50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Derwood

“China Jade is one of our absolute favorites!
My husband and I have keep it in regular rotation alongside China Bistro (Mama's Dumplings), and Sichuan Jin River. Becky and Wendy are incredibly hospitable, and the food is consistently spot-on. We especially come for their authentic Szechuan and Cantonese dishes — always flavorful, always satisfying. A must-try! Generous portions deliver excellent value at a fair price.“

“I have nothing but good things to say about Gourmet Asian Bistro (7224 Muncaster Mill Rd, Derwood, MD 20855). It offers Chinese, Thai, and sushi. I've eaten there 3 times in the past 2 weeks, and it's been excellent every time and affordable! The vegetable tofu soup ($2.95) is huge, satisfying, and full of veggies. The wonton soup ($2.95) has 3 good sized wontons. Both soups come with a bowl of tastier-than-average fried wonton strips on the side that I end up munching on during the entire meal. The sizzling black pepper beef ($16.95?) was tasty, but I was more impressed by the noodle dishes. The beef chow fun ($14.95?) and the Singapore mei fun ($13.95) were beautifully seasoned and cooked perfectly. I've also gotten the salmon nigiri ($5.95?) a couple times, and it's generously portioned and fresh with great quality salmon. Every meal ends with a complimentary tiny scoop of vanilla ice cream and fortune cookie. There are plenty of good Chinese restaurants in MoCo, but Gourmet Asian Bistro is my current favorite for best flavor and value.“

“I like authentic Chinese food and this place has dishes that are very similar to what I had in China. It’s really hard to find Chinese restaurants in the states that aren’t “Americanized.”

The numbing picked sour fish soup was delicious, and the side dishes (marinated chicken slices and cucumber salad) was extremely flavorful.“

“Excellent noodles here with authentic taste. I stopped by after getting a recommendation to come here from a nearby gym. The ordering process was simple with the kiosk. Plenty of parking nearby in the parking garage. The dishes were affordable and good size portions. The service was quick and food was delicious. It isn't going to be your Din Tai Fung or anything fancy, but it is simple and gets you filled and going.
Suitable dishes for anyone here.“

“We have been to TaiPei Tokyo Cafe several times and have enjoyed the meal and the service from Flora and Kylie. They and the way our food was prepared and served always makes the visit enjoyable. I have tried many items on their menu and never disappointed. We will certainly go back. John“

“My husband and I have been here a couple of times now and the food we’ve tried never disappoints! Everything is delicious and for dishes that we thought were a bit too pricey, their generous portion definitely makes up for it! We especially love the fish dishes here. Great service too. One of our favorite spots whenever we’re in the area!“

“Best egg drop soup that I've had in years! The eggplant loves green bean was fantastic. We're ordering again tonight to try other items.“

“Their food is delicious, the soup dumplings are my favorite. Wish I was still living in the area so I could get there more often. ^^“

“The food here is passable, the customer service is terrible. They're supposed to provide a fork and napkins, but when you open the bag the food comes in, there's nothing. You have to keep asking, and they only give you one napkin. I mean, hi... very bad service. That's why they only get one star.“

“Love this hidden gem. Food is great every time.“

“Omg, this place is amazing! Super chill vibes, food came out hot and fast (under 10 mins!), and it was so good. Kevin the manager is awesome, and the service was top-tier. One of the best Chinese spots I’ve ever been to—bring the whole family. Highly recommend!“

“Outdoor picnics delight As good as usual“

“I had dinner with my friends at this place for several times. The food is good. i am not happy about the recent mooncake order. My assorted flavor order (6) contains only purple yam and mix nuts. Purple yam flavor is not listed in the original order website. The most similar one is purple yam and egg yolk. My expectation would be one cake for each flavor with one / two duplicates. Then I made the call for confirmation, I was told that the assorted flavor order are picked by mooncake master. It would more helpful to specify such information in the website. Otherwise, a little disappointed after one month wait.“

“The restaurant is nothing fancy but is one of my favorite rice noodles soup. So many different soup varieties but I love kimchi fatty beef and my partner always gets tomatoes 🍅😆 And if you like spicy, highly recommend the Spicy Beef Tripe Rice Noodles!

You can choose to cook yourself at the table which is what we did. It comes with all the sides that you would put in the noodles soup. It's so much more fun 😁 and the soup is very hot so don't worry the meat will cook just fine. Such flavorful soup and silky smooth rice noodles, it's the best in the winter time.“

“I ordered from here for the first time and the service was great! They made our food in a fair amount of time and the food tasted good. Their half and half iced tea lemonade was amazing. I ordered two of those after trying out a cup from one container.“

“I love this place for the vibe and the fact that it stays open until 2:00 a.m. is a huge bonus. Sometimes I’m just so hungry late at night and there’s nowhere else open. Weekends are especially fun when other diners get into the karaoke. It creates such a lively and welcoming atmosphere.

On my first visit, our server was named Vicky (or Vicki) she was super sweet, very attentive, and made us feel comfortable the entire time. Overall, just a great server!

The food was decent, and I’ll definitely be coming back, mostly for the awesome late-night energy and fun vibe.“

“The food was good. Avoid the beef spare rub entre but definitely get pan fried noodles with Seafood and the Duck dishes. Dim sum is also tasty!!“

“I would consider myself a connoisseur of all Asian foods from Chinese to Japanese, Korean ,Vietnamese, Thai and everything in between. House of Foo Ling is definitely a favorite . The owner is so personable and always remembers that I like her soft shell crab dish which is cooked to order and always outstanding. I also enjoy The Egg Foo Yung , Thai Basil Shrimp, Salt and Pepper Shrimp, as well as the Orange chicken or Orange shrimp. I can’t wait to take my family as I know they will enjoy it as much as my best friend and I do. You will never be disappointed.!!! 10/10 ❤️“

“Classic! Went for a quick lunch, but definitely will be back to taste more!
Edit — been back twice now. Really good food. My only suggestion is to get the timing right, because there can be quite a wait, but that speaks to the quality!“

“Stepping into this place felt like I’d been teleported straight into Hong Kong—no plane ticket, no jet lag, just pure dim sum magic. The décor? Authentic down to the teapots. The air buzzes with people chatting in Chinese, which immediately told me: I’d stumbled into the real deal.

The dim sum came out piping hot, the tea never stopped flowing, and the service had that endearing “mom energy” where they ask what you want before you even know yourself. Every bite was fresh, flavorful, and dangerously good.

Final verdict: five stars. So good I forgot to take photos—too busy living my best Hong Kong food fantasy right here at home.“

“Love enjoying lunch and dinner here. I enjoy the staff and make sure you make reservations because the weekend evenings get pretty packed. Good food Good atmosphere Good staff Highly recommend“

“This place is SOOOO good. Wanted to introduce my dad to hot pot and THIS is the place I'm brining him to tomorrow. So many options, even if they didnt have skewers it'd be 10/10. But they do. So it's 15/10 for me. Keep doing what you do ya'll. We are regulars and always will be ❤️“

“This restaurant has been in business for many years, which proves the quality of the food is very good. I always take my grandmother here to eat because they have many vegetarian dishes. The interior and atmosphere aren't very appealing, but be polite because all the staff are elderly.“

“oh my goodness. Everything, the freshest seafood I've seen in just about ever, delicious broths, huge portions, great presentation. My first hot pot experience and I will be back, a lot of times. Met the owner, and he was wonderful too. I highly suggest supporting this tasty, and fresh establishment“

“The food is authentic and delicious. From the dumpling noodle soup, seafood congee, string beans in garlic sauce, duck and other menu items; I have yet to have a bad meal here.“

“Good parking; though only 2 spaces! GREAT egg drop 🍜 soup (my favorites). Wheelchair accessible. 👩‍🦽“

“Since discovering this local restaurant a few months ago, I've ordered from here around a dozen times. This is partly due to the fact that my partner considers the moo shu chicken at this place the best she's had. I have liked everything I've tried thus far. And the prices can't be beat.“

“I’m originally from New York, where you get the best Chinese food in America. We searched far and wide in Maryland since we moved here, and this restaurant is equal to New York! It is so delicious. Their Crab Rangoon is actually the best I ever had. My son loves the vegetarian chicken. Every single thing we have gotten from them has been fantastic. Highly recommend!“

“I ordered food for an event . The lady was very helpful and really nice . She gave me so many options and prices .
Good was delicious and all the people at my party were delighted by the food . 🥘
Price is good and affordable, for the price it was a lot of food . I ordered special lo mein and spring rolls .
I will go back for future events and parties , and I will go try food for lunch specials.

Thank you 😊“

“The egg drop soup is AMAZING. However, I found the steamed dumplings and spring rolls to be lacking flavor. The dumplings had large chunks of spring onion in them and barely any meat. Also, they were closer to Gyoza than Chinese dumplings. the spring roll had a great crunch, but barely any ingredients inside. I will definitely be going back for the soup and to try other dishes, but am disappointed so far.“

“I love this place. I’ve gone 3 times in the past 2 months and can say they have become one of my fav Chinese joints to visit for some grub. My favs to order are the grandma’s braised pork belly, the chili oil pork wonton, and scallion pancake (this item is dine in only). Also had the full Peking duck and can recommend that too. Everything is delicious and the servers/crew are pretty nice. Glad to have them here.“

“Honestly, one of the best Chinese food I have ever had. The flavors and texture of every dish are amazing. The service was perfect, they were patient and very knowledgeable explaining each of our menu questions, which by the way looks a little intimidating, but we loved it.

We were also impressed by the speed, I don't think we waited more than 5 min for the first dish to arrive, then it was one after the other.

Unfortunately I didn't take pictures, but we ordered
Square beef noodles(perfectly smoked)
Tofu with veggies
Crispy eggplant (my favorite) though it's (caramized) but the texture goes very well with all other dishes.
Soup pork dumplings

Can't wait to be back!“

“This is a takeout place. I ordered delivery, which was expensive. With delivery fee, convenience fee, tax, and tip, the cost was more than double for the food.
I was pleasantly surprised by the food. I ordered two lunches. You get a choice of appetizers. The wonton soup is much tastier than at most restaurants. The egg roll was pretty good.
I ordered shrimp with vegetables, which comes in a white sauce. The shrimp was cooked perfectly, and the vegetables were crisp. For under $3 extra, you can get plain lo mein instead of rice. It was tasty.
I also ordered Szechuan pork. It's supposed to be spicy. I found it mildly spicy. It comes with broccoli, carrots, and onions. They give you plenty of pork, and the sauce has a nice flavor.
I will get their food again, but not with delivery.“

“First off, the waitress was so kind and attentive! Also, the portions are huge; the photo doesn’t even do it justice! I had the pork pan fried dumplings which were some of the best I’ve ever had and the Sichuan beef noodle soup which was good, but nothing spectacular. The broth was super flavorful but the noodles and beef itself were quite average. I probably won’t return for the soups, just out of personal preference towards bigger noodles, but the dumplings were delicious!“

“The food and service was very good! Generous portion of food.“

“Great food, speedy excellent service, and excellent vibes. The music they play overhead is pretty loud though, but, it’s definitely a nice spot to go out w/ The family or w/ riends.“

“The Lady is mean not the daughter but the mom, I don't what's wrong with her she always grumpy at me and the rice they don't mixed well when is fried rice you can see lot of white rice spot because they don't mixed well, I like the food but because of her attitude my head hurts alot when I go there ,that's right I don't buy often is really rare that I order food from there, she needs to change her attitude to get more customers.“

“Something to be said for doing the traditional dishes well above average. Hot and sour soup tangy and full of veggies. Sesame and teriyaki chicken top notch. Beef and broccoli and pork fried rice all you could ask for. Portions are ample, and service consistently cordial. Plenty of parking. Plenty of options. Just what a good neighborhood Chinese restaurant should provide. And leftovers for seconds, maybe even thirds“

“Love this hidden gem. Food is great every time.“

“We visited this spot for lunch or dinner while working around the Wharton area. Since moving to Philly, we make it a point to return every year for lunch. Their Watercrest Stir Fry is a must-try, thanks to its tempting garlic aroma and crunchy Watercress. We particularly enjoy their deep-fried Silver Fish and Pork Chop—absolutely tasty. The pork intestines are also outstanding. If you love authentic cuisine, this is a place you should definitely visit.“

“If you are looking for a good Chinese carry out? This is the place you want to check out. It’s hard finding a place where the food taste fresh. Orange chicken, honey sesame chicken will not disappoint. Parking is a breeze and the lady in the front is nice! Will continue to come here“

“Great food, best of all is that they can make a lot of things on the menu gluten free which is awesome! I usually get pepper steak and fried rice! Very delicious and good portions. Their sushi is really good too!

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free - Wheat free“

“Our go to affordable Chinese takeout. They don’t skimp on the food and always fill it to the brim. We always order their pork fried rice, chefs delight, and fried dumplings.
This time we ordered their crispy beef and salt & pepper fish.
Crispy beef - It is thinly sliced and the beef is dry. However, we like to order it because of the crunchy texture and the sweet and spicy flavor.

Salt & pepper fish- Well fried and not oily. It has a very good mild jalapeño flavor.

My interaction with the lady has always been congenial on the phone and in-person. I’ve“

“yum yum yum I ❤️ this place. me and my bf have gotten the same thing here like three days straight it’s just so solid and makes me really happy I can enjoy good Chinese food! I recommend the salt and pepper pork chops and the meatballs (no idea what they’re called on the menu). really really yummy!! I always do takeout so idk abt in-person service but I recommend!“

“Ok so I have had the shrimp with brocolli and white rice a few times which was really good. But today I ordered the singnapore noodles with shrimp and I put non spicy and it was a little too spicy for me, but it was still good, I just prefer less spice. The spring roll or egg roll was so delicious and crunchy. The cheesecake was horrible and frozen. I couldn't even eat it. I shouldv'e maybe ordered the vanilla cake.“

“Rating vegetarian food - not sure about anything else.
They have a good selection, and the vegetables seem fresh.
I like to make sure there is no meat/ chicken/ or fish, broth, or otherwise, in the sauce (restaurants don't always think of that), so you'll want to ask if needed. I hope they don't have any chicken or meat broth in the vegetable dishes!
The vegetarian sushi is yummy, made to order.“

“I had an amazing experience at this vegetarian Indian restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious — full of flavor, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. Every dish tasted authentic and comforting. The service was just as impressive. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for great vegetarian Indian food and excellent service. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“They were pretty fast w my food, probably only 15-20 mins. I ordered an egg drop soup and 3 orders of 3 wings w fries. The food were really good, a pretty clean place. Good customer service. Plus my daughter knew one of the kids working there. Great place. I would recommend it for any people who loves Chinese food or trying it!“
