18 Best Chinese Restaurants in Santa Clara

“Nice ambiance and friendly People“

“It’s a straightforward Chinese (not Cantonese or Szechuan) restaurant. One of its signature dish is its Chicken and mushroom combo. I got it with egg drop soup and tofu veggie side. Protein proportions were generous. I have to return for the beef version.“

“Not my first time here. This is my favorite Chinese restaurant in Bay Area, simply because food tastes so good and consistent in quality.

This time we had:
Shang hai crab roe noodles
Crab roe fried rice
Mongolian Wagyu beef
Crab roe & pork soup dumplings

The food was amazing, as always. Everything tasted fresh and absolutely delicious! My favorite dish is Shanghai crab roe noodles, rich, creamy, and always packed with flavor. I also fell in love with the crab roe fried rice, even though it was my first time trying it. The Mongolian Wagyu beef was tender and perfectly seasoned. The crab roe & pork soup dumplings arrived hot, comforting, and full of flavor as well.

The prices are very reasonable for the quality of the food, and the service is always a 10/10. Our dishes started arriving less than 5 minutes after we placed our order, which was impressive.

This continues to be my forever favorite restaurant at Westfield Valley Fair, and I’ll definitely keep coming back.“

“Love, Love, Love this place! Lee's is authentic Chinese food. They've been in business for over 30 years and there's a reason for it. Delicious food, wonderful people that treat you like family. I love the walnut shrimp, pork chow mein, Mongolian beef, black mushroom chicken, and won ton soup. Hole in the wall, delicious food!! You've got to try it!“

“Possibly the best noodle soup we had anywhere. Amazing noodles, broth, great ingredients, subtle spices that do not overwhelm and mask the overall taste.

Clean and tidy place, pleasant servers.

Make sure to pay attention to their closing times or call ahead to make sure, as they close the kitchen a little earlier than what they have on their site.“

“This is one of the best Chinese restaurants in San Jose they have the best Mongolian beef in the Bay Area there chicken chow main is yummy and their lunch specials are great it’s a little pricey but it’s worth it.“

“Love this place. Have loved Dim Sum for many years. Now I have my go to place.“

“Some of the best Korean Chinese food I’ve ever had! Every dish was delicious and a huge portion.

Parking can be a bit inconvenient. There’s a small lot in the back, some street spots, and a small lot in front of the stores next door- but be cautious of a few unhoused people scattered around.“

“Great food. So yummy. Fresh food“

“Crispy pork belly brought us to this restaurant. It didn’t disappointed us, so as another dish - house special pan fried noodles. The dishes were tasty and big portion. The Fried noodles was crispy and topped with mushrooms, fish, pork, chicken, squid, bok choy… it was a good dish! We highly recommend it for crispy noodles lover.😋 Tea and a dish of peanuts was on the house 😁😁

The staff were friendly and nice. Never push for order and check. Credit cards were accept but no Apple Pay.

The atmosphere was very Chinese style. We recognized many of its guests speak GuangDongnese. So we guessed this restaurant must serve good HK style food. We will come again!😊😊“

“Excellent food and service“

“*USP: Korean and Chinese food. Black bean noodles and an expansive menu covering all the usual Chinese food favorites.

*AMBIANCE: large restaurant, eclectic and funky ambiance. Felt like it was some place in Hong Kong or China.

*Food: good if not great for the most part. The chef seems to be very careful or forgetful with the usage of salt though.
*corn soup: 2.5/5: sweet and bland. There was not salt at all. No amount of chilli powder, salt or soy sauce helped redeem this dish.
*chicken chow mein- 4/5- favorite dish on the table for all of us. Chicken was soft and didn’t have a funky smell or taste. Noodles felt fresh. Dish was greasy though.
*fried rice-3.5/5- came with mushrooms, eggs and some other veggies. Very nondescript and safe, felt more like a side dish rather than main.
*deep fried chicken in hot pepper sauce:3.5/5- I was expecting some fire in this dish but this was unfortunately on the sweeter side as well. The chicken had a very crispy coating per description.
*black bean noodles-3.5/5 after loving the version in Paiks noodle, it was difficult for me to like the version here. It was decent though, noodles seemed fresh and had a good bounce. But the sauce felt too soy saucy to me.“

“Pro: Food was actually very good! my mother in law, husband, kids, father in law all love it!
if you can eat spicy, I recommend the spicy seafood jiang jiang noodle.
Con: Music was very very loud, not suitable for kids or babies.“

“If you're looking for a convenient spot to grab a quick bite without breaking the bank, Joe's Chinese food is a suitable option. While it might not be the most memorable dining experience, it will satisfy your craving for familiar Chinese dishes without leaving you disappointed.“

“ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!!! The beef shank noodles here are the real deal. The beef is so tender it basically melts, and the broth is clearly the result of a lot of patience. But honestly, the lady boss is the secret ingredient, she’s so friendly that you feel like you’re eating at a friend’s house rather than a restaurant. It’s the kind of place that fills your stomach and ruins you for any other noodle shop. My diet officially starts tomorrow again :)“

“Good service and reseñable 😊👍“

“This restaurant is so much better than the one in Cupertino. It has an open kitchen, so you can clearly see that everything is kept very clean and hygienic. The dishes are cooked over high heat in traditional wok style, which gives them an amazing aroma. You can even see the flames from the kitchen while sitting outside. Every dish we order was good. Don‘t know why the score is so low“

“Came here with a friend and was pleasantly surprised. The grilled fish was definitely the highlight—crispy on the outside, tender inside, and packed with flavor. We also ordered a bunch of skewers, including beef, chicken skin, and sausages, and everything came out hot, well-seasoned, and perfect with a little extra spice. The portions were generous, and the food had that authentic late-night Chinese BBQ vibe. Service was quick, and the atmosphere was casual and lively. If you’re craving grilled skewers and spicy grilled fish, this place is definitely worth checking out.“
