13 Best Chinese Restaurants near Englewood

“Small little shop, but my goodness! Stopped by this evening just to get a few little snacks for some fun with a movie (steamed dumplings and some egg rolls). We were met with the sweetest lady who not only took our order, but confirmed which vehicle we came in and said that she’d bring our food out to us. She was so cheerful and so happy! Her vibe was absolutely uplifting! Once we got home and tucked into our snacks, the food hit the mark as well. Great food (appetizers anyway) and a great experience tells me we’re going to be going back again and again. A+!“

“This place is a gem. Went there for the first time, and asked for suggestions. Haley ( hope i got it right), was so pleasant, helpful and very efficient. The had pork egg roll, and chicken pad thai. Both were delicious. I wasn't expecting great pad thai, but it was! Will definitely keep going to this place. PLEASE keep up the great cooking.“

“Creative cuisine presented like art.“

“Great atmosphere and super friendly staff!
We got the lunch specials which came with generous portions for just under $20.
The food got the job done and is good Chinese food.
Pictured is the General Sao, which had the right amount of kick.“

“This is literally the only edible Chinese food in Venice. It’s not my all time favorite, because I come from NJ and NYC where the greatest Chinese takeout in the country is. But there are some pretty good things here, which is excellent compared to every other place in Venice. The wonton soup, boneless spareribs, sweet and sour pork, egg roll and general tso’s chicken are all good. I go here sometimes once a week and don’t get tired of it. The only things I haven’t liked from here are the bourbon chicken, which was really dry and needed a lot more sauce and the fried rice, I really don’t like the fried rice here. It’s the only place I’ve ever asked for white rice with a combination platter. The service is the fastest I have ever comes across. My food is always ready in 5 minutes without fail. It’s definitely worth a visit. It’s 4 stars in Venice. In Sarasota, it would be more like 3 stars. Still good either way.“

“Love the food and the amazing service. The older gentleman that owns the place runs a tight ship. He’s always courteous and delivers good value for the money. Plus, they are one of the few Chinese restaurants in town that offers a poo poo platter. If you’re looking for a charming environment to eat in, this is not the place. This is more for people that are looking for quality Chinese food that’s either takeout or delivery.“

“This used to be my go-to place, but my last experience was bad. They only had brown rice as a side. My bowl was probably 80% rice, 10% broccoli, and maybe 10% chicken. I was so sick of rice that I threw half of it away. I came in again today (1/6/24) around 10:30, and my experience was so much different. The shorter lady who prepared my food was very friendly and apologized for my wait, even though my wait was mostly due to the 3 slow customers before me. She ended her break and quickly prepared my food. She allowed me to split my side between super greens and chow mein. I ordered the Teryaki chicken. I felt she was very generous with it. My bowl was more like 30-40% chicken, and the rest split between the sides. The chow mein tasted fine. The super greens were a tad greasy. I assume they make it on the same grill as some of the meat. I thought they tasted really good. If you're a healthy veggie purest, you might disagree. I wanted to leave a few dollars for the staff due to my positive experience, but I did not see a tip jar. They did have a charity jar. Thank you to the staff for the filling meal.“

“We are here visiting family and wanted something other than fast food and burgers.
THIS PLACE IS A HIDDEN GEM. Fresh food made to order and it was great. Very tasteful and the family is full. Thank you for the great experience we will be back.“

“I made a large group order for work on Saturday for about 20 people which I placed on Friday. The staff here is exceptionally friendly and very helpful. Placing the order was nice and easy and when I picked it up the next day everything was ready on time, they helped me load my car and packaged everything securely in boxes so there would be no leakage.
The food portions were plentiful and everyone absolutely loved their lunch!!! Thank you so much for making our Saturday lunch special.
You have a great team and amazing food!!“

“I loved this food! It was my first time trying it tonight, my son got the sweet and sour chicken, which I’ve found to be over breaded and soggy at other places, it was light and crispy perfect here! I also ordered the curry chicken, so delicious, perfect amount of heat and flavor! And we ordered the pork lo mein which was also great! I was so happy to be satisfied with Chinese food in North Port for ONCE!!“

“Ordered despite some really negative reviews. Was ready within 10 minute for pickup. Hot, fresh, good flavor chicken chow mein lunch special. A very generous portion and included a drink for just under $10. Photo taken after eating about half. Generous portion indeed.

Added photo of lunch special Moo Goo Gai Pan also good and significant portion.“

“I don’t know how people can complain about the food. Especially this place. Always yummy and cooked well. There was one time we went and they served the wrong dish. Once. But I’ve been here many many times. Decided to finally leave a good review. I always get the sweet and sour chicken and rice, general chicken and rice, wonton soup, egg rolls, and/or other things randomly sometimes. Always good food. And I’ve never been sick eating from here. The food is served hot, so hot when I get home I gotta blow on it for a short bit, So never cold. The food is always filled to the brim of the take out dish. Well worth the price in my opinion since I usually stuff myself and still need to put left overs in the fridge. Cashiers are always nice and never wrong with the spare change. This is the only and best Chinese food in the area in my opinion. Highly recommend ordering out from here. 10/10“
