I love ordering from these guys, they always deliver my food on time and never screw up any of my orders, which is impressive as I make a lot of substitutions.
They cover Japanese, Chinese, and Thai which I have tried and was never disappointed yet.
My personal favorites are the crap rangoon and the Tekka Don sushi. They also have fried chicken wings which aren't too greasy for when you have that craving.
When looking through yelp for a place to order take-out/delivery for the first time, I found this place had the best reviews. Despite the lacking stars, if you read the reviews, they get mostly positive responses with a few major complaints (it took too long, was too basic, etc).
I am a visual person I guess cause I ordered the first 2 pictures on yelp: the general tsos and the salmon teriyaki bento box. At the last minute for pure impulse, I added on a cooked salmon & avocado roll. I can't say no to sushi, especially $5.75 sushi. The total with tip was $32, a steal in my mind. **When ordering online they let you add comments — which would save so many of the naysayers from their trouble. For instance, I put my phone number for them to call because our buzzer is broken & I asked for ginger dressing with the salad, both successfully accomplished.
As for the food, I was blown away. It's not "the best" of all Chinese/Japanese food around but it is excellent, especially for no delivery fees & only a $10 minimum from Hoboken to jersey city. I loved the dinners equally & they were very flavorful with fluffy white rice. The sushi rolls were fresh & had HUGE avocado, my favorite. For the 2 of us, we had plenty and now we have enough for lunch tomorrow. The meals come with soup & salad/veggies, and the dinner bento box had shumai & a California roll with the salad, miso soup, & salmon teriyaki.
I already cannot wait to order again from here, this will be our go-to takeout. It also was delivered quickly & within the hour! Cannot recommend enough!
