After a day of pizza and beer in NYC, I had a hankering for some bone-warming fast Chinese, and…read morethis place mostly hit the spot. First the good: This little joint is located in a strip mall and is clean with plenty of private parking. The dude that took my order over the phone, as well as the guy at the counter, were both very polite and professional. My order was correct. The beef & snow peas here are wonderful, with tender meat and crisp tender veggies. It's mild, which is good for the non-spicy eaters, but it's nothing that a little hot chile oil didn't fix. The (fake) fried scallops from the appetizer menu were also nice. Obviously, with such a low price point, you aren't getting actual mollusk. But they had just enough seafood flavor and are great for dipping or even adding to something else. The not-so-good: I get hot & sour soup everywhere I go, and this was neither hot nor sour. I tried to jazz it up with chile oil and some soy sauce to no avail. On a positive note, it's chock full of thinly sliced vegetables and cubed tofu. Further, it was extremely thick, as if someone accidentally added way too much cornstarch. Either way, it was not my jam. I also ordered lobster fried rice thinking that I would get fake (but not bad) lobster, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that they actually use langoustine, which is a small lobster. This is the same lobster that Long John Silver's uses in its Lobster Bites. But the rice was a total fail. It was gummy, separated and without flavor. Bottom line: If I lived here, this would likely be my go-to Chinese takeout joint. Despite a couple of disappointments on my visit, it's obvious that these folks try really hard to please their customers.

The soup was nice, fresh, and seemed to have used a real chicken breast for the base. Came w 2 wontons (seemed home made); little meat but still good. The pork fried rice was flavorless. All I tasted was the oil. Good thing I like hot sauce cause I had to add a lot. The chicken and broccoli was good. The broccoli was perfect just cooked (not soggy) and the chicken was very tender. The sauce itself was pretty good. Not my favorite chicken and broccoli but its up there. Would I come again? Yes but don't expect a lot from this place

Ordered $190 catering order from this place and $460 from an Italian restaurant. Had wait staff set this up and then realized a tray of dumplings was missing. I called them back and they refused to deliver a tray of dumplings. None of my guests had arrived and nothing was eaten. I told them to come and take a look at the food, come and show me where the dumplings were but no. They refused to make it right and started to yell at me. For a tray that must cost them $5.00 to make the situation right they choose to loose a repeat client. If I wanted to steal dumplings I wouldn't have tipped the driver $20 and could have used that money to buy another tray. What a low class cheap owner & place. read more

I don't see me eating anywhere else going forward for Chinese food even though I need to travel a bit

From what we have been able to tell, there are very few good Chinese restaurants in Bergen County,…read morebut we finally found one that we were impressed with. The name of T.S. Ma Chinese Cuisine was certainly unique, but the positive reviews and delicious-looking pictures convinced us to try it for a takeout dinner. The woman that answered the phone was friendly, professional, and a complete joy; we had a reasonably large order and she coordinated it with easy accuracy. When we arrived at the place to pick up our goods, we saw that the restaurant had a spacious room dedicated solely for to-go orders, as well as a modern dining room for those deciding to eat there. The place was spotless and even the takeout area was bright and welcoming. Our ride home consisted of about 20 minutes of driving time, as well as another 20 or so minute stop at the supermarket, but the food was still warm by the time we arrived! We unpacked the sturdy, insulated bag they had provided and were happy to see that our dishes all arrived as requested and in generous portion sizes. We started by sharing a few items, like a quart of the House Special Soup, which included shrimp, white meat chicken, and pork with mixed vegetables in a chicken broth. The strands of pork were a bit chewy, but the chicken and jumbo shrimp were tender. The broth was flavorful, but light on the sodium and better with a dash of black pepper. We also divided up the Mu Shu Chicken with chicken strips, cabbage, and egg that we were to wrap in pancakes with sweet hoisin sauce. The pancakes were fresh and held up even when they were stuffed with the warm filling and heavy sauce. They tasted like they were handmade and not from any sort of package. The actual chicken mixture had a slightly burnt flavor, but was otherwise delightful. The only issue was that there was so much stuffing and only four pancakes. We probably could have used six to eight instead. Lastly, we shared the Chicken Lo Mein, which needed more chicken and some vegetables, as it was mainly noodles. It was richly flavored and not at all greasy, though. We then each had our own entrees. I opted to get something from their "Steamed and Grilled" section of the menu. My Steamed Shrimp came with a wide selection of vegetables, including Chinese cabbage, napa, jicama, broccoli, carrots, string beans, and snow peas. The vegetables were all crispy and fresh, and the shrimp were plump and delicious. I got it with a "light" spicy garlic sauce on the side, which apparently had no cornstarch in it. The sauce was very thin, so I assume that was, indeed, the case, but, despite being heavily wrapped, a good portion of the sauce had leaked out into the bag. I will say that the small drop I tried had a nice heat to it. I also sampled a bite of someone else's same version of the dish that had been sauteed and not steamed, and thought it was spicy and well-cooked. Someone else in our group had ordered the Shrimp with Honey Walnuts, not realizing that the shellfish would be fried and the sauce mayonnaise-based, so she was not thrilled, but that was not the restaurant's fault. However, she did mention that she thought it was bland. Despite her main dish, we all though T.S. Ma Chinese Cuisine did a nice job with our meal. Everything was lightly salted, not too greasy, and with enough flavor to keep it interesting. Plus, the staff even made little bags for each of us that included a fortune cookie, sauce packets, and plastic silverware; it was a very cute touch.

It's one of those spots you could easily drive right past if you weren't looking for it. Almost looks like a house from the outside, but inside it's a cozy, welcoming vibe. We went during lunch and took advantage of their $12.95 specials--great value. I had the basil fried rice with pork, which had a nice level of spice--flavorful and delicious without being overpowering. It came with a spring roll and a lemon tea, which was perfect--not overly sweet. My wife ordered the drunken noodles with chicken and shrimp--loaded with peppers and onions, super flavorful, and cooked just right. She paired it with a Thai iced tea, which was also on point. Food came out quickly, served hot, and the presentation was clean. Nice little touch with the cucumbers served alongside the fried rice. Definitely a spot we'll be coming back to--next time for dinner. They reopen at 4:30, and I've got my eye on those Bangkok wings. Owner was mad cool too.

There is both street parking and a few spots in the private lot in the back of the restaurant. It's a small space, but there are a few tables if you wanted to have a casual meal solo or with another person. The person behind the register was friendly to everyone inside the eatery. He had packed our order and offered napkins and a cup holder. There's a welcoming vibe when you go there. The food was great and I would recommend Thai Cookery if you're in the mood for really good Thai food.
