Review

Always highly-rated, Cathay 22 is a notch above most NJ Chinese restaurants. The menu features Sichuan specialties like Dan-Dan Mein Noodle and Three Pepper Chicken. The Dumplings in Spicy Sauce are good, but could be spicier for my taste.

Cathay 22 is a stand-alone building on Route 22 West, with friendly owners and diligent servers. My daughter loves Peking Duck and our waiter sliced and served it in the individual pancakes, tableside. A nice touch. Some Asian customers, but mostly non-Asians in the spacious dining room. One pet peeve: chopsticks were never offered.
