35 Best Chinese Restaurants near Queen Creek

“My love for a delicious plate of fried rice started when I used to go to the oriental restaurant at the food court in Metrocenter Mall YEARS AGO! And finding spots that capture that same freshness & quick service is always referenced upon. We'll today I found myself waaaay out in Queen Creek to pick up an item I'd been putting off. Because, well you know, we all get busy....and work. But today I took the drive 40 minutes from home mind you, & I needed to find a spot to hang out & have some lunch.
And I'm so glad to came here! No offense to the other choices or the BBQ place I'm looking at while I sit solo at this place, but I totally am thankful I came here. I always get bean sprouts with my fried rice & they delivered. I also asked to egg since the cashier mentioned they don't normally put it in the rice. 🍚
I patiently waited &
OH
MY
GOSH 😍
the plate presentation alone was too pretty to touch! The colors, the little bit of steam still floating like a mini cloud 🌥 over my food was ..... beautiful. Lol.😋
The food was absolutely delicious & I intended to save some for later but it was all gone! 🍚 💨 I made it disappear.
The place may not be fancy & you definitely won't mistake it for a PEI WEI restaurant, but the food.... 🧑‍🍳's 😘
I wish I didn't live so far away. I'd be back sooner. 😔
I guess I could always move. 😉 I did see lots of construction going on. 🚧“

Atmosphere: 4.0/5
It is built for takeout, do not plan on dining inside.

“I don't even know where to begin. All day I had been thinking about getting Panda Express for dinner, even during lunch. So when the time finally came i jumped into my car and went to go get a slice of heaven. Unfortunately when i got home and opened the family meal (I was picking up food for my family I swear im not eating an entire family meal myself) I was greeted with the dynamite chicken, which is still great don't get me wrong, But its just not orange chicken. So i called good ol' Panda to see if I could exhange it. Holding my breath I waited the reply anxiously.... And they said sure! My night was saved! (and my family's night to but this is my story so) So I drove back to the big P. And when I got there I was greeted with the 2 greatest Panda Express workers of all time, they deserve a plaque on the wall really. I walked up to who I would later learn to be Giana (If i spelled your name wrong im so sorry, and if i didn't get your name right at all well now im extra sorry, your great dont worry) She already knew why I was there, I didn't even have to say a word. She gave me my orange chicken and was ready to send me on my way. And then the just as goated cashier entered the conversation as I was telling Giana about my family's low spice tolerance. Her name I would come to learn was Viana (again if i spelled ur name wrong I'm so sorry my memory sucks so bad) What I do remember is that Viana is absolutely gorgeous, so if you're single hit me up I'll take you on a date (but not to the big P cuz yk you work there n stuff) Anyway thats my story about how Panda Express is genuinely a top 5 fast food all time, if you disagree your wrong. And even more importantly About how Giana and Viana saved my night and are the greatest to ever do it.“

“Came in a few days ago for a late lunch after my mom's MRI at ironwood hospital. Service was great and the food was so hot and delicious. Their dumplings are fantastic and so was the teriyaki chicken and the sesame chicken. My mom and I felt the chicken was excellent quality. We will definitely I'll call you back every time we're back in that area!!“

“PEI WEI was one of the meals I was looking forward to the most!! They delivered such a nice quality meal for us pageant girls at MISS ARIZONA USA!! Thank you all at the Queen Creek location!!“

“We came around 9:15 PM today (Thursday April 30th) and the night crew there treated us extremely well and let us know about wait times for some food items in case we needed them while they were 15 minutes til closing. The fact that they were happy to serve us and gave us a good and fast experience is top notch. Thank you guys!“

“Trisha was beyond friendly and made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. She provided great recommendations, was attentive throughout our meal, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful experience. Her excellent service truly stood out and all her recommendations were spot on! Go see Trisha!“

“FanTastic! and several gluten-free dishes, but nobody knows it's GF. Seriously Fantastic and highly recommended for all, but especially GF folk.“

“**Edit** Back to five stars as I have been back since and the staff and food are right where they were before! Below is my former review.

--- ---

While my prior visits have been nothing short of spectacular, last night's order ended very peculiarly.

We ordered crab puffs (X2), honey chicken, curry chicken, shrimp with lobster sauce, and fried rice.

No issues with the puffs, honey chicken, or curry chicken. However, I identified two issues where one we are still encountering as a family.

At one point while eating the fried rice, one of my bites I felt a very crunchy portion. So crunchy, I thought I broke a tooth. Thankfully, I was able to account for my teeth. But I could not find what it was that caused the situation to begin with. Sadly, I was then too paranoid to eat more of the rice.

Shrimp with lobster sauce was a newer item we had picked. Three of us are now dealing with various types of stomach aches. For the three that are dealing with the aches, they were the only three that ate the shrimp dish (my wife, my oldest son, and myself). It has been a rather miserable day, unfortunately.

I had to adjust the rating from a 5 to a 4. Like I said, we've been to Ginger Garden in the past, and no complaints. The rice matter may be a serious outlier, but I can't ignore it given I was legit worried about a broken tooth (maybe it was a super fried rice kernel). But the stomach aches are another item that we can't overlook either. It may be the shrimp or sauce was spoiled, and the restaurant wasn't aware. However, it had a significant impact on our visit.

When I return, I'll make any adjustments to the overall rating. I hope it goes back to the five star rating we've had in the past.“

“great people and great service 👍 food was delicious 😋 my boyfriend and I both enjoyed ourselves“

“Of all the Chinese restaurants in Mesa, I have never enjoyed my dinner as much as I loved Happy Kitchen. Lived here for years, tried them all, this one is a 5 star restaurant. Come hungry, you will rave about the service and the food. A 5 star restaurant.“

“AMAZING food and service!!! I will be coming again. Must try! Instantly felt welcome and comfortable.“

“First time eating there last night. Ambiance was great for dine in, friendly service, GOOD food with vegetarian options. Out of our way but worth the drive!“

“When I moved to AZ I was worried it would take awhile to find a good Chinese restaurant. Fortunately for me I stumbled in here first. Some of the best Chinese food I’ve had! I’ve eaten there twice both times were awesome!!! Staff is also very nice and helpful!“

“Always good food. Highly recommend“

“The food here is great! I did delivery and they were prompt and friendly! I ordered kung pao shrimp. The rice was perfect. The veggies were cooked just enough to retain their crispness and flavor. The shrimp were plump and delicious. The portions are large! The spring rolls are fresh and tasty! I have found my Mesa garden spot!“

“We have been moving to our new apartment for a few days. And we are barely starting to unpack. I don't have anything to cook with yet until we finish unpacking. I can say this place FIRE!!!!! So delicious and good service! You guys will be my first choice for food if I'm not cooking. Life saver and amazing! So delicious!!!!! Thank you!“

“Look no further. This is the place! I’ve been searching for the best Chinese food since moving here years ago and THIS is it! 😍 some of the best fried rice I’ve had in my life. Clean, fresh and so yummy!“

“This is my first time here. I stopped in for lunch on a Sunday afternoon. I was surprised to see that they offered their lunch specials on weekends also.
It seemed to be a husband and wife team working the restaurant.

I ordered the shrimp with vegetables. From the lunch special. Everything was served in to go containers even if it was ordered to dine in as I did. They did however give you regular fork and spoon which is nice. I hate to with undersized plastic forks.

The service was fast and genuinely nice. The food came quick fresh and hot.

It was a great experience and fair price.“

“Absolutely loved this place. The highlight for me was the Shrimp Pan Fried Noodle. The portion size was massive. I ate a ton and it barely looked like I touched it, so the value for the money is incredible.

The restaurant itself has that authentic Asian-owned vibe both inside and out, which I personally love. You can tell right away the food is going to be legit, and it definitely delivered.

I’ve seen some of the other reviews, and honestly it feels like some people came in with the wrong expectations. If you come in open-minded and ready for real, hearty portions and authentic flavors, you’re going to enjoy it.

I will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend giving it a try.“

“Food Quality: 4.2/5
The food is very good overall and consistently enjoyable. Portions are especially generous, which is always a plus and makes the meal feel satisfying and worthwhile.

Service: 4.1/5
The staff is friendly and efficient, but service is very hands-off. You’ll need to ask for everything—silverware, sauces, and condiments are not provided unless requested. Once you ask, they’re happy to help. I don’t quite know why, but I feel like they’re trying to save money by not giving you the basic utensils to eat takeout unless explicitly asked for.

Cleanliness: 4.3/5
The restaurant appeared clean and well maintained during my visit, with no issues noted.

Atmosphere: 4.0/5
Simple and functional. This is a place focused more on food and value than ambiance, which works well for what it is.

Value for Money: 4.5/5
Large portion sizes really stand out and make this a strong value. You definitely feel like you’re getting more for your money here.“

“my fire Craker chicken was delicious and my crab wontons excellent“

“Really good Chinese restaurant that reminded me of the Chinese restaurants back home in New York City. The chicken wings were a little over seasoned with the curry powder, but everything else was spot on. Clean and spacious. Will definitely go back.“

“I first went in to pick up a Doordash order and it smelled so good I had to go back on the weekend to try it... it was one of the best Chinese restaurants I have been to in Arizona. The chicken was the crispiest chicken ever and that is what I was searching for. I can't want to come back and try something else.“

“I don’t are what anyone says, whether the prices go up or down I will be a forever customer. Every single time I order, it is always hot and fresh and tastes amazing, even when place a door dash order. Everyone there is exceptionally friendly and it definitely is a family owned atmosphere. I truly appreciate the kindness they’ve always shown my family and I :)“

“I had an appointment in Gilbert and I was starving. I pulled into this plaza and saw Wild Ginger. I stopped in to do a take out order. I saw the pan fried noodles. ordered and swallowed the meal 😋. I added it to my Google maps to return so that I could dine in next time I was in the area. It took me several months to return but it was worth driving 32 miles to eat here along with some great friends. It's cozy and romantic and decor is nice. The servers need to be more friendly and engaging. I did like the consistency of the food from my first impression. We ordered pan fried noodles, Singapore noodles, pineapple fried rice and fried tofu for dessert. No disappointments.“

“Panda express never disappoints. This location is great because they have a drive thru and the drive thru has two lines. The workers here are nice and friendly. The drive thru went quickly and my food was still hot. Sometimes the orange chicken is too spicy but it is just right at this location! It is right off the freeway and usually doesn't have a lot of traffic!“

“We did an online order because of a fundraiser for my son's scout unit. The order process was easy. The staff was super friendly when I went to pick up. The food was ready on time. The food itself was ok. It was a little bland this time around, but ok.“

“4 times out of 5 some of the food is cold“

“We have always enjoyed the food, we have been costumers for 5 years now since we moved new to the area. But today we are disappointed because we called in an Eder for pickup 30 minutes before closing and the manager said they couldn’t take our order. We are 5 minutes away and had never had a problem before. I had to find a different Chinese restaurant nearby“

“What a pleasure! I had the fresh veggie and meat stir fried to perfection! The snow crab was cooked perfect easy to crack open and sweet and tender. Egg drop full of flavor. Lightly breaded chicken large tender white meat ! The desserts were light and tasty! I am hardly ever pleased with everything but they made my night! I'm going back when ever I can . Thank you China city I'm very pleased keep up the great food😁❤️ soup flavorful. The sweet and fr“

“Awesome Dining Experience at Panda Express

I recently was dining at Panda Express, and I must say, it was a really good experience. The food was absolutely delicious, with flavors that burst in every bite. The orange chicken was crispy and perfectly sauced, while the chow mein was cooked to perfection.

However, what truly sets this Panda Express apart is its incredible staff. The team, led by the efficient and friendly Manager, Natalie, consistently delivered top-notch service. Their hard work and dedication were showing in every interaction.

I want to give a special shoutout to the hardworking staff members: Anthonyo, Jackie, Angie, Liz, and Maria. Their positive attitudes and willingness to go the extra mile made my dining experience even more enjoyable.

I wholeheartedly recommend this Panda Express to anyone seeking delicious Chinese cuisine and outstanding customer service. These employees deserve recognition and a raise for their awesome work!

“Such a great place!Doesn't need all the glitz and glamor you'll find at most Chinese food places.Clean dining room,clean restrooms, and the food..amazing!Portions are more than generous and is served with a smile.We will definitely be back!“

“Order at the counter. Food is tasty for sure if you get it fresh off the burner. They will split your side so you can get both rice and chowmein. They do give a healthy portion of each. Not as generous on the main dishes. They are all good. Take a quick peak before you order to see what looks good to you. I've been to this restaurant a few times and there is always a wait to order.“

“I was in this location February 12 when I got there the line was to the door and the entire time I was in there. It stayed past the door. The crew in there are doing an outstanding job working at a crazy pace to keep up with all of the people coming in, all the while being very friendly. Great job to this crew!“
