22 Best Chinese Restaurants near Fultondale

“This spot is truly a hidden gem! A five-star hole-in-the-wall Chinese takeout restaurant. I’m not exaggerating when I say we eat here almost every week! We’ve been loyal customers for over five years since moving to the area, and no other local Chinese takeout has come close. The food is always fresh and flavorful, and the service is always quick and friendly.

Our top three go-to dishes: Chicken and broccoli, sesame chicken, and General Tso’s and don’t forget a side of yum yum sauce and hot oil, of course!
They have tables and chairs to dine in but we always get ours to take home. Big portions, enough to share!“

“Absolutely the best food I’ve had Great quality, staff friendly and beautiful decor. The owner says the restaurant has been there 49 years and he says they have many regulars that come there to eat. We just accidentally ended up here by googling .. this is our new favorite place when in town.“

“absolutely amazing food! I got the avocado salad and shrimp hibachi. my husband got the California rolls and crab and cream cheese rolls! fresh and delicious. service was great too“

“I usually eat here sir by a pleasant waitress, but this last time we were seated in the area the female waitress was snappy mean grouc😖hy, raise a voice🔥🌋 not friendly at all, and when I mentioned it to the male hostess, seated us, he reply, you can sit wherever you want to then.. after seated in the next area the waitress barely wanted to talk to us, we had to call her over to our table each time. 🌆 I then lost my appetite!!We will not be going back!!🔥🌋🌋!!!!👎👎👎👎👎😵‍💫😈“

“One of the best places in Birmingham , for atmosphere and food !! Amazing place , makes you feel as if you've traveled abroad ❤️??“

“Excellent!! Great food and service!!“

“The food is amazing everytime I come here. This last time I got it to go and had an hour and a half drive. By the time I got home, my food was still hot and delicious! Also, they have some of the best fried rice ive ever tasted.HIGHLY recommended!!“

“We had the wings for the first time yesterday and OMG!!!! Definitely great like everything else on the menu!! 😍😍😍“

“Came in late right before closing which I normally don’t do as it was last minute. The lady who took my order was extremely nice when giving me directions to the restaurant. The food was hot as I ordered fried rice with orange chicken. And my food was still hot by the time I made it home. Thank you for the great customer service!“

“Good food and large portions“

“Giving 4 stars bc of the huge portions! Sometimes I get some rlly dry stringy bits in the sesame chicken (still get it all the time tho). And I’m also convinced that the chicken teriyaki is made out of chopped up grocery store rotisserie chicken (wouldn’t get this again personally). The spicy chicken and the chicken n broccoli are solid!“

“The food was amazing and did a to go order when I arrived everything was ready. They’ve done redecorating to make the restaurant more diner friendly and appealing. I recommend this restaurant for anyone who wants good food on the go or dine in.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly from what I could see“

“THIS PLACE IS ONE OF THE BEST! This place should be slammed with people, not sure why there isn’t? Every time I eat from here not only is the price terrific but the amount of quality freshly cooked food is absolutely delicious, GREAT PRICE GREAT FOOD!“

“We love our local Chinese takeout haunt. It’s not the fanciest Chinese around but they are super fast with your order and the portions are generous. Can’t beat it when we don’t feel like cooking and we can pick it up down the road in 10 minutes. The food is an excellent value for what you get. My husband and I particularly love the eggplant. I love their cheese wontons. Hot and sour soup is amazing. Their combos are great because you get rice and an eggroll or soup. The sauces are pretty generic and some dishes have been a little meh, and their fried rice isn’t really fried rice (more like yellow rice lacking any veggies or egg bits) but for the price you can’t beat it. If you want something spicy, make sure you ask because just because you see something is spicy on the menu doesn’t mean it will be. I ordered Hunan chicken and it looked nothing like Hunan, no chilies. The eggplant which wasn’t supposed to be spicy was spicier than my chicken. Pretty sure they just make up their own version of sauces for some dishes. I do like that they serve broccoli, carrot, onion etc with almost every stir fry. Next time I will ask for chilis if I want it spicy.“

“Finally, a place in the south that knows how to do Midwest Style “Springfield Cashew Chicken” No one down here has understood what it is or how to do it. The folks at Chen understood the request and delivered.

Would love to see it added to the menu. Northerners would love it. 🥰

Thank you!!! It’s so good! The service is top notch. The crab Rangoon are delicious.“

“why y'all so me like this for my13 dollars fish over batter dry chicken fry hard dryy come on now eat there every day and probably tomorrow but damn and hire a new Chinese cook my husband comes every day for soup and the Chinese cook rarely be there so out of seven days of coming there we got soup maybe three times so when is he planning on coming to work or what days do you work so we'll know and stop wasting gas“

“I think some of yall are ly8n like hell qith the things you say. NOBODY that works there is gonna sit and watch you eat. If you seen a roach.. guess what most all food places have them. Its also not nasty. I bet half of yall complaining got bugs at your nasty house and cant cook. Tryin to get something for free. ALSO YOU CANT CARRY OUT THE FOOD OFF OF YOUR PLATE!!!! THATS NOT HOW BUFFETS WORK. DUMMY“

“The best, absolute chicken wings I have had from any where. This place is outrageously good. The decor is poor, the staff is professional, and the kitchen looks clean as hell. Can not find a better place, I'm serious when I say the best chicken wings. They are not coated in sauce they are just amazing wings.“

“Delicious, but I am confused. We ordered chow mein and one would expect noodles, but we were given a cabbage soup instead. I initially thought this was a mistake, but it happens anytime we specify "chow mein". I know they offer lo mein noodles, but chow mein usually are some sort of fried noodle dish, yeah? Maybe it's just a culture shock, but I have no clue why their chow mein is entirely different from every reference photo off Google. Anyway, their food is usually consistent and delicious. Love the pork fried rice and Mongolian beef!“

“Wonderful staff! Very friendly and patient. The Egg roll was good, but it doesn't have any meat, which is fine, just a headsup! But it's honestly pretty tasty by itself. Egg drop soup is worth it, but the crackers were very stale. The real star is the entree here. I got shrimp with mixed vegetables, and it's 8.99 before tax for an egg roll and what you see in the picture, aka a LOT. The fried rice can stand on its own and WOW on the flavoe of the mixed veggies and shrimp!!“

“Food was good. Food prepared very fast. My order was $45 I ask for a free soda they said they don’t give away anything for free. I’m visiting from Atlanta most places give a free soda if over a certain dollar amount.“
