50 Best Chinese Restaurants in Indianapolis

“great food. great price , always happy people.“

“My wife and I decided to go out to dinner before heading home for New Years Eve. I was pleasantly surprised. I'm glad I had a reservation because the dining room was full. We shared Mongolian Beef, a spicy chicken dish, and fried rice. All were good and we had some food to take home for later. The prices were reasonable. We spent about $70 per person including tip and three mixed drinks.“

“Reminds me so much of my trips to China ten years ago. Small food stand with a few seats in a random grocery store.

The food is legit authentic…maybe the last one standing in Indy. Don’t believe the review that states there’s only one or two pieces of beef in the noodle soup. Just finished a bowl and there was plenty of beef…just the right ratio. I mean, give me a break, if you want a bowl of beef, go elsewhere. 🤣

Everything that we have tried is fabulous, perfect spicy, and obviously cooked fresh on the spot.“

“It’s been while since I’ve had good Chinese food like this. I was amazed actually. Best pork flavor in the egg rolls and loaded with veggies. Sweet and sour chicken was crunchy and fresh with super sweet sauce on the side. General gso chicken for sure had that expected kick with plenty of broccoli to ease your mind about all the carbs you’re consuming. We also got chicken lo mein noodles with veggies and crab ragoons. This place did not skimp on the filling like others do. My order was ready in 10-15 mins. I took it back home 25 mins away to share with my family, the food was still very hot and delicious. We will be back! High praise all around.“

“My family and i have been going here for years, they always treated us with kindness. The owner too was always so nice to me and family, even if there was a language barrier, they would still find a way to communicate with us. The food is quite amazing and the service is fantastic , would definitely recommend to others!“

“I have been coming to this family ran location for years and the quality and quantity has never changed! I love this place and the owner is such a sweet strong lady she deserves the best !! Moo Goo Gai Pan is phenomenal and I always have plenty to last a few days.“

“This is my favorite TAKE OUT Chinese restaurant in all of Indiana. I’ve been coming here since 2018, their lunch combos and dinner combos cannot be beat, and I start salivating at the thought of their egg rolls. The people who run this business have always been so sweet to me, my friends, and my husband ❤️ I’ve never really seen anyone eat inside, but I personally wouldn’t be offended by not having plates. It’s easier cleanup on everyone, and your food is already in take home containers. 🙂“

“My family and I come here all the time, sometimes almost once a week. Best authentic Chinese food we know in Indianapolis!“

“My family and I come here all the time, sometimes almost once a week. Best authentic Chinese food we know in Indianapolis!“

“I would recommend them however I must say I was very disappointed in my order the other day. This use to be my favorite place but the last order the chicken tasted like it was a week old and very tough.“

“Fantastic spot for the whole family! The General Tso’s chicken was a hit, it was crispy, tasty, and not too spicy. The kids loved it, especially the lo mein and egg rolls. The staff was super friendly and made sure we were comfortable. Definitely our new go-to Chinese restaurant!“

“I'm a hard critic, especially when it comes to Chinese food. Ive been to China town in NYC and it's my favorite cuisine. I ordered the wonton soup and lunch general tsos chicken with combination rice. I'm not kidding when I say all three items were the best I've ever had, and second place wasn't even close. The general tsos sauce wasn't vinagre forward and was thick. The wonton soup meat had a unique sauge flavor and the texture was firm but soft. The prices were in my opinion low to start, but even if they doubled the prices I would be back. This is now my go-to Chinese restaurant. (tian fu is also very good if you want more authentic less Americanized food. They have things like pig ears. They have 2 menus so if you go there ask for the Chinese menu at tian fu.)“

“They got very good Crab Rangoon and Spring rolls. Recommended!“

“Food was very good overall. Hot & sour soup was spicier than expected while the shrimp fried rice was drier than expected. Shrimp Egg Foo young was very good as we're the other entrees - Shrimp with broccoli, shrimp with vegetables, chicken with cashew nuts, as well as the fried ice cream. Won ton soup was very good but spilled in bag when delivered by Grubhub.“

“Don't let the exterior fool you. Food is hot and fresh with a large portions. Service is friendly. I've never had a bad meal from here and my order is always right. For fast food Chinese it's excellent. It's my go to spot in the area.“

“I love going to Food King! Their food has great portions and the employees are so nice! They’re very fast when serving food, which is nice for lunch breaks. They also have a lunch special. I usually get General Tso and Sesame Chicken, both are really good!“

“After reading a few recent reviews I needed to say that we didn't know it was under new ownership we just thought it was a new recipe for the general tsos. We have been coming here for yearssss. But we did compliment the new chicken we got. It tasted different but better. We have got it twice since then and have zero complaints. We usually get the family meal. Although the heat level has been different each time. Either make it spicey or not 🥴 hopefully they improve for everyone we need this place to stay.“

“The food wasn't flavorful/my tastebuds didnt agree with the taste. The lady taking my order was helpful. The food was hot and it was a large portion for the price. I ended up taking 4-5 bites before throwing it in the trash. The spingrolls were mushy inside.“

“The food was excellent! Best Chinese food we’ve had in Indy! Very generous portion sizes. Noticeably high quality meat and veggies. And very thoughtful packaging for our take out order. Makes for a super easy clean up and leftovers. Food was still very hot when I got home.“

“Always great food. Super generous portions, and it is consistent every time you order. I never eat anywhere else for Chinese food. So good🤤“

“This is one of those places you should find on Diners, Drive-Inns & Dives. Comfortable. Clean environment and attentive staff. Two of us more than stuffed on $21. Bahn-mi and Spring Rolls delicious as is the pho and other dishes. I'l go back and back and back.“

“I was out shopping with my girlfriend when i noticed this place and decided to stop by. I am so glad i did some of the best sweet and sour chicken ever. I will be stopping by again my girlfriend wont stop asking for it. Plus I forgot to order drinks and without asking they handed us 2 drinks. You get plenty of food for the price you pay 10/10!“

“I was so sad to hear about your health issues and very happy to hear that you are much better and allowed to open back up. I used to come and visit you when you were at the food court at Eastgate and that's when I fell in love ❤️ we plan to come to see you real soon. We drive 50 miles one way just to come for your delicious food.i Can't wait to make the trip. Hope to see you real soon Mama“

“BEST CHINESE FOOD EVER!!!! THE CRAB RANGOON WAS PHENOMENAL. IT HAD THE PERFECT COMBINATION OF LITTLE CRAB AND AAAAAAALL CHEESE!! YAAY! I WAS BLOWN AWAY...LIKE TOTALLY..THE RICE WAS SO FLAVORED; ROBUST CANOLA OIL UNAMI, EXPLOSION IN MY MOUTH. THE GENERAL TSO'S WAS PERFRCTLY SOGGY WITH NO CRUNCH AT ALL, COMPLETELY DEVOID OF CHILI AND LIKE TOTES SWEET MMMMMMMMM THE EGG ROLL THAT CAME WITH MY MEAL COMBO, O M G, SO MUCH LETTUCE..I WAS QUEENING...LIKE HEALTH QUEENING HONESTLY. I WILL DEFINITELY NEVER GO BACK AGAIN. YAAAAS!“

“OMG, I ordered from here on June 26th, 2025 and WOW they knocked it out of the park. I ordered Shrimp Chop Suey with chicken 🐔 and it was amazing. The broth was perfectly seasoned and delicious, like a thick chicken noodle soup texture gravy with vegetables & meat. Along with that, I ordered House Lo Mein for the side, which was sweet and delicious along with the chicken sticks (literally on over-sized toothpicks) which had a teriyaki-type taste. So good!!! Anyone ordering here will be able to tell the food was prepped and cooked with LOVE!!!“

“We ate here for the first time and ordered online for delivery, we are now repeat customers. The online ordering was easy, the young lady I spoke to on the phone was very friendly and our delivery driver was very professional and friendly. Our food arrived hot and fresh sooner than we anticipated. We had bourbon chicken, fried rice and chicken egg rolls and it was all exceptional. You can tell they put some love into the food. The portions are huge. They have Alot of menu choices. Prices are good for the quality of the food and the amount you get. We will definitely eat here again and I highly recommend!!“

“We loved it, we just moved here and love great food. We've been lucky in Indy, the eggs rolls were perfect. The house special fried rice was great. The general TSOs chicken wasn't as spicy as I like it. I did specify I was wanted it spicy. The fried dumplings were absolutely great. It was a lil pricey but definitely worth it. We're from the northeast and know good Chinese. We were very happy and will be definitely going back.“

“We ordered dinner from here tonight. The staff were friendly and the food was great. The chicken lo mein was probably the most flavorful of any restaurant I’ve tried. The General Tso’s chicken and crab rangoon were also very good. The fried rice wasn’t the best, but it was better than the fried rice from most quick service Chinese restaurants.“

“Great food at a great price.
I went during lunch time and they have a great lunch menu.
They were not busy when I walked in, and I ordered the small fried rice lunch special and it was a lot of food for a great price. The rice was cooked perfectly, and there was a lot of meat in the rice and everything was very flavorful.“

“Been eating there for over20 years and love the place send me and my family some coupons“

“The service was quick and friendly. The music was positive and encouraging. The food was good and we will likely return. One person in our party had Egg foo yun. Though the sauce/gravy was a bit sweeter than we have had in the past he enjoyed it. We were pleasantly surprised that they have lunch specials on the weekends making it a very affordable lunch after church. The tables and chairs appear to be new and comfortable and they easily accommodated the wheelchair in our party. Overall it was a good meal for a very good price.“

“This was my third time going to this place, but my first time actually getting food. I loved it — it was delicious! I just had two small concerns. First, I wish they would give customers a number or call us by name instead of loudly yelling “hey” when orders are ready. Second, I’m lactose intolerant, so I wish they offered an option with almond milk or another milk alternative. Other than that, I love this place and will definitely come back to try more of their bubble tea and food!“

“I'd recommend this establishment and the food they offer. I got my favorite dish the Singapore chow mei fun and this was one of my top 5 for best. I've traveled all around and had this dish everywhere, so to say this in the top 5 means a lot. The only reason I didnt do 5 stars is because I've tasted a 5 star Singapore chow mei fun!“

“Food was delicious! I especially loved the crab rangoons.

The people who work there seemed kind and genuine people. We picked up our food and left…we got a call from them on the way home about 1 rice being the wrong kind. I personally appreciate the call from them 1st. I could see it was super busy- since it was Christmas Day. Will come here again.“

“Good food and friendly staff!“

“The best Chinese in Franklin Township!!“

“Went here for lunch with a friend had the sweet and sour chicken rice and 2 egg rolls and a friend of mine had chicken wings and they were some of the biggest I've seen in a while and very delicious and my friend also had this noodle dish I forget the name of they're very reasonable place very clean customer service in friendliness is very good 5 stars definitely a spot you guys need to check out and look at the food in the pics I mean the plates say it all and the service is great people was nice that work there and very polite very recommended“

“Stopped in for some Queso and ended up trying several things. This place was great. And the staff was good. I highly recommend the restaurant. Yum!“

“I ordered a family meal. I chose beef lo mein, Hoonan beef, and general tso. I also got some teriyaki chicken. I have taken particular notice to these crisp and fresh vegetables. The flavor is great and everything I ordered was in my opinion, amazing. Thank you“

“Great place to get decent Chinese food for a good price. Excellent service, extremely fast, very tasty.

Vegetarian options: Veganism/vegetarianism is the sad result of a morally corrupt mind. Reconsider your life

Parking: Large parking lot plenty of parking and handicapped accessible spots

Kid-friendliness: It's a small Chinese restaurant, you CAN eat here but the place is geared more so towards take out.

Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of wheelchair accessible parking“

“Terrible customer service, missing food. They wouldn’t make it right.“

“This very okay spot is the perfect place to grab that cheap Chinese food. It looks like they are going for a Chinese Vietnamese fusion thing because they're missing some Vietnamese staples on the menu. We came and got the lunch specials. The general tsos is a little loose. The others were very standard. It's a little dated and dirty inside but the food is cheap and decent so you can't really ask for more.“

“First Wok is our go-to spot for delicious, flavorful Chinese takeout that always hits the spot! The portions are generous, the food is fresh, and the flavors are on point every time. From the crispy egg rolls to the savory lo mein and perfectly seasoned fried rice, it’s the perfect place for a quick and satisfying meal. 🥡🍤

It’s also very kid-friendly—the menu has plenty of mild options for little ones (like plain fried rice, chicken wings, or steamed dumplings), and the staff is always kind and accommodating when we order for the family.“

“I’ve been going regularly for a couple years and the owners are always the nicest! Food is always fresh and super hot, dining in definitely makes it taste sooo much better BUT it is a 10/10 no matter how you look at it! Excellent business to support“

“Not only was my order ready in ten minutes! But on a Friday evening!! my order was taken by Wil,l with a Smile and a Servant's heart towards me, the customer! Refreshing, Huh? Not only was our food Delicious! But because of the absolute joy! that was WILL himself, I'll be back and tell 1,000 of my closest friends to please visit Golden Chef!“

“Food was excellent, im originally from St. Louis and if you know anything about how the fried rice is made there then you'd understand. This is the only place I've known here in indy that makes ham fried rice, and you still have to ask for the peas and carrots to be removed 🤢, then its definitely a close second. Service was good as well. I was pleased with this establishment overall.“

“Before we moved to Noblesville 6yrs ago we frequently ate here. Now we only get to enjoy this amazing food once or twice a year whenever we make a special trip into Indy. We always get the #1 crab Rangoon, #11 pork spring rolls and #101 beef Pho. Sometimes we like to switch things up and get the General Tao. All of them are the best we’ve ever experienced.“

“Never been here before but I will definitely be coming back. Just stopped by kinda late in the evening to get some supper to go. I ordered kung po chicken and crab rangoon. The girl that took my order was very friendly (the places I usually go, the girl that takes my order is usually very snappy and unfriendly) and my food was ready quite quickly. The crab rangoons were outstanding and my main course was very tasty. I could only eat a small amount of the kung po chicken so I will finish it tomorrow night. I will be back…..“

“I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS SPOT! Absolutely love this place! The staff are friendly, the food is mostly good and the atmosphere is quite nice! Definitely my favorite afternoon spot. My only complaint was that the ice cream machine didn't have chocolate (I know, I'm a baby). Will be visiting again!“

“China King in Indianapolis is a great spot for tasty Chinese takeout! I had the chicken lo mein, and it was delicious—perfectly cooked noodles, tender chicken, and fresh veggies. The portions were generous, and service was fast and friendly. Definitely a go-to for comfort food!“
