26 Best Chinese Restaurants near Mechanicsburg

“First time going here and we messed up our order so after we checked the receipt we went up and asked, Ashton W was our server, and was able to chang our order. He was extremely nice about it and didn't have any problems. Any questions we had he answered politely with no issue. I definitely recommend this restaurant, for the quality of food, and the quality of service you receive.“

“To preface, I don’t live in Mechanicsburg, so I asked my co-workers where is a good place to get Chinese take-out, and they said Giant. I was really confused and skeptical because our Giant doesn’t have a hot bar like this…. But let me say… it exceeded all my expectations!!! It is very reasonably priced, they give you huge portions and they guy serving was super nice and funny!Definitely will be going back here when I’m craving Chinese again!!“

“Chicken fried rice and special pan fried Noodle Delicious!!
The rice is soft, not greasy, the chicken is tender, I can say about the special 🤩The shrimp are large, the pork is tender, and the chicken is tender I love the texture of the crunchy noodles, and the soft center is simply unique and cheap. The place is modest, but the food is awesome 👏“

“Delicious as always. I ordered takeout, the sweet and sour chicken combo with lo mein instead of fried rice. I am never disappointed when I order food from here. The portion size of both the chicken and the lo mein were good, leaving me with some leftovers for tomorrow. It was hot, fresh, and tasty. The staff was friendly and the food was ready quickly.“

“We stopped for quick takeout while waiting for events at Messiah. The food was freshly prepared and well packaged-heading for the park, requested plates and silverware, made for a convenient family meal on the run- we had to turn around because we miss the plaza, it blends in well in the complex but we had the map on-when we are back in the area we will try it again- thank you!“

“We get from here at my office often and it is always top notch. We used to go to a different place but have fully switched to here. The food is always fresh and hot when they get to the office. Sometimes the service for take out isn't the friendliest but when they're busy we get that. Would definitely make it your go to place!“

“This place is very good not sure why their rating wasn’t higher. Stayed at the hotel up the street and ordered from here 2 nights in a row. They deliver very fast and everything showed up hot and fresh. Their sweet and sour sauce is the real deal nice and thick not watery, I miss places making it like this. Combination fried rice was good, Mongolian dish came with beef shrimp and chicken. The garlic shrimp was delicious. Sweet and sour chicken was on point. I give them an 4.8 out of 5.“

“Very good service an good food. Thank you“

“Love, love, love this place!! When we first moved into our house almost 6 years ago, we were looking for our staple restaurant places (Pizza, Chinese, etc) and we tried China Tea House and have been going there ever since!!!
Their food is always on point with flavor and expensive selection (even though I order General Tso's almost every time). It's always piping hot when I pick it up and they are always the nicest people!

Would highly recommend if you are on the hunt for a place to call your Chinese food fave!

Don't forget to try the Fried Cheese Wontons.“

“Parking: Restaurant is in the Cedar Cliff Plaza with lots of parking. Call in orders ready in 10 minutes. Good food and great service. Our favorite Chinese restaurant for over 20 years.

Wheelchair accessibility: Entrance is on level sidewalk.“

“The absolute best Chinese food in our area! Pearl is the sweetest also. We try eat here about twice a month.“

“I love Chinese if you seen anything I commented on to Nauseam. This is one of the best in Harrisburg. They have all day specials. Which really helps the wallet. Not only that but it's good. Try getting Rib Tip sauce or spicy garlic sauce on your chicken or fries.“

“I absolutely love Magic Wok! I grew up on Magic Wok the young ladies is an absolute delight as 5 ⭐ children & theirr mother is a true treasure to the community by being a good example for her family teaching her children hard work and the benefits that follow!
Much respect for the Magic Wok Family! ??“

“Great food, fast service, friendly people. I had my headphones in so I couldn't understand the lady but a girl standing beside me helped with my confusion being there for my first time. I called ahead for my order and when you get there to pick up you just give the lady behind the counter your last 4 of your phone number so they know what order is yours. Went back a few days later and had the same fat service and great hot food. Definitely go by as much as possible.

Kid-friendliness: Big open lobby with some seating on the side, but enough room inside that kids can be out of the way while ordering and waiting. I didn't see any tables or I just can't remember if there were any. I only grabbed take out, sorry.

Wheelchair accessibility: On Street level with a big sidewalk out front, the door easily opens, big open lobby.“

“Food was ready when we we got there less than 15 minutes after i ordered online. It was a quiet night but the food was still way above your average neighborhood Chinese restaurant. They were very generous with proteins and vegetables, overall it was great!“

“2015 update: I usually get the general tso's, which I have never ever had anything better than their's. Highly recommend them. I used to work near them so my friend and I probably went enough to pay the rent bill. :)2024 update: after a decade of going to China one and having general tso's literally at every Chinese restaurant I could get to in a 20 mile radius over the years, they absolutely still make the best! I will add my same friend, and I still come here fairly regularly at least 1 or 2 times a month. I think as a very long time patron I have the right to say in all honesty that the interior decor, walls, bathrooms, menus, and basically everything you can see is in need of a MASSIVE renovation! It makes it feel crumby to see it and eat there cause you aren't sure just how clean anything is. It's like they built the place, and that was the last time they thought about updating literally anything. Not being mean, I just want to eat A class food in an A class restaurant, not a D- restaurant. I recommend this place to anyone. They will always say my 2 favorite words at the end of ordering every time, "ten minutes" if you know, you know... :)“

“Updated for MENU - their website doesn't work.Can't speak for others. We've gotten good experiences here for some time now.Notably, this is one of the Chinese places that knows how to change their oil out once in a while so everything doesn't taste like everything else.I would recommend take out. The dining room is cold in the winter. That said, plan ahead. There have been times where 20 minutes has turned into 40. It's a family owned business and there are times they are shorthanded.

Parking: Have never seen the parking lot so full you couldn't find a space.“

“Very good service an good food. Thank you“

“10/10 THE SPOT for fantastic food made with real, authentic soul. I cannot hype these guys up enough, I’ve lived in Harrisburg for about 8 years and can honestly say that this place just does it right. They serve high volumes of customers day in and day out and never fail to impress. The ingredients are fresh, the portions are perfect, everything is always right on. Total “hidden gem” of Harrisburg City.“

“I ordered from the menu, so my main dish was cooked fresh, however, the rice noodles were taken from the pre-cooked bins at the counter. I got General Tso's tofu. The tofu tasted fresh, though marginally over cooked. The sauce was good, though a bit too sweet. The rice noodles were excellent and tasted just like singapore mei fun, with a bit of curry flavor and a few veggies in the mix. I was pleasantly surprised by the overall quality for being a food court "Chinese" restaurant.“

“Great find! First time there. Got beef chow mein. They velvet their meat so it was tender & juicy. The veg were fresh. So nice to have super hot (temperature) food that is cooked fresh & not sitting for hours in a steam tray. 10/10 recommend. Inside is spotless but very plain. Will definitely return!“

“The best ,quick ,Chinese cuisine , Harrisburg has to offer. I love the atmosphere, the service and the preparation of the food. My first choice anytime Chinese food is mentioned, it has to come from Chan's!

Vegetarian options: Vegetable fried rice is my favorite.“

“The ladies are always so kind to me here. The portions are really good and prices aren't extreme. They've even given me extra of stuff if they didn't like the portion they might have given me. Wonderful staff. Usually my go to if I'm in the food court or craving Chinese.“

“Very good and one of the better wonton soups around.“

“Very nice friendly people. Food is good and nice portion. Tasty and they open late night. Thank you“

“I don’t get the bad reviews because this is the best Chinese around. We typically get it delivered and it is always so delicious, fresh, and give generous portions. We never have had a bad meal here. They have great sesame chicken, General Tsos, broccoli with garlic sauce and beef and broccoli. The best of the best is their wonton soup ?! It hits the spot when you are sick!“
