This restaurant is the kind of place you'd expect for a usual Chinese take-out business, so if you're coming over to eat inside, don't expect it to be this total grand and stellar eating/dining experience. This place is usually best if you're ordering your food for to-go, which is what I do with China Moon. Food is average or "eh", BUT I will say that their fried chicken wings are really good. If you're ordering from here, definitely try those from the menu. read more

Not going back. Tried them for takeaway last night, shrimp chow mein, spring rolls and sweet & sour shrimp. Chow mein had no flavor and was mostly cabbage, shrimp was obviously frozen, thawed, then overcooked. S&S shrimp was over-battered doughy shrimp that wasn't cooked at high temp to give it that nice crispness, instead it was raw batter on the inside and soggy greasy on the outside. They dumped into a takeout box and provided a side of liquid sauce. no pineapple, red peppers or anything to make it taste better or appetizing. Rice was sticky and starchy, obviously in rice pot too long, and no fortune cookies or chopsticks in the bag. Terrible, ended up throwing most of it away. Only good thing about the experience is the online ordering is easy and food was ready when they said it would be. read more

I think someone needs to check them out for shady business practices. The guy at the counter refused to communicate with me in English. He just asked Apple Pay or card and I said card, but then asked if there was a surcharge on the card? He wouldn't answer. So I said ok , what about Apple Pay ? Do you not charge a surcharge, he refused to answer and just repeated card or Apple Pay? So I said card, and he said clearly in English '$61 for you'. I for the life of me can't add the prices up from the menu to that number. I came up with $51 before the surcharge - I think they refuse to speak to you in English and then just scam you for extra money. The food was fine - but I am more upset about being taken advantage of. I don't feel like this is a new problem, but the person behind the counter just seemed particularly rude this time. Customers need to be protected and if they don't explain ahead of payment what you are being charged extra for, I think that is against NJ law. read more

Love their good great service. Will defensively go back again been to many Chinese restaurants this one good come on come all

I ordered $30 worth of food and ended up throwing it all out because it smelled and tasted horrible. Waste of time and money. I've never put something so disgusting tasting in my body. I thought maybe it's just smelled like body odor because of some oil they used? But it tasted like BO as well. Side note: DO NOT ORDER THE CHOW MEIN-- it is literally pig slop. There is no noodles-- it is just onions and undercooked chicken. Researched and online it said that it is not common on the east coast but some places say "chow mein" because the dish was revised to taste more like chop sewey that was popular in the Midwest. I called and they said that I should've ordered "lo mein" if I wanted noodles but MEIN LITERALLY MEANS NOODLES in Chinese. In addition to this, there was no mention on their website about this not containing noodles. Worst Chinese food I've ever had in my life. Minus well have taken $30 and thrown it in the trash, would've saved me some freaking time. read more

China Moon - This is what mein means, literally means noodles. - Chinese Near Me - Bridgewater, New Jersey

We won't be ordering from China Moon again. Food was disappointing, owner rude and was charged an additional 4% fee on CASH payment. Didn't think that was legal in NJ. read more

I'm not one to leave reviews but I had to in this case. very rude and disrespectful staff. Charged and gave me an extra side I did not order to round up my bill without my knowledge. On my way out I noticed and and was given the rudest response ever and shouted at. Honestly wouldn't have been too upset about this if the food was great but it's barely tolerable. Second and last time getting food there. They clearly use day old noodles for meals. Do with this information what you will. read more

I bought Singapore Mai Fun, also asked for hot oil on the side. I received hot sauce and there was no turmeric used and no egg which comes with it when I buy from other restaurants. Hope they take care of customers and not cut short on ingredients if they charge me almost $13. read more

China Moon - Singapore Mai Fun. - Chinese Near Me - Bridgewater, New Jersey

This is the worst Chinese restaurant I've ever ordered from. I called in an order today for the "Triple Delight" from the Chef's Specials and an order of "Sweet and Sour Chicken" from the Combination Plates. I should have known something was wrong when the guy I was speaking to was ready to hang up until I asked him how long it would take. He said, "10 minutes" and then click. I walked into the place and instead of being greeted with "Hi" or "Hello", I was greeted with, "You here for pick-up?" I paid for the food and said "Thanks" as I was leaving and got no response from the 2 guys behind the counter. I brought the food home and it has to be the most unflavored/uninspired Chinese cooking I've ever tasted. The "Triple Delight" is advertised as hot and spicy which it was not, (only 4 shrimp in the entire dish), the egg rolls were tasteless and the "Sweet and Sour" Chicken with fried rice is terrible. If your looking for Chinese food in the Branchburg/Raritan area, you'd be better served going to ShopRite or Wegmans. read more

China Moon - "Sweet and Sour" Chicken with fried rice? Yuck! - Chinese Near Me - Bridgewater, New Jersey

I'll round up to a 4 because I think 3 is just too neutral for China Moon. I visited only once for a sit-down lunch during the two weeks I spent in the plaza. I went based on reviews and ordered on recommendations. I heard the cold noodles appetizer is great but I went for the garlic beef lunch, served with rice, soup and chips. It was prepared quickly and served fresh, hot. I really enjoyed the meal and found nothing wrong, which is -in my opinion- the mark of a solid (primarily) take out Chinese joint. Ask for chili on the side if you want an additional kick in the tongue. The restaurant is a standard take out place with seating for about 15 for whoever wishes to dine-in. The restaurant is clean and has 2 bathrooms. The apparent owners were very friendly. If I lived in the area, I would be happy to call this restaurant my local Chinese spot. read more

China Moon - Garlic beef... go for it - Chinese Near Me - Bridgewater, New Jersey

I haven't been to one of these types of Chinese Restaurants in ages. Why? Because it's usually geared towards the taste of non-Chinese people. Being that we didn't want to go far and wanted something quick; this was the option. My girlfriend family go to spot when doing take out. This is a very typical of any Chinese Take Out Restaurant. Nothing out of the ordinary. Similar to others. The owner is bombarded with take out phone calls. My guess was that this is not NYC where there are Chinese Take Out every dozen blocks. This is New Jersey and probably the only one within distance. We got the usual suspect of dishes. Chicken & Broccoli, General Tso Chicken Combinations, and side of Chicken Wings. It comes with rice and egg rolls. Tasted decent and satisfied my stomach. Really no complaints. Kitchen staff was always busy cooking. They even ran out of chow fun noodles. Must be that popular around Bridgewater, NJ. read more

I normally come here once every few weeks or so, since it's about a 15-minute walk from my house. I don't even call ahead (though I probably should), but the food is always prepared pretty quickly after I order. I've been there often enough that they immediately know my usual: veg lo mein, sometimes with 2 veggie spring rolls or veg dumplings. Despite getting the "small"/regular size for veg lo mein, it is a ton of food - definitely a filling meal. I've never had any complaints about the food; it's cooked well, and tastes great. I usually go in the evening, and there's almost never a crowd. It's no 5-star restaurant, obviously, but it's exactly what I like. If you want delicious Chinese American food and you're not looking for anything fancy, China Moon is an excellent choice. read more

Hole in the wall, fast food Chinese... that said it very good. Stop by whenever I'm in town. Compared to Michigan Chinese, it's 5 stars. Just OK by NY standards. read more

Man this place is really good!! Ordered Beef with tomatoes +Broccoli, Shrimp Lo Mein, and sweet n sour chicken w/fried rice. It was the best Beef and tomatoes we've ever had. lo Mein was nice and thick, not too greasy, and the fried rice had nice crispy bean sprouts and onions! They have COVID walls and contactless payment so it was easy pickup! Definitely found my go-to Chinese!!! read more

So we have been here for Chinese a few times and had been happy. Until today... We ordered Sweet n Sour Shrimp and they definitely left a sour expression in our face when we cut what we thought were good size shrimp ended up being a huge fried ball with the tiniest shrimp I've ever seen hidden inside. The low main plate was just a stiff ball of noodles. Just ruined the moment to have such disappointment. May not be coming back here. If you want to search for shrimp in your plate come here! read more

very rude staff. cursing at customer even you ask minor question. food quality is not good too. found bug in the food. I would give 0 rating. read more

This is some of the best Chinese in the area. The quality of the beef that they use is second to none! We love the beef w/ broccoli and the beef on a stick. But anything from here is fantastic!! read more

Always good quality and a good portion for the price. Scallion pancakes are a must order from here!!

The food is really good and nicely prepared, and everyone is so friendly, I definently recommend authentic Chinese food

Ordered broccoli in garlic sauce. Everywhere I ordered that they do not put mushrooms in it but this place does. But on the menu does not say anything about mushrooms. I cannot eat mushrooms. Same thing with all the rest of the food I ordered. ( shrimp with Chinese vegetables but more mushrooms than vegetables and only 5 shrimp. Could not eat the food because everything tasted like mushrooms. Not going there again. read more

There are no shortage of Chinese take-out establishments in this area, but in my experience China Moon on route 28 is the best of the lot. Nothing fancy here, typical menu and communication. I give them credit for keeping the MSG to a minimum and also for relying on what always appear to be very fresh ingredients. read more

Typical Chinese Restaurant....You go in and you go out. Tried a couple of their chicken dishes, orange flavored chicken with pork fried rice. Then another time I was here, I had their sweet and sour chicken with chicken fried rice this time. Both times I had a content smile in my face. Good enough to get your FILL on! Would stop by here again if Im around the area. Staff are always busy cooking, so the only one you really chit chat with is the guy behind the cash register. ;) read more

I have been going here for years and years. This place has by far some of the freshest Americanized Chinese food - for what we prefer to order (Lo Mein, Chow Mein with chicken, shrimp, sweet and sour chicken, pork fried rice, eggplant w chicken in garlic sauce, spring rolls are especially tasty, and crab wontons) I always write out my order, in the order items appear on the menu, ahead of calling in, so I can really run down my order quick since I know this is a fast paced business (sometimes I'm too quick, lol!) and the order is always ready fast! I want to thank the owners for running a tight and tasty ship, and I hope they will be here for many years to come :) read more

definitely my favorite chinese food around. staff is a little rude and seems like they don't want conversation which is okay and the food makes up for it. shrimp fried rice is the best and there is always a lot of shrimp so they don't hold back. will be back again read more

Ordered the scallops with broccoli. Their scallops are imitation crab meat, no scallops at all. If you advertise scallops don't serve imitation crab meat. Will not go back there, maybe that's why the place is empty. read more

First time here while visiting bridge water. We ordered chicken and broccoli and sweet and sour chicken. The food was pretty good and better than most places we have been to. I would definitely come here again to eat. There is no sit down seating at this time due to covid. read more

Been going for 20 years. Now it's no longer good. Will need to find someplace new. No idea what happened. Most recently, Of the 4 dishes brought home, I literally threw one out right away bc it was horrible and the chicken was literally raw. My family didn't really eat the other dishes after that, so basically it was a waste of money. I didn't recognize the staff so not sure if it's the same owner or not. Regardless, too many poor meals, so I'm out. read more

Nasty!!! That's all I can say. The food here is disgusting. Don't waist your money!!!

Best China food around in the area. Love their cold noodles, Mongolian beef, sesame chicken, shrimp and eggplant in garlic sauce. Just wish they would deliver. read more

This place has been getting worse and worse for the past year. Today was the order that will not send us back. DONE!! First off, fried rice in combo platters was tasteless!! There was no Broccoli under the general Tao chicken and no hot peppers. The worst part was the egg roll!! After I cut it open, there was a rancid smell. Not realizing it was the egg roll, I took a bite and immediately spit it out!!the taste matched the smell! Horrible! I called however nobody was able to fully understand what rancid, bad, yucky, gross meant. All he heard was egg roll and said nobody complained today. I hung up. Not going back!!! read more

My normal go to is House of Wong for Chinese American food but I wanted to give this place a chance since I've heard good things.... I walk in and there are art supplies and games all over the tables. There were still a few open spots so I wasn't going to complain. I know daycare is expensive and my family didn't mind eating in this young boy's playroom. There was also an older woman sitting diagonally facing the dining area, she was probably in charge of the kid and had to sit out there to watch him. As I was deciding what to order, this woman let's out a HUGE wet burp, I was stunned and looked towards her and she lets out another one. My kids claimed they could smell it, but I didn't. I did however place the menu down and leave without ordering. The funniest thing was as we walked out the door the man behind the counter screamed something at us. I don't understand the language so I don't know what he said, but I wish I did.... read more

I am updating my review, I've been coming here for a while and I find them very likable. This isn't generally the case for these types of places, not sure why it just is. They have a few rules that I have to follow apparently, $10 minimum on the credit card and apparently this was told to me before because The guy who works here said, "you know this" it was funny... I also had an issue where I Somehow dropped one of the glass soy sauce bottles,You know the one with the red cap, the glass shattered and they were so he sauce everywhere. They were relatively empathetic and cleaned it up, they had a point when they said there was one on my table that I didn't need to grab the other one that I dropped. This is a good point that it was right on my table somehow I didn't notice it, yet again I was lectured and they were right. Another day IBrought my garbage to the counter because they don't have a garbage can in the dining area and I add another soy sauce incident, I had a trail of it going for the table all the way to the counter. This time I was given instructions to just "leave the garbage on the table, I'll take care of it" we spoke about it and apparently it was because of the soy sauce. I agree 100%. read more

Very good Chinese food, reasonable prices. It's not that close to me, but if I'm in the area I have to get their chicken fried rice--very flavorful. Sometimes there's a wait; it can get busy. read more

Rude people. Fake meat in food. Food poisoning next day. I am not one to complain about food. I am known by many to eat quite adventurous meals. Trust me, do not go here. read more

Good food. always fast. great portions. Get my steamed chicken and veggies here.

Always get the lunch special. Never had a complaint about the place. They make everything to order, and make everything correctly. For $13 you get so much food. read more

I have been going here for years and got the beef chow fun, it was absolutely disgusting, I've had it in the past at other places and it's always been good, it was chewy and unflavored the beef tasted rancid and the noodles were bad, also there was like lettuce or cabbage in it for some reason, absolutely lost my loyalty. Disgusting. If I could give it a zero I would. read more

Nice people. Prices aren't bad for amount you get. The food is on the better side of take out Chinese food that I've had in the area. Crab ragoons actually have crab inside, unlike most places where it's just cheese. read more

I looooove this place! Good food and good price! For me, this is the best chinese food take out. Their service is super fast. They give you a lot of food too. Also, the staff is very nice :) read more

Tried the beef egg foo young, moo shu chicken, wonton soup, pork egg roll, pork spare ribs, and shrimp toast - all decent. The butterfly shrimp in the pu-pu platter were mostly batter, but you'll find that at most places. We'll eat here again. read more
