Top Best Chinese Restaurants in Edison

"What: If you’re looking for dim sum Nom Wah Tea Parlor is where to go. It’s been around since 1920 maknig some of the city’s best dumplings."

"The beloved Philadelphia restaurant chain finally opened its first outpost in New York's East Village this year, and early reviews are raving. Items on the menu are scored 1-10 based on spiciness, with 10 topping out at mouth-scorching. Order the famed dan dan noodle appetizer, and follow it up with a hot pot or one of the dozen or so other options on the entree section of the menu."

"Where: 215 West 85th Street (Upper West Side); Other locations: 90 3rd Avenue (East Village); 1 Dekalb Avenue (Brooklyn). What: Critics say the chain’s best location is the original NY outpost on Third Avenue, and since that’s the only one we’ve been to we blindly agree. Their dan dan noodles are spicy but delicious, and the pickled vegetables are a must for the table."

"The claim to fame at this West Village restaurant is the Katz’s (yes, as in that Katz’s) pastrami egg rolls, but the sauteed lobster, black bass tarts, and bacon-laced fried rice are equally satisfying. Rustic communal tables and red gingham seats make for a fun, social vibe, so be sure to dine in for the ultimate experience. This is also a two-for-one: Located right downstairs is Decoy, from the same team, offering bird-focused eats like succulent peking duck and a duck & kimchee flatbread sandwich."

"RedFarm is a creative, high-end Chinese restaurant in the West Village that brings you innovative, Chinese dishes presented in a very whimsical, playful manner. Check out, for example, the Pac-Man ghost dumplings with the sesame seed eyes or the Katz's pastrami egg roll. They don't take reservations, so come early to nab a table."

"When we order Chinese by delivery, we usually order from Red Farm. West Village | 529 Hudson St (nr. Charles St), NYC. Upper West Side | 2170 Broadway (nr. W 77th St), NYC"

"Visit the cozy Málà Project for their signature Sichuan dry pot. The menu is stacked with more than 50 ingredients, ranging from the innocuous (chicken thighs, snow peas) to the bold (rooster testicles, beef artery). Depending on the size of your party, you’ll choose at least eight items, which will be spiced mightily and tossed in a wok."

"Where: 41 West 46th Street (Midtown);  Other location: 122 1st Avenue (East Village). What: Known for their Chinese dry pot, this East Village eatery has over 50 ingredients for you to choose from!"

"The original Nom Wah is closed, but their counter-service location in Nolita is open. So place an order for some dim sum and sloppy joe noodles, and add a 1.5-pound bag of frozen siu mai or dumplings to your order so you have more things to eat when you wake up at midnight (because you went to bed out of boredom at 7pm). Check out their menu and place your order here."

"What to order: Boiled Shrimp and Pork Dumplings With Bacon XO Sauce. Location: 10 Kenmare St, New York, NY 10012 Website: nomwah.com"

"Another legendary old-school pastry shop and bakery in Brooklyn dating back to 1945 is Circo’s Pastry Shop in Bushwick. Loaded with Italian and French pastries you can find an array of cakes, cookies, and cakes for any of your special occasions. Don’t miss out on their classics like cannoli, eclair, rainbow cookies, cheesecake, and tiramisu"

"Every time we’re shopping for hard-to-find condiments and snacks in Chinatown at Kam Man, we end the afternoon by treating ourselves to Ling’s sweet cakes (really more like pancakes) down the block. Just $1 lands you a heaping wax pastry bag of the fluffy balls of joy, though their surprising airiness means you can finish them off without any help. You can get them covered in chocolate sauce, but true Ling’s fiends leave them as is.Corner of Canal and Mulberry Sts, Chinatown."

"So, the Butcher’s Daughter might not seem to fancy, but this cafe and lunch spot is easily one of the best restaurants in New York to visit whilst in the West Village or Williamsburg. Prices might be a little more than some other spots for casual lunch in New York but it’s well worth it. Their angel hair carbonara and burrata and pears is so good on a sunny day."

"This "vegetable-slaughterhouse" serves up fresh plant-based breakfast, lunch, and dinner at their two locations. The menu is fully vegetarian, with most of it being vegan and gluten-free as well. They're commitment is to transform fruit and vegetables into something special and focus on featuring local, seasonal produce."

"Leave it to a butcher’s offspring to swear off meat, but at least she’s doing it right. This vegetarian restaurant has a slew of vegan options, raging from an adzuki bacon BLT to pad Thai to healthy-ish cocktails mixed with cold pressed juice."

"Egg is actually a brunch sent from socially conscious heaven. Their Brooklyn location is the original one, but there is now an Egg operating in Tokyo as well. Besides the beautiful brunch they serve, Egg also runs their own farm, employs a diverse kitchen staff, and has established a program that emphasizes the importance of literature in the community."

"Other top Williamsburg brunch spots include Allswell, Egg, Rabbithole and Rye. Typically brunch is only served on weekends. On a weekday morning, head to B.A.D. Burger for a breakfast of chicken and waffles, organic egg or tofu scramble, and creme brulee French toast."
