“The atmosphere at this location Continues to be a place I would use for a special dinner or just a casual night out. And was exactly what I had hoped for in a quiet anniversary celebration with my husband. Mike our server did not disappoint in the area of Helpful friendly service. My favorite singapore, street noodles that I seem to order practically every time we visit, where not up to par, this time. The dish was overcooked And my shrimp were tough. First, ever negative review? And i'm hopeful likely to be the only. Cocktails and other menu selections that we made where as tasty as we have experienced in the past.“

“I love the lemon grass soup w/the scallops & shrimp & rice noodles. It’s actually the only thing I have been getting there for the past 2 years. Yesterday the scallops were HUGE & whole...they’re usually broken, small ones!“

“CASH ONLY. They have an ATM on site though.
This place is great!
Typical Chinese takeout spot with a pretty standard menu. They have a great lunch deal during the week where you get an entree and either a soup or soda for like $10.
I’ve tried a bunch of things here and have never been disappointed. Portions are a good size and I usually have leftovers.“

“It’s by far the best Chinese food I’ve ever eaten. Not only is the food delicious, the owner, Cary and his staff are the nicest people. I highly recommend them! Also, they deliver. #wontonsoup #exceptional“

“This is definitely one of the better Chinese restaurants I’ve been to. The food itself was delicious and high-quality. One thing I noticed, however, is that there seems to be a slight difference between the menu offered to Chinese patrons and non-Chinese guests. I saw some people ordering dishes that weren't on the standard menu—I’m not quite sure what they were, but everything looked authentic and tasted great. If you're looking for solid Chinese cuisine, this place is definitely worth a visit.“

“We had my grandmother's 91st birthday celebration here in April. It was a party of 18, family style, and it was the best experience ever! The food was delicious, a great variety, beautiful plate presentation, and a warm atmosphere. The staff was attentive to our every need, the restaurant was clean and inviting and our entire group had an amazing experience! We will definitely be back!“

“They have so many options for vegetarians/vegans! The veggie dumplings were nice and I’m looking forward to try more dishes like orange tofu while I’m at Temple. Great option for late night eats. The place is clean and relatively easy to find healthy options!“

“I was looking for roast crispy duck. I didn't want to go to Chinatown because its gotten rundown, yucky traffic, expensive parking and horrible SEPTA. I decided to stay in my neighborhood so I could walk. I worried about it being expensive. Chestnut Hill is high end and the restaurant looked pricey. What a WONDERFUL SURPRISE! I was a solo table but still treated like a queen with lots of servers checking in, giving water and smiling. The roast duck in black bean sauce on the cast iron plate was SCRUMPTIOUS. It comes with a healthy side of white rice and delicate, flavorful bok choi. The skin was crispy yet NOT oily or greasy. The CHUNKS of tender duck meat were excellent. The sauce was thick, savory and yummy. FOODGASM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The portion was so healthy that I was able to take a container home for lunch the next day. Then I ordered the Mudslide ice cream pie for dessert. PERFECTION. Dense, creamy, sweet but not cloying with nut accents, fresh strawberries and cream as garnish. Cool treat on a humid Summer night. When the bill came, I was shocked that it was less than $40. I did not order a cocktail because I wanted to concentrate on the food. I gave them a big tip and said I am absolutely returning. I am also addicted to their spring rolls too. Two perfect crunchy flaky rolls filled with a balanced combination of shrimp, cheese, and cabbage that you can dip in duck sauce or mustard or just enjoy plain.“

“The best Chinese around us. We drive all the way from north Doylestown because their food is so flavorful without being greasy. My entire family loves everything we order from here. The wonton soup is especially good as is the fried rice, hunan chicken, fried dumplings, and pork lo mein! The owners are so nice as is their son who is there whenever I pick up.“
“Recently tried this place and the food is delicious. I did a make your own bowl and the broccoli was crunchy and the noodles were cooked perfectly. I wasn’t a fan of dumplings wish they were chicken but weren’t bad . Definitely recommend“

“SIMPLY THE BEST CHINESSE RESTAURANT IN THE AREA. We go all the way from Hatboro to this place because is good. They put lots of different vegetables. It is the best in this area. It is not gourmet but the average Chinese restaurant is the best. The people is super nice. The guy cooking is real Chinese and you can tell that he cares. You go to other places, and they just put a bunch of broccoli with a little bit of sauce and they call it Vegie Mix, here, you get a variety of vegetables. The food WAS NOT salty at all, natural.“

“This was my go-to spot for delicious takeout food when I lived in Philadelphia. I'd drive out of my way to pick this up. The mango basil fried rice is amazing! I also liked the hunan shrimp. I moved away years ago but got some food again last week when visiting the area, it is still just as yummy as I remember it! The inside is bit rough around the edges but that's normal for takeout spots. Whenever I'm in the area the mango basil fried rice is a must get! Definitely a hidden a gem!!! 😋“

“My family and I 5 generations have enjoyed your food over the years. From my granny (who has now past) my mother, myself, my children, and now their children. The food is always fresh, tasty and having moved down south trips back up North include a 30 - 40 min drive from New Jersey. Love the family, when we come for food we often talk about our children as we are in the same age group and update on the new things. Visiting soon will be making a trip over.“

“The lunch specials are a great deal. The Mapo Tofu was great (and well portioned) and the wontons in the wonton soup were well made (the broth of the wonton soup was pretty middling but at the end of the day you're getting the soup for the wontons not the broth).“

“Got a general tso combo platter. Super fast, the staff is very friendly, and the portion size is easily double anywhere else in east mount airy for a dollar or two less. Downside is the chicken was not crispy, and it was barely in the box for 5 minutes so i know it didnt get soggy that way. Also the fried rice and egg roll were only so so. Because of the huge portion im having some of the chicken for lunch the next day, 100 percent better cold so it isn't soggy.“

“Best Chinese food we have had in a long time! The staff were friendly. We all ordered different items and everything was delicious. The meat is hand breaded and fried. Towards the back you can see the staff hand making and stuffing dough. Would recommend to anyone in the area!“

“You can order online from a website that kindly reminds you what it was like on the internet in the 00's, before every millimeter of your screen was optimized and monetized. Things are misspelled (Chicken w/ borcolli; Singapore Rice Noodel) in a way that doesn't interfere with intelligibility, and provides yet another reminder of charm from a past you might not have experienced but can still, if only faintly, remember. Similarly, the interior harkens to a China that likely doesn't exist and never existed, but is convenient for the American perception. A large palm stands tall yet sheds two or three yellow leaves, suggesting that most attention is paid by staff behind the counter, not in front of it. A calendar shows an impossibly skinny Chinese woman looking at you genially. The wallpaper combines shades of jade and a muted yellow which, alongside the mahogany-colored chairs and tables, creates an inviting environment to wait for your food, seemingly on accident (though one can never be too sure).
It's a casual experience from start to finish. It weighs only very lightly on you, and the action causing the most resistance is when you try make a final decision on what you'll be ordering. The prices are cheap--one order of food, for just one person, could feed you for three whole meals. Therefore, this decision has a three day consequence--and don't be fooled by the casual nature of everything, there are definitely wrong choices. Any non-breaded chicken you order will be soggy and formless, and most beef will be similar. However, the spare rib and the breaded chicken (specifically General Tso's) are full of flavor and savory texture, as is the pork-fried rice, as are the eggrolls. The canned sodas from the fridge even taste better than store bought.
The family who owns the place are incredibly kind, even in the face of hardship. I ordered on Christmas Eve when they were absolutely swamped, since no other restaurants in the area were open. In total I waited 2 hours for my food, as did other patrons whom I waited with. We were all given an entire bag of Chinese tea candies as a token of the staff's appreciation, as were handed the bag with a disproportionate amount of glee and genuine cheer. I also live near some of the people who own/work the place, and they are some of the only people in the neighborhood willing to be vulnerable enough to smile and wave as neighbors cross their path. They are caring and patient towards their young children as well, and they work their tails off.
American-Chinese takeout, like most things for sale in today's markets, is both great and terrible for you. The levels of sodium, if consumed everyday, would cause severe inflammation in your body. However, your pockets will be happy that you chose to settle down with a 9 dollar 3000 calorie deal instead of doordashing Popeyes and paying $30 for it. And, most importantly, something in your soul will feel called to, catered to, held, and loved. Food is love, and that is one of the few human universals. New China JAMISON is a method for tapping into this love on an as-needed basis, and offers even more in terms of nostalgia and warmth for those with the minds open to perceive it. I give them 4/5 stars.“

“After traveling late trying to find something to eat I was ready to settle for anything, we came upon China Bowl and I figured I haven’t had Chinese in a while so why not , when I tell yall the food was so amazing and delicious I had the shrimp egg foo young and my partner had shrimp with broccoli everyone around us said how good it smelled so yes I will be back and they deserve this good review.“
“I’ve been going here since they first opened, this small family run business is amazing! Their quality for the food is excellent for the pricing and the service there is very friendly. I do pickup and the time that the food gets ready is always quick, My family always loves to go to this place at least once a week. I’ve tried delivery before but it was a little slow but I understand because their busy sometimes, overall I would recommend!“

“Clean fresh food, plus a clean cook/chef. I asked for my broccoli to be steamed 10-15 minutes soft and they cook my broccoli soft/ perfect, not hard or crunchy and fix my food perfect cooked, they have Good / the best Wings. Food cooked the way I wanted and perfect. No bad attitude. My first impression clean people, good food and It look like they clean their waiting / order room. My New place to go to besides a block up Frankford Ave, young people snooby funny acting like are black kids rubbed off on her at the Chinese store a block away and cook food to their liking/ way they want, I will definitely order here again, thou.

“I make a 40-minute drive every time I crave Chinese food. This place is my go-to! Of course, being across the street from a bar means I have to deal with the occasional drunk men hitting on me, but it’s all worth it. As long as they don’t get disrespectful, it’s a small price to pay. Plus, I always order ahead, so I only have to wait about 2 minutes, if that, when I get there. The staff is incredibly friendly and takes their time when you order through the phone. My favorite dishes would have to be the Beef Yat and Boneless spare ribs!! Hands down, this is the best place for Chinese food!“

“I've been going here, affectionately known as Sonny's, for over 35 years. I love everything I've ever had. However, I'll drive here from SC (like I did today) just for a pizza roll or shrimp basket. The tostones (fried plantain) and chicken wings are also delicious! You can't go wrong with anything there.“

“We visited on a Sunday for pickup. Staff is super friendly with great customer service. Dumplings were tasty! They customized our dishes to make spicy. Curry Chicken w/fresh veggies and Kung Pao were delicious as well! We had dessert first at Joey's Treats and Sweets around the corner:) But dinner was enjoyed too!“
