14 Best Chinese Restaurants in Lowell

“Decent option for large portion lunch specials.

Been in Lowell quite a bit lately and stopped by twice to try their lunch specials. Both times, I was the only person dining in, though there were a few takeout orders going out. The owner was super friendly and while the restaurant seemed like a single man operation, everything came out quick.

The food. The portions for most dishes were easily double what I’d expected from a typical appetizer/ lunch specials. Unfortunately, the overall quality was subpar. Some small plates, like the spare ribs, were clearly reheated in the microwave, and the excess moisture from the thawing process was clearly visible on the bottom of the plate. General Tso’s chicken had thick and soggy breading and very little meat, which made it a carb-heavy bite. Since it had been fried and frozen beforehand, it tasted almost identical to one of those frozen Chinese chicken plates from grocery stores. Thankfully, the pork belly dishes held better even after freezing. Both the garlic chili pork belly and the double cooked pork belly were genuinely enjoyable.

Overall, better than food-court Chinese, but not quite on par with average Boston Chinese restaurants. Lowell’s Chinese food scene is pretty underwhelming, so it might be worth a stop if you’re looking for an inexpensive yet filling meal.“

“What an amazing restaurant in the most ideal location in Lowell. Today was my first time having entered the beautiful location and had take out. I can without a doubt state that my husband and I will be coming in and be patrons because of the friendly service, unique style, and most definitely the fresh ingredients used in their menu. Thank you for helping me on a stressful day and so happy I finally came in!“

“Excellent service an food was amazing“

“it really is a hidden gem! great food for a great and affordable price. service was super kind and caring to our needs, and took our requests with a smile. we reordered an item for a second time, the first being good so we got it again, and the quality somehow got better! really attentive to customers and details. overall, great experience!“

“Food was alright I asked for extremely spicy mei fun and the waiter looked at me crazy and it still wasn't spicy enough for me and when I asked for chopsticks he asked if I knew how to use them and was surprised after I was done eating that I actually knew how to use them.“

“This place isn’t really sit down and dine, more of a takeout spot. I recommend getting the order D8; it’s a plate with great amount of portions they really don't leave out! Everything tasted amazing and so full of flavor I’m glad I ate here. The price for a meal that actually fills me up which taste bomb is everything I could ask for in Chinese food.“

“Best dumplings around and they have large portions!“

“1st time here. amazing food! phone staff could be more upbeat and helpful with queries but compliments to the chef! would 100% order again and delivery was quick . only downside is cash only. we had chicken chow mein , and a special curry with egg fried rice“

“I've ordered in the past a family meal and everything was great! I mostly order Chicken or vegetables lo mein and chicken broccoli and even time it very delicious 😋 and fresh. Delivery is fast and personal are friendly. I will recommend it.“

“Always great food and always great service!“

“Very good food, really great customer service and a wide variety of food options.“

“Excellent food, love the Chinese, love the Kung Pao chicken and Sushi. Good drinks and late night service.“

“Nothing stood out from my experience, which is expected for a Chinese buffet.

The place is brightly lit. Despite being packed on a Sunday, it did not feel too crowded with just enough space between tables.

The service was ok. Even though I had to ask for my water refills every time but they were coming back and forth frequently so it was not an issue for me.

The food has hits and misses. The pepper shrimp and the pork cutlets were highlights. The crawfishes were big but had no taste at all. Other dishes were mediocre.

Be aware that they automatically add a 15% tip even though it was only me dining. I always tip 20% at least but because they gave themselves tips without permission I just left it that way. Will probably come back if I’m bored with places closer to me.“

“Hot and sour soup is the best“
