Haven't been here since I used to live in westchester county. But I am back and it is good that they are still here. One of my friends used this establishment for house party. They order pork egg rolls, pork fried rice, shrimp and broccoli with white sauce, fried dumplings, friend chicken wings, and BBQ ribs. It is amazing still as I delicious. Ready to get 2nd and 3rds. read more

said: 3-Star Review for China Cafe - Iselin, NJ Tried China Cafe in Iselin for a quick takeout. Called ahead and placed the order -- they had it ready in just 10-15 minutes, which was impressive. I ordered the General Tso Tofu and a soup. The soup was actually pretty good, but the tofu dish was underwhelming. Despite asking for it to be spicy, it came out very sweet -- more like a dessert than a main course. Also, the price felt steep -- around $23-25 for tofu is on the higher end, especially when compared to other similar spots. Ambience was good The quantity was generous, and the restaurant itself looked clean with nice seating and good parking available. But for the price and taste, it didn't really hit the mark. Not bad, but definitely room for improvement. read more

While it may be slightly more expensive than other take-out joints in Woodbridge, the food is always top-notch and I believe their containers are a little larger than other take-out places. There are plenty of choices in Woodbridge NJ so for cheap me to pay more, it's gotta be better. Lo mein has that great smoky flavor. Soups are great. And it's hard to find a flavorful egg roll but their shrimp egg roll has a great taste. If you spend $60, you get a free 2-liter soda bottle. read more

The food is delicious and portions are big enough for two , very good service and clean place

This restaurant was delicious. The food was amazing. The staff was really friendly and they gave me a free sprite so that's an automatic great service! Very sweet staff, I realized I didn't have my mask with me and was holding my sweater up and they gave me a free mask. The lo mein was really good and flavorful. The chicken and broccoli & triple broccoli also very good. I wish they could've done the chicken broccoli with the lo mein as a combo but you had to order it separate. Only thing I would warn you about is that it is kind of pricey but it is worth it for a good Chinese food spot. It's located right behind Best Buy, better to take the T.G.I Friday's entrance to get there. If your in the mood for GOOD comfort food and really good fresh food this is the spot!! I can't wait to have it again read more

Incredible food, and the cleanest Chinese place I've ever been to in my life. Having said that, it's also the most expensive Chinese food I've ever seen in my life - by a factor of two! Five stars otherwise, but the pricing is truly outrageous. read more

Ordered delivery wanted to see if there was something to all the 5 star reviews. The service was very nice and delivery guy was also. As far as the food it is no better than my regular Chinese food. Which is very good but simply cannot justify a $86 bill for three meals one appetizer and a 2 liter bottle of soda. Probably $25-$30 more than my regular place. Don't believe the hype of the reviews. read more

Still one of the best Chinese take out restaurants. Super fresh, decently sized portions. A bit more on the pricey side for Chinese take out but you get what you pay for! Highly recommend! read more

The food prepared by the workers is unhygienic, the taste is not good, and the price of the food is extremely expensive. Why are there still so many idiots who like to eat it! read more

I had to come on here just to leave some positive feedback because I know small businesses are struggling right now and I hope my review can help this place in some way. However, they are literally always busy so I think they might be doing just fine! I tried this place for the first time last week and my family loved it so much, so we ordered again this weekend. We usually get the same thing whenever we order from a Chinese place because of our dietary restrictions (Singapore mei fun and some variation of tofu broccoli stir fry). Theirs is the best Singapore mei fun we've ever had. We order it vegan (no eggs no meat) and they are very accommodating with dietary restrictions. Flavors, quantity and quality are spot on. read more

Literally THE BEST CHINESE FOOD EVER!!!!! For decades I've been eating crap Chinese food, thinking "I guess this is just what it is, then I come across this place, and wow!! I want to go to the other Chinese restaurants and show them the food from China Cafe and yell at them, "this is what it's supposed to look like and taste like!! I have been lied to my whole life, now I gotta travel 40 minutes each way to get this food!!! It's been 5 days since I've eaten there and that's all I've been thinking about all week. I've found my true love, CC & Noble 4eva read more

My husbands go to takeout Chinese in the area. He loves it but I'm okay on it. Food is fresh but not the best Chinese I've had.

This is my new go to place! I've been looking for a good Chinese to go place and finally found it. So so so good!

Still the BEST CHINESE FOOD out there!! Hands down. I keep trying new places (only because of delivery option) hoping it would be half as good and every time I kick myself in the ass. Wish they were on one of those food delivery services. Seriously. read more

Be careful in ordering food. We found hair in our food that was surely not ours. I don't know if their workers wear a hairnet. read more

Been coming here for years. Favorite take out spot. Food always comes out fast and delicious! Chicken wings are a go-to and broccoli shrimp with white sauce. They also have really good Chinese beef noodle soup. read more

Food is always fresh and I've been going here for over 40 years. They have a great selection for a very small but clean place.

I want to start with stating that their lunch special options are filled the brim in the styrofoam takeout container. For an American Chinese takeout place, the flavor here has been better than a lot of competitors in the area. Rice is not too oily, family style dishes are not overly salted nor overly sweet. I'm looking at you, General Tso's Chicken with fried rice. You taste different layers similar in good authentic Chinese food. The chef must pull out some of the food while cooking to taste test and adjust flavoring! My favorite American Chinese takeout establishment currently in New Jersey. read more

You can't go wrong with Chinese Food, especially if you stick with China Cafe's. My family is in the area and we LOVE LOVE LOVE coming here! My personal favorites are their famous general tso chicken, beef stew noodles, jumbo shrimps, and mixed vegetables in the white sauce. This is not your ordinary chinese take-out restaurant. The foods are not greasy, they are full of flavors, and the staff are super sweet. This place is very clean too. FYI: Come with a big stomach because their portions are huge!! Definitely a bang for your bucks! Thank you China Cafe for feeding my stomach! read more

This is the best Chinese takeout restaurant in this area! I always order from here when I am craving Chinese food and my usual order is the wonton soup, lo Mein combo or chicken chow fun. The portion sizes are great for the price and the food is ready pretty quickly. They do deliver in the area and delivery is prompt and convenient! read more

I really like this spot, out of most I've been to this has to be the cleanest and most friendliest place. The food is behind great. I came here after going furniture shopping, and wanted some quick lunch. Although you can't really sit down right now, I was eyeballing the place and I just say it's very clean. You can see through the kitchen and regularly you'll see the workers cleaning as they cook. That's a plus for me, cleanliness in a work environment is always a need right? The service is very quick. They get a lot of orders, they have a good lunch buffet that ends around three. Sadly I missed that, but that was fine I still got to order. The workers are there at your service and do as needed, no time for gossip and chit-chat. Their main priority is to get your food to you in a timely manner! Now the food, I only had shrimp egg rolls and egg drop soup. I ordered around 4 egg rolls to share with friends, and there was a large egg drop soup. The egg rolls were tasty and fresh, we had no real issues--however the veins were still attached which may be an issue for some, like myself. But that can easily be removed. The soup was great, not salty and full of MSG at all! It was great to have a nicely flavored soup with black pepper added in. In all the bill was 11$, which wasn't bad. They got me my food quick and I enjoyed it as a quick lunch, I really recommend them. They're fast and cheap for a nice lunch. read more

Why go to NYC when you have the best Chinese food in NJ everything good I recommend The steak and the black bean sauce and HOT peppers order it two times hot and two times spicy also order the pork fried rice order it two times dark you can't go wrong with the boneless rib read more

Best Chinese in the area hands down! Everything is always fresh and ready very quick. Pork lo mein is the best I've had anywhere.

Food is awesome,, best Ive had in New Jersey since moving here. Staff is very friendly. But the prices are OUTRAGEOUS,,I mean really really OUTRAGEOUS, like almost double most chinese restaurants. read more

Read other reviews and had high hopes for this please but boy was it disappointing! The food here wasn't good at all. One of the worse Chinese takeout my family and I have ever tried. First, the food is a bit pricey considering it's lunch special price. Second, the general tso chicken is usually breaded crispy. Their chicken is breaded soggy and oily. The vegetable fried rice was literally floating with cooking oil. The lo mein was bland and very oily as well. The food was so oily that I think the chef must have accidentally dropped a cup of oil while cooking every dish. My family and I felt disgusted eating a few bites and we threw away our lunch. My mom had soft bean curd tofu with white rice. We had requested the dish to be non spicy. Of course, when we brought the lunches home to eat, the damn dish was spicy. She did manage to take a few bites but then complained it was loaded with grease and red pepper flakes so we threw it away too. This is not a very good experience. The worst Chinese takeout ever. read more

One of the better Chinese food restaurants. Mostly for take out as they don't have much seating available. My new go to spot.

I have been going here for +35 years since I was a young child. The best Chinese food in the world! They are expensive compared to most other chinese places. However this is a true case of "You get what you pay for". IMHO Their signature dish is the Chicken w/ Broccoli. This is one of my top 3 meals in life of all time to order, hands down! You know they are good when this place is hidden behind a Best Buy with minimal signs and it is still in business decades later. I think every other shop around it has changed except the the great "China Cafe". Service is great, the same family runs after all these years,..they are the best and super friendly. In all my years going there they have never made a mistake on one of my orders,.... ever! They take great pride in what they cook and how efficiently they serve it. All food joints should take lessons from their staff. Thank you China Cafe for all the years of great food and great service! Hope you are here for many more years to come. read more

Food is amazing but really.....$22 for a Qt of beef and broccoli?? And apparently Chinese food restaurants in NJ still use MSG... you can ask for without if its not pre-made already. read more
