47 Best Asian Restaurants near Reading

“I've been going here for about 25 years and have never found a better place to get Thai food. The curries are delicious, the pad Thai, the coconut soup, and especially the peanut sauce. And all of the staff are friendly and efficient. It's AWESOME!!!“

“Very nice decor atmosphere...dress casual vibe. Good food ....spring rolls were too chewy inside ...maybe rushed on NYE. Poo poo platter plentifully but food got cold quickly. Shrimp fried rice some of the best I ve had. Prompt service but dotting over us a bit too much ...maybe waiter wanted to turn over table at NYE but I felt rushed at times. Very attentive otherwise.“

“food and service are awesome. friendly environment. great atmosphere!“

“amazing food one of the best meals I've had. 😋 😍 5 stars“

“My husband and I love J&J! We’ve been going faithfully since they opened. They have the best owners, staff, and Chinese/Asian fusion food in the area. Their sushi and drinks are top notch. Most importantly the service is amazing. We got a few trays of food from them too for New Year’s Eve. Not sure if they offer catering all the time but would def suggest not only dining in the restaurant but ordering takeout/catering as well!“

“Thank you Alan and Lotus Xpress for catering my husband's surprise 50th birthday party. Alan, you were wonderful to work with during the planning process- providing options and tending to all the details. The food was AMAZING! Delicious and a great variety. The day of the event, it was such a relief to have you there- catering to our 75 guests. As the host of the party, it gave me great ease knowing you were tending to the buffet and I was able to relax and tend to the guests! The food made the event. Thank you for helping make the event a success!“

“Treat you like family Food is amazing“

“the downside is the delivery charges cost $7 so I can't order regularly too expensive“

“5 stars in terms of flavor. Ive eaten enough ramen to know.
I cant speak for japanese authenticity but the flavor is much better than some other popular north shore ramen spots.

I have only had takeout so I cant speak for service or atmosphere but the food alone compels me to give it a visit sometime soon.

(The marinated egg is one of the best ive ever had)“

“This is my 3rd time here. My husband & his best friend use to go here almost regularly whenever
they got together. His friend has passed away. Our waitress asked how he was doing & very understanding and thoughtful herself when she found out. The place is happily decorated (they have a Christmas tree all decorated in the entrance for the joy it brings!!)Bell like music & 2 TVs with sports on. They are at least 2 sisters all 3 ladies recognized & greeted us. Food is excellent!!! We both had soup -hot & sour for me, wonton for him- fresh & tasty, wonton seem to be freshly made. I love seaweed salad- theirs is the only I have ever been srved w/out iceberg lettuce
'filler'!!. He had sweetened chicken fried rice & a spring roll, I had their tofu w.garlic sauce & white rice. Food was delicious. Hospitality genuine and sweet. Atmosphere unique and pleasant. Paid city parking and plenty of it. There's a small bar.Bathroom accom
modations are clean and spacious
We will be back often. They have been in business for awhile for clearly obvious reasons!!“

“Wide variety of very good food BUT, unless you speak Chinese, ordering by phone or even online is AGONY. They should hire a fluent high school kid.“

“I loved the beef tataki and spring roll!! I will definitely be going back!“

“Quality, taste, presentation - everything at Mango II is top notch! We don't live close by anymore, but we still make the drive because it's JUST THAT GOOD!“

“We’ve been here multiple times, both for takeout and dine-in and the food is always outstanding and fresh. We’ve tried many different things on the menu, both sushi and Chinese food and everything is great. There is no reason to try any other restaurant- we’ve found our go-to place!!“

“Food is great and the staff is great especially the bartenders!“

“Love this place great food and service“

“They never disappoint Food is consistent never a bad meal Food presentation is A+ Staff very professional and very accommodating, making the whole experience even better !“

“I ordered the Flat noodle (with beef) , and spring rolls. Tasty! (Er, came out piping hot, so make sure to give it a moment before chowing down). No frill, but a very cool computer takes your order, great for takeout. Sitting down near the window gives a nice view of the Belmont arch and Belmont Center.“

“Treat you like family Food is amazing“

“inside of a nice Simon Mall, lots seating! Very friendly staff, very good food!!! better than Panda Express. best chow mein I have ever had. Very big portions too, picture is after I ate 1/2 of the food!! Very good broccoli as well :) some crunch, not over cooked.“

“Great food with gluten free options!“

“My new go-to spot for late night Chinese food.

Saw these spots popping up around the GBA a couple of months ago. At first glance, I figured it was just another low-tier takeout-focused Chinese joint. But after catching one of their flyers, I decided to give it a shot.

The place seemed fairly new, and the cleanliness was definitely a step up from your average Chinese takeout spot. Their menu is a bit of a mash-up, featuring both Chinese dishes and sushi rolls, but I wasn’t quite ready to roll the dice on sushi from here. I stuck with the classics (Twice cooked pork, shumai, etc), and most things I tried were solid. Prices aren’t exactly a steal, but the portions are generous, and the staff have always been friendly.

Compared to the late-night spots in Chinatown that I used to go to, the real perk of Dumpling Garden is the hassle-free street parking. Sure, the ratings might not be high, but I would still recommend giving them a try.“

“we had 2 sushi rolls and a pi no grigio and a maitai all were greatm fresh sushi and a nice atmosphere. the place is very clean. service was great!“

“Yesterday was the first time we came to that fine restaurant. But It is definitely not the last time. We had great time with the good service, with the exceptional food and wine and with the comfortable payment. We will surely visit there in a short time.“

“Great food! Amazing lunch specials! Too much food I had to take home leftovers“

“Just ordered luncheons Sushi fresh and delicious with a generous amount of sushi, miso soup and a salad. Also got luncheon with chow Mein came with wonton soup and crab Rangoon. Veggies were crunchy and light, fried rice was fresh. Good value and considerately packaged. Very fresh. Highly recommend this place.“

“I think people that are complaining here are overly privileged and don't appreciate the little things let me tell you why. I'm not saying there feelings don't matter but I am struggling in this state, and can't cook at the moment so to get some "nutrients I ordered a pizza from here that would have garlic, parsley etc and I instantly felt better! The pizzas were so good. As someone who lost a lot of family, I'm not going to bicker about pizza. I thought it was delicious. My boyfriend ordered the medium size and it had lots of cheese. We will order from yall again thank you for your service!“

“I grew up in Thailand and have spent most of my life living between Australia and the U.S., so finding authentic Thai food can be tough but Sugar and Spice takes me right back to my childhood. I adore every dish I’ve tried but the Hor Mok has a special place in my heart. A true gem! Delicious, meaningful and unforgettable.“

“This restaurant was across from our hotel, we love Polynesian kitsch/tiki culture and were glad to find this was a restaurant as well as a bar. The drinks and atmosphere were amazing, the food was a little different than our west Coast Chinese food tho, so I docked a star for food and price. So so glad we stumbled upon this place tho! If anyone from this area finds themselves in Oregon (where we're from) and you're looking for something similar, I'd highly suggest The Alibi (est 1947) or Hale Pele“

“Looooooove this place & The Water they serve!!� It’s the truth! They add Lime to it and it’s amazing, when I pick up orders to go I request a water to go and they know exactly who I am! Lol � The food is always delicious!!“

“The general tso chicken was some of the best I've had, the fried rice tho...meh. it wasn't really good. I'd give the chicken 5 stars, but that fried rice one star. The crab rangoon were really good. Great amount of stuffing, and nice size. Id give them 4 stars. Def a place I'll come back to on my visits to Boston for work“

“While they aren’t set up for dine in, they go above and beyond for their customers. Let me tell you as it is, one of the best places in the area. We came hungry after a game of tennis and the moment we came in, the owner’s upbeat greeting made us feel so welcomed. Cannot describe how happy we feel during and after the meal. Please support this small business that’s doing everything right.“

“One of my late grandfathers favorite take out restaurants, and I can see why. I’ve been going to this place for years and their quality is amazing! I fully recommend this place to anyone in the area, and I recommend their chicken teriyaki and their lo mein, both very good!“

“My favorite place. We come down from Marblehead both to eat in and do take out. Food is delicious and they do a wonderful job of packing up food for take out. Everything is so fresh and tasty we are never disappointed.“

“As always an excellent meal! Mike makes great sushi, and kitchen chefs do great things as well. Its one of our regular places.“

“Great food and food selections Extremely personable staff Reasonable prices“

“I love their pad Thai!! Ga grob is my favorite kind. It's a boneless piece of fried chicken sliced up and set on top of the pad Thai noodles. I get the peanut sauce to put over it. Their peanut sauce is also amazing!! Thick and creamy with a spicy kick. Pad Thai noodles delicious and sweet. Always packed up nice and neat. My food is always hot and they make it within 15 minutes. Place is always clean, plenty of parking and customs service is excellent. I would highly recommend that you try this place. You will not be disappointed.“

“Pho 1 has changed a lot and I’ve been going there for years. Last night I ordered the beef soup for take out and when I got home and opened it the meat was like shredded and not the same consistency that had been in the past. These are hard times for all of us and giving customers scraps is no acceptable. I will go again later in the year and see if they have improved.“

“Pretty standard menu with Japanese and Chinese options. This is our favorite takeout on weeknights in Reading and always good. Dining in is nice, clean and the service is fast and perfect amount of attention. The menu isn’t super creative and leaves me wanting more options like maybe some soup or steamed dumplings but I think their strength is hibachi and sushi.

Parking: Huge lot

Kid-friendliness: Definitely kid friendly“

“Amazon food every time. Buffet is fresh and hot and always changes“

“Today, my wife told me that she wanted to have some good Chinese food, so we decided to explore a good Chinese restaurant. We came across a restaurant called The Dumpling Garden in Saugus, and we went there to try their food. It was the best experience we’ve had so far. I fully recommend it, and the staff there is very friendly. You should definitely go and try it!“

“Charm Thai Bistro is a favorite for my entire family. Takeout is still nice and hot when we get it home and everything is packaged with care. I can't get enough of their Spicy Crab Rangoons and would eat them every day if I could. Everything tastes super fresh and spice levels are just right.

This review was made in connection with a Toast promotion.“

“Wide range of traditional and inventive Thai favorites. They will tailor the "heat" to whatever you prefer. Bustling pick up business with a lot of regulars, and relaxed indoor service for business and family dinners. They recently added an amazing sushi area. The sushi chef is fabulous! Utterly delicious with a top notch presentation. On par with any sushi I had living in Japan.“

“service is great food is amazing“

“We have eaten at Maki Maki over the years. Originally before covid. Skipped for a bit, but when back in 2024. First time back in 2025. Sashimi was good for salmon in the group's opinion. Beef fried rice was a bit salty. Getting water refills was a little tough. Understandable that it was a Saturday night. Probably will go back in the future.

Update: 9/28/25
The overall is good for Maki, sashimi cuts were small, but quality was good. Beef fried rice was good. Will be going back again.“

“Every time we've eaten here the food is great.“
