47 Best Chinese Restaurants in Albuquerque

“We had an amazing experience at PF Chang’s thanks to our server, Jonathan. He was incredibly attentive from start to finish — always checking in at the perfect moments, keeping our water glasses full, and making sure every detail of our order was accurate. His care, professionalism, and friendly attitude truly stood out.
Jonathan went above and beyond to make our meal enjoyable, and it’s clear he takes pride in representing the PF Chang’s brand. Management should absolutely recognize him for the outstanding service he provides. We’ll definitely be back, thanks to him“

“As a bit of a picky eater, I can have some trouble finding appetizing things to eat in new restaurants. The vegetable rice and Japanese noodles were spectacular and nostalgic of the type I usually stock at home. Service was also decently fast for the amount of food my party ordered. Only note was that the general atmosphere was somewhat lackluster, but for some takeout its a great spot.“

“Great little locally owned place for Chinese comfort food. Hot and fresh with large portions. The general tso’s chicken and hunan chicken are solid choices. We appreciate that the spice level can be customized as we usually opt for more spice. Vegetables in the dishes are always plentiful, large, and still have a crunch-never soggy. Get the
almond cookies for dessert! Happy Garden is located in a pretty decent shopping center with plenty of parking. However, while the interior is clean and quiet, it does provide a bit of a lackluster, indoor dining experience.“

“This place is amazing.. huge food portions.. the service was impeccable..and the food came out quickly. Definitely a hidden gem!!!! 😉😉“

“My wife and I decided to try this place because we had never been to it and she was returning from a long trip. We were immediately seated when we walked in. It was moderately busy just before lunch. We ordered the Hoy Ping for $15.95 per person. It came with egg drop soup, bbq spare ribs, fried shrimp, egg rolls and foil wrapped chicken for appetizers. The main course was beef chow mein, cashew chicken, sweet and sour pork,general tao's chicken, and steamed and fried rice. My wife also got vegetable egg foo young.
The portions were plenty for two people, we ended up taking a lot of it home and it lasted for two more meals between us. The flavors were good, not great. Not my favorite Chinese food I've had in New Mexico, but far from the worst. I would definitely come back as the value was great and the service was friendly and timely.“

“Always go here for Chinese New Year's. Been going since I was a kid. Staff is always nice especially to kids. Try and go multiple times a year. The prices are reasonable especially for the amount of food that is served. I only marked a higher price cause my family shares food and we usually ordered alot more then person to food ratio.“

“We had a party of 12 and our server Owen was super attentive and helped us celebrate the birthdays in the group! Food was delicious!“

“I tried Jade on my lunch break today. The service was fast & friendly, the price was good & the serving was substantially more than you would get other places for the same price and it tasted delicious.

Definitely added to my list of favorite lunch places.“

“Absolutely deliciously flavorful! Great place! Food is amazing and service is friendly!!! 👍👍“

“Great food, they make their own fresh noodles there ! What a difference. Best PD Thai. Unusual noodle dishes. Found it by serendipity, will come back when in ABQ again.“

“Delicious. We will eat there again. Would like it if the "spicy" dishes were spicier.“

“We’re visiting from Los Angeles and were genuinely surprised to find such authentic Sichuan food in Albuquerque! The flavors are incredibly authentic — bold, numbing, spicy, and aromatic with real depth. It’s not just heat for the sake of heat, but a rich fragrance and lingering aftertaste that truly reminds us of home.
We especially recommend the grilled fish and Mao Xue Wang. The cooking was spot on — perfectly balanced seasoning, tender meats, and flavorful ingredients throughout. It honestly tastes just like a high-quality Sichuan restaurant back in China.
The service was warm and welcoming. The owner was very friendly and took the time to patiently introduce the dishes. The restaurant is clean and well-kept, and the food came out quickly. It’s not easy to find this level of authentic Sichuan flavor in New Mexico. We’ll definitely come back next time we crave something spicy and will absolutely recommend it to friends!“

“My old go-to Chinese restaurant is closed so I searched for something in my area. Came upon China Casa. I was wary but dcided to give it a try. Well, it's Delicious! I got vegetable chow mein and egg rolls. The egg rolls are made with regular egg roll wrappers! Sp glad I gave it a try! This is my new go-to!“

“This place is so good. I love their fried rice. Me, my father, and my brother go there all the time for their fried rice. The best place for a $11 lunch! And not to mention, it has a great amount of rice. They fill the whole to-go container.“

“Wow. I've been searching for a chinese restaurant since my favorite one closed. The food here has lots of flavor. I requested extra hot, which they did. I have not found a place that will honor my request for extra spicy until now. We will be going back. Highly recommend.“

“Finally found a decent Chinese restaurant in ABQ. It’s been discouraging until we found this place. We’ve eaten there 4 times in the last month. Both take out and dine in. Everything has been really good, except the General Tso’s Chicken. It was ok, but not great. I recommend this place.“

“We had a party of 12 and our server Owen was super attentive and helped us celebrate the birthdays in the group! Food was delicious!“

“We had our first experience at Zu Hot Pot and it was amazing! The staff were very attentive and helped with portions and sizing. It was also our daughter’s birthday and they made it extra special! We will definitely be going back!“

“NOTHING SPECIAL.

We ordered beef fried rice HOWEVER we had to pay to have the veggies added which should have been there anyway.

It was an additional $1.00 for each added veggie. We added 3 but not told it would be an extra $1.00 for each added veggie until we got the bill.“

“Good news is the new owners kept the old recipes. The food is as good as it ever was.
We had a large party about 25 people. We had large pans of a few entrees. We had white, fried rice and egg rolls. The food pretty much came out at one time as asked. The only problem was they had a hard time serving the drinks and bringing refills.
The new owners just weren't ready for something like this. All in all the party went well the food was good and everybody had a good time.“

“It’s fairly close to West Mesa high school so during lunch I would walk there, it ended up being so good that sometimes I’d stop there on weekends which was when it’s at it’s peak with people. If you tasty authentic mexican food, I recommend here“

“I’ve been going to golden chopsticks since I was a kid, they’ve been one of the most sweetest people I’ve met. Their food is genuinely amazing! If you ever want some good food please go to Golden Chopsticks! These people work hard for their money, they have always gave good portions, they’ve always made sure you’re comfortable aswell. Golden chopsticks is genuinely amazing.“

“Good Chinese at super affordable prices. Always fresh.“

“The food is always very good and the service is excellent. Happy Family is my favorite but everything I have tried was yummy for sure“

“Great food! I Alk the foods are fresh and newly cooked! The place is so clean and very comfortable!“

“Amazing hibachi experience! Danny was a fantastic chef—great food, lots of laughs, and an all-around great time. Thanks, Danny!“

“me and my family went in at 8 pm an hour before they closed and ordered $60 worth of food and we had received almond cookies for free and then we realized we forgot to order the egg drop soup for my daughter so when I went back up to the register fully expecting her to be mad the girl was so sweet about it so we will definitely be going back“

“they were so attentive and the food was amazing. i haven't had a pick up this good in awhile. will be going back and tipping extra because they really deserve it. ❤️❤️❤️“

“Fresh ingrediants! Nice owner!“

“The food was incredible! The staff were friendly and answered all my questions succinctly. We had enough to be full and to take home enough to be full at the house later this afternoon or for dinner this evening. I provided a photo for what we're taking back!“

“I had such a great experience dining here! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and Benny made us feel genuinely welcomed. The service was attentive without being overwhelming, which made the whole evening feel relaxed and enjoyable.

The food was absolutely delicious—everything tasted fresh and full of flavor. You can really tell there’s attention to detail in both the presentation and the quality of the ingredients. Every dish we tried was a hit!“

“10/10 — YUM! We went around 6:30 pm on a Friday and were seated right away. The food was absolutely delicious and came out quickly. We’ve been searching for good bao and dumplings in Albuquerque, and this place definitely delivered. The restaurant was clean and comfortable. We will absolutely be coming back and will be bringing extended family and friends with us next time!

“It's in the mall food court. I was delighted to find it. The food is great and I think maybe a little cheaper than the usual Panda Express. The atmosphere is standard mall but certainly okay. I have also ordered delivery.

Vegetarian options: Well, they have lots of stir fried vegetables. I'm not a vegetarian so I'm not sure about cross contamination with the meat dishes but it looks ideal to me.

Parking: There is lots of outdoor parking near the entrance to the mall that goes directly to the food court

Kid-friendliness: There are little race cars and things the kids love to ride in, free at the mall. Kids would be able to eat in the comfort of a noisey mall instead of being confined in a restaurant

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes there seems to be ramps and the like. I push a dog buggy and we had no problems getting over curbs etc.“

“Been going to this place for several months now in the span of a few years, for the past few years I've lived here in Albuquerque and this Panda Express has been the MOST reliable out of them all! Out of the MANY Panda Express restaurants I've been to, this one here has been the most consistent with it's food, service, and atmosphere. The most recent manager, named Ezra, has been a more recent hire from the time of writing this, despite having worked at this location for a week, he fits right in with everyone else and has been the most accomadating out of all the previous managers before him, he's also more out n' about compared to the others, the food here is excellent too, cooked to perfection nearly 80-90% of the time I've gone here, with the rare few times the food didn't come out right of course, having more flavor than most foods I've had, and not to mention the employees who are usually always friendly and have a funny bone most of the time when chatting with them. I recommend this Panda Express the most in particular to anyone who stops by this place and wants something good to fill their stomachs, or to just chill for a bit.

And to Ezra, if you see this, sorry for lying to you about the review ?, I never once thought about reviewing this place until you mentioned it and I got really nervous, so I lied in order to properly review this place, which, by all means, deserves a proper review after having been here for such a long time and for so many years, don't even know why the thought never crossed my mind honestly, thank you man, I hope you enjoy your time here and wish you luck, I look forward to the next time we meet, sorry for all the trouble lol.“

“Pleasantly surprised by how good it was, quick in and out. Polite staff who had us wait just a few minutes for the fresh hot food to come out, highly recommend, prices are very good and portion will feed you well.
Don't just by the outside appearance“
