36 Best Chinese Restaurants near Barrington

“Great food, Great portions! People here are typically friendly, they seem a bit rushed, but never take it out on the customer. We LOVE the crab rangoons and the fried rice is so good no matter which meat you choose!

My only complaint is that EVERY SINGLE TIME I tell them no peanuts in my KungPao dish they put tons of peanuts in it, not just in it but right on top. I know lots of people love it, my husband does, but personally I hate the peanut flavor and texture it ruins the whole dish for me. Extremely dangerous if someone has an allergy to peanuts and are then served a ton of peanuts.“

“Buena comida y buen ambiente fui un día festivo con reserva y espere una hora . Creo deberían tomar reservas teniendo en cuenta que kas personas se quedan más de media o una en la mesa

“The foods are delicious and sweet and sour shrimps delicious 2“

“The food tastes amazing and there are large portions“

“It's a bit of an older place, just vibes-wise, but it just means the food there is amazing since the chefs are so familiar with every dish they make. The waiters and waitresses, despite not speaking English as a native language, are all so kind and considerate as well! I highly recommend the Hainan chicken rice and the Vietnamese iced coffee. Also, the pricing is insanely good for the quality of food. Looking forward to going again!“

“With Heng Weng dropping far from my favorite Chinese restaurant in the area since the new owners, thankfully Absolutely Chinese is now one of my favorites in the northwest suburbs! Picked up the egg rolls and combination fried rice tonight from an owner could not be friendlier and attentive, I loved it all! Fresh and great tasting, I look forward to trying more!“

“First time here and won't be the last! Pleasant, and friendly service, welcoming in today's hurry up world! Food was outstanding especially the fried rice and shrimp and fried rice and chicken combo. Was looking for a good Chinese restaurant. They have my vote, stop by and order, you won't be disappointed!!!

“1st off, I'm not a local guide as this stupid Google system says I am. Ok, Native New Yorker now living in Texas, seriously missing good Chinese food. I was in Illinois for business and a coworker suggested China Style and it was delicious! The nice woman at the counter had them make BBQ Pork Fried Rice for me, to go with an order of BBQ Pork and it was all very good! The prices were standard for what Chinese food costs these days. It was so good. I came back 2 days later for more of the rice and had the Chicken with Broccoli and it was very good as well! Thank you to the nice woman for having the order prepared specifically for what I wanted! Best Chinese I've had away from New York.“

“Love their panang curry chicken!“

“I have to say.. I am SO happy!! I have been trying different Chinese places for a while!! And this one is by FAR the best!! I got the appetizer platter and everything is AMAZING!! Hot and sour soup is FULL of wonderful things!! I got delivery and they were punctual, friendly and the food was hot! Can't say the same for grubhub and uber eats!!“

“Love ... love ... love ... this gem of a local restaurant. Just changed my favorite dish from Beef and Broccoli to Lucky 7. Always order Egg Rolls and Hong Kong Fried Rice.“

“Affordable & it taste good every Platter size was so huge & it Runs with Family treat you good like your Family too.. i will highly recommend this place for the people out there thats love Chinese Foods.“

“Ordered here looking for something that was open, and so glad we did. They have the BEST sesame balls I have ever had. We are so excited to order from here again. If you like sesame definitely order those!! We wish we ordered two orders of them instead of only one.“

“My order was made to my taste and it was exactly and positively perfect. The lady taking my order was very pleasant and didn't mind my changes at all. After eating I called Panda to thank them again. My meal was cooked to perfection and enough to feed 3 people. What's my order??? If Sweet & Sour Chicken and Sesame Chicken had a baby. That would be my order. Can't wait to have again“

“Delicious!!! Great food and very friendly!“

“Love this restaurant! The food is consistently delicious, the wait staff is top notch and the restaurant is an enjoyable ambiance with multiple booths for seating or tables if preferred. We're so glad this opened!

Parking: Parking is right out front of door which helped once when it had begun to rain! Also, handicapped parking is available.“

“My favorite Chinese food in the area! Service is brusque but efficient, and while technically there is a table or two inside this is really more of a carry-out place. But everything is tasty and once you get to know the staff they're really nice.“

“Very good and tasty food. Friendly service. Loved the sweet and sour shrimp..“

“Very good food great service ( quick !) fantastic prices- what’s not to love ❤️😊“

“Best in the area! Alway fresh, hot & tasty! Beef lo mein-Cantonese style is my fav, beef is always tender and moist- and tastes like beef. Chicken fried rice is my chaser, tender chunks of chicken tastes great w/ a lil Soy sauce. *Egg rolls are made in store, fresh- many places have frozen ones shipped in. The only issue I encounter (Agee times) w/ the eggs rolls is they tend to overcook (look burnt) them, not a deal breaker but Hong Kong please take note *Pick-up only at this time due to COVID C***!“

“Omg, the food here was so amazing! And we are very picky as asian foodies. Went here for my bday and they even did the cutest thing with putting a candle on a stack of almond cookies with fortune cookes surrounding it to sing to me. The waiter was polite and the wife of the cook, which I assume is also the owner, was extremely warm and welcoming. We will definitely be back and reccomend to our friends.“

“Great. Asked for no oil or minimum oil, and they did it. Lots of flavor. Thanks.“

“Great for grabbing quick take out after work or even when co-workers want Chinese food to share. They charge % for paying credit card but that’s understandable nowadays.

Parking: Parking in front of store is no problem“

“This place has some of the best Chinese food I have found near Hanover park/streamwood/Bartlett. Mongolian Beef is more traditional (spicy and not sweet, packed with beef, white and green onions and includes the crunchy white noodles). The fried rice with shrimp came with good size shrimp. The crab Rangoon is also packed with filling and you can tell they change their oil frequently. We also enjoyed their beef lo mein and sesame chicken. Their food is not salty, but if you like that add a little salt yourself to bring out a tad more flavor. Don’t plan on dining in, it’s not the greatest atmosphere. It is clean but clearly meant for carry out first.“

“I have gotten food from here many times. It’s always great. The owner is so nice and really cares about providing his customers great food. But yesterday I got the won ton soup for the first time, and I can honestly say, it is the BEST wonton soup I have ever had.“

“By far the best Chinese take out in the area! Consistently good, have enjoyed their food for over 35 years! So glad we can still enjoy their food. Look forward to every order! We have our typical order but every on e any a while we will try something new and have never been disappointed!!! I moved to the west side of town but will still drive for the best!“

“My more 'local' favorite Chinese take out place closed around 9 months ago (Chens in Palatine) and I've been looking for a new one since - after trying a dozen+ restaurants, I think this is the winner! It's a bit of a hike from lake zurich, but so worth it for good Chinese food! (I ordered our usual favorites: sesame chicken, pork lo mein, steamed dumplings, egg roll (and one that I don't always order with my kids, hot and sour soup). I have other favorites, but those ones are the "bare minimum" of "must be great")

(The Lo Mein - top right in the pic - is the one thing that I have been searching for someone else to get right since my last place closed.)

I also love that for the entree, for a small upcharge, you can swap the standard included white rice for a side of fried rice, or lo mein. We rarely ate much if any of the rice, but we will eat fried rice (lo mein as well, but I usually order that as a second entree!)“

“I've been here a few times and the food's always pretty good and it's always fresh so it's nice that they're working hard to make sure that it always tastes good for their customers and the restaurant is always really clean and I like it that they have fountain drinks with free refills? the prices are definitely reasonable considering you're at the mall so this place is definitely worth stopping by and especially if you want to do some shopping at the mall?“

“Family and I had some great food tonight. Large portions too. Will be back.“

“The Best chinese food ANYWHERE! Best ever. Worth the drive. Can recommend beef on a stick, chicken fried rice, egg foo young, Mongolian beef. Please make a restaurant in Deland Florida. Live in Florida and miss this. When I moved to Rockford and Chicago I would still drive all the way to Elgin for this great Chinese food. If you can't make a restaurant in Florida please make some way for me to get this in the mail please.“

“Friendly staff, very polite. Excellent food for pick up or delivery. You get a lot of food for the price and it’s really tasty. Tried the crab Rangoon, chicken fried rice, Singapore noodles and general tso chicken. All great dishes. Flavorful, didn’t even need to add extra soy sauce. Kids and adults loves every dish. No complains! Will order again for sure!“

“The new recent owner has made great changes to the quality of the food. i have been there twice recently with several friends and we all agree the quality of food is back to what is was several years ago. Last night we had 5 differant items and all agreed the food was great and we will be back.“

“What a great experience my husband and I had. The woman serving food and the cashier evan on saturday 10/26 around 7pm. We so positive and upbeat. Really made you feel welcome. This was a level of service that I have not had in years. Give them both a raise! Thank you so much!“

“Love this place 😊“

“This food is some of the best I've tasted around here. The portions are huge, the egg rolls are perfect and the service is EXCELLENT! We used to use several other spots in the area for Chinese food but we have all but forgotten about them. GREAT JOB FORTUNE HOUSE!“
