My boyfriend and I had a great experience at Bobby wongs for lunch. I got the tangerine beef bowl with white rice and it was really good. Beef was tangy spicy (but not too spicy) and crispy and it came out hot and fast. Appreciate the fact that the beef was not chewy or tough They also add these crispy onions on top of their bowls which is a nice touch. My boyfriend got the Cajun pork cutlet bowl over lo mein. You get to choose your base for the bowls which is nice. The lo mein noodles are thicker than the typical lo mein noodles you see at Chinese takeout, these look more like pho. Either way, I tried a bite and they were great and the flavors were there. My boyfriend also loves their soup and the homemade chips are awesome. In terms of ambiance this is more of a daytime spot. Not too many seats. It's very bright inside maybe because there's a lot of plants in there on the wall. It's still nice, just not that dim nighttime ambiance and there aren't a ton of seats . You place your order at the register or they also have a convenient self order kiosk. We will be definitely be back to try everything else on the menu. read more

The food was good here! By far our favorite thing on the menu was the cold ramen noodles. It had a bit of a kick to it, but nothing crazy and delicious peanut sauce. The chicken original and shrimp mild were made well and I loved the bowl the takeout order came in. I was not crazy about the lo mein and brussel sprouts. Not a whole lot of flavor for either. The pork dumplings were great and I wish I ordered 2 orders of them. read more

Crispy chicken bowl with wok rice and tangerine beef and broccoli bowl with wok rice was delicious. We also tried, Lomein, BW French Fry chips topped off with cheesecake wonton for dessert. Everything was fresh and delicious. This was our first time trying Bobby Wong's as a delivery and it won't be our last!!!! Will try dining in too!!!! read more

Overall, i really loved Bobby wongs and would come back in a heartbeat. the decor is so cute, pretty fast service, and love the sauces. we grabbed the fried oreo cheesecake won tongs as dessert. these are messy, but a must get! the shrimp buns were nice too. i wish there were more spice. i got the classic spicy chicken original bowl. personally i dont think either sauce was spicy, but i loved the flavor. the chicken reminded me of a chicken katsu. this is easily sharable or spread out between 2 meals. read more

Fresh, crisp, and different. I liked the mild chicken and the stir fry rice. The bao buns were decent , nothing to rave about really.

I experienced his cooking when he was at Village Gourmet, Rutherford NJ. I so missed the bread dipping oil (sold to customers by the pint if desired in the 1990's), homemade chips, and other dishes, that I researched online only to find the business defunct. 2 weels later I decided to try again---that's how much I craved his "spicy sauce" for bread---and looked up who owned Village Gourmet, learned that Bobby Wong did, and that he now operates a Chinese restaurant under his name out of the same Rutherford location!! Who knew? I emailed him and Jae Wong responded explaining that they still sell their dipping oil but it is sold as "spicy sauce" on the menus. Fast forward he has 3 locations in NJ and 1 was downtown Hawthorne, just 1.5 miles from me!! I just feasted on his recipes including the dipping oil!! Cant rave enough!! The time I spent researching online was worth every minute!! Biggest fan, Katie read more

This is one of those things where I'm truly in the middle of the road with. This restaurant just opened in Hawthorne, so we decided to give it a shot. We ordered online and set the time we wanted it delivered and they were pinpoint accurate on their delivery time. Phenomenal job. I got the Taos Mild Chicken with Wok'd rice. I went with mild over the regular because I was told the regular was way too spicy. I may have to try the regular next time because this was not spicy at all. The chicken itself was very good quality. The sauce it had on it reminded me exactly of an orange sauce. I went with the wok'd rice and I'll be honest; I felt it was very bland. I'm talking plain white rice bland. It did have egg and onions mixed in it but the flavor was just not there. Serving size for the cost was very good. Absolutely more than enough for a lunch or even a dinner meal. If it was a dinner meal, I probably would've added the fries/chips. Quality was there, professionalism was there; it just left me hanging a little on the taste scale. read more

Bobby Wong’s - Taos Chicken with Wok'd Rice - American Near Me - Hawthorne, New Jersey

We've been ordering from Bobby Wing's for a year now. The service and food quality is consistently amazing. I'm not sure if they adjusted the spice level of the" original" or if I've just built a tolerance, but it's perfect. The chicken over yellow rice or lo mein are our go to order. The portions are still 2 meals in 1 for an amazing price. My only gripe is that the dessert wontons are hard to eat. They taste stale once you get to that part of the meal because they have cooled. The flavors are delicious tho! Overall, Bobby Wongs is amazing and we'll be loyal customers forever!! read more

Aye here in December 2023. The food was really great. Crispy Brussels bites and the original chicken. Love their style Brought the food to go but the ambiance was really nice- trendy like an Instagram story read more

This is a pretty good deal for $9 (plus tax). This chicken is a bit spicy and sweet. I'd have liked for there to be some veggies like broccoli or asparagus. There are a couple of slices of peppers. It's pretty filling for the price but if it increases anytime soon, I'll go to the place across the street (I understand that they're different cuisines but it's still chicken with rice). Place was empty when I went but it may be because they're still new and haven't promoted their official opening (despite doing a soft opening last week). They were also out of a few items so plan accordingly and don't order too late. I'll visit again for sure and see if this is a consistent experience. read more

Bobby Wong’s - Taos Chicken with Yellow Rice - American Near Me - Hawthorne, New Jersey

I want to start by saying my order was delivery. It was about a 20 minute drive to my house. The Brussels sprouts were not crispy. I was afraid they would not make it on the drive home. I got each of the buns to try. Beef ones were the best. Got an order of shrimp dumplings as well which was just ok but filled with shrimp. Overall this is a good value place with decent portion sizes and price. read more

Great spot. 1) I got the crispy chicken bowl with the wok rice. It was very good. The portion is very large. 2) I also got the boa buns with beef. Very good and reasonably priced unlike other spots. 3) Very cozy and comfortable atmosphere. read more

I will give them a few passes as they just opened but I wasn't impressed. Most notably, as a person who isn't sensitive to spicy food, this food was uncomfortable to eat. They list three levels of sauce but they didn't ask me when I orders so I assumed it would be "Original". This tasted more like it might have been "Fire". The "French Fries" at $4.25 are BBQ flavored potato chips. . The saffron yellow rice seems misplaced. The chicken was crunchy proper white meat chunks which is about the only positive thing I can say so far. read more

I'll start this review off by saying the employees who work here are extremely friendly, so I feel bad about writing this review. The food here is just lacking in flavor. I read other reviews before placing my order and decided I should probably order the mild chicken since "original" is apparently extremely spicy. Overall, here's the breakdown... * The Portions: great. You get a big bowl with a lot of rice and meat. Definitely an awesome bang for your buck. It's tough to find places that don't break the bank (especially right now). You will DEF not order here and feel short-changed or skimped when it comes to the amount of food you get. * The Cook on the Meat: the meat was cooked/breaded/fried perfectly. No complaints at all. * The Flavor: COMPLETELY lacking. Seriously it's like someone put a sesame chicken flavoring on the chicken but somehow extracted the flavor and left the consistency. I suspect this is because I ordered the mild and assume that the "original" packs more of a punch and flavor altogether (but I'm just assuming). -- final thoughts: if you're going to order here, definitely don't order anything "mild" because trust me, it will leave a LOT to be desired. I'll probably order the original next time so I can give this a completely fair shake but as it stands right now, I'm unimpressed. read more

Great, when they gave the food you want. Since it's a chain, they rely on the ingredients to ship from some central hub. Everything I had was great, but I've often found that my favorites aren't available. Not great, on a menu that only has 12-16 choices. Staff is pleasant, food is excellent, price is right. But step up the inventory. read more

Dont let the two bad reviews here from people who are clueless deter you... Their complaints stemmed from their own lack of knowledge of what they were ordering or from just made assumptions... This place is great! Service: exceptional Portion size: big and plentiful Price: fair and spot on Food: Delicious and fresh every time Highly recommend it! read more

My family loves the food here. We've tried everything on the menu except for dessert and our favorites are the buns (all of them), the chicken with wok`d rice, tofu with lo mein, and the brussels. Vegan options and great drinks! read more

Solid reliable food. Original is fairly spicy, but I like spicy food. Very good ramen noodles.

Excellent food with a little spice. Not your usual Chinese food but very good. As others noted 1 dish certainly feeds 2 people.

Very good new Chinese place, lots of rice and chicken for the cost (about 9$), I couldn't even finish and got to take some back home as leftovers! Lots of other reviews complained mild was too tasteless so I got the original and it tasted amazing, it had some sliced peppers in it as well but wasn't spicy at all, overall great place! Owners are very nice as well, will definitely come back here read more

Very good Whoa you must try the chicken bowl yummy don't sleep they are good. They don't disappoint

I finally tried Bobby Wong's for the first time recently. I got the chicken with white rice. The chicken had a nice kick to it, but it was easy to handle. The rice was cooked PERFECTLY! I know white rice is white rice, but it's so much better when cooked properly and Bobby Wong's nailed it. I called ahead my order and the service was smooth over the phone and super nice in the store. I brought the food home, but the store itself looked really nice and would be fun to sit in with some awesome music playing. My girlfriend and I decided to get some lemonades on the spot and they were made fresh. Fresh is the difference! - so delicious. I highly recommend Bobby Wong's. I'm going back soon! read more

Great food ! great customer service and the order was just as I ordered it ! Try the orangeade it's delicious !!!! read more

Great food a lot for the buck you can't go wrong here service is good all food cooked to order

Good inexpensive takeout. Not many places where you can pick up a good takeout dish at this price so quickly nowadays.

the food is good. i read the reviews before i tried and here is my take. i got the chicken with wok'd rice. chicken is flavorful tangy sweet and a hint of spiciness despite ordering the non mild one. but i did not mind others may. the rice itself is super bland and this is where i think the negative reviews are coming from. being taiwnese im fine with this as our cuisine is like this. however most people who get asian take out is used to pork fried rice. solid 3 stars. read more

This place rocks! Loved the original chicken , perfect spicy level for me , chicken was excellent tender white meat with a crispy coating. Very good sized portions and excellent value for the money. I highly recommend read more

Love this place. Best for quick and cheap eats. Service is great. And the food makes me feel like my mom is cooking for me again. LOL.

Great food. A different twist on traditional Asian. Portions were generous and the service was fast.

This spot is great, small little place in Hawthorne, i wouldn't recommend dining in due to small space, but everything was amazing. The chicken was a little spicy, the wok'd rice reminds me of hibachi fried rice without the soy sauce, but still delicious. NY cheese cake WongTongs were great! The only down side I saw while I was there was the worker in the back was preparing food without gloves on. But other than that this is a must stop and try place. Looking forward to coming back next week! read more

Don't assume this place is just another chinese takeout spot. Bobby Wong's takes things to another level, while being cheaper and leaving you more full than any place around. Everything on the small menu is intricate and delicious, and yes, I've tried it all. HIGHLY recommend. read more

the service here is so slow. and expected times of 20 minutes end up being 40-60 minutes. was at work and had to rush back and fourth multiple times just to wait longer and longer. food is good though but wouldn't recommend if in any sort of rush read more
