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.“

“Food is fresh, restaurant inviting. Nice large tables/booths. Food is delicious. Successfully met tastes of all 50 party guests“

“I love this place! Best wings around, and flavor city! Great quality, so delicious and well made food! I love the atmosphere, but if you sit next to a loud table it can be loud. It’s also rare you find a chicken wonton soup and one that’s this good! Enjoy! Pro tip ask for the homemade ginger beer. Probably supposed to be only for the mules at the bar but…You’re welcome.“

“The food was delicious and the service was great. Already looking forward to returning and trying other items on the menu.“

“Always a must stop when staying in Philly! I crave their cold sesame noodles!!! The fried dumplings are excellent as well!!!“

“Reasonable prices, excellent service and great portions with extra friendly staff. My go to for Chinese in my area.“

“All the rave reviews are true! I visited with a friend from out of town and we had a feast of our favorites. Nearly everything on the menu is vegan, and it was hard to choose! The lunch special is a fantastic value and includes soup and a spring roll. We chose the miso soup, which we agreed is the most flavorful we've ever had. The staff are friendly and really helpful, and the food came out really fast - truly cooked to order. And, as if that weren't enough, the prices are incredibly reasonable. 10/10. I can't wait to go back!“

“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.“

“I’ve never had such a cool and friendly experience at a restaurant. Everyone was so nice and the food was great! One of the staff members even played a song on the Jing Guan for our son! One of the best experiences I’ve ever had!“

“When I saw how affordable this spot was, I wasn’t expecting to be wow’d by the food but oh my goodness it was good! I got the chicken chow mein, pork dumplings in chili oil and the crunchy spicy cucumber. The heat levels were perfect (I got medium for the chow mein and dumplings, and the recommended level for the salad). I could still taste all the flavors but my mouth was coated perfectly in sichuan. The balance of sweetness and aromatics in everything - especially the pork dumplings - was delicious.

The staff was friendly, the wait time was short, the food was fresh.

I will absolutely be coming back and you should too :)“

“Food and service were awesome“

“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.“

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

“The food at Ji Bei Chuan was delicious, and we were not disappointed. It’s a small, cozy place with very good service. The owner was always checking on the guests and making sure everyone was satisfied. You can tell they really care about their customers. Highly recommend giving this place a try—we’ll definitely be back!“

“used to loveeee their seafood spaghetti. cried when they downsized their menu T_T but i still enjoy the other dishes they still have up!!! only thing is that it feels like they change their format everytime i go in..? used to be a really nice, chic resturaunt, but now opted for a more take-out service, which i do not mind“

“Great Food and amazing drinks“

“Just had this place for the first time. Got the lunch special garlic chicken. HIGHLY recommended. If I’m being honest, the non-lunch-special prices are a little high for the area, but that’s not to say it’s not worth it. Best Chinese food I’ve had since Flushing, Queens.“

“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!“

“Wait staffers very helpful with menu“

“Everything is fresh and delicious! Atmosphere is very friendly, they treat you like family!“

“Great local spot for fresh yummy food“

“all food Good 100 persen like“

“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“

“CASH ONLY. They have an ATM on site though.

This place is great!

Typical Chinese takeout spot with a pretty standard menu. They have a great lunch deal during the week where you get an entree and either a soup or soda for like $10.

I’ve tried a bunch of things here and have never been disappointed. Portions are a good size and I usually have leftovers.“

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

“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 food, great service, very friendly staff.“

“Authentic Taiwanese style dim sum and Asian tapas. Fantastic local joint located in a small mall complex.
•Braised pork belly tapas, ultra sumptuous with sweetened, soy sauced pork belly meat cubes with complete layering including translucent gelatinous pork skin. Ultra satisfying bite. Slivers of spinach in sauce perfect for flavoring rice
•Sauteed Mongolian beef, more like iron plate beef with the smokey wok hei kind of flavor vs sauced Mongolian but enjoyable still. Purple onion refreshingly crunchy and slightly sweet
•[not pictured] Dan dan noodles with tofu noodles with tender fresh thin wheat noodles and a savory umami punch of dried bean curd and spicy pepper oil, chili crunch, minced meat sauce.
•[not pictured] Osmanthus short ribs, richly honey sweet braised tender meat wrapped around the bone.
A bit unfortunate how there was a water problem which preempted availability of steamed dishes. Hoping it's a rare phenomenon.“

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

“The best“

“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.“

“The chicken frames are full of great flavour. In my opinion, their braised chicken with brown sauce tastes even better than dedicated braised‑chicken chain restaurants — definitely give it a try!
If you can handle spicy food, go for extra‑hot on the grilled skewers. They taste fantastic.“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“Tried Aloo Papdi Chat, samosa chat, chicken Tikka Roll, chilli chicken, Dhabba Chicken Curry.. ALL are yummy..kids also liked the taste of all these...“

“The food here is absolutely delicious. It's fresh, flavorful, and filling. The service is polite and attentive. The food is totally fulfilling and leaves your stomach feel nourished. 10/10 come eat here and support an amazing eatery. Order through food delivery services if you must. Just eat the food!“

“Maybe the only spot in Chinatown that serves the sweet (or savory) tofu dessert! I’ve come here many times for that and the pork & vegetable buns. Both are so satisfying and hit the mark every time! I recommend this little spot to anyone craving nostalgic Chinese breakfast treats!“

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

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

“⭐🏆TOP PICK IN CATEGORY 🏆⭐
Hands down the best dumplings I’ve had in Philly. Everything about them is perfect and on point every single time. This is the blind-reach you keep in your pocket when you need a dumpling but don’t wanna search around too hard. Don’t over think it: go here.“

“This place is a must try if you are in the area. It was delicious.“
