17 Best Chinese Restaurants near Seaside

“Great little hole in the wall Chinese food place. Quick service, great food, a mix of Chinese-american and for authentic Chinese dishes. I had the roast duck wonton soup and it was excellent. 👌 They even gave me a free appetizer (Crab Rangoon).“

“My family and I have been coming to The Orient for over 10 years. This place is the best. It's run by the same family and the deliciousness of their food hasn't changed either. The beef Pho is great, best around I think. I really like their fried rice, salt pepper squid and egg foo young. Pretty much everything here is good. Their lunch specials are deal too.“

“Lucky Bamboo is open for takeout during the Coronavirus shutdown. My wife and I got takeout last night. We had chicken chow mein, beef with asparagus, and chicken with black mushrooms. The food was delicious, fresh, and plentiful. The person who helped me was very friendly and appreciative to have the business.“

“This Panda Express is pretty much what you’d expect. The food is reliable, the flavors are consistent, and most of the time it’s fresh. Every now and then some of the less popular items can sit too long and end up a little cold, but when it’s fresh the flavor is great.

Wait times are usually around 5 to 10 minutes, which isn’t too bad. I usually get the Bigger Plate with Orange Spicy Chicken, Walnut Shrimp, and Beijing Beef, and it always hits the spot.

Overall it’s a solid and dependable place when you’re craving Chinese food on the go.“

“We were looking for a place that offered seafood without breaking the bank. This was the place. We got our seafood fix with shrimp bags and crawfish bags and the others in our group who don't like seafood were able to get Chinese food. Win win for everyone.“

“New to the area and I give them 5 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ I ordered a combination plate half fried rice half chow mein and salt and pepper chicken extra garlic add peppers…. Very very tasty. I’ve tried other restaurants in the area and this one is my favorite!!!“

“Decem and QQ gave us the BEST service we have EVER received. No exaggeration. They provided our group with such a wonderful experience and ALL of our food was amazing. We had chow mein, wings, Mongolian beef, sweet & sour chicken, rice, wor wonton soup, ginger tea, and the sesame seed dessert balls (I don’t remember what they were called). Above all, they treated us like family. We will absolutely be having more family dinners here. If you are reading reviews to see where you should go to eat this is THE place to go. P.S. You must try the chicken wings!“

“I enjoyed the food, the wait was a little long, but there was some language barriers, the waitress was nice but didn't quite understand some of our questions, the hostess was very helpful and answered our questions about the selections on the menu, and made sure our order was right. I loved the design, pictures, and overall atmosphere of the restaurant.“

“Absolutely fantastic! Full Moon is just the spot that Alvarado Street needs. The menu was loaded with classic and traditional dishes. We found ourselves enjoying a bowl of hot and sour soup with a side of spicy sauce wantons! It went perfect with a few cups of green tea. To bring everything together we had the Szechuan scallops. Can't get enough of there wood ear mushrooms. 🍄 The service was very professional and we felt cared for throughout our meal. Will be returning soon to try more extravagant dishes.“

“We were visiting Carmel on Monday forgot the kids foods so we found China Delight. I ordered my foods didn't wait long. I told the waiter that I forgot my kids foods and we saw their restaurant and give a try. The waiter asked me if I wanted utensils and I said Yes, please!. I love how he knw how to take care a customer. I didn't think of asking cuz I were in a hurry to go. So I will give 5 stars to the waiter for his outstanding service.“

“We ate dinner here based on the recommendation of a friend. We were surprised and delighted at how good it was! Everyone loved their dish. Green Beans, yum. Fried eggplant, yum, veggie dumplings, yum. Someone in in our party liked the sweet and sour chicken and the wings. Ask for Jimmy, a very fun and kind server!“

“Do not sleep on Chows Szechwan Restaurant!

My party and I (6 of of us in total) were on a standby/waiting list for a table at a near by restaurant. We waited 35 (like we were told) and returned to then be told it would be ANOTHER 20 minutes to wait! So we left and decided to head to Chows, and oh my god am I so happy happy we eneded up there!

Each person ordered a main, a side of chicken fried rice, some potstickers and a bowl of white rice. We had some beers, some sodas and an iced tea. The food was AMAZING, the service was cheery and fast, and the prices were very reasonable.

I would recommend Chows to anyone looking for a tasty group meal!

“REALLLLYY great food!! place is so packed though and really tiny. i can see why so many people were eating in though!

if you’re a party of 2 or more though they charge you 18% automatically, which i thought was silly, but oh well! great food, very friendly staff“

“I thought it was a bit expensive for take out but when I got home it was the best food I have ever picked up and am really excited to try new items in store since the take out was so good. It was also extremely easy to just call in and order they let me pay when I picked it up. I ended up taking a printed menu home since they offer them!“

“It appears that many people get take out here. There were not many people dining in, but those who were, appeared to be regulars. The food was fresh, hot and cooked just right. The service was good, just not that personable. The atmosphere was not bad but didn't feel inviting either.“

“I love eating here. The honey walnut shrimp is my favorite! We've eaten here twice, and i can't wait to go back. The servings are great for the price! It's clean and kid friendly. The staff are friendly as well. It's right next to trader Joe's and across is Chipotle. The parking isn't that bad either.“

“Good food & service. Great for banquets. Lots of parking.“
