Chinese Restaurants near Hillcrest Heights

“I ordered 10 buffalo wings and they gave me wings that were cooked earlier in the day and recooked them instead of cooking them fresh. I could not bite into the wings because they were so hard. I should have checked my food before pulling off.“

“Today my daughter birthday My first time with the family we loved it food was great thanks“

“You know you’re going to have good food when the servers get excited about your menu decisions. Everything was absolutely wonderful. We got to sit at the bar with a direct view of the kitchen. I don’t know if the octopus or the truffle dumpling was my favorite, but I know I’m getting both when I go back. The whole fried snapper had a delicious light breading. The duck noodles were tasty too; I will probably try to get it spicier next time. I’ll likely be back in a couple of weeks. I’m still thinking about the food. Also, this husband-wife team perfected my experience by ensuring such excellent service. They need to teach a workshop to other restauranteurs.“

“We had the portobello bao bun, pork dumpling, bbq duck, and little pot. Everything was delicious!“

“Excellent staff & fun atmosphere“

“The most affordable, fast and tasty lunch option in the area. It’s a family-owned spot with great lunch specials and options for vegetarians. Highly recommend. It’s more of a takeout spot, but they have a few seats if you need to eat lunch in house“

“fantastic food and service. Will definitely be back“

“This is in my top 3 takeout spots for the Crystal City area. The Mapo Tofu and Stone Pot Tofu Fish dishes are my favorites, but I haven't had anything bad yet. This is not your standard American style Chinese restaurant. The flavors are significantly more interesting. Be prepared for things to be spicy, in a terrific way.“

“Love this place! Happened upon it when I worked close by and went twice in one 3 days! The food is delicious, the ambiance is great, and their little server robot is adorable. The pork soup dumplings were the best I've had since returning to the states. Incredibly rich and meaty! Definitely check this place out!“

“Admittedly I’m inflating my rating because it’s hard to find good, not overly Western fusion-ed, Asian food in DC. I wouldn’t (and can’t) go anywhere else for dry pot and veg mapo tofu. Didn’t care for the dumplings I’ve tried so far but I will definitely continue working my way through the menu. I very much appreciate that this place exists on H St!“

“Omg best place in dc will come again“

“Consistently delicious and reliable. A neighborhood staple. Love the beef and onion dumplings, general tso’s chicken, broccoli shrimp… so many incredible things to try and with generous portions. Delivery from their website is fast as well.“

“This is THE spot for Kung pao chicken & fried rice lunch special. For almost under $10 a plate you get a great meal.

Kid-friendliness: Family friendly

Wheelchair accessibility: Handicap/wheelchair accessible“

“Must GO! MUST EAT! Sooo GOOD! Will NOT disappoint! YOU WILL GO BACK, AGAIN and again and again!“

“The food was very tasty and quality of service was excellent“

“Absolutely one of my favorite spots. I order from them regularly (Cameron Station). The Pork Belly and Sesame Tofu are to die for! the Lamb Dumplings also are very good. The Kale Chaat is excellent, and the Lamb Biryani was spicy. delicious and enough for luch the next day after 3 people ate off of it! Will definitely be checking out their $12 bowls! the Indochen in Old Town was too nice! Lamb Josh Rogan was good but I'll stick to the Biryani or try the Vindaloo next!“

“Finally found my Chinese spot! From VA to MD, this is the BEST Chinese food I’ve had. Everything was fresh and hot! Prep time was quick, they were friendly even though they were busy with a slew of call in orders and pickups.

Tried the general tso, shrimp fried rice, fries, spring rolls and wings plus the blue lemonade. Everything was delicious and the price point is great as well!

I can’t wait to get back and try more of their menu.“

“Food is always good! Very clean establishment (especially for a carry-out)

My favorites are the Shrimp and Broccoli, General Tso Shrimp and Crab Ragoons.

In addition I’ve only had the Orange chicken, beef and broccoli, shrimp fried rice, shrimp lomein, and sweet and sour chicken which were all good.“

“Under another person’s recommendation I decided to try Shanghai lounge. I ordered 3 things from the menu and I loved them all!!!!! Food was very tasty and flavorful. Best spring rolls, spicy cold sesame noodles and rice noodles with peanut sauce!!!!! ????“

“This is some seriously good Ameri-Chinese food. Fresh, flavorful, great portions—all for a respectable price. Yes, it’s carry-out only. Assuming that’s why they’re able to keep the prices so low. But I loved swinging by here on my way home because the family who owns the place are so, so sweet.“

“In DC for 6 days, if it weren’t for family gatherings that included tons of food, I Would Have EATEN HERE EVERYDAY! Seriously love, the Love! Bring some of this great food to Boston!😘“

“I had a taste for some carryout food so I decided to try this spot. I ordered fries with mumbo sauce and a cheeseburger. The mumbo sauce was good. The burger was good as well. I will be going back there again when I have a taste for carryout food.“

“Ordered for delivery. The bulgogi and vegetable stir fry were super tasty and had just the right amount of heat. Also ordered kimchi and the pickled cucumbers on the side. The cucumbers could’ve used a little more kick but overall, would definitely order again! :)“

“Food was very fast and very fresh. Tasty. Wine is good) recommend!

Kid-friendliness: Couple of kids around. Clearly stuff is really to help. Other customers doesn't feel uncomfortable. Appreciate it as a mother without child here“

“I think this place needs higher stars. We're visiting from Florida and made our way to Chinatown and were looking for a decent place to eat. The food and service was excellent. Better than I expected. We ate the curry chicken which tasted like real curry. Sesame chicken was fresh and flavorful. The food came out quickly. I highly recommend this place.“

“General tso's chicken was actually crispy. For once, I ate the entire chicken with broccoli dinner combo. Perhaps the best chinese-american restaurant for the area, but that standard varies with your taste, sauce preference, spiciness, etc ??‍♀️“

“The ONLY place in DC I get chinese food from. They have massive portions and you can tell the ingredients are fresh. I always get lo mein, seasame chicken, wonton soup and a taro boba tea. It lasts me for multiple meals which is perfect for my busy schedule. Also, the owner is an absolute gem of a human being. She takes alot of pride in her restaurant and it shows in her kindness, hospitality and delicious food. Thanks for keeping me full and happy!“

“Got take out twice in one week. Both times everything we ordered was so good! And the prices are great, esp for DC! Can’t wait to come back to DC to get the wonderful sushi from here again! The sashimi app and the jalapeño yellowtail roll are phenomenal! Highly recommend.“

“Best decision I made today was reconnecting to Chinese food again thanks to Eastern!! Not only are the deals and service amazing but the quality and taste of the food is phenomenal not to mention the quantity of the food is just mind blowing. I went for lunch and the first thing I noticed was how clean it was, I mean spick and span. As I walked up to pick up my food I was greeted with such kindness. I definitely will be coming here more now that I’m able to eat Chinese again!! Mind you this is Lunch size portion Hunan tofu with fried rice.“

“Service was great and people were friendly. We went out of our way to try this place in hopes of finding “better”, but the food was not any different than any other take out Chinese food we’ve had and this place seemed more expensive. The thing I like most is their mambo sauce for wings- very good. We would probably go back if we were in the area.“

“食物新鲜 ，每个订单都是特别订做的。全手工制作的食品。“

“The dish that I ordered was great!!!“

“Our go to place. Love that the expansion gives us the option to dine in or get delivery!“

“Brunch menu on their website hadn’t been updated, it’s now 75 minutes for bottomless brunch but the website says 90. They also wouldn’t give our table more than 1 brunch menu, but then the food on their website menu is wrong so you can’t even reliably reference that. Food was great, but you should order the bulk up front rather than trying to do multiple rounds because things can take up to 30 minutes to come out.“

“Missing tuxedo black and white cat last seen Dec 5,2014 in Arlington, Virginia- near the Clarendon area Barton Street /10th St N. /Pershing Drive, Washington, Blvd / Clarendon Male B&W SH named "Whiskers" , 4 years old- black face and tail, white chest. # is 7O3/ 243 / 7411 I would really appreciate if you could spread the word since I live right near your establishment.Thank you!“

“Trust me, the egg foo young is not greasy and really good... Right now they are my best place for egg foo young in all of DC. Egg patties are nicely cooked.... Gravy is also not dark brown or heavy (ask for it on the side to control your portion) Tasty ??“

“Kenny’s is a really solid carry out. The food is good. Not a ton of space to sit, which is typical of most Chinese food spots in this region. What stands out most about Kenny’s is the service. Unlike others, they don’t treat their customers like criminals, or like they’re afraid of us. The door to the back area is frequently opened. The employees greet me with a smile every time and ask me how my day is going. They remember me. They’re really kind and respectful, and as a black man, it’s rare to get that kind of service at a carry out. They usually just yell and poke food through bullet proof glass like they’re feeding sharks. It’s great to be treated like a fellow human being. I recommend the donuts. They’re super addictive!“

“Takeout only. Cash only. You can call ahead to place a pickup order. Wide variety of food options. It's delicious, great size portions, and the prices aren't bad. This is the only Chinese food I eat within the DMV, I will, and I have traveled over an hour to get food from them.“

“I've ordered from this place sooo much. I always get the sashimi, I usually get the sashimi platter. This last time I got the sashimi appetizer + vegetable dumplings. I have learned that this is one of the sushi places that plays with the term, "white fish." Some places use it for white tuna, some use it for yellowtail etc. I got the sushimi appetizer as it was advertised as salmon, tuna, and white fish--my favorites, except not the white fish I wanted lol. This was more translucent, and half-pink. That was my gamble. Can't really tell what the white sashimi I get in the platter is, I think its white tuna, but I won't make the mistake again.Nice, solid slices of shaved ginger. Good if you're sick! I do wish the sashimi came with a condiment cup like the veggie dumplings did. Veggie dumplings were fine, nice and plump.Also love that the place is open late--I've been a night owl my whole life, so works for me!5 stars overall. I've only been in-person once, and it was very pleasant. You need to be let in, which doesn't take long. Lots of randos wandering around Chinatown so I get it.“

“**Here’s a revised version of your Google review:**

**Good Company Doughnuts & Cafe** is a must-visit for breakfast or a leisurely afternoon. I've been a regular in recent weeks and have thoroughly enjoyed every visit.

The **Pastrami Breakfast Sandwich** is a standout. The pastrami is perfectly cooked and the flavors are incredible. I'd happily eat this on anything! The **Breakfast Burrito** (with chorizo) and the **Breakfast Sandwich** with cream cheese and pesto are also delicious, though I’d recommend the latter on a bagel.

The doughnuts are, as you might expect, fantastic. However, at $4 each, they're a bit of a splurge for me.

The **mocha latte** and **nitro cold brew** are both excellent and provide a great morning boost.

The service is top-notch. The woman at the doughnut window (unfortunately, I didn’t catch her name) is incredibly friendly and welcoming, making every customer feel valued.

I highly recommend Good Company Doughnuts & Cafe for a delicious and enjoyable meal.

Parking: It is located behind a series of restaurants and stores off the main road. Parking on a weekend evening was tricky. Be prepared to circle around a few times, double park and risk it, or (best option) bring a friend who can run in while you wait.“

“I've lived off of Richmond Hwy my whole 46yrs and have only had good Chinese food from 2 establishments in the area until now! My friend tagged me in her pic and I had to try it on my own. Well she didn't tell a lie! The shrimp fried rice was the BEST EVER!! I couldn't stop thinking about it and went back 3days later..same order but add shrimp egg foo young! Amazing!!! You have to try them!!!“

“I ordered for delivery from their website and was pleasantly surprised. The driver was their own staff and not a third party so that’s a plus. The driver was nice. It took about an hour for delivery which the website did give me a fair warning. The food was hot and fresh. The eggplant with garlic sauce was my favorite. The chicken cashew was good too. The fried rice and lomein were tasty. Nothing was too salty which was good since some places make everything overly salty. Overall, good food and good portions.“

“Can’t get enough of their steamed chicken dumplings! Look at the consistency! These were taking on different days and times over the last couple of months. The cucumber salad is great too! Highly recommend, especially if you’re looking for a more laid back environment“

“Every time I order from here whether it’s pepper steak, lo mein,shrimp fry rice or a steak and cheese Ming has made sure that my dining experience for takeout is amazing. Thank God this local restaurant is here to service us for our takeout needs. Highly recommend.“

“Best carry out. Best prices in area. Always our go to. Hits the spot. Hard to find good Chinese places around here, but I highly recommend this place. I’ve tried every Chinese place in town, Goodys is the best. Prices are great, and you get a lot. It’s fantastic.“

“Really enjoyed the shrimp & eggplant hotpot, and the garlic chicken, which came with snowpeas and mushrooms. Paired with a pot of jasmine tea and sesame balls for dessert. This restaurant is definitely a hidden gem - so glad a friend recommended it.

Vegetarian options: Some really nice vegetarian options“

“I am Chinese. I have eaten a lot of Chinese food in my life. This is excellent Chinese food and certainly the best I’ve had in DC proper thus far. The Kung pao chicken and house special soup in particular are spot on. No notes. Just order it“

“The place is a bit of a dump and the lobby could be cleaned (shady neighborhood, not surprised), but the food was great, huge portions and very tasty, and the staff member behind the glass wall was very kind and friendly. I'd go back here for sure.“

“I ordered 4 orders of chicken wings, rice wa good, and the French fries, but that Mumbo Sauce is terrible. I don’t know what to make of it. It’s like they threw so many ingredients together it’s throw off. Once I walked in and saw the cups of dark sauce that supposed to be Mumbo sauce, it was a let down. I had already ordered it my food so I went ahead and payed for it.“

“We've been eating here for over 20 years and it has always been good. It is recently under new management and the way some items are prepared has changed, but still very tasty -- just a new twist on an old favorite. The one thing the new management needs is someone who knows their way around a bar. The people there this week had a very limited range of knowledge about drinks (gin on the rocks got a blank look), but once you explained they happily made a very acceptable drink.“
