50 Best Chinese Restaurants in Tampa

“This is real authentic Chinese cuisine more specifically it’s northern Chinese cuisine. Very similar to what you would find in Beijing or Shenyong. They had a great selection of beef, chicken, pork, lamb, shrimp, dishes, and skewers. They also had more exotic fair, such as squid, frogs, chicken feet, pork belly, beef heart, beef tripe, and duck bleed. It’s pretty awesome! The service was great even late at night and we really loved the cucumber salad and the grilled eggplant. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who loves authentic Chinese cuisine.“

“Was my first time ...the best Chinese food I have ever had ..Very large portions to share ..They have a desert cart that comes around...will definitely be back with the family! 5 stars from me for sure!“

“We went for dinner tonight on Mother's Day based on Google Reviews. The food was a beautiful, fresh, and DELICIOUS! The owner came out to see how everything was and gave us a little background story & family history (which I always love). Super friendly, family oriented. DELICIOUS! Try it!! Tell your friends. Definitely a hidden gem 💎“

“Great service, delicious food. We loved everything we ate and will be back to try more.“

“Great customer service and friendly people!“

“We were a party of 6 and everything was perfect the service, ambience, and food with the exception of the crab Rangoon We order crab Rangoon practically every Chinese restaurant we go to but this one was fishy tasting. I know it is crab but this tasted bad. We told waiter but he said that was "normal". We didn't press the subject but definitely won't be ordering it again.“

“Friendly staff and delicious and hot food! We moved from dallas and are new to the area - our first search for Chinese Takeout was such a hit that we don’t have to look any further!! What’s better - The woman at the counter even gave a recommendation so that we’d enjoy our food even more! She is so nice and again the food was so hot! We loved it! We sat in the restaurant to eat - there’s 4 tables an inside to enjoy your food on!“

“Best Chinese food I’ve had in a while just like back home (Boston). Staff is friendly food is fresh never disappointed.“

“Ordered to-go from Liang’s Bistro pretty much by accident. I was in the area and wanted Asian to go but not Chinese or Ramen or Sushi. Limits the options, yes. Went here hoping it was more than a typical Chinese takeout shop. It turned out to be a bistro, as it is called, with a pretty and warm interior, table-side service and an impressive wine storage along one wall. The restaurant features an open kitchen with a large but not overwhelming menu. I chose yellow curry chicken, Thai basil with tofu and a pad Thai dish as well as shrimp lettuce wraps. Everything was delicious even though it was an hour before I made it home for us to eat dinner. What I like best is they do a little of everything - Vietnamese, Thai, Chinese and even noodles and poke without offering so many of each kind that you know it’s going to be awful. The manager took great care of me, mentioning that this is their second location after a long stint in Tampa and that the business is owned by a Chinese individual who is adamant about serving Asian food, rather than just his country’s dishes. I liked it and look forward to taking my family and friends. Feels comfortable and is affordable. I spent $62 to feed four people and we have leftovers in the fridge.“

“This place is 15 minutes away. I have to overcome four places to get there totally worth it. They are wonderful people. Wonderful food absolutely worth the drive. My boyfriend could not get enough of the egg drop soup you guys rock thank you“

“Just the atmosphere is so nice. Been 2 times and got boba and a dinner combination platter of general tso's chicken and vegetable chow mein.(And there to go boxes are not foam they use the plastic ones that you can reuse) If you like general tso's chicken spicy the way it's supposed to be it's amazing and it's so fresh and good that I would recommend to anybody in the area or out of the area if you want Chinese food go to this place because you will really like it especially for the boba is made really good instead of using fresh fruit though they used fruit jam which is like a puree but it's really good and I think that if you like Chinese food this place is one of the freshest places that I've been in a long time. Except for Kobe's of course lmfao.“

“delicious food with great service and very fast hits the trifecta of quick delicious and not too expensive -dan

we ordered the soup dumplings, lamb skewers, pork burger, and the house stir fry noodles. Everything was perfectly seasoned and satisfying. I was very impressed. Will come back! -Zoe“

“Stopped in for lunch and ordered the grilled bourbon chicken. At first, I wasn’t sure since the sauce was light and the chicken looked underdone, but it actually turned out decent. My coworkers ordered the Spicy General Tso and the Firecracker Chicken kids meal, which they really enjoyed. Overall, not bad for a quick lunch option, though my coworkers aren’t very picky about their Asian cuisine.“

“Tasty Chinese food,would totally recommend!“

“Always a great meal, everyone that visits us from out of town we bring here and they love it also. Thank you guys for all that you do.“

“Giving my review as I'm eating it. Visiting in the area and took a chance. Happy we did, taste like old school Chinese food from back in the day. Ordered on door dash, food came hot and a large amount. Smelled amazing, shrimp was clean. You just have to call if you want to make any changes to the order (no onions etc) but they were nice over the phone also. This experience gets ***** 5 stars“

“I just moved to this side of town a few weeks prior to the day that I went in there I was shopping at stores that were in the same Plaza I was in the mood to get some soup the place was pretty crowded when I went there I got wonton an egg drop soup mix together it was really good I was talking to the lady that was in there waiting for her food she's from New York as well as I am and she said that that what's the closest thing to New York Chinese food since she's left the place is super clean everybody's really nice the prices are really good it smells good when you walk in there I will definitely be going back there if you've never been there before you need to go place is really good I'm looking forward to trying other things“

“very nice food! staff kind and will kindly put fortune cookies in your bag. but i put four stars for “atmosphere” because it is a little under cared for. unclean floors, only a couple din in tables. but overall five stars. thank you amazing china wok team for your great food and service!“

“Wow! The service was outstanding, with our meal being delivered directly to our hotel room door. The portion sizes were also notably generous. While the entire meal was delightful, the egg roll filling was not to my personal taste. I highly recommend this establishment for its exceptional service and value.“

“What a welcome surprise—out doing errands and decided to try some local Chinese food. Some of the best Hot & Sour Soup and very tasty Steamed Dumplings. House Fried Rice, both Shrimp and Beef Lo Mein and Chicken and Broccoli were all very well made and delicious. Very good quality at a good price—order on line to save fees. The order was ready when promised and they even phoned to say it was ready for pick up. We will definitely be back!“

“This is the best family run Chinese restaurant in the entire area. Tell Peter hello 👋 from me when you go!“

“I LO💖E THIS PLACE. I HAVE THE BEST DUMPINGS AND THE DIPPING SAUCE IT'S SO FLAVORFUL AND SEASONED RIGHT BECAUSE THEY MAKE IT FRESH IS SO GOOD DEFINITELY THE VERY BEST IVE HAVE HAD ANY WHERE HERE IN FLORIDA SINCE I LEFT NYC 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“Just celebrated a friend's birthday at Grand Fortune and was blown away by the improvements! Last time I visited was right after they opened, and it wasn’t up to par. But they've clearly stepped up their game – every one of the 12 dishes we ordered was a hit. Heard they got a new chef, and it shows. I'm definitely returning; hope they keep this chef around!“

“This is my go-to take out Chinese. They're always quick with the orders. It's usually ready when I get there, and it's always tasty. The people who work their are always polite. I have yet to have a problem.Definitely recommend you order ahead. This IS the pick-up spot in my opinion. At least in my neck of the woods.

Vegetarian options: Mixed vegetables are great. Haven't tried their bean curds, but if everything else is an example, it should be awesome.“

“I have already tried this place multiple times, so I feel confident giving my review. I'm surprised by the current rating, this place is five stars. The food is delicious and fresh, the portions are generous, and the ingredients are high quality. The restaurant feels clean, they use good packaging for takeout, and they have about 4 to 5 tables for dining in.

I enjoy picking up my lunch here because the service is great, and the staff is very friendly. Their lunch specials are my favorite, and I go at least once a week to get my lunch. They are also very quick at getting the food ready.

Overall, I love this place. So far, it's my favorite spot for Chinese fried rice and General Tso's chicken in Tampa. I highly recommend it, especially for days when you don't feel like cooking, have a craving for Chinese food, or need a quick lunch for the office.

The photos show the General Tso's chicken, fried rice, spring roll, and steamed dumplings, everything was delicious.“

Parking: Parking lot in a strip mall.“

“I have a new go to takeout place! This is the BEST egg drop soup I have ever had. The eggs were perfectly creamy and a wonderful flavor. The roast pork egg foo young was delicious, as was the gravy that came with it. Portions were hefty, so lots of leftovers!“

“I'm completely satisfied every time I eat here. The food is always cooked to perfection. There fast and very friendly. I think it's the perfect place to get your next meal. Also, I have to say, everything I've tried so far has been amazing in taste and quality!“

“We ordered delivery from Hong Kong a few weeks ago after an exhaustive search for *good* Chinese food. We were really pleasantly surprised at the quality, so we ordered again last night.

This place does not disappoint. We got the Chicken Fried Rice and The Four Seasons, and both dishes were excellent quality. The proteins they use are great quality and you can tell they are using fresh vegetables. They're crisp and perfectly cooked.

You get a lot of food for the price you pay as well. Delivery was on time (a few min early, actually).

This is our new go-to spot for Chinese food. Please keep up the quality, great prices and portions, and friendly service!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Was my first time ...the best Chinese food I have ever had ..Very large portions to share ..They have a desert cart that comes around...will definitely be back with the family! 5 stars from me for sure!“

“Excellent! We ordered from Uber Eats, so I can’t speak to the ambience, but the food was delicious. We had chicken fried rice, sweet-and-sour shrimp, chicken and rice soup, and wontons. There was a brown gravy served on the side and I’m not sure what it was for, but we put it on everything and it was fantastic.
Everything was seasoned perfectly, the crispy breading on the shrimp was delicate and flavorful and the chicken was in small tender strips. Highly recommend!“

“This is my go to spot in Tampa, they’re always so quick and on point. The food is bomb, I always get the General Tso dinner combination (photos attached) and love the eggrolls have actual veggies in it and not that weird mushy stuff most Chinese restaurants do. 10/10 would recommend“

“I recently visited this delightful Chinese spot that truly impressed me with their flavorsome dishes. The pork gyoza had a perfect pan-fried crispness and a succulent filling, a well-deserved 8/10. The shrimp fried rice was a standout, with generous portions of shrimp and just the right amount of seasoning, easily a 9/10. While the French fries strayed from the traditional menu, they were decent but not remarkable, so I'd give them a 6/10. The pork and rice dish was hearty and flavorful, earning a solid 7/10. And the General Tso's chicken? It was a savory delight with just the right kick of heat, an 8/10 for sure. Overall, this place is a great choice for a satisfying meal, and I'd rate it an 8/10. Would recommend it to anyone craving a Chinese feast with a few familiar favorites on the side.“

“BEST STEAMED DUMPLINGS IN TAMPA! i crave these dumplings truly. i get them once a week at minimum! i only order takeout here - there is no in-house dining. but it's a small, family run spot with absolutely delicious chinese. i also love their lo mein and fried rice. but the dumplings are truly my favorite.“

“This place is priced well, reliable and quick. They have never messed up my order. I recommend to anyone just looking for a quick option from somewhere that’s good. It’s not let me down. Every time I order there they say “10 minute. “ It couldn’t be more true they’re terrific. Great job!“

“My husband and I are from NY where the takeout Chinese is top tier. Moving to Tampa, I have been searching for a quality take out spot and found it!

The staff is friendly, the food has so much flavor and quality, and the prices are very reasonable. Their lunch special is the best!

We have tried a handful of different meals from their diverse menu and have never been disappointed.“

“First time trying this little restaurant on Gunn Highway - very pleasantly surprised. The food is very tasty and we will be returning.

Vegetarian options: I ordered the mixed vegetables and they were very tasty and a good variety. Lots of broccoli, snow peas, onions, mushrooms, carrots not the usual baby corn and celery. I asked for a bit of heat to the dish and they were happy to comply.

Parking: Easy to park, just pulled up in front of the restaurant. Very easy access.“

“food is good it has that umami flavor but the soup" i have been to Singapore Taiwan and other asian countries i have never seen them put broccoli and bell pepper in a soup“

“I LOVE ❤️ THIS PLACE!!!!! SO AMAZINGLY GOOD. WE HAVE EATEN THERE MANY MANY TIMES, EVERYTHING IS ALWAYS DELICIOUS AND VERY REASONABLY PRICED. THE VALUE IS VERY VERY GOOD. WHEN WE GO TO CITRUS PARK MALL, WE NEVER MISS EATING AT CHINA 88. THE QUALITY OF FOOD IS SUPERB!!!!! WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND CHINA 88. THE BEST OF THE BEST.“

“I have eaten at Kang's Garden infrequently (maybe a couple times each year) since 2021. The previous owner had great food and used to give both soup and an egg roll with a combination meal. Unfortunately, this deal no longer exists, however the new staff is always friendly, professional, and prepares the food promptly. Admittedly, the food was a bit salty/oily for my taste, but was pretty good overall in terms of flavor. The general space inside is fairly similar to other Chinese takeout places. However, I will note that it was fairly clean and organized inside. I would not mind eating here every once in a while.“

“Was my first time ...the best Chinese food I have ever had ..Very large portions to share ..They have a desert cart that comes around...will definitely be back with the family! 5 stars from me for sure!“

“I love it!! Ive been going there since I was a kid.the service is Fast ,and I could never complain ..Fresh ,and just wonderful food.(with most that I've tried)..Philly cheese steak EggRolls🔥🔥🔥🔥chicken wings🔥🔥🔥🔥 jumbo fried shrimp🔥🔥🔥 Beef and broccoli 🔥🔥🔥“

“clean, good food, nice selection, polite staff. was definitely impressed“

“This used to be the top dim sum in the Tampa Bay Area. I’ve noticed a few of the most popular dishes needs a little bit of tweaking. Xiu Mai as well as the fried turnip cake is dry. If these 2 dishes can be fixed, I believe the restaurant will regain a lot of their customers. New dim sum places have popped up and have overstepped Ho Ho only because they’ve managed to make these two dishes extra tasty ;-)“

“I used to go to the one on 50th street, they were Amazing. Then they sold to some people who don't know how to cook Chinese food. I was upset. Then I found out they had another store New Far East from Paul the Plumber. They have the Best Food in Town... 10+++++++ Everyone should go.“

“This is by far the best Chinese restaurant I've ever experienced in Tampa.The customer service is great and the food is outstanding. If you're looking for great flavorful and fresh food, I highly recommend. Trust me you won't be disappointed 💕 this place.“

“I came through the drive through to pick up my App order and the lady says she can't find it because the App is down. I explained that it had processed the order and won't let me cancel. She keeps telling me the money will automatically go back to my card but there's nothing she can do to help me. I ask to speak with a manager. She leaves me waiting never returns, so I drive to the window and start to ask her about this issue and she shrugs her shoulders at me. I“
