9 Best Chinese Restaurants in Lakewood

“This is our FAVORITE place to eat.
We love authentic Chinese, especially Szechuan.

We have searched for spicy cold noodles forever…their Szechuan cold noodles are excellent!!!!!

We also LOVE the Szechuan dumplings! We order these two appetizers every time.

The staff is so wonderfully friendly and love to share their food with you…if they make a recommendation, just say yes!“

“This is inside Paldo Market in Lakewood on South Tacoma Way in the food court section. The food has always been very good here. However, prices may seem a little high due increases in food cost, labor, rent, business taxes.
I enjoy (not pictured) spicy fried chicken wings ($24 + tax). Their spicy seafood noodle soup is a good choice also. This is a place to enjoy a good lunch.“

“The food and service is Gold star perfect! Food is always delicious, and our service has always been first class. Have driven 85 miles one way for last 2 years to have our anniversary dinner there. And it's always excellent!“

“This is a review from 20 years ago when me and my dad were at Ft. Lewis. This Chicken Bowl spot was the absolute best I ever had and the Korean grandma was an absolute sweetheart tried to teach me a little bit Korean as well.

The most memorable part of this place was the Teriyaki sauce. It was sweet, but not teeth aching, it was savory with hoisin, umami fermented flavor, and it wasn’t so bold and rich that overwhelmed the grilled chicken and rice combo.

It is a core memory for me and will never forget the taste of it until I die. My only regret is not buying a gallon of the stuff from them as a kid lol!!“

“I have been eating here since the late 90’s. Their Menu has basically been the same. The Sesame Chicken portion has changed, as different owners have taken over the business, but the flavor hasn’t! (You still get the sweet little crystallized chunks in the corner of the to-go plate. IYKYK) Their Garlic Chicken Wings are also a Classic, & are a must, with their Homemade Sweet & Sour Sauce. ??“

“Bahn Mi was very good, lots of meat and veggies & not dry like other places. The iced coffee was also good, and the prices are more than fair. The lady at the counter was lovely, my food was ready very fast. Also the bathroom was super clean.“

“It was my first time here and the Pho did not disappoint! It was really delicious, and the way it was packaged for to-go was great! The only thing that was concerning was the signs on the drive-thru. Sounds like the owner has gone through some rough times with customers. Despite this, it was great!“

“I had been coming here for years with my family, and it is a very cozy spot for some delicious and authentic Korean food. The tteokbboki is probably some of the best I had in Lakewood and the yakisoba was so good I ate the whole plate. I came on the last day before the owner was going to close the restaurant, and it was a good meal. Sad to see samwon go though 🥹“

“The food is good, BUT in that past year they have become SOoooo EXPENSIVE and its NOT worth the money any longer. The portions used to be larger and now they barely fill their boxes. Not going back because of those reasons. They need to drop the prices again and add more food to boxes again.“
