50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Merriam

“As good as one would expect a Chinese buffet to be. Especially love their Honey Chicken. Only complaint is the floor is incredibly slippery. I've been there twice with different shoes and I always feel like I'll slip and fall. Slippery in the dining hall and especially the restroom, feet were slipping even when I was seated?!“

“I’ve been looking for a new Chinese place since my place has closed. Tao Tao IS my new place!!! The food is phenomenal!! Love “Mama” and Jennifer, the sweetest people ever! Thank you ladies! 🩷“

I smell it all day and it makes my afternoon. DEFINITELY GO HERE. The menu is huge, and prices are great! One meal feeds me a big lunch for 2 days. Hot & Sour soup and Hawaiian Chicken are my favorite.“

“The BEST Asian restaurant in the Northland! The food is absolutely amazing—every dish we’ve tried has been outstanding. The sushi is fresh and delicious, and the attention to detail is top-notch. You have to try the crab wontons—they’re a must! We just had the Tokyo crispy chicken, and it was so flavorful and perfectly cooked. Honestly, I haven’t had a single thing here that I didn’t love. Chris, the owner, always greets us with a warm smile, and he and his staff make you feel truly welcome every time. Exceptional food, outstanding service, and such a friendly atmosphere—Saki is hands down our favorite spot!“

“Went there for dinner and was our first time there. The food is very delicious. We ordered 5 different dishes from the Cantonese menu(which is the more traditional Chinese menu).and gosh the portion sizes were huge and every dish was great. They all had their own distinct taste. Highly recommended if you are looking for a good sit down and order or even take out Chinese food.“

“My family has eaten here for 20 years. We started when my daughter was less than a year old. There are still a couple of servers there that greet us and remember our kids. They always ask about them if they’re not with us. The food has always been the best Buffet we have found. Always full and love the flavors and variety. We’ve tried other places and nothing compares for the price. Very reasonable and trying to feed a family while eating out.“

“Huge proportions, good price, and amazing food!! They even threw in some donuts for us!!! Love love love!!“

We loved it and are defintely coming back for the big portions, great peices for the amount of food, and amazing service“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at China Star, and it was hands-down one of the best Chinese food experiences I've had in a long time. The menu had a great variety of classic dishes and regional specialties, and everything we ordered was packed with flavor Highly recommend if you're craving real Chinese food made with care and authenticity!“

“Food was pretty decent! Good flavor. But what was best about our experience getting food here was that when my mother left her wallet sitting somewhere in the restaurant while waiting for our food, she got distracted and forgot it! She didn’t even realize until way late at night after close. Thankfully, whoever was working that evening noticed the wallet and put it away for safekeeping and my mother was able to get it back the following morning. She was extremely grateful and we admire the honesty and integrity of the employee and business! So glad they noticed the wallet and are clearly paying attention to their restaurant.“

“Absolutely some of the best Chinese food I’ve had in some time. The staff was super friendly and helpful! I will be going back anytime I’m craving this delicious food!“

“Decided to try this place on a whim, and wow it was delicious.
Clean restaurant
Very friendly. Quick service.
Great flavor. Everything was fresh
The hot & sour soup sooo good!

Will definitely be back.“

“Second time to Changs Wok and I couldn't be happier! Tonite I ordered the Mongolian beef and subbed rice for lo mein. So FREAKING good! The beef and mushrooms were delicious. The beef, super tender, very nice protein to veggie ratio. The lo mein was a perfect substitute but if you love rice go for it. I imagine it's just as good. Also added a side of crab rangoon and pork egg rolls. Both were fresh, hot and delicious. I forgot to add a side of spicy mustard and cup of sweet and sour. Tried to purchase some when I picked up my order, but the sweet lady who helped me threw in an extra sweet and sour and a little cup of hot mustard. Thank you! Can't wait to try some other items.“

“Nice service and plenty of food. The food is awesome too!“

“From the moment I stepped through the door until the moment I left, the entire dining experience was exceptional. Upon arrival, I was greeted warmly by the host, who promptly seated me without delay, setting the tone for the attentive and friendly service I would receive throughout the evening.

My server, Cliff, went above and beyond to make the evening memorable. He was not only attentive but also extremely knowledgeable about the menu. When it came to choosing wine, he listened carefully to my preferences and offered several excellent options that perfectly suited my taste, demonstrating his expertise and genuine care for the dining experience.

When the food arrived, it was clear that great attention had been paid to the quality and presentation. Every dish was served fresh, steaming hot, and bursting with flavor. Each bite was delicious, exceeding my expectations. Additionally, the menu itself was thoughtfully designed—it was concise and easy to read, which I appreciated because it made choosing my meal straightforward and enjoyable. Each menu item clearly outlined its ingredients and accompaniments, eliminating any guesswork.

Although my overall experience was fantastic, I do wish the restaurant offered a broader selection of sushi dishes, as their limited sushi options left me wanting more. Nevertheless, the exceptional service, especially from Cliff, and the delicious food have certainly ensured that I will return again. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a delightful dining experience.“

“fantastic food. always great service. nice atmosphere. the price for the food can't be beat, and they will make your food spicier if you ask. patrons always smiling. hands down the best Chinese food.here. the honey walnut shrimp.is out of this world good, as well as thier curry shrimp.“

“Went a couple weeks ago.
Great setting and atmosphere here.

Staff were very friendly, our server very very quick and a bit caught off guard when we didn't just speak our orders at him, but asked how he was doing; probably used to people not being too chatty.

Loved going here on a date, and my dad's recommendation from coming here years ago. The food was good. Got General Tso's chicken and vegetable lo mein.

The food was good, but it was the kind of good you find at a Chinese buffet, which is to say that it seemed to have substituted a lot of nuanced and diverse flavors of traditional Chinese food for the kinda of cooking that just makes everything really tasty, but the same.

The crab rangoons were very good!

All in all, give it a shot. Definitely worth it.
It's located in a cute little town area that's great for walking around in.“

“Never a disappointment. :) highly reccomend for a no thrills, good food kinda place.“

“We just had my son’s 14th birthday dinner here. All the food was great and the service was excellent. Our cute waitress Kylie made the night by bringing my son a birthday cookie with a candle and sang happy birthday to him all by herself it made our night. Thank you“

“Food is great! Service is mediocre at best, almost makes you not want to order from there. Never a friendly smile when picking up food, spent over $80 and the owner tried to charge me for extra sweet and sour sauce while giving me one small cup for 5 meals.“

“Amazing food, amazing staff!“

“First time in this place today, and we love it. Foods were freshly cooked, and still very hot when they serve it. Neat and tidy little place .... offers everything, from catering to deliveries, and you can do it online or by phone. We will surely be back very soon.“

“My wife and I have been eating at Rice House for at least a decade - usually getting takeout. It's not something we eat often, and that's a shame. Their quality of food and service has always been first-rate. Just had two chicken dishes today, and the chicken was extremely high quality and perfectly prepared. Their sauces are really nice too. And the crab rangoon and egg rolls were well above average. Menu choices for lunches, combos, and dinners are extensive and budget-friendly. And the consistency of taste is 5-star, meaning I can always count on the same quality and preparations. They are exactly what they promise to be - great food, choices, and service.“

“This is our favorite spot! Food is always so fresh and delicious! Hot, fresh, large portions, quick friendly service and wonderful sushi!“

“Food is good but it has a lot of msg...It makes me swell up so bad it's uncomfortable for many days.It's not very inviting to sit and eat there.That's probably why everyone just gets food to go.People didn't seem happy to see customers come in.

Parking: It's located in a strip mall of sorts

Wheelchair accessibility: I honestly don't remember“

“Excellent value, quality food, great service. It could be cleaner but I know running a restaurant this big is a massive job. Love the place and the kids want to go every week. We sincerely appreciate the Senior discount.“

“🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥“

“Food is super yummy! We’re newer to south KCMO and have been looking around and this is our go to spot for Chinese take out!
Also the owners are very kind, I came in short on cash and they covered the small amount I was short. (: Things are financially tight for everyone, so they definitely did this out of the kindness of their heart. Support this business!!“

“This place has amazing fresh food!! We came here after purchasing a car in Lawrence and needed to eat lunch. We live pretty far away but we will come up with reasons to come eat here or grab carry out. Really great quality and made fresh and still pretty quick amazingly!“

“Laab salad 10/10 . It’s hard to find laab that tastes like my Thai friends out here and I finally found it . Definitely gonna be coming back here .“

“My favorite neighborhood Chinese place. I come here at least once a week because of the convenience, great service, and amazing food! The restaurant has that classic look that is timeless and it is always very clean. You can tell the staff really cares about their business. 5 stars!!!“

“Other than a colossal problem with grubhub (what a pain).... we loved the meals. We all ordered off the special anytime meal menu and all received separate dinners. The food tasted great but we really wanted it delivered and ended up picking up the dinners in person. They were hot and very tasty.“

“This is a little gem of the Chinese cuisine in the Kansas City area. Very clean and cozy, with tasteful decor. The food is amazing! The best hot and sour soup I've ever eaten, and everything else is so delicious! I really liked the portion size, and the prices are not expensive. Wishing the owners the best in running their restaurant! They're doing an amazing job!“

“I loved this spot years ago when I worked downtown. Decided to revisit recently due to craving good Chinese food. They did not disappoint. Still hands down the best seasoned rice that I have had in KC. Workers are eager to please. I love it here, I like my rice extra spicy with extra onion. 🔥 Inside pretty small but they have take out and delivery. Keep this place alive, a great little hidden gem!“

“Food was very good and very fresh! Had a great amount of options as well. It was also extremely affordable. My friend and I went during lunch and paid under 20 for our meal, including drinks! I was shocked, considering how good the food was! Honestly had a great time here. Would highly recommend and will definitely be visiting the next time I'm in the area“

“My favorite Kansas City Chinese restaurant since 2009! Excellent service, delicious food every time, wonderful people. We try to come here as often as we can when we’re in town. KC friends- if you’ve never been, go! 😌“

“We drove in to KC for another restaurant that was closed unexpectedly. We came to this restaurant based off of the Find Me Gluten Free reviews. We both had the gluten free General Tso’s Chicken and rice noodles. My wife added a soup that was not gluten free and the waitress was quick to identify it, which I was thankful for even if my wife doesn’t have to eat gluten free like I do. To me, that says they are knowledge snd looking out for my safety. The food was delicious and fresh. We will be back and encourage others to give them a try.“

“We had Hot and sour soup, the lunch sweet and sour chicken and lunch sesame chicken. The lunch dishes both came with crab Rangoon, very tasty, very creamy. Everything was delicious, very fresh. We will be back!!“

“Beautifully remodeled. Pharmacy staff wonderful.“
