48 Best Chinese Restaurants near Fort Sam Houston

“This Panda Express sets the gold standard for high-volume dining. Despite the constant rush, the team operates with impressive precision and grace. A huge thank you to the whole team, whose commitment to food quality and upbeat attitude makes every visit a pleasure. Truly the best location in the area!“

“China Inn is hands down the best Chinese spot in town! The customer service was amazing from the moment we walked in, so friendly and fast. The almond chicken and sesame chicken were incredible, packed with flavor, and super fresh. You really can't beat their lunch and dinner specials; the prices are some of the best around and the portions are huge. You'll definitely have leftovers! Highly recommend!“

“delicious food and nice workers definitely coming back“

“Hole in the wall, tiny, but authentic and delicious. We bought the egg rolls, beef soup with thin noodles, and spicy lamb soup with thick noodles.

If you’re debating between thick and thin, yes thin is recommended by the restaurant and that’s because it’s easier to eat and soaks in a bit more of the broth. But if you like thick noodles, go ahead and just get thick because if you’re a fan of thick, thin will pale in comparison for you.

Both beef and lamb were very good. I think I prefer beef a little more though just because the lamb was a bit more gamey versus tender. And the beef broth had deep layers of flavor that you can taste if you let it sit in your mouth and taste. The lamb was very flavor forward versus the beef had depth in flavor. At first taste, lamb tasted better but just my personal preference I prefer beef. The lamb was also spicy so maybe it was harder to taste that depth of flavor if it had any because there was a forward spice.

The egg rolls were amazing. We loved how hot and juicy the veggie egg roll stuffed with noodles were. Probably one of the best veggie egg rolls I’ve had.“

“Rob was our server on an early Saturday evening. He was amazing as was the cranberry freeze cocktail, the apple n spice cocktail. Can never go wrong with the lettuce wraps, dumplings and cucumber salad. It all came our expeditiously and we left in time to get to our event that evening. We will be back and try something new! Great venue, food, service with Rob and prices are affordable.“

“it was good until a roach showed up!“

“Seriously, can't get enough! Not generally my preferred cuisine, but I have stopped in probably once a week since I first tried it! definitely a place to not miss.You will love everything on the menu and not be disappointed! Service is top notch and it's incredibly clean!!!!!“

“Thank you Panda Inn,
Food was amazing, there lunch specials are 🔥 FIRE 🔥 portion size, taste, and the egg rolls. I remember eating here years back when I was on Fort Sam Houston base. Not sure how long its been open but its just as good now the food as it was back then. I had the lemon chicken, and it was amazing.“

“I don't want to say how great it is because that means people are going to flood this place! We finally found a place locally that was like we went to the other side of the City. So please people, let me have this one!

Update 6/18/24
Still a nice place to satisfy our taste buds. The waitress remembered all my particulars. Good times.“

“This place knows how to cook ducks and dumplings like pros. The duck meat is very tender and the skin is so crispy. This may seem like a small Chinese restaurant, but they know what they're doing here and you can taste their love of labor in them. Their duck soup is incredible because the duck is so juicy and tender and the broth is similar to tonkatsu broth. If you like Chinese food, stop by here first!“

“This is the best place ever I love the pepper chicken omg really thankful they are in Gainesville! Amazing!“

“Outstanding food. A 1 of a kind restaurant in San Antonio“

“very nice meal, reasonable prices. friendly staff“

“This little gem has been my go to since they first opened. My kids growing up loved this place. They still come here too now that they are grown. My wife and I enjoy this pretty much every week! I love the fact you can call in your order and it is ready to grab and go within-10-15min. As mentioned by several other posts here the quantities are far more generous than any of the other locations I have gone to especially for the price! Great value. I love the fact you can also get the dinner special any time of day even during lunch time for a couple of bucks more and is plenty for 2 people to share. We love the cashew chicken and we have them make it spicy(they will add spice to any dish-kung pao style). We also like to add a bag of wonton chips for a buck. They go great with the soup or even by themselves and highly recommend the addition. This restaurant will continue to be our go to for tasty Chinese food.“

“A Remarkable Dining Experience – Wok This Way Sets the Standard Wok This Way is an absolute gem that exceeded all my expectations, both in terms of food quality and service. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that made me feel instantly at home. The restaurant’s ambiance is a wonderful blend of traditional and contemporary, creating a cozy yet vibrant setting that perfectly complements the delicious cuisine. The food was nothing short of extraordinary. Each dish was prepared with a level of care and precision that showcased authentic Asian flavors while incorporating modern twists. The variety on the menu was impressive, offering everything from classic favorites to unique chef specials. We sampled a few different dishes, including the savory Kung Pao chicken, the aromatic Thai basil stir-fry, and a perfectly crispy spring roll appetizer – each one was a standout in its own right. The balance of flavors was impeccable, and the freshness of the ingredients truly shined through. You can tell the kitchen team is passionate about their craft, and it reflects in the quality of every bite. What truly elevated the experience at Wok This Way, however, was the top-tier service. Ricky, who not only served us but is also the owner, brought a level of hospitality that was both professional and heartfelt. His attention to detail was exceptional – he made sure our glasses were never empty, checked in to see how we were enjoying each course, and even took the time to share stories about the restaurant’s journey. It’s rare to come across a place where the owner takes such a hands-on approach, and it made our visit feel incredibly personal and special. Ricky’s genuine kindness and dedication to providing an outstanding dining experience were truly a blessing. Overall, Wok This Way offers more than just a meal – it delivers an experience that lingers long after you’ve left. The combination of outstanding food, an inviting atmosphere, and remarkable service creates a dining destination that sets a high standard. For anyone looking to indulge in delicious Asian cuisine served with a side of heartfelt hospitality, Wok This Way should be at the top of your list. I’m already looking forward to my next visit to try more of the mouthwatering dishes on their menu!“

“1st time eating at China Sun! First impression was on the cleanliness of the restaurant! Awesome. Then our server was so nice. The food was the best we’ve had in a while. Came out steaming hot and plentiful. Prices were fair. We’ll definitely be back!“

“I really like this place. I had hot and sour soup, egg roll and entree. It was really good and it's close to my house. The service was good as well. Definitely recommend .“

“Amazing food and tea! Loved the service too.“

“Holy Moly! Just tried this place on a whim. Wow!! The food was amazing. So fresh and delicious. We got the shrimp lo-Mein. Beef brisket noodles, twice cooked pork belly and crispy dumplings. Wow. Just wow. All of it was amazing.“

“I moved back the neighborhood after 12 years and was so happy to see this place was still open. The food is amazing and portions are big. The price is reasonable. The staff is very friendly and they package the to go orders very well. Overall it's fantastic and by far my favorite place to get a quick and delicious dinner.
Thanks for being awesome. Keep up the good work!“

“Chopsticks Chinese Buffet.💯🙏♥️“

“Excellent customer service! Phenomenal Eats!! Food is excellent! Great atmosphere! Highly recommend! We’ll be back for sure!! We need a place like this in Deep South Texas!“

“Great service and the food is spectacular. Try the mango chicken. It has a little bit of a curry flavor. The orange peel beef is also a good choice.“

“Ming’s offers a unique blend of flavors and a fun, modern ambiance that makes it a standout spot for fast-casual dining. The menu is a creative fusion of Asian, American, and even some unexpected elements — think jalapeños, French fries, and steak all making surprise appearances.“

“Have NEVER been disappointed! Food is delicious and served hot. I have tried everything on the menu, at least once. Everything is delicious!“

“The food from this place is amazing hot and flavorful, but even more importantly the service that Kelly gives. She is so nice and fast and patient. You have another worker that to be very honest looks and acts a bit odd. I do not stop by when she is here I will walk right out. It’s hard to find good service nowadays and she definitely keeps the customers happy I seen and heard everyone laughing with her.“

“Food is on point & fast service“

“I usally get the sweet n sour chicken but wanted to try the beef n brocolli. I ask the waiter ifbit has water chestnut because i dont like it stir fried in my food. AND he described the beef n brocolli as tender beef in a savory sweet gravy with fresh carrots and brocolli and he sold me but the actual plate amazing. Lunch specials 12 bucks with a soup and egg roll. Also both delicious.
This is how waiters are suppose describe a plate . Awesome job!“

“Been here a couple times. Drive-thru only, no dine in option. Always fresh and hot. Egg drop soup has good flavor but is exceptionally thick. I've had the chow mein before but I don't like that it is either noodles or vegetables - not both. And it is large thick noodles not thin stringy rice noodles. Beef and mushrooms and beef pepper steak was great! Their egg rolls are decent. Fried rice has little flavor. Their crab rangoons are AMAZING! Definitely recommend!! The portions are huge at a decent price! 2 meals for me honestly.“

“Pho was good. Also had the A1 appetizers which was a variety of 3 different rolls. And the roast pork Banh Mi. That was also great. The bread on that sandwich was on point. Was here on a Wednesday around 1, it was a little full, but we were still able to be seated as soon as we walked in.“

“10/10! Great food! Amazing customer service! & can’t beat the prices! I will be back 👍🏻👍🏻⭐️“

“Thank you guys so much for the food! We ordered 4 different trays : fried rice, chicken teriyaki, wontons and egg rolls. We received tons of compliments on the food! The portions were incredible…. Everyone was able to take food home at the end of the event… Price was affordable. It has been our most stress free event thanks to you guys. We will definitely be ordering again for our next event!!“

“The Brisket Pho was phenomenal! Great service, fast and clean.“

“Amazing food! Very fresh ingredients. Fantastic flavor in every dish. Great sweet tea. Fast and friendly service. Clean dining room, smells good. Chili oil is amazing!“

“Very good food, quick service and not that expensive. It definitely hit the spot on a cold January day. We recommend.“

“Awesome Chinese Food and Great Service“

“I will recommend yes, as a price friendly, tasty food but my last visit was less than pleasing. I ordered cashew chicken and the plate was over 50% celery(no joke) and the fried rice wasnt more than a beige tinted white rice that had no flavor. Its been awhile since I had been there but def remember the dishes being better in the past.“

“Great Food with great service i would to come back again for sure.“

“So far the salted fried wings are my fave!! I’ve tried a few different meals and to me the sauces gave a sweet taste..spice and garlic sauce was sweet..I’m not a big fan of sweet..but the was always fresh and hot each order!!“

“Best spot ever always welcoming and recognizes customer each time we go. Food is amazing always love ordering from them. And appreciate their patience since we are a big family of 9. They are always busy and understand they are always looking to improve in anything.“

“Great food and relaxing ambiance. My wife and I enjoyed our Friday night here and we had an awesome experience!“

“This place has a nice atmosphere, good and attentive service, and wonderful food. I was a bit sad they did not offer a vegetarian pho, but the ginger pepper tofu vermicelli bowl was really wonderful. The tofu was hot and cooked perfectly, not too crispy, but with a crisp edge and seasoned deliciously. It came with sautéed veggies and pickled carrots, all the fixings and lettuce. I asked for no fish sauce and it was still incredibly flavorful. Hope to be back again.“

“Wow. I just relocated from Austin and couldn't get here fast enough. The Dr. James Potyka family looooooooves you all. Server Chris is superb and delightful, as is your food. See you soon.Excited to try your Pad Thai!!“

“Visited today for the 1st time during my lunch, not knowing what to expect, and was pleasantly surprised. Ordered the chicken pad thai, and it was delicious. Service was great, too! Received suggestions on appetizers and even got to sample their hibiscus tea, green tea, and purple lemonade. I liked this place so much that I'm now planning on coming back with my family during the weekend.“

“food is delicious... it's worth the drive... I love to find small businesses and take my business to them... I sure will be back... it's just down the street from my work... highly recommend this place...“
