LOVE this place. Used to live in the area and now back for a visit. Just as good as before. They have so many vegan meat options. Get the Vegan duck! It's to die for the sauce is so good. Beef and broccoli is also really good. They're very fast ordering over the phone. There's not really much room to eat inside. It's more a takeout place. read more

I am very displease with this place. I ask for Szechuan Chicken and they gave me Sesame chicken. She was so rude on the phone.

Order here frequently for years, lady/owner who runs the counter is nice and I've never had to wait long for my order,. Typical things that are good, to me anyway, are crispy beef, fried wontons, cashew chicken, generals chicken and sesame shrimp. Fair prices, etc. read more

Customer Service was top notch. Food hot, generous and delicious. It was a very clean establishment. Outside may not look like much however you should never judge a book by its cover. read more

Came in here based on amazing reviews and the lo mein has a weird taste to it. It's kind of hard to mess up lo mein. Definitely not coming back. I just wasted $10 on this lunch that I'm not going to eat! read more

This little place produces some very food food with fresh ingredients. My husband loves their fried rice. I've had several noodle dishes (lo meón, soba) and all have been good and the vegetables tasted very fresh and not over cooked. This is a small restaurant with a few tables mainly for carry out. But the wait is never long. read more

Total hole in the wall/hidden gem. I called in an order at 7:30 on a Thursday, and it was ready in about 10 minutes. We ordered the hot and sour soup, kung pao shrimp, and beef + broccoli. Everything was hot and delicious. The vegetables were especially fresh! Also they gave a generous amount of large, juicy shrimp. Normally places skimp on the shrimp, but not here. Came to ~$30 for two large entrees + a large soup. We will be back! read more

So normally I would have given them 4 stars because my go to for Chinese food is kind of based off an establishments Beef and Broccoli and while theirs wasn't the greatest the rest of their food was delicious. I also got the orange chicken, egg rolls, and crispy beef. The orange chicken was flavorful and crispy. The beef was also crispy and had great flavors and while the egg rolls weren't anything special they were still very delicious. I'm ordering again tonight. (This is my experience and may vary for yours) read more

Convenient little Chinese place along east street! They've been quick on the orders and haven't messed them up. Staffs fast and friendly. The food is good. I took a couple photos of what I got this round! I think the crispy beef maybe is a little too sweet/runny, and needs more crispy-ness to it. It was OK! Simply Asia in Thurmont makes it better in my opinion! Would love it if they could make it like Simply Asia in Thurmont (HINT HINT). :-) The Broccoli and Chicken was pretty good, and I love that the Broccoli taste FRESH. I was hoping to get it in the white sauce, but it came with brown, which tasted good. read more

I just moved to Frederick and this is our new Chinese food spot. Food is so good that it reminds me of the Chinese food from north jersey!

Their lunch special is always really really good pricing is about average nothing too special but consistency is key to me and they are consistent read more

Likely you would dismiss this place based on the looks of the building, and there is no space or tables to eat there, however the food was the best Chinese food we have ordered since moving to Maryland over a year ago. I wish we could order ahead online but the wait wasn't terrible after placing the order in the restaurant. read more

Vegan chicken! Vegan beef! It's true. I recognize the taste, from the days I would buy veggie meat from the Asian grocery store. So happy! Clean inside. Nice red on silver walls, modern aesthetic. Nice staff. Will coming here on the regular. read more

My partner and I have ordered from this place several times, and we love it. They're always great at accommodating our vegan requests. The quality is consistent and ingredients are fresh. Will definitely keep ordering here! read more

Stopped for some chicken wings and they were fried perfectly! I enjoyed every bite of it! They are very responsive on phone calls and timing is great! They have available parking and right next to a gas station. They have outside sitting! read more

Asian Cafe - Chinese Near Me - Frederick, Maryland

Good food, not great. They did add tofu to a recipe on my request. Nice folks to deal with!

Any time my fiancé and I decide on chinese for dinner, Asian Cafe is our top pick. He orders their General Tso chicken and loves it! The outside breading remains crisp and not drowned in the sauce. I'm also a big lover of their chicken pad thai; it's actually my favorite thing to order there. It's got a great balance of those traditional thai flavors. I've had their hot and sour soup as well as their crab ragoons and both are impressive to me. Their dipping sauce for the ragoons lended a fruity sweetness. It's family owned, and they're very nice people. The owner practically remembers our order and always makes it a point to ask us if we'd like our thai tea. Just very nice that she remembers! All in all, great people and great food for a good price. They are carry out and delivery only but we always make the trip for good food. read more

I have always said, you can tell a Chinese restaurant that makes a superior Jiaozi will have amazing food. The dumplings were amazing. I tried the General Tso Chicken and it was great. My only complaint is there is not a lot of light in the front of the building at night. Watch your surroundings. I was approached by someone panhandling/Up to no good. read more

Very good local restaurant. Here on business. I was craving Chinese Food. Called in my order and picked it up 15 minutes later as promised. Was hot and tasty. I had the Beef and Broccoli, General Tso's Chicken and Vegetable Spring Rolls. read more

My mistake to order food for my family at this place. We are all suffer stomachae the next morning. It costs me $109 to learned not to order too much food from a restaurant i've not been to. read more

We have ordered several times during the COVID19 quarantine and been very pleased with the food and service. Now that the quarantine is being eased we will continue to order. This is a great Chinese carryout. read more

Great service and food. The timing was real quick. But the food! Man it was on point. It's a hole in the wall restaurant but damn it was delicious. read more

Moved to Maryland a couple years ago and had a heck of a time finding a good Asian restaurant. Passed this place one day and gave it a try. BEST Asian around Frederick. My go-to's are General Tso (crispy white meat), Pad Thai (nicely flavored sauce) and chicken fried rice (large pieces of chicken throughout). Always consistent quality and quantity. Staff is friendly, service super fast. Give them a try! read more

Buyer beware! I tried this place for the first time the night before a major trip...BIG MISTAKE. I ordered the vegetable lo mein, wonton soup, egg rolls, and Szechuan chicken. The quality and taste of the food was average at best, but even more unfortunately, I woke up in the early morning hours with severe stomach illness. Needless to say I will not be returning to the Asian Cafe, nor do I recommend it to others. There are much better Asian restaurants to visit in Frederick. My latest life lesson: stick to somewhere you know and trust the night before traveling. read more

To put this review in perspective, mine and many of my friends favorite Chinese places is far east in Bethesda, and I tend to only eat beef Szechuan, so I'm not great for A better rounded review. The second best place for beef Szechuan is one that I've had in the area is in Clarksburg called the Red bowl. I tried several places around the Frederick area and it just wasn't very good at all. I recently tried modern Asian on the golden mile, and they use plum sauce, and the taste was pretty good, although I didn't appreciate the thick slabs of meat and vegetables although I will say they're very generous portions. I'll be going back there. As for Asian Café this was my first time there. Their beef Szechuan is the shredded beef that I prefer, and the vegetables are thinner and better cooked. So it's a close tie only because this place uses brown sauce instead of plum sauce or if they use plum sauce they use very little of it. And as one of the reviewer mentioned they are a little light on their meat. That being said, I'm likely to go here when I need Chinese, and I'm betting that you might find a good selection for yourself here. I'm considering picking up some plum sauce and just mix it in there and it might just give it enough taste i prefer, in which case it'll easily beat out modern Asian for my taste. Perhaps they'll consider as other people mentioned - adding a little more meat to their meals would make it more satisfying as well. Lastly I'll mention if you ever go to Far East be prepared to almost pay 50% as much as any of the places I've mentioned here as their beef Szechuan is over 20 bucks at Far East. The red bowl, modern Asia, and Asian Café this place is somewhere between 13 and $15. Modern Asian as far as the amount they give you probably is the best value. read more

Best in Frederick! Real Brown Fried Rice not that yellow junk and it was real good! General Tso is excellent crispy, good sauce but could have been a bit more spicier. Beef Lo Mein was also excellent and so was the Crab Rangoon. This will be my place unless someone convinces me there is better that I haven't tried. read more

After the fire damaged China Garden, we tried many Chinese restaurants in the area and were pleasantly surprised to find the Asian Cafe! It is small, never crowded that we have witnessed, but service and quality of food has been terrific! (It is closer to our house too, so we may not go back to China Garden, whenever it opens again!) read more

Got the homemade dumplings and thai green curry chicken. They were both so good and fresh.

I am PHO Khan a sore, and the beginning of any great Pho starts with the broth... This restaurant has the best pho broth EVER!!! The Summer rolls were a little disappointing, but the Asian Wings were killer... All in All this is 1 of my new spots! Check them out!! read more

I saw the good reviews, so I got some takeout tonight. I had Kung Pao chicken, she had Mu Shu chicken. Sometimes, in a lot of Chinese restaurants, these dishes can be goopy, overly sauced, and just not very well done. Here, our dishes were well prepared - very colorful and delicious. The restaurant is bright and clean, and the staff friendly. Definitely hitting the spot on a weeknight when we didn't feel like cooking. We'll definitely be back. read more

This place doesn't look like much but I absolutely love the cheesy neon sign pointing at the restaurant. There are two little tables inside if you do choose to dine in, but the location is best for take out. The prices were quite good for the amount of food you get. Service was friendly and the food did not disappoint! I'll be putting Asian Cafe at the top of my list for places for take out near me! read more

The food and veggies are always fresh. And very good. Would be 5 stars, except for the fact that sometimes they are hard to understand and one day the guy behind the counter was kind of rude to me. But that is not the norm. I have no complaints about the food, its great. It is mainly take out. They have 2 tables inside, but usually they have people sitting and waiting for take out orders. This is located at the old Freeze-King on East Street. And they are closed on Mondays. read more

Best Chinese in Frederick! You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. My favorites are the sesame chicken, yaki udon and wonton soup! All of the ingredients are fresh and it's always delivered piping hot! read more

I live just around the corner and it's a nice little spot to grab a quick Chinese lunch. They have great lunch prices; ~$6 for lunch. I've had their General Tso's Chicken, orange chicken, and their fried rice. I feel like Chinese food in Frederick is hit or miss. This is a solid option for Chinese food. read more

I absolutely love their food. their crispy beef is the best. flavor is awesome and shrimp spring rolls are to die for. They are friendly and now when I call she knows exactly what I'm going to order. read more

After the reduction in great Chinese places I stumbled upon these yelp reviews and decided to try it. Very clean inside with friendly staff. Carry out only no delivery but it was very quick. Everything seemed fresh. Easy parking. Ordered orange chicken, wonton soup, fried rice, crab Rangoon's, spring rolls and shrimp with mixed vegetables. All done to perfection! I will designate this my new spot! read more

I am sitting here waiting on my food, I couldn't tell you if it's good or not, I will tell you they won't let you use the bathroom. You will take my money but won't let me relieve myself This food better be ridiculously good, or I am never coming back. read more

Love the Hot N Sour soup and vegetable rolls.Excellent Customer service.They do follow CDC guidelines about COVID which makes the food n environment more healthier..Over all Superb experience....! read more

Really can't rate. I call and call and get a Verizon no answer msg. Also can't order on line from there forwarding menu service. Frustrated.

Nice people. Quick Service. Average Food. Certainly not the best Chinese in Frederick - not even close! Pretty much on par with the fast food chain Panda Express. I ordered General Tso's Chicken - but what I got was more like Sweet and Sour Chicken with a few red peppers thrown in. Not what I was expecting. read more
