I don't think it's controversial to suggest that places with lots of immigrants from a particular country are more likely to have restaurants that better reflect that country's cuisine.
you can get better Chinese food in the Edison area --- better than what you find in the city unless you go to Flushing. Shanghai dumpling is amazing on Rte 27 is amazing but very small and always a wait. Wonder Seafood, also on 27 is very good. There are others and you can find online. Edison has a very large Chinese population. Yes, it takes about 35 minutes to get to the area but well worth it if you want really good Chinese food.
Try Door Dash, they deliver from lots of different towns. I was never a fan of any of the Chinese places in MSO, but DD adds Springfield, Millburn, Summit and Livingston into the mix, where I thought the Chinese food was better.
I tried it once, 25% of our bill toward delivery!!! Never again. We ordered $35.00 in food and door dash charged $10.00 to deliver it from only 1/2 mile away.

This sounds great but I really like to order and get it delivered to South Orange. Any suggestions?
People actually from China who know the authentic cuisine.
Most Americans do not want "authentic" Chinese cuisine. I tried to order something in a Chinese restaurant in Jersey City patronized mainly by Asians and the waiter told me I wouldn't like it.
But the place is pretty good. Grand Sichuan
I like Hunan Spring on Morris Avenue in Springfield.

once again Door Dash is way too expensive 25% of the bill for us. Never again.
Not a huge fan of Chinese food but we like China Chalet in Florham Park. FWIW, it always has an overwhelmingly Asian crowd and can be very crowded on weekend nights. Doubt it delivers this way though.
The last time I suggested Jade Lake in Millburn I was accused of being a chicken nugget eater. But, after all these years I still think they're as good as it gets in this area.

I went to Jade Lake (I think - entrance is in the back from the parking lot, right?) for Xmas buffet a while back and it sucked to HIGH heaven. Haven't been back.

I am friends with numerous "real" Chinese people and they overwhelmingly recommend China Chalet. Frequently we go and they order "off the menu" things although their menu items are quite good. Another good choice is A&J Bistro in E. Hanover for authentic Taiwanese style beef noodle soup and other side dishes.

Oh go suck an egg (roll).
Honestly - a sad experience. And I'd been there before and thought it was fine. Not that night.
Wasn't there an ethnic sub-group called, Oreos? I don't remember p.c. complaints when that was in vogue.
