41 Best Chinese Restaurants near Helotes

“This is the best chinese restaurant in San Antonio. Not only the food is superior, but the prices are down to earth. If you love fried rice, very close to the puertorican style, this is your place. All dishes all flavorful and they are consitent in the quality and taste of each dish. Me and my family come here almost every month now. Only downside is that they don't open on Sundays. Great, great place. Don't miss it!“

“We love coming to P.F. Chang’s! I have celiac disease and it’s one of the few places I can safely go to enjoy and enjoy a meal. And not just a meal, a great one at that! We had the pleasure of having Elaine as our server this most recent time, and she took care of us so well. We will definitely be back to this location and next time we’re here, we’ll be asking for Elaine!“

“Went with friends to celebrate my birthday and I will definitely be back! The staff was friendly, the food was delicious, and the prices and serving sizes appropriate! I enjoyed the Pad See Ew, with sticky rice with mango for dessert. The Thai tea was a delicious beverage.“

“I can’t say enough of this place!! Came here and had the combo egg soup with 20 dumplings and a drink.. my fave is the pork and green onion! The freshness and flavor is *chefs kiss* both dumplings and the egg soup!The hubby had the combo Braised short ribs with thin noodle and 10 dumplings and a drink. What a deal! The flavor of the braised ribs was delicious! He said spice on 2 was just right! (If you like spicy)Our server, the gentleman was super nice and VERY welcoming! Always had a smile and quick with our refills. We love it here and hope everyone takes time to visit..“

“I really loved the Chicken Pad Thai here, it was delicious. This is their express location and it’s literally next to the gas station, parking may be challenging but the food is totally worth it and the prices are really good too. The service is fantastic, friendly and attentive.“

“The food is absolutely amazing. I have enjoyed Thai food since I was a child and this place not only gives me reminiscence, but at the same time a completely new experience. Their Massaman Curry is a dish I come for every single week, and they have their items ready for you in mere minutes. Highly recommend and love this place.“

“YOU WONT REGET IT; me and my partner have been to China in, Lees, China Bistro and China Star and lemme tell you; we have not gonna back to any of those after trying Royal inn (nothing against all the other restaurants, they still have very tasty food if Royal isn’t available!) The food is delicious with great portions, very affordable too. The service is AMAZING! They’re very attentive to any “special directions” you note (I would know since I always ask for fried rice without green onion). Staff is welcoming and friendly, they’ve even started recognizing us when we walk in due to how frequently we go. Overall, if you’re looking for some delicious, quick, and affordable Asian food, Royal Inn is the perfect place! I recommend the sesame chicken, fried rice, and egg drop soup! You won’t regret it, we didn’t!“

“Great prices, big portions, and delicious flavor. This restaurant is a hidden gem and I frequent their establishment ;whether Togo or dine in) AT LEAST once a week.Combination plates are a great value including 2 entrees, fried or steamed rice, and either an egg roll, spring roll, or Rangoon. For $14 that’s a great deal in this economy.One of my favorite qualities of a Chinese restaurant is the foods reheat-ability. Asia knocks it out. Quality is not lost when microwaving and the portions are so good I end up eating 2 meals for the price of 1.As far as the service and atmosphere goes, it’s usually quiet and the waitstaff can be a bit impatient at times so I recommend checking out the menu before heading over.“

“I’m Vietnamese and can truly say this restaurant is authentic and delicious!!! I get the pho with meatballs and my son loves the rice plate with grilled pork. The staff treats their guests like family. I’ve met the owners and they are the most sweetest people who puts so much love in their food. Come and eat the best Vietnamese food and let’s support this family owned small business y’all! so good I want some right now!“

“Ooooh my goodness, just yes! ? My husband and I both had the chicken pad Thai, and that’s the most flavorful I’ve ever had. Fresh ingredients too, and wonderful attentive service. The dining area is a little small, but it’s still a very cozy atmosphere! I highly recommend them, very solid portions for the price as well. Happy customer, 5 stars! ✨“

“One of the two best spots in the entirety of San Antonio, this quiet little space has some of the best Chinese dishes I've ever had. Whether it's spice you're looking for or something a little tangy like orange chicken, everything here is delicious. Group favorites like the steamed pot stickers come out piping hot and ready to share!“

“I just started coming here recently and one day after a very late night I stopped by to get something to eat and I am so glad that I turned around just for this food truck. It sounds silly but their food really does bring me comfort. I love the environment and the owners are super nice and sweet, I make the effort to come here with my friends every so often because I regret not coming here sooner since I live right next-door, I will be graduating this semester, and I like to get their food as a reward after doing homework or a rough night at work. This place is amazing and doesn’t fail to put a smile on my face :)“

“This place never fails. Sweet Lady at the window giving us our order and taking payment. This is my family's go to anytime we crave Chinese. You can call ahead and pick it up at drive thru. We had combination Lo mein, Veggie Delight with white sauce(great for the kiddos), fried rice and wonton soup. The wonton soup had more soup in it but I couldn't resist.“

“Random craving for teriyaki chicken this past Tuesday (kind of weird because I don't ever eat this ?) so I ordered from TK Teriyaki Kitchen through Uber eats and it was SO good! It was a huge serving and the rice had SO much flavor aaaannnnddd because I couldn't stop thinking about that rice we decided to go today.First of all, please make note, this is not a place to dine in. You have got to call ahead to place your order and call or text when you arrive so you can let them know you are there for them to bring your order out to you.When we arrived the lady was bringing out someone's order then came to my window and said I could place the order with her (since I had not already placed it) and it would take approx. 30 min (this was around 3:30pm).We ordered the following:Spicy shrimp lo mein plateBeef/broccoli plate with fried rice instead of steamed rice(We received fried rice instead of the lo mein which was fine with us)Totaling: $28.69Happy eating!“

“Today is 4/11/24. It is currently 11:54 am and I'm in the restaurant having lunch. This is my first visit. I ordered the crabmeat Rangoons and they were delicious. Plenty of cream cheese. The restaurant is small and I like the ambiance that it gives off! My food just arrived and I'm eating the Cashew Nuts with chicken and brown sauce. Very good! The service is very good. The young lady is very attentive. I recommend this restaurant!“

“Best Chinese food this side of the pacific. Not only is it the best, they give you so much food for the cost. You pay $12 for practically three meals or more if you eat like a bird. The owners are amazing. I have been coming here consistently since I started college and I am sad I have to move away. Not because I'll miss San Antonio but because I will never have the luxury of living 5 minutes from this amazing restaurant“

“First time at this location but definitely will not be the last. I work in food service so I was impressed to see the manager hands on, the place was clean, everyone seem to be having a really good shift. It was just very positive all the way around and my food was delicious. So glad you opened this location near me. Management should be commended for a great environment for both customers and employees.“

The food is great!Vegetarian options: Bok Choy, green beans, noodlesParking: Large strip mall with lots of parking plus disabled parking spaces are right up front.Kid-friendliness: Gin's family takes care of kids, food and beverage wise. Parents, please do not let your children run around. An accident can happen if food is coming out of the kitchen and a little one is not seen by their staff.Wheelchair accessibility: Main door has a ramp for everyone to enter. The dining room on the left is the easiest place if you use a wheelchair.“

“My 1st time visiting this restaurant. I was craving Chinese & just happen to see there sign & immediately stopped. I was greeted immediately by the cashier who was amazingly kind & welcoming...I ordered & she brought out my food within 5 mins which impressed me even more then the inside of the restaurant being so clean & decorated. I ordered the chicken with garlic sauce for he 1st time & it was steaming hot & fresh & tasted even better then it looked! I absolutely highly recommend trying out this gem if you haven't already ?“

“1st time customer. Wait time was not too bad. We had the sesame chicken, egg rolls, lemon chicken, Mongolian beef, chicken fried rice, and chicken lo mein. Our waitress was so nice and attentive. FOOD WAS DELICIOUS!!! my personal favorites were the chicken fried rice and sesame chicken. This will be our weekly family dinner spot....ohh and plenty of parking. Also loved the decor. Also not too bad $$ for everything that we ordered.“

“Delicious Chinese food with wonderful service!We went at lunch with a big group (20), so I was worried it might take awhile, but Julia took our orders and got the food to the tables in no time. It was fresh and tasty. I got the General Chicken, which had a ton of flavor and was cooked well. Egg roll, hot & sour soup and rice were on point. A great experience and a place I will definitely go back to.“

“Decent enough Asian food with generous serving sizes. The food won’t wow you, and the duck here is dry, but the chicken dishes I’ve gotten are pretty good for the price, and I’ve never had issues with carry out - the staff is friendly and always have orders ready in no time.“

“A very small and comfortable place, very kind service and the food is great! The Mei Fun is so tasty, not too peppery like a lot of other places! My fiance got pork fried rice and the fried rice tastes perfect: not overly savory so the juicy pork really stands out! Very worth a visit. We will be coming back for more! Thank you Chin's Kitchen! ???“

“I used to eat at this hole in the wall when I worked in the area back in 2005. My family and I were in the area so we decided to eat here. It was the same on the inside, and the food was just as good. They serve huge portions, so for me, it makes two meals! If you're looking for big portions with a small cost, this place is for you!“

“Been going to Regent for a looong time now and still enjoy eating there. We had tempura shrimp and chicken/broccoli and both were great. Comes with fried rice and an egg roll on to go orders, dine in and get a free soup. Friendly fast and great Hunan style food.“

“I tried their lemon chicken and it was kinda dry. Good amount of food u get but it is a bit pricey I paid 16$ the egg drop soup was not good the egg role was delicious. This place was OK I guess I only came because a friend recommended. Oh and why is the drink small? For 16$ it should be a large.“

“Excellent service all around,even though we had to wait 25 minutes for our food,since the waitress didn't place our order,Mgr apologized ,waited an extra 10 minutes, but my pepper steak,fried rice & vegan egg roll with sauce were delicious,. Our Aqua volleyball ?‍♀️? team, from ymca, enjoyed the food,atmosphere, service, cleanliness, and even lots of parking ... great job ,T jin cuisine/diner/restaurant..deliciously good ?“

“I think They have a good variety of dishes . l like lunch and dinner both. All you can eat. Also, take out, you pay by the weight of the container and a senior discount, but you have to ask for it. I have been eating there about once or sometimes twice a month for about 20 years. I like buffets, it's good bang for your $$“

“Me and my wife visited this location a few days ago brought on by a facebook ad. Crab legs and shrimp as well as the low mein tasted great! It is a bit pricey but I think all seafood is now a days. The medium spicy sauce on crb legs is good as well as the buttery flavor dipping sauce. Sodas are in 12oz cans and we actually like these over fountain drinks.Bring a metal fork to open up crab legs to get everything little piece of meat out and prepare to get messy in a good way!Parking: Parking is shared across multiple businesses but it is plentiful.Wheelchair accessibility: There are wheel chair access ramps and plenty of space inside for customers that use wheelchairs.“

He always shakes my hand when I roll in with my wheelchair.Wheelchair accessibility: They went out of their way to get me close to ramp up on the serving lines!“

“After reading reviews and having a craving for Chinese food we decided to give this place a try for take-out dinner.We ordered orange chicken, chicken chow mein, hot and sour soup and an order of cream cheese rangoons. We phoned in our order for pick up and the hostess said it would be ~10 mins.After arriving I noticed the ambiance was that of a typical well-established Chinese food place. I'd say "well frequented" which is something I want to see. You can tell it got a lot of traffic and has been around for some time. After paying and a brief wait the hostess came out with our order. We got home and opened everything up. The portions were amazing. You can EASILY eat 2 if not 3 times out of a single order for the entrées. The hot and sour soup was tasty and had lots of veggies, it wasn't all broth. The cream cheese rangoons were fresh and tasted great. All the condiments were included.We will definitely be back!“

“Decent. Definitely a healthy alternative to lesser places like ?. The Mongolian beef is quite good. The fried rice was healthy and good. The wonton soup tasty. Simple and good visit. I will return to try more of the menu. Prices are reasonable too. Yummy ?, I've been back a couple times since my original review and I'm stuck in a loop. I like the Mongolian beef so much I've ordered it 3 consecutive visits in a row. Today was my birthday and this was my treat.“

“Sooo many options to make your own bowl with your own sauce. We had a party of 6 and there was no wait at dinner time. You choose everything and they have suggestions in the menu to help if you're unsure. Cook it right there in front of you. Great experience for a birthday gathering.“

“I absolutely recommend this restaurant and this location as well! Every time I come in I am greeted by multiple smiling faces. My order is always out super fast and made perfectly. They are all so very sweet especially the hostess, so again I 100% recommend this location and Pei Wei in general!“

“Best food on the block. I eat here every day; (except Sundays as they are closed) the food is always amazing, their serving time is always consistent and quick, the folks here are very friendly and always quick to bring me my order. The food is very filling and nutritious; I ate here for a week straight and lost a few pounds without feeling like I was starving, and the flavor does not disappoint. You do NOT want to miss out on this quaint and wonderful little hole-in-the-wall experience! I absolutely love this place“

“The place is nice and clean and the staff is always friendly every time I've went.I used to come years ago, but it seems like in recent years they've toned down the spice. This used to be THE place for me to get some spicy pad thai. But now, even when I order Thai hot it just... doesnt have that kick anymore. It's more like a medium, if that, which makes me kinda sad... because the flavor is spot on! My favorite pad thai. Bring back the spice for the spice heads like me lol ?“

“We went for a late lunch at 3:30 on a Friday. We were the only ones in the restaurant besides the staff. He ordered the lemon chicken with fried rice & crabmeat Rangoon. I had the chicken vegetables with steamed rice & a spring roll. The food came out hot & tasty! He was saying there was so much chicken on his plate that was very crispy on the outside & tender inside. The crabmeat Rangoon's were very large & very good. My chicken & vegetables were so good, the chicken was velvety and the vegetables were crisp & cut in bite size pieces. I was happy to see it wasn't overloaded with onions like some other places I've been before. The steamed rice was tender & the spring roll tasted great. Another couple came after we were seated. The food was so good & with generous servings. Definitely plan to return another day to try other menu items.“

“Pretty basic but good chinese takeout style. Fried rice, chowmein and a bunch of meat sides. Tendered by an elderly korean woman. Fairly decent price 8 bucks for a 1 entree 2 side format and a drink. I eat here often and sometimes chat here and there with the elderly woman. I would recommend if you're craving for chinese takeout“

“Lunch on a Tuesday was busy but we were seated within 10 minutes. I ordered the lettuce wraps and they were so good & there was enough for my meal. I also had the hot & sour soup that tasted so good with all the vegetables in the silky broth. My spouse had his usual lemon chicken with egg roll & egg drop soup. Our waitress was prompt & polite. Always a good day for lunch at the beautiful Golden Wok.“

“My parents used to eat here before I was born which was 25 years ago. My mom used to always get the kung pao chicken when she was pregnant. Once I was born and able to eat other foods we would always come here and I would always get the kung pao lunch special. To this day I still get the kung pao and have my whole life at the same location. My girlfriend asks if I ever get tired of it and I don’t. So Wok Inn always gets 5 stars.“
