50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Merriam

“It's very much a family buffet restaurant. My teenage grandkids pick this place every time we get together. There are three lines of food so everyone can find something they like. The place gets really busy on weekends. Parking isn't a problem because of the huge parking lot for the strip mall and Home Depot.“

“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! 🩷“

“One of our favorite places! Try the Chinese pot roast, the almond chicken asparagus, the chicken with black bean sauce, the scallion biscuits, the duck wrap… everything we’ve had at Blue Koi has been great.“

“Order their General Tsos tofu with broccoli. It's the best Chinese dish in the kc metro area. Also they will make fresh fried rice with no egg upon request. The staff is very friendly when placing orders over the phone and food is always fresh and delicious.“

“The food here is so good, you don't understand. I am the manager at Exotic Pets next door so I have to fight not to go here every day, it is so delicious. 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.“

“Hidden gem. We love this restaurant! Best hot and sour soup in city. Everything else is great too.“

“I've been going about twice a month for the last few years. Great service. Great food. Price recently went up and portions went down so that's a little disappointing. However, it's still a great place to eat!“

“the food was delicious, the service fantastic, the atmosphere great and the owner Derek was so friendly! we'll definitely be going back!“

“This place has new owner. And it has excellent Cantonese style Chinese food. Compared to other places that we went, the portion is huge, delicious and worth your money. We left with a full tummy. We went in on a Sunday evening for dinner, all the stores in the area closed except for this restaurant, so it was quiet. There was 7 people in our group, we ordered several dishes and they all came out very quick. The dishes were delicious and big portion. Service was good, we didn’t have to wait long. The inside has been remodeled and look nice.“

“Never been here before today. Everything was great-the food, the prices, the service and the atmosphere. I will be back! I had the Kung Pao chicken with fried rice and crab rangoon.“

“LOVE Sang Sang. Right down the street from my apartment and the prices are low but the food is excellent. They’re my go to take out place!“

“good stuff. very reasonable price. 2nd visit in 2 days. That good.“

“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.“

“Excellent service.However, on the sweet and sour chicken the breading on the chicken was overcooked. It almost had a burnt taste to it. Just darkened way too much. The egg drop soup had kind of a peppered taste to it. I love ordering from Moonwok. Normally if I have chicken left over I save it for next day. I just felt like I cannot eat it second time around. I was just very disappointed this time around. ?“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“The food was amazing, the family who owns this establishment have owned it for a very long time, and they are honest hard working people. I left my wallet at their restaurant and they secured it for me until I called the next day to retrieve it.“

“Sushi is always fresh and delicious.“

“Food was great! Prices were reasonable especially for the portion. The volcano shrimp however was a bit pricey for how much actually came. Overall would come here again. Food was super hot and fresh and flavorful! They also have a secret menu that comes on a piece of paper! I’d ask about that too ᵕ̈ more food options!“

“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.“

“Delicious Chinese Authentic food!“

“We really have loved our 5+ visits to China Star. Especially love the Garlic chicken (tons of sliced chicken breast) and beef and broccoli. I agree that the fried rice is not super flavorful, but it is good nonetheless. Great take out Chinese.“

“Always good. We eat here a few times a month on the weekends. Vegetable fried rice, extra egg, crab rangoons is my go to order. Always hot and fresh. My only gripe would be they can be stingy on the sauce packets, even when you ask for extra.“

“Being new to Mission, I've tried 4 dishes there now and am very satisfied. The service is very fast, the prices are accurate to the website and take out menu, the food is very hot and delicious and the servings are generous. Pricing is a bit lower than other Chinese takeout places, too.The steamed dumplings are great, General Tsos is not too sweet or overly sauced, the garlic sauce is perfection, and the Singapore chow Mei fun was soo good. I definitely recommend.I didn't care for the chicken fried rice (bland and plain) or the crab rangoon ( had a very sour taste, like spoiled milk and no sweetness).“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“First time there. Ordered pork lomein, it was decent, full of flavor and the fact it had broccoli was a plus. My only thing was it was the tenderloin style pork, and I prefer the regular sliced/strip meat. The portion size was very good, enough for at least 2 or 3 meals. Next time I will try the fried rice.“

“Amazing food, amazing staff!“

“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“

“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! 😌“

“Best Chinese food I’ve had! It’s always fresh and the staff is cool ✨“

“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.“

“We travel for work and this Father’s Day we were in Kansas City! So, I had to find a place for Peking Duck to have with my Dad. It’s an over 10 year tradition! They have Peking duck, but it’s called something else. It was amazing!! I worked at a higher end Chinese restaurant so I’m very picky with my Chinese food and this location really impressed! All the food was amazing, the waitress was so nice, and the restaurant was nice but not overly fancy. Would definitely recommend!!“

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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 excellent. On par with some of the most expensive Chinese restaurants. Bite into the chicken and it’s all white meat chicken with every bite. Excellent flavoring. The rangoons are generously filled and delicious. Nothing here is skimped. Prices are excellent. From a food quality to taste ratio I have not found a better Chinese restaurant in Kansas City. Highly recommended.“

“The BEST THAI FOOD we've ever had! Hands down. Bonus points...the staff are amazing, down to earth and enjoyable to be around, plus the whole atmosphere of the place is lovely. Had a drink while we waited for the food to be made. Lots of orders going out the door. This place is a hot spot for good eats. We ordered the Pad Thai, Pho, Treasure Bags, and more. This place can accommodate vegetarian and gluten free dietary restrictions too. Fill-up foodies, it's worth it. We'll be back. HH“

“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.“

“Food and service was amazing for what me and my wife got they were also willing to give her a different dish she forgot to tell them she didn't want vegetables with no arguing they were quick to change music was loud hard to hear over it and also the setting was nice

Parking: Getting a parking space is easy backing out and driving to the street is a little more difficult when parking lot is full“

“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“

“The food was very good and fresh. The owner himself prepared our lunch.“

“I love Chinese food and his carb rangoon is the best out of the 10 or so Chinese restaurants I've eaten at. Thick cheese, crispy rind, whatever I order, I have to bring it with me. I'm sure anyone who eats it will come back for more.“

“Really good food I ordered is the sweet chicken breast and good food rice of it ,really good I will tell you that is the best food that from a restaurant ⭐️⭐️

Dietary restrictions: It really kind to me when they say like if you needed something

Kid-friendliness: That it make us happy and the people who treat us kind“

“Best Panda experience I've ever had!!! Manager was AMAZING ?

Had a last minute family get together and my order changed from 15 people (few family meals) to 30 people (catering trays)at the last minute. Manager and rest of the crew got that massive order done with a smile and the best attitude and still got it done an hour ahead of when the app said it would be done!!!! Food was hot and fresh and portion sizes were great!

Great value and the best crew!!! Will definitely go out of my way to go to this Panda in the future!!!“
