50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Newcastle

“The food came out fast, fresh, and full of flavor. Thai chili beef, string beans and toothpick lamb were all delicious. Portions were generous, and the prices were reasonable. Great spot for a quick, satisfying meal if you’re craving something warm and savory.“

“Tasty. I didn’t look Chinese enough to them therefore no Chinese menu was offered. No biggie but I saw what I wanted to try from other patron’s table. It’s likely called Hakka stir fry. The orange chicken was tasty however dark meat was used, therefore hubs wasn’t completely satisfied. Of course will come back again. Go before busy dinner crowd arrive, between 4-5pm.“

“The food was excellent, and the waitress was very attentive. I had the wonton soup, crispy honey walnut chicken, garlic string beans, and the short ribs. Every dish was very good. If I had to choose a favorite it was probably the honey walnut chicken because it had a very satisfying crispy texture on the outside.“

“Great food and quick service.“

“The service was great . I liked the fish items .“

“The food tastes great! It has a fairly authentic flavor reminiscent of ones from china. My only complaint is a minor nitpick is that the store's space isn't the biggest but i didnt find seating an issue over all i would recommend giving it a try!“

“I ordered the hotpot noodle soup. The soup was hot and delicious. The broth was rich but not overwhelming. Our server added all the ingredients and stirred our soup together for us! I really appreciated it. Overall, would definitely come again.“

“Went Monday at 2 PM. No line not busy. I like how you can make your own sauce to go with your meal. You pick your food put it in the bowl, then you pay for it and pick whatever soup base.

I will definitely come here again.“

“Been there twice and tried most of the vegetarian dishes, and LOVE all them! Great food, decor and service! Will go back with more friends! 😍“

“Beef onion buns are a must try!!“

“So good! Food was served quickly & SO delicious. Staff was friendly and very accommodating. Quick to clear our table of empty dishes. Highly recommend! We will be back very soon!“

“Outstanding services, They're extremely friendly and the food was delicious.“

“We tried three signature dishes. The fried pork chop was well-done, with the juicy and scripy texture. Best enjoyed with a dip of soy source. The panfried dumplings have a thick skin and a filling with overpowering ginger flavor… The wontons are large and filled to the brim, but skin is also slightly thick. Perhaps that’s the Shanghai style, but if you prefer dumplings with thin skin, this is not the right place for you.“

“OMGosh so extremely delicious! We just picked a whole assortment of yummies and hot n sour soup--- everything came out crazy fast and was amazing and the staff was extremely attentive 👏 😋 🙌 😍 👌“

“Constantly amazing. Good is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Amanda is amazing!
She totally rocks — the best service ever! We stopped by tonight after a long day at work, just looking for some hot soup on this rainy day, and she made our visit so wonderful. Couldn’t imagine a more professional and caring service — she went above and beyond for us! So happy we came by. 💛will be back!“

“Both the environment and the service are very good“

“Stopped here for the first time today to pick up lunch. Loved the flavor and taste of each of three dishes we tried. This will now be our favorite Chinese restaurant in the area. Crispy & Spicy Fish 香辣鱼 & Szechuan Chicken 四川鸡 were particularly good.“

“Amazing food! The Mongolian Beef is a must have. Also enjoyed potstickers, green beans, orange chicken, all of it was amazing. The owner is very kind. We brought our special needs child with us to dine in and she went above and beyond to make it a comfortable experience.“

“Best dim sum and ramen! My son could not believe what he was eating! We love their food and friendly service and cannot wait to go back. We drive down from two counties north! It’s a worthwhile pilgrimage.“

“Came in for lunch to a modest looking family owned establishment. Greeted by nice lady at the counter where we ordered some poke. Friendly service, seems like a small family operation with maybe two people running front and back. The meal came out when it came out but we weren’t at all in hurry. Generous portions and quality of fish surprised me for being all the way out in Kent. Looking forward to definitely come back again.“

“The service was very fast and very friendly, the food was prepared very fast as well and it was all delicious! I would recommend this restaurant to anyone that enjoys authentic Chinese cuisine. They also speak English and have English names on the menus as well!“

“Best wonton noodle soup place in the area. Family owned and managed.

Every time I am here, they are always packed. It will take them a while to get your orders in, to pay, to get their attention in general. Last time, I had to pick up my own soup spoon from the front cashier because there was literally none prepared on the table. I’d recommend going to the cashier directly to pay.

They also offer frozen wonton for you to cook yourself at home.

Overall, I highly recommend the food. Just give them a bit of grace when they’re busy :)“

“xi an noodles was my favorite food“

“The atmosphere is bare-bones, but clean and friendly. We ordered the large pork belly and short rib combo to split between two people and were not prepared for the absolute feast we received! The sides and dessert were delicious and the main dish tasted like home-cooked comfort food. Tender meats and huge chunks of vegetable in a savory broth really hit the spot on a cold and soggy day. The value for the price can't be beat - it was enough for a large lunch plus dinner the next day for two people. We will be back to try more dishes!“

“Told the owner who was working the counter that I was going through chemotherapy and needed a recommendation on something mild and easy on the stomach. He did a great job picking something out for me, someone who is not an adventurous eater. He chose garlic chicken w/ green beans. Never tried anything like it and I thought it was great! It was very easy on my stomach. 11/10, will be going there all the time while I’m in treatment.“

“We have come here for many years. It been awhile since we came back. We like their new menu looks like it been recently updated. We ordered our usual of: -Vietnamese Sweet & Sour Catfish Soup -Catfish in Clay Pot/Stew -Rice Today we also tried: -Crispy Oysters -Salted Fish Fried Rice -Three Color Dessert -Thai Dessert It wasn't too busy today, we got a table right away for a family of our. The servers were nice and friendly. Our desserts were bought out first, and soon after the main dishes. Our usual dishes is the tasty as usual. Our favorite as a family is the fried oysters. Our young kids liked it best with the sweet sauce (not spicy). The sizing of the oysters are large and it tasted excellent. Overall, it was a wonderful dining night with the whole family. We will be back as usual! We highly recommend this place! They got some of the dishes we love that keeps us coming back for more!“

“Great food and customer service“

“I had such a wonderful experience here! The roasted pigeon was incredibly flavorful, the beef cubes were tender and juicy, and the stir-fried beef rice noodles were perfectly cooked with great wok aroma. Everything tasted fresh, and the food came out quickly. The service was friendly and attentive as well. Highly recommend this restaurant!“

“Saukraut fish may sound weird, but it is a stupendous invention and Nai Brother does it excellently. It has a wide variety of soup and fish options and all are really great. Mala spiciness with a combination of veggies, noodles, tofu, etc. Your tongue may be numb but you won’t regret it.

There are also good non-soup options and they also have whole fish dishes that we’re looking forward to trying. Love this place.“

“I had a great time at this karaoke spot! 🎤 The environment is clean, modern, and well-designed, with private rooms that feel comfortable and lively at the same time. The sound system is excellent, and the atmosphere makes it easy to relax and enjoy singing with friends. I was also pleasantly surprised by the food 🍽️ — the menu offers a good variety, and everything we ordered was fresh and flavorful. The snacks paired perfectly with our drinks and karaoke session. Overall, it’s a fun place to hang out, sing, eat well, and create great memories 🎶.
Highly recommended!“

“Pretty decent malatang with bold, spicy flavors. You build your own bowl from a variety of raw ingredients and pay by the pound. Great vegan options with plenty of fresh veggies, mushrooms and tofu to choose from. It’s very easy to overfill your bowl 😋 The “dry mixed” style options without soup tastes better to me.“

“Better than Din Tai Fung.
Sorry, it’s the truth. Not that I don’t love DTF, but these guys know dumplings, and noodles, and everything in between!
Any pan-fried dumpling dish is a MUST, and they also do green beans!
And the staff is super nice.
Everything is made in house and it’s always piping hot!“

“There are definitely some star dishes here! Maybe it's just me but I'm not really into the dishes they're known for, which is their chicken and soup. The texture wasn't really to my liking, as there was a lot of skin and fat to get through.“

“There aren’t a lot of great dumpling places back home, so we loved getting to try so many different delicious options here! I’d never had soup dumplings before, but I loved them. They were probably one of the highlights of the trip for my partner!“

“food was delicious. staff was very professional and courteous and friendly. awesome place to dine.“

“I've never eaten Taiwanese food before. I have definitely fell in love. Hands down, the best food I've ever eaten. 🤌“

“One of the best Chinese restaurants in town 👍“

“The service here is always friendly and attentive! I was offered a cup of water even with a takeout order and the server personally brought my food to the table where I was waiting. The staff is warm and welcoming every single time!

The portions are very reasonable. I also like that the combo meal offers soup or beverage options.“

“Great family owned business! Great customer service and delicious food! Party room service was terrific! Our guests loved the dinner!“

“This place is so good. I got the August Moon meal it was like 24 bucks but it came with sweet and sour shrimp and Mongolian beef with rice and wonton soup. It was so freaking good. I ate every single thing on the plate. Plus the lady that was waitressing was so friendly. This place is five stars all day long. You can tell that the food was made with love. It was hot and so tender. The Mongolian beef is the best I've ever had. Every single piece was so tender“

“I have been dining at Teapot for around 25 years, since their early Capitol Hill location. Over time and my evolving tastes and the changing vegan restaurant scene I have only grown more fond of this unique Jem. I was so bummed to hear they were supposed to close at the end of this year due to lease issues. But while visiting family I drove by and saw it open and sure enough their lease is extended for a year (at least). So go check out if you haven’t before, and pay another visit (or many) if you are already a fan. Updated from previous review on 2025-12-26“

“I went in semi naive to what was on the menu. Nothing stands out. You order at the counter. Understand that the dishes are larger to feed 2-3 people and their are no sides. Meaning if you like rice with your Asian cuisine it will be extra. Not realizing the size of the dishes I ordered 5 things and 2 sodas and a beer and 2 sides of rice which are small 1 person small and I spent with tip close to 140$+
It is in a strip mall so this is not meant to be fancy. Think small cafeteria style. Of the dishes the on that stood out for me was the chili shrimp. Otherwise pretty generic stuff. Beef had a diffrent texture to it that didn't suit me well. But if your into Asian cuisine make your own opinion. I more then likely won't go back. Quality of food for the money not a win for me.“

“Fantastic food, service is acceptable, aesthetic is unique, very authentic food, maybe to authentic for those unfamiliar. Seeing some of the reviews it sounds like some are expecting it to be akin to panda express, this is not that thankfully. Only drawback is location, there is outdoor seating but the interior is quite compact but not cramped like an airplane or train. 10/10 would recommend based off of service and food quality.“

“Best dumplings. Staff is very nice and kind.“

“I got take-out delivered. Delicious kung pao chicken. I asked for 1 star spice but it had plenty of peppers. Moved them aside and had a great meal with their jasmine rice. Portion size good for the price; looking forward to having seconds for lunch tomorrow!“

“Great services reasonable prices“

“Best I can tell it’s a place for Vietnamese uncles to hang out. They have coffee, but I didn’t see a menu anywhere for other options.

The ca phe sua da is realllyyyy good though, honestly better than most places here.

Also it smells heavily of cigarette smoke, so if you bothers you you might not like it.“
