It's convenient and their lunch specials are very affordable. I won't go crazy and tell you this place is high on my list of Chinese food places, but it's quick and easy and I always get service with a smile.
Seriously though-the food is ok. Their lunch combos are standard fare and if you order from the regular menu they are pretty pricey. Their 'spicy' dishes, aren't really spicky-adding a couple of kung pao peppers doesn't automatically make something spicy people. The noodle dishes are usually pretty good-try the Singapore Chow Mei Fun…
As a self professed egg-roll snob I wouldn't give their egg-rolls two stars. Very small (half the size of any egg-roll I've ever had) and really not filled with the egg-roll goodness I love. Yeah, I know, it's the least healthy thing on the menu…but that's why I love them so…
If it wasn't so convenient I would look elsewhere, but for now, this is my Newark/Harrison Chinese food place.
5 Grains Rice is a very nice surprise for an Americanized-Chinese restaurant. Their food tastes great, prices are well-suited for the portions they give to you and their interior is really bright, clean and welcoming. Whats better is that I don't feel like their dishes are completely laden with MSG – WIN!
Pretty good. We had a hot and sour soup, jalapeno sliced beef, and seafood sizzling plate. All of them were cooked quite well and were pretty much what you'd expect.
This is considered one of those quick grab some Chinese food take out type places and it's actually pretty nice. It's not like those cheesey Chinese take out places you see everywhere, they actually present their restaurant a lot nicer than most and the food itself is actually pretty darn good for Chinese take out.
When you actually eat in instead of taking out the plating is a lot nicer than some other Chinese take out and you almost feel like you're eating at an actual "restaurant."
This is a nice place to grab some cheap Chinese food, I really recommend the black pepper chicken and the beef and broccoli. This is definitely a place that I would regularly go back to due to the price and quality of food compared to the other ones down the street.
Consistently yummy General Tso's Tofu? Yep, they've got that.
Super plump steamed vegetable dumplings? Oh yeah.
Paper thin scallion pancakes with a side of curry sauce? Yes, please.
Lo Mein that will feed you for days on end? Check.
Crab Rangoon? Finger lickin' good!
Just 5 of the many reasons I love 5 Grains Rice!
