    hot and sour soup, shrimp chow fun, vegetable fried rice, sweet and sour pork, beef with mushroom
    Jane Y.

    My favorite American Chinese food take out place, possibly ever. So why only the 4 stars? The place isn't the cleanest, the staff isn't the friendliest, and it's the type of place where you constantly hear horror stories like cooks in the back (it's an open kitchen and you see it right from the register) dipping their bare hands into vats of cracked eggs to fish stuff out... but if you're willing to overlook all of that (idk if the stories are true as I've never witnessed it myself, but my friends claim it to be - and they still love the place regardless) the food is delicious! I've never been able to find an American Chinese take out place as good. The establishment is not fancy, and definitely not sparkly clean, but they package their food well. They offer services on the delivery apps, but I like to directly give places my business, so when I call the employee who answers is never friendly, but they always get my order correct and the estimated time for pick up is always accurate. And the prices are very fair. They also have a simple set up in the front where you can take your take out and eat it there outdoors if you please - great for this current covid-19 times, but it's also regularly used otherwise. They have so many things on the menu, so if you need some suggestions, my favorites are: beef chow fun, sweet and sour pork, happy family and their hot and sour soup! They also have a lunch menu which is FABULOUS and a great deal for your buck. Also, you can always modify the rice that comes with your entree. Rice options are: friend rice, white rice, and brown rice.

    Lobster with ginger and scallions

    I ordered the lobster with ginger and scallions and was a little apprehensive about it. But did it anyway I'm so glad I did it was delicious and the lobster was not small. It was a nice size.

    House Special Wontons (aka "Crack Dumplings")
    Andrea T.

    4 fast food type stars. Although I have not lived in Cresskill in almost 15 years, I still have my menu numbers committed to memory. The wontons, affectionately called "crack dumplings" are made in house, and their roast pork fried rice has never included peas and carrots (very important). Don't show up at Good Taste expecting: -a maitre d' -a restroom -a table -chair(s) However, if you enjoy picking up the phone and ordering an entire menu section's worth of food and having it ready for pick up in 10 minutes and be entirely edible and reasonably priced, knock yourself out and give them a call.

    I haven't eaten from this place since the 90's and I ordered delivery yesterday. The woman on the phone was short and quick taking my order (typical for a Chinese takeout place). My delivery came in less than 15 minutes (I live about a mile from here). The delivery guy was weird in the sense that he just took my money and left. My bill came to $18.48 and I gave him a coupon for $2 off with a $20 bill. He said okay and walked away. What if I wanted change? I didn't, but I never said that. Anyway, I ordered 2 Roast Pork Egg Rolls (big and tasty), House Special Wontons (really really good. The sauce is great and they give you a lot of wontons), a pint of Hot & Sour soup (tasty but needed more heat), and the Shrimp with Lobster Sauce with Pork Fried Rice (old skool lobster sauce with ground pork and HUGE shrimp). I love that this place doesn't put peas in their delicious fried rice or lobster sauce (I hate peas) - back in the day Chinese places usually didn't, but most do now. Another important thing for me was that their rice wasn't yellow (I hate that a lot of places use yellow rice). Overall I really enjoyed my food (and enjoying the leftovers today). A couple of notes: they charge $1 for delivery, even though I ordered egg rolls they didn't throw duck sauce or hot mustard in my bag (just hot sauce and soy), and they charge $.75 for hot & sour soup if you get it with the lunch special (lunch specials come with egg drop soup or wonton soup - a lot of places charge to upgrade to the hot & sour soup).

I say this without hesitation, and…read moreby judging the restaurant on what it's trying to be: the highest expression of a neighborhood Korean-Chinese place. We most recently came in on a Friday night with a 6 pm reservation. Yes, we had to flag down one of the harried but cheerful women working here to place our order. But look around - there's not a white tablecloth in sight. You may have to catch someone's eye, and there's nothing wrong with that. By 6:15 pm, half of our order was on the table, and we were gleefully chomping on fried dumplings and pillowy buns. The small but clean and modern space was packed - packed with people, but also with so much happiness. Almost everyone was smiling, laughing, and joking as they tucked into this feel-good array of comfort classics. Jajangmyun, jjampong, khan poong, gochu japchae... all of these traditional dishes sang. Even a simple plate of sauteed vegetables was delicious. And everything spent just seconds between being finished in the kitchen and sitting in front of us. Is it cheap? No, nor should it be. The ingredients are of the freshest, including the seafood. The cooking couldn't be better. And this is no grimy hole in the wall. If it were a French bistro, you'd have no problem with the prices. So pay these fine folks what they deserve, and enjoy.

NY Strip Steak Cheeseburger & Fries Here is the novelty regarding all of these appetizing entrees; they were all prepared from a Chinese take out restaurant! While most of the double sided menu offers Asian cuisine, there is one section specifically geared for American dishes! And the best part is it all tastes fantastic! The starters are on par. They taste identical to what you'd get served at a pub. The cheeseburger was a juicy, giant patty served on a brioche bun. The burger exceeds a Quarter Pounder in terms of taste and size! The steak was also decent, but make sure you have your favorite bottle of steak sauce handy! It's not Longhorn quality, but you'll still get your money's worth and will be satisfied. The calamari was more chewy than crispy, but it wasn't the worst I've had. In fact, it tastes better when I re-heated it in the oven for my preferred level of crispiness. There isn't any indoor seating, so take their outdoor sign literally. If you are looking for delicious non-Asian dishes at reasonable prices at a Chinese spot, this is the place to go.

Looking at the menu, I saw that they also offered a full Japanese selection with loads of sushi options. Everything sounded great, and I got excited for our meal. When we arrived, I was very impressed by the atmosphere, which was stylish, modern, and spacious. Our waitress was fine, but seemed to have a bit of a chip on her shoulder. Regardless, the food was excellent! The place was BYOB, but did have a Shirley Temple on the beverage section of the menu, which I thought was a cute alternative. As I mentioned, the food options were vast, which made it tough to decide how to proceed. In the end, I decided to get a single piece of sushi and a full Chinese entree. The piece of Eel Sushi I ordered was delivered as sashimi. When I noted the difference to the server, she looked at me like I was nuts, but asked if I wanted a bed of rice to put the fish on...I just said to forget it, since I already had a side of rice with my entree. It was just a weird exchange, but the eel was fresh and delicious. For my main course, I went with the Chicken and Eggplant with Spicy Garlic Basil Sauce and a side of brown rice. The meat was tender, the sauce had just the right amount of heat, and it was all just so flavorful! Plus, the portion was very generous. I tried a bite of the Spicy Asian Flower Herbs Chicken, which was noted as being "wok-sauteed in high flame for extreme spice". The diced chicken with red peppers and snap peas had been cooked with Szechuan peppercorns, but, thankfully, none of actual peppercorns were in the dish. So, there was certainly a level of spice, but actually not a ton of heat. It was really tasty, though! The rest of our party also enjoyed their meals, whether they were from Japanese or Chinese cuisine. I would definitely go back to Hanami, and it was great to find a delicious Asian restaurant in that area.

Out of all the choices on the takeout menu, I decided to explore the two most popular plates. General Tso's Chicken Dinner Combo: The hot, spicy chicken is chewy on the inside while slightly crunchy on the outside; expect a mild kick. I'm satisfied broccoli was included, but my only critique is that I would have preferred that the vegetable was mixed in with the tangy sauce. Also included with this combo is pork fried rice and wonton soup. The three wontons and the broth were piping hot. The noodles go hand in hand with the soup. It is a win win whether you choose to have them dry or soaked. Boneless Spare Ribs Dinner Combo: The ribs are tender and chewy with a savory taste. For this combo, I explored the white rice and egg roll. This appetizer was filled with cabbage and ground pork. I enjoyed it, but the size of the egg roll could have been slightly larger with a tad bit more pork. Both combos can also be purchased as a lunch special if you arrive between 11:00 AM and 3:00 PM. An adequate amount of seating is available if you decide to dine in. Empire Szechaun is open six days per week; arrive any day except Tuesday. I highly recommend this location if you are on the go and need a quick meal, especially the two popular menu items. #chinesefood #chinesetakeout #generaltsoschicken #bonelessspareribs #eggrolls #wontonsoup #whiterice #porkfriedrice #dinnercombo #foodstagram #localbusiness #chinesebusiness #foodreview #foodstagram #njfoodie
