now.” The sauces actually taste like something, which already puts it ahead of half the places out there.

The menu has that classic “everything sounds good” problem. You stand there debating like it’s a real sugya — noodles, rice, beef, chicken — and by the time you decide, you’re already thinking about what you’re ordering next time.

Portions are solid too. You’re not leaving hungry unless you made some questionable life decisions before you got there. Most people end up with enough for round two later, whether they planned it or not.

Now, a small practical tip: just double-check your order before you leave. Not a whole crisis, just part of the hishtadlus — takes two seconds and saves you from giving a whole shiur in the car about why your lo mein turned into something else.

The vibe is more grab-and-go than sit-and-linger, but it works. Efficient, quick, and to the point — exactly what you want when you’re hungry and not looking to make a whole event out of dinner.

Bottom line:
Flavor-packed, satisfying, and a solid go-to when you need something different and filling. Come hungry, order wisely (or not), and don’t be surprised if you’re already planning your next visit halfway through the first bite.“

“Food was delicious. Customer service very polite and all wore masks and complied to covid 19 rules. am stuffed😊“

“Hands down the best kosher Chinese I’ve ever had. Every dish was packed with flavor, perfectly executed, and seriously addictive. If you like real spice and bold Asian flavors—not toned down—this is absolutely your spot. 🌶️🔥
Can’t wait to go back.“

“This restaurant has consistently gotten better. Everything I've tried has been great. Tonight I had the best barbecue spare ribs I've had in a long time.“

“Excellent food and service we love this restaurant“

“Great Food at fair prices ! kids and I love this place!!“

“Wonderful food. Soup is amazing. Service is great and the menu is huge“

“I always order from your establishment. The food is delicious. However, tonight I ordered through beyond menu and placed and order to be delivered at 7pm. I called the restaurant around 730pm.. The woman that was there answered the phone and apologized saying” She never saw the order and the food will be made right away. I wound up showing up to pick up the food. The woman at the front counter was the same woman that answered the phone. She was beyond disgusting and rude to another customer. Telling this customer she didn’t pay and her card had to be charged. Then she starts talking to me and I showed her that I paid. She told me “I wasn’t talking to you.” I responded with “There is no reason for you to be nasty!” She responded with “ We are very busy.” Then a tall man proceeded to hand me the food I ordered. She said something me and once again I turned around and responded “Learn to talk to people, there is no reason for you to be nasty!” I walked out with the food.I do not care if there is a line out the door or you are busy. There is no reason for someone to disgustingly nasty and rude!“

“Just picked up some Chicken in Mango sauce! So delicious! That little bit of heat with that sweet mango sauce 😀. The vegetables were crisp and fresh. Highly recommend! Husband also enjoyed his Drunken noodle!“

“Great food. No eat-in option, take out only. Order is always accurate and they load up the containers! Large size lo mien will feed the normal hungry eater for at least 2 days!! Great polite service and very convenient location, right off of Maple Ave!“

“Their food is consistently great. We literally won't order from anywhere else. The staff is helpful and efficient. Highly recommend. There's no rating for atmosphere, because it's a take out place.“

“Typical family run Chinese takeout. I am trying different Chinese takeout out places in this area and try to support local businesses when I can.

Aesthetically, there is a tiny front area to pick up and order food from. There was a single folding table that someone was eating at. The tiny strip parking lot was crowded with cars from other stores and the spaces were cramped.

The picture-overhead menu was typical, with generic pictures of the plates - seemed dated but this is typical.

The counter person took my order and was friendly.

I ordered a half dozen dishes totaling over $40 as take out for 2 people. Food arrived quickly with barely a 10 minute wait.

Shrimp Chow Fun: (not bad)
most take out restaurants have a ‘browner’ sauce and usually heavier oil. This was a little bland by comparison but not bad. Vegetables were crisp and fresh, the rice noodles were not bloated and a little soy sauce to season to taste - as you like it is all that is required. Shrimp
Content was adequate.

Boneless Ribs: (solid!)
A barometer for me, Some have a runny bbq sauce while others might make it too dry. I actually would rate this amongst the best as the sauce was not too heavy, and not runny. It was flavorful and the pork had a bit of a sear but not dry. I would recommend this over white rice.

Wonton Soup:(recommended)
The wontons were not mushy or bloated. The broth was savory and tasty. The scallions were a delicious touch. One of the better offerings in the area.

Chicken with garlic sauce:(not bad)
Vegetables were all crispy and fresh. The chicken was moist. The sauce was a little on the light side- could have had a little more bite for my taste but overall, a good dish.

Hunan pork: (not bad)
Similar overall review as with the Chicken with garlic sauce. Fresh and tasty, perhaps a little on the bland side but not bad overall.

I would order from here again.“

“Since discovering Wonder, I have never had a fair or bad food experience. My orders have been delicious and delivery was always on time or early. I will eventually try each menu item but until then I recommend the Sushi plates and Big Belly chicken menus. The Pizza was also 100 percent.“

“Awesome food and service. Nice atmosphere. nice bar upon entry“

“Was nearby and needed lunch and was in the mood for Chinese and saw the reviews on this place and decided to give it a try. Asked for special order of Beef and Broccoli with garlic sauce, no problem attitude! Food was great and ready in no time! Would come back for sure.“

“Service is a little slow bc it is a family own place but totally worth the wait. The Ramen was fantastic and so was the sushi. Wish I had taken pictures but I didn’t think it would be this good.

A must stop in the area, we just happened to be driving by after work“

“good selection of non raw sushi. nice green tea“

“If you are looking for a fancy dining experience, this is not the place, but if you want exceptional Chinese food, you've hit the jackpot. Think of Chinatown, not Ridgewood. Prepared from scratch, not quick, but with a touch of love. This tiny establishment has the standard fare and some twists on the originals that will make your taste buds dance. Pork dumplings become Mom's Dumplings with the insertion of a giant shrimp and an amazing homemade dipping sauce. Mangos are often added to many dishes for a change of flavor. Not spicy enough, ask Sherry to give it a boost, or the opposite, tamp it down a bit. Have you ever had lamb Chinese style? or one of many other specialties. The place has gotten a bad wrap from impatient patrons. Good food takes time to prepare, and fresh ingredients are not cheap. When we have company from out of the area, this is their requested restaurant. We have ordered food for one up to a catered meal for 100, always delish.“

“Excellent Chinese food compared with many others“

“It's worth a lot I don't know how much we paid because friends paid but the food was very good for Italians it's much better than in Italy and excellent service

Parking: Parking outside

Wheelchair accessibility: External ramp“

“I have been ordering from here since I moved to Hawthorne 2 years ago and food was delicious. However, tonight I had to throw my egg foo yung dinner out as it was loaded with sodium. I called and was told I need to tell them next time to put sauce on side. I hope that my next order will be on the house and taste delicioius.😗“

“I have now ordered from this restaurant over 10 times in the last two weeks —Yes the food is that good !! So well prepared , seasoned and presented!!!!! I cannot wait to go in person —This is undoubtedly the best Chineses food in Rockland County!!!!!!“

“Good food. Affordable places. Great service.“

“Short hair guy was absolutely amazing, such charm, just like the food tastes amazing, fast service taking less then 10 minutes, affordable to fill you up properly, atmosphere is pretty calm, everyone is rather friendly then hostile. Overall: 9.7/10“

“EVERYTHING eat everything sooo good“

“I arrive at this special restaurant every couple of days since I like the good mood that is outline this restaurant. The team is exceptionally cordial and qualified. The service is certainly fast. Not to mention, the food they cook is perfect. I have been there often and I was always happy. The payment is fair. I highly suggest this restaurant to to all.“

“Best Chinese food since moving from city“

“This was my first time ordering. I live in Mahwah and all my go to places were closed Sunday. It was by far the best Chinese food around! First the gentleman that took our order was super nice and friendly! The portions were great. Everything was tasty and the egg rolls were out of this world! Definitely my new go to place!“

“I didn’t want to leave this review prematurely, so I made sure to visit this place five times over the course of three months before writing it. I wanted to see if the quality stayed consistent and it absolutely did.

I’ve tried all the classics: here chicken broccoli, boneless ribs, fried chicken, sesame chicken, orange chicken, steak and peppers, white rice, pork fried rice, shrimp fried rice, and vegetable fried rice. Every single time, the food was hot, fresh, flavorful, and honestly nostalgic in the best way possible. It reminds me of how great some of the classic Chinese takeout spots used to be years ago.

The prices are incredible for the quality and portions you get, and the staff always greet you with a smile when placing your order. That kind of consistency and customer service is hard to find nowadays.

Five stars. Highly recommend. I genuinely hope they never change.“

“The food we just had from this restaurant was so good I felt moved to leave a review. The flavors were bold. Every dish had its own special spices. Singapore noodles, orange chicken that packed a punch, beef with broccoli where you can taste the ginger. Highly recommend.“

“Love this place!! Food is excellent, great menu and wonderful service. I eat there at least once a week. Usually take out but I have dined in before.

Dietary restrictions: They are flexible with orders, switching sauces, extra shrimp, etc.“

“I've been getting Chinese food from this restaurant for YEARS! The food is pretty good value for money, but the atmosphere is like a generic Chinese restaurant. I love coming here and the prices for the lunch combos DOES come in clutch??“

“Great food and very nice customer service“

“Since discovering Wonder, I have never had a fair or bad food experience. My orders have been delicious and delivery was always on time or early. I will eventually try each menu item but until then I recommend the Sushi plates and Big Belly chicken menus. The Pizza was also 100 percent.“

“The food here is so delicious and fresh! I love it! I always get hunan beef, mei fun house special noodles, house special fried rice and chicken wings… sooo good. When you get in your car, open the chicken wing bag just a little and I promise they will stay crispy! My daughter and mom can’t get enough of this place. It’s our weekly date night (at home). So if you come, Enjoy!“

“Best boneless spare ribs in the area, hands down. Big portions, reasonable price, overall great value. It's the go to for Chinese food around here.“

“Not a big chinese food fan overall. Husband few times a year wants. Have tried so many in the area and never quite happy. Hadn't ordered from here in several years. Pleasantly surprised was very good !!! Chicken not slimy texture which most chinese food is. Rice very food, overall very happy. Would order again !!“

“Upon entering Hunan New Jade Chinese Restaurant, one feels not merely welcomed but gathered in, as though the walls themselves have borne witness to years of shared meals and quiet devotion to the craft of feeding others well. The air carries the perfume of simmering broths and rising steam, rich with promise. This is no hurried hall of convenience, but a place where time slows, where the clatter of plates sounds almost ceremonial, and where hunger is met not with haste but with care.

First came the house special fried rice, arriving like a golden harvest laid before us. Each grain stood proud and separate, yet bound in harmony with its fellows, glistening softly under the warmth of the wok. Shrimp, plump and tender, nestled among morsels of chicken and pork, each cut precise, each bite full of honest savor. Vegetables lent both color and crispness, like jewels scattered through the dish. The seasoning spoke in measured tones, not shouting but persuading, coaxing the palate into lingering appreciation. It was a dish of balance and abundance, one that asked not to be rushed, but honored.

The egg drop soup followed as a gentler verse, a quiet soliloquy of comfort. Pale ribbons of egg drifted through the broth like silk in warm water, delicate yet purposeful. The liquid itself was clear and golden, its flavor subtle but deeply reassuring, as though it knew precisely what it was meant to be. Each spoonful settled the spirit as much as the appetite, a reminder that simplicity, when handled with skill, can be a form of grace.

Then entered the hot and sour soup, bold as a trumpet call and twice as stirring. Steam rose with intent, carrying notes of vinegar sharp enough to awaken the senses and spice that warmed rather than wounded. Tofu, mushrooms, and bamboo shoots formed a chorus of textures, each playing its part. The heat did not overwhelm, nor did the sour dominate, but together they danced, step for step, leaving the tongue alert and eager for what might come next. It was a soup with character, confident and unafraid to be remembered.

The sweet and sour chicken arrived clad in a glossy crimson sheen, a dish as pleasing to the eye as it was to the appetite. Each piece of chicken bore a crisp exterior that yielded with a gentle crackle, revealing meat within that was tender and true. The sauce embraced rather than smothered, its sweetness brightened by tang, its richness lifted by pineapple and vegetables that still held their snap. This was comfort rendered theatrical, familiar yet executed with such care that it felt newly discovered.

Last, and lingering long in memory, was the pineapple fried rice, a dish that carried both warmth and light. The rice, fragrant and well seasoned, played host to bursts of pineapple whose sweetness arrived like sunlight through an open window. Each bite held contrast, savory meeting sweet, softness met by gentle firmness, the whole bound together in a way that felt joyful rather than indulgent. It refreshed even as it satisfied, a rare and welcome feat.

In sum, Hunan New Jade Chinese Restaurant is a place where food is treated not as mere sustenance, but as an offering. Each dish bears the mark of hands that know their work and hearts that respect the table they serve. One does not simply eat here. One partakes, one remembers, and one departs already longing for the hour of return.“

“Been getting food from here for so many years and it is always good and consistent. Is it top quality fine dining...no, but its good and anyone ordering should already know it's take-out. Recently moved to another area of Bergen County and OMG there is some really bad Chinese food out there.“

“We arrived at this restaurant for dinner. This place was recommended to us by a friend. Well, it was a winning. the staff were so friendly and we had a fantastic feeling. The food was just great. We had a great time and we will visit this place again. Keep it up.“

“I was craving cold sesame noodles and looked for Chinese takeout place on my way home so I wouldn’t have to go out of my way to my usual spot. Sadly the noodles were over cooked and barely cold and the sauce was runny with little flavor. I couldn’t eat it. However, the broccoli and garlic sauce was delicious and the woman who took my order was friendly and professional. The food was nicely packed and she asked me whether I wanted sauce. I appreciated that because i always forget to say no sauce and I never use the sauce I get. Still craving cold sesame noodles.“

“Take out Hibachi food. Multiple options and combos. Nice size portions of food for take-out. Had salmon hibachi. Was cooked perfect w veggies and fried rice. Two tables inside for someone needing a place to eat quickly. Located in front of the Shoprite parking lot and next to McDonalds.....“

“This food is the closest to NY Chinese food Ive ever experienced since moving to NJ 18 yrs ago. no more asking for pork fried rice & receiving orange rice with nothing in it, fried wontons are fried, MSG. yum yum-everything Ive ordered is delicious. I have never had a bad experience with this restaurant?“

“Fast service of drinks etc.“

“Catered a large order on 8/22 for my BFF's family consisting of trays of Sesame Chicken & Chicken w/Broccoli, Spare Ribs, Fried Dumplings, Egg Rolls, etc.! Trays came with a half tray of Rice. The food and presentation were outstanding and were plentiful. I ordered for pickup and everything was correct and on time. If you need to feed a group of people or need individual dinners Wing Lee is an outstanding choice! I would recommend it to everyone looking for excellent Chinese food!“

“New location - same great food!!“

“Excellent! Our family orders from the local restaurant regularly & the food is really delicious. Traditional Chinese I would say.Just had the soup, egg roll, General Choi’s chicken & my wife had meal with a delicious creamy shrimp in it…Fast delivery & other delicious choices. We have never eaten at the place so I have to be neutral but for delivery & take out I’d give it an 8.5…Reasonably priced…“

“Happy to report we have finally found delicious Chinese food in the area! Portions were huge (and delicious). We tried the General Tso's, the orange chicken, chicken & broccoli and veggie lo mein! Everything was so good, my picky kids even asked for seconds. They also gave us a free 2Lt soda (though we're not soda drinkers) which we haven't seen since moving here from NYC.“

“Absolutely amazing food! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and came out hot. The staff was so kind and welcoming. Definitely coming back!

Their General Tso’s chicken was crispy on the outside, tender inside, and the sauce was the perfect balance of sweet and spicy.

The dumplings were perfectly steamed and so juicy, and the fried rice had amazing flavor without being greasy. You can tell everything is made fresh. 10/10!“

“I meet friends in this great restaurant quite a bit! This is my favorite place to pass a nice evening. I visit this spot many times. The cooking is just great, the staff members are courteous and the charge is decent. I like going in this place for a nice supper.“
