Excellent take out Chinese cuisine from a local place in a strip mall in ewing NJ. Love the Hong Kong style noodles with chicken, hot and sour soup, general tso's, king pao, steamed dumplings and many other standard take out dishes. The food is always solid. If you are expecting New York or San Francisco Chinatown, then you should reset your expectations as that is not a fair standard to set. The portions are generous and food is tasty. I'm a decade plus customer. Let me tell you, this place blows away many of the strip mall Chinese restaurants I went to in the Bay Area when I lived there recently. Sure, every now and then something could have been off, but the majority of the time, this place delivers. You can dine in, which is fine, but we mostly take it to go. I believe if your order exceeds a certain amount, you can have a free 2L or other item for free. The staff are great. The owners are wonderful and if the lady owner recognizes you as a return customer, she is very welcoming. Four stars is a great rating as I hold a very high standard. I wish they offered pineapple fried rice and onion cakes. But I suppose you can't have it all read more

When I went into the Fu Wah restaurant as Asian American I expected the food to be excellent. From the over stocked sodas by the fridge and the kids of the owners in the kitchen helping it looks like it would be the best Asian food ever. However as I went into the restaurant at 5:30 on a Monday the restaurant was completely empty. As I looked at the menu (shown on picture 3&4) it was all in English and was far too large. The menu being only in English is not a bad thing but however it is a indication of how the food will be. I ordered a hot and spicy beef combo plate that comes with a egg roll and pork fried rice and it took around 5-10 minutes for it to come out (relatively fast). The meal it's self was just ok. What really stood out was the pork fried rice. It was fragrant and fluffy full of flavor. The hot and spicy beef was packed with vegetables (onions a little under cooked but I enjoyed them) but was also just salty and was not spicy at all. And the egg roll was stale and was like it was re-deep fried. Overall I would come back to Fu Wah. Even thought I thought the food was mediocre I feel like the pork fried rice was to die for and for the price it was not too bad. read more

Don't get the negative reviews on here, at all. Many are years old, so maybe that's it. We live down the shore, where it is VERY difficult to get decent Chinese food. We ordered from Fu Wah during a visit with my Niece in Lawrenceville. Absolutely everything we ordered was 5-star delicious. I had chicken with broccoli combo w/fried rice & eggroll. It was cooked perfectly, chicken and broccoli were both tender and tasty, just the right amount of sauce. The eggroll was probably the best I've had in 20 years - not greasy and excellent filling. Fried wontons and dumplings were on point, a solid 9 for both. My husband loved his General Tso's and the others enjoyed their food as well. We will absolutely return to this restaurant. Outstanding! read more

Ordered from here on door dash- it was made and picked up in like ten minutes. Food was great, nice and hot when it got here- large portions. We ordered general tso's bean curd, chicken lo mein, egg roll and a shrimp roll. They adhered to our special order requests, which was awesome. We asked for broccoli on the side instead of in the bean curd, only onions on the chicken lo mein and extra spicey bean curd. We noticed they used more chicken in the lo mein then most places- and it was waaaaay less greasy then other places. Flavor was nice and light- not overpowered with soy. Bean curd was smaller pieces than many other places- fried pretty well done ( which I like ) and wasn't drowning in sauce. And it's the only place that actually made it kinda spicey when asked. Egg rolls and shrimp roll were both greasy- but otherwise good. I'm super pleased with this place and will absolutely be ordering from here again. I finally found our Chinese food spot! read more

I was looking for a new Chinese restaurant. Where we have been going has clearly lowered their standards. I enjoyed everything that I ordered. The food was fresh, not overcooked, the soup was flavorful, and the Pork Fried rice was fluffy. Service was neat and timely. Great choice for you. read more

Fu Wah pre-pandemic was an ok place ... dependable to order a family dinner ... everything was hot fresh clean and exactly as described ... during the pandemic I tried to patronize them ... but it never bounced back ... read more

Fu Wah (Happy Children) is a small Chinese shop in an old strip center on Olden Avenue Extension, Ewing, NJ. It has the advantage of 8 booths/tables for the eat in crowd, in addition to a brisk take out business. The whole family pitches in during summer. Mom took my order at the front counter. Dad woked it up in the kitchen, and young son served me with a spirited, "Enjoy your lunch." I would have if the hot and sour soup did not have a large lump of pork fat below the surface, and the sesame chicken wasn't all dark meat with little sauce to stir into the yellow dyed fried rice. Get the picture? Not the greatest effort by these happy children. read more

The food was delivered quickly. The egg rolls were burnt, which I had never seen before. The rice smelled a little funny like the oil it was cooked in was old. Not quite sure what the problem was but I ate very little because it just didn't seem right. Finally it all came up and I was sick as a dog. Never again. I gave two stars because of fast delivery. read more

Recently ordered from here since I wasn't impressed with last place I ordered from (Tan May on Olden Ave). Fu Wah was just as expected. Fast, fresh, hot and delicious. Nothing special about the food, just your typical Chinese food take out / delivery menu and services. Food came with noodles and fortune cookies (the last place [Tan May] DID NOT!) Would definitely order here again and recommend it to locals. read more

Ordered from here plenty over the last year. Food comes quickly and its good, not gross, not amazing. This time they messed up my order. The thing i had my taste buds all excited for was not there. I called in to notify them & two people LITERALLY ARGUED WITH ME for like 3 minutes, insisting i "check again" because "it's in there". The bag had been emptied all containers checked. Not there. This was SO RUDE.. Im totally turned off now. Would it kill you to apologize and offer some small compensation like..idk.. the thing you forgot!?! Sheesh..what happened to customer service? Its ok.. This was just the push i needed to stop eating garbage food. I'll be making my own crispy saucy chicken & such from now on. Thanks! Byeeee read more

Food quantity was huge!!! But lacked in taste. Had to add Sriracha to augment the taste. Also gave me upset stomach!!! Cheese steak egg rolls were really good. read more

So I work fairly close to this Chinese spot and I order from them often considering it's convenience. Also, I reallllly love their egg drop soup BUT when I ordered a lunch special today I asked the lady (who is VERY rude by the way,) if I can have crunchies with my soup and she said no that it would be extra because I didn't order a large. It was .50 cents more for them and because I had my credit card I couldn't get them. So stingy! she could have given me the small pack of crunchies there wasn't anyone in the restaurant or anything but whatever I just walked out. I ordered the sesame chicken and it was hard and dry and also I order fried rice not pork fried rice. Very agitated this time and I'm not sure if I will be ordering from them again considering I'm also tying this while on the toilet from a massive stomach ache after eating that. read more

Coming here since I was little. Always been a solid spot for dumplings, fried wontons, lo mein, and combination platters.

Good family value meal and delicious hot and sour soup. All other items were ok nothing to brag of. Sad No 1 China doesn't offer family value menus. read more

I am a huge fan of General Tso's chicken.. really any fried chicken. :) But more often than not, Fu Wah seems to completely overcook it. Maybe it's being re-cooked over and over again, but it is super chewy, bordering on hard. And everything that is fried is super greasy; I mean, greasier than it should be. So my recommendation is stay away from fried. Even the non-fried stuff isn't great, but at least it's not bad. The egg drop soup is decent. I wish it were better because they are close and fast to deliver. read more

They constantly get orders wrong in my case. then it took another hour before they redelivered. driver demanded old food first. I told him to keep it. Done ordering from Fuwah read more

Not from the area but used doordash to order some food. Decently priced for what you get. Noodles don't taste like much of anything. Chicken is pretty good, kind of has a spice to it. Rice also has little flavor. read more

Fu Wah Chinese - Lo Mein and general tso chicken - Chinese Near Me - Trenton, New Jersey

They suck. Half the time they would send the wrong item (son would order a boneless spare rib combo, got the one with the bones); this time they didn't send one of our meals. I called, and they tried to blame the delivery service, but gave it away that they knew they screwed up by saying they already refunded the cost of my meal. Uh, why would you refund if you didn't know you'd left something off? Then said they'd bring me what I ordered, but I'd have to pay cash, and then never showed up. Never using them again. read more

Gross. Just gross. Food is horrible. Don't waste your money. Ordered from here because they were open late... Never never again. read more

To put it nicely, food was . No flavor and no seasoning. The only thing I liked was the price. But I guess you got what you payed for.

I don't know about all the other reviews here, but I have been ordering take out from Fu Wah for at least 10 years. It is my favorite Chinese place in and between Yardley, PA and Princeton, NJ. Always very good. read more

Wish I never gave a dollar to this place. The people was very rude and didn't deserve any tip I gave them. Definitely won't ever order from them. Lost a customer for life. read more

I ordered a couple dishes as delivery. The food was delivered in roughly an hour, and overall was very good. The vegetables were fresh and crisp. I had a couple chicken dishes and duck. The crab rangoon was also crisp and properly cooked. Based on my first experience i would definitely order again. Thank you Fu Wah! read more

No. First time ordering and the egg roll and rice were fine but the chicken I ordered literally smelled like cigarettes. I can't explain it, but it went in the trash without being tried. Terrible! read more

May be main chef was resting when I order chicken with broccoli. No taste period. Really disappointed.

Prices are very reasonable...and I know why! Fried won tons were rocks. Lo mein was dry and thankfully only one of us has a shellfish issue because there were shrimp in the chicken lo mein! Egg drop soup was good but the wonton soup was similar to hot water. Continuing our search for a good Chinese place. read more

No, just isn't good Chinese food. How bad can you mess up fried rice? They figured that one out...my dog wouldn't even eat it. General Tso's - just gross. Not to mention delivery via grub hub was 1 hour past the expected delivery window. :-( read more

Generally speaking Fu Wah is a good place to go when you want Chinese take out. The people are very nice and the food is always prepared quickly and it is usually good. However I will not be going back! There was a rock in my takeout order! I discovered it the day afterwards when I was eating the leftovers. I did not call to complain because it was too far after the fact and I ate most of the meal so I wouldn't ask them to make me a other one. I am instead writing this review to caution future customers. I feel bad because the people are very nice and I have always been satisfied in the past, but I will not be going back because I do not want to experience biting into a rock again! I gave them 2 stars because of my positive experience in the past and my hope that the rock in my food was a one time mistake - it's worth checking out but proceed with caution. read more

So far I've read 3 negative comments about this place on Facebook. I used to be a regular customer when I lived in Trenton but now I'm afraid to try again. I certainly don't want to risk eating a bug or a fingernail...yuck!! read more

The food here is seriously AWFUL. Tasteless, unless grease has a flavor. I have tried. Really tried. I just threw it all away today.

Ordered 3 platters of Generals Tso Chicken and everyone said the same thing. It wasn't good! I was hoping for the food to be good since they deliver. We will not be ordering from them again. read more

I had a problem with order which was not fixed. Then when my food came the first item I ordered steamed dumplings, was poorly made cause it was broken and falling apart. The second item crab rice was made with imitation crab meat which was not told to me on the menu cause I wouldn't of ordered it! The delivery was fast and the driver had courtesy! I will probably order again but not those two items listed. read more

The food is good!! The delivery guy forgot my tea nd he seem mean for some reason but they sent someone back to bring the tea me my husband nd I ordered from them a few times nd it's been good every time even though they're hella greasy #CaliGirl nd Chinese food is fast nd good in California but I will say their food is good nd really great service read more

I am a huge Chinese Food fanatic and was very excited for this meal. We usually order from Tan May, but they were not answering the telephone. All I ordered was chicken lomein and sweet and sour chicken. I really hate to write a bad review, but after my first bite of lomein and chicken, the noodles tasted like plastic/rubber and the chicken tasted like cinnamon. After the first bite, I continued to taste the plastic/rubber/cinnamon taste. It was very unusual and did not taste like any lomein or chicken I have ever eaten. Other than that, we ordered online and it was done quite fast and the prices are decent. I will not be ordering from here again because I am afraid all of the batches will taste like this. read more

I am rating this place one star i would rate it zero if i could. I do not plan on ordering from here again. Being i ordered from grubhub on my phone didnt realize that i accidentally hit the wrong thing. I called when i got my order and the woman who answered apparently didnt care about their customers. I kindly explained my situation to her and asked if i could replace it instead of understanding she says it was my mistake and they cant do anything. Talk about customer service. Apparently these people don't care that people can make mistakes. Given the reviews already before mine apparently they dont care about how they run their business. Your customer service and restaraunt suck! read more

Fu Wah used to be my go to spot for Chinese food. I don't know what happened over the past years but the food is tasteless!! No seasoning whatsoever. Even the fried rice was disgusting. Not sure what happened to this place. The general tso chicken was chewy and hard, almost like there was no meat at all. read more

This is my go to place for Chinese food in Ewing. Prompt delivery and a friendly staff. Yes, it's Americanized, fast Chinese food. If you're looking for something fancier, there may be better choices. For for good food in a pinch, give them a shot! read more

I ordered the fried wontons, which were pretty good. However, my house special fried rice was bland and the meat was undercooked. The stir fry I also ordered looked unappetizing. The egg rolls were okay, not all that special. I would eat from here again, as a last resort. read more

My new go-to Chinese restaurant Service: FAST, FRIENDLY. Your soup arrives within one minute of placing your order, your entree arrives typically before your soup is finished. Service: With a smile. Always nice. To the extreme. Food: Excellent flavor. Excellent presentation. Eating in your food is served on real plates, with real silverware. This sets them apart from most Chinese restaurants in the area. I've never seen a single fly in this restaurant's dining room. Service is FAST. I love it. read more

Where do I start? The hot & sour soup was neither hot nor sour. The chicken curry was terrible, there was no curry on the vegetables or the chicken. The sauce was the consistency of water and equally lacked flavor. Another meal, (not mine) had a long black hair in it. The delivery came with no mustard, and to top everything off the fortune cookies were rubbery .... stale! The sole redeeming part of the meal was the egroll, although lukewarm. If I want to roll the dice again with my delivery food dollar, I'll head to Parx Casino. I've read good reviews of this place, but Fu Wah failed my family miserably. I have never written a negative review and I was so insenced I opened my Yelp account just to write this review. My advice: caveat emptor. I won't be ordering from here again, a burger & fries from Sonic sounds much better. (Rant over) Thanks, jack read more
