45 Best Chinese Restaurants near Spanaway

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

“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.“

“The food was very good and the staff friendly. Good portions, fresh and hot. Relatively quick service. I will definitely go again when I am in the area. Don't be put off by the slightly sketchy strip mall that it's a part of, it's nice inside.“

“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!“

“Wonderful service and the food is very tasty.“

“Got a family #1 order thinking partner and I could put it away but I am stuffed unable to move and still have leftovers to feed us lunch + dinner tomorrow 😋 so delicious. The almond chicken was impressively crispy and the beef bulgogi smelled and tasted and smelled incredible“

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

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

“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“

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

“Quick serve Chinese restaurant, located inside of the SAARS marketplace.

This place has better fried rice than panda express, you can quote me on that and you should come try it cause I’m definitely right

Tasty little spot I will be back, I also have a second location inside of the saars in Tukwila“

“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.“

“Our new favorite; we found it when the other two we went to for years closed. Excellent egg foo young, which can be hard to find. The best crunchy egg rolls. Great combo dinners; the ones made for 2 or more people always leave us with enough to take home for another meal.“

“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!“

“By all means my fiancé and i had a lovely night for dinner here. Its comfortable and charming in its quaint way with very good food and a friendly lady/waitress at the counter. Week-night eat-in is perfect for a quiet dinner night that doesn't break the bank for 2 or 3 to eat. Very happy overall.

For the sake of mentioning it, it looks like the majority of the lesser reviews for this place are doordash takeouts that probably spent too much time traveling in the box to be good on arrival, or thoroughly unfortunate one-offs.“

“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.“

“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!“

“By far the best food in that entire mall. We got the three item combo, it was $14 for enough food to fill two ravenous bellies. Very generous portions, AMAZING flavor, and the woman working the counter was so sweet. Will definitely be returning.“

“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!!“

“We love Panda Express and come here pretty often. We’ve found that for takeout, we usually have a better experience when we place our order in person rather than through the app. We’ve had a few too many small mix-ups with pre-ordering, so if we do use the app, we make it a point to check everything before leaving. Ordering at the counter just seems to go a little smoother for us.

That being said, the food itself is always great and consistent. My go-to favorites are the orange chicken, honey walnut shrimp, and the crab rangoon—they never disappoint. Overall, it’s still one of our favorite quick spots when we’re in the mood for something easy and satisfying.“

“Been to this place a couple times and I'm always impressed between the good food, fast service and generous portions! The seafood is always cooked perfectly tender and the flavors are savory. The chefs are extremely talented! We ordered the Ui Myron, which is the noodle dish, and the palbochae. Would definitely recommend and will be back!“

“Good Cambodian comfort food“

“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 tried this place on a wim and boy I'm glad I did!
Food is very fresh, tasty and big portions.
The price is fair and great if you consider the portion size.
It's very clean and bright inside and there are 2 big screen tvs playing sports if that's some thing your into while having a great lunch or dinner.
The Sushi rolls are 2 for 24.99 as of 12-20-2025 and 1 could pass for dinner if it's just you.
If you order lunch or dinner plate and a Sushi roll you should have plenty leftover for a small lunch the next day.
Definitely try this place out it has plenty of different dishes and Sushi rolls to try.“

“For starters, the person that was our cashier and server was very observant and polite. Our food came out fresh and hot, the taste and texture were very nice, but the portion sizes!? Very generous! This was our first visit, but we'll be back!!“

“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!“

“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 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.“

“great food, friendly atmosphere reasonable price“

“Good Cambodian comfort food“

“Harvest will be reopen on Jun 3rd.“

“great food and friendly service“

“Love this place great food fast service“

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

“We had a wonderful time. Got seated right away at table with a great view. I couldn't decide what to eat but servers were patient and pleasant and checked on us frequently. The atmosphere was very nice. Food was exceptional and for the quality and quantity the bill was far less than anticipated for 4 of us. We'll definitely be returning and booking through OpenTable.“

“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 🤤🤤“

“A gem in the middle of a strip mall. We stoped in spontaneously after shopping and were happy to see vegetarian options. Their tofu teriyaki dish was generously portioned and very tasty! As was the tofu fried rice dish. Also very flavorful and plentiful. The egg soup and hot tea were welcome on a cold rainy day. Atmosphere was welcoming. Clean tables and surroundings, and friendly service. Will come back!“

“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.“

“This place is hands down one of the best teriyaki spots I’ve ever been to. The chicken is always juicy, tender, and perfectly glazed with that sweet-and-savory sauce that hits every time. The portions are generous, the rice is fluffy, the salad is fresh with just the right amount of crunch.“

“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.“

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

“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.“
