4 Chinese Restaurants in Quebec City

Quebec City has fewer specialist Chinese restaurants than Montreal, and many search results mix Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai and Cambodian cooking. This shortlist focuses on current Chinese options and separates them from broader pan-Asian restaurants.

Restaurant Wong

Restaurant Wong has served Old Quebec since 1960. Under third-generation chef Steven Wong, the menu now leans toward Chinese cooking reworked with Quebec ingredients and modern touches rather than a standard Canadian-Chinese takeout menu. It is a better fit when you want a sit-down dinner in the historic district.

Wok N Roll

Wok N Roll remains a straightforward choice for Canadian-Chinese takeout, with current menus listing fried rice, chow mein, chop suey, combination plates and familiar General Tao-style dishes. This is the practical option when the goal is takeout rather than a special-occasion dinner.

Restaurant Tomas Tam

Restaurant Tomas Tam remains a large all-you-can-eat buffet near the airport, mixing Chinese dishes with seafood, salads, desserts and other international items. Choose it for variety and groups with different preferences, not for a narrowly regional Chinese menu. Our Quebec City buffet guide explains the format in more detail.

Chez-soi La Chine

For a more specifically Chinese menu inside Old Quebec, Chez-soi La Chine is currently listed by Bonjour Québec as open year-round and focused on Shanghai-inspired dishes, including dumplings, duck and hot pot. It is a stronger fit when you want a smaller sit-down restaurant rather than a buffet or takeout counter.

Why older Chinese-restaurant lists go stale

Restaurants such as Apsara, Délicatesses Tonkinoises and Thang Long may be worthwhile, but they are primarily connected with Southeast Asian cuisines. Including them without explanation in a Chinese-restaurant list is misleading.

Older Quebec City roundups may also still name Jardin du Bonheur. That buffet closed, and its former 1re Avenue building was demolished in May 2026. It should no longer appear as a current dining option.

How to find the right place

• Search for the dish or regional style you want, not only “Chinese food.”
• Confirm whether the menu is buffet, delivery, takeout or table service.
• For allergies, call about sauces, nuts, sesame and cross-contact.
• Check the restaurant’s current official page and recent operating hours.

What “Chinese food” may mean here

Some restaurants focus on Canadian-Chinese standards such as fried rice, chow mein, egg rolls and combination plates. Others use a broad “Asian” or “Oriental” buffet format that includes sushi, seafood, pizza or non-Chinese items. Neither format should be described as a regional Chinese specialty restaurant.

If you want dim sum, Sichuan dishes, hot pot, Cantonese barbecue or another specific tradition, search for that term directly and confirm the current menu. Quebec City’s smaller selection means the exact dish may matter more than the restaurant’s category label.

Choosing between buffet, takeout and table service

A buffet such as Tomas Tam works for large groups with mixed preferences. Its official site currently advertises takeout and delivery as well, while Destination Québec cité describes a broad multi-cuisine buffet rather than a narrowly Chinese menu.

Takeout is usually the practical choice for combination plates and a hotel dinner. Table service matters more when you want dishes shared family-style, careful pacing or help navigating an unfamiliar menu.

Questions to ask before ordering

• Is the sauce sweet, spicy or savoury?
• Does the dish contain peanuts, tree nuts, sesame, shellfish or oyster sauce?
• Can the kitchen explain cross-contact for a serious allergy?
• Is the portion intended for one person or for sharing?
• Does a vegetarian dish contain egg, fish sauce or another animal ingredient?

Verify the active location

Several names circulate in old directories after service changes or closure. Use the restaurant’s own ordering page or call the listed number before driving across town. A current delivery listing can show that a kitchen is taking orders, but it does not prove the dining room, buffet or hours match an old review.

Ordering for a group

Start with fewer dishes than the number of diners and add rice or noodles separately. Mix one fried or grilled item with vegetables and sauced dishes so the meal does not become a row of nearly identical combination plates. Ask whether portions are individual or meant to share.

For takeout, confirm utensils, sauces and hotel delivery access before leaving the restaurant. Label allergy-safe dishes immediately and keep their serving utensils separate.
