18 Best Chinese Restaurants near Arden

“Absolutely love king’s kitchen. The ONLY downfall is not being able to have it delivered through any of the food service apps. Large portions and reasonably priced. As a family of 7, this is one of our go-to’s for Chinese. Don’t let the small store front take away from the amazing food. Call your order in and it’ll be ready when you get there.“

“This is a really good place to eat so if your out this way you need to stop in,“

“We come all the time because we always get the BEST service. It's always a wonderful experience. The staff is ALWAYS so friendly, inviting and informative. We recently had Holly and Tina as our servers and they were absolutely fantastic! Would recommend!“

“Found this little gem tucked in a shopping center on Payton Ave in Asheville and absolutely loved the food! The staff were friendly and welcoming and the food was delicious! Only down side they aren’t open on Sunday so I can’t get the food 7 days a week.“

“The best Asian buffet experience I’ve had since I moved to Upstate SC 12 years ago!!! Good food and amazing service!!!“

“Tried 4 different items and they were all pretty great. Found this place walking around in Asheville and there were so many options. Food was ready in literally 10 minutes after ordering. Confused by some of the negative reviews on here, will absolutely be going back. Updated from previous review on 2025-08-22“

“Panda Express at Asheville Mall in Asheville is a great place to go for delicious and fresh food that is well prepared. I have been happy with all of the orders that I have made from here. The staff here is very friendly and efficient at getting everything together. Good experience every time here.“

“I was craving some Chinese veggie soup and some fried rice, and I also got a shrimp roll and a veggie roll.
My meal was excellent. The soup was even better than I hoped for. My fried rice was delicious and even better then I anticipated. My shrimp roll was divine, and the entire experience was superb.
They had my order ready so fast that I thought they were saying someone else was ready. My meal was fresh and hot, and they exceeded my expectations and at a very fair price. I will definitely be eating here again.“

“I need to preface my review a bit:

I lived in Fairview 7 years ago and this was my go to for Chinese at that time.
Since I’ve now returned, I was happy to find them still open and decided to give them a try
I got the teriyaki shrimp combo plate. It had great flavor, plentiful portions and the shrimp were not salad shrimp like I feared they would be. Big, plump, tasty shrimp. Lots of veggies as well. More than ample rice. The egg roll
That came with it was so good I wish I’d gotten two.
My only complaint is the lack of customer service. They just are not friendly. Perhaps a language barrier, but even a smile goes a long way.“

“This is one of the quickest places to get food, and it (usually) tastes great. 2 orders of Orange Chicken, Black Pepper Steak and Fried Rice is my go to. My boss tends to get 2 orders of Honey Walnut Shrimp, Black Pepper Steak or Mushroom Chicken, and noodles. Only reason I put usually in brackets is because today they scorched my fried rice. One of the employees made me an entire new plate to compensate, though. Other than a common mistake that was handled well today, I'll keep coming back when it's time for lunch!
Edit: if you order the Honey Walnut Shrimp, do as my boss does and request extra walnuts. I also put my boss's usual order here, too. Don't forget that you can do half and half!!

Kid-friendliness: They have a kids menu.

Wheelchair accessibility: The restrooms only accommodate one person, but are big enough to also accommodate wheelchairs. Some of the chairs can be moved if you have to open up an aisle.“

“For some reason maybe the time of day not sure but on this visit we were disappointed lots of the food was dried out. The eggdrop soup appeared watered down, and lots of choices were empty and not filled until after we had finished .the fried stuff all tasted like seafood and I don't do seafood Chinese only chicken and beef but usually it's very good and I will give it another try below I will tag my favorites from other visits“
