30 Best Chinese Restaurants in Syracuse

“Our experience was wonderful, mainly because of our waitress Ella. She was attentive and had plenty of delicious recommendations. She’s been our waitress several times now and never disappoints. Our food came out quickly and was perfect. I ordered the large hot and sour soup and ate the entire thing. We’ll be back.“

“Our first time dining here will NOT be our last , food came fast hot and fresh , everything was a great experience and that is very hard to find these days so I will definitely be going back next time I'm in Syracuse, thank you to the staff“

“There is a tried and true hand making this dim sum. We had the bao bun steak and cheese, pork shrimp shumai and chicken dumplings. The dumplings were seasoned and flavored to perfection and the Chow Mei Fun was delicate and not too heavy. Highly recommend this place!“

“cannot say enough good things about China Cafe! The lady working there was so kind and amazing—she made us feel so welcome right away.As for the food, it was incredible! Everything was so fresh and delicious, and the fried rice was absolutely amazing. A perfect 10 out of 10 experience. I will definitely be coming back again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for great Chinese food and wonderful service!“

“I’ve tried a LOT of different places around Syracuse in look for good Crab Ragoons & Lo Main and this place is definitely the best. Generous in portions, good amount of veggies in the lo main and the Rangoons aren’t mostly bread/crust!! Highly recommend!!“

“I wish you could do half stars because I would give Chang Jiang 3.5. We would go here soooo often back then and they really were amazing. Unfortunately the food hasn't been as good in a while and although we rarely order food from here, I still respect the OGs“

“Having been to the Lavish Mediterranean restaurant more than a few times now, I must say that I have enjoyed every meal that I have had out of the wide variety of fine quality of delicious dishes on their menu and the generous portions that they serve. Besides the delicious food, the polite and caring staff, the clean and well-lit environment, and the comfortable seating are an added plus. I would recommend this restaurant to all, and am fairly sure that future visits there will be desired.“

“The best Chinese food I have ever had to be completely honest. The food was so rich and flavorful. It tastes like care was put into this kitchen. The food does come out one dish at a time and not all at once like the average restaurant but we shared every dish anyway. We'll worth the visit.“

“The food is delicious and the service is spectacular. Showed up right as they opened in the middle of the week and the owner, who doesn't speak English, did his very best to ensure he was clear on what I wanted, made my food to go as I had asked, and offered me and my infant son an umbrella using his phone to translate so we didn't get wet in the rain. While I paid he helped keep an eye on my busy little man and made sure he was secure while I had one hand occupied.

I make time to eat here every time I'm in the city and I look forward to it. Best fried rice I have ever had. Their usual server does speak English btw, but her not being there did not diminish the service.“

“If you’re looking for a reliable, go-to spot for classic Chinese cuisine, Fortune Hawaii in Syracuse/Dewitt never fails to deliver. From flavorful favorites like General Tso’s chicken, dumplings, and crab rangoon to their combo specials, every dish arrives fresh, hot, and packed with authentic taste. The portions are consistently generous, the pricing is budget-friendly, and the service is always fast and friendly. It’s a neighborhood gem that satisfies every craving and keeps you coming back for more!“

“Typical take out layout so atmosphere is of that style. But their food is the best Asian take out in town always fresh, fast, & correct... And I'm a pain in the ass and always special order with changes. They never get it wrong even when packed and super busy“

“I’ve been going in and out of there for years and they are so outstanding but I haven’t had a good meal for over a week so I got the special chow mein fun oh my God that beat my expectations outstanding this family runs a fine business“

“We love it here !!!! Go quite often . The food is almost always 100% good . Love the staff . Always friendly“

“The best Chinese take out in Syracuse city!! I’ve been ordering food from here over 12 years and they have not disappointed me ever!

Parking: Parking is very easy and plenty accessibility

Wheelchair accessibility: They have parking that allows a wheelchair to enter easily“

“First time having food from this restaurant. As a person that doesn't eat meat it had some good options. I had the garlic mushrooms over rice with vegetable spring rolls. The spring rolls were very soggy so I only took one bite. But the rest of the food was pretty good.“

“The best Chinese food around! So many delicious gluten free options. Highly recommend.“

“All these negative reviews are absurd! My meal was fantastic! Piping hot. Delicious and great portions. Deserves the full 5 stars. No question. Granted it’s Chinese food so keep that in mind it’s not wagyu steak or somethin but on a scale for local Chinese it’s a 5.“

“I get food from here just about every other Monday and I love it. The food is always good, it’s hot, I can call ahead and pick it up in 10-15 mins without ever having to wait. The workers are always very friendly. I’m grateful this place exists! It is one of my top three local Chinese spots! Don’t overlook it just because of the neighborhood it’s in, I’ve never had any issue there.“

“Just moved to the area and was told this was the best take-out. Compared to other Chinese places, the price was a better value and it tasted fresher. I think I will make this part of my Friday night post-workout ritual. The Sweet and Sour chicken with a side of fries and wings for twenty bucks lasts like two meals, I can bring the extra to work. Very good place. Take-out only.“

“Unlike other Chinese food restaurants, China House has a website. I love being able to see what I order and how much I am going to pay for it. The food was ready when my confirmation text told me it would be and loved that I was able to pay online. Upon pick up, I was greeted with a friendly smile from the cashier. And the food is like no other...FRESH! Not only was everything delicious, everything tasted fresh and freshly cooked with servings big enough for leftovers. Best Chinese restaurant around...worth the 15 minute drive even when there is a restaurant 2 minutes from my home.“

“I have been ordering from China Cafe for years!! This is easily my favorite place to go to for a quick and delicious meal. They are very family orient (most times you will see the kids at one of the tables or the family enjoying a meal together). This place is busy, but you would never notice. The deliveries are very quick.“

“We had a thoroughly joyful family dinner at Yang Di Chun BBQ today! We felt so lucky finding open booth seating right away because it was buzzing. The traditional cumin lamb skewers were extraordinarily flavorful, while savory grilled beef sticks, garlic eggplant, crispy chicken wings, and cold drinks hit the spot completely. Big delicious Chinese barbecue portions pleased everyone. Friendly staff made our day!“

“This is one of the cleanest Chinese restaurants I have ever been to I mean it's very dated inside but all of the counters are clean all of the grills and pans look clean. There isn't food splattered all over and there food is very good. Only Chinese place in town that hasn't given me an upset stomach.“

“An Absolute Gem
I always look forward to ordering from Spring Chinese, especially because of the incredible woman who runs the kitchen. She is an exceptionally talented chef, and her chicken is always cooked to absolute perfection every single time she makes it.

Beyond the amazing savory sesame chicken she also makes the best donuts around—always served completely warm, fresh, and delicious. She is so lovely and kind on the phone when taking orders, the delivery arrives super fast, and she even went above and beyond to bring an order directly to me herself once.

If you want fantastic food and lightning-fast delivery this is the place.“

“Mr. Stirfry is my hands down favorite place for Chinese food in New York. I KNOW that's an incredibly big statement but I stand by it. I ADORE the vegan options, I LOVE the egg rolls, and every single person that works there is so wonderful. Keep up the great work and I cannot wait to have some more general tso's tofu. I love you guys <3“

“This is a family-owned and operated restaurant that is definitely worth a try! We found the food to be hot, fresh and tasty. Good portion size for the price and the service is friendly and efficient. We will be back for more delicious Chinese dishes, especially the Gwneral Tso Chicken.“

“Orders on Grubhub and my order came PIPING hot and they included rice and 2 fortune cookies as a little something extra. We’ve ordered their catering before and it was just as delicious. It’s a decent price for that amount of food ($35 for 4 meals worth of sesame chicken and lo mein). They PACKED my lo mein into the container but for $10, I wish there was just a bit more.

Never stepped foot in here so I can’t speak to the atmosphere, but:

5 stars for food because duh. The food is great.
5 stars for service because my food was HOT.“

“Really good food! It's great to see somewhere with an extensive and tasty menu filled with authentic Chinese dishes in addition to the standard Americanized takeout stuff. Not that the American Chinese food was bad either, they clearly put effort into all their cooking. It made me sad to see the restaurant so empty!“

“Love ❤️ the variety of food, friendly service staff & average price!!“

“The service and food were very good. The meat was also very good as well. The waitress was friendly and checked on up and kept the table clean of plates and made sure we had drinks as well. Her name is Lynn 8 and will ask for her again when we go in.“
