50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Highlands Ranch

“I ordered the Shrimp Vegetables lunch special and received a large piece of watermelone in addition to the lunch special. Unlike most places, they serve a large portion of the main dish with the perfect amount of rice.
The lunch special comes with fried rice, but I prefered steamed rice with the shrimps and vegetables and my request was honored.
The vegetables are fresh and one can tell that everything is freshly made to order. The food is delicious and with their extensive menue, there is something for everyone's taste.
I love their lime infused water!

It is an authentic family owned restaurant; a hiddn gem, since it is not visible from the street, and more than reasonably priced, for the large portions.
Will definitely be back to try other dishes.

Vegetarian options: They have a vegetarian menu section with vegetables and many options with tofu as the protein.“

“I absolutely love Panda Express! The food is always fresh and delicious, and the customer service is top-notch. A special shoutout to the manager, Debi—she’s truly fabulous. Every time I visit, she welcomes me with a warm smile and makes me feel right at home. It's clear she genuinely cares about her customers. This location stands out because of her and the wonderful team. Highly recommend!“

“The food is usually pretty fresh and available. Service is friendly and quick, despite having to wait for some entrees to be prepared on demand. Atmosphere is just ok. I recommend the orange chicken and black pepper steak. They have very limited vegetarian options.

Vegetarian options: Only a few options, fried rice, greens, chow mein.“

“Chicken Chow Mein maravilhoso!! Atendimento atencioso e educado, bom preço, retorno certo!“

“This place is an absolute gem! My friends and I were referred to this restaurant while visiting the Denver area for a girls' trip. We were blown away by the quality of food and service we experienced. Our group enjoyed sharing the wonton soup, beef rice noodles, spicy garlic chicken, green beans, and the dumplings. Chef Owen was delightful and everything he prepared was absolutely delicious!“

“Outstanding quality and taste. Best chinese food I've had in a long, long time. It was fresh. Meat was tender. Vege's were crisp. Every dish had a different and delicious sauce. We got salt and pepper shrimp, eggplant in garlic with minced pork, scallion lamb, tofu with vege's, singapore rice noodles. All excellent. Great service. Thanks for the excellent meal.“

“We were in the CR area and after some google search, we ended in this restaurant that offering Chinese dumplings and dim sum. The prices were reasonable and suited its cafe style. The chili oil wontons, made in a Sichuan "chao shou" style, were a nice touch, though the sauce could use a bit more flavor. The noodles stood out as better choice for me, so I’ll likely return to explore more noodle options instead of the dim sum. Overall, this place seems to gear more towards providing convenient Chinese comfort food for local residents or others that seek trying something new in the area. Overall, it’s a good choice for a quick bite.“

“Very clean. Very yummy! I would recommend anyone to check this amazingly yummy Chinese food place out! I will be coming back bringing my loved ones! They made the food fast, fresh and not greasy!

Parking: If the restaurant is not busy or the other surrounding, businesses are not busy, there should be about 2 spots out front which is facing the busy road and about 6 to 8 spots on the side of the building. Just tight parking spots.“

“Servers here were awesome. They gave us a birthday coupon, and free dessert with a huge sparkler (it was my parents 59th anniversary). Music was a little too loud and clubby rather than background noise, which made it hard to hear. Food was excellent!“

“If you are looking for one of the best chinese fast food places on Arapahoe and South Denver look no further. Honey Basil is a great spot tucked away in a small strip of restaurants right off of the I-25/Arapahoe exit heading east. The Szechuan chicken has actual Szechuan peppers Iykyk and the honey chicken is fantastic. One of the great things they offer is getting a veggie instead of a side of rice or noodles as your side. If you always choose Panada Express as your fast food chinese, you need to switch it up and try out Honey Basil, you can't go wrong!“

“I love this place! always great food!“

“Tried this place for the first time today and it was excellent! The customer service was genuinely so friendly. The woman who took our order was so lovely and helped me to find what gluten free options were available! I had the chicken and vegetables with white sauce. It was delicious, cooked perfectly, and very affordable given the quality!“

“Very friendly staff. The Firecracker Chicken is my new favorite dish!“

“The food is delicious. Great value for the price. Thank you for supporting our Heritage High School 🏈 Team!“

“Great value and great service, I have been visiting Dragon Boat for over twenty years and they have always been consistent with well made and tasty food, the picture shows some of the veggies but below the pork is a ample amount of pineapple too, this meal was less that $12 and included a wonton, egg roll and soup!“

“I love the experience. It was my first time trying that restaurant they were very nice. I love the decor. I love the menu the food taste great.“

“Hands down, best authentic Chinese dumplings (and more!) in Denver. Warm mushroom salad is obviously highly sourced, curated to perfection. Dumpling wrappers of exceptional quality, and cooked perfectly. House made soy!
A little heavy on the hoison in the bao buns sometimes, but that caters to the average American I guess. Just ask for light or hoison on the side. Xiexie, don't stop what you're doing! Wo xihuan!“

“Definitely a place to go for family and friends or even a meeting, The food is wonderful the stuff is polite and friendly. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Food was really good left very full“

I’m very happy i decided to stop here definitely coming back as a regular <3 Very affordable food that’s actually insanely good!!!“

“Classic Chinese food, inside a tiny (but comfortable) dining area. The ambience with the decorations was nice. The staff were super nice, and were able to strike up a long conversation. The prices were fair too. I could not ask for anything better!“

“A jem in the area. Great food! Been here a few times over last couple years. Everything has been great. Lomein, Singapore rice noodles, chicken wraps, etc,. Tried several dishes. The Service is always top notch too. Never had a experience. Good variety on the menu as well, that ans decent prices too!! I'll keep going back for sure!! 👍👍“

“Actually had take out. It seemed the people dining in were having a great experience. Absolutely the best lemon chicken ever with light crispy coating and fresh moist chicken. The egg rolls and crab Rangoon were perfectly crispy on the outside too. Wonderful mango shrimp - delicious!“

“I have been going to panda express they are garbage compared to this restaurant I'm more then amazed at the quality flavor and overall service I received from them I would recommend to any one looking for a great place to eat 100% satisfied compared to the lazy panda go here double the portion for half the cost i
absolutely loved it!!!!!!!“

“Went here on a whim and I’m glad I did. The inside needs a little love but the food was fast and phenomenal. I got the chicken lo mein, chicken fried rice, and pork dumplings and they were all delicious. The sauce for the dumplings was amazing. Will be back“

“My roommate suggested this place. We ordered delivery. Yummy!“

“My girl friends and I had a wonderful time. Peter was such a hoot. Service was fast, we had such a good time celebrating 2 birthdays and got a little rowdy. Thankfully, they sat us in the back so it felt more private and let us stay until closing. Thank you!“

“We greatly enjoyed Hong Kong Cafe. We had never been there and we found it on line and noticed that they had very good reviews. We had a great meal for 13 people. The service was courteous, fast and excellent and the food portions generous and delicious. I only wish we lived closer so we could visit more often.“

“Hands down the best food!! I’ve been coming here for years and have never been disappointed. The staff is extremely friendly and it’s a cute little hole in the wall restaurant. I Highly recommend!! We always get the orange chicken, sesame chicken, and pork soup dumplings! We literally drive two hours just to come to this spot!!“

“Food is deliocus and service is good here. Love to come here with friends. Excellent Vietnamese food.“

“I actually used to work there in high school back in '80, been going there for 40 years, they are awesome, the mixes of sauces and meat choices is fantastic, could be cleaner but overall the best Mongolian or Hu Hot type of restaurant ever“

“Only "dollar a scoop" chinese food place I trust in Denver, and I found that out the hard way. I always get the chicken Lo Mein, honey chicken, and sesame chicken; food is always fresh, environment and food is clean, portions are GENEROUS - easily double a Panda Express "plate", and damn-near unbeatable prices. Highly recommend.“

“This place has the best food!!
We have tried 5 Chinese places since moving here- this has the best tasting food, and way better prices.
Totally recommend the Kung Pau Chicken
This is everything I got for $25 dollars.
The scoops are no longer $1.35, but the amount of food you get for $2.50 a scoop is great!
Bathrooms are gross- so we do take out.“

“Asian Chefs is our choice for local delivery. The food always comes fresh and hot! Our favorites include the fried rice in all types, pad thai, lo mein, and spring rolls. The staff is always friendly, and the food always arrives quickly! I highly recommend this restaurant if anyone is craving awesome Chinese cuisine!“

“We were pleasantly surprised by how good this restaurant is. The place was pristinely cleanly including the bathrooms. The staff is amazing and the food is even better! I had BBQ pork fried rice since it was their special for the day. The Thai Jasmine Honey tea was A+ as well. Best egg drop soup I have ever had. Will be returning and very soon. Thank you Asian Spice“

“My partner and I have been coming here for almost a year now. We drop in whenever we're craving their hand pulled noodle soup, which is quite frequently. The service is excellent and the food is even better. Could not recommend this hiddem gem more. Definitely come by if you're in the area.“

“Quick and easy delicious cuisine. (Beef broccoli and noodles Is the GOAT/Meta)

Great sized portions, and food is pretty high quality. Careful not to overeat!

Meal for 4 (4 big scoops) for a quarter or so over 10$....“

“Was taken here to celebrate my birthday with four friends. We loved the "quiet" (ie no music, high ceilings) as two wear heading aids. I ordered Pork and vegetables. It was delicious! Lots of food for a very reasonable lunch price. Wonton soup was also very good. Very good service. I will return.“

“This restaurant is a family favorite! We have been eating here for over 20 years! It’s always been our go-to Chinese restaurant for guaranteed good Chinese food! Our favorites: sesame, chicken, combination, lo mein, and happy family! Don’t forget to order the crab cheese wontons!“

“The food is pretty good and the price is also good. Service is mediocre and really no where to sit. But, if you're in the area and in the mood for Chinese this place is a hidden gem. I would give 5 stars but as mentioned above, service and seating is not the best.“

“I grew up in the area and I’d visit Golden Taipei quite frequently. I am back in the area and have visited here a few times. Same great service. The food is even better than I remember! The food is so fresh and delicious. My go to is the sesame chicken with fried rice plus hot and sour soup. Highly recommend!“

“Alexa is by far the person in Colorado that I would go to for AMAZING jams!“

“We have ordered to go many times, and the staff is always super nice and polite! This time, the food was exceptional, and large portions as always. I always get the wonton soup because it is amazing, and I tried something new and got the pan fried noodles. So delicious. My husband got the sesame chicken like he usually does and it was cooked perfectly today! Make sure you get the side of hot mustard if you like spicy!“

“I wish to dispel so much of the other garbage reviews in here (any less then 3 stars here should be ignored). 1. I don’t have IBS or other food allergies and am not a weak human when it comes to food as many of the other people reviewing Jade here seem to. I’ve tried damn near everything here now and haven’t gotten sick at Jack squat they offer. 2. This is a great lil “Whole in the wall” restaurant for those who actually appreciate these kinds of places and not just for the nostalgia of their own local food joints. I regularly order from their lunch menu and each cuisine I’ve tried has been been pretty darn good (This is not Crazy 5 star dining experience, again WHOLE IN THE WALL) 3. I think the shrimp is a lil watery though to be fair I don’t like seafood so it’s not my #1 choice & Not a big fan of the packaging of the Breaded chicken options as even just a 20 minute car ride home can often make it less crisp and when that’s your only option of eating the food since there is no seating, that kinda sucks + to folks like myself (& most) I like a crispy bite when I order that kind of food. 4. Portions are great giving me a good quality meal and being filling for a while to come.

Fav go-to is the Lo Mien and crab wontons. (11/10 kisses to the chef)

If you’re looking for a meal $15 or less and you want some pretty damn good options (AND ITS NOT PANDA), this is your place.“

“Tried this joint after receiving a mailer of a menu. We’ve been looking for a good Chinese takeout spot that delivers and I think we’ve found it. Their sesame chicken was the best that I’ve had here - lots of sauce and very flavorful. Their crab rangoon were great too. I judge all Chinese places by their pork fried rice and this one was good, but not my favorite, that I’ve had here in Lakewood. Their service was quick and easy and with two small kids at home, the delivery is truly a godsend. We’ll be repeat customers.“

“The egg foo young is extremely good. Reminds of China Town Chicago. Can't wait to try more of they're menu.“

“Food and Drinks are excellent! So fresh and tasty.
Service was friendly, and staff were on top of all our questions and requests.
The Karaoke room is so much fun and you get to play DJ and enjoy the time with your own personal group.“
