16 Best Chinese Restaurants in Davis

“The passion fruit tea was a 10/10 it’s a good amount of sweetness and I downed it very fast. I also ordered the spicy malatang and it’s been my 5th time ordering, it’s so addicting and delicious. Reminds me of my favorite spot in my hometown. Honestly a hidden gem in davis especially for UC davis students. Come check this place out, definitely a good bang for your buck.“

“My wife and I have ordered take-out twice, splitting an order of a General's Chicken the first time and Mongolian Beef the second time. The General's Chicken was wonderful - light, crispy with a delicious, slightly sweet-tart flavor. It was obviously freshly made. Our second order of Mongolian Beef was just the opposite. It was a stew-like meal that seemed to have been on the back-burner a while. Everything was limp and greasy. Very disappointing. We do plan to return, but will ask for a meal that is fresh.“

“Super fast and tasty food with excellent customer service. The front lady is super nice and incredibly considerate, a new favorite restaurant for sure!“

“The best Chinese food in Davis. Been here a few times and compared to the many other spots in town, this one is far ahead. Every dish has flavors. Our favorites are the eggplant and string beans, I’m not even an eggplant person but here it’s amazing. We also enjoy the chow mein with beef, it’s not your typical low-flavor chow mein, the noodles are nicely coated and the perfect brown and the little jalapeno pieces give it an extra kick. Last the fried egg with pork ribs, the fried egg sort of an omelet like egg but far more fried and filled with flavor. I’m personally not the type to order egg at any type of restaurant but here it’s a must, the ribs come in a little broth to compliment the ribs.

You know it’s authentic when the majority of its client base are international students and you’re not hearing much English being spoken lol.

10/10 would recommend.“

“Delicious food and great food“

“Noodle House, as my family and I lovingly call it, is an icon in Davis. It's a little hole in the wall behind Sophia's Thai Bar that was referred to my husband and I 15 years ago. We walked in and almost left because it's small... and old... and a little sketchy? But we decided to give it a try anyway.
We have been coming regularly since then, and our family has grown, and grown up begging to go there for special occasions like getting good grades, etc. There is nothing we have had that isn't delicious.
I highly recommend the won ton noodle soup, pork chop noodle soup, szechuan eggplant with noodles, the potato curry with noodles, the 5 spice beef noodle soup, and the chow mein.
The noodles are homemade. The broths and sauces are unique, delicious, and literally award winning.
The service is fine. It's the same lady for the past several years. She's quick and efficient. Before that, I think it was her mom or aunt.
You won't regret trying it out - and if you do, you'll be back.“

“This place is awesome. Cozy spot for some of the best food. The dumplings simply can't be beat. We drive out from the East Bay when we get a craving. Last night someone in our party went off script and ordered the general chicken and we were all impressed. The portion was huge, just enough for him to allow us all a sample without getting upset his food was disappearing. It was amazing.“

“Wow, a nice canto/HK style restaurant in Davis! They moved to this new location (previously village bakery) and I got to try it this week.

Surprisingly delicious! I went to Tim's before they moved a few years ago and I didn't like it. But I feel like they are way better now. The steak and rice was super flavorful, and the price is quite good <$15. They also have a lot of to-go orders and they had a good number of people in during lunch.

A personal favorite is the bittermelon and beef. It was perfectly well done, and that's not an easy dish to perfect!

The interior is large and spacious and has nice decor. It's quiet and has nice modern feel to it. Parking can be a bit of a pain, but overall not too bad.

Can't wait to try their other dishes- but the steak (with black sauce) and rice is a must try, and also try the bittermelon beef! Enjoy!!“

“Seriously, the best Hunan and Sichuan cuisine you can find right here in Davis! I'm especially excited about their newly added items – they're fantastic! We ordered the premium pork elbow, sizzling plate spicy squid, Chinese winter melon, and stir-fried yellow cattle beef. It's convenient to find authentic Chinese food without having to drive all the way to the Bay Area. I also noticed their new decor and nice music!“

“Fabulous food Delicious food Good service Friendly staff“

“We love this place. It has great Boba tea amongst the bao buns that are sooo good. The prices are really affordable, especially for the good quality in food and size if boba drinks.
The owner is very accommodating. Once a friend ordered the wrong drink and he took it back and remade it without issue.
I highly recommend coming here.“

“Friends say it's just like the Uniboil they're used to in Southern California and I can't argue with that assessment. Get the triple meat hot pots if you want a ample portion, or add extras off the menu. Triple, pork blood, tendon meatballs, all kinds of delicious noms.“

“first time and I loved it!!“

“First, incredible value for the portions you get. Got the pork fried rice. Well seasoned and generous amount of pork. Takes be back to the old days when Chinese food used to be affordable. Beats paying $20 for a side dish at a different restaurant.“

“Consistently incredibly delicious food
Consistently incredible service
CONSISTENTLY making me come back for more

I love this location, and their food is always fresh and tasty

Genuinely the locations in Sacramento suck, as does the one towards woodland, so I always savor eating at this location to enjoy every single bite

You cannot look at this set up and tell me this is not the most gas picture you’ve seen all week, literally making me salivate at 3 AM, and yet u gotta wait til after exams to go indulge myself

Do yourself a favor and treat yourself to some“

“Awesome authentic food from Ding How. I always loved getting the egg here as a kid and coming back the cuisine is still so delicious, the courses I recently tried like the Beef and pepper dish although a little spicy very good. The service is lacking—due to a couple people running the family business and the waitress of the restaurant was also telling me of the fall from covid and that they might close. Support this restaurant!! Although it says mandarin they are superior at cantonese cuisine! The atmosphere is warm and makes me feel at home not to mention the food just taking me to bed as well. Ding How Davis, how I love you.“
