47 Best Chinese Restaurants near Spanaway

“This restaurant has the best fried chicken wings I tasted! They have unique flavor such as spicy honey garlic and lemon honey garlic sauce. As far as I know the spicy honey garlic is home made at the store. So freaking delicious. Only thing that is bad is the wait times for getting the delicious food.“

“New owners are really nice and food is great.“

“My wife went in for a 2go of our dinner tonight. It was by the far the BEST sushi and teryiaki ! The noodled from the yakisobi was also by the far the best they tasted the most real then other places. We will be eating here alot.
Thanks so much!!“

“Wonderful service and the food is very tasty.“

“Food was delicious & spicy. Ordered Mongolian Beef, Happy Family & Mapo Tofu (very spicy). I was surprised that NO white rice came with the entrees. Ordering thru Ubereats went smooth. I recommend this place. I look forward to trying other foods on the menu.“

“Been coming here for some time and have had a positive experience every time.
Enrique always has a smile and a positive Attitude.
Good luck on finding a whole meal for $10 anywhere let alone finding one that taste Good and is so filling . Big portions .
I got the lunch special Chicken beef/ teriyaki
It came with a nice portion of rice and fresh salad. My wife ordered the chicken and gyoza meal that was delicious!
They have only raised their prices One time that I am aware of in the last few years even thru covid and it was not extreme like most of the other restaurants.
I would say i would have raised them more myself.
I fed my wife and myself for $25
Good luck i'm finding that anywhere“

“Food was absolutely yummy. Easy to order. Efficient service“

“there food is absolutely delicious hands down best place around!“

“Owned by husband and wife who are there every time I go and are genuinely the nicest people I’ve ever met and always smile and welcome everyone who visits. I have never made any complaints about the food and they always do a fantastic job“

“Absolutely delicious and plentiful portions. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“This is always a great night. My wife and I often eat here on date night. The staff are really good about not bothering you while you eat and don't make you feel rushed. We will continue this stop in our date night rotation. You gotta try the egg foo young it's good.“

“Huge portions! Truly yummy! Loved the spring rolls --though ham and shrimp on them was unexpected. Great sauce! Also had meatball pho (so good!) and teriyaki, but one of our group thought chicken was overcooked and tough. Don't discount the place for being in a shared parking lot with a 76 has station and laundromat. We were very pleasantly surprised.“

“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!“

“We've been coming here over 20 years and it is still the best teriyaki around! I think it has changed hands or names a few times but it has always provided the best spicy chicken teriyaki I've ever had.

If you don't like it, you haven't tried it. Everything is awesome but highly recommend the spicy chicken special! Add gyoza or make it combination fried rice to change it up. No matter what, you won't be disappointed!“

“For what it is, this is a pretty good little place, nice and convenient, prices are pretty low and the food is mostly good. The batter on all the various chicken entrees could be fried a little longer, it is usually on the soggy side, but again this is a cheap eating kind of place, and for what you pay it aint too bad. The chicken chow mein and the mongolian beef are the 2 standouts for me. I got there often when I'm shopping or dont feel like driving far or spending alot on dinner. I would rate it slightly below safeway chinese, I give it 4 stars because it is good for what it is as I've said, a cheap decent place to get a quick bite.“

“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.“

“They need to do something about the flies. I don’t like trying to eat my dinner inside a restaurant fighting off flies. Years ago I didn’t have to pay for tea it came with your meal free. The wonton soup has no vegetables except onions. It has gone downhill over the years and it is very disappointing because they used to be my favorite Chinese restaurant. The cost has gone way up and the quality has gone way down for the amount you get!“

“This is the first time I came here. Got the General Taos Chicken with Vegetable Fried Rice, Chicken Lo Mein and an order of Crab Rangoons. The food was great, the only problem I saw was how much chicken was in the Chicken Lo Mein dish. There were maybe 8 pieces of chicken in it. But the portion sizes were good for the price and the lady who served us was friendly and the order was ready when I arrived. Overall not a bad experience here.“

“Honestly they offer some good American Chinese food in comparison to other malls in Washington. My boyfriend and I frequent here a lot as this was one of his go to spots for his lunch breaks when he worked at the mall. They give big portions and use big pieces of meat and vegetables in their dishes. I will agree that some of their dishes are bland but ask for some hot sauce or dip it in the sauces of some of your dishes and it makes it so much better. The Mandarin chicken sauce is my favorite to eat with chow mien.

The service is always friendly and prompt, they also ensure you get a good amount of food as I hate when I watch employees try to skimp out like at Panda Express or other mall food stalls. She also does it quickly so you don't have to wait long at all. They also ask if you would like a bag which is nice as other places will just give you the food without asking.“

“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 absolutely love this cuisine! The sweet fire chicken is amazing! I love that the food is always fresh. The service is always fast and you can get in and out in a breeze. Great place to stop in for a quick lunch or if you want to sit down with the family. And you cannot beat the prices for the portions that you get!“

“This place gave me the best experience of Korean-style Chinese food in the U.S. I’m originally from South Korea and lived in New York for the past four years, so I was really concerned about finding good food after moving to the Puget Sound area. New York is such a food paradise, especially for people from all over the world.

But now, I’m so happy I found this place 🥲 The food here was absolutely better than anything I had in Flushing or K-Town in NYC. I really wanted to eat Jjajangmyeon, and I’m so glad I didn’t let the older reviews stop me — they almost pushed me to try a different restaurant. The new owner just took over a month ago, and you can really taste the difference. Thank you so much for the amazing food!“

“Love this place, been going here for about 5yrs now.. sometimes if there really busy they are kind enough to give me soup while I wait, or if it's cold and nasty weather.. very kind.. and the cooks deserve a lot of credit as well.. thank you for help feeding my family.. wish I could eat there more..“

“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. ??“

“The best dumplings! Will be back again…. A LOT!“

“Fantastic!

I cannot recommend this establishment enough. The food is amazing, fresh flavors and so fast too! Every time I get a craving for pho I always get excited knowing I can stop by for a sensational bowl or have it delivered!

Definitely a must try in Lakewood!“

“Good Cambodian comfort food“

“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.“

“Sushi and Wok exceeded my expectations!
The service was genuinely amazing — super kind, quick, and made the whole experience feel welcoming. I wasn’t expecting such quality sushi and Asian food in this location, but everything I ordered was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented.

The sashimi was melt-in-your-mouth good, and the specialty roll had the perfect balance of spicy and creamy. I also ordered a cooked dish with fried rice and beef — it was packed with flavor and cooked just right.

You can tell they care about both the food and the people. Clean place, great portions, and a solid mix of sushi and wok-style dishes. I’ll definitely be coming back next time I’m in the area!“

“The definition of a mom & pop shop that cares about what they do. Food is consistently great. I always order take out and the dishes are still always well-prepared and presented, quick service, etc. If you’re in the area and haven’t tried it then you’re robbing yourself.“

“Harvest will be reopen on Jun 3rd.“

“Little hole-in-the-wall kind of place, but the food and service is great! Sometimes places like this are hidden gems, and I'd say that's the case with this restaurant. I'd definitely go back when I find myself out that way again.“

“Picked up the bulk office takeout order and overall this was a 4. Outdated building that has an odd smell when you come in and could use some love to the interior, but very fast and friendly service. Good sized portions but as another reviewer mentioned, sauce was a bit on the skimpy side compared to in the past - seems like an odd thing to cut back on. Delicious flavor on the chicken teriyaki and gyoza - would recommend!“

“great food, friendly atmosphere reasonable price“

“I have been coming here for years and the food is awesome!“

“Good Cambodian comfort food“

“great food and friendly service“

“Love this place great food fast service“

“2 of our party got the casino dinner and it was delicious. Best Chinese I have tasted in a long time. I had the prime rib, perfectly seasoned and the clam chowder and rolls for the table were so good! My husband had the salmon, perfectly seasoned and cooked. Total dinner for a table of 4 was $160 and we were stuffed. Our waiter was Jesus and he was a joy to work with.“

“I really appreciate the ladies up front. When it’s not busy they have time to visit with you and the cooks you never see but the food that comes out of the kitchen so some of the best ever definitely the best locally I’m a picky person when I order and they are so nice to make me happy. And I always come back“

“The food here is amazing, such an almost hidden gem. Owner at the front is very nice and whips up the food so fast. 15 minutes and I'm eating more than I can usually handle but its oh so yummy. Kids had the Pho and 10/10 would recommend; we had chicken teriyaki and have had some of the other teriyakis and they are all good 🤤🤤“

“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.“

“Probably best teriyaki spot I had around here. They have the lowest pricing compared to other Chinese restaurants. MAKE SURE YOU TRY THE SALAD DRESSING!!! 10/10 I would recommend to come and try. Also, the lady there is very nice.

Vegetarian options: For Vegetarian, they have good salad and a delicous dressing.“

“I wasn't sure how they were going to be when I first saw them coming to Tacoma Mall after getting bad reviews from other locations. But then as I saw people lining up more, I eventually tried them myself and the 3 times I've eaten there so far, there's been no problem. Food was very good, prices decent.“

“Okay Teryaki, but too much sauce on my teriyaki,sauce is a bit too strong and way too sweet,and salad sauce container on top of the food ,kinda unsanitary :/ , this place use to be better, so I may come back next year to see if any improvement.“

“🍲 Pho Ever 🫶 1st time here and it’s was Chill and cool place to eat.“
