13 Best Chinese Restaurants in Woodbridge

“I'm so happy I found this restaurant! The service was friendly, prices were outstanding especially with how much food you get! The other reviews about having leftovers weren't lying. The food was delicious and chicken was real chicken, not just stringy pieces like you'll get other places.“

“I only make it a point to leave reviews when it is absolutely called for, and this is one of those 'golden' times. ;)

The outstanding customer service I received at Golden Restaurant truly deserves to be highlighted. On an especially hot day, I walked in and was immediately offered a cold bottled water—completely free of charge. It was such a thoughtful gesture that set the tone for the rest of my visit.

When I called ahead to place an order for shrimp fried rice with customization (no msg, light on the soy sauce, very little oil), they listened intently and even repeated my requests so I can verify. Lo and behold, they delivered exactly what I asked for—the dish was cooked perfectly to my liking!

It’s rare these days, especially at a mostly pick-up-style restaurant, to find staff who are not only helpful but genuinely considerate and accommodating. The quality of service here goes far beyond expectations. I’ll definitely be returning—and recommending them to friends and family. Service like this deserves to be recognized!“

“My family’s been coming to Empire for the last 20 years, even after we moved 30 min away, this is still our primary Chinese takeout spot. My biggest mistake was not leaving this review sooner. Food is always great, incredibly quick. Sure, prices have gone up but food cost doesn’t just affect consumers, it affects businesses too, so while not ideal, I get it. Yesterday, my buddy and I ordered some food for carry out on our way out of his storage unit. Come to find out, if you don’t leave by 9pm, they lock you in, literally. I called Empire back to tell them of the situation, and without hesitation, they offered to bring our food to us at the storage unit despite being 5 minutes to closing by the time we figured out that the police officer’s code wasn’t going to work (we thought we were gonna have to stay the night). Not only that, when he realized our situation, he went back out to a gas station to get us utensils to eat our food there *and* got us 2 drinks. We ended up getting out very shortly after, but it really stuck in my head that this is one of the nicest things a complete stranger has done for me. I didn’t need any other reason to keep coming to Empire, but this validates my love for this place and the people that run it. The best part is the food was still warm when we made it back home. Can’t thank the Empire team enough. 👍“

“We have been going to Hunan Garden since they opened many years ago. They never let us down when we order. They always have great food and great service (back when we ordred by phone they knew what we wanted just by our phone# on their caller ID). Such a great place to eat.“

“Top China is not my normal Chinese place - I have been a Sampan faithful since before Top China opened. However Sampan is closed on Mondays (currently) and I was at Pitkins so I stopped in and ordered the General Tso Chicken lunch special takeout (currently $10.75 with tax). I was pleasantly surprised with everything (chicken, fried rice, egg roll) - it was delicious.“

“I noticed this place hasn’t gotten a review in a while and I was wanting some Asian food. I was pleasantly surprised due to how fresh the food tasted. Usually you can taste something has been sitting but this was really good. Will definitely go again. Most importantly the prices are perfect.“

“Excellent food and service!!!!!!“

“Highly recommend!! Been coming to China House since I moved to Virginia from New York. From all the Chinese food I've tasted here, this is the closest to the New York taste. It's like I'm back home! The food and prices are great!

Parking: Located in shopping strip mall. Plenty of parking.“

“I order lunch from here frequently because it is right next to my office building. They have the best Hot and Sour Soup I've found in the area. Steamed rice is super fluffy and no overcooked. Crab Rangoon is delicious! Delivery is super quick, too. Definitely recommend!

Vegetarian options: Hot and sour soup is great!“

“It was my first time… and I was craving some Chinese food. Seems like your typical strip mall Chinese food, but the food is prepared quickly and is exceptionally tasty! Additionally, the service is, in my particular instance, very kind and considerate! I’ll definitely go back when the craving hits!“

“I just visited this location. It was clean and all of the associates were friendly. Especially Ellen who prepared my meal! She was patient and provided service with a smile! The food was hot and looked fresh and there was a nice variety of options. Highly recommend.“

“I went there around 6 p.m. on a weekday, and the place was already packed. The food was warm, which was nice. One thing I wish they had was disposable gloves for picking up food. Some of the serving utensils were a bit sticky, and it felt uncomfortable holding them with bare hands.

This place isn’t really a Chinese buffet. It feels more like a general buffet that also caters to the Latino community. They didn’t even have fried rice; you cannot NOT have fried rice at a chinese buffet. They also had sushi, which honestly wasn’t great, but I didn’t go there for sushi anyway.

One thing that really stood out was the imitation crab soup. It was really good, and you don’t usually see that kind of soup at a buffet like this, so I was impressed. Other than that, it felt like a typical buffet experience but a little less.

For the price and the variety, I’d give it four stars, but I wouldn’t call it a Chinese buffet, just a buffet overall.“
