China Gourmet

West Orange NJ (Permanently Closed as of 2021)

For the longest time I’ve wanted to visit this place, and when the time finally came after a very frustration day, plus traffic jams, I decided I deserved to eat out.  Unfortunately things only got worse from there because the owner got into a fight with a customer over takeout and I heard the owner yelling very loud and cursing that customer out.  Then the customer’s husband came in and the fight continued with the patron saying “you are yelling at a woman over an order you got wrong?”   Bottom line, it was not pleasant for me or the other 2-3 people there, the food sucked, as did the cocktails. When I finally saw this place close, I was actually happy to see it would be knocked down. It was a very cool exterior, but people like this for many reasons do not deserve to be in business.

he ribs were nearly impossible to chew, and the “Mai Thai” and “unions” were just some of the many misspellings. I understand they are immigrants, but this place was clearly not here because they took themselves seriously.  The Satellite cocktail resembled nothing of what it should have been.
