46 Best Chinese Restaurants near Riverdale

“I ordered a small veggie fried rice. It was good but the container is SUPER small and the price is a bit high $10.50. I know groceries prices are outrageous but rice, 🥕 and 🍄 are still pretty cheap. Green peppers are on the expensive side if not on sale but there wasn't enough peppers to justify the cost. Thats my opinion.“

“This is my most favorite restaurant. The food is ALWAYS delicious. The owners are ALWAYS pleasant and welcoming. The restaurant is ALWAYS clean, and that is a big plus. Their orders are very fulfilling. I've also never received a wrong order. They absolutely care about their patrons, and that means a great deal. I live in Chicago, and have a Chinese food restaurant in walking distance from my residence, but I come here, and I wouldn't dare go anywhere else“

“food is always great, and the staff are always friendly and happy. I'm not just saying that because I'm hanging out with the boss, he's friendly and always happy too!“

“everything. good sevice nicé“

“Always a fun experience! Delicious food!“

“I've visited this location several times over the past few years, and my experiences have generally been positive. One recurring issue has been the long wait times during busy hours, with waits sometimes stretching close to two hours before being seated. Even so, we kept coming back because it's conveniently located near our home, and we always enjoyed the variety of food on the menu.

When we visited again yesterday afternoon, we were happy to see there wasn't a wait, and we were seated almost immediately. Everything seemed to be going well, and the service was friendly as usual. Unfortunately, after getting home, I started feeling sick, and by today my stomach has been bothering me constantly. Based on how quickly the symptoms appeared, I believe I may have gotten food poisoning from something I ate during the visit. I can't say for certain which menu item caused the problem, but I know I felt perfectly fine beforehand.

This experience was really disappointing because we've supported this restaurant for a long time. The meal itself tasted normal, so the illness came as a complete surprise. I hope this was just an isolated incident and not something that happens regularly. I understand that mistakes can happen in any restaurant, but getting sick after eating is difficult to overlook. The location has always been convenient, and we've had many enjoyable meals here in the past. The atmosphere has generally been pleasant, and the staff has usually treated us well. That's what makes this experience even more unfortunate. At this point, we've decided that we won't be returning. I truly hope the restaurant reviews its food safety practices so that other customers don't have a similar experience.“

“The best food of my life personal favorite the orange chicken. Very kind couple“

“Wow! Talk about the gem of China right in Chicago! We heard tremendous things about this place, the incredible food and new owners! The brothers at the front were super friendly and helpful and the food was quick, hot, well seasoned and delicious! We came from Cali and it was worth the trip!“

“First time customer a friend told me about this Restaurant. I purchased the curry chicken, the angel hair thin noodles MEI chicken ( it tasted better than chicken fried rice, First time for this item and I loved it) the jumbo shrimp fried rice. Everything was delicious.“

“Lucky Bamboo is a wonderful restaurant! Sometimes they get busy, so you need to call in advance. But the food is delicious. Truly some of the best Chinese food I've ever had. And the owners are really nice people too! I highly recommend this place. Honey shrimp and Hong Kong chicken are my favs! Thank you!“

“I haven’t had good luck finding a good chinese restaurant near me and tried this place tonight and it was delicious. Everyone inside was friendly. I tried to call in but kept getting busy signal so I went in person to order. My order was ready in about 15 minutes. I will be back“

“The food here is good no bs and they're fast but they're kind of pricey. I don't know when or why Chinese food has gotten so high but they need to chill on the prices. Egg foo young and a large rice should never be damn near 30.00. It cost nothing to make this type of food so yeah good but expensive for no reason.“

“Best best pho ever. I get pho combo each time. Egg rolls are delicious and wings are delicious I always come here for a few years now. Pleasant servers. Cordial and accommodating.“

“Service is still great … but when closed then reopened, the quality of the food is now NOTICEABLY DIFFERENT (worse). Different chef, perhaps? Not sure what I mentioned it because I always order the same thing chicken with black bean and garlic sauce. The last two times I ordered it after they reopened they used dark meat and it was always always always white meat chicken. Also, the sauce is different. Something’s changed, but I’m just not sure what. It’s still my favorite Chinese restaurant in the south suburbs but they can do better. I say that because they’ve been better.“

“fantastic food, large portions“

“Good food“

“Not crazy bot new system ordering food. They tell ya we will text you when your order is ready. We live 25 min. Away n don’t want food sitting there for that time while we get there…“

“AMAZING chinese food I ordered me some orange chicken & wings & I couldn’t be more happier about it made fresh & always hot 🥵
The staff is very friendly & helpful as well will definitely be going back here 💯“

“I always enjoy ordering from Grand Chinese. Workers are always courteous and the food is always delicious. I used to go to Hoe Toy on Stony Island but the original owners sold it I believe and the food wasn't the same. I found out about Grand Chinese and now they are my go to spot for Chinese food.“

“Great food, always make it here when traveling to Illinois“

“I could go on and on about this place!! I order here at least once a week lbs. I usually get the same thing combination fried rice and the chicken wings but I tried something different today. Still got my combination rice added jalapeno & green onions and a spicy shrimp egg foo yung. And it wassss goooood!!!“

“I decided to order something different from Kenking, the beef and gravy was good and tender but very salty I had to add water to make it palatable. The Cantonese fried shrimp was bland and needed some sauce for flavor. Overall the food is great, outside of the 2 dishes mentioned, so I will be going back but I will just stick to my regular order.“

“The best shrimp fried rice I've ever had. Food is ALWAYS fresh!“

“Absolutely the best food around! Fast service, convenient location, and just amazing food. Spicy is ACTUALLY spicy! We ordered crab rangoons (perfect, not sweet, and crispy!), beef & Broccoli (good), general Tso's chicken (mildly spicy, a little bland, but still quite nice), Coconut chicken (really awesome, lightly breaded, crispy, mild spice that builds as you eat), BBQ pork egg foo young (just like childhood!), and chicken fried rice (lovely flavor, lots of bits of meat). Huge portions make it worth every penny!“

“I ordered a small combination rice and fried shrimp picked it up, left realized the rice was right, the shrimp was wrong. They gave me shrimp Fried Rice. No fried shrimp.They need to understand people up there Better otherwise than that the food was good“

“We usually order delivery from Wings Chinese for our office and they are always fast. Today we placed a large pick order for 10 people, and all the food was warm and delicious. My only suggestion would be to call the order in rather than placing it online to get a more accurate pick-up time for large orders. The staff is friendly and they even gifted us with a large quantity of fortune cookies.“

“I ordered a large vegetable fried rice w/2 extraeggs on top, 6pc chicken wings, and two vegetable egg rolls. The food was very delicious and the staff was very friendly. This wasn't my first time and definitely won't be my last.
The prices were very reasonable.“

“The best Chinese food around! I drive from Kankakee, Illinois to enjoy their food!“

“Great little spot for take out or quick dine in and relax so far my meals have been delicious. The sweet and sour chicken and red sauce is good. The tofu with mixed vegetables is absolutely delicious. The spring rolls are good and so is the egg rolls. The plain fried rice is ok if I wasn't cheap and added meat id be more happy but delicious food and we are back for second round now will update later.

Vegetarian options: Great tofu and vegetables also have steamed food options for the lighter side“

“I’ve been coming to this place since I was a little girl, back when they were located across the street near the bus depot 🚌. It’s honestly so nice to see that even after all these years, the taste of the food has stayed just as good 😋. That kind of consistency is hard to find these days!

Also, Jason is always super friendly and welcoming 😊—he really makes you feel appreciated as a customer every time you stop by. It’s places like this that bring back great memories while still delivering quality food and service ❤️.“

“Always an excellent representation of Asian cuisine, they are fast and efficient. The food is delicious and always prepared fresh and by authentic hands. Never a disappointment in the 15+ years I’ve been visiting. This is diamond in the rough, if ever there has been one. I truly cannot say enough about this establishment. 10/10!“

“I would’ve gave them 5 stars because the food is great and the service was great too. However, I ordered Shrimp fried rice and they add beef and chicken to it. I had to pick the chicken and beef out of my fried rice while eating it. Other than that everything was good. Best Chinese food I’ve had in a long while. Now I know to check my order before I leave the restaurant.“

“We decided on Chinese food for NYE night.
Our food was fantastic. I can truly say that we enjoyed our dinner.
Although I would imagine because it was the holiday, it took us 1 hour to order and receive our food. When we ate dinner, it was well worth the wait“

“The food was tasty I should have asked for gravy on my shrimp fried rice. They give you a lot for the money, I will return. The staff could be a lot friendlier, not so robotic. When you come in they can say " hi, how are you" not just stand there looking at you waiting on you to say what you want. They can smile.“

“Very decent place. Consistently good, had it 3x this week already! Egg rolls are great, big and surprisingly not at all greasy. Crab rangoon are good. Sesame, Mongolian and orange chicken are 👌. bbq pork/ chicken chow mein are both great. Chicken lo mein is ok. I prefer the fried noodles.

There's more stuff I wanna try, but so far so good.

Place looks and feels like your average dive/hole in the wall and it doesn't disappoint. I was weary because NOTHING is updated on Google, I thought the prices on their menu were 2010 prices or something but no, those are the right prices. No frills comfort food. Give em a try.“

“I've passed this place probably a thousand times over the last 20 years. I never bothered to go in here because I thought it was closed down. I started working a new job a few doors down from this restaurant when I realized they were actually opened. I went into this location because I needed something to eat fast and much to my surprise it was a very good. The vegetable egg rolls were top-tier and the fried rice was fresh and tasty. I will definitely go back it was surprisingly delicious.“

“I order from this spot all the time for delivery. Ordering over the phone is easy and quick, delivery is even quicker. I'm a big fan of the lunch specials and recently tried the pepper steak and shrimp in lobster sauce. This is a great easy takeout option with really good portions. Also, their smoothies are really fresh.“

“Stopped in here based on a friend's recommendation. The food is good. Ended up getting the three choice special Black pepper chicken which is good. The bourbon chicken just have to be careful for the collagen pieces that are in it and the orange chicken i like the Smoky flavor and their lo mein noodles.“

“I love the smoothies here, they are not sweet and taste great. The staff is really friendly. The food is also good, the only complain I have is that they barely put chicken on my order. I order a large chicken, and they put more vegetables than chicken.“

“Food was wonderful and the lady behind the counter was super nice. I was over an hour late picking up my order because of unforeseen delays, and she made sure that everything was hot when I got there. They definitely prefer cash which is understandable seeing as credit cards charge them money. I'll be back. Food was incredible.“

“Food serving just keep getting smaller and smaller. I miss the old days when you can stop here after school and get ur moneys worth. Oh don’t bother ordering online. I placed an order online & was given a time to pick up. I get to this establishment and was told they never received my order. Smh so i even up having to place my order again at the counter and wait . Ended up missing my train smh“

“Visiting Chicago to see my mother n law and she suggested this restaurant. The food was amazing!
The only downfall was the smell. I understand the use of insense but it was way too extreme where we couldn't even be inside or we'd get a migraine. 😥“

“I love their food here's a picture of the combination plate of food I ordered it was beef and broccoli and mushroom and chicken and for $1.25 they give you any fried rice you want and it could feed 2 maybe 3 people with this plate its worth the money honestly great food love this restaurant“
