50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Worthington

“Never disappointed with their flavorful options.“

“Today we tried Golden China Express for the first time. We loved Hunan Lion, but it has been closed so long after a terrible fire. Golden China Express is very much nearby for us, but we didn't know what to expect.\nWe could not have been more pleased. The Lo Mein and War Sue Gai were delicious and with generous portions. We split a large WonTon Soup which was also delicious.\nIt was a rather large order, as we included friends, and enjoyed the meal together. The online order was easy to complete and it was ready for pickup when promised. There were absolutely no mistakes in the order and we were all pleased with the taste of all the menu items. We plan to return often to Golden China Express. Try it soon yourself. We think you will be glad you did. Great Chinese food at affordable prices! \n--John and Steffanie Haueisen, Worthington, Ohio“

“A very low key restaurant with family environment, friendly service, fast serving, and authentic Chinese food! They have so many traditions choices which are hard to find in other restaurants and the portion is so huge! I absolutely love this restaurant!“

“We live in Lewis Center and have a place around the corner that we used to go to. My husband liked it okay but I hated it I eventually just got something else whenever he wanted it. It never tastes like real chicken to me no matter what I get, it’s weird. Anyways we were in the area 4 days ago and I wasn’t really feeling well so we just grabbed this to eat to get home. I was nervous because the 4.1 stars. But wow I’m so glad we tried it! I got the orange chicken and my husband got the pepper steak. So good. Then tonight we had it again I ordered the orange chicken and he tried the wor sue gai. Very good. Husband also said place is clean inside. From now on we travel 4 times the distance for this place and I don’t mind!“

“Can't bear the price.,3 large size peices of fish and fries for $11.00. Excellent customer service which is very rare now a days“

“Went for lunch. It was great. Had chicken with noodles and pork with rice noodles. Both were delicious. excellent from the food to the great service and friendly personnel. Will be back for sure.“

“We came here in the afternoon for late lunch and the food was absolutely amazing! We got two different sushi rolls and then 2 entrees and ate the whole thing the food was very good quality and the kitchen looked huge and very cool! Our server was Justin and he made the experience even better ! Our server was very professional and harmonizing with us and we felt good being there. We will be back on our next date for sure“

“We love the food and the owner! The owner had also owned Fortune which used to be in the same shopping center before it was redone (10+ years ago). The food then was great and the food now is great with a new interior! We love spicy szechuan cuisine and they can deliver!! We love it so much we drive an hour now to get it! 😄“

“The food was fresh and delicious! Restaurant is clean and welcoming. The staff is friendly and attentive!“

“Excellent, delicious food! We spent time in India and had not enjoyed the food as well as today’s meal! The butter chicken (I had lamb) was so flavorful and the dal was delighted my palate on every spoonful. We will be back for more!“

“Good food 🥘 and friendly 👯‍♀️staff. The waitstaff is very attentive. Friendly atmosphere. My family enjoyed their dinner.“

“We had a party of 8 shopping on Black Friday. I looked for reservations the day before and this was the only place available at Easton for that size of a party at lunchtime. I'm glad we got to take a shopping break there. Great food, relaxing atmosphere, great service. “

“PF.Chang had been on our to-visit list for a long time and they met all our expectations. The food was delicious, served in generous portions. The atmosphere was laid back, while service was attending with a smile. Next day after our visit, I noticed I had left my credit card there. I called and they had set it aside for me to pick up. We will definitely return.“

“Always a great experience at Genghis Grill! The staff is friendly, the food is fresh, and I love that you can build your own bowl exactly how you want it. Everything comes out hot and seasoned just right. The team moves quick even when it’s busy, and the atmosphere always feels welcoming. Perfect spot for lunch or dinner if you want something flavorful and filling. Highly recommend!“

“If you do not give this place a try you have missed something special.“

“Delicious food, friendly family business, reasonable prices, huge portions, large menu, and convenient location for those in northern central Ohio.... can't ask for anything more. My family's favorite Chinese restaurant.“

“Best egg rolls I’ve ever had. Amazing food and fast delivery.“

“First time take away order from GAR. My family and I loved it! Excellent Pad Thai and Mala Green Beans. Also loved the mini spring rolls and the house hot mustard dipping sauce with it. Its way better than those little packets of hot mustard usually given. Quick service, affordable pricing, great menu variety and very clean looking establishment. I will be calling them again soon, 5/5 stars!“

“I eat here all the time, and every single experience has been amazing. Their food tastes just as good when I take it home! When I order delivery, they always pack the noodles and soup separately, so when I get home, the noodles are still perfectly chewy.Their Dan Dan hand stretch noodle is honestly the best noodle dish I’ve ever had. If you usually order stir-fried noodles, definitely upgrade to the hand pulled noodle— it’s on another level! Their noodles are nothing like the store-bought kind; you can tell they’re hand-pulled from the texture alone, they are so springy.And the soup dumpling are absolutely incredible. This is definitely my favorite restaurant in Columbus!“

“This American Chinese restaurant mainly served American Chinese cuisine. My server recommended the beef fried noodles which tasted authentic. The dining room was clean with a decent bar. There were some cheap alcohol selections during happy hour. WiFi was fast. Glad to see that many American people liked dining at this place.“

“I used to deliver there every Friday while my daughter was at Ohio State and we would eat there for lunch,absolutely the best ever“

“We ordered take out so we can't rate the atmosphere. My husband had wor sue gai and I had spicy lo mein with chicken. Generous serving size and best we've had in years. We used to eat here years ago but somehow forgot about this place. That won't happen again. The food is delightful, awesome, and priced fairly!!!!“

“Went with wife and grandkids. Very nice place. Waiters were very nice and helpful. Some of best Chinese food I’ve had. Would definitely recommend to anyone.“

“We have been coming here for years. Their food quality and service has always been consistently great. My kids love the shrimp lo mein. I get wonton soup and chicken with broccoli. My husband has tried quite a few dishes and always enjoys his meal. We love supporting this family run local business.“

“Delicious and authentic food. One of best Asian cafes on the Northwest side !!!“

“The food is off the chart. Definitely my go to Chinese food place. The service is ok. When you order you better know your phone number when you go to pick it up because communication is not there strong suit. The inside looks worn out and dirty but that food though isn't!!! Overall they get 89% there tasty food carries them!!“

“Love the spicy wings?“

“huge menu. very excited to go back after my first time. wish it was not so far away for me“

“This summer I spent a month in Taiwan and have been missing the food terribly. Lan Zhou reminded me so much of the small little noodle shops with incredible food I grew to love while abroad. Their beef noodle soup was lovely- the greens on top were perfect and the beef was tender. I prefer a slightly more springy noodle, and these were very soft and tender- not my favorite, but I can't complain.
I'm very excited to return.“

“Best War Su Gai sauce and equally good chicken . Was a customer decades ago before change in ownership and still my favorite place ever. Egg rolls have nice spice to them and never had a greasy one!! Kudos to chef!!“

“Hands down the best Chinese food in the Columbus area. You can order anything from here and you won’t be disappointed. My personal favorite is the spicy wings with green onions. I give them 4/5 stars. I would give 5, but they are a little stingy with sauces and when you ask for more they just give you one more and you don’t want to keep asking for more, so you leave with less sauce than you want lol. But overall, highly recommended.“

“The chef, I think he is the owner said that Chow Fun is his best. I also recommend that menu if you want to try some non-Americanized Chinese food. There's some extra chilly oil on the shelves, put them in your plate and you might feel different. The picture I attached is Malatang.“

“love there food!!
this a family owned Biz and it shows in there food!
I've never been disappointed by their food I will say their generals Sal's chicken though could be spicier other then that there chicken on a stick is always hot and fresh *one if my favorite things from them* over all really good experience! also reasonable pricing for two people it was 50 bucks!!“

“I really like your chicken rice soup, wonton soup and beef with snowpeas..Great food for a fair price! Was very disappointed in the chicken corn soup..was excited to have this while I'm sick and it tasted like a ton of sugar had been added to it. Had to throw it out.“

“I ordered Carry Out. I got the Szechuan Triple Delight which was delicious. The chicken, shrimp and beef were cooked to perfection as were the vegetables. I do not care for a lot of sauce so next time I will ask for light sauce but it was spiced just right and there was very little oil, which I appreciated! The hot and sour soup was spicy but just perfect for me! Felt so good going down with this persistent cold I’ve had. My only recommendation would be that the restaurant make their atmosphere more inviting. The stark, white lighting is awful. I would love to eat there but it’s just so bright!!“

“Best food and service! So glad they are back.“

“Food got out fast even though there is only two people working in there. I’ve noticed they usually get it out a lot faster if you go into the store. They definitely have room to improve with the interior and menu being very old but overall a good experience and quality food.“

“This would be my second time trying the Chinese food here, the first time I don't think the restaurant was having a bad day, however I just wanted to give them another chance, (the egg rolls are amazing) yesterday I stopped in for lunch and let me say how wonderful the food was!! The egg rolls were amazing, and the sweet and sour chicken, yummy! I ordered the white rice this time to be safe but oh my hot and fresh everything was, nice job, keep it up.“

“Was in Columbus for a concert and I walked a few blocks here for dinner. I didn’t see sweet and sour shrimp on the menu (only chicken & pork) and asked if they served it. They whipped me up an off-menu speciality on the spot. And it was terrific! Huge shrimp in a delicious sauce, big chunks of green pepper, etc. Their egg rolls were also nice and crunchy which I love and that seems to be harder to find anymore at places I try. The woman working was watching soap operas or something at full volume but I had earbuds in and was too distracted by the tasty meal to mind. Super good meal and wish I lived closer as I’d love to have it again“

“The best General Tsos chicken and and the best Singapore Noodles!“

“Ginger is the best waitress ever!!“

“This location is great. I usually do takeout, and order family style. I recommend the steamed dumplings, egg rolls, string bean chicken (get it extra spicy), the hunan chicken, the lo mein, and fried rice. The people who work here are always super nice, and it's a family run business.“

“Always been good. Ever since I was a child. Steven is not only a dedicated business owner but he is also an all around good man. He treated me so well as a child that I'll never forget it. Go enjoy some Ding Ho today for some family owned super delicious Cantonese dishes. Nothing but great things to say about their entire family.“

“I found this place by accident, now I find myself there as often as I can be. This place is by far the best place for sushi and a big bowl of coconut curry ramen. Holy hell!!“

“The Mala Xiang Guo was perfect in taste and fragrance! We forgot to ask them to omit the numb seeds, which numbed our mouths, but everything else was excellent. The price is very reasonable, and we'll definitely be back to try the Malatang next time.“

“A great family owned business. Amazing food & extremely welcoming staff.“

“This is probably one of the best places on high street. Dumplings are where it is at. The staff is friendly and the food is always good. I go there about every Friday. Prices for portion are great, especially when compared to the rest of high street.“

“We went to the Ace of Cups to watch a performance by Galactic Empire yesterday and we're hungry so we went across the street to Northeast Chinese restaurant. This little hidden spot for most folks turned out to be some of the best Chinese food that I have eaten in my life and I have eaten Chinese food all over the world. The portions are huge, the price is good and the staff very friendly. I recommended anybody traveling through Columbus that might want some good Chinese food, to look this place up and go there and eat.“

“Delicious food, friendly family business, reasonable prices, huge portions, large menu, and convenient location for those in northern central Ohio.... can't ask for anything more. My family's favorite Chinese restaurant.“

“** New ownership 07/31/24 **
We were surprised that the place had been closed for quite some time as it was our go-to place for Chinese takeout. It has been a staple for Marcus theatre area for many many years. It finally reopened under new ownership, but no sign.

The owner was there to greet us and show us the menu. Very nice guy and felt welcomed. We ordered the orange chicken, bokchoy dish, and chicken egg roll. Food was hot and the bokchoy was our favorite dish. Orange chicken wasn't the best but wasn't bad either (would get again). My only gripe is that the prices are similar to a sit-down full-service restaurant and not your typical take-out Chinese food prices. While I would love to come here again the price is way too high for us as we like to go get a quick meal before a movie, etc. I get it the prices need to be adjusted to match inflation/food costs but the price point before new ownership was so good.

All in all, I do want to try the other dishes as the food was good but it won't be on a regular basis as the prices are not competitive with traditional TOGO Chinese places.

PRE new ownership - Food is good and consistent, service is always great. The place could do for a make over as the place seems like it has stayed the same for many many years. But on that note, the prices are super cheap.“
