Good place for Chinese take out in the Fairview area; service was quick and the price is reasonable. I don't recommend eating there as their "dining area" is very small, so you have customers standing next to your table waiting for their orders while you are having your meal. However overall it's a great place for take out.
After being indecisive about what to order I settled on Chinese. I then decided to try a new spot and since this place is full of glowing reviews I decided to try it out.
I don't get it.
What's so special?
The crab rangoon was okay. I've had it from other places with better filling and tastier dough. I also ordered the wings with teriyaki sauce and they were simply mediocre as well. Next up was my shrimp lo mein. For starters it was short on the shrimp and heavy on the bland noodles. You know how good lo mein has a tasty sauce that kind of coats your lips a little? This didn't have that. It was lacking flavor and wetness leaving the noodles seem dry. I ordered the pineapple chicken for my wife to eat the next day and, while I didn't eat any, the sauce I tasted that was on the outside of the bottom of the container tasted like your run of the mill generic sauce.
Next time I'm going to get off of my lazy ass and go to my usual spot up the street. The food here really embodies the "fair" in Fairview Chinese Restaurant.
This was our favorite Chinese delivery joint when we lived in North Bergen back in '08… we moved to North Cackalacky, came back to WNY,tried some places closer to our new digs, and Fairview still reigns as our go-to.
Two words: Szechuan Wontons
This is the only local place I've found that makes them. They're simply boiled wontons swimming in a spicy sauce… 12 come in an order and they are ADDICTIVE. Everything else they make is tasty — the chow fun and lo mein are solid, as are their roast port in oyster sauce, shrimp in black bean and your standard chicken with broccoli… but the wontons are the wow factor for me.
Delivery is always speedy (even when they're busy) and food always arrives piping hot (which is saying a lot, since we don't live quite so close by anymore). And did I mention that they're open to 11pm like, every night?! Yeah. Pretty killer.
