China Restaurant China Zeit 食光餐厅 in Dresden

Great food. Tried different versions of the duck. Fantastic Peking soup. It feels like Asian guests get things that aren't even on the two cards (but I don't necessarily have to try them either) :-) Maybe you could put up a few more “sound absorbers”. We'd love to come back.

Very tasty !authentic! Chinese food. Highly recommended.

Highly recommended!!! Tastes delicious, good price, and everything's Chinese. It felt like you were on vacation in China.

You have to look for a “Chinese restaurant” like this! It's probably no coincidence that there are also a lot of Chinese people here. We were served very friendly, the food was excellent (and different from what we usually get in this country) and plentiful. We were lucky today, but next time we will make a reservation.

best Chinese restaurant in Saxony

Not the “typical” Chinese restaurant, but original and really good. It was a tip from a Chinese colleague and from now on it is the go-to place for Chinese food.

Authentic menu, friendly staff, ambience and food so-so, prices within reason, overall 3+

Very tasty and freshly cooked. The best proof of the authenticity of the food are the many Chinese compatriots at lunch. Nice and unobtrusive service. Taking the food away wasn't a problem either.

A taste of food from China. Reasonable price too. Open during the weekend.

Finally “REAL Chinese food” in Dresden! Great! Great! Great!

Best original Chinese food in DD

If you are looking for authentic Chinese cuisine in Dresden, you have come to the right place. There are various and unusual delicacies here, apart from crispy duck with noodles. You are served quickly and the staff is courteous.

Great food. FYI, They have two menus, one for Germans, one for real Chinese food. I will be back many times.

Nice staff, good food, nice restaurant. I can recommend it without reservation.

I ended up here alone on a business trip on a Sunday evening looking for traditional Chinese cuisine. Super friendly service and despite a relatively large number of guests with reservations, we were able to get a seat quickly. Really large selection of southern Chinese and Sichuan cuisine! Unfortunately, I had upset my stomach a little beforehand, so I decided to forego the classic, spicy dishes - so there are still “normal” dishes too. Here I can definitely recommend 鍋包肉 - Guo Bao Rou, deep fried, sweet and salty, slightly sticky pork. But the fried pork intestine was also really tasty and perfectly prepared. Thanks also to the kitchen for the completely “unspicy” cucumber salad! Only the tea was unfortunately a bit disappointing. A Chinese 红茶 was ordered, but instead there was an Earl Gray from a bag… All in all, a clear recommendation!

Best Chinese in a very long time.

The owners use the "N-word" a little too often for me. LG to the kitchen

Very good vegetarian and vegan alternatives

Very good Chinese restaurant. We'd love to come back.

Authentic Chinese food in large portions. Our service was very accommodating.

Authentic Chinese Food from Sichaun region. Delicious food with both spicy and non-spicy options. Big portions. You can share amongst two from a plate. Highly recommend. I have been there thrice already. Would love to go again. Gongbao chicken is a must try if you like spicy food. The cocktails are nice too. Would recommend C1

Our first impression was so-so, on-site parking, but with a parking meter. The ambience was different than what we were used to, but the food was A1 with *. Since I like to eat 🌶️ and my food was marked 🌶️🌶️🌶️ and ⚠️ on the menu, This finally hit home 😋. Very well made in terms of craftsmanship and taste, thank you for that 👍.

Very tasty and authentic! A must when you are in Dresden.

When you see a lot of Asians, hear Chinese spoken all around you in a Chinese restaurant, you know you’ll get authentic Chinese food! It’s rare to get good Chinese food in Germany, so if you want to try out real Chinese food and not the westernised version, then you’ve got to come here. Portions are huge and are meant to be shared so you can try different dishes! The BBQ duck was awesome. So was the hotpot (Feuertopf). Cucumber salad was also very refreshing! Staff were polite and friendly. Service was quick. Just make sure you book a spot before you come as it is very popular. Highly recommended!

We were there with several Chinese people, who of course knew their way around. The food was excellent, authentic, something completely different from “normal” Chinese restaurants.

Everything was really delicious - we were a group and shared everything Very friendly service

Best Chinese food of Dresden, now that Taiwan of Radebeul is closed!

Very authentic food. Enjoyed it a lot.

Authentic Chinese food. Absolutely great!

Everything was great, food - service - ambience. A highlight in Dresden. Mapo Tofu is fantastic, the spicy beef is also incredibly good.

Very large selection, delicious food, nice staff. Gladly again !!

Very good food, many Chinese in the restaurant as guests and in the staff. Reasonable prices and good attentive service. There are 2 chili peppers on the menu as a level of spiciness, which is easy for those who don't often eat spicy!

great food, only the service was slow. on the day that i visited, there were only two people working as servers, and there were a lot of tables that were not yet cleaned up.

We were really disappointed, the Peking duck was quite good but not worth the price. Long waiting times with extremely loud background noise in the ambience of the train station. The smell in the toilets was really unpleasant and the floor was very sticky. The food from the Asian neighbors looked significantly better, and we later found out that they could also order from another menu just for Asians. Don't think we'll come back again.

very sticky floor……mediocre Chinese food

This restaurant is specifically aimed at fans of Chinese cuisine. Don't go here for dishes like "fried rice" or "noodles."

Authentic Chinese food according to my best friend from China. We thought the food was delicious. My friend was impressed that the rice here is free like in China. Apparently at most Chinese restaurants in Europe you have to pay extra for rice. We will be coming back. In one word- Bang! 棒！

Super tasty food, large portions, nice atmosphere and nice service! I prefer to eat tofu in brown sauce. 100% recommended.

Very tasty and, in my personal opinion, authentic food. There were a lot of Asian guests there, which is a good sign for me. Absolutely recommended

The menu cards are a joke, DIN A4 printouts on a clipboard and very little selection. The sauce wasn't seasoned and we had to wait over an hour for the food, which was only lukewarm. Once and never again

Like a canteen, no ambience. Dishes may be typically Chinese, but lack simple European dishes like fried rice, duck dishes, or fried noodles

Very pleasant atmosphere. Very good and clear meals.

We were very happy with our meals and the service was friendly.

Huge portions, and quite authentic. 1 dish per person to share among yourselves is more than enough. Surprised to have found such decent Chinese food in Dresden. Can recommend.

The ceilings are huge and the ambience is very modern. The first time around it felt like the price to quantity was very off but other than that the food was good. But over time the food grew on me and I absolutely love this place and Chinese cuisine! Very very much recommended! 🌟

Nice and delicious Chinese cousin restaurant!

Mapo Tofu okay, BBQ Pork (Cha Siu) unbelievable 🤢 just yue…

Original Chinese food in a cozy environment. Definitely recommend it

That was a real feast for the taste buds! Very tasty!!!Braised eggplant is my recommendation. I'll be back 100%

There were only two of us, the portion was huge, but we still managed to eat everything 😂 so you really have to be able to eat a lot. Otherwise, just take it home. Both dishes were very tasty. Next time we really have to order “the really spicy beef”. The employee asked us again if we really wanted to order this, unfortunately we didn't dare to do it anymore... please don't make us unsure next time!!! 😂

A nice Chinese restaurant. The mapo tofu could be better; the sliced potato is excellent. I’d say 4.5 stars but the service is too!

The China Zeit 食光餐厅 restaurant is always very busy and it is definitely worth waiting for a seat. It is an authentic, very good Chinese restaurant - not just in Dresden, but throughout Germany. Despite the stress, all the waiters are always friendly and helpful. Particularly recommended are the Guo Bao Rou (锅包肉) - crispy fried pork in a sweet and sour sauce - and for lovers of spicy dishes, the Mapo Tofu (麻婆豆腐) - braised tofu with minced pork in a spicy sauce. The portions are huge and you can eat unlimited rice (feel free to ask the service at any time). Given the high quality, the prices are really a bargain.

Sichuan cuisine is very authentic and suitable for authentic Chinese people. The price is also very affordable. At the same time, this store can hold events. It has 150 seats and large private rooms. It is also suitable for mid-to-high-end tour groups. The garden seats in summer are unique.

I was really looking forward to it(because of the review), but the taste was similar to that of a regular Chinese restaurant. But it was definitely Chinese style food and It was very nice that they provided rice together.

Nice authentic Chinese food in Dresden and my favourite place to come for every visit here

Great Chinese food. Good selection to suit various tastes. Fresh crispy vegetables, super crispy duck, and tasty chicken. Would absolutely come here again.

The food was very tasty. However, you should be careful with two chilies next to the dish on the menu. Although it was only supposed to be medium hot, it was noticeably hotter. The service was friendly, but we forgot the second dish and it took longer to get the bill. But there was also a lot going on that day. We would definitely recommend it.

It's not as good as Berlin, and the taste of the dishes fluctuates greatly and is more casual.

Very solid and stands out from some other Stino shops.

Please Please Please provide TABLEWARE for takeout customers! I visited Dresden and ordered food delivery to my hotel. The food was delicious and definitely worth 5 stars. However, I was disappointed to find no tableware included in my takeout. I had to choose between eating with my hands or throwing the food away. Eventually, I used my toothbrush as a chopstick, which was quite a funny experience.

I’ve been waiting for a place like this in Dresden for over a decade since moving here. Exceptionally good food, everything is consistently tasty - no fish disappointed. I’ve been here 3 times now and can’t wait to go back. Thank you for bringing some solidly good food to this city !

Delicious food. You can feel the real food, not some fakes seasoned with glutamate and excessive amounts of soy sauce. The prices are adequate. The portion is very large! Only lack of Chinese desserts. I recommend

The attitude is very bad and the food is served very slowly. After waiting for 40 minutes, they only said "wait a moment". There are a lot of people. It seems that all the tables coming later are served. Do takeaways have no rights? The taste is getting worse and worse, and I will not come again, whether I go there or place an order through WeChat. Don't be too conceited. Just start bullying customers when you feel you have established a foothold. It’s so funny. From 6:25 to 7:00 it’s 20 minutes, right? When you say you have a bad attitude, do you mean to kneel down and ask if I have done what I begged you to do, or else I will starve to death? After asking a few times, I will only reply with this sentence: Just say that you have a good attitude. It tastes bad but you still want to eat it? This is a really great question. It tastes bad but you still want to eat it? Isn’t this because of your service attitude? Can't you hear what it meant before? From when Zwickau first came here, the boss would ask if there was anything that could be improved, haha, to you, you can’t even say that, and don’t talk about “fellow colleagues” anymore. Die Bedienung war sehr unfreundlich und das Essen kam sehr langsam. schneller bekamen. Haben Gäste, die Essen zum Mitnehmen bestellen, etwa keine Rechte? Der Geschmack wird auch immer schlechter. Ihr Geschäft gut läuft, heißt das nicht, dass Sie Ihre Kunden schlecht behandeln können.

This is a really delicious house

Very varied menu and super authentic food.

Great, delicious and authentic food

Tastes great and some of the dishes are rather unusual, not the usual "German" Chinese restaurant. Perfect if you like spicy food but you can also find something else. This time it took quite a long time but was also very well attended. The ambience has something of a hall but it's perfectly fine.

Food was very good and not just the usual. Location a bit noisy.

Simply great.... There is also a map just for Chinese people and this map lists many things that are not available on the German one. We love the food and are happy that there is a restaurant that doesn't cater to German tastes. Thank you for the great experience with you.

The portions are large and the taste is medium. You can try it.

It was very tasty and authentic! Service was very nice and the dishes were very large and sufficient! Highly recommended :)

The food was very authentic (I'm not from China, so I can't really judge, but the shop was full of Chinese people) and super tasty. Can only recommend 👍 One point deducted because we had to wait a long time despite making an online reservation. The service was extremely overwhelmed without a system. But I was there on Friday evening around 7 p.m., so that could be why. The dish in the middle in the photo was at the spiciest level ("numbingly spicy" on menu) and it is actually really spicy, so watch out. I had to go to the toilet several times the next day 🙈

The layout is quite good, maybe because the ceiling is high and the echo is loud, the restaurant will be very noisy. The floor is super sticky and makes your feet sticky when you walk on it. . . Ordered three dishes The water spinach is delicious and very spicy. I’ll give this a 5🌟 The salt and pepper pork ribs are very dry and spicy, but also very greasy and not delicious. Malatang, this is not Malatang at all. The fat beef is very old. The only side dishes are cabbage, Shanghai green vermicelli and Qianzhang shredded noodles. The taste is just like the hot pot base. . . Unappetizing As for service, their manager is very rigid and doesn't know how to be flexible. There is a girl who has a pretty good service attitude. If you eat other dishes in the future, check the taste. After all, Dresden has no other choice.

As tourists, we had two dinners in a row. We ordered three dishes from the restaurant but didn't finish them, so we packed them back and ate again. A serving of Mao Roast Duck not only includes half a duck, but also a lot of hairy tripe and beef, and a lot of side dishes. The lamb soup has a generous portion of mutton, with four ounces of the meat still very tender. The chicken with vine pepper is also very fresh, numb but very appetizing. Overall, the portion size is very good, the environment is very good, the boss is very nice, and the waiter's attitude is also very good. Will come again!

Food is very tasty! Can really recommend the king duck

To be honest, it was really good when it first opened, but now it's a mess. The portions of the dishes are smaller and the taste is worse. I suspect that you use instant seasoning packets to cook the dishes. Pickled fish, Kung Pao chicken, and fish-flavored shredded pork are all instant seasoning packets.

Visited place last Sunday with friends, we easily got a seat: place is very spacious. The service was rather slow (we needed to wait several minutes to get a menu and even longer to place an order. We really liked the food, however would be great to add more wrappings to the Peking duck (yum). Could be also a bit more spicy, dishes which we're supposed to burn were mild. Once we also ordered the food from this place as delivery and food was also on spot, but mild (owners, add more chilli!). Great spot, would definitely visit them again.

Never eaten as authentically as here. Not the Asian uniformity, but to the point in terms of taste. Mainly Asians eat here, which clearly speaks for the restaurant. We recommend.

Always very tasty food prepared by very friendly staff. Also busy at lunchtime, so it doesn't hurt to call ahead.

Delicious Chinese food. I’ve never seen rice served for free. The boss is so kind! Recommended! Stay for two days at a time and eat three meals...

The best, most authentic and tastiest Chinese restaurant in Dresden. If you've had enough of Asian food "adapted to German tastes", you should eat here. By the way, one of the few German restaurants where you can taste pork intestines. We (Asian-German family) keep coming back.

The service is good and the food is delicious.

Very good and authentic Chinese cuisine, I recommend ordering a few dishes and sharing them, so you can try more items. The taste may not suit people accustomed to Polish "Chinese", but in my opinion it is worth trying it for yourself.

An experience!! Really great food!!

Long waiting time, food tastes mediocre and portions are small. The floor in the restaurant was sticky.

Very authentic and delicious food, service is very friendly. We liked it.

Every item is good and unique with its taste... I love chicken dishes.. I have been there twice.. worth it and have a try.. Cost is also reasonable

As a Chinese woman, I can say that this is the most authentic restaurant in all of Dresden (probably even beyond the borders of Dresden). Great hosts, wonderful, truly Chinese food. I love it and can only recommend it to everyone.

At first I stood in front of it and didn't dare go in because everything looked too authentic to me...it doesn't matter! Breathtakingly delicious and very friendly service! Unfortunately a bit loud but that's okay. Clear recommendation and absolutely no comparison to any Asian bistro/restaurant!

Never had such delicious Chinese food before. We will definitely come back and recommend you. Top service, great food, TOP

Very nice Chinese food in Dresden. They don’t have an English menu, but one of their staff was able to speak English and he was very helpful to us. Good food, good service

The most authentic and delicious Chinese food in Dresden! none of them! ! ! I highly recommend everyone to try it :)

The food seemed authentic to me and was delicious. I've had much better soup elsewhere, so only 4/5. The restaurant is full of Asians, so that speaks for the food. The service was really quite overwhelmed, but the store was also very full. The atmosphere really bothered me. High ceilings without room dividers and soundproofing, very loud. The floor just stuck together, which was very uncomfortable. So rather unsuitable for conversations.

Excellent restaurant. Good personnel. Plus the best dishes from Sichuan and all over China.好吃！

I can't say anything about the authenticity of the food because I've never been to China. But the food seemed different to me than in a typical Chinese restaurant, better and different. Lots of Asian-looking guests. Easy reservation by phone. The staff were very attentive and at the same time discreet, with slight difficulties in communication. Portions plentiful. We had a lovely evening and I'll be back out of curiosity to try something different.

Excellent restaurant. One of the best Chinese in Europe for sure.

We came here because the reviews were so good. I was disappointed. Food just average. Prices okay. Ambience rather uncomfortable - looks more like a train station hall with orange walls. Drinks and food take forever. Service makes an effort, but communication is difficult due to the loud noise. You won't find a place to sit comfortably and have a relaxed conversation here.

Proper Chinese food in Dresden, tastes great! We ordered cucumber salad, vegetarian Mapo Tofu(normally with pork, but if you ask, they prepare it vegetarian) and Di San Xian, and they were all amazing. Definitely worth to visit 👍

Szechan fish was very hot and tasty. It was also a big meal enough for two

I ordered three dishes. The stir-fried yellow beef was a bit old and hard to chew. It became even harder after it cooled down. The crab roe tofu pot was a bit fishy, ​​I wonder if it was the salted egg yolk. The boiled fish is average and the quantity is okay. You can add rice for free here. ——— Thanks to the store for the prompt reply! I’ll try other dishes when I have a chance 😂
