Mumbai takes its food seriously, and its fascination with Chinese cuisine is unrivalled. We Indians have a wide variety of Chinese cuisines, including roadside chalu Chinese, Hakka Chinese, and traditional Chinese cuisine. And none of it even comes near to the traditional Chinese cuisine. So here are the best Chinese places in Mumbai that are must-try.
Yauatcha
Yauatcha is a dim sum restaurant in Mumbai, Delhi, and Bengaluru. This one is one of our favourites because of its genuineness and the dim sums it serves. This restaurant, which is frequented by Bollywood celebs, is regarded as one of the best in the city.
Jia - The Oriental Kitchen
Jia understands how to entice anyone with an appetite for Asian foods. This one is from the Royal China family, who have been in the business for 14 years. Jia aspires to be the modern counterpart to oriental cuisine, focusing on Dim Sum, Sushi, Thai, and Modern Chinese cuisines. Jia's interiors are distinguished by an eclectic all-white ceiling that mimics a bee colony. This one is a hit with foodies, evidenced by its 4.7-star rating on Zomato.
Uncle’s Kitchen
Although it is not a fine dining establishment like the others on the list, it has the most significant popularity quotient. Although Uncle's Kitchen is also one of the town's oldest restaurants, it has quick service and great food. Sweet Corn Chicken Soup, Crispy Chicken, Manchow Soup, and Chicken Fried Rice are some dishes to try.
Dynasty
It has been one of Mumbai's Chinese behemoths for a long time. Dynasty has been a popular hangout for college students, families, and shoppers for over a decade. Jumbo Prawns, Crispy Thread Paneer, Crispy Spinach Chicken, and Chicken Lollipop are some dishes to try.
Mainland China
Yes, mainland China has several outlets, but are they as good as the one in Andheri? I don't believe so! There's a reason Pam Aunty (Aditya Chopra's mother) is frequently seen there, smiling serenely and eating her hot soup. The atmosphere, service, and, oh my gosh, the kimchi is all too good to be real.
China Xpress
Are you tired of wasting too much money to eat decent Chinese food? Not any longer. China Xpress in Thane West is inexpensive and serves authentic Chinese cuisine. There's much to select from, including fried rice, vegetables, and meat in various wonderful sauces. There are also delicious treats to finish your dinner on a sweet note! Choose from Honey Noodles, classic Caramel Custard, or delectable Banana Pankey, a popular Chinese dessert.
The Red Turtle
The Red Turtle is spot on in terms of flavour, atmosphere, and the fundamental nature of the food, with everything Chinese and then some to gorge on. It's not just dumplings here; the popular Chicken Teppanyaki and the famous Tom Yum Soup are also available. We recommend trying everything because The Red Turtle's flavours are so diverse that there's no way to go wrong.
So these were the best places to try out some of the most delicious Chinese food in Mumbai.
