50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Potomac

“This is an underrated restaurant, and I'm surprised it's not always packed! The seafood is incredibly fresh, with tender and succulent texture, and both the cooking methods and seasoning are spot on. Every dish is delicious, highly recommended!“

“We really enjoyed our dine-in meal of: Thai green curry with shrimp, Szechuan green beans, Triple delight and pan fried noodles with shrimp. Everything was delicious! The new decor is lovely and the staff are very welcoming. Looking forward to trying the home-made dumplings next time.“

“The fish soup was flavorful, and the portion size was generous. I also liked that you can do a half-and-half soup with both fish and beef if you want to try both.

There are plenty of side dishes to choose from, and the cucumber was refreshing. The sticky rice cake and the spicy sour noodles were just okay and didn't stand out compared to the soup.

The seating area is fairly small, so it's not the best choice for larger groups, though we had no trouble walking in without a reservation. The staff were friendly and efficient, making the whole experience smooth. I'd definitely come back for the fish soup.“

“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“

“Food is great, easily one of the best dumplings I've tried in my life. Everything is flavorful and really good. I like it so much that I drive there over 40 mins to eat with friends from time to time. The first few visits I had some issues with the service but it seems to be improving.“

“Whenever I’m in the mood for a cozy movie night at home without the hassle of cooking, this place is strictly in my top three options. Honestly, I must have ordered from here well over twenty times by now ;p
​Our go-to combination always includes the Chow Fun, either the Mei Fun or Singapore Noodles, and a classic Fried Rice, alongside one specialty dish and today, we opted for the Green Bean Chicken. Everything arrived piping hot, freshly made, and perfectly seasoned. The team is always so wonderfully warm and welcoming whenever my husband step in for pick-up. If you’re looking for high-quality, comforting Chinese takeout, Chan's Kitchen is an absolute must :)“

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

“Very happy with the food and service here. My appetizer and meal were prepared perfectly and the bartender was polite. There was lots of options on this menu so I'm sure everyone can find something they like. Their sushi is also really good.“

“Lots of options and everything was delicious! The seating felt a little compact, but the food was amazing! There are a lot of contrasting flavors in all the dishes. Very authentic flavors and quite spicy. The chicken all came out flavorful, and the beef was very soft. The dumplings were also very delicious and juicy!

Definitely recommend this place for any families in the area who would love a hot meal with tea!! 😋🍚“

“Outdoor picnics delight As good as usual“

“Food was excellent! We went on a Friday night and it wasn't very busy, but with a holiday weekend people may be out of town
Dishes were large, hot, and fresh. Only thing I wish was different was that there was an iPad for ordering. However, servers stopped by multiple times to check in.“

“As we're lucky to have so many authentic and diverse restaurants in Northern Virginia, we decided to give Chef Tan a try.

I'd say it's a solid choice if you're nearby or looking for authentic Chinese food in Vienna. While it's not the best Chinese food I've ever had, every dish we ordered was good and the overall meal was enjoyable.

That said, with so many great Chinese restaurants closer to where I live, I probably wouldn't drive all the way to Vienna to have Chef Tan unless I happened to be in the area and is craving Chinese food.“

“Today was my first day visiting Wonder North Bethesda and the experience did not disappoint! Jayla patiently walked me through the process of ordering on the kiosk and she explained every detail regarding the different food options. She was kind, professional and transparent. I’m looking foto enjoying this new gem in my neighborhood!“

“Best bao in the DMV, hands down! Congrats on the new location. Nice space and good location. Lean into the front of house - you guys are rockstars!“

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

“The food is truly delicious and the portions are quite generous. Their vegetable spring rolls are the freshest and most delicious. Cucumber and garlic salad is definitely the best. Vegetable lo mein is super delicious. Their szechuan chicken and red peppers is very spicy but delicious. Beef sechuan very delicious. The service is professional, fast, and friendly. Emma was our hostess, she is extremely good, courteous, professional, and sweet. The place is nice, clean, but not fancy. .Most of the customers are Asians, proof it is very good. Definitely highly recommend, and definitely will go back again and again“

“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 at Peter Chang’s is incredibly flavorful and delicious. I ordered the Bamboo Fish and fried pork dumplings, and both were truly excellent. The restaurant had many Chinese diners when I visited, which made the food feel even more authentic and trusted. I can’t wait to go back and try more dishes.“

“The food was excellent and the service is consistently outstanding. I recently had a delivery, and the driver, Buenaventura, truly went above and beyond. I accidentally over-tipped, and he actually returned to my home to let me know and make it right. That level of honesty and professionalism is rare and very much appreciated. Highly recommend!“

“We know about this restaurant for many years but never went there because I usually don’t eat only vegetables, however seeing that the restaurant still operates after so many years I think it must be ok. We went on a Saturday evening for the first time and was surprised to see many people there, the service was quick and the food was very good. I recommend it.“

“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.“

“Exceptional carry out Chinese food. Food is good and fresh. Highlight dishes for me are the general chicken and crispy beef here. Fried price is also good but the beef and chicken specialty is definitely the stand out. Staff is great too. Mostly a carry out location.“

“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. ^^“

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

“Delicious food, the tea was even better. Atmosphere beautiful and the staff very friendly. I will be back!“

“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've been eating here with my family for over 5 years, and it's probably THE Chinese restaurant to eat at around here. The food makes me feel blessed to be able to live on Earth and I always stuff myself full afterward. It can be a bit lively during popular eating times (like when there's at least 30 people in chairs snorkling down food), but it's nothing much of a disturbance; a bit quieter during less busy times. If you're curious to check it out, I'd recommend any dish with flounder (flounder + greens, hai sian guo ba, etc.), green beans (gan bian si zi duo), and maybe a couple scallion pancakes for people who prefer more bread-y foods. I've never had any issue with the servers either. Takeout and dine-in + taking home leftovers are available here.“

“There is always a place in our hearts for the easy asian takeout restaurant, and this has taken the role from the 3 others we kept drifting between. Considerably above the average (although the dumplings are soundly beaten out by another of our options), this has become our regular stop when we have a hankering for this variety of cuisine.“

“I had an incredible experience dining at Gong Fu 12 yesterday, and I have to say it has quickly become my favorite restaurant in the DMV area. They create a wonderful blend of flavors from both Northern and Southern Chinese cuisines, resulting in a diverse menu full of exciting dishes. The quality of the food is exceptional, and I was pleasantly surprised by the reasonable prices for such delicious meals. It's a place where you can truly indulge in a culinary adventure! You will appreciate me for introducing you to this excellent restaurant.“

“I was pleasantly surprised with the quality and authenticity of some of the classic dimsum dishes such as the shrimp dumpling and charngfun. We ordered about 25 small plates between 3 people (including desert) and we were stuffed! Some items tasted a bit too experimental and did not satisfy the classic Cantonese flavor profile that I’m used to. Some were really good! I grew up eating authentic Cantonese dim sum in Los Angeles and have tried amazing eating dim sum in Hong Kong and Guangzhou. In the DMV area, we have limited dim sum options - so this place will do when I crave dim sum! The service and atmosphere were really nice. Total rating is 4.5 stars.“

“Lived in Bethesda for 50 years, now in Bend, OR--where good Chinese food is non-existent. On numerous visits back home, I've patronized Foong Lin with high school buddies--and it always delivers the goods. Last night, we all had hot and sour soup, egg rolls, crispy beef, combination Kung Pao, combination lo mein...and everything was off the charts!“

“Was passing through my old haunts in Vienna. Heard good things about Chili Wok, so we gave it a try.
Sesame noodles -- great! (but next time I would have them add chicken.)
Green beans with pork - great.
Both dishes were without spice because we could add our own spice with condiments on the table.“

“If you’re looking for authentic Hong Kong-style Chinese cuisine with unique flavors and a wide variety of dishes that you won’t find at many other restaurants, this is the place to visit. The food is reasonably priced, making it an excellent choice for shoppers, neighbors, and members of the surrounding community to enjoy lunch or dinner on a regular basis.“

“Andre was a great server! He was super friendly, attentive, and made sure I had everything I needed. He made my experience really enjoyable and provided excellent service. I’ll definitely be back and would love to have him as my server again!“

“This charming little restaurant serves authentic Yunnan rice noodles. I opted for the Kimchi Beef Rice Noodle Soup, which arrived piping hot. I carefully added all the ingredients and sides to the sizzling soup. I also had fried oysters that were crispy and tender. The portion was generous, and the price was reasonable. The service was warm and efficient. The soup was incredibly tasty and delicious! I can’t think of anything better noodle soup at such an affordable price. It’s a fantastic bargain!“

“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 really enjoy eating at Yu Noodle Cafe. They have the best noodle soup in Rockville. The soup is hot, tasty, and full of flavor, and the noodles are always fresh. The staff are very kind, generous, and friendly. They always make me feel welcome. The food is great, the service is great, and I will definitely come back again. Highly recommend!“

“The dishes are even cleaner tasting and less salty than before, and we love the new chicken wonton soup. The chefs have creatively used spices and ground halal meat to recreate pork dishes. Great for those who eat halal but also for those who don't want to feel bloated after a Chinese meal. We loved the chicken broccoli and moo shoo and will be ordering again for this healthier take on American Chinese food.“

“Highly recommend Bostan Uyghur! We started out by ordering the Eggplant Salad as an appetizer. It came out nice and warm fresh from the stove! With its spices and garlicky flavor, it really hit the mark! We then placed orders for the Chicken Kabab and the Dry Fried Soman noodles with beef. Both were spicely complex and absolutely delicious! Have to make another visit soon!“

“Great food and it's 100% Zabiha Halal .The customer service was excellent. Cristina, the Manager, was very welcoming and even gave us our drinks for free. Highly recommend this place for both the food and the amazing hospitality. Tysons , va“

“Wonder North Bethesda is new, but they’re already doing such a great job! We ordered from both Pop Salad and Streetbird, and everything was really good. The salads were fresh, filling, and made exactly how we ordered them, and the chicken tenders and mac & greens from Streetbird were sooo good.

I also love that everyone can order from different restaurants but still pick everything up together in one place. The whole process was quick and easy, our food was ready on time, and the staff was friendly. Definitely a great new addition to the area—we’ll absolutely be back!“

“Grand Hunan is a local gem located in the Westover community. I tried a variety of their foods and have always been consistently satisfying. The owner is this local small business is customer friendly and super generous in their portion and always trying to please every order in a personal way. They always tried to accommodate any dietary restriction in addition to their healthy items in their menu. They even catering of any size with generous portion and reasonable price. Highly recommend everyone to give it a try as you won't regret it!“

“This is a small restaurant with pleasant seating and quiet atmosphere. I phoned in a take out order that was taken cheerfully and politely with a 10 minute estimate and ready on time. I ordered double cooked pork along with two egg rolls. The egg rolls were crispy, nice and hot. One was a little salty but not overly much. The main dish was flavorful, the pork along with cabbage, peppers and mushrooms. The sauce was flavorful and the right amount to go with the included white rice. This would be a pleasant spot for an informal dinner for two.“

“Cool concept it’s like +6 kitchens in 1. They offer a lot of different promos on social media. From Alana pizza, I ordered the burrata and the bacon pesto pizza. The burrata was really fresh and I enjoyed the pesto pizza. From Di Fara pizza, I ordered the pepperoni, sausage and meatball pizza. Not sure if it was dough or the pizza was undercooked, but I wish there was more of a crisp to the crust. I found myself chewing longer than expected.

Location was really clean and ordering via the app was easy. There’s plenty of street parking around the shopping center. Prices are high for the area. I would definitely be back to try some of the other restaurants.“

“Today was my first day visiting Wonder North Bethesda and the experience did not disappoint! Jayla patiently walked me through the process of ordering on the kiosk and she explained every detail regarding the different food options. She was kind, professional and transparent. I’m looking foto enjoying this new gem in my neighborhood!“

“Straight up the best Chinese food I've ever had. Flavors are delicate and complex, textures are perfect, I am going to be thinking about their house made ponzu (?) spring roll sauce for months. I'm not a DC native but I will be coming back for this restaurant. Also- lots of vegetarian options.“

“This restaurant had perfect skewers, perfect hot pot, perfect sauce bar, perfect everything. I don’t know how else to describe this amazing place. Clean, yummy foods, comfortable seats, everything positive about this. People, you need to come here just to experience the specialty!“

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

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

“I am writing to express my satisfaction with my recent visit last week. Our waiter, Andrew, was welcoming and significantly contributed to our experience. His attentiveness and his kind invitation for our group to use the karaoke room, elevated our visit to a memorable occasion. The food was exceptional, and I believe the pricing is reasonable given the quality. I will certainly be returning and recommending this establishment to others. Andrew, your service was truly outstanding.“
