14 Best Chinese Restaurants in Woodbridge

“Excellent food and service!!!!!!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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. 👍“

“This is the best Chinese food in the area and no one can tell me otherwise. Been coming here as a kid and some how the food keeps getting better.

Staff is friendly over the phone and the food is cooked with love you cant ask for more.“

“First thing the people are VERY friendly! They greet you with a smile! I love that!

Secondly the food. It was VERY GOOD! The Vegetable Spring Roll(or Vegetarian Spring Roll as they call it) was absolutely the BEST I've ever had in my life! I know it seems like a small thing but it, for me is a favorite. It was the same size as the Eggroll and filled with your standard delicious ingredients. It was perfectly crispy and I cannot wait to get more! I have a feeling I will be coming to get these as a little snack way more than I should!

The General Tso's was probably also the best I've ever had as well. Delicious white meat chicken with a perfect sauce & lots of it! It could be a bit crisper but I'm going to ask if they can make it crisper next time.

I also got a small Wonton Soup and boy let me tell you that DEFINITELY hit the spot! My mom used to get it EVERY time we got Chinese food when I was a kid so there is a lot of nostalgia in it for me, but I had HIGH expectations because I haven't hardly had it but maybe a handful of times since I was a kid. This met & possibly exceeded my expectations! The broth was PERFECT!

Even the White Rice seemed fresher & tastier than other places!

In summary, in my humble & honest opinion you can't go wrong ordering from here & I will most definitely be back & be a regular customer!“

“Love the Garlic Twin“

“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!“

“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.“

“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!“

“Senior Citizens of Woodbridge had lunch last Thursday. Excellent food with lots of diversity and quality for a great price. Best ever!!!“

“I was craving walnut shrimp, and I took a chance on this restaurant. I received something that doesn't resemble the creamy white sauce I was anticipating, but it's not bad. It's actually pretty good, and if I wasn't specifically craving that sweet Americanized white sauce, I wouldn't be bothered and tuck in. Unfortunately for me, that's what I'm craving and I just wanted to give others a heads-up.“

“I had an experience where I ordered via the app to the wrong location. Beth- the manager got me the number for the home office. The home office was able to help me as this was my first time with this issue. Beth saw me sitting and trying to fix the situation and came over to check on me twice. Always ready to catch my eye and help if she was needed. Once I was able to put the order in the app for the correct location Beth made my order right away so I could get my long awaited lunch. The process took a while but Beth made it feel so much smoother. Im also happy with the efforts of home office and the fact that I could call and talk to a real person.

Ill be back because the service for me waa above and beyond.
Thank you Beth!!“
