21 Best Chinese Restaurants in Long Island City

“Everything was super delicious! 5 star for the food! We tried the mapo tofu, Lao Gan Ma chicken, fried prawn with crispy chili, and the la zi ji. We absolutely loved everything, so flavorful and satisfying. Super recommended! We will definitely be back to try the Peking duck next time!“

“Me and my friends ate dinner here. The food was perfect for warming up with the unnaturally cold Spring day! We got the duck with ginger, mapo tofu, and fried rice. Like the other posts, the price is a little bit on the higher end. However, the atmosphere of the restaurant was nice, the staffs were very polite and attentive, and there was almost no wait time. Will definitely come back if we are near the area again.“

“They do traditional Chinese food and Western Chinese food, and they do all of it really well. We are fans of the general tso chicken, mapo tofu, whole steamed fish, dry pot pork and cabbage, beef lo mein noodles and fried rice. The meat they serve with the noodles were plenty for a single serving. Love a good Asian restaurant that serves hot tea on the house too. I’d come back for the steamed fish too instead of trekking to flushing for it. Ambiance is subtle with a few statues and huge waterfall. We did a lot of deliveries there and decided to dine in and it seems like a quaint place for dinner with wood decor and a huge tree too. Service is so friendly. The pig steamed bun were very good too, not too sweet, the way we like it. Highly recommend for a nice affordable Chinese cuisine.“

“Superb dining experience! I was provided a single table for myself without any hassle. The duck was crispy, generous portions, and the rice was well-cooked. I really favored the golden chopsticks and utensils. I asked to keep them but was told no, unfortunately. My only complaint was that it look nearly 25 minutes for the preparation of my meal.“

“Pretty solid jianbing — a touch on the saltier side but the chili crisp they use is super savory. Great for a quick breakfast or snack. Online order for pickup is also available.

Cash only — or they have Zelle/Venmo QR codes to scan. $9.75 (as of May 2026) for a plain jianbing, with extra toppings available.“

“This is a great restaurant. The owner and staff are very kind and serve amazing dishes. I could definitely taste my beef noodle soup was made with fresh ingredient and homemade noodles. Everything was perfectly spiced. Will definitely come here more often.“

“Definitely my go-to spot for the special sauerkraut soup. The spice level is just right—not too mild, not overpowering—and the broth is rich and flavorful. The setting is very casual, which makes it easy to just drop in and enjoy a comforting meal. They even have a little robot helping with the service, which is a fun and cute touch.“

“Saw a lot of unfriendly reviews, decided to leave one as someone born and raised in Northwest China. The noodles and buns so flavorful, meat is fresh and tender. The food here is soul food for me, bringing me back to my childhood. If anyone complaining it’s too spicy or oily, they’ve never had authentic Northwestern Chinese food before.“

“Great food,great atmosphere As same industry we are take them as role models“

“My partner and I were in the neighborhood and got really excited when we saw a soup dumpling spot around the corner.
We ordered the pork xiao long bao and the pork and crab xiao long bao, both were super fresh and delicious, especially for the price (~$18 for both). We eat a lot of XLB and Asian food in general, so trust us when we say it’s worth checking out!
The staff are really kind, honest, and seem genuinely hardworking.
I definitely recommend trying this place at least once if you get the chance, whether you’re stopping in or ordering on a food app. We’ll definitely be coming back :) Excited to try their other dishes!“

“Really enjoyed the takeout I ordered for delivery. The Royal Greens Salads are huge!!! I would say they're twice as big as other salads chains. I wish it was easier though to know the dietary info for the salad dressings as I could not tell which ones were vegan. I love that you can choose your own protein and swap some of the toppings or build your own. I also got the green tofu curry dish from SriPraPhai as well. The sauce was incredibly flavor and I liked the amount of kick it had. It was spicy but not too spicy for me atleast. I do wish it had more tofu in it though as it felt very sauce heavy. I would order takeout from here again especially if I was getting food with someone who wanted something different then me. I appreciate the free delivery and the amazing portion sizes. It's nice to be able to order multiple cuisines as well.“

“We got the Kung Pao chicken and the Chongqing chicken. They were both fantastic! The food was packaged very well and came with rice and was extremely tasty. It also came in a large quantity. We're definitely gonna order from here again.“

“Great takeaway restaurant
Impeccable service, very good food
Copious
We had the fried chicken with fried rice.
We were staying at the hotel next door and it's a great place for dinner.

Vegetarian options: Fried vegetables, rice“

“Dun Huang is a pretty regular spot for us. The noodles have an exquisite pairing with the broth and toppings. The broth absorbs the umami flavor of the meat, and the noodles have an amazing texture. The lamb skewers are easy to chew and generously seasoned with spices, creating a spicy explosion in your mouth. For desert we tried the sticky rice for the first time and it did not disappoint. The flavor was sweet but not too sweet, and the fillings are super delicious as well. Super good overall!“

“I order sashimi weekly and Win Shing has become my “go-to” takeout restaurant for sushi. The quality of their fish & its preparation is excellent and the portions are generous. Their delivery is incredibly fast and they offer a great discount on Seamless of $10 off for large orders. Highly recommend.“

“Bought some delicious pork and chive dumplings after work the other day. Since there was only one worker making the food and taking orders, I did have to wait but it was a nice day and I didn’t mind. Will be going again and would recommend.“

“Your typical Chinese small eat in takeout.
Chicken fried rice had lots of chicken and egg rolls were delicious.
Must be that different Chinese cultures have different versions of fried rice.
This rice has a high moisture content and the rice is yellow but it was still delicious.“

“Best American-style Chinese food in the area, full stop. PERFECT EGGROLLS. Excellent pork fried wontons and general tsao's chicken and wonton soup. I only go here even though it is several subway stops away. It tastes exactly as you hope it will, texture, flavors, just great!“

“Not all locations are the same, so I wanted to let people know this is a great one! Staff is kind and the food is always fresh and delicious. My pickup order was a little delayed and Rojina was extremely kind and made sure to to tell me what was happening while I waited! Thanks rojina!!“
