50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Ardmore

“This local restaurant features authentic Xi'an-style noodles and traditional Chinese dim sums, showcasing a rich culinary heritage. I especially enjoy the belt-thick Biangbiang noodles, handcrafted daily by skilled chefs and served with a hearty, savory meat sauce that highlights their al dente texture. The hot sour soup they offer, brewed with a delicate balance of vinegar and white pepper, is regarded as the best in town, offering a tangy complement to the other dishes. Although the restaurant has been modestly remodeled, with simple decor and practical furnishings, it maintains high standards of cleanliness and warm hospitality, creating a welcoming dining atmosphere.“

“I love the lemon grass soup w/the scallops & shrimp & rice noodles. It’s actually the only thing I have been getting there for the past 2 years. Yesterday the scallops were HUGE & whole...they’re usually broken, small ones!“

“Went there with party of 4 on Sat evening. Good thing we had reservation. They were pretty full and people without reservations were turned away. We did have to wait before they sat us but it wasn’t too long. It’s a byod place so bring your own 🍷 🍻.
Parking was difficult - but that’s typical in downtown Chinatown. Recommend the calamari appetizer that was made just right. Lightly battered and flavored. Really enjoyed the sauté mushroom - flavored very well. I had the egg pancake with scallion on rice… which reminds me of my childhood. Others in our party had interesting options too. I tried the salmon over sticky rice - that was hands down the best dish on the table that night! Cooked perfectly - when the salmon flakes but not overcooked and rice was delicious! The chicken dish was also good.
We tried two of the dessert that turned out perfectly - not too sweet. Mango sago had something like grapefruit in there adding a twist to the dish. I would go back !“

“Made reservations at 7pm at loch bar for my sister’s birthday. I got there first and since my sister was a few minutes away, the host couldn’t seat me without her. My sister arrived at 7:05pm and the host informed us that it was busy therefore we would have to wait at the bar until there is a table available. I’m not sure what is the point of a reservation, if you won’t be seated right away. The bartender was really nice and welcoming. 20 minutes later, there was an open table. The appetizers were delicious especially the mussels!!!! The caviar and potato skin were sooo good as well. The oysters were fresh & cold just how I like it. I ordered shots of clase azul for my sister’s bday and we decided to do a bump of caviar & a shot of clase azul. It was a great combo! Thank me later.“

“We had a few different things off the menu and shared. Everything was amazing. All of the ingredients were fresh, the servers had great recommendations, and the service was prompt. We will definitely be back in the warmer months to enjoy the outdoor seating.“

“Great food, great service, very friendly staff.“

“Make no mistake. Don’t expect awesome Chinese food. This place serves its purpose incredibly well which is food that tastes good enough for incredible value in price and portion sizes. If you like Panda Express, you will like this place. For $47 we got enough food for 4 meals (5-6 if you are a light eater or with kids). The value is crazy good and perfectly met expectations.“

“Boljug RASANE ..cuma PORSInya Krg NENDANK dr segicu HARGAnya!!!:D“

“They have so many options for vegetarians/vegans! The veggie dumplings were nice and I’m looking forward to try more dishes like orange tofu while I’m at Temple. Great option for late night eats. The place is clean and relatively easy to find healthy options!“

“Great local spot for fresh yummy food“

“Excellent food and very reasonable price compared to other Chinatown dim sum restaurants. The food is self-serve: you grab a tray and go pick what you want and bring it to your table on your own. Staff take away your used trays and empty dishes.“

“Solid spot for Chinese takeout! The menu has a wide variety of food. I would definitely come back when I'm craving Chinese food.“

“It’s legit the best Chinese takeout in the area, bar none. I’ve spent 5 years looking for somewhere like this.

The Singapore mei fun is chock full of deliciousness, the lo mein isn’t greasy or stingy on the veggies, and the staff is super sweet.

I’ve never had anything from here that’s disappointed me.“

“Eggplant yum. Dan Dan noodles yum. Delish.“

“I was here today for the first time. Had a late lunch. Kosher vegan. The food is excellent. The service very friendly. I will definitely be back.“

“I absolutely enjoyed the hot pot here. They had a variety of meats, veggies, and seafood. Everything here is fresh, I can certainly say you get a lot for what you pay for here. The servers here are friendly and very welcoming. There is a lot of space inside the restaurant, it gives a traditional atmosphere.“

“It’s by far the best Chinese food I’ve ever eaten. Not only is the food delicious, the owner, Cary and his staff are the nicest people. I highly recommend them! Also, they deliver. #wontonsoup #exceptional“

“My husband and I love this place what makes it so good is the fact the lady and her husband know my husband’s order, no matter how often go as soon as walks in and they see it’s him, they’ll say same thing then say order…..down to the Ttttttt; always so nice and food is always fresh and hot.“

“Great food! delicious soft shell crab, vegetable dishes, soup dumplings, & more!“

“I was looking for roast crispy duck. I didn't want to go to Chinatown because its gotten rundown, yucky traffic, expensive parking and horrible SEPTA. I decided to stay in my neighborhood so I could walk. I worried about it being expensive. Chestnut Hill is high end and the restaurant looked pricey. What a WONDERFUL SURPRISE! I was a solo table but still treated like a queen with lots of servers checking in, giving water and smiling. The roast duck in black bean sauce on the cast iron plate was SCRUMPTIOUS. It comes with a healthy side of white rice and delicate, flavorful bok choi. The skin was crispy yet NOT oily or greasy. The CHUNKS of tender duck meat were excellent. The sauce was thick, savory and yummy. FOODGASM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The portion was so healthy that I was able to take a container home for lunch the next day. Then I ordered the Mudslide ice cream pie for dessert. PERFECTION. Dense, creamy, sweet but not cloying with nut accents, fresh strawberries and cream as garnish. Cool treat on a humid Summer night. When the bill came, I was shocked that it was less than $40. I did not order a cocktail because I wanted to concentrate on the food. I gave them a big tip and said I am absolutely returning. I am also addicted to their spring rolls too. Two perfect crunchy flaky rolls filled with a balanced combination of shrimp, cheese, and cabbage that you can dip in duck sauce or mustard or just enjoy plain.“

“Awesome dumplings. Food seemed very authentic. Great service, quick too.“

“Best bao buns in town I recommend it“

“The food is as amazing as the owner. HAN IS THE MAN!!! Get the Dan Dan Noodles.“

“Amazing sushi and service! Great for families with kids too!“

“Friendly, attentive, knowledgeable staff. Great fresh vegetarian options with delicious tomato broth. Good vibes and music. Clean bathrooms.“

“If I had to limit dining to one restaurant in Philly, this would be it.“

“Wait staffers very helpful with menu“

“I ordered twice from them through Uber Eats and the food is fantastic! The first time I had fried rice, bbq spare rib tips, blue lemonade, and cheesesteak roll. This time I had regular lemonade with young chow fried rice. I sprinkled soy sauce on it in the picture, but trust me, it didn’t need it, it’s good on its own and I was just being extra lol. They’re officially my favorite Chinese food spot. They’re flavorful, consistent, and always piping hot!“

“So glad I found this restaurant amongst the many in Chinatown. I enjoy the roasted duck noodle soup from another restaurant but I decided to give this a try and I was happy I did!

I like how Lau Kee separates the broth from the noodles and vegetables! The flavor of the broth alone was delicious! When I put the two together…it was perfection. The duck is seasoned well and there is a nice portion of noodles.

I will definitely be adding Lau Kee to my fav list!“

“Being from nyc, and have had many a many different Asian foods … this.. this place has the most authentic taste ever… from noodles to your comfort favorites of garlic shrimp or general tso, you can really tell it’s not the same sticky or hard or typical fast food Chinese! Always come only here when visiting Philly!“

“I had such a good experience here. The broth was genuinely flavorful — not watered down or overly salty like some places. We did a split pot and both sides stayed rich the whole time. The spicy broth actually had depth to it instead of just heat, which I really appreciated.

The ingredient quality stood out the most. The meat was thinly sliced and fresh, not frozen-tasting, and the vegetables looked crisp and clean. Their sauce bar was also surprisingly good — lots of options, and everything tasted fresh. I liked being able to mix my own without it feeling messy or picked-over.“

“Been here very often and service is always top notch. Food is excellent and I always recommend people here.

One of my favorite dishes are a shrimp stuffed wild mushroom, sticky rice lobster, and a salted duck egg crab.

Most of their dishes are excellent and they have a great variety of desert and buns.“

“Moved to the area 5 years ago. Have struggled to find a half decent Chinese restaurant anywhere nearby. After dozens of really terrible local options we just gave up. In a desperate need to feed the family without time to go grocery shopping, I finally tried Golden Key. Portions are generous, prices are reasonable, and food is as decent as I make from scratch at home.

Most notably, they seem to make an effort to wash their vegetables really well. I can rarely eat restaurant vegetables 'cause they're so poorly cleaned & still covered in industrial ag chemicals (I work in the industry, as such I'm sensitized to the chemicals. Any residual in the produce I consume makes me sick)“

“Great food! Easy walk from convention center! Enjoy!“

“We wanted to try something new in old City. Love the area. There was great smell coming from the place and it drew us in. The food was good and our server was good.“

“The Mongolian Beef was absolutely fantastic! Tender slices of beef cooked perfectly with just the right amount of spice. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff made sure we had everything we needed. Definitely coming back for more!“
