33 Best Chinese Restaurants near Marriottsville

“**Edit 2026: still the best in the area. House wonton soup. Try it.**

Hidden gem! Food is always hot and fresh, and the staff is prompt and friendly. I've only ever dined in, so I can't comment on carryout. I usually get the beef & broccoli lunch plate. Shrimp toast is delicious; you can tell it's made fresh because it's not gross and soggy like other places that freeze it. In cold weather there's no better meal than their house special wonton soup. Just a great place. Modestly decorated; very clean.“

“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 !“

“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!!!“

“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!“

“We drive 20 minutes each way for their food. It’s worth it! Superb quality and flavor. THE NICEST PEOPLE own this place!! So accommodating and friendly! The pork fried rice, honey sesame chicken, orange chicken, walnut chicken and shrimp egg foo young are some of our favorites. Everything is made with care and to order. There is no other place that can compare!“

“My favorite carry out restaurant when I’m in the area. Everything on the menu is delicious 😋. Everyone there is so friendly.“

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

“The best food you will find in the area! We live in Pennsylvania and drive the 50 minutes to have dinner here. The owners are so friendly, food is always fresh, and the restaurant is always clean. From the bathrooms being immaculate, to the tables, to the plates. We have never had an issue here. If you haven’t tried this place you are missing out.“

“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.“

“I’ve been coming here for years and the food is always spectacular. I always get the kon pow shrimp and it HITS every single time. They have a huge menu ranging from your regular Chinese takeout to traditional Cantonese dishes. Huge portions for affordable prices“

“Very good sushi & spring rolls 🌞“

“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 ❤️“

“Nice area and my husband order the duck plate and ate at the restaurant. One week later we order duck plate again online. He love this service.“

“outstanding food and service 🙂“

“10/10 food , fast and friendly service, my absolute FAVORITE restaurant! ❤️“

“our server Michael at Gaithersburg MD has made our day and got say he turned our entire day around less not forget the food was amazing as well“

“First-time customer- I got steamed pork dumplings and hot crispy chicken. The dumplings and sauce were so delicious that I ate all of them before eating my entree (which was good also!) The fortune cookie was still warm-- they must make it themselves! Comparing to other Chinese restaurants, the prices were great.“

“Very pleasantly surprised! It was late and they were open for carryout, so figured I'd take a chance. Didn't expect much from a small, tucked away chinese, but wow! Food was fresh, tasty and perfectly cooked. Ordered two noodle dishes, veggie spring rolls and steamed dumplings. Even my picky mother was happy. Prices incredibly fair, particularly in the current economy. Will surely return.“

“Great food awesome atmosphere“

“New management with new recipes for some dishes but all very delicious. Lunch sized dishes are huge and could easily feed 3 hungry people. Mu Hoo pork and pork fried rice had plentiful pork and were fresh as could be. Egg rolls were hot without being greasy. Will be back.
Just tried the Kung pao chicken and it is the best version I have had yet.“

“I ordered house lomein but they got the order wrong and made pork.lomein. I was hungry so I just took it. It was a 6.5 out of 10. There is spice, maybe clove, that overwhelms the pork. The dumplings were good. The eggs rolls were mid and greasy. I won't refuse to go back but I'm not planning to return anytime soon.“

“Good bourbon chicken has been impossible to come by recently with the extinction of Bourbon street in the malls. I called at least 15 spots before finding Lucky Bamboo House who i was delighted to hear actually had spicy bourbon chicken. The taste was amazing and on par if not better than what i was hoping for with similarities to mall bourbon chicken that i was trying to replicate . The lo mein noodles were cooked perfectly and were full of flavor in each bite . Price was a bit high but the portion made it worth it. Will be back again and again . Highly recommend“

“I've been coming to this place for a few months now, and it's quickly become one of my go-to spots for quick, flavorful Chinese food. The menu is full of classics — General Tso’s Chicken, Beef & Broccoli, Lo Mein, Fried Rice — and they do most of them really well.“

“This is the best general tso chicken in town. Breading is always crispy and the sauce is the best part. Very nice owners, always greet you with a smile and a nice thanks goodbye. Great stuff and highly recommend because the pricing is extremely reasonable.“

“Food is delicious and definitely worth the drive. They also offer gluten free dishes. I will definitely be back. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“
