26 Best Chinese Restaurants in Grand Rapids

“Greeted by the manager, Ben, who is just lovely. Was seated while I waited for my friend. When she arrived, we got our beverages and were given plenty of time to visit and catch up without pressure until we were ready. She had her favorite, the Orange Chicken, and I had the new Korean Chicken and both were excellent. Julia's service was exemplary making our entire experience perfect.“

“We stopped for an early dinner while in the area. what an amazing place. the food was excellent and the staff were super friendly and helpful. I can't wait to go back“

“Thank you for a great dinner!“

“Tasty, legit and authentic Asian cuisine. As a food enjoyer and having travelled to Asia for work previously, this place is as close as I’ve found in west Michigan to the great, complex flavors of Hong Kong, Shanghai, Taiwan, etc. Get in here and give it a try. Highly recommend the sesame chicken.“

“Always Fantastic“

“This is a really good Chinese restaurant! The staff was kind and courteous, preparing food in a very timely manner. I've been looking for a new Chinese food place to frequent and I think I may have found it in this cute little place! Highly highly recommend!“

“Always get shrimp fried rice for mom daughter dates.I think they may have changed owners.The huge shrimp are still huge but have been mushy and overcooked the past few times.Still good but miss the old shrimp.Love this place though great service,clean and friendly for both dine in or take out.“

“Always fresh vegetables and dinner is enough for two! The best!“

“Been coming here since I was 6. Absolutely adore the owner. He's very attentive and kind to his customers. Has taken the time to learn Spanish. The food is amazing as always. Hablan español. Los conozco desde los 6 años. La comida, como siempre super!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“thoughtfully made, reminds me of old school Chinese takeout. Generous with the helpings and toppings. Lunch portion is great. fried rice is great with Mongolian bf. Im an egg drop soup girly, this only place that makes really good sweet n sour soup. the service is always friendly and kind. The bakery is really cute, the buns are tasty and very instagram worthy“

“Exceptional service and courtesy! The meal I ordered contained mushrooms, staff was kind enough to make the order without them for me and were so kind and understanding about it. The Food was INCREDIBLE, very fresh ingredients and hot.Establishment was clean, staff was swift. Would highly recommended!“

“First Wok gives us reliably great food every time. We love their food offerings and it is always delicious. Very dependable. Open on major holidays in case home cooking plans don’t work out! Also, the staff is very friendly :) We love First Wok👌🏻“

“They are my # 1 go to place for Chinese food, we have been going to this restaurant for about 18 years now. They give u so much food when you order whatever my favorites are the orange chicken combination, or beef or pork lomein, sweet and sour chicken combination, beef and broccoli comb, Mongolian beef combo, these are some of our favorites but try whatever and I promise you will not be disappointed. Yes the prices have increased because of the inflation of everything going up of course but they didn't go up that much like 2-3 bucks more. But for all the food you get it's definitely worth it. Hell I even have food left over for the next day. Definitely give them a try you won't be disappointed. The family that owns the place are really super sweet, very good folks.“

“Great people very friendly and an awesome staple for the beside ! And I have read a couple of comments this place IS NOT dirty. If anything they are busy. This can be determined by each person when they visit because when you walk in you can clearly see the kitchen! It’s wide open and you can see all the way to the back it is always clean swept. Who can say that about other restaurants! They are very very friendly, they speak broken English so if you call that rude then you don’t go there you don’t belong in a Resturant if you’re not patient ! Go somewhere else and leave them alone ! I have been a loyal customer for years and never have I been treated so well and kind!“

“Super friendly staff! They were quick and on top of refills and dietary restrictions.“

“I decided to order food here because I saw that their lunch menu was very affordable and I’m a broke college student working downtown for the summer. I got the beef and broccoli order with the side of chicken fried rice- I just took my first bite and it’s wonderful! The flavor is awesome in the rice, beef and vegetables and my order came with an AWESOME amount of food as well! It was ready for me to pick up only 15 minutes after I called to order.

Look at the picture I’ve provided, I got all of this for a little less than $12! I will absolutely be coming again and getting my lunches from the Hong Kong Express! :)“

“Grand Lakes Chinese, thank you so much. I love the beef lo mein. Im a teacher and whenever I have a bad day, I get Chinese food. I used to go to other places in GR and they were fine, but Grand Lakes Chinese takes the cake. I know the moment I take a bite of the beef lo mein my day will get 100% better. I love Grand Lakes and I am so glad I found this place. Grand lakes, thank you so much! You make every bad day better!!!“

“They are a little bit expensive I will say but you do get a lot of food for the price you pay, also the food is enough for two people and even have some left overs. First time trying them out and definitely was not disappointed at all. Very friendly, customer service was great and the lady who took our order was really sweet. Didn't take long at all for us to get our food, there are fast and prompt. Everything we ordered was all correct didn't have any issues. We will definitely be back again to try out some other menu items..Thanks again“

“I’ve only ever gotten take out from here, but, it’s the best vegan Thai food/food category adjacent take out I have had in Michigan. So many people praise Bangkok Thai downtown GR but they never fully season their vegan dishes and this place actually does, they don’t skimp of flavor and texture even with the plant based substitutes. I 10/10 recommend.“

“Went for the first time tonight to try a "new to us" spot. Staff was friendly and they had plenty of menu options to choose from.We really enjoyed what we had and will definitely be back to try more menu items.There are a few tables to sit and eat at, but most people that came in were for to go orders or picked up from ordering ahead.It was nice to see that there were quite a few of regulars. That says a lot for a business ?“

“Their hot and sour soup is my go-to cure whenever I am sick. So good!“

“Tai fried rice (chicken) has excellent flavor. Pineapple is a nice touch in the rice. Heat was just right and I'm a lightweight for spiciness. Plenty of food for a good price. Even though the place was fairly full, the atmosphere was calm and not too loud. We had a both and it felt private even though it wasn't. Service is precise and swift.“

“Stopped here for lunch with my husband and we absolutely loved it! I had sesame chicken and he had lo mein with chicken. We both enjoyed egg drop soup and rangoons as an appetizer. The food was fresh and portion sizes were big enough to share. The service was friendly and quick and we'll definitely go back!“

“So this review is just for take out, I've never eaten in. I've been satisfied with everything I've ordered. Chinese food is hard to review, because everyone has their preference. But I've ordered Chinese food from restaurants that cost twice as much, and tasted the same or worse. I was bummed that China Garden didn't have teriyaki chicken. But their BBQ chicken (I just like saying "chicken on a stick") is so crispy in a good way, that I want all my "chicken on a stick" to be like theirs! Also, they were open in a massive, everyone shut down everything, snow storm. So, I'll drive out of my way to go here.“

“I like the food. My family and I almost always get Dim Sum . The 18% forced gratuity is a bit frustrating but I don't know anywhere else I can get Dim Sum so I deal with the frustration. The service has always been good enough so based on some other reviews perhaps they take time warming up to familiar faces .“
