50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Oakton

“Food was absolutely delicious and ready pretty quick! I got shrimp fried rice-- shrimp was large and well cooked! Very flavorful! I also got crab rangoon-- real crab meat and oh so good! I had to ask for the sweet and sour sauce for it, but the lady was polite and gave it to me. It was sooo crunchy, warm and delicious! And I got fried chicken wings.. and they nailed it!! It was crispy and cooked so well! Batter was delightful! Very good overall! I will come back!“

“We feed a group from here every month, everyone loves it!!“

“This is our fourth time ordering from Chan’s Kitchen, and they’ve been very consistent. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and reliable, which is why we keep coming back. Friendly and welcoming staff.

The only reason I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that the egg rolls can sometimes be a bit greasy, but tastes really good.
Overall, still a solid go-to spot for Chinese food and definitely recommended.“

“From the moment we walked into Umpli Dumpling, we knew we were in for something special. The atmosphere is welcoming. The food is absolutely delicious; our waiter, Jonathan, recommended the fried pork chops, the new pork belly, and the chicken ramen.

However, what truly stood out was the service. Our waiter, Jonathan, was exceptional. He knew the menu inside and out, gave us excellent recommendations, and made sure our drinks were never empty. It's rare to find such a great combination of food and top-notch hospitality. We will definitely be back!“

“Love this hidden gem. Food is great every time.“

“It was hard to get table waited 30 mins it was during busy period. We always get lettuce wraps, lomein, and shrimp. Its our go to basic Chinese place but very expensive. On the menu there is a chefs meal option where's its a set od dishes dor 20 dollars looks solid good for another 1 person wirh you to share.“

“This place is subpar. Food was average, not worth the price. However, I will absolutely be coming back due to the service. Andrew did everything in his power to accommodate my family. I don’t think I’ve seen a server as personable, competent, and willing to fulfill our wants and needs. He seems to go out of his way in order to make us feel welcome, and that no task is too small. He even made our kids happy! Any request they had, he was on top of. Very attentive, respectful, and polite! Maybe this guy should be a manager….? He checked on us more than the actual managers did, even though he was clearly busy; I don’t think I saw a manager my entire time. I would have loved to praise him to a higher up. KEEP THIS GUY! I love the new lamps on the table, it gives a little more light, and makes me feel like I’m not in a dungeon. Host seemed very disinterested in helping, and very monotoned. Not necessarily how I want to feel when I walk in. Didn’t really feel welcome until our server came along.“

“We stumbled upon Chef Tan by complete chance and it has quickly become a family favorite. The food is absolutely amazing, but what really sets them apart is the service. The lady who takes our orders is incredibly kind and welcoming. I love her.

Most importantly, they are so accommodating with their flavor, they always adjust the spice levels for my husband and kids who prefer milder dishes. It’s rare to find an authentic spot that is this flexible, clean and family friendly“

“I almost didn’t walk into Hunan Taste. When I saw pho on the menu, I hesitated. I know pho. I’ve had it done right, and when a Chinese place throws it on the menu, it usually means they’re trying to be everything to everyone.

But I’m glad I went in.

I ordered what I always judge a place by — roast pork and lo mein. If you can’t get that right, nothing else matters. The roast pork was legit. Flavorful, not dried out, not that bland filler meat some of these pop-up spots use. Mix it with the lo mein? That’s a winning combination every time.

Then came the egg roll. Not a spring roll. A real egg roll. Thick wrapper, crispy, hearty filling.

But what sealed it for me was the mustard. Homemade Chinese mustard — the real deal, the kind that clears your sinuses and lets you know someone back there cares.

If you’re in Springfield and you want solid Chinese food, this is a good spot. I’ll be back.“

“Our first time here and we will definitely be back...the cumin lamb is delicious and the brown sugar ice jelly is really good and so much fun to eat. Hui, our host was so engaging and patient with explaining the different dishes. Definitely a great date night destination“

“Ordered takeout from here several times. Good portions and food is freshly cooked and piping hot! Angie at the register is friendly and courteous and sometimes puts extra things like mints or stickers in your order! 😊
They are mostly a takeout place, but also have 2-3 tables if you want to dine in.“

“My husband and I have been dining in or placing a take out at least once a month at Peter Chang McLean for the past year and a half! We were so excited to finally find a chinese restaurant that is somewhat formal and provide good quality ingredients! I'm super picky with my meat (the , but the fresh meat, vegetables, and other ingredients truly satisfy my particular self. They never disappoint with the quality of the food and the temperature! We have tried at least 80% of their menu items, including the AYCE lunch menus, and our go-to items are: pan seared shrimp dumplings, dragon garlic spicy eggplants, singapore curry noodles, shrimp lo mein, spicy dry fried bamboo fish, numbing green peppercorn flounder, sesame chicken (it's online, not in the menu), and spicy kong pao chicken. The waitstaff and manager are all so nice in addition to the great food! We will continue to go back and we're so happy people are finding a good quality chinese food!“

“Top notch Chinese! This is my second visit here, first visit I only ordered shrimp fried rice. I’m so glad I returned. This place has it all, reasonable prices, excellent customer service, and quality and tasty meals. For my family I ordered fried chicken and fries for my son, shrimp egg foo young for my wife and I and orange chicken and fried rice for my older son. The store was filled with customers which had me excited. This is the spot! The cashier brought everyone’s takeout food to them with a smile on her face. It seemed like she knew all of her customers. I took my food home to my family and the food was phenomenal. Extra shrimp in the egg foo young, seasoned chicken wings, everything was great. I can’t wait to return to order more food. I’ll recommend this place to anyone!“

“Great food by superb Chef. He's been there for many years. I've had many of us dishes and all scrumptious! Delicious Healthy Menu food too.“

“A&J was a delicious find! The food was amazing and hit the spot. Small dining area, but perfect for taking out. Parking is a little rough- the lot itself is falling apart and full of massive holes. Parking can be tight.“

“Nice Cafe, good flavor Chinese food .. but they use Styrofoam for takeout. UGH.. which means all the sauce spills into bottom of the bag. NOT GOOD.“

“Nice menu for “fast casual” with some flair. The fresh ginger and red chili oil are nice condiments for the noodles. Loved Thai iced tea. So much more I’d like to try.“

“This location is it!! The other locations don’t compare in terms of service and quality of food. Everything tastes fresh and so flavorful!

I tried the Herndon and McLean location. Every time I go, it just misses something compared to here.

Customer service is simple and straight forward. They’re always looking out at the tables in case anyone needs anything and they’re fast!

Recommended dishes: Sichuan beef noodle soup, hot and sour beef brisket golden soup, cucumber salad w/garlic, fried pork chop with minced pork and fried egg over rice, black vinegar cold noodles, and pork/peppercorn soup dumplings“

“This place has great Chinese food!! Love how it’s piping hot even after the 15 drive home after pickup or when they deliver. All of the fried rice dishes, beef chow fun, chicken with broccoli, beef chow mein are some of our favorites. They’re also very nice and friendly. Super quick too.

Can’t rate ambience. We always get to go or delivery.“

“This is my go to chinese restaurant! I have been ordering from here for years and not once have I been disappointed. The food is always so good and the portions are perfect. I love rice so I always make sure I get the pork fried rice, its literally the best fried rice in my opinion. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place.“

“We ordered the pan-fried noodle and triple delight. Both dishes were cooked to perfection. Service was excellent and we plan to make this a regular stop for dinner. The portions were very generous. I should have taken a picture but by the time I thought of it my dish was half empty. Next time.“

“I got bored of eating Chinese food, but this place is incredible, food taste soo good, totally different from other restaurants i have try. Is a small business but to takeout is perfect. I have try almost every dish of this place, and what can i say, is all tasty. Love this place.“

“I'm from NYC, grew up on Chinese food, and very critical of restaurants in general. The Asian Cafe Chantilly is an outstandingly excellent restaurant. The quality of the food is uniformly the very best I've had, and the service is highly responsive, flexible, and professional. I very strongly recommend the Asian Cafe Chantilly. It's actually worth a long drive if you live far away, that's how great this place is.“

“Exceptional dining experience at this Chinese restaurant, tucked away in a neighborhood mall complex. The setting isn’t super fancy, but the food is genuinely authentic, packed with rich flavors, and presented beautifully. Portion sizes are generous, offering excellent value. The restaurant’s cleanliness stands out, and the staff provides prompt, attentive service. For anyone seeking high-quality Chinese cuisine in a cozy location, this spot is a true gem.“

“When I came in I was greeted very warmly by a lady and she helped me to order food since it was my first time at this restaurant. The food prices are so affordable and the taste is so immaculate🤤 after I got my food the lady made sure everything was to my liking. The food came out very quickly which was really nice! If you’re seeing this review please come and try the crab rangoons here!!! It was one of my favorites along with their fried chicken.. SO GOOD!!!“

“as a regular, the authentic Chengdu laziji (spicy chicken) congxiang yu (scallion fish) and ziran yang (cumin lamb) are my go to favorites“

“The dishes are even cleaner tasting and less salty than before, and we love the new chicken wonton soup. The chefs have creatively used spices and ground halal meat to recreate pork dishes. Great for those who eat halal but also for those who don't want to feel bloated after a Chinese meal. We loved the chicken broccoli and moo shoo and will be ordering again for this healthier take on American Chinese food.“

“Amazing place! The food is absolutely delicious and full of authentic flavor. The owner is such a kind and welcoming person, which made the experience even better. A true hidden gem – highly recommended! A must go to place every time visiting DMV area.“

“Though this place has a couple tables, it spends its budget on the food versus space and decor. It keeps costs low by having a very small place down a side road. Parking is free and most times you can park right outside of it. They offer delivery but is popular for take out. The people at the counter are very nice. I recommend their Kung Pao chicken. It is the best.“

“Many traditional Chinese dishes along with Americanized favorites. They may attempt to coax you into changing your mind if you’re not Asian and you want something traditional.“

“It was my first time here and the atmosphere is so nice. Everything was clean and bright. Our waitress Anna was so amazing and we really appreciated her explaining some menu items to us. She even recommended a few items and they were all delicious. I would definitely come back.“

“Great meal - especially for those all day dim sum dumpings. Food is great - service sadly not so much but still worth it! Staff is really rude til they give you the bill which is extremely reasonable, they squish you into tables with bars that hit your shins too, tables of 6-10 be mindful of that! Otherwise excellent food just waited awhile for service and again they were ride literally hit my head with plates or elbows from behind without warning. Still love it.lol we all laughed sooo hard when 5 of my boys ordered a drink (soda/lemonade) which came
in a bottle and to go my son whom previously ordered water, ordered a soda to go thinking it to would be a bottle to go arrived in a cup full of ice!!! We all died laughing-the look of shock and disappointment was hysterical! Great food, and great price. Just watch where you sit at the folding tables - especially if you’re tall like all of us.

Our precise experience was better - food arrived they let us know and moved the lazy Susan accordingly.“

“Food was prepared exactly how I was expecting. Their beef sticks, sweet and sour chicken, and egg roles were incredible. Staff was friendly to me in the store. I ordered takeout and they made sure to remind me to grab sauces and utensils before I left. That may seem small but was important to me. Will 100% be back“

“We needed to order for a large group with multiple food allergies on Christmas Eve. A difficult task. Hunan assured us that their kitchen practices would keep everyone safe, and they delivered on that promise!

We had no issues with finding menu options that were peanut, tree nut, and gluten allergy friendly. There was no jumping through hoops, and when we placed an online order they had sections to add food notes AND a separate section just for making note of allergies!

The food was delicious: all the dishes were well seasoned, the meat was very tender, and the portions were so generous! They also gave us so many fortune cookies! Thank you Hunan for feeding our family holiday celebration!“

“This is the most authentic chinese restaurant in Fairfax county. We had the best chinese new year dinner for our family of 10. Delicious food, good service, and very reasonable price. When i pre-ordered gluten free Peking duck they offered to pick up fresh Giant lobsters for our table. That was the best suggestion and most thoughtful and it was delicious with beautiful presentation. Love this restaurant! Highly recommend it, from a picky chinese grandma.“

“I was not familiar with this place but my family was craving for real Chinese food! I checked good places near and decided to try China Express. To be honest when I parked in the front I was skeptical but follow my willingness to discover new places but when I got in and received by a very kind staff and felt the yummy smell from the kitchen I thought it was going to be good! I ordered fried rice, noodle soup, general tso chicken and some house lo mein, it was extremely delicious! Food quality is top and service was simply amazing! This is a hidden gem in Tysons and definitely will come back! Superb!“

“This place is incredible. I am not aware of any other luosifen noodle house in the area. If you, like me, are a newcomer to this style of noodle soup, you are going to be extremely impressed. The bone broth is bracing, complex, and flavorful, far richer and deeper than pho or tonkotsu. Recommend getting it spicy: it brings all the flavors together without being overwhelming. Additionally, the Sichuan menu is one of the best in the area, second only to Mama Chang's and Hong Kong Palace. This place is pretty new and trying to get its feet underneath it. Let's support high quality food!“

“I still think they make some of the best soup dumplings this side of the MD/VA border - we won’t compare with the bountiful Rockville area of course!
This has been my go to place for soup dumplings for a few years now - I have taken it out successfully-
This last time I tried the schezwan green beans and couldn’t stop eating it
I’ve had the crispy chicken (3/5), fried rice (3/5) and some of the other dishes .in a nutshell - comfort Chinese takeout
The staff there has always been super friendly! Special shoutout to them“

“AT Hunan West about twice a month. Variety and quality very good. Service is good--and friendly. Norman“

“Overall this restaurant is our favorite for Chinese food. The food is delicious and the service is impeccable. Recommend the Sweet and Sour Chicken as well as the Kung pao dishes.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Hunan Cafe in Burke is my go-to spot! The food is always fresh, portions are generous, and the flavors never disappoint. I’m a spice lover, and they always nail my extra, extra, extra spicy requests.

Service is fast, the staff is friendly, and the restaurant is clean and simple. Prices are super reasonable, and they don’t skimp on the protein.

The only downside? They’re closed on Mondays—but that just makes Tuesday taste even better. 😋“

“I ordered ahead the person who answered was friendly. When I arrived the process to pay was easy and the cashier was pleasant. There were several tables with chairs for dining in so I decided to stay and eat. The tables were clean. The interactions with the incoming customer were very personable, calling each person My Friend. I had the Orange Chicken with White Rice. It was good and hot.“

“Had a little problem getting my delivery order ( Doordarshan sucks) A bit later I received a call, the owner heard about my issue and wanted to make it right. He went above and beyond to guarantee my satisfaction. L He heard of my problem and went out of his way to make sure I had a hot delicious meal. Most companies don't care but this one is on another level. Many thanks Hunan Star!“

“Great food, reasonable price, fast service!“

“Excellent food and customer service.“

“Food delicious, spacious, clean and courteous servers“

Ordered the following carryout lunch specials for myself and the kids.- General Tso's Chicken- Crispy Orange Chicken- Chicken with Broccoli- Sweet & Sour Pork- Pork Fried RiceThe gentleman behind the counter was nice and smiled when I entered.The prices were really reasonable and the portion size across the board was good.The kids and I enjoyed everything, especially the orange chicken and sweet and sour pork. We'll be sure to come back.“

“The service is great, the meal portions are big, the food is exceptional. Honestly, my favorite dish they serve is General Tso Chicken, but all of the dishes they serve taste good. The people there are friendly too. This place is a must go to and I highly recommend going here and having a bite of real authentic Chinese food. :)“

“Delicious food, large portions,and wonderful owners!“
