Based on interviews with chefs and Chinese restaurant associations, surveys of local food writers and polls, and our own experience, here are the 50 best Chinese restaurants in the country, arranged by state.

Watch through a window as the noodles you just ordered are handmade and pulled for you. China Magic Noodle House serves outstanding beef noodles for less than US$10. Huge portions and you can get them dry or with broth. The egg rolls are a good appetizer, but spicy marinated pig ear is also on the menu. If that isn't enough, they serve freshly squeezed juice and boba milk tea.

Beijing Pie House isn't a traditional Chinese restaurant. No white tablecloths, moo shu pork or dim sum carts here. The place trumpets the glories of meat pies -- flaky pies stuffed with searing hot pieces of meat. All for US$7. If you haven't gotten your carnivore on yet, you can always pair your pie with a savory beef roll. Cash only.

846 E. Garvey Ave., Monterey Park, Calif.; +1 626 288 3818
