20 Best Chinese Restaurants near Chapel Hill

“delicious food, peaceful invironment“

“I LOVE THIS PLACE!!! If you’re sick or just having a bad day, there is genuinely no better pick-me-up in chapel hill. I’ve ordered from here 3 times so far & they’ve never disappointed. My favorite is the pork belly noodle soup, but I’ve also gotten the braised beef noodle soup as well as the beef broth with celery & scallion (excellent for a sore throat!). The braised beef noodle soup was a bit too spicy for me, but our server never stopped filling up my water so it wasn’t a problem lol. I’d recommend the pork belly noodle soup as a safe first choice if you’ve never been here ^^ it’s soo flavorful & always makes me feel better. It’s not spicy at all & has plenty of pork.

The restaurant itself is a little cramped & the seats are a bit uncomfortable, but service is quick. I’ve never waited longer than a minute to be seated or be brought my order after i came in :)“

“Hunam in Chapel Hill is one of those rare places that quietly becomes part of the fabric of a community. There’s a reason it’s been around for decades.

From the moment you walk in, there’s a sense that this place is cared for. Not curated for trendiness, not redesigned every few years to keep up, but cared for in a steady, genuine way. Nelson and his wife run Hunam with a kind of consistency and warmth that you can feel. It’s the kind of hospitality that doesn’t need to announce itself; it just shows up in how you’re greeted, how your food is prepared, and how the space is maintained.

The back party room is a hidden gem. The walls are lined with beautiful wallpaper he imported from China. Sitting around the large round tables with a lazy Susan in the center feels almost ceremonial, like you’re meant to slow down, share, and stay awhile. It’s not just a place to eat, it’s a place to gather.

The food is simple, satisfying, and reliably good. The kind of dishes you crave after a long day, flavorful, comforting, and generously portioned. Even better, it’s still affordable, which feels increasingly rare.

Hunam hasn’t lasted this long by chasing trends. It’s lasted because it’s rooted in something much more enduring: family, care, and a genuine connection to the people it serves. Places like this don’t just stay open, they become beloved.“

“Pleasantly surprised!!!! We have not gotten takeaway from Panda Garden for quite a while now because it seemed that it was getting more and more expensive while the quality was getting worse. But last night we decided to give it another try, and we were impressed. The menu has expanded, the online ordering process is easier, the prices are appropriate, and the food was great! NY style Chinese food that's super nice for a movie night on a cold evening. We will put Panda Garden back in our rotation for takeout nights!“

“10/10 recommend. That’s all I gotta say.“

“Super yummy food - highly recommend the rangoons!“

“Celebrated Chinese New Year with friends on Sunday at Lunch time. We were the only table but they were very busy with takeout orders. We ordered Happy Family, General Taos Chicken. Seafood Delight, Chicken wings, steamed Broccoli, noodles and pork dish and shared. All of the dishes were very good and the waitress took time to take photos for us.“

“We received the best service from Mariah this Sat. It was a party of 25 guests, she serviced use with 100% customer service. the food was great and we were leaving a funeral which was a bad day for all, we left feeling a littler lighter, due to the our server. She is a GEM.“

“Loved Peony Asian Restaurant! The steamed dumplings are delicious, the soups are rich and comforting, and there are so many great dishes to choose from. Definitely recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐P.S.Come to Dallas, TX!“

“We worked with Sister Liu's food truck for our wedding reception and they did a fabulous job! No lines, food was fast and hot and so delicious, and they were a pleasure to work with -- made it easy and seamless for us! Could not recommend more.“

“run of the mill Chinese joint. Fast and get my orders right, so thumbs up“

“fast affordable delicious. I've been a customer for over 10 years! love this restaurant“

“I’ve been in the neighborhood since 2021 and feel fairly qualified to call myself a local. In my experience, Hong Kong Chinese Restaurant has offered the same caliber of excellent food service as they did the first time I ever ordered from them. The people on the phone/at the front register are always so warm and friendly. The food itself is terrific! Cozy, hot, and filling, each bite bursting with flavor, and ready in almost no time. Can’t beat those prices either.“

“The server is really friendly and the dishes are really authentic. Sichuan flavor chicken and fried noodles are really good.“

“This place is small and simple in design, but dont be fouled!!

Their food is great!!
The veggies are fresh!! They did look or taste canned

The meat is well cooked and the seamse chicken was crispy.

The sauce is FULL of flavor!!!!!! Great consistency!

The fried rice is actually fresh. Flavor is lighter, but there's so much good sauce, u can easily mix it with the rice.

Overall, I love it!! Thank you Banh's Cuisine for a wonderful lunch 🙏🏾🔥😋“

Waitress attentive, food hot and delicious. Wide variety of options Vegetarian. Available Parking is limited but street parking available. Kid friendly
Worth checking this place out.“

“I can always count on China Buffet to feed my family after a long day of work when I don’t want to cook. Customer service is great and it matches the yummy food! Will always be back- every 2 weeks 🤪 one of my fave dishes is the jalapeño chicken! Gotta try it!“

“Ate here several times 4-5 years ago, went back again today and it was as good as ever. Wide variety of items on the menu so I can always try something new and unusual if I want. Server was excellent at answering questions about the various dishes.“
