16 Best Chinese Restaurants near Monrovia

“When my family moved to this area over 15 years ago, this place was recommended to us. Still, after all this time, this is the only Chinese place in the area that I will order from, after sampling many in the area (Frederick/MoCo). They have the best hot and sour soup in the area. Actually flavorful. The cream cheese wontons are different, not as crispy as you would expect, but the flavor is great. veggies are always fresh and crunchy, never overcooked. Both the more traditional dishes and the Americanized dishes have great flavors. Food is always ready fast.“

“I just finished reading VERA WONG'S UNSOLICITED ADVICE FOR MURDERERS, and all the food Vera makes had me Googling the best place for Chinese Buns, since I've never had any before and the food in the book made me so hungry! There aren't any places near me, so we drove 40 minutes out to Frederick to eat at THE UGLY DUMPLING, and it did not disappoint! The food was AMAZING! I got the UD Bun sampler to try all the different buns Vera makes in the novel, and my kids wanted the Chicken Stir Fry Noodles. My husband ordered Orange Chicken and Fried Rice with Chicken, and we also ordered some Spring Rolls. When I tell you it was more food than I expected, I mean our table was overflowing! I tried the Taro, Mushroom, BBQ, Custard, and Scallion Buns, and Scallion and Custard were my favorite--my 2 year old loved them, too! So soft, like a pillow, and delicious! We brought home enough food to eat again tomorrow, and I'm so excited for it! This was an amazing dining experience, and we're already planning our next excursion back! Highly recommend!“

“Will definitely come back. Always looking for a GOOD FRIED OLD FASHIONED MARYLAND CRABCAKE and you didn't disappoint! Bread pudding was killer. 2 thumbs up!“

“The prices are great here, especially at lunch. The pepper steak was prepared quickly and came out piping hot. There was no extra charge to get fried rice instead of white. I like that there's an option for soup or soda with the lunch combo, but I went with the egg roll.“

“food wash fresh and good !!“

“Our family of 7 stopped there on our way home from Abingdon, MD. They were so sweet! They set up a table for us, brought us everything and the food was absolutely DELICIOUS. I had barbecue boneless ribs and they’re the best I’ve ever had. They helped us throughout our meal. Highly recommend.“

“Great, GREAT DELICIOUS Food Here. GREAT Professional Staff. GREAT Prices. Very Clean Restaurant. Take out only at this time. Well worth the Drive. I would Highly Recommend this Restaurant to EVERYONE......“

“Great Wall is one of my go-to spots for Chinese food! The food is always fresh, flavorful, and the portions are generous. It's a little pricey, but the quality and taste make it worth it. The staff is friendly, and the service is always quick. I'll definitely keep coming back!“

“The staff here is extremely polite and helpful. I was greeted by Labrell who is extremely nice and helpful. He helped me and another couple get set up with the wonder app and gave recommendations on which foods to try. I highly recommend the wonder Reston location and if you get a chance to meet Labrell he will put a smile on your face and brighten your day!!“

“I went with my family of 5 for dinner and we were very impressed with the service and food. The food was delicious and top quality, the service was prompt and the presentation very nice. I travel from Middletown to go there because the food is consistently great!“

“I loved this food! I'm surprised some say bland!? I loved the egg foo young! Will definitely be back!“

“Good food and great staff.“

“A lovely little place you can stop by and get fresh food made fast. I got the teriyaki chicken, white rice, and veggies for a healthy lunch! You can get fried rice or noodles as other sides, but I found my combo to be a pretty healthy choice.

You order, and then they cook it right then and it's ready in a few minutes . Hot off the griddle, fresh, and super friendly hard working folks behind the counter.

Thank you for offering tasty, affordable, and healthy (if you so choose!) options in the mall for shoppers on the go. :-)“

“The food was awesome and the waitress was very friendly and helpful would recommend if you are interested in getting great food and friendly service. I don’t understand some of the reviews saying about being pressured for a higher tip and rudeness of staff did not experience anything like that. But still would recommend to anyone that wants great food and friendly service at a decent price. Have a blessed day“

“This is my favorite Chinese place in the area. Food is always super good, and I always look forward to when we get it for take out. I have also eaten in the actual restaurant a few times, and it has always been a nice meal. I personally highly recommend the steamed dumplings and the combo lo mein, this place has the best of the best!!“

“I had an absolutely fantastic dining experience at Asian Bistro! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly and seated promptly. The ambiance is cozy yet modern, with tasteful decor that creates a relaxing and welcoming atmosphere. It’s a perfect spot whether you’re out for a casual dinner or celebrating something special.

The service was impeccable—our server was knowledgeable, attentive, and made thoughtful recommendations without being overbearing. Every dish we ordered was a hit. We started with the crispy spring rolls and the spicy tuna tartare—both fresh and beautifully presented. For entrees, the General Tso’s Chicken was perfectly crisp with a rich, tangy sauce, and the Pad Thai had just the right balance of sweet, savory, and spice.

Overall, Asian Bistro exceeded our expectations in every way. Delicious food, excellent sushi, attentive service, and a charming setting—what more could you ask for? This place has definitely earned a spot on our regular rotation. Highly recommend!“
