Lucky House Chinese Restaurant

Chinese · Westerville · $$

Singapore Noodle and spring rolls anchor a menu built for groups, and the dining room backs that up: a large, well-kept space with attentive staff and portions sized for sharing. Regulars return for the mapo tofu too. Westerville diners looking for a sit-down Chinese meal that can handle a big table land here first.

2 Ming Flower Chinese Restaurant Yelp

Ming Flower Chinese Restaurant

Chinese · Westerville · $$

Lo Mein and egg fried rice cover the basics, but the menu runs long, and lunch pricing makes it an easy weekday stop in Westerville. Fried chicken wings show up as a house specialty worth ordering alongside the noodles. Delivery orders can run inconsistent on noodle texture, so dine-in is the safer bet.

Crab rangoon here draws real loyalty, with portions large enough to split and a menu that stretches into dim sum items rarely found elsewhere in Westerville. The takeout operation is the point: consistent quality, quick turnaround, usually ready within ten minutes of ordering. This is the weeknight order people keep coming back to for years.

Asian Fusion · Westerville · $$

Walnut shrimp and black bean fish fillet push this kitchen past standard combo-plate territory, with firecracker chicken rounding out a menu built for phone orders and quick dinners. The space is small but well appointed, tucked near Polaris Parkway. Portions and pricing both read fair, and it has become a default order for Chinese food in Westerville.
