50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Howard Beach

“Half chicken with chicken fried rice was good so no complaints there. I ordered some BBQ ribs on the side and got 5 ribs in a bag for $10 which I didn't think was too bad although the ribs were a little dry. I had asked for duck sauce and they made sure to accommodate me by giving me 6 whole packets of duck sauce so I guess they either really care about accommodating their customers, or maybe they were being petty idk. Regardless, my go to Chinese spot closed down some months ago so this might have to be my new go to. Honestly, my favorite thing about this place is probably the prices, as the places closer to my house are more expensive.“

“Excellent food that tastes clean with great portions. The women at the front desk is always polite and the food is prepared quick. Pictured is the Kung Po Chicken lunch special and the Hot & Spicy Bean Curd w/ Minced Pork which are my personal favs.“

“Don’t understand why here has bad reviews? This place has great food, friendly staff, great prices on their items. For fitness people, get the brown rice and sauce on the side if you wanna stay healthy. This place makes chinese food healthy!“

“Great oyster mushroom and rice rolls“

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

“I’ve been to another Che Li location a few times and visited this location for the first time back in May. The restaurant’s design is always lovely — each dining area is built like a small wooden oriental courtyard, which matches the Zhejiang cuisine theme perfectly.

We ordered quite a lot, and every dish turned out to be enjoyable. The crab roe noodle was especially delicious, better than the version I make at home lol. The soup dumpling were also quite good. Overall, a very refined and satisfying meal.“

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

“Came here for my anniversary dinner and was blown away by Breeze (pun intended). Easily some of, if not the best Sichuan food we’ve ever had. I got the Winter Frost #2 cocktail and I wasn’t sure what type of flavor I was expecting but it didn’t taste like what I expected in a good way! The cocktail had a mildly sweet, light but depth in flavor profile.

The ginger sauce green beans were some of the best green beans I’ve ever tasted. The sauce they used was addicting. Second favorite item was the diced chicken with chili pepper, which was super spicy but absolutely delicious. But to be honest all of the dishes were home runs! I was just here last night and I’m already daydreaming about coming back to try more dishes.

Also the service was exceptional. The restaurant was full and there were only two guys to cover the front of the house (the hostess, waiter, bartender, and bus boy). They definitely had their hand fulls but still were efficient. Since it was our anniversary dinner they ended up surprising us with a pumpkin rice cake dessert on the house which we thought was the sweetest gesture. I couldn’t have been happier since I absolutely love rice cakes 😋“

“Antidote was such a great spot to have dinner on my visit to NYC. The wait was not too long considering there were 7 people in my party. We had so many items off the menu and the staff was very attentive to allergies and other food preferences. The tea smocked duck was incredible, the cucumber was amazing, the wontons were delicious! Everyone loved their dish it was absolutely a great dinner. The only downside was that some of the fish dishes were made with tilapia which is not a fish preference for most of the friends I was with. I will definitely be back and I highly recommend this restaurant“

“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!“

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

“I was recommended this restaurant and took a chance on it as I was looking to diversify where I eat in Brooklyn. I ordered the chicken dumplings and fried rice with duck. Both were excellent and even for the lunch special, the portion of fried rice was too much for just one person. While the service wasn't particularly great, the food and prices were excellent.“

“Yingtao is an awesome spot! The food is fresh, flavorful, and beautifully made — every dish tastes authentic and perfectly balanced. The staff are super friendly and make you feel right at home, and the atmosphere is cozy but modern. Everything from the dumplings to the noodles was spot-on. Definitely one of my new favorite places to eat! 🥢🍜✨“

“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.“

“Juqi was a nice dining experience. Most of the dishes when served were presented in a way to elevate one's dining experience. I was there for a birthday dinner and we were seated in a room. The table felt small at first but the waitstaff knew what to do that it never felt too crowded. Besides the food being good the waitstaff were consistent with changing plates and bringing the next course. Some of the dishes that stood out was the beef and tomato soup, the duck, the black rice that is set on fire (the aroma was pleasing where you're not sure what ingredients were put in) The soups were presented in a small ceramic bowl and tea lights were put underneath to keep it warm. This was a set menu and because there was a lot of food it was hard to keep track. Overall a good dinner out and a nice place for all group sizes to celebrate a special occasion or just a nice evening out.“

“Everything is good“

“Chicken, duck, pork, rice and cabbage—oh my. Super tasty. Out does everyone in the zip code. No exaggeration.“

“I came here for a friend's birthday dinner and we had an amazing time. The interior of the restaurant is spacious and I love the cozy but very Chinese decor. Our waitress was so nice, easy to talk to, and fun. The service was really quick.

We ordered hot and sour soup, peking pork, string beans, honey walnut shrimp, beef chow fun, short ribs, beef stew and radish casserole, and salted fish and eggplant casserole. Everything was delicious. My favorites were their peking pork, string bean, and casserole dishes. The honey walnut shrimp was good but the portions were okay for a group of 9. The beef chow fun was a great portion but I wish there was more flavor. Loved the short rib. They gave us complimentary watermelon at the end, as well as birthday flan for my friends and I. Had a great time and I think this is the perfect spot for some casual Chinese food with a big group of people (We got 10 dishes and the total ended up being only $240, post-tax for a group of 9! We all left STUFFED).“

“Why did it take me so long to try YGF? 🤯 This place is a gem! The restaurant is spacious, clean, and incredibly well-organized. I was impressed by the wide selection of fresh vegetables, proteins, and carbs — all customizable with your choice of soup or dry base for $16.99/lb. It’s easy to get carried away with so many delicious options!

My bowl came out to exactly a pound, and it was totally worth it. Flavorful, satisfying, and fun to build — I’m definitely coming back for more! 🥢🔥“

“good price for food. $12 for a beef noodle soup was not bad. the noodle was soft and thin, which im okay with. the soup was not so special but go well together overall. beef, veggie, soup,.. were all decent. the only thing that kinda surprised me was the food in plastic bowl. hopefully they’ll change it cause you dont want hot food go with plastic container.“

“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.“

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

“Had a fantastic first experience at Corner Chinese!“

“Easily the best Chinese restaurant in Brooklyn. Beautiful space, great food (get the whole steamed fish) and excellent service—friendly, helpful and relaxed. The place is busy but we never felt rushed. And for the quality and quantity of food it’s a great value. Will definitely be back.“

“great food, friendly staff, very clean bathroom.“

“Great experience, great food, great hospitality“

“This is great Chinese food, Hong Kong style. Their lunch specials are affordable, delicious and filling. For dessert I recommend the mango dish - it’s like a juice with grapefruit pulp and was refreshing and really delicious. Service was amazing.“

“Best LoMein I have ever eaten!! The steamed dumplings with the Chili Oil was out of this world! All the food was delicious and full of dynamic flavors. Service was stellar and the atmosphere was so welcoming. A total must!!!!

Vegetarian options: yummy

Kid-friendliness: very welcoming“

“i’m so happy more people are discovering this spot. the first time i came here i was genuinely speechless because of how good the food was… had to run it back multiple tiimmessss!!!

i have no complaints whatsoever, 10s across the board!!“

“The broth is clear and has a simple yet delicate flavor. The fresh ingredients are used, and the savoriness is like a Zen experience. The beef tripe is cooked in a way that preserves its true flavor, unlike the spice-rich ones you usually find at a dim sum place, which is very pleasant.“

“Went to Twilight Lounge yesterday as a group of 4 - we had a great time. When we got in, we immediately noticed the atmosphere - it wasn't too loud, and the decor was nice.

The surpassed our expectations though.

We ordered several things, the cucumber and wood ear appetizers, braised fish, crab and egg tofu, pork belly, bok choy, stir fried potato. I was surprised when all of the dishes were good - when ordering so many dishes usually there's something that's not well seasoned etc.

I enjoyed them all but was surprised by how good the bok choy was - tons of garlic, very flavorful and cooked just right.

The person serving us was also very nice.“

“Outstanding.“

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

“Cash only.

This couple makes the absolute best food in town. Perfectly cooked and seasoned, large variety of options, from meats and seafood to mushrooms and vegetables.

Be ready to order, choose your spice level, and pay cash.

The couple is very friendly unless someone gives them a reason not to be.

Food is delicious and filling and will keep you ordering more and coming back with friends.“

“Newly opened Chinese Restaurant along 3rd Ave. Expect Manhattan prices; though serving is plentiful. Get the Lunch Special for the most banging for your buck, Lunch specials available even on weekends. Overall, if you want better food than your hole in the wall Chinese restaurant, this is a nice treat.“

“The food is consistently fresh and tasty. So happy to have an excellent Szechwan restaurant in a neighborhood where good Chinese cuisine is sorely lacking.“

“Wow. Lemme just say this restaurant is my new favorite in all of Flushing, let alone the best Hunan restaurant in America. Spicy lovers this will definitely hit home with the boiled sauerkraut fish, braised lamb and minced meat with peppers. The brown sugar glutinous rice is to die for. Will be back very soon, probably tomorrow.“

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

“Large quantities and yummy food! We got 2 combos for two for 6 ppl and it was more than enough food. We got the classic spice with bean curd and king oyster mushrooms, chicken wings, and pork belly. We also got the tomato soup with fish and beef with lotus root and wide noodles plus milk custard and spicy noodles. Would come again!“

“What a great find!!! Place was cool inside, food was yummy, we liked it a lot. Staff were friendly and nice. We will definitely go back.“

“Great authentic food. Really enjoyed it.“

“Delicious dim sum and pan fried flounder!“

“Fantastic gem in LIC. Great authentic flavors and extensive menu. Fun cocktails too!! Highly recommend the black jack beef, Mongolian lamb, Changsha chicken and dragon eye for dessert. Amazing. Liam was our server and was very attentive, personable and gave great recommendations. Check it out!“

“Overall, I had a great experience at this restaurant. The food was tasty, the service was good, and everything looked clean. They seated me quickly, and the portions were huge — one dish is definitely enough for two people.

I ordered a tomato noodle soup, but I found it had way too many noodles and not enough vegetables or meat. Also, since most of the broths are pork-based, there aren’t many options if you don’t eat pork. I also tried the mushroom (wood ear) salad, which was fresh and delicious.

In short: the food is good and flavorful, but I’d love to see more balance with the soup (less noodles, more veggies and meat) and a few more non-pork soup options on the menu“

“Great food and good value“

“Delicious food, great staff, friendly service.“

“Forgot to take mouth-watering pictures before we devoured all dumplings. We came in before 7pm where it was empty inside but the kitchen was bustling. As we waited and ate our food, lots of people came strolling in to pick up and dine-in. It’s a small place but with big flavor. While there is a variety of food, we craved dumplings and this place delivered. We tried the steam and fried pork and chive dumplings and soup dumplings. Fried dumplings made this way is exactly how we remember it in one of our favorite places in Houston. They also sell wholesale frozen dumplings ($15/50 pieces). Can’t wait to make them at home.

Johnson (hope I remembered your name correctly!) took our order and served us. It seems like he’s the boss/owner as he made sure all dishes were to perfection. If it wasn’t good, he didn’t serve it. He also recognizes the locals who come in often and acknowledges them by name. It’s nice to have that in the area. Thank you!“

“I came to this restaurant last month to order takeout, and the young man at the front desk was very enthusiastic in introducing the menu. When he found out it was my partner’s birthday, he added a free dessert to my order and wished him a happy birthday. It was truly sweet!!!“

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

“I've been to a lot of hotpot restaurants in the city. BeiJin Hotpot is a very average hotpot place. It's good, but hotpot is always good. Nothing exceptional for the price. The meat was good, maybe if we ordered different types of meat we would've had a better experience. There's nothing wrong with our dinner; we were just a bit disappointed. All in all, for the price range there are better places to go to.“
