50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Fountain Valley

“valuable, set lunch very good. especially Chai Siu Fired rice, homemade Chao Siu is really taste good.“

“Took my e-bike Huntington Beach Pier stopped here fountain valley to get some orange chicken/fried rice with a drink. Under $15 took e-bike battery charger inside backpack. And e-bike battery in my hand. This place has four or five outlets by the seating tables. They didn't tell me I couldn't charge my battery. So I plugged it in well I eat my food. 1 hour later put battery back on my bike and took off. This food is excellent. Nice size portion orange chicken is the bomb. Topped off my battery and had enough to go to Huntington Beach Pier and come back to my starting location Santa Ana main Street and Civic center“

“I am so glad I had a chance to come to the Panda Bowl for the first time since moving to California. Usually I’m always brought to another location (out of respect I will not say names) we frequently go to, nothing wrong but I really wanted something different for once and this location was convenient from where we were parked.

The food here at Panda Bowl is fresh and seasoned very well. I can finally say I think I found my favorite place to go to when I would like to eat Chinese takeout. For awhile since moving to California, no other location in particular for Chinese food ever kept my attention or interest. But here? This is the spot I actually enjoyed and could see myself frequently choosing this location to eat from.

I would highly recommend coming here, only spent up to $20 to share a container between me and one other person. The food is delicious!“

“Everything would have been perfect except the tofu and chili sauce should have been in separate containers. Some people, like myself, can't tolerate spicy food. I just dipped the tip of the pita bread and it was enough to burn my mouth. Even my friend who eats spicy food complained that it should have not been placed in the same container. Looking around the room, many did not touch that plate, or just ate the crudités.“

“The food is good and they are very generous with the portions. This is my third time coming here and they don’t disappoint, the green beans are so delicious that I just keep coming back for them! I hope they don’t use MSG…“

“The food server (Omar), was super busy and still very friendly. Did not feel rushed. He also was not stingy with the food amount. Food was delicious and orange chicken had just the right crisp. Hats off to the chef!! I definitely would come back to this location. Thank you for a great lunch experience.“

“Genghis Khan Mongolian BBQ is literally the best I have ever had. I have been going here for years and it is one of my all time favorite restaurants. The food is amazing and the owners are amazing also.“

“Haidilao never fails when it comes to quality and comforting hot pot. The dining area is clean, spacious, and beautifully accented with Chinese-style lantern fixtures.
Broth & Sauce Bar: The four-grid pot is the way to go — spicy broth with rich aroma alongside a savory mushroom broth and clear broth for lighter items. The DIY sauce bar lets you craft the perfect dipping bowls, from creamy sesame sauce topped with chili oil and cilantro to traditional fragrant garlic sesame oil.
Fresh Ingredients:
Sliced Beef & Lamb: Freshly sliced with vibrant color and great marbling; cooks tender and juicy within seconds.
Sides & Noodles: The dried tofu ribbons soak up the flavorful broth perfectly, the Napa cabbage is crisp and sweet, and the instant noodles cooked in the spicy broth make for the ultimate finish.
Service: Attentive and seamless as always. Water refills, apron prep, and empty plate clearances are handled smoothly without being intrusive.
An effortless 5-star meal that delivers on taste, consistency, and top-notch service every single visit.“

“I had a great first time experience at noodle nest. I came in craving some lamb cumin skewers and ended up ordering few other items as well. The service was super friendly and everything came out very quickly. The restaurant is pretty big overall and has iPad ordering which I like.

Marinated cucumbers: pretty standard with a big kick from the peppers. 8.5/10

Black pepper beef udon: noodles perfectly cooked with tender beef and a nice flavored sauce. 9/10

Lamb skewers: well seasoned and crispy and pretty tender. It hit the craving I was looking for. I would order double next time. 9.5/10

Sweet and sour pork riblets: pretty good, but I suppose the pork could have been slightly more tender for my preference (still came off bone) and the meat on the ribs were a little bit tiny. I would still order these again but just nitpicking. 8.5/10

Overall, I was pretty happy with my first experience here and I would definitely come back to try more things and get more skewers. Again shoutout to the manager and staff who was super nice and welcoming, we were definitely the only white boys in there 😀.“

“Had the best food at Smoke Queen Barbecue: the tri tip, chicken, sausage, ribs, and delicious sides were all fall off the bone fantastic. Try the sesame slaw with spicy cucumbers, macaroni and cheese and fries. We loved the banana pudding, bread pudding, beers on tap, all with a great smile and playground to enjoy with our family. If you haven’t tried Smoke Queen Barbecue, you are missing out. So scrumptious!“

“Wow, they really do fill up the box where it'll barely close. I thought it was fake and just for social media ads. I had the kung pao chicken, orange chicken and noodles. Noodles were a little bland but still decent. The entrees though were as good as you'd expect from a chinese take out place. It's honestly 3x the portion size of panda express for the same price. This is my go to place for chinese take out now.“

“Seven Grams is a restaurant specialized in Chinese cuisine, especially dumplings and noodles. The service was good. The food was decent and pricing was pretty reasonable. We enjoyed our dinner, though nothing really wowed me.

Note: The soy sauce bottle actually contained both soy sauce and vinegar. The vinegar taste was quite overwhelming. It would be better if they were separate. I ended up skipping this and just had the chili oil instead.

* Shrimp XLB 4/5 - XLBs are soup dumplings and these came with shrimp and pork inside. They were good, but there was an aftertaste I didn't like. It was either gamey or fishy. I didn't really taste this from the other dishes.

* Wontons with Chili Sauce 4/5 - I liked the mild kick of these wontons. They were good, though the chilli sauce wasn't as addicting as other places.

* Scallion Pancakes 4.5/5 - These were very crispy and made a fun snack for the table.

* Pan Fried Dumpling 4/5 - These were good, though not outstanding. I was expecting a more crispy texture, but they were kind of soft. Some of them also had soup inside like the XLB. Not a bad thing, but not quite what I thought they'd be.

* Golden Prime Beef Noodle Soup 4/5 - This was quite spicy, maybe medium to medium high level of spiciness. It came with noodles, vegetables, pickled vegetables, and thinly sliced beef. It tasted like a comforting homemade meal.“

“I have been coming here for a long time. I have tried a few different dishes & every one was wonderful. But I moved to Anaheim a year ago. So I don't get to come here as often. But when I do I always get the Moo Shoo Pork with extra pancakes. The staff is ALWAYS happy to see me. They are so friendly. It's a great place for take out or a great place to bring the family along Either way you won't be disappointed.i highly recommend if you are in the area to go there?“

“Thank you so much to our server Owen and all the staff here at Yang Ming. My family came here to celebrate the life of my Cosuins husband Bo. He loved it here so much. You guys are so nice and attentive. The food is amazing and thank you for allowing us to celebrate here and deal with all our emotions. 5 stars all around . You guys are like family thank you for the sweet serving“

“extremely good Vegan food. i would highly recommend it.“

“Omg if I could give this place 10 stars I would. The environment is very welcoming. Classy and elegant but not too much where you feel underdressed. The food is so good!!! We had the chicken fried rice, sweet and sour chicken, and the pork soup bao. The rice was flavorful and fluffy with the right amount of fresh cut chicken. The sweet and sour chicken had that classic crunch with the perfect amount of sweetness. Just enough sweet and sour sauce to not overwhelm your mouth. The pork soup bao was amazing. When you put it in your mouth the bao burst with the soup and the flavors of pork and the right amount of broth.

Also I note that we have a small child not only did they give him his own sweet and sour chicken FOR FREE, but also gave him his own small children’s silverware.

The staff was on top of anything we needed and that wasn’t much. They made sure to cater to every need even the needs we didn’t know we needed.

Highly recommend! This place honestly should be in a tour guide or magazine. Like seriously so good!“

“Really enjoyed the malatang here. The broth has great flavor with a good balance of spice and numbness, and the ingredients taste fresh and clean. Portions are generous and pricing feels fair. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to come back and try different combinations. Overall a solid spot for malatang.“

“Delicioso 🤤, el restaurante favorito de toda la familia.“

“Even the setup is easy. I liked being able to pick my own ingredients and broth without it turning into a whole thing, and the bowl still came out balanced and full. The bone broth had a distinct flavor that held up the whole way through, rich but not tiring, and the add ins felt fresh with plenty to choose from. Taste was good, which stood out right away. Service was friendly too, just helpful when needed and otherwise low key. A simple meal, done with care“

“I don’t claim to be a connoisseur in Asian cuisine. I do like fresh, variety, spices, sauces and appreciate courteous efficient service. My second visit. Was not disappointed. The wait to be seated is long. Would not have waited but one person in our group was visiting from out of state and insisted.“

“What an awesome little restaurant that popped up here. Was looking to try something new and found this amazing little bao spot. The most amazing thing is how they fry these bao. The bottom is hard and crunchy and the top is soft, making a soup filled bao in either seafood, curry or the standard pork. They sell them in quantities of 6 and 2 to 3 is enough to fill me! Highly recommend a quick lunch or dinner here, you won’t be disappointed in the authentic flavors.“

“Nothing fishy about this place. It's a small family run business. Blame covid for the price increases and there are sign posted to make you aware of the increase. it's the best food and most reasonable prices in town. if you cant afford a 11 dish then don't buy or complain about it. These reviews are for the food not whiners.“

“OC Friends - looking for an amazing new Chinese food place or longing for a place to bring you food better than the long lost Yen Ching? Look no further than Royal Wok Orange. Ordered: Egg drop soup Cream cheese wontons Egg rolls Beef chew mein Honey walnut shrimp ORANGE CHICKEN❤️ Chicken fried Rice THEY KILLED IT!“

“Great hidden gem for rice‑noodle lovers in Irvine! The Xinjiang spicy noodles are rich and flavorful, and the Sichuan pepper fish rice‑noodle soup has a wonderfully fresh broth. Appetizers and the new milk tea drinks are surprisingly good. Staff are friendly and service is quick. The dining area is clean with a relaxed vibe. Fantastic value for money, perfect for casual meals or group visits. Will definitely come back.“

“I really love eating the beef fried rice at Lucky Chopsticks Cypress for dinner forever!! ☺️☺️🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️💖💖💖💕💕💕💕💞💞💞💞💞💓💓💓💓💓💓💗💗💗💗💗💗💗🥡🥢“

“juicy dumpling factory is seriously such a good din tai fung dupe 🥟 everything we ordered was sooo flavorful and comforting!!

the beef rolls were definitely my FAV. super crispy and crunchy on the outside with such a savory filling. i would honestly come back just for these 😭

the garlic noodles were so fragrant, garlicky, buttery, and perfectly chewy. you also HAVE to order the mapo tofuuu!!! the flavors just hit different 🤌🏼 so rich, savory, a little spicy, and sooo good with rice.

the sweet and sour spare ribs had the perfect balance of sweet and tangy, and the fried rice was yummy, simple, and comforting ♡

we also tried their new corn cheese with shrimp and it was such an interesting combo!! super creamy and cheesy, so if you love cheesy stuff you’ll definitely enjoy this one 🧀🍤

all of their flavored teas are really good too, but the strawberry yogurt drink was my favorite 🍓 it’s creamy, refreshing, and not too heavy.

such a good spot when you’re craving some comfort food without the din tai fung wait. definitely coming back for the beef rolls and mapo tofu 🥟♡“

“Excellent service and presentation from the servers to the owners acting as MC. Very organized. I'm impressed. I would recommend to do your event here.“

“taste really good and service good, the environment is really good also can singing here without extra money, delicious food and nice service, highly recommend, will come back again. Highly recommend the barbecue, really delicious and good.“

“Ate here with some friends a day or two ago, one of them suggested it was great and indeed it was very good food! I got sesame chicken, beef & broccoli with fried rice and lo mean, which was soooo amazing and the portion they gave was THE BEST considering I love me some good Chinese food!! 👍🏽
I was super FULL when I took this picture, just to give an idea of how much they give you on a 2-item plate!! Highly suggest 👌🏽“

“We love this place! I'll never go to Panda Express again. its healthy if you get steamed veggies instead of rice or noodles. I can get 3 meals out of it!😋❤“

“Small family friendly place. Food was really good, made fresh and very flavorful. Vegetarian friendly. Owner, Lisa is very sweet and attentive. Willing to modify dishes, level of spice, salt, oil etc per our taste.
Love the service here! I have already become a regular customer!“

“​I was in charge of ordering Chinese food for a big crowd for my aunt's birthday party, and since KBP Asian Bistro was close by, I gave it a shot. Honest review: seeing how quiet the restaurant was at first made me second-guess my choice, but I'm so glad I stuck with it! Everyone at the party devoured the food. It was amazingly fresh and flavorful, and the orange chicken was easily my favorite. We had zero leftovers, which speaks for itself. I'll definitely be coming back here for all my Chinese food cravings!“

“This restaurant came on my fyp so we de used to try it. I've only tried jajangmyeon once so I can't tell if what we had here is really good. We ordered jajang, sweet and sour chicken sauce on the side, walnut shrimp, salt & pepper pork and supposedly schezhuan beef but came out as beef broccoli. Didn't complain about the beef since it's freshly made. We love everything and portions are big. Atmosphere is super old.. hard to explain but clean and dingy at the same time. We will definitely come back if we're in the area. A must try.“

“Ok, you must get down to Pik Up Stix on West MacArthur Boulevard! The food is incredible, the experience wonderful, and the most amazing thing about this place is the Manager, Jesus, truly, he is a gentleman as he goes “Above & Beyond” for each and every customer!

Get down here, YOU’LL LOVE IT!!!!

Thanks so kindly, Jesus, you
make this place “Magical”

“Our go-to restaurant when we are starving at night. Authentic Chinese street food with right-on-the-spot seasoning. Location is in a shared kitchen facility together with many other small businesses. Clear window showing their kitchen so you know all the food are made fresh for you. A must try place overall!“

“The best spicy Chinese Food in OC/LA area hands down! They have been Michelin recommended for a reason. Their food has lots of depth of umami flavors with a good amount of spice with a refined touch. Their none spicy broths are especially good too. My faves are their dry pots, toothpick lambs, Qiao Jiao Beef. We also like their spicy ribs and boiled fish in chilli sauce, and Mao cai. Service is great too!“

“Honestly, Twin Panda Bowl was so good. The chow mein, spicy chicken, and orange chicken were all amazing and had so much flavor. The service was great too, and everyone was really nice. Everything was just perfect, and I’ll definitely be coming back again. I highly recommend this place if you’re looking for some really good Chinese food! 🥡🔥“

“Good old fashioned Chinese food delivered right to your doorstep. Friendly people ~ food delicious 😋“

“Wow talk about amazing service! The food was just as good as the staff. I’ve never had such good hot & sour soup. As someone who has been to China before this is the most authentic and delicious experience I’ve had in SoCal. Will definitely come back soon!“

“Our favorite family owned Chinese restaurant is closed on Sundays, so we tried something new. Mu shu pork was delicious (better than our other favorite) and we’ve also enjoyed the Chinese chicken salad, Peking dumplings, and vegetable chow mein. Great service, great prices, and extremely generous portion sizes (actually wish they were smaller as we end up with too much food!) Highly recommend 💕“

“Good Chinese food with family or friends“

“Been coming here for years. A family tradition place for us.“

“I believe their wagyu is better than their lamb (that’s my personal preference though).

I get the whole all you can eat thing, but charging us to clean the waisted food is crazy, especially without even allowing a take home box lol
It’s also expensive as well and their stuffed lambs aren’t accessible for purchase, which my kids weren’t too happy about. Who is really going to go out of their way to spend over $700 to win a small lamb stuffed animal LOL but anyway.
The Spanish bus boys were very polite. I appreciated them the most!“

“The food was great, the orange chicken was juicy while the beef and broccoli was savory. The staff are really friendly too. Jason had seen that he was out of orange chicken and offered to make more with only 20 minutes until closing. He’s is super friendly and welcoming of customers and I high recommend checking this place out“

“I ordered the chicken leg meat with dipping sauces and broth. Honestly, the chicken was great on its own. I didn't care for any of the sauces. The rice was a bit salty but still good.

The setup felt a little odd. There was a loud speaker on loop reminding Uber and DoorDash drivers to pick up orders in the back. It was super annoying. I really think they would benefit from having a host instead of relying on that speaker.

That said, the place itself was cool, and I liked that you can order from several different shops all through the same kiosk.“

“Fresh and tasty food. We usually do take-out.“

“A Culinary Gem in the Heart of Westminster - BAOS HOG Review Stepping into BAOS HOG, you're immediately welcomed by a fusion of contemporary decor and inviting ambiance. This small, yet noteworthy establishment stands out in Westminster for its innovative approach to bao buns, often known as "baos." Each bao is a masterpiece, with the Hog special possibly being the star of the show. The pork is succulent and flavorful, indicative of the care in preparation. Accompanied by crisp, fresh vegetables and a secret sauce that adds an unexpected but delightful kick, it's a harmonious blend of textures and tastes. Beyond the baos, the menu is an eclectic mix, suggesting influences from various cuisines, a bold move that seems to pay off. The drinks selection complements the food, with both traditional options and more unique offerings, indicating that the proprietors are aficionados seeking to provide a full culinary experience. Service is efficient and warm.“

“Our server Angelina was such a breath of fresh air. I am pregnant and had a difficult time enjoying my first soup (egg drop was too gloopy and strongly flavored for me) and she quickly suggested we have it changed. I ended up getting wonton soup which was WAY better. She was so attentive and made us want to come back eventually.“

“My husband and I come here at least 1X a week! The food is fresh and so good! Luis, I think he’s the owner is very friendly and, the portions are very generous! You can’t go wrong with the lunch special. It’s a small place but they have a few tables, but every time we come there’s always trays of food to be picked up! That says a lot that people order for their parties.“

“Good food and staff. They always do a good job and fast.“
