River Edge, NJ - Wang's is a Chinese restaurant with a regional focus on Hunan cuisine, along with…read moreserving up your typical American-Chinese standards. It is similar to Sichuan/Szechuan cuisine in ways, in that there is an emphasis on spicy foods, although the spice profiles differ. It is in the space formerly occupied by a different Chinese restaurant called Joyce (RIP - I loved and miss their short-lived foray into seafood boils). Although there are many great authentic (meaning regionally specialized) Chinese restaurants in Bergen County and northern NJ, including several Sichuan places, this is the only Hunan one I'm aware of (without venturing further south into NJ), and is certainly one of the nicest Chinese restaurants atmosphere-wise, with an elegant dining room. If you want to try the interesting and authentic dishes, of which there are plenty, order from the sections of the menu labeled with "Hunan" or "Home Style." The soups and cold appetizers are very traditional too. The house speciality is the Hunan steamed fish head with pickled chili - the platter is quite impressive and takes 20-30 min to prepare. You can add tofu (recommended) or noodles for an additional $5. We ordered this but since I'm not a fish head fan (and like my fish very simply dressed) - I think it was a type of carp - the appreciation for it was lost on me. It's topped with a heap of red chilis but is actually not as spicy as it looks. Personally I prefer the fish fillet dishes such as the fish with ginger, which has very tender filet slices. I loved the soup dumplings (large and soupy), shrimp with salted egg yolk (or any salted egg yolk dishes, which aren't easy to find), and enjoyed the tender sautéed beef dishes like beef with spring onion or the spicy green pepper with steak, with crunchy peppers that give a piquant refreshing kick. They have whole Peking duck (Beijing roast duck)! The menu only shows pricing for the whole duck but we asked for half and they obliged. To be honest it's not the best Peking duck I've had but the balance of crispy skin (that's yet not too fatty) to generously shaved lean duck meat was unimpeachable. And they use high-quality crepes that are superbly thin but do not tear. The lo mein is also pretty good - it's slightly smoky and is better than common. Parking tip: there are only a few spots in front but there is a parking lot in the back of the building with plenty of spaces. There are lots of exciting and exotic menu offerings and still many we'd like to try, so we'll be back repeatedly.

Wow, great option for authentic chinese food at a very random location…read more Friend had recommended this to us and glad he did, because there is no way I would have found it.

First, everyone in the place dining was Chinese (definitely a great sign), and second, the people working here care about what they do. They were super attentive and helpful, so I over ordered to get the full experience. The Cumin Lamb was good but the Shrimp with cabbage, not only another reviewer's recommendation but also the waiter's was off the charts and my new favorite dish!! I'll dream of this tonight for sure!! I would suggest that this is actually a destination restaurant, that is one well worth traveling to experience as long as you ask for the non Americanized food. Truly a treasure and run by the nicest people.

Overall everything was tasty and I definitely plan to order from here again.

I felt like it was all done really well, nothing was overly greasy and they got my order right. The only negative was there were no fortune cookies in my bag!

Service is quick, with most dishes coming out within 5 to 10 minutes, making it a great spot when you want something fast and satisfying. Just be warned, it is very easy to overdo it here.

The dishes we have liked and order on repeat are the spring rolls, soup dumplings ofc, veg gyoza, the mapo tofu, any of the fried rices, the veg udon (except for once), the beef with green beans, kung pao chicken. Misses: the pork udon or pork fried rice, the eggplant dish, stir fry baby shrimp (we didnt see the picture), the chicken peanuts, the orange chicken, sesame chicken, and a few others. The chicken usually is hit or miss in terms of texture and flavor unfortunately. Either it is dry and overcooked or it is missing in flavor.
