19 Best Chinese Restaurants near Archbald

“I honestly cannot say enough great things about the quality and tasty food Eastern Wok provides NEPA. I’ve been a patron for years and will be for many years to come.

Over many years, I believe I’ve tried every single Chinese takeout restaurant in the Scranton area and, as a transplanted NY’er, my standards are high and the only Chinese takeout in the Scranton area that comes the closest to Canal St. standards is Eastern Wok. Like many others have told me, the tiniest of holes in the wall always have the best food.

Thank you Eastern Wok for providing our area respectable, delicious and tasty Chinese food!!

The delivery is excellent, quality food at reasonable prices. As a transplanted NY’er, we love our Chinese food on Friday nights and Eastern Wok absolutely is far above the best of every other Chinese takeout restaurant I’ve tried in over a dozen years. The high quality ingredients, quality meats and fish, vegetables and small details like dishes not being overwhelmed with salt, grease and sugar show that someone cares in the product they are serving and delivering.

Since I’ve discovered this hidden gem, I’ve never once had a bad dish and I appreciate that because it’s a treat for me to enjoy takeout and appreciate the value I get for my money.

Wonderful menu to explore, quality meats, fish, vegetables and not drowned in salty, sugary sauces.

The best choice for Chinese in NEPA, in my opinion.“

“Great food, bad pictures.

Don’t let the photos fool you—this place is a gem. We tried the pork fried rice, sweet and sour chicken, pork dumplings, pork egg rolls, and crab Rangoon, and everything was genuinely delicious. You can tell it’s all made from scratch with quality ingredients, not the usual greasy or overly salty takeout.

The portion sizes are generous, the food was hot and fresh, and it’s an excellent value overall. The dumplings and egg rolls had great texture and flavor, and the sweet and sour chicken was perfectly balanced—not too sweet or too soggy.

It’s family-owned with friendly, efficient service, and they clearly care about what they’re doing. Definitely a solid choice for takeout, and we’ll be adding it to our regular rotation when we’re at the cabin. Highly recommend.“

“Best Chinese food around! If you are looking for authentic Chinese food and the best Crab Ragoons ... Check it out! You will be delighted!“

“This is the best chinese spot in Scranton PA!!! I’m originally from NYC and this brought me home. So good! Highly recommend! I had sweet and sour chicken with fried rice and my hubby had the fried crab sticks with house special fried rice and an egg roll. Everything was delicious and a good price as well. Staff is super friendly.“

“i did not very much enjoy the food, but i am rating 5 stars anyways for these reasons as follows: from the strip mall location, sparsely decorated entry way, the chandelier on the cheap school ceiling, fake flowers and classic paper chinese zodiac placemats on the tables, and the music playing so softly it's almost silent inside save for the clink of forks and plates from the four or so tables in for lunch (forks, not chopsticks, provided) and friendly kitchen chatter just out of earshot, this place sends me directly back to 8-year-old nostalgia, when my father would take me to places like this on days together, back in texas, when life was easy and simple. prompt help, choice of seat. lunch specials (many to chose from) come with pork fried rice, (which i asked to not be included so to my dietary preferences (god-related) so i cannot rate this dish), a choice of soup, wonton chips with sweet-and-sour dip, and a pot of hot tea. the water arrives in a goblet. perhaps i should have studied the menu longer, but my choices were as such: very goopy and gelatinous and disturbingly tasteless beef chow mein (i attempted to sprinkle some pepper in hopes of helping the poor thing out, but way too much came out of the shaker and it was pepper chow mein from then on), and egg drop soup that was ok but still very bland. i dipped my wonton chips into a combination of the soup and sauce which i liked the best out of everything. i really liked the tea. point is, this amount of food is simply worth the $<9 price tag, and the service was helpful, thoughtful, friendly, and sweet. next time i will try something else.

Kid-friendliness: personally i believe children belong at home or at chuck e. cheese. there is a child of an employee here though, and they are quite polite and well-behaved.“

“Stopped by on a whim and was blown away! I got the General Tso’s chicken with fried rice and an egg roll — everything was packed with flavor. The staff was super polite and even gave me some recommendations for next time. Definitely coming back!“

“Best service especially from Kent 👍“

“You will not find better Chinese food and service in the area. For a while, I enjoyed the buffet. This place was the hookup during college/covid. I can’t tell you how many nights this place has fed me. The price is reasonable, there are so many things to buy outside of the food, and the take out is actually amazing. I recommend the mango shrimp with lo mien instead of white rice. Best Chinese dish I have had. I am welcomed like family and will never forget this place. Whether you are in college, local, or passing by, give qqs buffet a try. They also deliver!

Parking: Huge commercial lot by McDonald’s“

“Great food and delivery service!!“

“Quick turnaround on your order. I would definitely stick with steamed dumplings vs. Fried. Crab Rab appetizer are medium size not very large. LO mein was delicious Snrimp Egg foo young ..delicious ask for flat not chucky. General chicken good. I wish they offered the General shrimp on delivery menu . We pick up bi weekly or monthly from here yet I hv not asked if they can do the generals shrimp in a brown garlic sauce as that is fabulous and my go to. If I don't stick with veggies. Try and Enjoy! Send feedback if you have a favorite!! Stay warm and as always have a positive day!! Let your thoughts be moving forward. No looking in the rear view mirror.. leave the dust behind. ❤ Spreading love and critiques of local places!!“

“One of the best Chinese restaurants I have ever had in my life. Hands down the best bourbon chicken I have ever ordered. Loved everything we ordered and was very surprised how good the food was. I promise anyone reading this they will not be disappointed when choosing New Sun for takeout or to eat in the cafeteria in the mall. Highly recommend trying all the food here and will return for more.“

“Only good fried rice in the county, doesn't even need soy or duck sauce. Best chicken wings of any Chinese place anywhere near here. But they will guaranteed burn your boneless spare ribs every time, and they don't deliver at all on Mondays which is the day most people don't want to cook. Egg roll be either dry and burned or burned and greasy. I feel like they have a tendency to sometimes over cook things. This does not extend to their extra crispy wings, which they're the only Chinese place out here that doesn't over cook or burn your wings when you ask for extra crispy“

“Thank God this place is good because it's the closest to home! I rarely eat Chinese because I need to be in the mood for it wich isn't often it's really not a favorite of mine but I always get it here when I do want it for sure! my fiance hower is obsessed with chinese food & this place and would probably eat here every day if he could! The food is always hot, fresh, and delicious, They have a little station with sauces out so you can have as much as you want when usually other Chinese restaurants are skimpy on the sauce, It's clean, all the employees are very nice and friendly especially the youngest guy he's my favorite and I'm embarrassed I forget his name because he's told me but he's so sweet and funny! He also gave me a $20 tip when I was working at the subway across the street in Joe's gas station that was very kind and generous not many people would ever do that most don't tip at all and are rude! Anyway we Love China Star and it's employees! P.S MAKE SURE TO TIP WHEN YOU GO ! lol“

“Looked up a spot for Chinese food. Saw this place had a good rating...so happy I came by. Oddly no one was here ..fast service food is delicious...I had bean curd with mixed veggies...veggies were cooked perfectly and it was piping hot and I had crab wontons and they are the best in town!
Delish!“

“I love this place! The lady at the front that takes your order is soooo nice! The food is great! The woman who I saw sitting at the table behind the register, cutting food, was the cutest! She reminded me of my Gram when I was little. The food is awesome! I am glad this ace is on my way to work, because they make the food fast, and it's ALWAYS delicious!

**For the other review complaining the woman didn't have a hairnet-not required when their hair is long. And gloves, also not required when they wash their hands. But you're more than welcome to wear gloves and a hairnet next time u cook.

**For the insect leg review-very unlikely. Probably came from your house. You should get an exterminator!

**For the dirty fishtank review--some fish secrete excess amounts of ammonia, creating that type of tank. To constantly change a fishtank for these fish, can hurt them. Temperature changes, environmental changes, etc... what you consider an eye sore is less important than another being's life. You aren't swimming in it.“

“I ordered delivery, it came very fast. I even got some pineapple on the house. Food was very hot and fresh! The Singapore Chow Mei Fun was amazing had that nice like kick to it! Sweet and Sour Chicken and rice was great! Egg roll was great. Overall very happy with my choice to order from here.“
