50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Northbrook

“Loved the food here! I went here with friends and family for the first time, very memorable! We went as a larger group of around 12 people. At first the staff told us that we would have to wait 30 minutes, but instead they decided to push a few tables together—so we could sit. It was very kind and thoughtful of them!! I absolutely loved the food, the sanji and dumplings being my absolute favorite! My least favorite dish was the chili pepper chicken, it tasted acidic and me and my friends ate the rice rather the chicken. Its personal preference though, so you might like it! The atmosphere was very nice and personally very cute in numerous ways!“

“Every time we order, food is hot, tasty, very fresh.

The owning family iz very nice, very dedicated to producing a a nice product

One can eat in. But it’s principally a carry out

Try it. You’ll like the experience“

“Never have gotten anything bad here. today got potstickers and house lomein“

“It had been a while since we visited a PF Chang's and we will certainly visit more often. Amazing food and presentation (The Boat!), ambient, music, drinks, service, desserts, etc. The whole package and overall, a fantastic experience!“

“We first tried jianbing in Shanghai, and it was a magical experience to get it made right in front of us in a big, round griddle! And they were soooo cheap, like $2 USD. This place is a wonderful version that doesn't have the same magic, but the flavors are great, and there are many versions to match your cravings. The portion is big and satisfying for lunch or dinner. Friendly staff and nice, comfy clean eat in space.“

“Best dumplings I’ve ever tasted!“

“I sat in and got the birria tacos, and they were SO good. The horchata, churros, rice, and beans were delicious and tasted authentic too. I’m extremely picky when it comes to Mexican food, so I don’t say this lightly, but everything tasted so fresh and flavorful. The owner was also incredibly kind and welcoming, which made the whole experience feel really warm and comforting. You can really tell they care about the food and the people who come in.

Definitely recommend giving Taco Verde a try if you’re in Glenview. 10/10! ❤“

“Very friendly atmosphere on top of their great food.“

“I give this location a 5/5

I have been eating here since before my son was born. He is 12 now we both enjoy this location for dinner, and or just the lunch specials during work hours.
My favorite is always the kung bow chicken, with potstickers.“

“Food is delicious. Excellent service.“

“The guy that answered the phone and took my order could have sounded like he was interested or at least a little bit friendly. Other than that I do have to say they're sweet and sour chicken is probably the best around. They're fried rice is also delicious. It's been a while since I was there so when I go back I'll update on the next dish that I get. All in all it's definitely good food.“

“I grew up in Brunei and their food is the closest i have felt to home. I ordered the Nasi Lemak, kuih lapis and roti paratha.“

“I believed this is my second time coming to this restaurant. I just forgot to leave a review last time. This is a convenient place which close to my Dr's. Office. I love the place coz it's not that busy in comparison to H Mart and other Asian Grocery store that has a food court. Or perhaps today is day after Labor Day, that's why its quite. Plus ASSI got tons of Asian Ready hot/cold foods to go and you can eat at their food court. 🥰, Love the Spicy Noodles i ordered its just the right spice though I ordered extremely hot and spicy stuff. But all is good 😊“

“The best food around!
I am a FAN of chinese food, but no where around suburbs and chicago will you find such FRESH food! Veggies are perfectly done, meat is perfectly cooked! Sauce is amazing taste! I had their Happy Family Dish , Chicken fried rice and Khan Pau Chicken .
Please try this place!

Parking: Plenty of safe , free parking“

“Food was excellent, service can use a little bit of work. I asked for extra limes they seemed to intentionally ignore the first request and then upon reminder seemed a bit annoyed. It’s just limes guys overall the food was great would revisit but if I revisit again and service is the same would not go back even though the food was excellent.“

“Quiet hole in the wall spot with some of the best food in the area. The owner is kind and works really hard to make quality food. A lot of Chinese American restaurants can have a sort of mass produced feel and use the same suppliers but you can tell a lot of love and pride goes into the food here.“

“I want to thank Tony for bringing the finest and most delicious Szechuan cuisine to the North Shore. I live downtown and have visited his restaurants in Chinatown and Michigan Ave. The food is exception each and every time I go to either location. When the "coming soon" sign popped up in Highland Park, I could not have been more thrilled, considering the food at our local chinese restaurants refuse to raise the bar on their food. There is no better Szechuan restaurant in the Chicago area or beyond. The food, the staff, and the service are all exceptional and executed with perfection and passion. This has been the most anticipated opening on the northshore for a reason. Lao is simply unbeatable. I love it love it LOVE IT!!!!!“

“Kind of expensive. Cabbage with a few drops of bacon $16.. two small spicy hotpot fish didn't taste so fresh sliced into 4 filets $50. Overall atmosphere is good and clean and plates are brought out by robots first before the server put them on the table. Overall probably would go back again but not ordering those two items.“

“This place is one of the best restaurants I've been to in the northern suburbs, it's hard to find good Sichuan style Chinese food but this place has it. I got the twice cooked chili fish was my favorite dish, the Mongolian beef had thick cuts of tender beef and seafood garlic fried rice was full of shrimp scallops mussels and fish. The menu has so much to choose from, I look forward to visiting again“

“No complaints - food/service is excellent!“

“We liked the way the noodles for the beef chow fun were packed separately. The beef was tender and the broccoli perfectly cooked.
The chicken and broccoli was perfectly cooked as well. The vegetable egg foo young was delicious. The egg rolls were ok.
Simple, clean, tasty food.“

“Great food, my wife and I had the Hunan beef and Beef fun. Very delicious wel portioned and not at all oily. Very flavorful. Staff is cordial snd helpful. Hope this restaurant stays open for a long time, definately will be going back. YUM!“

“First time and we will definitely be back! Everything was delicious. Starting veggie spring rolls. 2nd pan fried pork pot stickers. Small pork fried rice, and lastly Beef and pea pods. All cooked perfectly. Had enough food for 2 dinners for both of us! Reasonably priced too.“

“We order from here from time to time. We like the consistency and good taste. My family was out and I was on my own recovering from a surgery and felt like treating myself so I figured “ let’s get a bit fancy and order PF Chang”. What a huge mistake that was. The beef with Broccoli had les than 2 oz of beef for $30. I have included a comparison between Hunan Palace’s beef with vegetables vs what I received from PF. Hunan Palace blows PF away! Additional I have had very good luck requesting modifications, I like extra spicy and extra sauce, Human honored my request while PF did not. I think the pics tell all“

“Yum. I’ve been coming here since I was a little girl. And their jjajjang and jjampong and kampoong shrimp is fire. I love their everything but these Korean Chinese dishes! Palbochae and yusanseul so good too and the owner and brother in kitchen are the sweetest humans!“

“The athmosphere is clean, organized, quiet, fine dining & excellent food“

“Y’all gotta try this place there food is soo good everything on there menu is good I’ve been gone here for 5 years and the customer service has been amazing and the food aswell if you like Chinese food this is the place not to expensive everything is for a great price !!“

“The best budget, friendly buffet in the state of Illinois trust me I’ve been to all of them this place has nothing that’s bad on the menu every bite every single item just taste better than the next amazing don’t let the inexpensive price scare. You just come on in and try it I promise you you will love it. The hibachi alone they offer makes the whole experience worth it.“

“I LOVE Little Lans. I’m so happy to be in the area, I won’t go anywhere else for Chinese food or sushi! I highly recommend checking out their new sushi menu. I feel pretty lucky to know about this place, I’ve been a huge fan since my first visit in 1996.“

“Scrumptious!!! Huge portions!! Will definitely return!!“

“If you’re looking for a truly delicious, mind-blowing meal you have to try House of Szechwan! I’ve been looking all over for a place with good Chinese hand pulled noodles and this is the place for sure. The noodles had the perfect texture with an amazing flavor profile. The portions were so generous as well! A hidden gem that deserves much more appreciation 🙂‍↕“

“I am not local, this is a regular go-to place for a friend, so when I visit with her, she wants to bring me. I had a Chinese Eggplant with chicken dish, flavorful and spicy. Also had some nigiri sushi, all very good. The Black Tobiko was plentiful and fresh. The Tamago and Inari, which are types of sushi that are deceptively simple seeming but really show a chef's knowledge and artistry, were excellent. I'm sure I will go again.“

“I’ve been ordering takeout from China Town Restaurant for a while, and they never disappoint. The portions are generous, the prices are reasonable, and the food always tastes fresh. The egg rolls are crispy and definitely worth ordering.“

“I came here specifically for the Orange Chicken, and it did not disappoint at all. The sauce is perfectly balanced—not too sweet, not too sour—and the chicken stays crispy even after being coated. Portion size is generous, and the staff is very welcoming. I’ll definitely be coming back again.“

“Our Family has been going to Lucky Wok for years. Cannot say enough about how fast the team is to get you what you need and address any issues you may have with your order. So glad they are so close and so diligent with their service. Can't say I've seen this level of service since I used to go to old Orange Garden on Irving 25 years ago. Congrats on the having an amazing team.“

“The food here is sensational. I ordered the orange chicken and it was around $8. That is an incredible price. My mouth was watering before I had my first bite. The food was so good I had to edge and I could barely control my urges. I 100% recommend and I will be coming back:)“

“This was our first time ordering and it didn't disappointed. We will be back for more.“

“good food, bad website. can't see pics of dishes to make online order.“

“We have been going to Chinatown Kitchen since their kids were little and now they are in college. The food has always been fresh and delicious. Takeout area always clean and you can see an area of kitchen same way. We have certain preferences that we do not want put into the food and we are very happy the results and the tastes. Have on occasion, friends, tried other places, but always went back to Chinatown Kitchen. Like a good marriage why go somewhere else if you are happy there?!!!!!“

“Best kosher sushi in Chicago.“

“Disclaimer— I’m on a hunt for the best peanut butter egg roll in Chicago— the direct descendent of Pekin House..! Thus, my review pertains to their egg roll alone.

The initial ordering phase put me off. They have a nice fancy entrance with 3 booths on the left and a register in the front. They are carry out only and don’t allow eat-in. I really had to beg to get the opportunity to eat there in an empty booth. 4:30pm. I was the only customer. A bit awkward. Egg roll delivered in a bag. Sauces in plastic. Red gooey stuff for the sweet and sour. Generic impotent mustard. After asking I was given a to-go plastic bin to eat on and a plastic fork.

The egg roll was not terrible—but also not great. I was immediately put off by both the grill marks on it as if it was put into a panini machine to warm it up rather than a deep fryer, and some sort of pickled taste… but I finished it. Definitely peanut butter and the right amount. Very little pork or shrimp. The inner mixture was too mushy for my taste! That’s what it is bothering me. I prefer to see cabbage, shrimp, bbq pork, greens. Here it was so blended that it just looked like cookie dough. There’s not much in Highland Park give it a try.“

“I would come here a lot because before I became disabled to do anything I would come here while my clothes are drying and I want something to eat. Chinese food is amazing.

The only thing that they could work on is how cold and hot the restaurant would get and the tables need to be more friendly for overweight people that probably come to the restaurant sometimes or disabled people like myself as I could never get inside the tables properly (I'm big but me being obese isn't the reason that I'm disabled in the first place)

So 4 out of 5 stars for this one.“

“My experience was both positive and negative. The food was pricey but well worth it since you can get 2 or 3 meals out of it. My wife's sesame chicken had an abundance or sweet and sour sauce. Too much for her taste. My shrimp eggs foo young was great along with the egg rolls. My pickup experience was terrible. The sign says "ring the bell"to notify them you're there. After 3 rings and 5 minutes with no response I called them to let them know I was there. They finally came out, no apology just pushed the order thru the plastic and sign the receipt. Not even a thank you. I trust this rudeness was just the result of a bad day and not par for the course.“

“I’ve ordered take out for a while but finally dined in. I love the complimentary spicy cabbage appetizer. I recommend the dry chili chicken and the hot wok style beef.“

“Our lunches were great! Great flavor, not greasy! The owners are very hospitable and kind, the kitchen is clean and that care shines through to wholesome food! That adds to great atmosphere and keeps me local. Not to mention value. Thank you!“

“This place is the best in the area! The beef is tender, the sweet and sour chicken isn't dried out, their salt and pepper shrimp is phenomenal! They have Taiwanese mai fun that are one of the best I've tried! Their egg foo young is savory and full of veggies! Beef chow fun is delicious! I can go on and on! I highly recommend ordering from here! The owner is super friendly too!“
