13 Best Chinese Restaurants in Roanoke

“Our usual place was closed so we decided to try a whole new place and it was a good choice! The general tsos isn’t drowning in sauce which made it so much better in my opinion. The vegetable lo mein had a very generous vegetable to noodle ratio and great flavor, and the chicken fried rice was great as well. The place was crowded as can be with people out the door, but we’d called ahead and I was able to get in and out quickly.

Parking: The parking lot is small and can be difficult to get in and out of on a busy night.“

“Yum yum yum yum yum yum yum“

“I had been wanting to try this place for so long and I’m so glad I did! I’m a picky eater and I would typically get my Hibachi dishes from Sakura. But I think I’ve found my new go-to spot!! I placed a to-go order and because she thought it would take 10-15 minutes, she gave me a free drink! These are very sweet people and the food was incredible! The portions are great too!! The food and customer service are of high quality!! Check it out when you get a chance!!“

“I ate here a few times several years ago and it was horrible. Recently, I tried them again and I'm so glad I did. The food was incredible! Night and day difference from my previous experiences. It's so good I've eaten there three times in a week. They must have new owners because all the staff are so friendly and kind now. Before thy were unfriendly and not very pleasant.“

“Good food if you go during the day for lunch. Don't go for dinner. They sell out of food early and won't put anymore out even when they are still open. Good lunch spot. Don't count on going for dinner and them actually having food to sell. Don't waste your time going for dinner. Drove out of my way bc my son loves this place. Got there at 5 and half the food was out, i asked if they could make some of the items that was empty they said no. They looked closed and I felt like I was bothering them. Lunch ok, dinner no.“

“My husband and I eat here at least once per week for several years and are never disappointed. Consistently the best Chinese anywhere. The hostesses, servers/wait staff, and just everyone are polite, friendly, efficient.“

“Hadn't had China Lite in years, but had a craving for Chinese food on my lunch break so I ordered it and everything was so fresh and delicious. China Lite is one of the only places that doesn’t put egg in their fried rice. The sweet and sour chicken was fresh and delicious.“

“The only Chinese restaurant I prefer to eat at in Roanoke. I like their yellow fried rice better than the typical fried rice found at other places soaked in soy sauce, grease, or cooked too long. Their food is always consistent and tastes fresher.“

“Why is it saying temporarily closed,? This was my favorite place to eat, what's going on, it's the only place that has the best shrimp egg rolls, hell best everything, every time I get food just for me I eat it for 3 days from how much I get in the med size portions, love it rewarmed on micro makes it taste even better, please reopen soon need some good Chinese food everyone else can't cook like you guys.“

“Beef Nigimaki and Orange peel Shrimp were excellent and so was the service. Thanks Shirley“

“Always Wonderful“

“Great place to eat a buffet of Chinese and it's very reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend anyone to eat here and you will not be disappointed I've eaten here several times and I'll come back very soon it's definitely worth the 45 min to hour drive. 😋😊👍

Parking: Just regular park yourself and walk-in“

“I have one of these back home in JC, Tennessee. And man let me tell you that this location in Roanoke BLOWS the JC one out of the water!

Never have I ever had fresh sushi that tasted like it was a sushi based restaurant at a BUFFET!

Some other items were just alright, but the sushi and grill were OUT of this water!

I definitely recommend getting their honey chicken, grill, sushi, white rice (cooked to perfection), and egg rolls! I’m very harsh when it comes to egg rolls but the ones here taste just like they do back at home!

And all of this for less than 20 bucks? You could never go wrong with this eatery!“
