50 Best Chinese Restaurants in Indianapolis

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

“My church visit P. F. Chang on 11/16/25. Our waitress was Nara. Nara was an exceptional waitress. She was very courteous and professional. She took time to explain the menu to us and guided us on what to order. We were very impressed with her professionalism.“

“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!“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“Their crab rangoons are very delicious and flavorful. The scallops are my favorite along with the beef and vegetable with rice. The portions are quite large even for a medium. They definitely don't skimp on anything. If you ask for extra meat they will definitely give you extra meat especially extra vegetables when you ask. It's a small restaurant with barely anywhere to sit so take out is quite popular. Don't be afraid of the area that it's located in even though it looks sketchy. 10/10 Chinese restaurant.“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“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!!!“

“Coming from an Asian myself, this might be one of the most worthwhile Asian food place since I’ve landed in America. The atmosphere and reception were really welcoming and reminded me of home food. I had the Sichuan pork, Singapore rice noodles, and mix vegetables and it was super good and not that spicy (perfect for us who can’t handle spice). In addition, the homemade tea was also good, a little too sweet for me and my friends but it wasn’t much of a problem. 10/10 recommend, will come back here again“

“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.“

“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.“

“We go once a month. Food is always hot, tastes fresh, the staff is nice & there has never been an issue! We normally get the orange chicken & it comes with broccoli. Sometimes we order the crab Rangoon. Never had bad food from here. I like this little family owned Panda restaurant.“

“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!“

“The best Chinese in Franklin Township!!“

“Good food and friendly staff!“

“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“

“This was my first time in indiana and we were really looking for a good chinese resteraunt. We had read several reviews on several places and decided on this place. It did not dissapoint. We got sweet and sour chicken, general tso and sesame chicken meals and each one was outstanding. Not only were they quick the food was hot and absolutely delicious. I had a few questions for the manager and he called me back promptly and answered each question with courtesy and great customer service from everyone we encountered. All our meals were very reasonable priced as well. I would highly recommend this resteraunt.“

“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!“

“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“

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

“We arrived to get take out 40 mins before closing. The host that met us at the door was so engaging and friendly. We love Chinese food but never having Vietnamese we were intrigued by the options.
We randomly just picked two entrees and they were both delicious. Catfish and eggplant with fried rice and grilled shrimp over steamed rice with salad. Fried wontons as the appetizer.
The host chatted with us while we waited.
We will definitely go back. It is tucked away a bit from Binford and 71st but go and check this place out! What a gem!“

“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.“

“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“

“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!“

“My favorite Chinese takeout ? go-to since like forever. I've been coming here since my son was a baby. 17 years later, it's still my favorite place, and it's family owned. Really nice people.. Don't think twice about supporting this local business. You won't be disappointed. ?“
