50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Saratoga

“The best Chinese Restaurant in Silicon Valley! The food is outstanding 🥇“

“A cozy authentic Taiwanese restaurant in an area decimated by a declining Taiwanese population. This is an absolute gem, the cook should be commended!!

Southland taste recently closed ending 2 different families owning a south bay institution of Taiwanese food. If you are craving that taiwanese omlette rice or minced pork over rice I can vouch!

Wa shi Daiwan Lang. You can trust me if you are a Taiwanese foodie.

Re: negative reviews are poorly written and lack any thoughtfulness.

I've been to Taiwan 7 times in the last few years as well as am familiar when Cupertino was taiwanese before all the taiwanese, Koreans and Japanese fragmented left the area in large numbers or moved abroad.

You have to understand that the palate of people that enjoy other DIFFERENT Chinese cuisines will never agree with another Chinese cuisine, same with folks that hate on legitimate American Chinese food which is its own cuisine, there's British Chinese cuisine, Malaysian, Indonesian, Singaporean, Venezuelan Chinese, Chilean, Mexican Chinese etc.

Anything below a 4 is a garbage review with no effort they're either attack reviews from competitors or people that just can't appreciate the mom and pop style of taiwan.

Book a ticket (Taiwan) and eat in Tainan, Khaosiung, Taipei, changhua, jeelung and other places and you'll see what I mean.“

“This is the BEST Sichuan food I've had since I was in Chengdu. Highly recommend if you're looking for a mala fix!

The Mapo Tofu with minced pork was perfectly balanced in flavor. The House Chili Crispy Fish Fillet was lightly crispy on the outside and deliciously juicy on the inside. And the Sauteed Chinese Baby Greens had plenty of garlic which is just the way I like it.

10/10 I will be coming here at least once a month and telling all my friends about it!“

“The earlier one star review from Summer... If you look at her profile all she gives are one star reviews...not sure if she is trying to extort free meals in exchange for taking down her reviews but it sure looks like it. It sucks people like that exist...“

“Just had a dish of soybean seedling and it was surprisingly good! They had a perfect little crunch on the outside but stayed tender inside. The seasoning was spot-on—a nice savory, garlicky flavor with a hint of spice. It's a great simple side dish, super healthy-tasting, and feels light even when ate lots meats.“

“Ordered takeout, and pickup went smoothly. My bf and I ordered the golden chili rice noodle and the rattan pepper rice noodle - both were flavorful and delicious but we enjoyed the rattan pepper one a little more. They give a TON of noodles but are a bit light on the toppings. Overall, still a delicious and comforting meal.“

“Great spot for Chinese food in downtown San Jose. I've been to their Fremont location a few times, but I think this location is a bit better since the portions are bigger, and the food is a lot less oily. My personal go-to dish is the beef wrap and mapo tofu, both of which have been fresh, flavourful, and generously portioned everytime I've been here. Staff are polite and service is pretty quick. The restaurant itself is clean and can get pretty crowded during lunchtime. Overall, definitely worth going to this place.“

“Owners have a very friendly vibe here. Came here with a friend and we had a good time.

The fried eggplant is a must try if you don't mind it being a bit expensive 🫰. Crispy outside and soft inside with great flavor.“

“Jenny is the sweetest, her food is amazing and the menu has something for every dietary need! 15/10 would recommend“

“Nice ambiance and friendly People“

“It's not like China, but it's pretty good. It's like home“

“Veggie Garden is one of my absolute favorite vegan Chinese spots, and it’s a place I keep going back to.
One of the best parts is that they can customize everything for allergies and even cater to my Jain dietary restrictions (no onions, no garlic, no potatoes). Since it’s fully vegan, there’s never any concern about hidden ingredients.

I’ve tried a good variety of dishes here, but my favorites are:
• Spring Rolls
• Vegan Hunan Tofu
• Vegan Orange Chicken
• Gobi Manchurian
• Green Thai Curry
• Basil Eggplant
• Basil Fried Rice

I even love passion fruit juice and vegan chocolate raspberry pastry that they offer here.

Every dish is flavorful, satisfying, and made with care. Highly recommend this place whether you’re vegan, Jain, or just someone who loves delicious plant-based food! 🌱🍜“

“Dough Zone was great for a late dinner. The service was extremely fast (we waited less than a minute for a cold dish and got out of the restaurant within 30m) and the food was good. And best of all, the prices are extremely affordable. Many filling items are under $10 and parking is free. Would recommend!“

“Wonderful food Fast service“

“Fast delivery, good taste, suitable for family, friends, company colleagues to have dinner together, each dish has a taste, especially when it is served, the taste is super fragrant. Love it.“

“Handmade noodles and dumpling. Best siu Mai in the south bay. Everything we ate was very tasty. You cant beat the prices. My new favorite dumpling and handmade noodle get away. Check it out. You won't be disappointed. Beef noodle is on point if you cant decide where to start“

“My husband & I enjoyed a wonderful dinner there tonight. We used to go to another Chinese restaurant that closed, this one Yummy Kitchen is our go to now, the food was great, generous portions, healthy, not greasy, the garlic sauce for dipping was amazing. If I could give more than five stars I definitely would, the service was outstanding, the owner made you feel very welcomed, a great family owned restaurant. Definitely will be back.“

“One of the best and most authentic noodle shops in Mountain View! The flavors are very traditional and really remind me of home — every bite brings back memories. What really stands out is how generous they are with the meats, definitely more than most Chinese noodle places I’ve been to. Everything is legit and absolutely delicious. The service is fast, and the staff are always friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended if you’re looking for real, comforting Chinese noodles!“

“This is one of my favorite places to eat at in Cupertino.

QQ Noodle is a no frills, causal and quick service place. Don’t let that fool you though. The place is clean and the staff is friendly.

There is a QR code at each table and you scan to place your order. The waiters will then bring your food out to you. The food comes out quick and delicious.

What we ordered:

Liang Pi: This is one of my favorite dishes and not many places make this anymore. QQ Noodles makes my favorite Liang PI and this is a dish I will always order if I see it on the menu in both North Cal and NYC. The noodles are bouncy, the cucumbers refreshing and just the right level of spice. No frills deliciousness.

Sour Mustard and Grass Fish Noodle Soup: I tried it with wide noodle but next time I think I will get the round. The wide noodles are hand pulled which have that great texture and chew. It is done well so there is not a mouthful of dough like some other places. Fish is plentiful and so is the portion of sour mustard.

Large Plate Chicken Noodles (No Bone). Not on their printed menu, this was an option when you scan the QR code. They use chicken thighs and its braised with potato. Flavorful and just the right level of spice thats too spicy but offers a little kick for flavor.

If you are in the neighborhood, stop by for a quick meal. TP tea in the same strip mall is also a wonderful Bubble tea place that makes their drinks with brewed tea.“

“There are many choices for a good meal in Campbell. This family operated restaurant has been serving our family delightful Chinese meals for more than 20 years.“

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

“A good Chinese restaurant with above average food. We tried the cabbage and pork boiled dumplings, the steamed pork soup dumplings, and the pan fried pork soup dumplings. The pan fried soup dumplings were the best – good flavor, crispy bottoms, and juicy soup inside. The boiled dumplings were only okay. I thought the pork filling for the boiled dumplings was a bit musky, and I found a piece of gristle in one dumpling. The steamed pork soup dumplings could have used more soup but were otherwise fine. We also ordered a side of cucumber salad, which was decent overall but a bit salty and garlicky. The service was brisk and professional. They brought us rice for no extra charge – a nice touch. We thought the atmosphere was pleasant overall, with warm lights and plants.“

“I’ve been CEO noodles since its grand opening. Already ordered multiple time for my family and friends. Highly recommend the takeout foods in canned containers if you want to save up for one week in fridge, ask the staff for the canned items, they even give you discount for order over $300. My friends all love the beautiful glass bottles from 8oz to 16oz, especially the veggie appetizer paired with rice,noodle or even salad.“

“Love this place! The food is amazing, and the elderly woman who took my order went into the kitchen to cook a delicious meal. Places like this deserve more appreciation. I will definitely be coming here often from now on. Best! 🍶🍛🍘🍚🍙🥡🧧🇨🇳🥢🥮“

“Ox 9 in Cupertino is consistent in quality with all other locations I've tried. I always enjoy the Lanzhou hand-pulled noodles for their noodle texture and broth flavor--incredibly soothing and satisfying. Looking forward to visiting this location more as the weather cools down 🙂‍↕️“

“I truly appreciate the authenticity of Chinese cuisine, and the exceptional culinary skills showcased. The special tea duck, in particular, captivates my taste buds with its exquisite flavor. Each bite is a delightful experience, making it a standout dish for me.“

“good place，“

“Ordered take out and was pleasantly surprised at the meal. Good quantity of food. Had good flavor. Will try it again. The interior is a bit shabby in a very nondescript old strip mall with no character. Most would drive by and never know its there.“

“Food is nice and their tomato soup is my kid’s favourite. Their staff is friendly too.“

“A corporate take on Asian food, the quality and selection is good. Service was polite and attentive. The atmosphere is very comfortable and clean.

The parking lot at this location can be challenging at times due to the other businesses sharing it.“

“Very good food! Fresh, tasty, saucy.“

“We got the nanjing roasted duck and beef noodle soup here, and they were both very delicious! I would definitely come back here again. The roast duck was cut well, and its skin was very crispy. The sauce was special and complemented the duck well. I can see why this was highly recommended here. As for the beef noodle soup, it was on the sweeter side, and the beef tasted like it was red braised. If we get the same next time, we definitely need to get some plain rice to balance the saltiness and sweetness.“

“I was surprised by the large portion sizes. The waitress made great recommendations! Everything looks great, tastes great and this is a great go to spot I’ll go to whenever I am in town!“

“We love how fresh these buns are manually made. They are delicious with a few different interesting flavors. The spicy mince pork and tofu buns are our favorite. It still tastes good the day after. It may seem pricy, but the portion of each order is large, so it's totally worth the money. Only gets 4 stars from me because the frozen wonton have so little meat. They tasted great though, but not much filling at all. Generally, we're happy with the food and the super fast service. Definitely come back for more bao buns, but probably not the wonton.“

“Great shanghainese place. Get the pan fried pork buns 5/5 and the xiao long bao soup dumplings 5/5. The place is small so expect to wait a few minutes during lunch. If you are looking for dumplings and in Mountain View this is the place to try.“

“Excellent food and service“

“We came to Ping’s Bistro for a weekend lunch and were completely blown away by the vibrant flavors, beautiful presentation, and high-quality ingredients. The restaurant offers authentic Yunnan and Dai-style Chinese cuisine — dishes that are aromatic, balanced, and full of depth without being overly heavy.

We ordered a mix of dishes to share:
• Dai Style Deep-Fried Pork Ribs – Crispy on the outside, tender and juicy inside, perfectly seasoned with a hint of lemongrass. The dipping sauce was tangy and refreshing, cutting through the richness of the pork. A must-order appetizer!
• Fried Rice with Boletus, Green Pepper & Beef – One of the best fried rice dishes we’ve ever had. Each grain was infused with wok hei and balanced beautifully with earthy mushrooms and mild heat from green peppers.
• Stir-Fried Chayote Leaves with Dried Chili Peppers – Fresh, tender greens stir-fried to perfection with garlic and dried chili. Simple, clean, and full of natural flavor.
• Signature Grilled Fish with Lemongrass – The star of the meal. The fish was grilled to a beautiful char and topped with fragrant herbs, garlic, lime, and chili. The lemongrass aroma elevated the dish to another level — spicy, citrusy, and deeply satisfying.
• Sautéed Black Termite Mushroom, Maitake, Cordyceps Flower Velvet – A rare treat! The mix of mushrooms gave layers of texture — chewy, soft, and crisp — with an earthy umami flavor.
• Country-Style Sautéed Pork with Eggs and Black Fungus – Homestyle comfort at its best. The soft eggs and wood ear mushrooms soaked up the sauce beautifully, creating a rich, balanced bite every time.
• Sautéed Beef with Pickled Mustard – Tender beef slices paired with tangy mustard greens and red peppers — a bold yet harmonious flavor combination.

Every dish came out piping hot, beautifully plated, and perfectly portioned for sharing. The flavors were authentic, and the seasoning was carefully balanced — not too oily or salty.

The restaurant’s atmosphere is calm and modern, with large windows that bring in plenty of natural light. Service was attentive and efficient; our server helped us select dishes according to our spice preference (“less spicy”) and ensured we had a smooth dining experience.

For anyone who loves discovering regional Chinese cuisines beyond the usual Cantonese or Sichuan offerings, Ping’s Bistro is a must-visit. It’s perfect for group dining or a casual yet refined family meal.

- Favorite dishes: Dai-style pork ribs, grilled lemongrass fish, boletus beef fried rice.

- Spice level: Adjustable – just ask for “less spicy” if you prefer mild.

- Portion: Generous and great for sharing.

Highly recommended — this place deserves way more attention in Cupertino’s dining scene!“

“I had lunch here for my 1st time. I will be back for many more lunches. Thank you folks very much and I’m looking forward to scarfing my left overs for dinner.“

“3.5/5.

Average neighborhood Mongolian grill. If you want Mongolian grill food it would work for you. If you have shellfish allergies, or maybe any food allergy, I would avoid this place. They cook by dragging the food around the grill once per person instead of a space they clean like the larger grills will do. They just place the next bowl immediately after and drag it around across the previous persons stuff. I was eating shrimp and I eat spicy, so for me it wasn't an issue. Sucks for the person following me, and sucked for my son (9) as he followed a spice lover and his dish ended up too spicy for him to enjoy. He was pretty disappointed.“

“We really enjoyed our meal here. The green bean stir-fry was crispy and delicious, the Mongolian beef was tender and full of flavor, and the noodles were cooked perfectly. Everything tasted fresh and authentic. Definitely coming back again!“

“This is a solid dim sum place with good food overall. Prices were fair, except for the pan fried bao with translucent skins, which were way overpriced. We enjoyed the shrimp chang fen and the Chinese broccoli. The har gow had nice chewy skins, but the filling inside was only so-so. I was not a huge fan of the sticky rice wrapped in lotus leaves because the filling was made with ground meat instead of whole pieces. The staff were efficient and friendly. We enjoyed choosing our food from the roving dim sum carts. I ordered shou mei tea, which tasted fine.“

“Five stars. And we are very picky eaters having kept second home near in China for decades, dined at countless high end restaurants as we traveled all over mainland China, HK, Singapore, etc.

The entire menu is very good but let me pick one item to highlight: their Sichuan style dry fried green beans are incredible and are the only truly authentic Sichuan version I've found anywhere in Bay Area. Their version is perfect, so much so that I would gladly make the 20 min drive to Hunan Impression if that item was only thing on their menu !“

“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.“

“There aren't too many Korean Chinese cuisine restaurants around the area, but this is one of them! The portions are huge. We ordered a sweet and sour pork and a salt and pepper squid, and we had so much leftovers. We also tried the hotteok on their dessert menu. Everything was delicious. The service was very attentive. Overall, a great experience and worth trying. Not sure if they have a parking lot, but we just parked on the street in front of the restaurant.“

“So freakin awesome. Tasty and spicy noodles with so much flavor.“

“I'm not big on reviewing restaurants but the first one that popped up was a ludicrous one star review, judging by the pictures the reviewers is ether a slob or drunk, or both. I've been coming to Tao Tao since the 80's and it's always been our go to Chinese Restaurant. Food is excellent, we always include Tao Tao Beef and Broccoli Beef. Service is always quick and polite. The Cocktails are killer, especially the Mai Tai, and Long Island. One downside is it is a bit pricey after the pandemic, but considering a fast food combo is now over $15 it isn't that bad.“

“Best vegan food in Palo Alto. I eat here as often as I can. FYI, it's cash only for smaller orders. Very highly recommended.“

“Love this place. Just moved nearby in 1 South apartments and this restaurant is conveniently located across the street in san pedro square. Food was great! Service was awesome and love the vibe. I’ll def be back. Currently exploring my new neighborhood/ downtown and this spot stood out due to service and food quality.“

“Food has great flavor, the menu is very complete and their portions are very generous“

“This location has changed several restaurants, but I haven't tried it since it changed to cooking Cooking .

The food was surprisingly good, and although the price was a bit high, it was well worth it. pork neck with bitter melon $22 , salt egg yolk with fish & pumpkin $24.50 , salty fish with pork clay pot $24.50 all good!
Especially the bitter melon, it is probably the best I have ever eaten, the cooking time is just right, the pork neck is very soft, but it is full of fragrance.

The service is very warm and friendly! The tables might be too close together and it's easy to hear other people's conversations.“
