50 Best Chinese Restaurants in Baltimore

“We partnered with this establishment many times in catering/festivals and has truly been a successful partnership. Yunnan Asian cuisine is a bit difference from our usual Cantonese Asian cuisine however, Water Song has always exceeded our expectation with their authentic ingredients.“

“I admit the restaurant is very cold. Ignore that. Get the crab wontons. idc what else you order. get those crab wontons, don't bother sharing, and enjoy the crunchiest outside with the fluffiest inside not to mention like 3 times the filling most places do.also got the dumplings and they meet/slightly exceed expectations. hot and sour soup is wonderful. the chicken/pork/shrimp fried rice is also great.enjoy the wontons.“

“Food was delicious and straightforward. The wait time wasn’t too long, especially since you can start eating as soon as they roll out the cart of steamed and baked dishes. Highly recommend their duck and beef lo mein. Make sure to get their steamed Crystal Shrimp and steamed pork buns!“

“The dry fried cauliflower, pork soup dumplings and hot n sour duck soup were all utterly amazing!“

“Always super friendly with amazing Curry Chicken 🍗! They also cook traditional yellow fried rice. Not that nasty brown stuff that these other Baltimore restaurants cook.

Their customer service is great and they're always very friendly. This is the best place in East Baltimore.“

“I absolutely love the food here,you can never go wrong here!! It’s gonna be a few bucks,but it’s worth it for an amazing meal,experience.. I recommend the sesame chicken dark meat,and get an extra side of white rice,you’ll be 100% satisfied..

Parking: At a time when a lot of people are there,there will only be probably a few spots“

“I am not sure about the recent negative review this place received. I ordered two dishes, one with tofu and the other a lowmein with shrimp, and they were both copious and very tasty. It was also so reasonably priced. This is a very legit place.“

“This place never disappoints! The food is always fresh, flavorful, and made with high-quality ingredients. The service is top-notch—fast, friendly, and efficient. Whether I'm in a rush or looking for a healthy, satisfying meal, this is my go-to spot. Five years of dining here, and it's still just as amazing as day one!“

“This low rating is Ridiculous! This is some of the best I’ve had I the city limits, and I mean that from ove the years.
I’m actually mad about the low rating, because I live close and avoided it.

And one day, I’m happy I changed my mind!
I consistently go for their wontons in hot sauce (so good), their Signipore Curry Noodles, Sum Gum Wonton Soup. They do the wonton/egg drop for $1 more (or so, ask them….).

This fool, 😂 saying, “I’ve been to Beijing now, so…”
Yeah, that’s like saying that pizza doesn’t taste like Rome’s pasta, or Brooklyn, NYC pizza! Also. Like. I’m sure their are bad places to eat in Beijing. 😂🤷🏻‍♂️❤️. I’m sure their Philly Cheesesteaks don’t taste like their from South St.. (Look, I’m a big boy, I know my food! 😂)

And how are reviews from 8 years ago relevant??? How does this place have a 3.9.

This is awesome. The food is on point. I only have seen the super nice, quiet mannered lady w working the counter, and a gentleman behind her working in the kitchen with her. Whoever this person they complained about no longer works there. I’ve had nothing but pleasant experiences and it seems most people I see in there at the same.
These are nice people and they deserve to be told so.

The food is quality, fresh, I haven’t had anything in the menu I didn’t like. I love to cook, so I don’t eat out much. And even with that, I probably stopped here 2-3 times a month, which is a lot for me eating out.

I don’t even write a lot of reviews. But these folk deserve a 4.5 rating.
They deserve the success of their hard work and quality service.

And I rally love their cheesesteak egg rolls! Can’t forget about them!

Support this amazing local Baltimore restaurant! And after you have their amazing food leave a good review to boost them.

The do a great job, and deserve the success for their hard work, and delicious food!
Screw the haters!
It Taste Great! … I mean Great Taste! 😜❤️✌️🕺🙏“

“I Love the food. You just have to wait so long you can be the only one, Look 6 more people plus the 2 callin orders. Call in and still wait 45 minutes. Can't win. Gotta eat.“

“My review might be different if I went for lunch instead of dinner, as it was relatively empty and some things interesting characters came in and wandered the restaurant while we were eating.

First, and most importantly, the food was incredible. We ordered a bunch of dim sum, and a scallion and egg fried rice. Overall, we ordered the pork soup dumplings, shrimp shumai, crystal shrimp dumplings, beef pastry, gluttonous, rice, Chinese burger and the scallion and egg fried rice.

The food was delicious, especially the shrimp shumai, the beef pastry, and the fried rice.

The staff was friendly, but unattentive unless prompted by me, but it could’ve just been an awful night.

Will definitely be back for the food, but likely for takeout“

“great food cheap call first location not so great but who cares if you order a head your in and out . They need to make a better menu thou“

“Egg foo young should not be CRUNCHY!!! Whoever made mine on the day of order had not mastered cracking eggs without mixing eggshells in... I asked for and received a full refund. Will never return. That experience was a violation I will not risk repeating.“

“Good food good service“

“Stopped by Panda City for a quick bite and was not disappointed. I ordered the fried rice and a 5-piece fried chicken wing combo and they nailed both.

The fried rice was flavorful without being greasy, with the right amount of seasoning and a nice mix of veggies. The real standout, though, was the fried chicken wings. Crispy on the outside, juicy inside, and fried to perfection — easily some of the best wings I’ve had from a carryout spot.

Service was quick, prices were solid, and everything came out fresh. If you're craving carryout with consistently good flavors, Panda City is a solid go-to. Highly recommend!“

“We had ate at other places in arbutus but this is dure the best one you can see them cook your food and the wo.an cashier is very nice the chef cooks the food as we like it very understanding thank you guys for picking arbutus we look forward of eating great food“

“The food is not only beautifully presented but it’s also delicious! The atmosphere feels welcoming and the place is stunning, btw. But the real standout was our waitress, Anna. She was attentive without being overbearing and genuine in her recommendations that made our meal awesome. We could tell she takes pride in her job which truly elevated the whole experience! We will be retuning for all of the yumminess and asking to sit in Anna’s section for sure!!“

“04/26/25 was my first time eating here. I always pick up for my DoorDash clients but never myself. When I walked in as a customer it was friendly and welcoming. I advised the person at the counter that I have never eaten here and there exact reply was “ but you always come for doordash pickups” we both laughed and enjoyed the small moment. I order a small shrimp fried rice, small plain white rice, order of crab sticks and 4 wings with shrimp fried rice. The food was absolutely delicious, it was hot, tasty and worth the experience. If you are in a rush to eat this is not the place as the food stays hot very long which to me is a good thing 😊🤪. I will definitely be returning to try more options.“

“Great spot for breakfast. Food was great. Everyone was friendly even to us Browns fans in town for the game.“

“Honestly speaking it’s not easy to find Chinese Restaurants that make really good General Tso and Orange chicken. Oriental Wok is the best place in the east Baltimore area for these dishes. Every single time I order my favorite dish it’s perfect. The chicken is not soggy and perfectly fried with the right amount of crunchiness. The sauce is a perfect blend of spices and sweetness that will have you addicted. Thank you Oriental Wok for making me love this dish again that I have eaten since I was a kid.“

“First time eating today , I really wanted some YAKAMIEN! It’s season well but the only thing I wish ( it was darker and greasy ?) it be so good that way . I will go back to get more and I’m glad they answer the PHONE QUICK! I called my order in rather me sitting in my car in a dark area .I wish they had this in the COUNTY ! Just a FYI, I literally have to drive 30 mins for this and it’s worth it.“

“After visiting the Bethesda location I was excited to hear a nicer sichuan restaurant was opening in Charlie's Village. We brought a big group and we're not disappointed. Yes I'm sure some of the Chinese Americans who visit say it isn't 100% authentic, duh! But it's better than most of what you can find in the area. Also, I never trust reviews from takeout customers.“

“No frills delicious affordable Chinese food that's it. Come with cash it's a small business. Food always is ready in 15 minutes and is all flavorful. Only reason not 5 some of their versions of dishes aren't in line wish a lot of other Chinese in Baltimore and my gf doesn't care for a few of their dishes.“

“What time do they open always try to get food but not sure of the time it’s completely different then online time“

“So I usually order the same thing through GrubHub and ask for no onions. Today I forgot to mention that so they called to ask if I needed no onions! This place has great, saucy yumminess, great prices, and above all... They actually care about their customers! It's very rare these days... Go here, for sure.“

“So I finally had the opportunity to get myself some food from Peking Court and I must admit it really was good & I'm quite glad that I stopped by! My friend rice was fresh not sticky and the orange chicken was full of flavor....I usually save some food for later, but I wound up eating it all???...Yup, I'll be going back!??“

“This was literally the best pizza I’ve had in a very long time. Stephanie the manager was so kind and professional when I called with questions because this was my first time ordering from Kings. The wings were a nice size and flavorful. The cheesesteak sub was incredible. All the ingredients are fresh and delicious. Thank you Stephanie for such an amazing experience. This is now my go to pizza and sub place.“

“This place is wonderfully clean and beautiful, recommended by my older brother when we went there today!
Food: Sushi had my mouth watering and the egg rolls and taro milk tea and seafood combo was especially delicious! The boba in the taro milk tea impresses me most due to its soft texture and easily chewy flavor!!

Service: For at first I was a bit skeptical of the place my brother recommended, because of course it was in Baltimore city. The servers were kind and helpful in every aspect of the experience here! It gave me a more optimistic outlook about what Baltimore city is really going for.

Atmosphere: Outside the restaurant is a bit shady and gray but the inside was burning with inviting and welcoming air which disproved my recent suspicions. Music was nice and simple, giving the place a lovely feeling of warmth and comfort sitting down on simple but nice chairs.

Conclusion: 10/10 would go back again when given the chance! P.S, they even have a few vegetarian options which I will definitely use if I were vegetarian“

“I had an amazing experience at this restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious, with fresh ingredients and perfectly balanced flavors. The service was top-notch—attentive, friendly, and efficient. The ambiance was warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot for any occasion. Everything from start to finish exceeded my expectations. I’ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great meal!“

“I been eating here for over 10 years, and the food never changed.always a 10/10 I done had a few different things from here. It’s that Hood Chinese food you looking for. Lot of action outside that’s why you call your order in and pick it up.“

“I wanted orange chicken at 11 and they sold me orange chicken at 11. Servers were very patient with me as a first-time customer, I was in and out fast, and the food was cheap, tasty, and filling. I also got a free egg roll just thrown in - didn't eat it because I wasn't that hungry, but it was a nice gesture.“

“This place has the best yak!!!!! anyway my wife and i had a General taso, spicy orange chicken and white rice with a side of broccoli and yakimi.This is the best i ever had far as a Chinese or Korean spot no disrespect but yall get the big 5 from me,not bland season perfection at it's best💯💯💯💯“

“One of the best Chinese food spots I’ve had.
I had a craving for Chinese food and found China House not far from my Airbnb, glad I did. I ordered the General Tso’s Chicken combo, which came with rice, a shrimp egg roll, and a delicious tea. The food was fresh, the chicken was crispy and flavorful, and the fried rice had tasty vegetables that made it even better. I finished everything! The wait time was short less than 10 minutes and the service was smooth. If I’m ever back in Baltimore, I’m definitely coming here again“

“I enjoy ordering here a lot. I usually get take out, but did notice limited seating. They have these lovely guava sweets too. The price is excellent for the value they provide. I usually get the wok special fried rice or lo mein. My friend loves their beef fried rice. The portions are large and I’m usually able to eat it 2-3 times. I had the wonton soup once but wasn’t a fan. I am willing to try their other soups however. More bang for your buck. I’ll keep coming back. I love that they close late, good for those of us who close later in the day.“

“Noticeably kind people. I ordered the “Four Treasure”, a chefs suggestion dish with a combination of meats and variety of veggies in a spicy black bean sauce. It was really delicious and the ingredients were super fresh. You can they put extra care into the food, both the egg rolls and crab wontons were also delightful appetizers that had a homemade touch. I’ll certainly be adding Chow Mein Charlie to my rotation of great takeout spots here in Baltimore.“

“They are very accommodating for special diets. I love that it reminds me of Chinese food from my youth.“

“Wow! This food was so good. Their $2 fries are phenomenal! My son loves their cheeseburger sub. We finally tried the Shrimp Fried Yak and I was blown away. They put a nice amount of shrimp in there. I should have gotten an extra boiled egg. Too bad they open late.“

“The Yat ga mei is TERRIBLE! Other than that nice ppl, nice other food. But Yat Ga Mei is a Baltimore thing, I can’t believe there’s still places in the city that can’t get it right. I’d pay extra for the other food if I could get a refund for the Yat! Lol but dead serious. God Bless!

Vegetarian options: Plenty and good“

“I recently ordered from this Chinese carry-out spot and was seriously impressed. The food was hot, fresh, and full of flavor. The portions were more than generous for the price. The order was prepared quickly, packaged well, and nothing was soggy or overcooked. If you're looking for a reliable place for tasty Chinese food, this is the right place for you. I’ll definitely be coming back again.“

“Food is GAS!!! Best hot and sour soup of my life. Orange chicken is bomb. Has real orange bits in there. Made with love.
Spent 18 bucks. 6 on the soup (amazing value) 12 on the chicken. Tad pricey for the chicken but the food is fire.“

“Deliciousness. The Bourbon Chicken over lo mein is so goodEdit: I cant believe I didnt know they were open again but better late than never. StokedFollow up: Bourbon Chicken ztill on point. I miss the poorly written sign on the glass that said Bourbon Chicken, but it makes me feel special knowing that it's on the "secret menu"“

“The food is on point and the quality is consistent. What really stands out the most is that sweet lady that always sounds like your friendly auntie from next door. She always remembers my order and always fixes any issue I have right away. There were chop sticks in my bag unaware to my knowledge I asked for another pair and with out hesitation she ran and got another pair. When I looked in the bag I realized the extra mile she took just to show me that she cared more about my satisfaction rather than being right. Please guys reciprocate the positive energy because this is my late night Food hero. I cant see my self hitting up any other china spot, that would just be cheating!!!“

“I haven't bought Chinese food in years but I remember an ex loved the food from this place so craving some shrimp egg foo young with fried vegetable rice I went and was very pleased they don't take CC BUT! they do take cash app so that made the experience a new one free young guys may hang around the store FREQUENTLY but they don't be on nothing think they have some mutual respect for the owner and the owner of the store pretty friendly so don't be put off food is real good store is clean if you haven't give them a shot“

“Hands down the best cheesesteak egg rolls I’ve ever had. ? I mean ?! Shrimp egg foo young and shrimp & beef fried rice all HITTN. Definitely going back even though its a cash only spot and althought I placed my order and told them I would run to grab cash and be right back they didnt start making my order until I returned with the cash. ??“

“Great place!“

“LUV THIS PLACE THEY GOT A BEST CHOW MEI FUN“

“My son would still order from here, even he moved far away. Excellent food!“
