Came back for dinner and found a few new dishes we really liked…read more The Kung Pao tofu was the standout. The outside had a light crisp texture, while the tofu inside was very soft. The sauce, peanuts, and scallions all worked really well together. The steamed egg with clams was also excellent and definitely best eaten hot. The chicken fried rice was another favorite. It was flavorful without being greasy, the chicken was tender, and the cabbage gave it a nice texture. We also ordered the dry fried string beans again, and they were just as good as last time. The tomato beef stew had a rich tomato flavor and very tender beef. It wasn't my personal favorite, but my husband loved it. The restaurant has a polished but comfortable atmosphere and works well for group dinners, family meals, or a date.

Service was nice and they gave good recommendations and advice on some menu items. The cucumber salad was by far the best thing I ate. I wasn't able to get a picture of the soup dumplings but I wasn't really a fan. The fried rice was good but tasted like I was missing something unsure, it's more of a personal preference. The caramel flan thing I got for dessert was good but I most likely wouldn't get it again. I'd like to come back and try something different.

Snow pea leaves are cooked beautifully. Fresh and seasoned well. XLB is not bad. Fried rice is good but I wish it has more shrimps. Pineapple beer (alcohol free) is surprisingly good. Nice pick up with all the heavy flavors. The restaurant is clean and modern. Reservation is highly recommended. The service is great. We went in as a big group. All items came out within 15mins. We ran out of space to place our dishes.

I had come across Jiang Nan a while back while looking for restaurants in Jersey City. Despite…read moretheir having several locations around the tri-state area, I had never heard of the place. However, it looked interesting and had amazing reviews, so I bookmarked it for the future. Well, we made it there recently and had a mostly enjoyable experience. We were able to secure a same-day reservation on a Saturday evening, so that was a good start. Once we arrived, we were pleasantly greeted and taken to one of the two empty tables available. The place was completely packed, and the food smelled and looked phenomenal. The vibe was casual, but full of diners on a mission to tease their palates with real Szechuan delights. The menu was very lengthy, so it was difficult to decide what to get. While we were trying to figure that out, we received a small bowl of a cabbage slaw that also included radishes, carrots, and diced chilis, all drizzled with a bright red chili oil. It was crisp, fresh, and packed the perfect amount of heat without being overwhelming. I distractedly picked away at the cabbage slices with my chopsticks while I continued to weigh my dinner options. I wound up going with their Braised Noodles with "Stir-Fried" Chicken and Eggplant in Spicy Garlic Sauce. I used quotation marks around the preparation method, because when the dish arrived, the chicken was actually heavily breaded and deep-fried. I was not at all happy about that, but I figured I would try and make the best of the situation. The lo-mein noodles were soft, tender, and might have even been homemade. They were perfect! The included eggplant was on the mushy side, but still tasty. However, the sauce was way too sweet. It was more like a sweet and sour sauce with no garlic perceptible, and it was not presented at the medium spice level I had requested. As I write that assessment, I am sure you are wondering why I gave the place 4 stars. Well, my dining companion also had those fantastic Braised Noodles, but with real Stir-Fried Beef and Scallions. Instead of a heavy, gummy sauce like mine had, this one was in more a light broth with a touch of sweetness from what I think was Chinese Five-Spice. Plus, the included meat was lean and had been thinly sliced. It was unique and delicious. I had also been impressed with the efficiency of the service, especially given how busy they were. I had high hopes for Jiang Nan and would not say that it completely disappointed; I think I just ordered incorrectly for my tastes, though the menu had been deceiving regarding the preparation. I would like to go back to the Szechuan spot and try either their famed Peking duck or some of their more unusual dishes like Chicken and Black Truffle Soup Dumplings.

Authentic Chinese flavor. Generous portion, very good value. Friendly and efficient service…read more My fiend and I happened to go through JC and had a very late lunch here today. Every dish tastes good, especially their beef dishes & tomato egg stir-fry. Highly recommended.

We've lived up the block from this place for 3 years and finally sat down to dine in. It was empty…read moreand the girl serving us was the only one there and didn't really provide us with customer service. We had to wait 15 minutes just for our sodas. The dishes are very unique in cultural sourcing - it's not what you expect of a regular Chinese restaurant. The servings are HUGE and good for 2 servings. The ambiance is not that great even though there's a big space and there was a lot of junk sitting around the place like extra stock of drinks and boxes all over the place. I don't think people really eat-in here. When I did takeout, it was still not worth the price of other similar restaurants in the area. Also this place doesn't have combinations sold together -- you have to buy rice on the side for EVERY dish which is not a traditional way to serve each dish in general. The prices here are not worth trying it - way overpriced and overcharged! Should be more affordable since we do not get the rice with the combination plates.

Pickled Cabbage & Chili, and Sichuan Spicy Cold Jelly. The Fish Fillet soup was definitely the standout. I absolutely love this dish and order it each time we go for Sichuan food. I really enjoyed the way 62 Secret Kitchen makes this soup. The broth was nice and tangy but the pickles still retained some of their kick. The fish was super tender and the soup was loaded with meat and vegetables. I also really loved the Black Truffle Fried Rice. The beef was really tender and the rice was so flavorful and comforting. I just wish the truffle flavor came through a little more! The Spicy Cold Jelly was just okay for me. It was brutally spicy without much other flavor. The Garlic Morning Glory were super yummy and not too greasy. The leaves were still perfectly crunchy. The inside of the restaurant is so nice and sunlit in the early evening. We sat by the window, which I found really romantic. I loved looking out to the sidewalk and watching people pass by. I also think the service was top notch. Overall we had an amazing experience at 62 Secret Kitchen and would definitely return.

This place gets very busy. However, we were seated pretty quickly. The food is pretty good. The…read moresoup dumplings were pretty good but they were all on top of each other causing them to rip when trying to take a dumpling out. There's only 4 pieces in a tray, there's no reasons why they couldn't space them out. BUT this is my reason for the low score. My party of 3 was seated, we ordered our food. Then 4 tables by us were seated and ordered their food after us [parties of 2/3]. Those 4 tables all got their food before we did. Huh? Not only that, when we just finish taking the last bite of our food they were quick to come to us asking us to pay the bill. So they made us wait longer for our food and quick to make us leave? I then later noticed that the owner was wanting our table quick because some "VIP" came in to dine. They could also use more staff waiting tables rather than 1 person holding down the front of the restaurant AND sitting people. I don't know if I'll ever come back here. Or maybe just come when it's less busy. Or just come for takeout. I wish the customer experience and service was better. Otherwise, this would easily get 5 stars.

The Good: The concept is cool, and you can tell they put a lot of thought into unconventional dumpling stuffings and unique flavor pairings. The Bad: For a casual dumpling and noodle joint, it ends up being surprisingly pricey. Also, some of the fusion flavor profiles can be a bit hit-or-miss depending on your palate--not every creative combo quite hits the mark. It's a fun spot to check out if you're looking to try something different, but given the price and mixed flavor results, I'm probably in no rush to make it a regular rotation.

My wife did a stir fried vegan noodle bowl (with gluten free noodles); i did an extra spicy chicken noodle bowl. Both had a great depth of flavor and a sauce that clings to the noodles. The options of noodle width (extra thin to extra wide), spice level, and ingredient substitutions make it a great choice for takeout / delivery. And having lamb and crawfish choices make Dun Huang stand out
