50 Best Chinese Restaurants near North Merrick

“I've had my share of Chinese food some good some bad and some in between. This place..... amazing!!! It starts with the polite and positive vibes you get when you call to place an order. Then you go there to pick it up (if you are not getting a delivery) and the place is immaculate. So clean and well kept and the atmosphere and energy is consistent with the phone call. They pay attention to detail, get your order right, and the outcome is a satisfied customer. After the first two times ordering food here I was afraid to go again. Thought they were definitely on course to mess something up. Nope, this place is the real deal!!!!“

“The food was great no complaints at all but I ordered twice in person & twice online The service was good. While ordering online They stated there was no more shrimp rolls.. I was surprised but They gave me a egg roll for free with all of my orders. I don’t know if that was apart of the meal but I am thankful for that. If you’re wondering what I ordered It was (Boneless spare rib tips with pork & shrimp fried rice. 10/10 )“

“I recently visited this establishment for takeout. The kind lady assisted me in selecting which dumplings to order. The staff members were all very pleasant. While I was waiting for my order to be prepared, I was offered some complimentary snacks, which were quite delicious. There was a minor issue with their steamer, which caused a slight delay in my order. The lady apologized and offered me additional snacks to sample. After a few extra minutes, my order was completed, and I brought the food home. The meal was a great success, and my family thoroughly enjoyed every dumpling I had ordered. I certainly plan on returning in the future.“

“Walking into Sakana feels like stepping into a secret you can’t wait to share. The sushi is ridiculously fresh. Salmon that melts, rolls that don’t need to be drowned in sauce, just pure flavor in every bite.

The vibe? Spot on. When I walk in, I am welcomed like I am a part of the family. Whether you’re on a date, out with friends, or treating yourself (coming alone is such a vibe btw), it works every time.

And the staff—welcoming without trying too hard. They actually see you, which makes the whole experience flow even smoother.

Bottom line: Sakana doesn’t just serve delicious Asian cuisine, they spoil you and you won't want any other sushi place after. Don’t blame me if you get hooked after one visit but leave my table free lol. 😉“

“Truly enjoyed this food. No good taste then the stomach ache feeling. The food was enjoyable. The garlic sauce is a little lighter in color than what I'm use to seeing, but the taste was pleasing. Ordered the Quart size Beef Egg Foo young, beef in garlic sauce, vegetable lo mein, sesame chicken and received a general Tsos also.“

“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.“

“That food is delicious inexpensive and filling… staff is amazing and place is clean“

“Absolutely delicious fresh cooked food. They are very welcoming when you go there. I recommend the chicken lo mein, dumplings, etc. Honestly the food is delicious 😋.“

“Best Chinese restaurant in the area ! Food Excellent! Service is super !“

“This mogu location is excellent!! Everytime we go here the food and service are top notch. In our most recent visit, Brian took our order and assisted us, and as per usual for mogu staff, he was friendly, awesome, and attentive! We will definitely be back.“

“The food is here is by far one of the more reliable places to get Asian Cuisine. The food is not overly fried or heavily seasoned. We come here occasionally after the dog park visit, and we have yet to be disappointed. The wonton soup is a must have, better than anywhere else I have tried. The prices are also very good. Normally I have something criticizing to say but I genuinely appreciate this place for a cheat night. You won’t feel guilty with the fun of take out. The place is small and there isn’t anywhere to eat if you wanted. The customer service is good, however you will need to wait in your car because there isn’t much room to wait inside and no where to sit. Give it a try. Photo is my wife pounding down one of their egg rolls because she can’t wait till we get home (Not oily at all). As healthy as Chinese food can probably get in NYC.“

“Excellent, quality and decent prices for a Hakka restaurant. Recommend to use petalmail.com“

“Authentic Chinese cuisine with savory flavors and wonderful service with detailed descriptions of the preparation and seasonings of the dishes 👍“

“Absolutely fresh and delicious non-greasy Asian infuse delicious food. Everything I ate or delicious can’t wait to go back again.“

“What long island lacks is a truly clean (flavor) and delicious Chinese food spot. Been living in nassau for over 20 years i’ve tried all the chinese food spots. But this one right here? The best.

I may be a bit biased here. But I dislike when chinese food places use old oil and drench everything in grease. Asian house has clean flavor, where you can actually taste the ingredients (from the vegetable fried rice). One thing that I always get from chinese food spots to know their quality is by ordering their shrimp toast. Every other spot i’ve been to near by will serve a burnt, nearly black, old grease filled shrimp toast. But at Asian house, they served me a golden brown shrimp toast where the oil tasted fresh and i can actually taste the shrimp.

I truly have found my chinese food spot for good.“

“We had such a great experience at O mandarin Restaurant! The service was excellent and our waitress was absolutely amazing, so friendly, attentive, and on top of everything. The food was delicious and full of flavor, and every dish came out fresh and perfectly prepared. We truly enjoyed our visit and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!“

“My eldest son started going to Panda about two weeks ago & has continued to go a few times p/ week since then! I tried his boneless spare ribs and love it! Decided to go today on my own, just simple wings and ridged french fries and I must say, since moving here to Freeport from Brooklyn, this is definitely the closest to what I used to get in terms of taste quality. I also want to add that they were absolutely courteous and polite from the moment I called to place and order by phone, up until my pick up… I’ll definitely try other items from Panda.“

“Excellent food friendly service … whole fish dinner was amazing !!!“

“I eat Chinese food at least once a week. I have been to several in the area and after picking up my food today I will only eat Chinese from king House Chinese Kitchen! Egg Drop soup is fantastic. Typically Ihave to add salt and pepper. The soup here is awesome with no seasoning help. The house lomein ingredients were as fresh as you can get. The chicken was flavorful and spring was tasty! I am so glad I found you today!“

“Wow! Usually I’m not impressed with the quality of AYCE food. But this place was different. The same owner as The One Sushi 🍣 in Amityville which serves good food. This place charges $35 for all you can eat! What a deal. They charge extra for Crab 🦀 Boil and for Sashimi. But still a great bargain for quality food. Give this place a try before it gets too crowded, prices go up, and the quality goes down. 😀. Card payment is accepted. We will definitely be going back.“

“Having grown up in Westbury, I have frequented this establishment throughout my life. As an adult, I consider this restaurant my cherished indulgence. The duck, in particular, is consistently well-marinated and exquisite. The cuisine consistently receives an excellent rating.“

“The overall greatest restaurant for this type of food. My girlfriend and I have been going here since we started dating last year, and without fail has been the most phenomenal food we’ve ever eaten. Overall, it’s been truly a wonderful experience and I recommend to everybody in the mood for some authentic Chinese food. The people assisting us were so friendly and kind, and the food was made in 5 minutes or less. So amazing!“

“I have been going here forever!!! I adore this place. The food is always so fresh and good! They have cut their hours down to Wednesday to Saturday but well worth the wait. My favorite entree is sesame chicken but everything I’ve ever had here is super good!“

“Gas food and great service! Super nice people that helped us pick out their most popular dishes! The pork spare ribs and general tsos chicken were my favorite! The chicken wasn’t too bready and gave a lot of meat! Also fairly priced! Would come again“

“as a American Asian, specifically Chinese, this is the only place I enjoy coming to buy one of my favorite simple dishes egg fried rice. being in highschool and knowing money is a big issue this place has a good price and great portion sizes for food and the food always is generally good :) for Americanized Chinese I love coming here to buy egg fried rice.

Kid-friendliness: they are kind towards all the high schoolers who come in for lunch“

“This place is a hidden gem!! Incredible mouth watering food! I've tried over 8 Chinese food places near by and nothing compares. Outstanding food and quick customer service. The chicken & Broccoli is to die for and their sesame chicken is cooked to perfection.“

“went for lunch, had ssen the restaurant in passing in the shopping center, my wife looked in and commented on how bright and clean the plcae looked, so we tried it-
so glad we did, great service, good foor and attentive help.
we both had vegetable chow fun-one of us is VEGAN & the other GF-worked for both of us, fresh, tasty, really good
would recommennd trying this to anyone...“

“Totally worth the trip I djayed there and even though it wasn’t my party they were warm and welcoming they made sure I ate and my palate was right…good staff and great place“

“I was there today for the first time and let me tell you about the curry samosas. They are delicious. I ate them so fast that I burnt my upper palate, lol! It was really really good with that sweet chilly sauce. I might just go back tomorrow to try more stuff.“

“This is an unassuming little restaurant with excellent food. Their orange chicken is unusually good, with a nice balance of sweet and spicy, and a texture that is crispy rather than doughy. Another favorite of mine is Singapore chow mei fun- a moderately spicy noodle dish with satisfying full flavor, not just heat.“

“So happy to find authentic Yunnan rice noodles here on Long Island! The food at Dengji Yunnan Rice Noodle is delicious — rich broth, chewy noodles, and generous portions. The price is very reasonable, and the service is friendly. Definitely one of my new favorite spots!“

“Visiting a friend in the area and decided to stop and try this restaurant, honestly what a nice restaurant, the service of the employees is excellent, the food so delicious and fresh made, will de definitely coming Ann’s recommend it to anyone looking for a good lunch / meal“

“We catered a great lunch for 15 which included Gen Tso Chicken, chicken with mixed. Veggies, beef lo mein, fried rice , egg rolls and spare ribs- everyone loved it! The ingredients were so fresh, very high quality meats and they were cooked perfectly. It was less than $20 pp and so much leftover that they all took some home. I very highly recommend Ming’s!“

“I ordered through DoorDash. Quart of sweet n sour chicken. Fried dumpling App. First the chicken was crunchy and not overly breaded. The batter did NOT taste greasy. Their was so much that they couldn't close the bucket! OUTSTANDING!The sauce was very tasty. The only thing missing was the cherry and pineapple chunk.The fried dumpling were delicious. The mystery meat inside was not off putting in anyway. The dipping sauce was not just a container of soy sauce but actual sauce with real ginger and other spices! And I got two! I hope this place doesn't tank. Best Chinese I have had in years.“

“Ordered Wonton Soup Hot sour Soup and vegetable Lo mein with house mustard and they were all delicious. I think it may have been the daughter who answered the phone and was there when I picked up my order she looked straight at me with a welcoming smile. It was very refreshing and I think the other woman may have been her mother greeted me also very refreshing. I’ve been here on and off since they have been here and have never been disappointed“

“I want to introduce everybody to my brand new most favorite restaurant ever !!!! let me tell you Iam a pretty difficult customer when it comes to good food and getting what I want from restaurants. t is a rarity that l ever give a five star rating and a written review as well. But this restaurant over and beyond deserves it. First of all,I-don't only just order food but I have a lot of additional side bars like, “I need hoisting sauce with this order.""Pease add a lot of peanut sauce and then some peanut sauce on the side, but make sure the peanut sauce is not too sweet.'would you mind-adding some shiitakemushrooms and extra fried onions to my fried rice.""By the way, please send some hot oil, about four different containers of it please.Do you know they complied to my every wish. They sent me so much duck sauce, (homemade) soy scruce and mustard. that I could probably sell it in a yard sale. As far as hoisin sauce and hot oil, we’ll I still have some and it’s been a good while. They sent me a freezer bag full of soy sauce , duck sauce and mustard packets which I think I’ll have for a few years. They added the onions and shiitake mushrooms just as I asked for.But more importantly, the food impeccable. I can not complainabout about anything. If you knew me, you would not believe it because I can always find something to complain about.But I always know how to complement and brag about something when it is deserving, and Far Sing is absolutely deserving, I can't speak enough about it!!!!And again, if you knew me you would not believe these words are coming out of my mouth and onto this review.As you probably can surmise, I am a talker. Do yourself a favor and check this restaurant out for yourself!!!You won't be disappointed .!!!!! You can thank me later.?“

“I have been coming to this restaurant since I was a baby, so I might be a little biased. But this restaurant is the BEST. Their bourbon chicken never disappoints. It’s sweet, tangy, and delicious. Coupled with their sides of rice and beans, it is amazing.

Also, the food is very cheap. One meal can cost only 11 dollars, and for the amount of food that comes with it, it’s a great deal.

In addition, the lady who runs this restaurant is extremely nice. She recognizes me and my family every time we go, even saying my name.

I love this woman. I love this restaurant. I really don’t understand the negative reviews, the restaurant is great.“

“I ordered the food on my way home from work and the food was AT MY DOOR STEP when I got home. It was still hot and honestly so convenient to not cook after work for the family! Food was incredibly affordable for feeding my whole family of 6. My favorite was their wonton soup, sesame chicken, and pork fried rice. The ribs were also delicious! I highly recommend this restaurant for all the moms that don’t want to cook and still want to eat good! I definitely will be coming back. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!!! They are also on uber eats and grubhub too!!!!!“

“General Tso Chicken - 9.5/10. Crispy, light sauce, not too sweet, not much corn starch which made the sauce liquidity and bottom chicken soggy. Still very delicious.Curry chicken. 10/10. Superb cooking technique, chicken very tender, veggies blanched just right. Flawless execution. Must order.Beef with garlic sauce 9.5/10. Beef very tender, cooking technique very well. Broccoli slightly over blanched, but still crunchy, rest of veggies cooked well. The negative 1/2 pt is for too much red food coloring dye, it’s a bit too much.This place rates a solid 4.8/5.0. Very impressed and wish it was closer. 25 min drive away.“

“If you’re looking for the most delicious Asian cuisine & sushi and have never been to Sakura, you don’t know what you are missing! This is our favorite place for dinner, take out & party platters for special occasions. Their food is always a work of art & so yummy! Whether you order ala carte or take advantage of their all you can eat menu, you will leave happily satisfied, every single time!“

“From the moment you walk into this place, you can feel the warm and inviting atmosphere. The restaurant is beautifully decorated, and the staff is incredibly friendly. The food is absolutely delicious, with a wide variety of options to choose from.“

“ugh i love this place so much!!! My boyfriend and I have gone to this place a few times now, and are always blown away by the delicious food, great prices, and their lovely and generous staff!! I personally love their sesame chicken and anything with the roast pork!!! 11/10 recommend this place, and will definitely be telling my whole family about it!!“

“Cheapest in price but not in quality! Food isn’t greasy like other places, and it’s the least expensive Chinese takeout I’ve found in the area. Not to mention there’s only a $10 minimum for delivery when other places are at least $15“

“This lovely, warm restaurant on a cold night satisfies everyone and has superb food, great service, and you never leave hungry. It's owner is on site and is always checking on her customers. Make a reservation as it gets very busy, and the parking is valet because it's limited. However I promise you that you won't be disappointed. It is a bit more expensive than your local take out restaurant, but the crispy shredded beef is phenomenal, the chicken and string beans had so much flavor, along with a chicken and broccoli dish. The soups and appetizers are great for the table. We'll be back soon!“

“First time ordering from Yummy Gyro and I was very happy. Everything was delicious. Even my daughters who are super picky enjoyed the food. Will definitely be ordering again.“

“I have my food delivered! The delivery guys are always very nice and polite. I order sesame chicken white meat and it is the best sesame chicken that I’ve ever had once in a while. I might get a little Tough piece. But lately it’s been delicious. I love it. Their eggrolls forget it. They’re the best. They are so fresh and they don’t have like an aftertaste to them. I always order an extra one for lunch the next day. I can’t get enough for their sesame chicken, white meat!!! 💛“

“I love the hot and sour soup. It's one of those dishes that I could could eat year round. It doesn't matter if it's- 10⁰ or 110⁰F. I want it in my belly!!! also best chicken nuggets in town for the picky eaters!“

“I was so surprise by the flavor of this food. I’ve tried many different Chinese restaurants but this place was the best. The rice actually has a lot of flavor which is so rare. The food was really good and if I’m in the area I will purchase again. Plus the restaurant was clean ?“

“Absolutely Amazing Experience!

This restaurant is a hidden gem! From the moment we walked in, the warm ambiance and friendly staff set the tone for a fantastic meal. The menu is packed with authentic Chinese dishes, and everything we tried was bursting with flavor. The Kung Pao Chicken was perfectly spiced, and the dumplings were the best I’ve ever had—fresh, juicy, and so satisfying!

The portions are generous, and the presentation is beautiful. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed, and their recommendations were spot on. You can tell they take pride in what they do.

If you’re craving incredible Chinese cuisine, look no further. This place deserves all the praise and then some. We can’t wait to come back!

Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a true taste of China! 🥢🍜

Vegetarian options: Vegetarian food, very good“
