  • 1. Bai Wei Jiaozi Cheng

    $$

    Set in the Qinhuangdao Sea View Hotel, this immensely popular restaurant is adorned with red lanterns and gold dragons. Although known for its huge array of truly juicy dumplings, it serves other Chinese specialties as well.

    222 Gangcheng Main St., Qinhuangdao, Hebei, 066000, China
    No phone

    Known For

    • Fish dumplings
    • Brisk service
    • Huge menu

  • 2. Da Pai Dang

    $$

    Lined with street-food-style stalls, this wildly popular, well-established dining hall—the original and best of five locations around town—dishes up Yangtze wetlands specialities, including appetizers and soups that emphasize local vegetables rather than the usual starchy offerings; Nanjing's famous salted duck, served sliced on the bone; and steamers full of duck dumplings. Order from the picture menu (with tiny English translations) or get up and browse, pointing to what you want and giving your table number to a costumed attendant.

    25 Ruijin Lu, Nanjing, Jiangsu, 210029, China
    025-8448–8333

    Known For

    • Pretty interior
    • Hearty portions
    • Fresh produce

  • 3. Malena Belgian Beer Bar

    $$

    With a huge beer list, decent cocktails, and great Western food, Malena is popular with travelers and expats. The people-watching here is good, too, thanks to a lively outdoor terrace and a Quancheng Square location.

    Quancheng Sq., Ji'nan, Shandong Sheng, 25000, China
    0531-8601–6627

    Known For

    • Wood-fired pizza
    • Good salads
    • English-speaking staff

  • 4. Trio el Bistro

    $$

    Run by a young local guy who studied in Texas, this hole-in-the-wall taco bar serves up arguably the best Mexican food in town. All three of the hefty signature tacos are worth a try, and there’s a decent selection of sides and craft beers, too.

    13 Laiwuer Lu, Qingdao, Shandong Sheng, 266000, China
    186-5321–9327

    Known For

  • 5. Wumen Renjia

    $$$

    Shelled river shrimp (wumen xiaren) are a light and delicate signature dish at this lovely restaurant, accessed via a narrow alley north of Lion's Grove Garden. The busy kitchen also pulls off a crisp rendition of the region's famous songshu guiyu (squirrel fish), scored and fried so that the white meat fans outward in chopstick-friendly mouthfuls; sweet-and-sour sauce completes the experience.

    31 Panru Xiang, Suzhou, Jiangsu, 215002, China
    0512-6728–8041

    Known For

    • Lively atmosphere
    • Family friendly
    • Good tea menu

  • 6. Xichengyuan Wonton

    $

    Locals squeeze around tables at this simple eatery, a quick hop from the Master of the Nets Garden, to lunch on mouthwateringly zingy wonton soup and xiaolongbao (freshly steamed, soup-filled pork dumplings). There is no menu—order at the entrance, take a number, and find a seat.

    43 Fenghuang Jie, Suzhou, Jiangsu, 215002, China
    0512-6512–8707

    Known For

    • Authentic local fare
    • Low prices
