Last time I visited Look See was at their old location in Ramsey. This place is a little darker, more modern design and clean. We came in late due to some necessary shopping. The place was going to close in about 45 minutes. And our waiter made sure to explain that in detail. We ordered a bunch of dishes, sweet and sour shrimp, sautéed bok choy with garlic, chicken egg foo young and pork lo mein. Typical Chinese cuisine. It was tasty but it wasn't special. But you wanted to keep eating because the flavors were good. The service was fast and solid. The cost was typical for northern NJ. Try them out when you are in the area. No issues here. read more

Food is great, but charging $2.00 each for Costco tea bags in a takeout order is outrageous. (14 cents each at Costco). Most Chinese Restaurants still give you free tea bags. This kind of overcharging is a game changer for me. Won't be back. read more

This was our first time ordering Chinese food in this area. The food was fresh and tasty! WIll definiitely order again.

We ordered delivery, everything was perfect. The chicken lettuce wraps were amazing! The food came on time, we will definitely order to go here again! read more

We went to Look See for my parents anniversary. They like an old school, Brooklyn style Chinese place and Look See didn't disappoint. Nine of us descended on the Ramsey restaurant and demolished house special soups, egg rolls, spare ribs, Yangzhou fried rice, gluten-free fried rice, white velvet shrimp and orange chicken. Everything was delicious, the meal was paced nicely, and the waiter was excellent. We will return. read more

I was in the mood for Chinese and gave this place a try. I ordered the shrimp and broccoli lunch special. When I arrived I parked in the lot. I walked in and was greeted and paid and left. When I ate the meal it was really tasty! I enjoyed the meal! I had a good experience. read more

Was pleasantly surprised about how much we liked Look See. Got takeout on a Sunday night. The chicken teriyaki was pretty tasty and not greasy at all. Has a nice grilled taste with NJ ya I'd pepper. The miso soup was good. The steamed pork dumplings were standard takeout style so obviously they were delicious. Delivery took foreverrrrr (well past the estimated time) so they get dinged a star. read more

A first negative review. No manager in house. Told to call back maybe Monday...Cold fried pork dumplings. No rice. Poor entree. My usual lovey delivery driver. They needed some supervision in the kitchen and a more pleasant and courteous person on the phone who might also be helpful.So disappointing. Regular customer, might need to rethink, read more

Look Here, and See my words for exactly what they are: Look See has the most phenomenal water in the state of New Jersey. Don't question it, don't ask, don't counter. Just try it. So smooth, perfect temperature, accompanied by good ice and a great drinking glass. Look See always has a terrific staff. My regular waitress is so lovely and so attentive that if I could adopt her as my grandmother, I would jump at the opportunity. She is a true presence of life, of fortitude, and of brilliance. I don't know her like that, but I still know it to be a true. Sparks peer out of her eyes and enlighten the hearts of her customers. Now to the food. Look See has always bestowed deliciousness upon it's customers. A tad expensive? Yes, but other Chinese restaurants have caught up due to inflation. Stocks. Crypto. Fortune 500. Fortune Cookies, I'm ALWAYS going somewhere... never think that I'm lost. Ever. Linguini's Fortune of The Day: Lust is like Ice Cream in the Summer. Love is like Ice Cream in the Winter. At it's former domineering location, in the midst of a highway interloop, they had a monopoly over the classy Chinese restaurant game. Now, they don't have the same reputation in town but in my humble and elite opinion.... they have continued to represent a similar standard. Plain and simple it's good Chinese food, and it's elevated by its extraordinary, truly out of this world water. Just uncanny. It's solidified itself in the Top 5 best Chinese foods in Bergen County, it's been there for a long time and I don't see it going away. Like a Long Islander since birth, will they ever make a trip over an NY bridge to get them out of that delirious and incoherent land mass? Or will they stay petrified of any other worldly experience. Shambolic and senseless. Rant. Apologize for the unprofessionalism. Prayers and Sorrows. Some food specifics: They do all the classics well, they have some good appetizers. I like and endorse the lettuce wraps specifically Chicken w/ brocc. Very nice fried rice, solid lo mein. A vivacious variety of dumplings that'll get your tummy rumbling from the get-go. Sometimes I think I am a dumpling. I get you excited, I indulge you and delight you. Yet time after time you come back and you allow me to leave you without a murmur, at a loss of words... I steal your thoughts and I make them my own. Self-Verified as a vandal, I must even escape my own words from time to time. And here I'll do just that. Have a nice meal, fellow Yelpers. And drink that water, drink it until there is no droplet left. And then lick up the aftermath, leave no man behind. read more

The food is very good here. Nothing feels as heavy and saturated like normal Chinese or Japanese food. The customer service is good and their staff is attentive. You don't have to go searching for them! Overall, this is top 3 for me. I definitely recommend you give it a try. read more

Look See is currently my favorite Chinese restaurant in the area and has been consistently ranked as one of the best too! I have been going to Look See for over 30 years with the previous and current owners. I have always been very happy with how good their food always is! ... Be sure to try their delicious specialties, (or you'll be missing out on their authentic Chinese dishes such as, Chef Wang's Chicken (aka Chef Wang's Chicken Chinoise), Triple Fragrance, Jumbo Shrimp in Ginger & Scallion Sauce, Look See Singapore Mei Fun and many more! Our server the past 3 times eating dinner there has been Lu-Lu and she is such a pleasure to deal with and to talk with. Feel free to asked for her! read more

A excellent Chinese restaurant. I love their crispy beef! I wish their crispy chow mein noodles were the large flat type as I like to nibble on that type while waiting for the meal. I like their lunch options and am including pictures of the lunch I'm having today . Yum! read more

Look See - General Tso Chicken - Japanese Near Me - Ramsey, New Jersey

Came there a lot many years ago, the quality of the food and the service has been going downhill. Today, kind of the last straw. Placed order for delivery. Specifically said steamed chicken with Snow peas. order is delivered, the ticket on the bag says steamed chicken with snow peas. But what do we get --steamed chicken with mixed vegetables and the person we ordered for can't eat some of the mixed vegetables. call the restaurant, tell the person on the phone we did not get the order that we wanted and he says he has to speak to the manager and the response is there's snow peas in there. I told him many times we order a protein with only one type of vegetable and wasn't sure why they couldn't get the order right. Again, he said well the manager said basically too bad and he hung up the phone. As to food, sliced chicken was slimy and pork dish swimming in oil- veggies in pork still basically raw. Stay away! People can make mistakes, but poor attitude should not be tolerated read more

Been here a couple times for birthday parties. Wife and I decided to return to bring the mother in law who enjoys sit down Chinese restaurants. Food was good, but we enjoyed our appetizers more than our dinners. We even commented later that if we go back we'll just order many appetizers. What happened to the days of getting hot tea and actual fried noodles in a bowl on the table with duck sausage and hot mustard ? Look See provided tiny packets of them that were unappealing. Must be a leftover Covid requirement. We left thinking "good" not "great" read more

I usually enjoy the food but two weeks ago; I ate there and there was a strange taste to the broccoli and chicken. It tasted like sand was in the sauce and my stomach didn't feel good later on. Plus, the waiter seemed so eager for me to leave after paying my bill. I probably will come back maybe a month later to give it another try. read more

I will definitely choose places that care about what they serve. No skin off my nose to stay local! They don't want to serve the best anymore, I don't need them either. Used to love this place, always considered them a huge cut above my local takeout. Jeez. I ordered crispy beef tonight, had it many, many times before from them, loved it, even willing to give up some of the 'crisp' for the flavor but this was AWFUL! Only word to describe it. If i wanted to have a gloppy dish of soggy beef strips doused in a totally indescribable mass of some sweet disaster of a sauce, alongside a mess of flavorless rice, i could have ordered that at a local place & saved myself a bunch of money! If i could give it zero stars, i would. Hey! - Look See - if you want nearly the entire container back, minus the 5 pieces i ate, just let me know. I'd even drop it off for a refund! Got the tasteless rice for you too! So. After a bunch of days, not hearing from Look See at all, while that totally awful so-called 'crispy beef' sits in my fridge, uneaten, no concern is given. Look See is apparently not the least bit interested in making their disaster seem worthwhile. It's ok! There are more options than a restaurant who doesn't care. I can go to the other restaurants next to them. Maybe noone reads their reviews. Tsk. No problem. Just as long as every other diner there knows that your opinion about what they offer does not matter. Cheerio! Hmmm. Well, I will try to offer the leftovers in my local 'free page'. Maybe someone would like to give it a try. I'll never be back. read more

My family just moved to the area and decided to try this place out for Christmas dinner. We were very happy with everything. Estimated time they gave us was pretty accurate (only waited about 3 mins after I paid). Service was friendly. Food was amazing. I do not like fried food but also love sesame shrimp so I was happy they had sesame grilled shrimp. So good! We also enjoyed the general tso's chicken, steamed pork dumplings, and crab rangoon! All so yummy...will be back soon! read more

I placed an order online and wanted pork fried rice instead I received white rice, the pork which was an extra cost was put into the chicken egg foo young and not in the rice.I called Look See to share my concerns and they did not seem to care nor offer to fix the issue. The egg roll did not have any taste. They also did not give packets of mustard instead it was in a small container which also did not taste right. read more

What's not to like. Our go to place for Chinese food now. BBQ spare ribs, egg rolls, beef chow fun, seafood pan fried noodles, eggplant garlic sauce, char siu egg foo young & pan fried pork dumpling Some of our selections. Closest you can get for real Chinatown foods. read more

Great food great service! Nice people, food tasted fresh and prepared well. Staff is friendly and greet you as you walk in.

My family came here for dinner before a movie. My parents said this is their new place to come to since we just moved to the area, so obviously they liked the place very much. After our visit, my parents were pretty upset with the service we recieved, because some of our orders never went through or got mixed up, but everyone was happy with the food. Between the five of us, we ordered a few soups, salads, three chinese meals to share and three sushi meals to share. The favorites were definitely the Route 17 roll and the sesame chicken. The weird part, that wasn't a problem but not what we had planned on, was that they brought the sushi out well after the chinese meals, almost like another course. We are familiar with this kind of behaviour at restaurants that serve both sushi and chinese meals, but usually the sushi comes out first. If this is something important to you, definitely ask and make sure the sushi comes out first!! My family will definitely keep coming, because the food was just that good. read more

I would give this place zero stars if I could not only did the service suck but the food was completely underwhelming I thought it taste terrible while eating it and so did my friends next morning we all wake up with stomach aches and going Diarrhea. Prolly food poisoning or they use old fish that's bad. read more

I am honestly not sure why this restaurant has so many bad ratings. My experience there was actually really nice, and the employees there were very kind. My friends and I were on our way home from New York and made a pit stop to get some gas. We stumbled upon Look See and decided to dine in. We ordered a Chicken Lo Mein and General Tso's Shrimp. The shrimps that were used in the General Tso's Shrimp dish were very large shrimps. The batter was not too heavy, and the sauce was perfectly sweet, spicy and savory. Look See does General Tso's a little different in the sense that the dish had some baby corn, snow peas and bell peppers in it. Usually when I order any General Tso's dish, it usually just comes with blanched broccoli. I definitely enjoyed the mix of vegetables incorporated into the dish, it was a refreshing change. The Chicken Lo Mein was really good. I have had my fair share of Lo Meins and this was one of the better ones I have tried. The dish was very generous with the chicken and veggies, but was very proportionate to the noodles. This was a good dish to have on the side to cleanse the palette after eating the heavy General Tso's Shrimp. read more

A bit pricey but overall great food. It was about $70 for a meal for 5 family members with delivery. So overall a little pricey per item but the food was delicious and the delivery time was under an hour read more

Had dinner for 6 on Friday and I have to say it's the best Chinese food in the area. Chicken with broccoli was fresh and huge portions to the delight,as we shared all the other dishes. General Taos Chicken was also outstanding fresh and cooked to perfection. A little tip always eat at the restaurant the food stays and tastes better than this plastic trays when you take it home. Enjoy! read more

Incredible food, great service, amazing variety. I love going to china town and appreciate the food;however, being spoiled with NY food, it was hard to find a match in NJ! Let me tell you, LookSee did not disappoint. Will definitely come back! read more

I thought for about a week if I should post negative review, but than it is just fair. We had been going to LiokSee for years, no major complaints or disappointments, but not something to brag about. This time we decided to order curbside pick up to support locals. Soup was ok, beef chow fun had 3 glorious pieces of meat, crab rangoons were soft with strange consistency for staffing (can't blame it on sogginess from time). Sesame chicken was very strange, basically pieces of chicken swimming in very liquid sauce, no zest, no crunch, no coating. I was disappointed. Under different circumstances I would have driven back and had it with management, but being in a hospital all day I did not feel like going out for this nonsense again. I felt cheated. Oh, farewell, there are plenty of places which will appreciate support snd business more. read more

Yes, it's a pandemic. Yes, I'm grateful I was able to order Chinese food and have it delivered. The above reasons do not excuse the quality and preparation of the food. The scallion pancakes were awful. The crab rangoon was awful. The soup dumplings were awful. The sesame chicken was awful. The beef and broccoli was awful. The spare ribs were awful. Everything was greasy and lacking flavor. Nothing appeared to be made in house. All of the meat was chewy and tough. I just ripped up $130. Now I need dinner. I advise you try a different restaurant. read more

On Christmas Day we ordered from here. Website said 30 minutes for pick up, placed the order... a screen popped up and said your order will be ready at 6:49pm, I ordered at 5:19pm. I figured there was a line out the door, wrong... at 6:30 when I arrived, there were empty tables, and no one waited to pick up food and 3 bags behind the table. When I got the food home it was not even hot. The smallest container of rice I have ever seen, and no soy sauce packets just 3 fortune cookies. The food was not at all tasty, thank god I had soy sauce at home, we will not be going back here. Very sad indeed. read more

3.25 Stars but I'll be kind. Food is fresh but lacks flavor. Also slow on producton of food when not busy.

My second review and honestly small portions, high prices for food that doesnt taste great. Also would not let me substitute lo mein for rice which was weird. read more
