50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Saint James

“This place is solid. The food is excellent all the time regardless of take-out, delivery, or dine in. Staff is professional and friendly and they always get the order exactly right. We've tried other places and they just don't compare!“

“Loved our dinner last night! Even though the restaurant was very crowded the food and service were very good. We were also treated to dancing dragons for the lunar new year! It was so much fun! Great old school Chinese restaurant with table cloths and serving carts. Highly recommend!“

“Don’t listen to these bone head losers with their one star reviews. I’ve been eating here for 2 years, and every time I order it’s 5 stars. They make some of the best boneless spare ribs I’ve ever had!! And anyone who has eaten Chinese outside of Long Island knows that this is top tier.“

“Only one visit so far so I will adjust if need be. Fried rice was top tier for the area. So was the sesame chicken and the lo mein. The wonton soup was pretty standard but the wonton meat was really good. I think it was ginger in there that made them stand out. My only complaint was the large boneless spareribs at 18$ were very fatty. Could have been the batch so I won’t hold that against them unless it happens again.“

“Absolutely delicious, my friend and I came in before a movie and omgosh I can't wait to come back! I had the mei fun and the general tso's chicken, and my friend had lo mein and wonton soup. We're both still talking about it. Soo yummy, so fresh and such a wonderful atmosphere!“

“I came here for lunch and ordered the sesame chicken with a side of white rice along with the spring rolls The sesame chicken was delicious and the rice paired with it perfect The spring rolls were a bit over-fried which gave them a slightly bitter taste but they were still decent. The service was great the staff member who helped me was very friendly and attentive The only downside was that they don’t offer any dessert OverallI had a good experience and would come back“

“Probably the best Chinese food I’ve ever tasted. Not fried garbage ( hard and greasy ) This was moist and flavorful.“

“I could not promote a place more. They’re absolutely incredible. The quality of their food is the best. I know the owners since I’m a kid…. What a wonderful, hard working, dedicated, kind family & member of the community. At this point I’ve gotten easily over 100 orders over the years… & it’s crazy but I don’t they EVER Messed up my order. Always such a quick easy joyful experience when I come in. & if you live in Nesconset… you know.. no Chinese in miles comes close to this. Dragon is the best“

“If you live in the ronkonama/Holbrook area this is the best Chinese food! Super flavorful without being overly salty. Everything was amazing ! Wonton soup, the brown rice is a sleeper great rice, chicken lo mein, egg rolls, and dumplings i ordered were all perfect“

“Top notch sushi, the best prices I have seen for the quality. I’ve been ordering from Kira Sushi since about 2021, their quality has been consistent and their menu prices haven’t raised drastically like everything else does.“

“It is my favorite Chinese take out. I grew up in that neighborhood, then moved away and I still make the trip to visit. Such a beautiful family that runs the restaurant and very attentive. I love the pork fried rice it is my favorite. They are cash only but it is worth it!!“

“first time eating here, and it really was good.“

“So, first off, I judged my review on all categories, although being a new customer I've only gotten take out so far. When I did go in to pick the food up, recently, the atmosphere, was very nice!! Very nice decor, small room, but not too small. Most importantly, the food was AMAZING!!👌Great Walnut Shrimp, mushroom Egg Foo Young,, homemade house mustard👌😉, & Shrimp rolls!! Very authentic Chinese food, and super NICE people too!!!🙏🏻😊“

“Recently moved to this area and decided to try this restaurant, good decision! Delicious food,I had the pineapple fried rice with shrimp, amazing with lots of Large fresh Shrimp,the pork buns were so yummy and the Thai pineapple chicken tasted like something you would have in Hawaii!! Highly recommend you give Mr. Wang a try, you will thank me later…..“

“I recently had such a great dining experience at Splendid Noodle in Stony Brook, New York!

I ordered the roasted duck with hand-cut noodles and extra vegetables, including fresh bok choy, and it was truly an authentic experience from start to finish. One of the coolest parts was being able to watch the chefs through the kitchen as they prepared the noodles—either hand-pulling them or cutting them with a knife right before serving.

The broth was flavorful and incredibly savory without being overpowering or overly salty. On the table, they had homemade chili oil with chili flakes, which was a huge plus for me because I personally love some spice. I added about two spoonfuls, and it gave the dish exactly the kick I was looking for!

The restaurant has that true hole-in-the-wall feel, but don’t let that fool you—this was an amazing meal. I couldn’t even finish the entire bowl, so I ended up taking the rest home and having it as a second meal for dinner later that evening. It still tasted great reheated!

I also have to give them credit for their takeout packaging. I noticed that they pack the noodles separately from the broth, which is such a smart touch. If you’re getting your food delivered or taking it home, the noodles don’t arrive completely saturated and soggy.

The dining area is small, with enough seating for around 8 - 10 families of four, but the establishment was very clean and had charming, authentic details, including the traditional curtains in front of the kitchen entrance.

Overall, I would definitely recommend checking out Splendid Noodle if you’re in the area. Authentic flavors, freshly made noodles, great portions, and thoughtful takeout packaging—it was a fantastic experience!“

“great food and Mai Tai 👌 😋“

“I've been coming here since childhood (when it was called Tofu). The food is always good for a reasonable price. Lots of options for Asian cuisine. Friendly staff. Peaceful atmosphere. Whether alone or with a group of people, there's always something on the menu for everyone.“

“Yum May Chinese Food has been a staple in our community for as long as I can remember. They always have great food at reasonable prices. The staff is super friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. It’s hard to find tasty food of this quality and value. I highly recommend Yum May.“

“The food was excellent! Was great a place like this so close by. Many options, and the manager even came out to greet us and let us know how the food was. Plenty of seating inside and out. In a good area. And amazing for the price (I had a deal). Will come again.“

“Oriental Kitchen is our family’s new favorite Chinese in Suffolk. We recently moved to the area and have been trying to find a decent New York style Chinese spot and last night we found one. Yay! The food was fresh and delicious. We ordered classics like beef broccoli, general tsos, veg dumplings, wonton soup and chicken wings. Wow!! I agree with the other reviews, you can taste the love they put it into the food. Vivian, the young lady at the counter was so warm and friendly. Please please keep the freshness and quality consistent as we will be ordering at least once a week moving forward. Go to Oriental Kitchen. You work regret it.“

“Over the years we have tried all the local spots and this has become our go-to! They know me by name now and know our special order for beef and extra well done eggplant in spicy brown sauce. So dang good! Also, the egg drop soup is one of the only things my picky toddler eats, so he has it for lunch every single day! Great food, delicious, great family that runs the place, clean. Can't ask for more than that!“

“I've ordered from them for over 20 year's, like with anything it has it's ups and downs but overall food is always consistent, people at the restaurant are friendly, delivery driver's all differ, some great others very demanding, but deserving of a 4 star for continually doing trying their best.“

“Everything thing was great !!! Food and service !!“

“Always my favorite! The food is amazing and the people there are wonderful. The husband and wife that own the business always remember my family and I, and they’re always so friendly and personable! Highly recommend their food, especially lo mein, sesame chicken, and boneless ribs (which never ever ever have any fat on them)! Love you guys.“

“A really tasty General tso’s chicken coupled with a shrimp roll which i forgot to take a photo of. The food was super hot and the sauce was just the right amount of sweet however i should have asked for a bit more spice. The white rice was soft and fluffy.“

“Don’t listen to the haters, this is your classic hole in the Wall Chinese spot with top tier general tsos and solid service, sure they’re the aggressive type of Chinese
“WHAT YOU WANT”
“TEN MINUTE”
“ YOU WANT DERIVERY OR PICK UP”
But this is a good clean place and they’re fast“

“Hands down the BEST chinese/szechuan restaurant in Long Island. I've been to many restaurants in Flushing and Manhattan and I gotta say that Spice Workshops food is even better than some of those restaurants. The flavor is very authentic to what szechuan food is suppose to be. My recommendation for ordering:

- Fish on spicy oil
- Shredded pig feet with peppers
- Cabbage
- Sweet and sour fried crispy pork
- Hunan beef with green peppers

Free rice and tea refills. Price is very reasonable. Service is outstanding. Highly recommended!“

“Definitely 5 stars 👍👍👍👍👍👍“

“I have been eating their food, either sit down or take out, ever since I moved out to ronkonkoma from massapequa 14 years ago. And I have to admit, i got so lucky. Finding them. Their food is fantastic, and I have been eating Japanese for 26 years, i would know by now what is good.. They are the best ive ever had. And they are great people. 👍“

“Wing Wah Kitchen's sesame chicken was a real treat! The chicken was very tasty, and the fluffy white rice was the perfect accompaniment. It definitely hit the spot for a Chinese food craving. While the food was enjoyable, the establishment itself could benefit from some attention to cleanliness and maintenance. A little sprucing up would go a long way in making the dining environment feel more welcoming and inviting.“

“fantastic experience at this Chinese restaurant. The food quality was top notch with fresh ingredients and rich flavors in every bite. The taste was absolutely delicious with each dish perfectly seasoned. Portions were generous offering great value for the price. This will be my go to Chinese spot in Kings Park from now on. Highly recommend if you're looking for a satisfying and flavorful meal.“

“Been a customer since moved to Brentwood in the 80's the food and service has always been fantastic.

Vegetarian options: Vegetarian menu is definitely a go to

Dietary restrictions: Steamed anything is super fresh and delicious.“

“Good traditional breakfast items snd delicious entrees and dumplings. The flavors are authentic and the ingredients are high quality“

“Really love this place..wish they delivered..always fresh..real fried rice not yellow rice! Fresh fried wide noodles amazing! Homemade duck sauce is a MUST! Everything we have ordered has been great, 1 time tried something new was a little too fried for my taste but it wasn't bad. Service is always friendly and helpful! Really sweet hard working people!“

“Woohoo. Ordered roast pork egg foo young along with beef lomein, chicken and broccoli, and general tso chicken....was a triple hit....delicious isn't enough ....was fabulous! We loved everything we ordered. Next time lobster cantonese and shrimp with lobster sauce.....“

“If you want Delicious Food You Must come to Ming's House!!

We will be coming back for sure! We need to try the Ramen and the Pho next time 🍜
Thank You!!“

“New owners, great food and service. Nice atmosphere.“

“5-star atmosphere for this take-out only Chinese restaurant because it’s the cleanest I have ever been in! Spotless!!“

“This place is amazing! I’ve been going to that restaurant for years. The food is fresh tasting and delicious. I love having extra pork pieces in my pork fried rice so they accommodate me with a small container with extra pork pieces for a small price! If you’re new to the area or just looking for a new spot I highly recommend No 1 Chinese in Centereach NY!“

“I was quite happy to happen upon this place as I was visiting a nearby antique store. I really don't think they need my accolades as they seem to be a very well respected Chinese restaurant. I live in flushing so of course that would be a lot of competition to meet my expectations regarding Chinese food

I ordered the shrimp dumpling noodle soup with bok choy. The broth was tasty and delicious! The handmade shrimp dumplings were very generously loaded with shrimp. I ordered extra bok choy and a side of chili oil. This was a perfect lunch and I recommend it highly!“

“Best Chinese food ever. Love their Shrimp & Broccoli..Perfect! Sauce delicious. Great egg drop soup & Chicken Noodle soup..Steamed Chicken Dumplings are delish.!! Nice friendly people..Been going here for years..My favorite place ever...Anything you order is delicious...😋😋 Can call an order in..ENJOY!“

“THE FOOD IS AMAZING AND PLENTIFUL. THE DELIVERY WAS RIGHT ON TIME. THE ONLY THING I WOULD HAVE LIKED FOR THEM TO SEND WAS A MENU. I WILL BE USING THEM ALL THE TIME. THE BEST I HAVE HAD IN ALONG TIME.“

“From the Roast Pork noodle soup to the steamed dumplings and chicken lo mein - everything was hot, fresh and delicious!“

“The BEST dim sum on Long Island! Very accommodating when placing phone orders. Food is always fresh and hot and delicious.“

“Great local Chinese restaurant with large portions and great prices, especially lunch specials. The owners and staff are very friendly, and service is quick, even if you decide to order at the place and take out. Love their brown and garlic sauce, which I compare regularly amongst local Chinese places. Food is always hot and the place is very clean, though I do wish that they had some sit down tables. Will continue to visit.

Vegetarian options: Plenty

Dietary restrictions: Options

Parking: Free parking lot.

Kid-friendliness: Kid-friendly

Wheelchair accessibility: First floor with ramp access.“

“Tonight was the first night I’ve ever ordered from this restaurant March 4, 2026. I even had to call the restaurant after I finished eating to just let them know. It’s the best Chinese food I’ve ever had here on the island. It was fantastic.“

“This is the best Chinese food I've had in a while! Ordered on my way home from work, picked it up hot and fresh! Fried wontons were crispy and delicious, chicken and broccoli was tasty and the roast pork fried rice hit the spot. The price was right, plenty of food for left overs. The service was with a smile as well. I will order again and again from this place, grabbed a menu on my way out so I can try more of their delicious fare. Would recommend this place for authentic Chinese food made fresh and delicious!“

“I have ate at a couple of Chinese restaurants in the area. But this restaurant tops all the rest. The food tastes fresh. Their customer service is excellent. I moved out of the area but I still drive the distance for good Chinese food.😋🫶🏽“

“First time here, I work next door. Had takeout and it was VERY good! Sesame chicken dinner, extra spicey exactly how I wanted it. Even the leftovers the next day were still just as delicious! The interior isn't what you expect from a Chinese takeout restaurant but I thinks it's quiet refreshing because it's different.
Come check them out!“

“Excellent food! We will be regulars.“
