50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Federal Heights

“Absolutely amazing! No wait on a Saturday night at 7:00 was crazy! This place was quick to start your meal, friendly, attentive, and so much fun for my boyfriend and me! 100% recommend!!“

“Food flavoring was off. Ian, our server did a great job.“

“Another great Michelin Bib Gourmand find. Creative, unique Asian fusion dishes. Chef is not afraid to load up on the spice. Go here if you want something you've never had before! Been here a few times....didn't have a bad dish yet. And the staff seems happy and attentive and low turnover...another mark of a great restaurant.“

“Amazing food and drinks. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable !We will definitely be going back!“

“fantastic food with a laid back pleasant vibe, with nice decor and comfortable seating. very personable server names spencer who was spot on with his recommendations.“

“10 stars 🌟 Incredible experience from start to finish. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Very warm and comfortable environment. Extremely clean and open feeling dining space. Truly a neighborhood restaurant that will always make you want to return for more. Singapore noodles were amazing. The staff really was the highlight of the meal. I felt like family at the table. Holly was very friendly.“

“Some of the best dim sum around, easily among the top picks statewide. The flavors appeal to guests of all ages.
I’ve already returned twice within two weeks. It’s an essential spot for delicious dim sum and classic Chinese dishes.“

“Generally speaking the food is consistent. House made dumplings and noodles can’t be compared. I should have written something years ago about how great they are. They have another location in Washington Park but I haven’t visited. Overall my family and friends have coming over the years and we are just astonished. It used to be a space where restaurants kept on changing and FWTT has become a staple in Cherry Creek. I hope the community realizes this hidden gem for what it is. Great food, incredible wine and maybe one of the best patios in the area. Pork dumplings and the duck noodles are my go to with a spritz on the patio.“

“Very friendly and great food for a very good price. I feel welcome when I enter and have had a great experience each time I’ve gone to Chi’s Express. Chi’s appears very clean and sanitary, a welcome change to some other local spots.

The lo mein noodles are the best I’ve had at a by-the-scoop restaurant by a large margin, while the Wontons and Egg Rolls have good taste but aren’t very crunchy… I still like them better than a nearby scoop restaurant with similar prices.

The front of house is always busy during the day so the food is regularly turned over and stays fresh, yet the service is still very fast, both for the pre-made steam table items and to-order meals.

My favorites so far have been the Lo Mein, Orange Chicken and Double Mongolian Beef and Chicken, but I want to try the Volcano Chicken again because the first time I tried it was early in the morning and I think it may have been reheated because it was very tough and I want to give it another shot… As with most similar restaurants, it is probably best to go near lunch time to get the freshest food, especially since they always move fast if there is a line anyways.

I am a big eater, but a single two-scoop combo is still too much for me to finish, but I still sometimes get a three scoop combo and eat half before school, and finish it with the drink for a late lunch, which keeps me fed and satiated for the whole day and keeps me from spending too much at pricy vending machines or ordering delivery!

Some people complain that they add too much rice/noodles to the box, (imagine complaining that you got TOO MUCH food!) but compared to the scoops you get from Panda Express or other local shops, every food portion at Chi’s is very generous, and the container is almost spilling out every time I order! While most restaurants have a measured cup that barely fills the section of the container, Chi’s Express scoops on a much larger portion than any other restaurant would use to fill the two small sections in the to-go container, and the three-scoop combo comes with a generously filled second container that is larger than the side order containers from Panda etc… They definitely do not skimp, and the big side portions are great anyway because they are very delicious.

PS:
I am in no way connected to Chi’s Express… I have simply really enjoyed my new favorite before-school lunch spot that really hits the spot! The economy is tough, and supporting small businesses like Chi’s Express helps keep the community fed for cheap, without putting money into the pockets of the giant corporations that got us into this mess. Buy small, eat big!“

“Wonderfully little mom and pop Cantonese BBQ spot. I prefer this place over takeaway American Chinese food when I'm hungry in a pinch. I like the Char Shu, Roast Pork, Soy Sauce Chicken, and Spicy Tofu. The owners are very nice, work hard, and serve great food.“

“Once we found this place, it became a regular treat for takeout 🥡. Everything we order is consistently delicious. We've tried a variety of dishes and will continue to have this be our go to place for Chinese food. Plus, the owners are kind and proud of what they serve. Hard to find given the construction, yet definitely worth it.“

“It was a very good lunch. Dined in loved to see the restaurant had regulars, good sign. Food was hot & fresh. Loved the furniture cute, small, simple & clean. Even the restroom was clean always a plus! Food wasn’t pricey, definitely will be back.“

“Best Pho in Arvada! Had the pad Thai tonight and it was excellent. The hot and sour soup is awesome too. Everything we've eaten here is so delicious! Great service. Food comes out very fast and hot. Will become your regular spot 😋“

“We come here probably once a week - no lie. My entire family loves this place and we have never, ever had a bad meal. Literally our favorite place for Chinese in the area!“

“This was my second time here and we love this spot!! The staff is so attentive and kind, the food is delicious, and options plentiful!! They even gave us a gift of fried dumplings and shrimp 🤤 My favorite part is their sauce bar because it has so much to choose from with fun extras like sesame balls, spring rolls, cucumber salad and more! I highly recommend this spot! Forgot to take any pictures because I was too excited to dig it!“

“We were in for lunch, my first time in. Interesting concept, they come around with food carts to your table and you choose what you would like. They also do have a menu with more options. All our food choices were delicious but not many gluten-free options.“

“Food was bomb!!! Also affordable 😁😁😁“

“Too good!! Just moved down here and tried it for the first time, WOW. You can't beat the quality and the price, the coconut shrimp are HUGE and portions of everything are awesome! Great food, saw it won an award for best of Chinese food in 2025 and it did not disappoint. We will be going back, I want to give them all of my money lol“

“The gentleman at the register is always so pleasant, helpful, happy and enjoyable. I stop in when playing pickleball and it’s been consistently good for 2 years. Super clean location and they keep it cool in here so nice relief in summer.“

“The orange chicken was flavorful with the perfect balance of sweetness and spice, while the fried rice was packed with fresh vegetables and generous portions of shrimp. The spring rolls were crispy, light, and delicious. Every item tasted freshly prepared and well-seasoned, showing that the restaurant focused on quality ingredients and authentic flavors.“

“I'm not saying the corn flake french toast will definitely change your life, but I am saying the corn flake french toast *could* change your life. (Warning: the change might be that you dream about it every single day.)

I've been here a couple of times and had an a+ time. The cocktails and mocktails are inventive and well balanced. My favorite is Nice Melons! Favorite foods: obvs the french toast, the sichuan spicy eggplant, the japanese fried chicken, and the tom yum noodle. The furikake potatoes were meh and the f me up dog was a lil too weird for me. I also didn't love the ants climbing on a tree. I liked the bbq pork shoulder, but it was a little dry.

Overall, will definitely be back and try some different things. They also typically have rotating specials. (I do wish they took reservations!)“

“The food was so good, we came back again two days later! The BEST Orange Chicken I’ve ever had. They make it with real orange juice. Superb! Kung pao chicken was tender and wonderful. Drunken noodles - amazing. Sesame chicken was very good - too many onions though. This is our new favorite. We can’t wait to try everything on the menu.“

“My coworkers and I decided to come here on our lunch break. We have one hour. We got the lunch special-Mongolian beef with wonton soup, sesame chicken with egg drop soup, and happy family with hot and sour soup, and a giant combination lomein to share.

They were we all super friendly from the get-go, walking in the door. The place was clean and the environment was vintage and homey, like the old restaurants you'd see in a movie. There were fresh cut roses in vases that looked like they were from a home garden, not store bought. I could be wrong. But I'm pretty sure they were home grown, IDK why.

Now, THE FOOD... DELICIOUS AND FRESH!!! Everything was cooked to perfection and ABSOLUTELY NOTHING was was fine to waste. Although we couldn't finish because we had so little time, we all took it home and enjoyed it. I honestly enjoyed it so much and shared it with my daughter that we are actually ordering more today! Do yourself a favor and go get some. But be prepared to wait because if there's a lot of people... The wait will be long. That was the only downside. But the wait was well worth it!!! TRUST ME!!! 😋😋😋“

“Stopped by P.F. Chang’s today for lunch and had a fantastic experience. Tanner was our server and he was outstanding — super attentive, had great energy, and really knew the menu inside out. He suggested the right spice level for us and even hooked us up with a couple extras that made the meal perfect.
The Mongolian beef was on point, and the service was fast and friendly without being pushy. Tanner made the whole lunch feel smooth and enjoyable.
Highly recommend — if you go, ask for Tanner’s section!“

“really great food, good prices“

“Uncle Henry’s continues to fire on all cylinders, maintaining its place as the best fresh, authentic Szechuan/fresh roasted duck & pork Restaurant in the north suburban area. Every dish we’ve tried for more than a year has been richly flavored, well executed, and served at an ideal temperature. The husband & wife team who run the place are gifted chefs, as well as friendly, helpful, and very hard working, as is the rest of the small staff. This storefront restaurant has now become solidly and regularly very busy, which it well deserves. Try it, and try multiple dishes on and off the menu. These folks are running a top small restaurant, and their success is based on all the right things. Kudos to the Westminster Uncle Henry’s!“

“The food was very good, and the portions were generous. We really enjoyed the dumplings and fried rice. The only issue was that the “Open” sign wasn’t very noticeable. We thought the restaurant was closed and almost gave up after walking quite a distance. Other than that, everything was great. I’d definitely recommend it.“

“Dining in the service is always amazing and really fast! I always get Lemon chicken, chicken lo mein, fried rice, and egg drop soup. All are so good and a reasonable price! Best Chinese restaurant I’ve come across ever. Love that their lemon chicken is a breast rather than the breaded nuggets! Absolutely delicious!!“

“The fact that this place doesn't have 5 stars blows my mind. The food was excellent, the place cleaner than any restaurant I've ever seen, and the staff was lovely. Also the price for the lunch meal was excellently priced. Seemed to be family run so, again, I don't get why they don't have 5 stars because in my eyes they provided s 5 star experience.“

“Josh was an exceptional server. He had answers to every question we had and made a normal meal into a true experience. Shoutout to Chris who stopped by to check on us and is an amazing personality on the management staff. Great restaurant all around.“

“Good food and atmosphere.“

“We love your location with good parking, great staff, great food and the presentation of all your pretty, beautiful and colorful designer vegetables! It is a great date-friendly and a family- friendly wonderful little cozy locale!“

“We now live in metro Denver SE and it's been a few years since we dined at Little Ollie's; this time was as great as our last visit. Their lemon chicken is real, unprocessed chicken and the batter is light, flaky, without any heaviness. It adds to the dish, not loading it down. The lemon sauce is light and delicate, hinting its flavor. The owner has always been present and likely her presence assures the quality of food and service we've come to expect.“

“Phenomenal dining experience. Best Chinese food in Denver. We had the luncheon special for 15.95. The portions were amazing and delicious. The hostess helped out by explaining the dining process. Our granddaughter was a little wild so she volunteered to care for her so we could enjoy our meal. Definitely on our to do list next time in Denver“

“Live nearby , ate here a couple times before but for the 2nd time I got the Chicken Fried Rice ,Spicy. And it is just as good as the 1st time I predicted this. My friend got Shrimp in Garlic Sauce, and fried rice it’s tasty as well. Get some eggrolls as well. For a neighborhood place this place is good, nice staff as well. Yum Lu House!“

“delicious and wonderful service“

“I love all pho and have been looking for a good pho place! This is it!! I got my pho to-go and they give a good amount of jalepenos, Basil, and onion. I got a medium and that seemed to be a perfect amount. The container they served it in was great as well. I will definitely be back! So glad I found this place! The server was very nice and the atmosphere was cute.“

“Just found this gem of a place last week. Been there twice since the first time.… What I have tried has been on par with great Vietnamese joins I’m used to in Houston. Authentic, fresh and a great value. Combo noodle bowl is tasty and refreshing. Great grilled flavor on the meats. The Vietnamese egg rolls are a great app.- very tasty! Lunch special was good (I got the combo kung pow), but will stick to Chinese restaurants to order Chinese food, BUT will be getting pretty much all of my Vietnamese food from here from now on. Generous portion sizes (they don’t skimp on the meats) at a very reasonable price point. For me the icing on the cake was that they give great quality stuff for to-go orders (substantial to go containers, a quality cutlery set with high quality fork, knife and chopsticks). I’ve been in F&B for 25+ years and this is a tell tale sign that an establishment really cares. If in the Northgleen area, give them a try. (When i googled saigon basil, there a couple of places with the same name, the one I am speaking about is the one off of 104th and I-25.“

“SO YUMMY! My dining companion is not a “trained chef” 😂 whatever below reviewer “Vonna Somethin“ but my partner is picky and we love Peter’s! Our food was delicious and the place was booming with orders so obviously they do things right often if not always! It is the only Cantonese restaurant in Denver that we will order from! The owner is really nice and knows exactly what good service and good meals mean to a person.“

“What a great place. Very hole in the wall. And we're im from thats a good thing. Give them your order and few minutes later great food. No bs just fast and clipped service We got the sweet and sour chicken and beef lo main. We will come again. Those 1 stars have to be fake.“

“Food is excellent and staff is nice. No source of heat in Bathroom for ladies. No plug-,in. You cannot even put a space heater in. In winter it is freezing cold in bathroom. Cannot even sit on toilet. This does need remedied“

“Li's has been my go-to Chinese restaurant for years. They have delicious food with plenty of veggies. The sauces are so flavorful; I love the garlic sauces, kung pao and the beef with broccoli dishes in particular. They also have a great hot and spicy soup - great texture and the right amount of spice!“

“This food was so good, the service was excellent! Even though we showed up late, she invited us to sit at a table and enjoy our meal in the restaurant. We ordered steamed dumplings, pineapple curry, and drunken noodles. Everything was so good, highly recommend the pineapple curry.“

“I am lucky enough to live in their delivery area 14 years now, and it is my go to for take out.
I have not tried anything that wasn't amazing. Their Drivers are so Friendly and the food is so good, The Tofu Moo Shu and the Sesame Beef always hit the spot, Their communication is so prompt and professional, I once ordered a dish that they had a missing ingredient, they made it a simple fix. Treat yourself and try the soups, they are hearty and delicious. I highly recommend them“

“This place it’s really nice the service was so nice and the food is delicious I really recommend this place if you want to get full, Eat delicious and Don’t pay much this is the place
Please bring your friends and family to this place it’s just the best“

“Went there today and was very happy with their service and the food was absolutely amazing.“

“Best Chinese food in the Louisville, Lafayette, Erie area!!!!!! I have been eating here since 2005. I have had everything on the menu and there is not a single thing on the menu I don’t like. The lunch special is a fantastic deal!! You get so much food!! For just over $10. It comes with the entrée, both places for rice are stuffed full, soup, wonton and eggroll! I can usually turn it into a meal and snack.“

“Have had this place 3 times. 10/10 it’s amazing and flavorful food. Vibes are great inside, and mein is a super friendly host. Would definitely recommend if you are in the area.

This serving sizes are huge here was one of the meals I did take out for.“

“Yummy as always, it’s been a staple of our family for years“

“Always yummy!“
