50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Fairview

“Good food and delivery is fast“

“I've been a loyal customer of Fairview Chinese Takeout since 2017, and the food has been consistently delicious every single time. Whether it's the fried rice, lo mein, General Tso's chicken, or any of their other dishes, everything is always fresh, flavorful, and prepared with care.

What truly sets this place apart is the outstanding customer service. A special thank you to Ada, who always takes exceptional care of our orders. She is friendly, attentive, and goes above and beyond to make sure everything is correct and that we have a great experience. Her kindness and professionalism keep us coming back year after year.

After nearly a decade of ordering from Fairview Chinese Takeout, I can confidently say they are one of the best around. Great food, excellent service, and wonderful people. Highly recommended!“

“My whole family decided to go on a trip together and we came upon this restaurant since it was near the place we were visiting. Can I just say, the food was AMAZING. We ordered egg rolls and it was REALLY tasty. I’d definitely come here again! ❤️“

“This being the third time I've eaten there, I can understand why they call themselves No. 1 or No One.Each one of the different plates I've order for take out is better than other local fast food Chinese restaurants in the area; that could be why they call themselves No. 1. The General Tsao is just the right amount of spicy and a good size portion for their asking price.Now if you play with words and notice their name can also mean No One, here is how I justify that name. Their open area restaurant and kitchen means you can see them cooking and how your food is prepared. Besides being quick to prepare your dish, the area is clean, well organized, and staffed. During the covid period they had put in place a intercom system where you ordered from the outside and clearly spoke with the counterperson Plus it's one of the only fast food Chinese restaurant in the area that accepts debit credit cards with the minimum purchase of course. Therefore the name No One basically means they're unique for a local Chinese fast food restaurant.They have my business until things change but I recommend them and I'm certain you will like the food and how they cook the dishes plus the service is adequate for a local fast food restaurant. Good job earning my business No. 1, looking forward to trying other dishes on your menu.“

“This place is a hidden gem and has been here for as long as I can remember. The food is awesome and must say are never cheap with the portions either. Everything I had was always tastes great and also customer service is A1. Had a small incident with delivery which took a little long owner remade my food and helped me solve the situation real quick!!!! Love this place and thank you for the great food and service“

“Great oyster mushroom and rice rolls“

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

“Every time I eat here, it takes me back to when I was growing up. They started as a rice roll cart on Grand Street, and they've perfectly preserved that authentic street-cart taste.

The steamed rice rolls with curry fish balls are soft, chewy, and perfectly sauced with hot sauce and extra peanut sauce. Grab an iced Hong Kong milk tea to go with it.

Highly recommend for a true taste of old-school Chinatown!“

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

“Great, delicious food! Beautiful setting. Great Service.“

“What a treasure! Everything we ate here was amazing, the lightest scallion pancake ever, the spiciest soft shell crab, tea smoked duck that was like the best Carolina barbecue ever. The bean curd with pepper oil. All of it. Cocktails were banging too. And the servers were all fantastic too. Even the ink was top shelf!“

“Had a fantastic first experience at Corner Chinese!“

“Great experience, great food, great hospitality“

“This place changed my life. I first moved to the neighborhood in 2022, I was scared, young, nervous, but ready for the big city. Thankfully The Handpulled Noodle was there to give me the vitamins and minerals I needed to work without end for my dear landlord. The Handpulled Noodle was there for me when nobody was. When you’re looking for insanely good noodles to eat, look no further. P.S. try the mango tea.“

“Spicy Village was a wonderful place to have a Christmas meal! Actually, I'd like to rename it "Spicy Cozy Village" if a spicy environment can also be cozy! To start with, they were very gracious by accepting a reservation for 8 people at 6:00. Then they came outside and took our order even before we sat down and so the food was nearly ready by the time we had taken our coats off! The festivities kicked off with a plate of crispy peanuts, which ended up being the chosen appetizer, main course, and dessert for the little guy in our party. We then progressed to delicious dumplings, sesame chicken, spicy lamb huimei, and other delectable specialties! What was so amazing about the experience is that despite packing lots of people into a relatively small square foot area, it did not feel claustrophobic at all; rather it was comfortable and cozy, like sitting at a big table for a family meal at your house (even if it was take-out!!). Overall, Spicy Village was a terrific place for Christmas dinner - and I'm strongly considering coming back here for the 8 days of Hanukkah too!“

“#豬肉腸加芫荽蔥 豬肉腸➕芫荽蔥係我一向響一記嘅叫法，暫時一記整嘅呢隻味道我已經食得好滿足，我唔需要轉住。😆  #一記 #nyc“

“The food was BUSSS!!! The steamed buns are some of the best you could get anywhere if you can only taste one thing that should definitely be your choice. The dumplings are also super good and everything is so cheap. Only issue is the dirtiness in the mall but I feel like it’s part of the experience so no biggie. Definitely a unique super tasty experience.“

“Hospitality AAA FOOD AA PRICE A“

“Stopped by for dinner while in the NYU area and it feels like the kind of place that just fits the neighborhood.

Very casual setup, nothing fancy. A lot of students coming through, people eating solo or in small groups — pretty easy spot to drop into without thinking too much.

Food is more on the home-style side. Not overly heavy or overly seasoned, which actually makes it easier to come back to. Portions are decent, and prices are reasonable for this part of the city.

It’s not really a “destination” restaurant, but more of a reliable, everyday kind of place. If you’re around NYU, I can see this becoming part of a regular rotation.“

“We have been coming to Birds of a Feather for unbeatably delicious Sichuan food for years, and recently had our engagement party in the main room. We can't praise the event team, kitchen, and bar staff enough! The food was exceptional as always, and the service was wonderfully attentive and gracious. Plenty of options for vegetarian friends as well. Will continue to come back to Birds any time we want a perfect meal.“

“Fresh and homemade Chinese food. An amazing cheff, cooking with passion and love. Highly recommended 💯“

“Insane drinks made by Bonnie (the Jasmine Fall and the Cherry Old Fashioned) the flavors were unlike anything else we’ve ever had. Will be dreaming about the Jasmine Fall. Same with the food - absolutely amazing dumplings. Also - drinks were buy one get one free because it was late night. Bonnie is the best - she was so helpful and kind when it came to helping us narrow down what we wanted!“

“Was pretty excited to see this place right next to my hotel. Ate twice before I left back home. 🍜 ramen was amazing“

“Shrimp with crispy peppers and peanuts and pork cooked in soy sauce with egg“

“Absolutely delighted that we are there. Food is absolutely delicious the duck was crispy and the amount of food was outstanding, we could not finish everything even when we tried.

Atmosphere was great and waiters are so nice and attentive, you would miss something by leaving nyc and not eat there !“

“We came here to try the iconic pineapple pork bun! It’s pretty good but my partner definitely enjoyed it more than I did. I wish I was in NYC longer to try out everything else on their menu. Everything looked good and reasonably priced.“

“Shan is where you go when you want to do anything from grab a casual meal to celebrate a milestone in life. They also deliver which randomly takes a long time but it’s so good you don’t care when that food hits your mouth. Shan is a household word which we judge all other eating experiences by.
We ❤you Shan.“

“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.“

“We came for dinner on a Sunday after a show, the menu was a 7-course tasting menu with an optional 8th course and an optional wine pairing. We opted for the 8th course and my wife did the wine pairing, I got the Sour Plum cocktail which was fantastic. The price was on the low end for a Michelin starred restaurant, making this a comparatively more accessible option for fine dining. The staff was very bubbly and constantly executing elevated soft touches to make for a memorable experience. The dishes had such a vast array of flavors, my favorite was the plum duck but it’s tough to choose from so many strong contenders. There wasn’t a single “miss”. The wine pairing was a perfect complement to the courses, we’d highly recommend opting for it since that took this to the next level. We had an excellent experience and highly recommend Yingtao!

Date visited: 3/8/26“

“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!“

“This if for 2 visits. First one was during the week for lunch. The lunch special fish came with cucumbers andspring rolls,the fish was crispy and full of flavor absolutely a must get. The truffle shumai was huge juicy and lots of truffle, the fried rice was delicious and the drinks tasty. Service is 10 out of 10 the lady who works there is so friendly and sweet she constantly checked up on us and talked with everyone at the table that it was so great we made a reservation for mothers day. Mothers day visit was fantastic she was there again to serve us and same fantastic service. Everything we ordered was hot flavorful fresh and worth it. We also got tea for the table which was refilled for us and the date dessert which was a nice ending to a wonderful mean. Definitely check it out they do specials during the week. We were told check the ig page to see them last month Thursday they did all you can drink.“

“Good food with a price you cannot beat.“

“We found a new Chinatown favorite here… highly recommend! ❤️“

“Great dinner, great setting, excellent service 👌“

“This is definitely a place I will be coming back to. We got the popcorn chicken, beef noodles and the beef with rice. Everything was flavorful and the chicken was perfectly seasoned and crispy. The restaurant was also very spacious with plenty of seating. 10/10!“

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

“Lychee ice was delicious and quite sweet, with a few real lychees in it. The braised lobster with scallions was a bit too salty. The osmanthus vermicelli and egg soup actually had a hint of osmanthus fragrance. The quality of their dishes is relatively consistent.“

“Great food, everything it’s delicious !!!“

“Always wanted to try this place.

Let’s start with the pros. Definitely worth the hype. Make sure to get the egg burrata dip with extra fried dough. I would skip the truffle ravioli. It sounded interesting, but was just okay. We also got the peppercorn fish stew which is always staple. Overall, foodwise, I appreciated the play on italian Szechuan food, but I would definitely research a bit beforehand for what to order.

Okay, now the cons. I will say, I thought they were known for their cocktails, but they were just okay so I think you can skip these unless you want to pair.

My one other complaint was that this was our anniversary dinner and we did mention it in our resy reservation, so we were wondering if they would prepare a little something, but they didn’t even congratulate us. Pretty sure this was an oversight, but this was my nitpick and for these reasons I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5.

Otherwise, highly recommend coming here with a big group to try multiple dishes!“

“The food is consistently delicious and is always fresh but the portions are small“

“Incredible Food. Incredibly attentive and professional staff. Instant favorite.“

“Very good well done food.“

“Great prices for delicious food. I see why Guy Fieri has come here three times. The noodles are perfectly imperfect and the flavors are spot on. The only questionable thing about the place is that the duck is served bone-in which brought down my wife's enjoyment of her dish“

“tried the salty Duck egg fried rice with shrimp and it was full of flavor. must try!“

“$3.50 for wheat noodles peanut butter. Awesome taste with freshly prepared
$5.00 Dumplings were good too.
Lines look too long but if moved very fast. If you’re a group try to find a spot to have a dine-in as there is a less spacing inside the restaurant. Bring Cash only.“

“Went there for my birthday first time Food was amazing the flavor open up my taste buds even more then what I usually go for but I will definitely go back the waiters and waitresses we're super nice especially Kim she made my birthday even more special her energy was so beautiful so I will definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to try something new I do recommend you make a reservation instead of walking in because they fell up fast“

“Everything is good“

“Wonderful food, friendly and helpful staff, great atmosphere and location. The best soup dumplings I’ve had in Manhattan.“

“I’ve been on a malatang phase and this is one of the better ones I’ve had. You build your own bowl and it actually feels like the flavors come through, not everything blending into one spicy mess.

The broth is rich but still balanced. It has depth without feeling greasy, and you can actually taste what you picked instead of it getting lost.

Ingredients feel fresh and there’s a good variety. Nothing looks tired or sitting there all day.

Also their chili oil is really good, which makes a big difference. It brings everything together without overpowering it.

It’s a bit chaotic grabbing everything but that’s part of it. Not a place to sit for long, just build your bowl, eat, and go. But it’s consistently solid and I keep coming back.“

“I live in Queens and visited Jiang’s 4 times already since last year. It is really THAT good. Our go-to are the hand rolled noodles with lamb and the crispy dry chicken. We’ve tried so many other items, but these two are something I miss every once in a while. If only they were closer! The people working there are very kind and the best part of all is that they have a prayer area for Muslims. What else can you ask for?“
