50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Elkridge

“Best steamed dumplings and wonton soup/egg drop wonton soup around. Dumplings are made in house and are full of meat. The wonton in the soup are full of meat too with a great broth. I haven’t been disappointed with anything there but those soup and dumplings are my go to dinner and it hits the spot every time.“

“outstanding food and service 🙂“

“Excellent food !! I especially love the General Tso’s chicken … The service is awesome also it’s always quick service and the ladies are very super nice . The lunch specials is a great value especially since the quality of the food is excellent. Thank you“

“Their food is really good. I've tried many other places and they are the best.“

“This is the best Chinese food we’ve had in a long time. I got egg drop soup and chicken with string beans, and both are delicious and super fresh. Portions are huge and prices are really reasonable. The owners were super friendly and helpful when we looked at the menu, and we will definitely be back.“

“We gave Asian Palace a try for lunch and had a great experience. The Pick 3 Sushi Lunch Special is not only a great deal but also delicious! I get the Alaskan roll, Spicy Yellowtail, and Veggie Tempura roll with a house salad. All three rolls are so good and the salad dressing is amazing. We have also tried Chicken Satay (the best I have ever had), the Godzilla roll, Spicy Fancy roll and the egg drop soup. All were fantastic. We will be definitely be making this a regular spot!“

“We've been here twice and found the pulled noodles live up to the reviews! We had the spicy oil and the pork, both were fantastic. For sides we love the cabbage and tofu.

The second time we brought friends here and they were just as impressed. Their teen has a lower spice tolerance and was a bit nervous, but they enjoyed the lunch bentos.

Seating is limited so you may have to wait if you're not getting takeout, but the system lets you know where you are in the wait-list. For us it moved pretty quickly.“

“This restaurant is the best I've been in the city.
The food is delicious and not pricey, the ambiance is great, and the Peking Duck is amazing.
On top of that, management gives a lot of importance to each and every customer. It really feels like you are received as a guest, and not just as a client.
5/5, would recommend if you are around !“

“Order via phone. Customer service was the best thing about it. Was over charged per their menu of about $3 more. Online it stated they would charge 3 more of lo mein substitute instead of rice, so that was another $3 over the menu price. Food was standard tasting nothing special. Order was off too. Ordered cheese wonton and got something with meat in it. Ordered plain fried rice and got chicken fried rice with little flavoring. The general tso was mostly breading and sauce, and the broccoli wasn't cooked to softness. Will not go back.“

“I had to stop eating to post my appreciation for this restaurant. This is my second time patronizing them: first time I sat in for a quick bite with my sister, and this time I ordered for pick up. Both times service was quick and friendly. The restaurant itself is simple, almost cafeteria-like, but the staff is kind and accomodating....and the soups are delicious! So delicious that I stopped after 2 sips to write this review. 🫶🏾“

“The noodle soup was so flavorful and was perfect! I had the signature dish Lanzhou Beef Noodle Soup with thin noodles. The noodles are hand pulled and made fresh every day and you can tell by the excellent texture and flavor! My new favorite restaurant! Also we were honored by four songs excellently played on the baby grand piano. Thank you for a delightful dinner, perfect service, and inviting atmosphere. I highly recommend Chopin Noodle House and look forward to trying more dishes on the menu. ❤“

“Had a really great experience here! The food was delicious — fresh, flavorful, and served hot. The atmosphere was clean, comfortable, and had a welcoming vibe that made it easy to relax and enjoy the meal. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel genuinely welcome from the moment we walked in. Definitely a spot I’d come back to again and recommend to others looking for good Halal Chinese food and great service!“

“My server Silas was excellent! He was very attentive, professional, and always made sure me and my daughters enjoyed our meal. The manager was also very nice and helped us sign up for the rewards for an even better experience. I highly recommend the Columbia, MD location!!! I'm looking forward to visiting again.“

“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!“

“We visited this evening. Food was fantastic! I really enjoyed the soup dumplings! The staff was super courteous. I had brought in dessert (a cake) from outside and they were super nice about it. They even offered to refrigerate it for us! After dinner, they brought us fresh plates, forks and a knife. Despite being very busy they also don't rush you too much.“

“This place is a cozy gem. Good prices, service and less crowded than akira. Felt more private. To talk about the food..I had the Beef ramen with veggie broth and really enjoyed it. Also the lamb and chicken kabobs were SUPER well seasoned, juicy and fresh. We never wait too long for service or even to be served. The staff is pretty nice, havent ever had an issue with them; during peak hours they do tend to get a bit visibly stressed out but its understandable since its a small buisness . I'll add food pictures the next time I come by. The decorations give the resturant a cute/ welcoming charm..it has colored lights on the ceiling along with funko pops around.

side note: thank you for turning the music on, it was a bit too quiet beforehand and helped to relax a bit more!“

“My husband and I come here often for date nights. We have an excellent experience every single time. The food is always incredible and the service outstanding even when it's busy. The vibe is calm, quiet, fun, and elegant. Highly recommend East Moon to those in the Ellicott City area!!!“

“My husband comes in whenever he is in the area, lucky for me I was with him today. We enjoyed hearing the chef sing while we waited for our food. Our food especially the crab cheese wontons were delicious. We gave a cash tip and the man was so grateful. We just wanted to let him know that we appreciated the friendly atmosphere, kindness goes a long way!“

“(Ordered delivery) We did a Google search of near by places to eat. We decided to order from here and we are so glad we did. Food was plentiful and delicious. Made our family very happy! It was packed up very neat and organized! This will definitely be on our favorite list to order from! Thank you Bruce Lee Kitchen for an amazing meal!!“

“A Linthicum Heights staple that never misses! The General Tso's Chicken is a family favorite — perfectly crispy and flavorful, and the portions are huge. Fast service, always hot and ready when you arrive for pickup. The menu has everything you could want from Chinese and Thai dishes.“

“I’m new to the Anne Arundel County area and it’s been so hard finding good Chinese carryout. We’ve tried over five places and every single one missed the mark. Last night my mother-in-law and I decided to give this place a try, and we’re so glad we did. I got the shrimp moo shu and she got the bourbon chicken — both were absolutely delicious. The portions were huge, the prices were great, and the food was super fresh. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Their services is great.“

“i was hesitant bc it's hard to find a place that makes beef & broccoli the way i enjoy it. just gotta say... pleasantly surprised! i no longer have to go to columbia near route 1 for my favorite beef & broccoli anymore when i can get the same flavor and possibly even better quality right around the corner! the portions were supposed to be small... but they were GIGANTIC!!! Moms looked like she didn't even eat anything! she said she used to eat there all the time when she worked so she was happy to find it again... and that the quality was still on par! my beef was tender and flavorful and the broccoli was nice and squishy with a bit of firm crunch. soaked up all that flavor in the florets... just delicious! China taste indeed, thank you!“

“Tried them for the first time today and am sold. Best Chinese food my wife and I have tasted in ages, and we lived in NYC for 4 years. Singapore mei fun - excellent. Happy family - excellent. Combination fried rice - excellent. Shrimp egg rolls - best I've ever tasted, anywhere. Steamed dumplings - very good, but the wrapping was a bit thick and the sauce was a bit scanty. We look forward to trying many, many more selections. Great job!“

“First time eating here and the food was great and they were super nice!“

“Great food and fresh!!! We came back to columbia just to have lunch there :) haven’t lived there in over20 years“

“The food was delicious! Highly recommend hot crispy beef and the honey sesame eggplant!“

“I finally had the infamous Dirty Yak Spicy with shrimp and extra egg and….I enjoyed it! It was true to its word when they said spicy which I can appreciate. Once ya nose start running…..that’s how you know it’s hot! I like the noodle consistency and texture. The ratio of noodle to shrimp was good. It was well seasoned. Great portion size for the price. The wait time was prompt. No complaints here. Look forward to trying other items on the menu in the future.“

“WOAH! first time trying this place because my friend recommended it me and my taste buds were wowed. Food came out hot, it was busy so we did wait a little but not a big deal I love talking with friends before the food comes. Will be coming back !“

“Walked in on a whime while attending training for work. I was greeted, which is major to me. Even if they didn’t greet me I would have typed a review and left one Star. Nonetheless. I was greeted. I asked a few questions and they were answered. I made my order, got my food and was impressed. The pizza was soooo good. One slice was definitely enough for me. Price was great as well. Will definitely pay them a visit again. Keep up the great work.“

“We drove down bmore just to get some Yak!

First time trying it and it was a sooooooo good!! Beef yak , extra onions and extra egg! Amazing! We will be back for the chicken yak.
The ride was definitely worth it!! Yummmyyy! My boyfriend and I ate it all and the bowls are HUGH!!! We will be back 😊“

“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.“

“I read the reviews on Google and I said let's give it a try. It was more than one I could ask for, great egg rolls. They were huge and cooked perfectly, I enjoyed them very much😋 I have driven past here many times, so glad I googled and read the good reviews.“

“This was my first time here, staff great, very clean.the food was great and well worth the money. Thanks

Parking: That parking is very bad, I wish they could move to a nicer place.

Wheelchair accessibility: I didn't see any people park were they want, and I need the handi cap“

“Always good food and excellent service“

“I ordered beef hofun and personally found the taste quite good. However, what I really like is their hofun. I've tried hofun at many places, and this restaurant's hifun are not sticky. The flavor is mild for me, but I think it's a bit strong. After all, everyone has different taste preferences. Overall, I think it's pretty good.“

“I used to never see anyone going in there and one day I decided to try it and oh my goodness the food is absolutely delicious and even though I've never seen anybody go in there they STAY BUSY and you get your food in a timely manner. I give it a five-star atmosphere because once entered and you see the people in there the customers everyone is just so nice and patiently waiting even striking up conversations with each other except for one of my neighbors she called and gave them a hard way to go because she was charged for extra shrimp 🦐 as if she didn't know yes there is a cost for extras. There's only two people that work in there the lady and I guess it may be her husband and they work very hard preparing orders. I'm sold on this business.“

“I purchased the general Tao’s chicken, white rice and pork egg roll. It all was amazing. More food for the money. I can eat 3 times with this meal. Egg rolls were crispy like I like them. I definitely will be back. I ate most of this. Forgot to take a beginning photo.“

“This is my go-to spot in Mondawmin Mall whenever I’m hungry and need something quick, cheap, and filling. I’ve ordered from China Yum at least 8–10 times now (mostly online pickup or delivery), and it never disappoints. The portions are HUGE — one combo plate (General Tso’s or sesame chicken with fried rice and an egg roll) easily feeds me for two meals, and it’s only $9–$12. Chicken is always crispy, sauce is flavorful (nice sweet heat), rice is fresh, and veggies are cooked just right.
Online ordering is smooth, food is ready fast even during lunch rush, and the staff is friendly and gets the order right every time. Delivery through DoorDash/Uber Eats comes hot and accurate too. For mall food court Chinese, this place is consistently the best option in the area — way better than average. If you’re shopping at Target or just passing through, stop here. You won’t be mad. Highly recommend! 🥡🍗“

“Best wonton soup!! Nice dining experience, with friendly staff. Fast service, wonderful food.“

“Some friend took Us to Mandarin House in the early 90's. From then to 2009 (moving out of state), it was our Go-To place for incredibly delicious Chinese food and always a big hit with whoever We took there. If I had any complaint, it might be that the dish was blander than I expected, although still good. ALWAYS top rate service and food!\n We were visiting family and friends in Maryland last week and made it a point to sop here for lunch. I had the General Tso lunch special (with Pork Fried Rice and an egg roll) that was as good as I remember while my wife went for her usual, Eggplant With Hot Garlic Sauce. We took takeout to go with Us: Chef's Spicy Crispy Shrimp, Morengo Delight and for the "kids" (daughter and her husband), it was Happy Family and Chef's Spicy Crispy Beef. All sumptuous.\n Their prices have gone up (but sadly, whose has not the last few years?), but the portions are filling and our usual server "Carlos" was as cool as ever. Almost every Chinese restaurant that We have gone to has gotten "It's good...but it's not Mandarin House". Overlook the Strip Mall exterior and enjoy Your food.“

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

“Ordered many times and no matter what I get, it is always very good!! They are very nice also! Highly recommend!!“

“My first time and was treated especially nice by the staff. The food was awesome and the experience will go in the books as one of the best restaurants I have ever eaten at in MD ❤️“

“I ordered the shrimp lo mein combination. The egg roll was fresh and crispy. One of the better egg rolls I've had in a long time. They give you a large amount of food for the price. I've had better fried rice but overall I will be coming back. Friendly woman took my order. Clean place also.“

“The food is good The Fried chicken, half and half and shrimp fried Rice and Shrimp Egg rolls are so Tasty I just tried the shrimp yat main extra shrimp it was delicious and flavorful the best Chinese that nearest to me me and my husband purchase from them often. I recommend it.“

“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 stumbled across this gem on the evening of the 4th of July. My mom was in the mood for seafood soup, and none of my main spots was open. So as I was at a stop light, I quickly googled the closest open spot, and China America Inn was the 1st in line. I didn't even know this place was a place! And it's close to home too!! It's not a party place, so table seating is limited, BUT the food is so good you will want to take it home and devour it in your own comfort where you can relax afterward. I ordered 2 seafood soups, general tso, and buffalo wings. The man who took my order was super nice and informative about other options available. My mom LOVES the seafood soup!! the general tso was fantastic, well cooked and not hard, just like I want it. The wings were very flavorful as well. Thank you for making my mom happy!! She is very picky about how her seafood soup looks and tastes. She said 10 out of 10!! This is our new spot!!“

“Returning after 30 years, I was amazed to find the same owners at Peking Chef. While the world outside has transformed, the heart of this place hasn't changed. They still serve food made with integrity and warmth.

It’s especially commendable in today's economy. Despite rampant inflation, they haven't compromised on what matters: fresh, high-quality ingredients (and no MSG!), generous portions, and incredibly fair prices. The food is as delicious as I remember.

My visit was a perfect blend of nostalgia and a truly great meal. Thank you for the consistency and excellence.“
