50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Moraga

“The best service ever. Delicious food. 💯 recommend“

“I had their General Tso's chicken with a side of steamed rice, and it was super good! The amount was enough to fill up up and I still have about a lunch portion left.

Definitely plan on coming back. You know a place is good when you're willing to drive 30 minutes to eat there.“

“We were visiting a friend in Moraga and stopped by for dinner. Based on the recommendations, we ordered seafood soup, salt and pepper fish, and asparagus chicken. We were very pleased and all the dishes were excellent. Service was wonderful and attentive. Highly recommended.“

“The spicy broth here HITS the spot, like the broths in Asia, which is typically hard to find in the Western world. The owner was so sweet, and the food came quick.

The decor and vibe is also really authentic. I can't quite put my finger on what that je ne sais quoi is, but you really do feel transported to Asia for hearty, soul-warming bowl of noodles. What a hidden gem.“

“I real hole in the wall. No big sign so you have to know.

The best jianbing I've had outside of China. Crispy and not too salty. My wife said it's authentic Tianjin style.

The soy milk was amazing! Very smooth and slightly sweet even though it wasn't sweetened. No burnt taste.

Alas, he was out of tea eggs.

Friendly.“

“FYI: Not a Malatang spot anymore. Google gotta fix that.

Really really good food.

Orange chicken was nice and crispy, good cuts and well trimmed.

Cumin beef was tasty, well spiced, and had a good amount of fresh ingredients.

Chow Mein was really nice as well. I think it was chicken and minced pork belly. Pork belly was well spiced and the noodles werent too oily. Cabbage had some nice browning on it.

Steamed dumplings were good. I cant think of anything specific to say but definitely tasty and fresh.

Cute place. Definitely a family run place, nice and cozy. Will be my go to when I want Chinese. Highly recommend you give it a try.“

“Best Chinese food in Contra Costa County. Totally Authentic Sezchuan style. A must try for anyone who loves great flavors.“

“Such a special gem of a place! Perfect for group dinners too (make reservations!)- we celebrated the lunar new year with a vegan Chinese new year dinner here in their cozy dining room with such good vibes, and unique authentic dishes like lotus root and lychee in the sweet & sour seitan dish 🤯

It’s big enough to have a large group table (we had 12) and quiet enough to feel like you’re all celebrating together. This is very hard to find in the bay!

Grateful this place exists, bringing such good vibes and animal love to Oakland ♥️“

“The cook came out to chat with us! Yummy food!“

“I love their beef noodles! And the meat is not too bad - not chewy/fatty. Could use extra veggies or add a little more but otherwise it's ok. The morning silog are great! My daughter loves bangus so she orders bangus silog. We can't order bangus anywhere else (main stream restaurant) so this a treat for her. Breakfast has limited time so make sure to get there before it ends. My daughter and I order sesame balls to take home and eats halohalo for dessert (summer time treat) afterwards. We also order taho for winter treat to finished off our visit. This store is like a fast food place - first you order and pay for your food at the counter. Then wait for your food to call in and enjoy your food either eat-in or take out. Just like any other fast food restaurants.

I recommend for you to try it“

“Excellent restaurant. Had the braised beef noodle soup. GET IT! Staff friendly. Food tasty. Properly priced. I expected a “typical” Chinese restaurant experience. I expected a typical offering. Mostly soups with some rice dishes. Pleasantly surprised by the menu. Thank you.“

“The incredibly kind staff at this restaurant, Mei and Lai, opened their restaurant for our 80-person high school auction last week. Not only was the food delicious and plentiful, but they were so generous, efficient, and incredibly easy to work with. This is a very special place and the food is SO good! 5 STARS!“

“If you're like me, and you are obsessed with Xiao Long Bao, you will LOVE this spot.

It can be tough to get solid Dim Sum in the East Bay, so this is a much needed spot in Walnut Creek.

Their Xiao Long Bao are perfection, especially the hot and spicy pork ones.

Their Siu Mai is solid too - highly recommend the shrimp and pork.

Their sautéed string beans with garlic salt are top notch, too. Perfectly seasoned.

This is a great lunch spot, with quick service. Will be back again soon!“

“I enjoyed my Meal. I found the service excellent and Ti curry yum.“

“The Dumplings are amazing!“

“At this location, the fried garlic is served separately—a detail I truly appreciate. I also really enjoy their thin egg noodles, which strike a perfect balance between chewy and tender without becoming overly soft. However, the dish tends to be quite oily, so if you prefer lighter meals, this might not be ideal for you.

My usual order is the Number 1 without kidney, with the soup served on the side. I also always add fish cake as an appetizer. The total cost for two regular dishes plus one appetizer comes to $53.75.

What I love about this restaurant is how it evokes the authentic flavors of Thailand’s street food, especially the dry yellow egg noodles. While it doesn’t include traditional Thai-style char siu or wontons, the taste remains quite close to home.

This well-established Chinese restaurant impresses me with its surprisingly clean restrooms, likely due to my morning visits. Parking can be difficult, as only metered street parking is available. The branch tends to be busy, so clear communication with staff is important. Although there may be a short wait, the service is attentive and friendly.“

“traveling and yelped this .. just go..“

“Will miss the place“

“I ordered three orders of chow mein for my kid’s birthday party. They served them all in one big aluminum tray and it was enough for about 9 small servings.

I was really thrilled. The quality of the chow mein is outstanding, and they really made it easy for me to order the day before and serve it hot. I will definitely be ordering here again.“

“Stunning experience. It is elevated modern restaurant with Chinese cuisine offers short, creative menu of craft and delicious dishes. We’ve got chili wontons as appetizer, black bean chicken and mapo tofu as entrees. Everything were delicious, full of flavors, beautifully presented. Don’t forget their take on craft cocktails! Outstanding and friendly service was on point - checked us at very right moments. Will definitely visit again. Good for both family and romantic dinners!“

“Reasonably priced tasty dinner of Shanghai Soup Dumplings, Sweet fried chicken wings, and beef stew noodle soup. Delicate XLB and juicy. Wings were crunchy, meaty, and lightly battered and fried. It’s one of our “go to places” for Chinese food in Alameda. Small local neighborhood place with nice service.“

“Highly recommend this spot.

This is the style I grew up eating and I’m so glad I live walking distance. Prices are also very reasonable!

There is only one table so I would expect to just take out instead. This isn’t really a dine in place.“

“i been to this restaurant many times al the people who work there make you feel like home the food always delicious always . they very fast with everything and they clean and they always serving the food more than enough. i love this restaurant i highly recommended them for anybody’s looking to have a great Chinese food“

“I got the romano beans and the fried chicken. I didn't know the fried chicken was chicken wings--- which it doesn't say and I don't like, but I ate it anyway. Wanted to try the chocolate cake (which is on the online menu) but it wasn't on the menu anymore. Will come back to try other things another time. Good service and nice ambience.“

“A very delicious place in Oakland’s Chinatown. I had their shandong chicken, dry fried green beans, salt and pepper pork and chicken and they were all excellent. The shandong chicken is your typical orange chicken, but they did something to the sauce that gives it this dark toasted caramel taste to it. The green beans I highly recommend, it’s lightly fried and then stir fried with their sauce that gives it a rich and umami flavor. Their salt and pepper options, my only complaint is that I wish they gave more protein. But other than that, a great place to stop by in Chinatown if you’re ever in the area.“

“You definitely get your money's worth and the food is awesome.
I live in Newark. I drive about 30 minutes to get there but it's worth it. Every time I order something there it's always fresh. I've tried most of their items there, and everything is perfect. Staff is super nice and quick.“

“Looking for Valentine's dinner with family and came here as the places we wanted to go were packed. But so glad we did as the food was beyond expectation. We started out with the corn chowder soup ..excellent and best we've had anywhere. Ordered Salt and Pepper Fish with slices of onions and peppers, Orange Chicken with a tangy sweet unique flavor, honey walnut prawns, and shrimp fried rice. All were excellent and we'll definitely be back. I'd drive across town just for the corn chowder.“

“目前最喜歡的螺絲粉😍😋“

“While the food was really good, the service was even better. The team was super attentive and quickly moved us outside to a chill, pretty patio when we asked.
Our server remembered our drinks, suggested a killer shareable, and everything arrived hot and perfectly timed. The outdoor vibe was relaxed with zero rush.
Ideal for date nights or casual catch-ups. We’ll be back!“

“Favorite Chinese restaurant in the area. Food is fresh and delicious, seasoning is perfect, and I always really appreciate the kind service. We usually get takeout, but the restaurant itself is very nice. The MuShu Chicken is my personal favorite, my husband loves the Mongolian Beef. Every soup is delicious. You can't really go wrong here.“

“Yummy Chinese food! Potstickers are made fresh

Vegetarian options: vegetarian options available

Dietary restrictions: vegetarian options available, but it is an asian restaurant so dont expect a whole bunch of options for dietary restrictions like Kosher, vegan, nut free etc

Parking: located on the corner of a street, a couple of parking spots available

Kid-friendliness: kid friendly but a lot of spicy dishes

Wheelchair accessibility: not wheelchair accessible, need to go up stairs“

“Nice atmosphere but the best part is the food. Great selection with some hard to find items. They definitely know how to spice the food - can’t be beat“

“The food was good as usual. It was not very busy for a Sunday but the staff looked tired and not very enthusiastic. They should enforce dress codes for servers. The floors were sticky when you walk into the restaurant. The water glassed were plastic instead of glass. The restaurant needs deep cleaning and freshen up the atmospher. You can see all the storage freezers when sitting in the dining room when they can be hidden with a decor curtain or a trifold divider. They don't bring the bill to the table or accept payment at the table only at the cashier which is weird for a sit down facility“

“Great food and we will definitely visit again“

“You can never go wrong with Ming's!

I've been here for their lunch special a half-dozen times over the past year, and it's been consistently excellent. Great price for the amount of food, and every entree I have ordered has been great, especially the spicy eggplant with tofu. The portions are very generous too - my wife and I always end up bringing home leftovers.

My family and I often order takeout for dinner here as well, and again, have never been disappointed. Everything is exceptionally fresh - the veggie and seafood options are my favorites.“

“Been going here for 20 years. Never a bad meal!“

“A great spot for authentic Hong Kong-style food! The flavors really remind me of home — everything tasted fresh and comforting. The menu has a good variety, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion size. Service was quick and friendly too. Definitely a go-to place if you’re craving Hong Kong-style dishes without breaking the bank.“

“Excellent house-made noodles!“

“Lightning fast and consistently piping hot, this is our go-to for fresh and tasty Chinese takeout. The Mu Shu Chicken, BBQ Pork Fried Rice, and Mongolian Beef are family favorites, but we have honestly never been disappointed with anything else we've tried. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a delicious meal delivered in record time.“

“This place is hands down one of the best Chinese food I’ve had in CA. Taste and flavor is there and food is very fresh. I don’t understand why there’s bad reviews because it doesn’t reflect what I’ve had here. There’s just one guy serving tables here, so service can take a bit when they’re busy. But it’s worth it. Don’t miss out because you see a few bad reviews. In the Bay Area over all, most Chinese food tastes so watered down and lacks flavor. This place is great.“

“I've only ever ordered the food by delivery. The food is better than Panda Express. Also the portion size is huge and for a good price too. If you are looking for fast food Chinese food this is the place to get it 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“Food is excellent! Easy to order and take out and glad they remained open during Pandemic period. It was our "go-to" place for good food.“

“Was looking for a place to eat on my birthday new years day, my stepbro picked it out, he said he ate there 20 yrs ago, I was reluctant as it looked outdated and empty,but I was surprised when the food came in quickly, the staff was friendly and the plates of food were huge! I kept asking my bro if he accidentally ordered family size, nope. We ordered egg rolls, 1 order must have had 10 pieces! Delicious spare ribs, wonton soup, honey walnut prawns (jumbo!) Mongolian beef, they gave us almond cookies instead of fortune, that was a nice change,there was so much food leftover to take home, I'll be going back, I don't know how they can afford to give so much for so little $, very reasonable.the only thing was the place was so cold, we were both freezing. no heat!“

“I was so happy to have this restaurant open up a location in Berkeley. I've been to the original in Bellevue Seattle as well as their other locations in Seattle and here in the Bay Area since I enjoy their food so much. However, I think the Berkeley restaurant needs to work on the consistency of their dishes as compared to their other locations. I ordered the Mala Spicy Noodles last night and it was half lettuce instead of noodles with lettuce garnish. Fortunately, I asked and they graciously re-fired another order for me with less lettuce but when it arrived, they had the lettuce correct but now it also had less mala spice. I'll check again in a few weeks and will gladly change this review to a 5 star rating if they have the consistency fixed.“

“Excellent service and the food was delicious.“

“They have card now (with a 8.5% fee)! Oakland classic hole in the wall that gets busy including weekdays. I can on a Wednesday at 11:40 and by the time I left there was a wait. Fantastic value. Dry Hu tieu with egg noodles is superb 13.50. Coffee is sweet and strong and served with the pinh. Love the condiment variety too. Parking is tough but sometimes there’s spots in the lot kitty corner to it. I would consider relabeling to a Vietnamese restaurant, even though they do serve some Chinese dishes. I mean it really is both“

“East Oakland hood staple for dry fried ribs, chow mein, sweet & sour, and everything Chinese food. It's an old school hole in the wall. Mom and Pops owned joint. Food is always good, affordable, and on point.
They have Combo meals for a nice and fair price.“

“Becky’s Chinese restaurant has been a staple restaurant in the Rockridge area of Oakland for over 25 years. They have amazing lunch specials and family dinner specials. I enjoyed a lovely lunch with my Mom and here’s what we ordered: The Broccoli Beef lunch special, Kung Pao Chicken lunch special and chicken chow mein. Keep in mind that the Kung Pao Chicken was a little spicy so for those that can’t take spice I might skip this dish. Everything was fresh and delicious. Each lunch special comes with soup and salad and each entrée comes with fresh steam rice. They offer lunch specials from 11:30 AM - 3:30 PM. Their white steamed rice is always cooked to perfection…not sure how they get it that way, but it is very good and fluffy. Becky herself sometimes takes our order and is so nice and accommodating. There were several takeout orders being processed throughout our meal. Another good sign of happy customers. The parking in this area can be challenging, but you can circle the block and you’re sure to find a park nearby. The best part about going to Becky‘s is visiting the neighboring stores around the restaurant. There are consignment stores, bookstores, and a European market directly across the street called Rockridge Market Hall. I highly recommend bringing a group of girlfriends or your mom here and just enjoy the neighborhood, fun shopping and yummy Chinese food!“

“This is a must try no frills Cantonese dining spot in Chinatown.

The Peking duck was solid, if anything a little cold but the flavor was yummy. My favorite dish was the Char Siu, definitely not like the Char Siu we have back with our Canto folks in Tijuana, but it was nice to try the authentic one here!! The Chow Mein and Chinese Sausage Fried Rice were also shockingly amazing, they were perfectly balanced and paired really well with the chili oil they provide.

The servers were also extremely attentive and diligent; they welcomed us with warm cups of tea and didn’t have us waiting long at all. And as the cherry on top, as a group of 3 we ate well and took some leftovers all for only 60 bucks 🤣🤣. I absolutely loved everything about this place; the food, the vibes, the people, the price, but most importantly the quality of the experience.

10/10 from us, and even though this isn’t San Diego this place is 100% DAYGOEATS CERTIFIED✅📋“

“The service is excellent, so very friendly and accommodating. the food is DO VERY FRESH AND SO VERY DELICIOUS! Be sure to stop by, you'll be glad you did.“
