Las Vegas Favorite Chinese Restaurants – Part 2 🥢🔥

The last Vegas Chinese food guide got so much love — here’s another round after a long while! These are also local favorites that come highly recommended — save this list now! Shanghai Taste Must-order: Pan-fried pork buns & soup dumplings — instantly transport you back to China. The beef tongue is incredibly tender, especially paired with cucumber. Braised wheat gluten, sweet & sour ribs — all solid choices.😊👌 Avoid: scallion oil noodles (not their strong suit). China Mama Check out the big braised pork knuckle in the pic — amazing over rice! Their sweet & sour pork holds up well, and both northern and southern-style noodles are great.💕👍 You can even watch them hand-make noodles through the window — adds to the vibe! Note: Their mapo tofu feels very Americanized — not my favorite. Papa Noodle A Hong Kong-style spot. Simple, delicious comfort food: Hainanese chicken rice, noodle soups — especially the signature chicken noodle soup (light but flavorful). Hong Kong milk tea is super authentic too! Chengdu Taste Better than nothing — and Vegas doesn’t have many Sichuan options anyway 😅 Sharing my homemade (cold spicy chicken) here just to show I might hold a spot in Vegas’ Sichuan food scene 🙊 BUT their rabbit dish isn’t great — maybe rabbit just doesn’t travel well outside Sichuan? Tian Peng Lu Wei Strongly recommended by a Taiwanese colleague — especially the beef noodle soup (half meat, half tendon) and braised pork rice. Pretty good! Used to love Yi Mei, but once they gave me a bowl of braised pork rice that was half oil — never went back. Dong Ting Chun For Hunan food, I still prefer Shaoshan Impression in the Bay Area. This place is okay for spice-cravers — better than nothing. Previously recommended Xiang Wei Xuan, but their quality has dropped lately. ⚠️ Got me thinking — do Vegas Chinese restaurant recommendations have an expiration date? Some spots just don’t stay good over time… Late-night + Karaoke spots friends asked about: Must be Kuba and Space BBQ! At Space BBQ, I’m just happy to have 冰 dry pot intestines, and pig brain 🧠 But overall, Kuba is more consistent — besides BBQ, they have hot pot skewers, amazing , northeastern and their grilled fish and sweet & sour pork don’t disappoint! #LasVegasFun #LasVegasEatsRecommendations
