50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Cheltenham

“Food is hot and portions are good.“

“I can't relate to the negative reviews, as that has not been my experience. This has been our go-to Chinese takeout for years. This place has always had solid chinese food at a reasonable price. The delivery people are usually EXTREMELY prompt and very friendly. Plus, a lot of vegetarian options.“

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

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

“Great Food and amazing drinks“

“Delicious food. Great service. Clean and delicious !“

“Uniquely seasoned food served promptly and pleasantly. Outdoor seating is available in a private booth design that's very 'public' since it's on the sidewalk. The interior design is remincent of authentic Chinese culture with wooden dragons carved in the wall. You can sit at the bar or sit in the main dining area. The culinary delights are streamed, gluten free or lightly fried. The chilli sauce/oil is a nice surprise it's fragrant with a hint of perfume of anise, cardamom and clove, amongst other herbs,all smothered in oils and Sichuan pepper. I highly recommend this spot.“

“Great local spot for fresh yummy food“

“Best Chinese dinner I've had in a long time! We will definitely be back!“

“Food? DELICIOUS. Drinks? AMAZING. Service? TOP NOTCH. Staff? FRIENDLIEST people I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. I will be back. Count on it!“

“First time trying this place I took picture with my digital camera that’s why it might look different but I would say the food taste is amazing but I was mostly was into spicy kimchi spaghetti then went to order other appetizer because I was very hungry the sweet potato Fries when I bite into them it was like wow the taste amazing the popcorn chicken taste good too. If your into like fancy dining restaurant should try here. If I have time I’ll definitely come back again 🤭“

“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.“

“Went to china gourmet for lunch midweek. Not crowded at all although the large free parking lot was pretty full due to the nearby Asian supermarket. We were seated immediately and the dim sum carts came by very soon after. There seemed to be 3 carts with dim sum and one with soups. Plenty of choices although the language barrier made it something of an adventure. For instance I ordered some buns which I thought the server had said were poppyseed, which I confirmed with her. They turned out to be some sort of onion mixture. They were delicious nonetheless. We also tried the signature salt and pepper squid dish. It was different for other fried calamari we have had and was very good. We tried several varieties of dumplings and they were unremarkable. Service was efficient. The place is very large but lacks atmosphere. Other than the fish tanks and tvs on the wall there wasn’t much decor. For to try the different options from the carts but we could have benefitted greatly from having someone with us that could tell us what the choices really were.“

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

“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!“

“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!“

“Had Friday dinner out with friends!
Pricey but overall a good experience!
The restaurant is on the 3rd floor. There is an elevator going straight to the restaurant.
Spacious and family friendly.
Wheelchair accessible.“

“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“

“Atmosphere is super good. Restaurant opened only about a year so not well known yet but dishes are authentic and delicious. Restaurant is very clean and neat. Very large menu with all kinds of dishes with quite good vegetarian selections as well! The restaurant is right on the race street in Chinatown I have been passing by many times but never paid attention to probably because their sign is not very obvious to people on the sidewalk. Great place to eat in. They have dim sum in the morning.“

“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.“

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

“Enjoying my lunch The atmosphere is beautiful the food delicious the host was amazing and the place was nice and clean a place where you go and enjoy your company the food and don’t forget the cold beverages the strawberry lemonade is unbelievable“

“Today May 31st is our first time ordering and I must say food is amazing and staff is very friendly. We will definitely order again 😊“

“We had catering for Thanksgiving 2025 and every dish was fantastic: Here was had: ducks off the bone, beef and scallion pancake roll, crispy cucumber in sauce, scallion pancake, wonton in chili oil, honey walnut shrimp, String beans, braised tofu in brown sauce, eggplant garlic sauce“

“I have never left a review so quickly!! First timer and did pickup. O m g. This is the best, freshest Chinese food I’ve ever had. Any other place you cut open the chicken and it GRAY. This was white meat chicken. My husband got sushi and said it was phenomenal. The restaurant itself is spotless and the woman behind the counter was so friendly. Absolutely will be back.“

“We LOVE coming to Bao Nine! Best place to eat! Great food, comfortable atmosphere, quick service! REAL FOOD!“

“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.“

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

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

“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!“

“Today was my first time ordering from this restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious. It was so fresh. I had sweet and sour pork and the hot and sour soup. It was the best soup ever! It's the only Chinese restaurant I will order from in the future. Also, the person who took my order was so friendly as was the delivery person. And the food was nice and hot when it was delivered! Thank you!“

“Our go to Chinese place! The only place in the area that is consistent in pricing and food items always being the same with every order.
We have ordered from here several times and will continue to as long as we live in Newtown!
Will start posting pictures everytime we order, they need more food pictures to show the quality and freshness of their food! (Which is always spot on)“

“Amazing! We loved all of the food but the service was fantastic! All of the staff was friendly and helpful. Our family will definitely be back. It was a great experience.“

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

“For those who grew up in Cantonese households all know what “熱氣 (yit hei)” is all about lol.

What first caught my eye was the name: “Heung Fa Chun” (杏花邨) is actually the name of a real housing estate in Hong Kong, which instantly gave me a sense of authenticity.

They serve all kinds of nostalgic HK style snacks, from steamed buns and zongzi to traditional pastries and desserts. A true hole-in-the-wall gem in Philly Chinatown.

I was feeling a bit “yit hei” (literally “hot air” in Cantonese), so I grabbed myself a 龜苓膏 (herbal jelly/gui ling gao, aka “turtle jelly”). It's one of the go-to remedies for combatting yit hei. If you’re feeling yit hei, like breaking out, getting sore throats, or even indigestion, you need to eat some gwai ling go.

I was quite surprised to find it here. My mom would be so proud I got it without her having to tell me.

Warning: it’s VERY bitter if you eat it on its own. Definitely add the syrup to turn it into a healthy sweet trea.“

“Wait staffers very helpful with menu“

“Jiang nan is always my go-to option when I don't know where to eat. And whenever I'm here, I always order peking duck. It's probably not the best pecking duck out there but is pretty solid. I discover that this salted egg shrimp is soo good! Each shrimp is big and has a crunchy shell covered in delicious salted egg sauce. The veggie is also good with the bean curd seasoning. I would not order dan dan noodle again because it is pretty bland.“

“Got to the restaurant and we were seated immediately, given menus, and they seemed to sense as soon as we were ready to order, no waiting involved. The food was amazing! The broth of the beef noodle soup was so rich and hot, the cold sesame noodles were the right level of spicy and very chewy, and the Chinese hamburgers were fresh, warm, and crispy on the outside/soft on the inside (try adding chili oil!) Everything came out very quickly and fed our whole table for such great prices.“

“Got general Tso chicken, pork fried rice and an iced tea for $10.50. No idea how they are able to charge this little but the food wasn’t bad at all. The pork fried rice was a lil blah, next time I will just get white rice. I didn’t call to order and my food took a lil while but I was very happy with the general tso chicken. Will order again.

Parking: Small lot. Shared with laundry.“

“I love Sid!! That’s my girl. She always take care of me when I go in there. She’s also always SUPER NICE to my daughter and gifts her with little treats and snacks. Food is always AMAZING and service is always GREAT. 10 out of 10 would recommend.“

“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.“

“First, let me start with greeting . I received very greeting . Secondly, it is very clean and restaurant . Thirdly, the food was really really fresh, seasoned cooked perfectly cooked . My friends and myself are in love their ribs, chicken broccoli, pepper steak, egg and shrimp rolls . I wish we taken pictures before we inhaled the food. I will definitely make this place go to restaurant on Friday night .“

“Our favorite Chinese restaurant, in Philadelphia, is Ho Sai Gai. Clean, fast service, and wonderful service. Delicious food.“

“Great vibe, nice service and excellent location for people staying in the area! Food was quick, hot and tasted seasoned!“

“Good place if you are craving skewers. They have a lot of options. I'd reorder all the skewers I tried except for rice cake and fish tofu. The honey rice cake in appetizer is way too sweet, I'd not recommend. I have mixed feelings about the rice noodle and quail egg under foil grill. It's numbing spicy but the seasoning is okay. The noodles is chewy and quail egg is all right. It has bean sprouts and naba cabbage. I probably won't re-order cuz I would prefer more space for skewers. The restaurant is pretty small.“

“Asian Fresh Kitchen is my new go to for delicious food! Just made my first order yesterday & everything was delicious!“

“Great service and food!“

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