Chinese Restaurants near Englewood

“I’ve been here twice recently, and both experiences have been good. Different staff members helped me each time, and both were super friendly—whether I was calling in my order or picking it up. I ordered the plain lo mein and sesame chicken both times and was happy with what I got. The food was fresh, hot, and exactly what you’d expect from a classic Chinese takeout spot. Nothing fancy, just tasty comfort food and good service. I did come here a couple years ago and it seems to have improved since then to me.“

“I eat in this restaurant often! This is my favorite spot to pass a nice evening. I visit this place many times. The cooking is excellent, the workers are polite and the charge is fair. I enjoy meeting in this restaurant to have a good meal.“

“very authentic Chinese restaurant. like the decor. service is 👍“

“Chi Restaurant & Bar is incredible! We came in with a large party and they accommodated us perfectly, which meant we got to try almost everything on the menu. The food tasted totally authentic, yet somehow still fresh and fun. Seriously, it felt like every single dish we ordered topped the last one! The duck was absolutely fantastic, and the dim sum and veggies were just as amazing. Whatever you do, definitely don’t skip out on the cute desserts at the end. It's an awesome spot for a group dinner with top-tier food.“

“Was very good meat and the atmosphere nice .“

“Had a fantastic first experience at Corner Chinese!“

“Great experience, great food, great hospitality“

“A calm and pleasant spot for lunch.

I came during the afternoon and the place was quiet.
The staff was very friendly and even asked how the meal was at the end.
Note: It’s self-service.

Food: The hand-pulled noodles and broth were fresh and excellent.
The fried side dish was crispy and flavorful.
Drink: The iced black tea with mango was light and very refreshing.
Tip: As you can see in the video - the portions are very generous.
I recommend ordering a small size because I couldn’t finish it.

Seating: I sat by the window facing the street. It was nice to eat and watch Broadway at the same time.
There’s also an inner bar table closer to the kitchen.
The place is clean and the surrounding area feels calm and safe.

Price: Very affordable and filling.
This was my first time trying authentic Chinese food and I was pleasantly surprised.
Highly recommend and worth saving for a real local meal.“

“I was there at Jian Nan Syosset, Long Island. Everything went great!! But, those took the orders needed to be more educated to understand each dishes. We were a fairly larger group than standard party size. Some dished were small and some dim sum served with small quantities, like 3 or 4. Those who order for the large group, should give suggestion to order multiple orders for the same dish. So, each one in the group can have at least one.“

“Got to enjoy the exceptional tasting menu just two days after they opened. The inventiveness at work here is matched by the execution. While the cuisine is much different, the sheer delight of it reminded me of my first time years ago at Charlie Trotter's. We went back the next day just to sit at the bar after a show and enjoy the unusual, and unusually good, wine-based cocktails.

July 2026 update: We recently returned and once again enjoyed an exceptional meal via their tasting menu.“

“My God… Chongqing Lao Zao might be the best Chinese hot pot I’ve ever had. And if you’ve seen my other reviews, you know I’ve eaten at A LOT of hot pot places. 😂 This one seriously impressed me.

The entrance is actually pretty small and very easy to miss, but once you walk through that door… WOW. It feels like you just stepped into a Chinese palace. The decorations, the details, the atmosphere—everything is beautiful. Before we even started eating, I was already walking around looking at everything.

Then there’s the service. Next level. The servers were so attentive that they basically wouldn’t let us lift a finger. 😂 Plates cleared, broth checked, food taken care of—they were always there without making us feel rushed. That kind of service really changes the whole experience.

And of course, the hot pot itself was incredible. Rich, authentic flavors and exactly what I want when I’m craving real Chinese hot pot. Great food is one thing, but when you combine it with this atmosphere and this level of service, it becomes an experience.

I review a lot of hot pot restaurants and usually can find at least one thing I would change. This time, I really can’t.

Small door outside, palace inside. 👏🔥🍲 Easy 5 stars. One of my new favorite hot pot experiences, period.“

“Ottimo ristorante di Ramen (giapponese e non quello "tarocco" o fatto con quello istantaneo del supermercato) che offre anche una fantastica selezione di ravioli. Prezzi tutto sommato accettabili per la media della città e acqua gratuita. Posto piccolo, accogliente, staff cordiale e velocissimo. Porzioni corpose quindi ordinate con cautela o non riuscirete a finire tutto.“

“Ate there yesterday for the first time. What a find! The food is excellent, staff is wonderful, pricing is great. I loved how clean everything was. Enjoy!“

“Excellent foods from the appetizer to the main courses.“

“I great food and service. High quality land authentic.“

“Hands down probably the best Chinese food in the city. I could eat here everyday.“

“I highly recommend their famous pork spicy appetizer. It was our 4th times in this place. I would say their meat is high quality because you can tell from the flavor itself. This is our couples favorite Sichuan place. Tonight, we tried SeaBass Mala it was delicious but too spicy but we’ve finish it 😄😛😋“

“Really enjoyed this place! The restaurant is very clean, the food is delicious, and the prices are quite reasonable. The noodles are especially authentic and taste just like the real thing. Great quality for the price, and definitely a place I’d come back to!“

“I used Trip Advisor to get me here and everything reviewers had said was true. Authentic Sichuan food and, for a person like myself, dining solo, a great appetizer menu. I was happy to take the server’s recommendations and they were right. And for midtown Manhattan it was reasonably priced.

Delicious“

“Blue Blossom is excellent for a pre or post Broadway show dinner! We truly enjoyed our dining experience as the staff was very hospitable and the food was delicious! We started with the Signature Bao Platter, which is a sampler of 6 soup dumplings. I really liked them all. For our main, we ordered the Signature Salted Baked Chicken + Hot Stone Braised Rice, which are the perfect pairing! This is true comfort food, in the best way. It felt like a warm hug. The chicken was so flavorful and juicy. Make sure to top it with the ginger oil they provide. The hot stone rice was smoky with just a faint spicy heat. I loved mixing the chicken with the rice & topping it with the ginger oil. The only thing we did not enjoy was the Martini that we ordered.“

“Everything is good“

“Hands down probably the best Chinese food in the city. I could eat here everyday.“

“The fish was tender and flavorful, and the green pepper sauce had a nice kick without being overwhelming. The Mao Xue Wang was also tasty and had plenty of ingredients. Overall, a great spot if you’re craving Sichuan-style fish and spicy dishes. Would definitely come back!“

“We got the triple schewan rice and noodles mix and vegetable manchurian gravy, both were delicious! It satisfied our indo-chinese cravings!
The service was prompt and ambience is good!
The only minus is the quantity of dishes which is pretty less for the price we pay.“

“My girlfriend and I came here to celebrate a special occasion. They have a good happy hour and the service was fantastic. They are super friendly and attentive. The fried rice is awesome and the general tso’s chicken was delicious, with portions so big that we took home leftovers. If I could recommend one thing it would be the fried dumplings appetizer, best I’ve ever had in NYC. We will be back soon!“

“Outstanding.“

“We had such a great meal at Pig Heaven! The BBQ spare ribs were so tender, flavorful, and perfectly glazed. We also really enjoyed the soup dumplings, Peking duck, Sesame chicken, noodles, and Mapo tofu. Everything came in generous portions and was great for sharing. The staff was friendly and welcoming too. Definitely a great Chinese spot on the Upper East Side. We’d love to come back!“

“Check out my I G lawyer.traveler.dreamer for more footage of our experience. Bodai in Midtown Manhattan offers a rare and memorable dining experience. The restaurant blends Buddhist philosophy with royal vegetarian cuisine inspired by the Qing Palace. It was my first time trying a full vegetarian tasting menu, and I was impressed by how flavorful and creative every dish was. The mushroom dishes stood out the most, especially the Stichotas japonicus with cucumber sauce, the pan-seared boletus with green millet, and the Nepal mushroom quinoa with pepper sauce. Each course felt balanced and intentional—low oil, low sugar, and focused on natural taste. Even traditional dishes like Buddha Jumps Over the Wall and zhajiang noodles were reimagined beautifully. The dessert, called “Nectar of the Core,” was light and refreshing. Dining at Bodai feels like a calm, thoughtful journey through color, texture, and flavor. If you’re looking for an elevated vegetarian meal in NYC, this is worth a visit.“

“Delicious dim sum and pan fried flounder!“

“I had a fantastic experience at Young and Rich New York, thanks to our server, Kevin!

Because I have strict dietary needs, I requested my meal with no Monosodium Glutamate, no seafood sauce, no soy sauce, less salt, and less oil. Before taking my order, Kevin went straight to the chef to confirm that the kitchen could accommodate my specific requests.

His attention to detail was incredible throughout the meal. When we ordered the stir-fried water spinach and shredded potatoes, he remembered that the potato dish usually includes dried spicy peppers. Knowing I cannot handle spicy food, he proactively double-checked to ensure the peppers were left out.

Every dish was prepared perfectly, and Kevin made sure I felt completely taken care of from start to finish!“

“Came here with my family on a Sunday night, we were seated quickly with friendly and attentive service throughout! Everything we ate was handmade in house - including the pineapple cakes pictured here. I would really recommend getting the sauteed stinky tofu and the sesame oil pork kidney :) I will definitely come back to try out more from their menu!!“

“just went there today during a day trip to NYC with my friend and it was amazing! lovely service, noodles and soup were great, and meal was a great price for the portions. i definitely recommend 110%“

“I didn’t know what I was missing - Uyghur Lagman. It is slightly different than Uzbek, but certainly authentic. The hand-pulled noodles here made all the difference, as did the kind and hospitable young woman at the counter. Wish I lived nearby so I could come here more often!“

“Great authentic food. Really enjoyed it.“

“Ji Bei Chuan is my go-to hidden gem in Flushing. Both dry-tossed and soup rice noodles are fantastic: the Family Combo dry noodles are coated in rich savory sauce, the beef brisket noodle soup has a deep hearty broth, the pickled vegetable fish noodle is bright and appetizing, and the premium fish maw bowl is loaded with quality ingredients. Sides, grilled gluten and crispy juicy tofu are also amazing — perfect with noodles or beer. Highly recommend!“

“I'm celiac so we asked about gluten free options when ordering. The staff were very helpful and the chef was able to replace the regular soy sauce with gluten free spicy soy sauce in many of the dishes. So we were able to order most of what we wanted from the menu. I'm writing this the next day and I feel fine. 10/10 service! The food was delicious! Will definitely be back.“

“Great food and good value“

“The service was excellent; every staff member was warm, attentive, and responsive, making for a very pleasant dining experience. The ingredients were incredibly fresh—both the meat and vegetables were of high quality—and the meal was truly satisfying. The sauce station was spotless, and the overall environment was clean and comfortable. Whenever I crave hot pot, Jingmen is my go-to spot—highly recommended!“

“Best First Date Place in NYC 🩷“

“I stopped in here yesterday for lunch and it was without a doubt top 5 foods I’ve ever eaten, both inside and outside the U.S. The malatang hot pot broth was so savory and umami I couldn’t believe how good it was. Medium spice level was just a tad too much for me and I handle spice pretty well (should have listened to the girl at the front counter…). Cant wait to go back and try the other hot and dry pots.“

“Man, I love this place. Mom & pop business serving up elite dumplings, noodles, and rice bowls. Service is super friendly, and the food is absolutely delicious. Everything is so fairly priced, too. I hope we keep this place around forever. The veggie dumplings are great, too.“

“Waited an eternity to get in - almost 2 hrs. We got our names down for an hour later, came back at that time, and then had to wait down in the lower level all over again before finally getting a table. The food itself was just okay, nothing too bad or too good based on what we ordered (steamed dumplings, spicy noodles, and chicken fried rice). Overall, the wait is definitely not worth the food.“

“The service was fantastic. Our waiter offered advice when ordering for our group of 6. We ordered the perfect amount of food and it was all delicious! We ordered black bean style, garlic style, and general tsos along with string beans and fried rice. ALL of it was enjoyed by all of us from age 8 to adult. So soooo good! I wish we lived closer to come more often.“

“Absolutely loved this meal! The green pepper fish was fresh and tender, with a rich, tangy broth and a wonderful peppery aroma. The fish slices were delicate and soaked up all the flavors beautifully. The spicy beef was another highlight, packed with bold chili flavor and topped generously with scallions. The beef was tender, juicy, and incredibly satisfying with rice. Both dishes had completely different flavor profiles, so they complemented each other perfectly. Portions were very generous and everything arrived fresh and beautifully presented. A fantastic choice for anyone who enjoys flavorful Sichuan-style dishes. I would definitely order again!“

“The crab roe noodles were pretty overrated for me. They barely had any flavor, so I’d give them a 3/10.

The crab roe xiao long bao, though, was SO good—definitely one of the highlights. The fish was also really good and super tender. Unfortunately, the moon cake crab pastry was way too salty for me.

Overall, a bit hit or miss, but I’d definitely come back for the crab roe xiao long bao!“

“Went there on a monday night and the food was incredibly impressive. Got the Char Siu Bone Marrow for appetizers and lobster fried rice and filet mignon and broccoli for entree. Filet mignon and broccoli sauce was exceptionally delicious and the meat was so tender. The service was also impeccable since we walked in til we were done.“

“The food was so interesting and totally fresh. The largest shrimp I have ever seen. The soup was just the right amount of spice and good vegetables with tofu. I loved the steamed vegetable dumplings, almost like a dim sum sum bun but moister. Our server Lu was very friendly and efficient!“

“As a person who grew up in Hunan, China which loves rice noodles either with soup or dry stirred. They have decent rice noodles and great flavors. They also let you customize your own taste with spices, chilli oil, sour string beans and more stuff you can add yourself which give the customer lots of freedom while adjusting a flavor that they will like the most. Highly recommand for people who loves noodles!“

“These are so authentic (and trust me I grew up eating them) - satisfied a multi-year craving. Also - the lady making them was so nice!! Definitely worth the hype. Get the classic jianbing (no need to add additional toppings) for the classic bfast taste profile + experience.“
