4 Stars - Tsung Hing House Tsung Hing House offers a step above the typical takeout spot, with a slightly upscale feel and a proper dining room that makes it comfortable to sit and enjoy your meal. We ordered the Happy Family dish, which was excellent--fresh, flavorful, and well put together. The ribs were good, though a little too wet for my taste. The rice was spot on, and the service was attentive and friendly throughout. Overall, a very solid experience with quality food and a nicer atmosphere than most Chinese restaurants. Definitely worth a visit. read more

Food is good. We have been here quite a few times. Never had a bad experience. Service is quick. Place is clean. If you dine in, it's usually not crowded read more

Ordered (2) dishes and egg role. Pork fried rice and pork flat noodles. Both were correct on reciept, but both were made with chicken. I suspect they ran out of pork and made the Substitute without asking. Little to no way 2/2 were "mistakes" Spent $31 on 2 incorrect dishes and one egg roll. Also, flavor was lacking compared to other places and previous experiences at this one. Do better. read more

People recommended this place so we took a ride for lunch. Food- I often judge Chinese food by the ribs- soup-egg rolls The ribs were like nothing I've ever seen in a Chinese restaurant. Roughly 2-3 inches long and there was tough meat below the bone. Seems like they just poured sauce on some boiled ribs. The soup had zero taste with two small wontons that weren't too bad. The egg rolls seemed like something from the frozen food department at the supermarket. Lunch special you had a choice- either soup or egg roll. I had roast pork chow mein with plain fried rice- it looks more like brown rice, no egg-scallions-pork mixed in. The service was fine as we were the only people in the restaurant. BTW if you want tea you have to ask for it. Server was a nice guy but the place has zero ambiance. read more

Ordered some take out from this local Chinese place. We ordered the food through the phone and pickup was for 40 minutes later (our order was big). Everything we ate was what you would expect of American Chinese food - salty, garlicky, and the subtle hint of the wok. The fried rice was good compared to others I've had in the area and they included mushrooms in the rice. The one downfall of this place is the spicy food not being spicy at all. One couldn't tell at all that this item on the menu had a pepper symbol by its name. Overall, we enjoyed all the dishes we got but the crispy shrimp which looks Cheeto dusted and had a strong gingery taste. read more

I have never dined in, only done takeout. and the food is always packaged fresh so it's still hot when we get home. highly recommend read more

6 years I stayed away from this place because of bad reviews. Tonight I thought of trying it since it's still open all this time. Just ordered the beef and broccoli, chicken fried rice, diced chicken with cashew nuts and an egg roll. The prices are more expensive than my normal Chinese restaurant and they charge a $5 delivery fee without mentioning to me - then I was asked if I want to leave a tip for the driver. Not nice. I had to pry the information out of her. And on top of all that, they charge a fee to use your credit card. The food came quick, the only highlight of this adventure. Food was not good at all. Chicken tasted like beef, all the same texture (rubbery), no real flavor of sauces, barely any chicken in the fried rice, the cashew nut meal was tasteless and dry all around. I guess I can agree with the rest of these negative reviews that this place was not good at all. Food went straight in the garbage and $55 straight in the toilet. read more

Unless ownership has changed, I think I know who owns this restaurant, as I think I went to school with the family's daughter. Of course, I digress. Honestly, I was satisfied with the food here. Everything tasted fresh and had great flavor. The prices are pretty fair as well. It also helps that they deliver in the area so you do not have to get out and get this as soon as you get home from work. The portion sizes are also quite generous as you will definitely have leftovers. I know when my mother and I ordered here, we did. I would place another takeout order here on the occasion that going to Pink Lotus is not in the cards. read more

The food was vile, service so so. I would avoid this place like the plague. I do know how they could be in business this long. Also the interior is dingy. read more

Me my boyfriend and my family come here and the food is so good! Everything is big enough to share, and the food tastes fresh.

I've been searching for a good Chinese takeout place in this area and I think I've found what I've been looking for. We dined in and ordered tangerine chicken, veg lo mein, and Singapore Mei fun noodles. If you dine in, you get complimentary wonton chips. Be aware. They are addictive. The tangerine chicken packs a punch! Very tasty, crispy and you definitely get the flavor. The lo mein was really fresh, not greasy, seasoned with. My Singapore Mei fun noodles we're ordered with fried tofu instead of meat and they were well done and full of flavor. I was pretty happy with my experience. The prices were fair, about what you would expect from a Chinese restaurant. The service was friendly and fast. It doesn't get too packed on a weeknight but it's still busy. The only downside I would say is that there aren't a ton of vegetarian options. read more

I ordered bean curd with black bean sauce for a vegetarian and it was filled with pork. that should be listed under pork not vegetables.

The food here was good. Not amazing but good. Lunch with a soda was only $10 which is also good. The place was clean overall but a bit worn down. Service was good and fast. read more

Really appreciate good, fast Chinese food. I drive 20 minutes out of my way, and past dozens of other places to come here. Quality and quantity is also great. Open on Christmas, and despite a wait, they were well organized and always professional. My go to place! read more

Tung Hsing House - bland fried rice with little in the way of ingredients - Chinese Near Me - Spotswood, New Jersey

probably some of the best service you'll ever get. It was literally flooding and they still served us. food is so awesome definitely a great spot. read more

I'm afraid this will be our last visit to this restaurant. With the original owners, we were here at least once/week. For years after the original owners left, we would come occasionally. It seems that with every year that passes the food becomes more disappointing. We ordered pickup and got a couple of basic dishes and some soup. The best way to describe the food was watery. Everything tasted watered down. Like they made the soup and threw in some water to stretch it out. Same with the chicken dish. And the fried rice actually had a little heat in it!? That is not the norm and made it inedible for a member. Sadly the quality and the taste of the food had gone way downhill. In addition, the restaurant itself is kind of a mess, there is stuff piled everywhere. We officially recycled our menus which is sad because we've been coming here for 30+ years. read more

This is probably the best Chinese takeout restaurant in central Jersey. My family has been ordering food from Tung Hsing House ever since I was a kid (I am now 26)... and I will still make an effort to eat here when back in town. The food still is delicious after all these years. The meat in the dishes tastes authentic, real, and juicy rather than the normal stringy, rubbery meat you get from most asian takeout spots. For entrees, I would strongly suggest trying some broccoli + meat in garlic sauce dish. The broccoli here is amazing. Never thought I could be so excited to eat broccoli... until I tried Tung Hsing House. Standard Chinese takeout foods are delicious as well. They make an amazing General Tso's chicken, lo mein, fried rice, etc. Definitely give this spot a try if you're in the area. read more

There are nice food, the service is better than other restaurants I seem before, and the whole restaurant is pretty chill for me.

Not very good flavor. Was just okay. Not friendly at all. Can't recommend at all service left a lot to desire

Use to be the place to order Chinese food. Tried it again Unfortunately just average. Use to be the best around

This is our go to place for Chinese food and soup. Never dined in always carried out. Our favorites are the house special soup (it's amazing!), veg fried rice and schezwan chicken. read more

I ordered contactless delivery...which the driver was supposed to notify me when food was delivered - however no one called or texted to let me know my contactless delivery was on my porch. it sat there for 30 min and was cold. What did I Pay $66 for? read more

The apps we got were not good. The spare ribs were dry and overcooked. The egg roll was over fried, while the crab rangoon were under fried. The steamed dumplings were mushy and doughy, and the dipping sauce was oddly spicy. The scallion pancakes were too thick. Wife thought the chicken and garlic had too much celery. However, the veg lo mein was good and the general tsao's was absolutely FANTASTIC. Like, this is my favorite dish I order everywhere and this was the best I've ever had good. It's just too bad everything else was terrible. Bummer. read more

I order takeout from here all the time. Food is delicious and good portions. Dine-in Ambiance was also comfortable and clean. Service is always friendly and welcoming. When I crave Chinese food this is my spot! read more

Have been coming here for years. Foods fresh and tastes great. I would recommend eating here

Went back last night with my wife and my daughter. The owner in the front and the staff all made comments about how big my daughter is getting. They also told us to say "hi" to my in-laws for them; they are just too nice! The food was amazing (AS ALWAYS) and prices were right (under $30 for two adults and a 3yr old that eats like one). We were in the Piscataway/S. Plainfield area and wanted chinese food. So yes, we drove the 15mi to Tung Hsing. read more

Went here for lunch special and got chicken and broccoli with chicken soup. It was the most rubbery garbage chicken I have ever eaten. The broccoli was sorta fresh but the freaking chicken was terrible. I went here a year ago and it was great. Idk why virus is excuse for inedible rubber food read more

Awesome Chinese restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious! The sesame chicken was one of the best sesame chickens, I've ever had! Really tangy, and the chicken was nice and tender! The spring rolls we got as an appetizer were nice and crispy, and had a great deal of vegetables! The service was very good as well, fast and friendly! The place is a bit run down, but the food is definitely what makes this place turn upside down! It's an amazing Chinese restaurant! Highly recommend! read more

Incredible food! Some of the best Chinese I've ever had. The only problem is you need to order at 1pm if you're expecting to have their food by dinner time. Not sure if they're always short staffed or what the problem is, but you can easily wait for 3+ hours for take out. They don't deliver but you'd probably have to order the day before for delivery if they did offer it lol read more

Friends of mine rave about this place and come here every opportunity they get. I thought it was OK and yes I would go back if in the area. Not a major endorsement by me but it happens to be a very friendly and nice looking place. Service was very friendly and very good. The ribs were delicious. My concerns were with the two main courses we shared. I thought that the Moo Shu Pork was too watery and that the vegetables in the Shrimp with Garlic Sauce were very undercooked. The shrimp themselves, however were tasty. read more

New ownership but food was fantastic. Take out. Fried rice was the best I've ever tasted. Beef with snow pea pods and dumplings to die for. We had ordered a lot more ($50) and everyone agreed. Would have given five stars but they didn't throw in any noodles which the previous owners had. Okay. Last week we ordered pretty much the same. All was good until we opened the fried rice with pork. Smelled and tasted like fish! Don't know for sure why but hesitant on our thoughts to write. Trashed it anyhow. Called back and spoke to a lady and was told she'd let the chef know. We won't be ordering again. read more

They still don't have indoor dining and that's not acceptable! They also have the worst chinese food...I wouldn't recommend this place!

Good take out spot. Service is great, food always comes out quickly. Tso and Sesame chicken is good and so is the fried rice. Not too much a fan of the dumplings they're too doughy read more

The best hot and sour soup I've ever had. We order from here and pick up since they do not deliver. We've tried various restaurants in the area and this one is the best one. Prices are steep but lunch specials are decent. Highly recommend. read more

Great place. The place used to be owned by a lovely couple for 20+ years. Since then theve switched owners a few times. But for the past while they've finally settled on a great couple who have been able to keep the standards of the old. Great food. Great space. Lovely staff. Recommended: fried dumplings, shrimp toast, sesame shrimp/chicken, and scallion pancakes read more

Four stars may seem a little high for what is essentially your classic Americanized Chinese fare. But, what can I tell you? I'm a fan! Unlike the long tail of awful Chinese joints across New Jersey, the Tung Hsing House consistently cranks out decent, if completely generic, Chinese fare. Set your expectations accordingly, and you won't be disappointed, especially if you have a hankering for the kind of Chinese food you might have experienced as a child of the 70s. In that regard, Tung Hsing House is a portal to another time; (for me) a time when my parents would take my little brother and I on the bus as kids for a trip into the City. Up and down dirty, dingy Canal Street we'd traverse; my mother dragging us in and out of creepy pushcart malls to shop for cheap goods; my father popping in and out of the closest OTB to put a bet down on a race. Eventually we'd make our way over to Mott Street, down to it's dirtiest, narrowest corner, to a non-descript building where we'd ascend up a long, steep staircase into Kao Wah Restaurant. Inside was a large room full of round tables, filled to the brim with both local Chinese folk and goofy tourists like us; everyone gorging themselves on Peking Duck, Egg Foo Young, Chop Suey, and other types of classics that have since disappeared in favor of today's more uppity "Asian fusion" menus. My brother and I didn't particularly like these trips any more than we liked Chinese food, save for the paper Polynesian umbrella we'd get in our Cokes, and of course, the super greasy fried noodles that would come to the table when you would first sit down. But this was our family tradition, and my memories of it are still fond to this day. And that's why I have a special place in my heart for the Tung Hsing House. The Tung Hsing House, in many ways, brings me back to the days of dining in Kao Wah in the early 80s. The noodles are exactly the same. The tea comes in that same flimsy, metal pot; served in those same handle-less cups that you can never pick up because the tea is so damn hot. Duck sauce, mustard, egg rolls, wanton soup, and dumplings are all made precisely to the specification that made Americanized Chinese food so popular in the 70s and 80s. Classic dishes like Moo Shu Pork, General Tso's Chicken, and Shredded Beef in Garlic Sauce are all exactly as I remember them as a kid. Don't expect anything fancy or out of the ordinary. Don't expect to be blown away by anything groundbreaking or standout. Don't expect to not have to make a B-line for the toilet an hour later. You know what to expect when you come here. The only thing that might surprise you is how good the ordinary can be when it is perfectly executed in the hands of a capable chef. That's what's going on here at the Tung Hsing House. This place has been an anchor in East Brunswick for as long as I can remember, and I first moved here in 1978. Maybe that's why they've been able to keep the wormhole to 1970's Chinatown open for so long. Whatever the case, they're obviously doing something right. The owners and servers are all very friendly and seem to have strong bonds with their customers. And the customers always seem to leave with a smile on their face. And in my opinion, that's worthy of a 4-star rating. read more

Three things: Brown rice, white meat, and no MSG. But that's for later. Went to Shoprite to get some stuff, and was in the mood for some Chinese food. From the outside, this place might look like every other chinese take-out place you know, but once you enter the doors at the front, you're welcomed into a woody, artsy interior that heightens your expectations instantly. I've lived in the area for over a decade, and never even thought to look in. However, this place seems to be a local favorite - there's a wall filled with images of babies and postcards from Beijing, sent by customers of this little establishment. The menu seems pretty standard, but if you look on the wall at their specials, chances are you'll find some little gem, like fried soft-shell crabs, whole fish, or roast duck. The soft-shell crab was great, and all of their sauces are clearly made by an experienced chef. Their General Tso's chicken was very good as well, and they only use breast meat for their sweet and sour chicken, a definite luxury. The hot and sour soup was above par, with just the right amount of pepper and vinegar. Lastly, this place definitely caters to the new healthy trend of eating, with brown rice (even fried brown rice, which tastes a lot healthier than normal fried rice, though I'm sure it's just as bad) and many (all?) of their dishes lacking MSG. I didn't bother asking, but none of the dishes I ordered had any. Check this place out; it is everything you would expect in a standard chinese place, and much more. read more
