50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Paulsboro

“I've tried all of the available chinese food options in the gibbstown-paulsboro area and this place is far and above the best of them. The portions are great and the food is always tasty. The prices for all of them were about the same, but this place doesn't charge a really high additional fee for using credit/debit to pay. If you want Chinese food in this area, this is the only place you should go to.“

“The food was delicious and the service was great. Already looking forward to returning and trying other items on the menu.“

“Always a must stop when staying in Philly! I crave their cold sesame noodles!!! The fried dumplings are excellent as well!!!“

“With outstanding quality and impeccable consistency, South Sichuan is a “No Miss” chinese restaurant with a great variety of spices and flavors. The freshness of their food will make it very hard to return to your neighborhood chinese takeout spot, and it is evidenced even in their side servings of white rice. This restaurant absolutely deserves its ratings.“

“Great Food and amazing drinks“

“Great food and a very cozy atmosphere. The restaurant has beautiful traditional Chinese-style decorations and a warm, authentic vibe. Every dish we ordered was delicious. Service was friendly as well. Definitely one of the better Chinese restaurants in the area!“

“We had a few different things off the menu and shared. Everything was amazing. All of the ingredients were fresh, the servers had great recommendations, and the service was prompt. We will definitely be back in the warmer months to enjoy the outdoor seating.“

“Made reservations at 7pm at loch bar for my sister’s birthday. I got there first and since my sister was a few minutes away, the host couldn’t seat me without her. My sister arrived at 7:05pm and the host informed us that it was busy therefore we would have to wait at the bar until there is a table available. I’m not sure what is the point of a reservation, if you won’t be seated right away. The bartender was really nice and welcoming. 20 minutes later, there was an open table. The appetizers were delicious especially the mussels!!!! The caviar and potato skin were sooo good as well. The oysters were fresh & cold just how I like it. I ordered shots of clase azul for my sister’s bday and we decided to do a bump of caviar & a shot of clase azul. It was a great combo! Thank me later.“

“all food Good 100 persen like“

“Great local spot for fresh yummy food“

“Elegant interior, tailored menu and combos.

Order upfront and served takeout style so easy to go, but portions should be just enough for a meal. Appreciate drink sizes seem like a large.

Best is the like new and clean seating and marble tables and restrooms.

Price seems high to reflect so enjoy a pleasant and cozy seating, at least not too busy on weekend brunch.“

“Excellent food and very reasonable price compared to other Chinatown dim sum restaurants. The food is self-serve: you grab a tray and go pick what you want and bring it to your table on your own. Staff take away your used trays and empty dishes.“

“Eggplant yum. Dan Dan noodles yum. Delish.“

“The best“

“All the rave reviews are true! I visited with a friend from out of town and we had a feast of our favorites. Nearly everything on the menu is vegan, and it was hard to choose! The lunch special is a fantastic value and includes soup and a spring roll. We chose the miso soup, which we agreed is the most flavorful we've ever had. The staff are friendly and really helpful, and the food came out really fast - truly cooked to order. And, as if that weren't enough, the prices are incredibly reasonable. 10/10. I can't wait to go back!“

“The food is as amazing as the owner. HAN IS THE MAN!!! Get the Dan Dan Noodles.“

“Do not judge the elevator entrance, this restaurant is my favorite hidden in the open gem. Their broth is deep with flavor and aroma. Lots of options to add into your HotPot. Big tables, lovely atmosphere, a never miss when we visit Philly.“

“If I had to limit dining to one restaurant in Philly, this would be it.“

“Awesome dumplings. Food seemed very authentic. Great service, quick too.“

“Best bao buns in town I recommend it“

“Great good greasy service this is the best food ever“

“For those who grew up in Cantonese households all know what “熱氣 (yit hei)” is all about lol.

What first caught my eye was the name: “Heung Fa Chun” (杏花邨) is actually the name of a real housing estate in Hong Kong, which instantly gave me a sense of authenticity.

They serve all kinds of nostalgic HK style snacks, from steamed buns and zongzi to traditional pastries and desserts. A true hole-in-the-wall gem in Philly Chinatown.

I was feeling a bit “yit hei” (literally “hot air” in Cantonese), so I grabbed myself a 龜苓膏 (herbal jelly/gui ling gao, aka “turtle jelly”). It's one of the go-to remedies for combatting yit hei. If you’re feeling yit hei, like breaking out, getting sore throats, or even indigestion, you need to eat some gwai ling go.

I was quite surprised to find it here. My mom would be so proud I got it without her having to tell me.

Warning: it’s VERY bitter if you eat it on its own. Definitely add the syrup to turn it into a healthy sweet trea.“

“Great food with great service and the atmosphere was a Vibe....will be back soon.“

“Great food! Easy walk from convention center! Enjoy!“

“This place is a must try if you are in the area. It was delicious.“

“Friendly, attentive, knowledgeable staff. Great fresh vegetarian options with delicious tomato broth. Good vibes and music. Clean bathrooms.“

“Always a good experience here. Me and my family have been ordering from here for at least 8 years and they always have delicious food. Everyone is super nice and pretty fast with the food. Overall amazing experience. Definitely recommend the vegetable and pork lo mein and the egg rolls are really good too.“

“Comforting meal for an affordable price. Loved how efficient the ordering process was and how fast the food came out. Piping hot and delicious

Not pictured in this are the rice rolls my friends ordered. As others have mentioned, they are on the thicker, more chewier side. Personally I like mine silkier so it wasn’t for me, but it was still enjoyable“

“Ordered for delivery. Food was here in 25 minutes, piping hot. Food was excellent. We have saved Mr Rice as our new favorite“

“Went to China Town today looking for Peking duck. We came across this restaurant and decided to try it. I was not disappointed! This might very well be the best Peking Duck I have ever eaten! We will be back for sure! The customer service was outstanding as well!“

“Wait staffers very helpful with menu“

“I ordered twice from them through Uber Eats and the food is fantastic! The first time I had fried rice, bbq spare rib tips, blue lemonade, and cheesesteak roll. This time I had regular lemonade with young chow fried rice. I sprinkled soy sauce on it in the picture, but trust me, it didn’t need it, it’s good on its own and I was just being extra lol. They’re officially my favorite Chinese food spot. They’re flavorful, consistent, and always piping hot!“

“I had such a good experience here. The broth was genuinely flavorful — not watered down or overly salty like some places. We did a split pot and both sides stayed rich the whole time. The spicy broth actually had depth to it instead of just heat, which I really appreciated.

The ingredient quality stood out the most. The meat was thinly sliced and fresh, not frozen-tasting, and the vegetables looked crisp and clean. Their sauce bar was also surprisingly good — lots of options, and everything tasted fresh. I liked being able to mix my own without it feeling messy or picked-over.“

“Been here very often and service is always top notch. Food is excellent and I always recommend people here.

One of my favorite dishes are a shrimp stuffed wild mushroom, sticky rice lobster, and a salted duck egg crab.

Most of their dishes are excellent and they have a great variety of desert and buns.“

“We wanted to try something new in old City. Love the area. There was great smell coming from the place and it drew us in. The food was good and our server was good.“

“Great steamed dumplings! We have tried many of the dishes and find everything to be very delicious. The owners are so sweet and kind. Always pleasing and pleasant. So glad they are so close.“

“Believe the reviews this is a hidden gem I’m happy I found it I doubted at first based off the way it look meaning the space but this is authentic Chinese food clean, fresh and the sauce is different then any other Chinese store I went to in south Philly it’s so good this my new favorite spot“

“Very fast service, nice new owner. The restaurant is clean and offers bubble tea, which is my favorite. I love coming here and getting exactly what I want. Try their sesame balls, they are the best!!! I come here at least once a week. I love it!“

“Jiang Nan has a dark, intimate vibe, but the spotlight lighting on the food makes everything look extra good. Service was quick and way more friendly and hospitable than most Chinatown spots. They even gave us a small complimentary spicy cabbage that was super refreshing.We ordered the Peking duck, salted egg yolk fried prawns, and Dan Dan noodles. The duck was sooo tender and the skin was crispy but light, not hard or chewy like Sang Kee can be sometimes. The salted egg yolk prawns were really good and nice and crispy. The Dan Dan noodles were okay, just a little basic compared to the other dishes. I’d definitely go back to try more. Just FYI, happy hour is only Monday–Thursday!“

“Food is excellent! Service is great.“

“I have only ordered take-out delivery. The orders are accurate and delivery is quick. But -the food is delicious. Absolutely the best Hot and Sour soup. I ordered Wonton Soup tonight and I cannot believe how tender the wontons were. Just delicious!“

“everything even the Bubba Tea!! everything is Soo good!! I feel like I go there everyday“

“Ordered lunch from Cheng’s on 3/19/26 ~ 1pm. After watching many videos on social media of creators eating yat gaw mein, I was craving but did not want to go to a place that had a high crime rate.
Staff: The staff was friendly and patient when I ordered and made sure I knew how to get to location.
Environment: Located on York Rd in Govans north of Cold Spring, the environment was OK but there were quite a few young men loitering on sidewalk…no one gave me a hard time when walking in or out.
Food: ordered the shrimp ya gat mein stir fry and a cheese steak egg roll. Noodles were thick, well coated in sauce. Served with onions. There were between 16 - 20 shrimp that were small, likely frozen previously but were deveined. The dish was solid but I would have preferred more salt. Next time, I will order the other way they prepare and ask for some heat. The hard-boiled egg was perfect. Not overcooked at all. Cheesesteak egg roll was very cheesy and tasty. There wasn’t a great deal of beef in the roll however. After eating half the meal, I felt satisfied but not full and sleepy like I have after eating carry out from other places.
Cost: $13.50 plus tax
I will go back again.“

“I am closing in on 40 and have been coming to this restaurant since I was a small child, some of my earliest memories are family dinners at Da Chen. The staff here are amazing— kind, attentive, helpful, and generous. Their house made duck sauce and crispy fried wonton chips ARE OUT OF THIS WORLD. Do not sleep on them if you only ever order take-out! You receive the crispy wonton chips with any soup order, but you have to ask for their homemade duck sauce on the side (costs like 25¢ iirc)!!! My favorite foods from here are: wonton soup, their complimentary jasmine tea, shrimp toast, beef & broccoli, sweet & sour chicken, general tso’s chicken, pork fried rice, and the bao bao platter (it’s such a fun treat eating this for dine-in). You will always receive the same quality service and food here, and somehow over the years it’s even gotten better! Da Chen is child-friendly and has high chairs available to use, and is wheelchair-accessible straight from the ample free parking lot and into the restaurant. Da Chen accepts cash, debit or credit. Thank you Da Chen!! ?? ❤️

Dietary restrictions: There are vegetarian and gluten free options here

Parking: Da Chen has its own parking lot. It is free with plenty of space.

Kid-friendliness: I have been coming here since I was an infant. Da Chen has high chairs available to use for toddlers and babies :)

Wheelchair accessibility: Da Chen is wheelchair accessible, there is a ramp from the parking lot and inside the store is accessible.“

“This is our go to Chinese restaurant! The first and only that we really love around here! It’s a 20 min walk from us and in hot weather it feels longer, but it’s ALWAYS worth it! They’re so nice, the food is awesome, fair prices, and our order is always right! Their cheese pizza rolls are so good! Which are a nice treat when you want pizza and Chinese lol. Their shrimp eggs rolls are also my favorite! I usually get two :)“

“Got two orders of General Tso’s. Crispy, spicy, and arguably the best in Philadelphia. Portions were solid, prices were easy on the wallet.

Tommy was cool — service was fast and chill.

And yeah… you can even grab a pack of cigs after. Elite.“
