17 Best Chinese Restaurants near Novato

“Hidden Jewel!!“

“Food is always fresh , friendly people who work there“

“I've lived in Novato for six years. I've tried several Chinese restaurants and haven't been impressed. I've resorted to driving down to Ping's in Northgate One. That all changed today when I stopped at China Village in the San Marin Plaza. They know their stuff! Everything was flavorful and delicious. I'll be back!“

“very bad customer service. dirty forks on table. server was to busy eating her lunch to see if we needed anything. food was ok I've had better.“

“I usually get the prawns with vegetables in a light garlic sauce and it’s always cooked to perfection. The vegetables are fresh, never overcooked and the shrimp is fresh as well. I get brown rice with it and that’s never mushy or overcooked. Love this place!“

“By my personal experience I do not understand the 3.8 star rating. The service is great...in the evenings anyway. The food in the trays may sometimes need refreshing but the staff is always accommodating to make it fresh. I didn't give the food a 5 because let's face it...pre-made food is never as good as everything fresh to order but the food is tasty and let us not forget we are not at a sit down restaurant.. once again the staff has been great!“

“Me atendieron muy bien y excelente“

“Been eating in house and to go at this Chinese restaurant for the last 16 years. Family run and they always remember our order via phone or in person. Consistantly good, fresh made food. Best in town and we don't go anywhere else to get Chinese food. Pot stickers , won ton soup, chicken soup, prawns dishes and veggies are always great.“

“The best Chinese take out in the area. Great food, great portions, owner has worked there a long time and always treats her customers well. It is a steam table restaurant, so not a fancy/sit down atmosphere, but the food is consistently delicious and the service is very fast. My personal favorites are the fried rice, sesame chicken, and BBQ pork, however everything I have tried on the menu has been good. I highly recommend them if you are visiting and need a quick bite, and if you are a local who has never been, you are missing out!“

“Perfect stop. I appreciate the recommendation. Loved the fresh ingredients and the friendly quick service. Large portions of food you want to finish. For a strip mall restaurant it's comfortable. I'd definitely come again and I will be telling my friends.“

“Awesome food! Lunch menu is great. Too much to eat! But I’ll eat it for dinner too!“

“This was my first visit to dine in here. I have gotten take away several times and it was always good. Today I went with a colleague we had pot stickers, Won Ton Soup and Shrimp and vegetables. Everything was delicious, the pot stickers were the largest I have ever had and tasted home made. The soup and shrimp dish were both very good. We will be back again. Service was quick, the staff was nice and the place was clean. They brought ice water and hot tea for us to enjoy.

Parking: Plenty of parking“

“i’m glad i gave this spot a shot :) chinese-approved!

i was very surprised to see foo yung on the menu, a home cooked favorite among chinese locals but rarely seen on restaurant menus. this fluffy omelette packed with vegetables and shrimp, topped with an umami gravy brought me back home. the sweet & sour pork was also perfectly cooked.

do not expect overly friendly, in your face western service, but a nurturing & respectful presence of a (i assume) husband wife duo that will help quietly pack your leftovers & send you on your merry way with a filled stomach.“

“Stopped here for late lunch on way out of San Francisco. The place is small but the food is excellent!! We ordered entrees but they do offer a variety of lunch specials. If you can't eat in order take out, you won't be disappointed. We ordered Kung Pao Chicken, Pork Fried Rice, Singapore Noodles. Easy to get to off the 101.“

“Very nice people good food“

“This is the only Chinese food I eat in San Rafael. Sometimes, I crave it. Their shrimp fried rice, and chicken chow mein is the best I've tasted since I was a kid. That real authentic taste. Plus, I don't have to worry about peas and carrots in my fried rice (that's a no-no). Their rice is full of flavor. You know it when you see it because it's not white with stuff mixed in. I absolutely love this place. It's in the next city over but it's worth it...“

“Great food and people! Hard workers which we really respect!“
