    Roast Pork Egg Foo Young w/PFR
    Wanimoon R.

    I've been wanting to try this place for a while, so I finally ordered delivery. The delivery time was quoted 50-60 minutes. It came in 59. The food was hot and fresh. It looked great. Eggroll: standard. Nothing great, nothing horrible. It could've used more pork. Wonton Soup: the wontons were great! Thin wrappers and flavorful filling, but the broth was super super bland. Egg Foo Young: very good.....except for the gravy. Super bland. I had to add 2 soy sauce packets and even then, it was missing something. Pork Fried rice: I appreciated the fact that they didn't use yellow rice, but this was bland as well. It was fine since I was eating it with the Egg Foo Young and gravy, but I'd be disappointed it I ordered it on its own. Chinese Donuts: standard. Hard to mess these up. I won't completely rule this place out, but I was a bit disappointed. I see a lot of people like the lo mein and General Tso's/sesame/orange chicken with white rice, so I may give those a try one day. I feel they need to step up their game since there's over 20 Chinese spots within 5 miles (there's about 4-5 in each town).

    I don't Yelp much these days, but this place motivated me, compelled me. After ordering the second time and touring into dishes I EXPECTED to be bad and being amazed I HAD to log in and leave a review. I know you have head people say things like this before, but i'm NOT exaggerating when i say "you will NOT find better Chinese food in North NJ at this price-point within delivery radius of the River Edge, New Milford, Dumont, Ordadel area. Game over. Period. It puts Lotus in Hackensack to shame for less money. Here re some highlights: Dumplings: Made in house, not frozen and fried/steamed like 99.9% of spots (including lotus) Chicken: Not junk meant hidden in excess breading. No 0.0% mysterious "chewies" to be found Beef: (same as above) Order extra spice: They actually MADE it extra spicy, not the typical lazy red-pepper flake sprinkle, or side order of spicy oil. General Tso's: Thinly and tastefully breaded with a slight crisp to the crust (not that nasty, soggy, super thick junk you find at 95% of other spot. GREAT! Even the damn crunchy noodles they give you for the soup tasted home made. I could go on and on. Everything was as good re-heated the next day as it was freshly delivered. I'm an old-school Yelper (before corporate mucked it up) and I don't hype places up. If you live within delivery range of this place you are blessed. Even if I moved a town or two out of range i would consider picking up from here or using an external delivery service. It's that good. Next time Ill take more pictures.. They Deserve it!

    1. General Tso's Chicken (White meat)(Spicy)
    Paolo D.

    I ordered several items: Steamed Seafood dumpling was great. The dough was thin and had great texture. It came with a sauce I felt was only halfway filled. Small Beef with mushroom with small white rice. The beef with mushroom tasted savory. The portion size was smaller compared to sorrounding Chinese delivery restaurants. Other restaurants would've filled it. General tso chicken was dry. Sauce was OK. The chicken was very dry. I have trouble putting a fork through them. Usually the outer part of the chicken is covered with a crispy dough - mine was soggy. Again, container wasn't filled like other nearby restaurants. I ordered it with a medium sized rice - comparatively, other nearby restaurants this would be a small. $16 is too expensive for this general tsDumplingso chicken, and that's before tax, delivery fee, and delivery tip. Other items are also a dollar or three more expensive than nearby restaurants, unfortunately it's one of few open past 10pm

    Quick service. Food is good. Staff is very friendly. The teriyaki (big container) is a very generous portion. I can eat it for 3 meals.

    Hot and Sour & Won Ton
    Kimberly M.

    Finding GOOD Chinese take-out (not just edible) seems to be as probable as winning a game of ring toss. That is- it's a slippery slope- which is why I always find myself debating whether or not to gamble my money on a new business when I could just order from the place I've traveled far and long to find. Sadly for me, Chen's was a let down and I wish I had stuck to what I know. Where Chen's fell short: 1. I ordered *sesame* chicken...but there were no seeds (see picture) 2. The lo mein was too oily 3. The *pork* fried rice had almost no pork, let alone any other vegetables in it 4. Both the lo mein and rice were pretty bland and light in color due to a lack of soy sauce 5. The hot and sour soup "broth" was gloppy and syrupy which made me not want to eat it 6. The won-ton soup had lighter, more delicate dumpling noodles which I rather enjoyed however, there was barely any filling and it also lacked flavor 7. I didn't enjoy the chinese noodle soup crackers which are usually my favorite 8. I called in to order a teriyaki lunch combo according to their menu, but was told they only have teriyaki on a stick Where Chen's succeeds: 1. The staff is friendly 2. My to-go order was ready in no time (exactly the estimated 15 min. they quoted me) and they even followed up with a phone call to notify me it was ready 3. The interior and behind the counter is clean and they have lots of dine-in seating 4. The beef and chicken were tender for the most part, not dry and stringy from over-frying 5. They offer some different options like: Mango Chicken and Shrimp, the Hawaiian Five, Seaweed Salad, Cheesecake Tempura, and Apple Sticks Unfortunately, the good didn't quite outweigh the bad, and for these reasons Chen's has been Chopped.

    "General Tso's Chicken" with brown rice
    Marites C.

    I only order from here when I'm craving the Chinese sugar donuts. I ordered general tso's chicken lunch with brown rice, boneless spare ribs with brown rice (as backup - yes call me fat lol), and Chinese donuts. Might I add that I LOVE general tso's chicken. Their general tso's chicken tastes and looks like orange chicken with a slight kick to it. I wouldn't order it again. The boneless spare ribs are actually good and saucy. The Chinese donuts are nice and airy (yum!) It's a good thing I ordered backup even though the taste from the general tso's made me lose my appetite.

    125. Broccoli with Garlic Sauce(Spicy)
    Tiffany F.

    I ordered from here when my regular Chinese food restaurant was closed because I really wanted Chinese. The food was good. The broccoli with garlic sauce does have a spicy kick to it. The portion sizes were about what I would normally get from my regular place but they are a little more in the expensive side. I would definitely order again because they have a bigger menu.

    Dumplings made fresh!

The crispy pata was perfect, and the sinigang was so sour -- a great soup for the cold weather we had. We were so full but were glad we said yes to dessert. The cassava cake was served warm, it was probably one of the best ones we've had. From the moment we stepped in, we were made to feel like we were home! We also found out that the lady who served us is from the same province as us.

Also, I wanted to add that their restrooms were immaculately clean! It's always a great bonus.

I didn't like it or hate it. It was unremarkable. * Kare-Kare: It didn't taste like traditional Kare-Kare. It looked like Kare-Kare with more of an orange tint, but it lacked the peanut flavor. I could barely taste even a hint of peanut. I wondered if this was how it was made in a different province. In any case, I was very disappointed. * BBQ Pork Skewers: Cooked well with good flavor. * White Rice: Included. It was Filipino white rice cooked in a rice cooker. How does one rate this? I felt it was hit or miss. Some of the dishes were good, some underwhelming. I might try other dishes in the future.

    We had an amazing dining experience at Czen Restaurant and will definitely be back!…read more We started with the Oxtail Sushi appetizer, which was absolutely delicious and a perfect way to begin the meal. For the main courses, I ordered the oxtail with rice, which was a very generous portion and full of flavor. My partner had the salmon with Mandarin glaze and mashed potatoes, and it was outstanding--perfectly cooked and incredibly tasty. For dessert, we enjoyed the fried ice cream with purple sweet potato, which was unique and delicious. Two glasses of shandy wine complemented the meal beautifully. The atmosphere was fantastic, with great music and a lively, festive vibe. The hostess was wonderful--she took the time to chat with us, asked if it was our first visit, and checked whether we were familiar with the cuisine, which made us feel very welcome. Our server was exceptionally kind, attentive, and knowledgeable. He carefully explained the menu and even double-checked details for us to make sure everything was exactly right. Highly recommended for both the food and the outstanding service. We thoroughly enjoyed every part of our experience and look forward to returning soon!

    Father's Day Brunch!…read more Four of us attended for the Father's Day brunch. After being seated I asked the waiter about the free Old Fashioned or Sangria dads were suppose to receive as per their IG post. The waiter tells me that was only for Saturday June 20th but he'll check with management. He comes back and states it was only for the 20th. I pull up the post which states 20th and 21st. He goes back to his manager and they honor it. Their IG post also mentions a surf & turf special for $59 (which is one of the main reasons I chose this restaurant). When I inquired with the waiter he stated it's only available for dinner (this is not mentioned anywhere on the post). Between the 4 of us we had several lobster tails with waffles, 1 person ordered hot honey chicken with waffles, 4 additional lobster tails and several sides of eggs with bacon. 3 waffle orders came out together and everything else came out staggered 20 - 30mins later. We repeatedly had to ask for the rest of the order. A friend had a Cadillac Margarita which was good. I attempted to order one and was told they ran out of Cointreau and Grand Marnier. How do you run out of the main ingredient for a standard margarita at 2pm on a Sunday?! Passion fruit wings along with a few other menu items were not available. All in all I wouldn't return to Czen. Although my waiter was very pleasant doing the best he could and the ambiance was nice, the restaurant was poorly prepared and brunch was poorly executed.

A lady who can eat like a BEAST *insert smiling devil emoji here* So when I get my hands on FRIED CHICKEN, I have to go all in. By all in, I mean... two hands, big bites, meat stripped off the bone, finger-lickin' all in! Bonchon is a popular chain specializing in KOREAN FRIED CHICKEN, with over 450 locations worldwide! It's a casual, no-frills type of dining experience. Drumsticks, wings, bone in, bone out, strips, and sauces galore... Don't want to wing it? They also offer classic Korean dishes like bibimbap, japchae, tteokbokki, and bulgogi. My go to order is a 9 piece box of drumsticks and wings in soy garlic sauce. What I love about Korean fried chicken is that it's double fried, which creates a thin crust with the most satisfying crunch. The batter is light and they don't use heavy breading, so it doesn't have that greasy, oily feel. The sauce gives the skin a sticky, glossy texture packed with savory and garlicky flavors. The drumsticks and wings are a generous size with tender, juicy meat. Gone are the glory days of 50 cent wings. Ignore the rise in costs and just gobble up! Is this the best Korean fried chicken in the area? No! Is this the best Bonchon location? No! But if you're in the Hackensack area, it'll do the job! CLUCK YEAH!!!!
