Why Hunan Taste stands out
Most Chinese restaurants in Morris County are takeout counters. Hunan Taste is a full sit-down dining room, with a koi pond and a colorful pagoda-style exterior that looks like nothing else on Bloomfield Avenue. It has been named the best Chinese restaurant in New Jersey by The Daily Meal, and it remains a go-to for birthdays, graduations and family dinners.
What to order
The menu runs across Hunan, Szechuan and Cantonese cooking. Diners most often mention the Peking duck, steamed soup dumplings, pan fried dumplings, barbecued spare ribs and General Tso’s chicken. Seafood dishes, including lobster and scallop plates, fill out the higher end of the menu, and lunch specials are the budget-friendly way in.
Reservations and wait times
Reservations are taken by phone. Friday and Saturday nights fill up, and holidays such as Christmas Day and New Year’s Eve book early, so call several days ahead for a large party.
Parking
Parking is available on site, and municipal lots are a short walk away. Our Downtown Denville guide has the full parking rundown.
