40 Best Chinese Restaurants near Mechanicsville

“I've always enjoyed their food. We've ordered several dishes and have enjoyed all of them. We order take-out and the food is always hot and ready on time. Also, the owners are friendly and the place is clean.“

“My family and I have been going to Peking Restaurant for years. It is our favorite restaurant. The food is excellent and the service is unbeatable.“

“I live in the neighborhood behind Tops China. I've been going there since they opened over 10 years ago. Excellent food, great prices and super friendly service.“

“We ordered 8 dishes and the food was absolutely stellar. Probably top 3 Chinese restaurants I’ve had.

The flavors, perfect, the meats were all good cuts (the pork fried rice had nice big chunks of lean pork). The only thing I would pick at is there was a little too much oil in the Singapore mei fun, for my taste. But still delicious. I loved the thin sliced beef in the Singapore noodles.“

“It was a lovely saturday night, around 9pm, me and my girls were itching for some good chinese…and we knew exactly where to go to satisfy our cravings. We’ve been to Chens numerous times so we knew we were in for a treat! Service is always great and extremely welcoming, really makes me feel like Chen’s is a second home to me aha…food was out of this world, beyond a 10/10 to say the least!😂 You know I love me some good Gernal Tso’s chicken, and don’t get me started on those chinese donuts!!🤤 Well..if this review didn’t persuade you enough, hopefully the wholesome photo below will…love you chens…Love❤️“

“Great customer service, clean atmosphere, and the food is amazing! One of my all time favorites | Veggie Singapore Rice Noodles with that little curry kick.“

“The shrimp is always tasty and the servings are hearty in size. The beef, chicken, pork dishes are fresh and the vegetables are flavored just right. Sophia is a wonderfully pleasant hostess who is always friendly, kind and thoughtful. They are also helpful with dietary concerns. Once I went to Zheng’s, I have continued going there on a regular basis. I believe you will like it too if you haven’t already tried it before.. I also like the lunch menu with either a spring roll, egg roll or soup with the entree and rice the way you want it.“

“Great food, friendly staff & no long waits. Highly recommend! ✌🏻🍻“

“Everything we've had has been tasty. The staff is friendly and the restaurant is clean.“

“After this place has been on “RVA Restaurants to Try” list for about 3 years, this was our first time eating at Fat Dragon, but it certainly not be our last! The wonton soup was the best my mother has ever tasted…keep in mind, she’s traveled all over the world. The ginger dressing was so delicious, I asked the server if they sold it in bottles. The garlic chicken and basil beef were both so tender and flavorful, I would highly recommend them both. And last but not least, our server was great! Do not wait to try this place like I did!!!! Go now!“

“My daughter and I stopped here for lunch, and it was amazing! We finally found some delicious dim sum with great portion sizes and excellent customer service. I highly recommend it and can’t wait to go back for more. There's a lot of variety, and I especially love that they offer roasted pork, duck, and chicken!“

“I've been happily stopping at Hunan East, nearly every Saturday, to fill up a take-out tray from their buffet, which has many healthful options, with stir-fried meat and vegetables, all cooked just enough. I get enough food for 4 meals, for the price of two, and that's with a tip (just my choice, not expected, and I serve myself).“

“Fire place 🔥 fresh hot ready to go...you can't go wrong with whatever you order & they have the best deals bang for your buck with quality good food 🙌

A while back I remember! it wasnt like this but they definitely clean house & did a whole 360! They have wonderful staffs / family in here now...I love them ❤️ keep up the wonderful work“

“I’m new to the area after moving from Los Angeles and have been exploring local Chinese cuisine. Based on my recent order of the shrimp fried rice and orange chicken combo, I had a very positive experience.
The meal was delicious, flavorful, and clearly well prepared. The price was very reasonable at $12.50, making it a great value, especially for a lunch option. I was also impressed with the quick cook time — my order was ready in about 10 minutes.
Overall, I’m very satisfied with the pricing, food quality, and efficiency. I have no complaints and would definitely recommend it to anyone in the area looking for a tasty and affordable meal.“

“This restaurant is the best Chinese food I've had in virginia. Family owned and operated for 32 years and the food exemplifies that. Dumplings were a family recipe that tasted amazing and the food itself has its own unique personality and character because of its long standing history. I would come far to have this food again. The only negative was that they were so busy in the kitchen I felt ignored in the dining room at times. I strongly recommend this place because it's different than what you may have had before.“

“I love this new spot! Sky gives the most authentic and warm welcome not just to me but to everyone who stop by. He is patient, and recommends all top dishes. I ordered togo, the portion size was HUGE!!!! I got some chicken egg rolls, Singapore noodles, General sauce chicken and pork fried rice. Everything was perfect. From the curry flavor in the noodles and the chicken being moist and juicy, it was all worth it. If you are looking to try a new Chinese spot, give this a try for sure!“

“Living South of the river, I was pleasantly reminded about China Panda via the Sons of China Panda pop up this week. This morning, I got the egg tart, peanut silken tofu and mochi cake. I'm saving the egg tart and mochi cake for an after school treat sampling. The silken tofu that he said his Mom was up making overnight was simple, delicious, and a much more favorable breakfast than the typical simple carb or saturated fat laden fare common in our American diets and reflected in the offerings by local businesses. I think they would do rather well and wish I'd stopped by [on time] for more of their offerings this week. Hopefully, they will return soon! I'll also make a point to stop by China Panda for lunch in the near future.“

“The Wonton soup was delicious. Deep textured broth. My wife had the Sesame Chicken, and I had the Mongolian Combo, which was beef, chicken, and shrimp. The Sesame Chicken was tasty, but maybe a little too sweet bc it was over-sauced. The Mongolian dish was very tasty and fresh, not too sweet, and the meet was tender. I got take-out, and I would definitely order from here again.“

“Peter changs is the most authentic Chinese restaurant that I know of. a close second would be Full Kee on horsepin off of broad. but P.Cheng's is a combo of traditional grandma like made hot pots with a twist of today to some beautifully created food art type appatisers. the scallion bubble packed is a delightfully fun munch. we ordered peking duck for take-out tonight. my husband will drive across town to get it as we are in Midlothian. the online order menue is not working. the price listed is 35.00. However the menue will not allow me to even register or order. I called we were told the price of the dish is 65.00$$$! we have pking duck 1/yr on NYE and it's my favorite Chinese Dish . so we bit the bullet and ordered. when we asked about the price difference we were told something that y'all should know.... we were told ...oh. we rais our prices around Christmas! Well thanx PETER CHANG. This better be the Best pking duck I could even imagine. This is what you think of your customers SMH.. I'm not sure that I will continue dinning with you in the future. what a shame. such good food and during the Christmas season most places offer something special to show appreciation to their patrons. But your establishments behavior reminds me od a certain Character in Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol. lol interesting that the Walt Disney version of this story Scrooge I'd played by a Duck... 😆😅🤣😂 I'll report back after my husband returns with this golden dinner.“

“I'm not gonna lie but this is some of the best Chinese food I've eaten in RVA. The shrimp fried rice is fire, Mei Fun 🔥, and the chicken wings are crispy. Smh this my new spot for sure. The food was fresh. Also we ordered the general tso chicken which was amazing 🔥. 10/10 definetly recommend. Also, grab you a iced tea yerppppp thanks for the great food. I'll be back lol“

“Let’s be honest with ourselves here it’s a Chinese restaurant in the same shopping center as a food lion….. it’s good food honestly best Chinese food in this general area of Henrico. If you want decent Chinese and you want it quick come to Ming’s they have never let me down in my 15+ years of going to them.“

“Great. Go here!“

“I love there food n also their hospitality I've been eating there for years n I definitely recommend them to family & friends & co- workers?

Parking: The side that most likely where u can park is on other side of entrance door“

“This is my favorite Chinese takeout place. I really like that they offer small or large portions of most things. They always see my note requesting to leave out the mushrooms. I also really like that many dishes still come in the white cardboard boxes instead of all plastic containers. We order direct from them and they always deliver in a reasonable time. It's a great place 💖

I do not recommend the peanut noodles though. They are like spaghetti with peanut butter mixed in. Everything else we've tried has been really good. I like the cashew chicken, general tso's tofu, the egg rolls, egg drop soup, and the pork lo mein.“

“Vegetarian options: So many great options of vegan food

Kid-friendliness: Lot of nice kids meals and room for kids to move around in

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access to exit in entrance to the restaurant“

“I always come here. I know my food is going to be right, not take too long and delicious! I always get Chicken W/mixed veg and General TSO's. Occasionally I'll do the chicken wings (crispy-- they get me right every time) 10-15 min tops for takeout and short time for delivery as well. The service is always pleasant and welcoming. If it's something I need or want for my order, they always accommodate. Will always continue to go here. Thank you“

“usually always yummy and spot on never had any issues but i am a bit disappointed today as my Crab Rangoons were overcooked and had BURNT areas and some were shaped oddly and also small which i never experienced, disappointed that they would serve those as i’ve spent money and expected the usual i’ve always been served. still good overall. wish i would have taken photos. usually 5 star but minus 1 for today :(“

“We used to live nearby and ordered here frequently. That was 25 years ago. We decided to go by there last week (and again tonight) and the service is as good as ever and the owners still remembered us. Food is reasonably priced and delicious!“

“Great food, nice portions!“

“I love this place, the price is good, food is great and the customer service is excellent. Sometimes the kids are around when I go in to pick up my orders. They're great kids. They're so well behaved and cute. This is a working family and a community staple. Thank you guys. Your chicken wings are always PERFECT!“

“I haven't been here sinc the early 2000s when I moved further away. It's just as good as I remember. Pork egg fu Yung was tasty with lots of pork. Shrimp with lobster sauce has a light delicate sauce. Egg roll was tasty. And the food wasn't greasy or too salty. I'll be back sooner.“

“I recently ordered the firat time here and got the scallop meal from How Wah Chinese Restaurant, and while the scallops were absolutely amazing perfectly cooked and full of flavor. I was a bit disappointed that the fries were missing from my order. The portion size also felt more like a kid’s meal than a full entrée. That said, the quality of the scallops really stood out, so I’m willing to give them another try and hope for a better experience next time.“

“Got takeout from here last night. Everything was very good - shrimp rolls appeared to be made in-house, Hot & Sour soup had nice flavor & lots of ingredients. We got the Hunan Chicken - tasty! - had a different type of spice than typical Chinese. Also, the Beef with Garlic Sauce, which leaned to sweet rather than spicy despite the little red pepper next to it on the menu. Both had ample & tender meat with a colorful mix of vegetables. All cooked well with lots of sauce - if too much for you, recommend dishing with a slotted spoon. Also, nice crunchies with for the soup!“

“Only 2nd time here. Everything was great.. I order crip sesame shrimp. Young lady said it will be 1.50 I said ok. And I got to choose another meat so I got broccoli and beef. SO that was over 12.00 so I got home and I only had 3 shrimp I was very upset to see I had to pay extra and only got 3 shrimp what am I paying extra for.. I took a picture this time at this place which I'm going to start doing so all my followers can see 👀.. I think were paying to much for a plate of rice , broccoli and a few pieces of beef.. this is highway robbery. Everyone have a wonderful evening and enjoy life... p.s. my roommate got rice and orange chicken he had a very nice portion.. I had to wait for some shrimp got done and sorry but disappointed they need to tell us it's a 1.50 more for 3 shrimp unreal ...“

“Literally the best Chinese I’ve had in so long. It’s reliably good unlike most takeout spots and everyone is super friendly. My food was ready SO quickly even on a Saturday dinner time, and was absolutely delicious. I really couldn’t have had a better experience.

I’m so glad I decided to try Panda again after they came to the children’s hospital with free food for staff and it made my whole month. Brook road campus never really gets thought of so it was super special and we were all so happy.“

“I've been eating here for years and years. Best chicken wings of anywhere. Friendly people, good food, close to home! I couldn't ask for more!

Well, things change including (I think) ownership and/or cooks. I hadn’t been in for several years, so I went in for some comfort food. One of items I got, the egg drop soup, tasted of sesame oil so strongly it was actually unpleasant. I was so disappointed.“

“I love this place. The eggrolls are crispy and delicious. The rice is great white rice. I DoorDash it like twice a week. I get the boneless spare ribs, and I’ve genuinely gotten a consistent meal each time. Always sweet and savory, they give you plenty of soy/duck sauce. I recently got the fried donuts, yummy! Would be good with icing :) love this place 9//0 in my heart.!“

“We RARELY order Chinese takeout but did from here on a whim just before closing. Did not disappoint. Everything was seasoned well and the egg rolls (which I usually don’t like) were great! My kids, who are picky eaters, ate the leftovers for breakfast ❤️“

“The chicken lo mein with extra vegetables is a 10 out of 10. Absolutely delicious with soy sauce and whatever broth they use. Don't get this meal without adding extra vegetables it won't taste the same. It's a 6 out of 10 without it.“

“Wow! I had such an amazing delivery experience. Food arrived promptly and delivery driver was very friendly. Not to mention such a chill order taker guy! Dinner was so tasty and flavorful. I ordered the Mongolian beef and shrimp egg rolls. The portions were more than enough and the taste and tenderness was what I really hoped for when ordering the dish. I hope I don't sound like AI or a fake post, because there are some bad reviews. I read them after ordering, so glad I did. No regrets great food, and restaurant level delivery. Nostalgia in your mouth give it a try!“
