Chinese Restaurants near Des Peres

“We ordered takeout last night, for the first time since the new owners had their grand opening. We ordered several dishes for sharing, cashew chicken, chicken lo mein, beef pepper steak, chicken pad Thai, chicken fried rice, Rangoon, egg rolls, and hot/sour soup. Everything was delicious!“

“This is the best Chinese place I've ever eaten at there not hesitant with portions and they are extremely respectful. It's clearly shown in their cooking how much care and love there is in this food. Please come here if you have a chance!“

“I don’t have any complaints about this place. The staff were friendly and seemed alright to me. They helped me and got me my food quickly. It is Panda Express so if you don’t like that it might not be great but it is in a food court so you got plenty of options. The portion was great, I got the one main dish and one side bowl. It was under ten bucks (I didn’t get a drink though). It was hot and tasted great. No complaints about this place!!“

“This was such a cute little family owned restaurant. While it looked like most people picked up for delivery, you can eat in and they give you paper plates. We ordered the popcorn chicken which had fried basil in it and it was so unexpected and delicious! My littles loved the stir fry noodles. Also unexpected was what they called Chicken Chili stir fry! The pork belly melted in our mouths!! Absolutely delicious. We will be back“

“Outstanding noodles and Bao Bun. Everything we tried was amazing! Worth the trip!“

“We have Open Table reservations at 6:15. We were seated very close to this time. We did not get our food delivered until 8:05. They said the wait was because there were a lot of take out and Uber Eats orders. They said Corporate does not allow them to turn off and therefore, the customers who are dining in have to wait. We have no plans to go back at this time. Very frustrating. Our server Blake did a great job with service. It was not his fault that management failed.“

“There’s a reason Cate Zone is a frequently celebrated restaurant in the St. Louis subreddit. It’s one of the best places in town and represents beautifully the diversity of the city. So many standout dishes: the crispy fish or shrimp, eggplant, tofu, cumin lamb, bok choy… Protip: go with a group of at least four and arrive at opening to get a table with no wait. Order n + 1 dishes and at least one order of crispy fish. Feast, everyone takes home a box of leftovers, and it’s never more than $30 a person.“

“NO vegetables in Shrimp St. Paul sandwich. Sweet & Sour Shrimp was 1 container of plain white rice, NO vegetables anywhere, the "shrimp" (2/3 plain fried breading & 1/3 shrimp) was NOT cooked in sweet & sour sauce, and packed separately. Quality is now abominable.“

“This is my favorite go to Chinese restaurant in St Louis!! All the dishes are sooo good, so good that I have to get 2-3 each time and have leftovers. My go to dishes are chicken n broccoli ( healthier), general tsos and the mei fun noodles Singapore style bc it has a little more pazazz with a light curry flavor!! The Mei fun Singapore style is a must try!!“

“Authentic yet accessible Chinese cuisine expertly prepared from fresh ingredients. Cate Zone is not like any other Chinese restaurant we've been to in St. Louis. Everything we've tried has been delicious. Try the Black Pepper Beef, the Pineapple Chicken and the Crispy Fish!“

“Always delightful service snd good food.“

“Hosts were attentive and frequently refilled our water cups. Everything was freshly made and hot despite it was a later dinner for us. Some food was bland (mushrooms) until combined the sauce from another dish. Buffet was reasonably priced at 12.95. We'll definitely be returning!“

“The BEST Chinese restaurant in Saint Louis. I cannot stress how clean the restaurant is and how great the food and service are. It is so hard to find a great Chinese sit down restaurant and this is the place. Fresh, delicious and always hot. I recommend this restaurant to everyone that I know. I especially enjoy Linda the server and how nice and intuitive she is to all her customers' needs. I give this place 5 stars. I absolutely love King Doh. The Best in the Midwest. Thank You!“

“One of the best in town. My favorite is Tomato soup base (imo, it's better than Haidilao) . If you want stir fry then go with no.7 . I have been here countless time and the quality is always the same. Highly recommended it to anyone who loves hot pot and authentic Chinese food.“

“Thank you Xièxiè nǐ! for one of the best customer service experiences since being back in the area! Your smiles and words shone during ordering, and when you came out to bring me our food! The egg dishes, such as St. Paul's and Egg Food Young, seem to contain double the eggs compared to other restaurants. I will be back to try the Teriyaki Chicken as you requested! Also, I love your presentation with the egg foo young! It keeps the egg warmer!“

“Whole duck was delicious. First time visiting and will be back. Didn't have a chance to try anything else because it was the day of thanksgiving and the kitchen was closed to their other items and all I wanted was a whole duck anyway but will go back to try other items of the menu. Duck EXCELLENT!“

“I love it, 10/10 recommend . Just remeber to bring cash.“

“The best beef fried rice around. Fair prices and great service.“

“The food was OK. I kind of felt that I got ripped when I ordered a whole order of pork fried rice. It came to a little bitty small plastic container. I was very upset with that because a couple weeks prior I ordered a half order of fried rice and it pretty much came in the same plastic container. I like my rice to come in boxes like old-fashioned way. But the food was very good though I still come back“

“The mixed vegetables delight is truly a delight to eat! Is my very favorite dish and oh so.healthy too“

“Nice service and the food was great. Not a big menu....we had it all. Nothing dissapointed.“

“My husband and I have been exclusively ordering take out from Here for 40 years. Rhe food is always great and they are so accommodating that when we moved slightly out of their delivery area in 98 they continued to delivery to us anyway. Love this place! Ordering tonight!“

“The sautéed broccoli is perfection. Tastes just the same as it did when I ate it in China. 🤤 My kids love the sesame chicken and chicken lo mein. It’s our go to everytime for delivery. The owner is also a very sweet woman.“

“Facebook is asking me "What do you recommend about China Garden on Gravois?" Well, I could - and truthfully should, write a whole essay on this subject. However I will not do so since I will instead be enjoying everything about my repeated excellent experiences at China Garden on Gravois. I will leave you with this note - China Garden on Gravois is stupendous and makes all other Chinese take outs look like imitators.“

“Amazing food, clean, and great service.“

“Love the food, love the friendly service. if this is your first time ordering take your time. there’s a lot to choose from. he will help you with whatever you need. if it is your second time he will more than likely remember your order, and always remembers his customers will always go back“

“Found this place on door dash and decided to give it a try. Or food arrived on time and was nice and hot, proteins are decent sizes and cooked perfectly, they followed the requests made on out order, were very generous with sauce and utensils. The food was DELICIOUS! Crab Rangoons aren’t too sweet and have lots of crab, lol main was delicious as well as the fried rice. The general Taos, sesame, sweat and sour and orange chicken dishes were all a hit with it family and kids. Will absolutely order again!“

“If you are craving great Chinese food, please consider giving this amazing little place a try. I found them during the pandemic and I think for an entire year while delivery was free on DoorDash I ordered them twice a week. The food was that incredible!

During that time I lived with my roommate and this place hooked us up with amazing portion sizes. We loved the Mai Fun noodles and there was always leftovers even between two people with one order! Honestly I still crave those noodles every few months or so, along with the teriyaki chicken kebabs; even with my regular order, there hasn't been a dish I've disliked so far in 4 almost 5 years.

I've never dined inside the establishment, but when I pick up my order it's always clean, the atmosphere is bustling, and the staff is so friendly. I'm not even ordering their food currently, and I didn't just finish a meal. I just noticed a past order and thought about how I needed to tell everyone how great this place is. 10/5 stars.“

“Oh my gosh this is my favorite pho spot it is very inexpensive especially for how much food you get. They definitely don’t scam you on the meat and broth is so so so good I feel like just get big hug when I eat this also I feel like the broth gets better every time.I personally recommend the steak pho but if you getting to go or just particular about texture of the meat get the flang on the side so when you plate it you then put the meat it so It’s not over cooked. 10/10 recommend“

“The ‘Hot Eggplant’ is great! Perfectly lightly crispy and seasoned just right. Fabulous!“

“I got the steak bowl with rice, chicken spring rolls, and banana Boba. all of it was so good. the bowl was so flavorful. I will definitely have to come back soon!!“

“We at at the restaurant. Everything from the front door to the tables and chairs was sticky. Which was disappointing. The food was brought to us in a timely manner. Everything was delicious! The lady and gentleman behind the counter were very friendly and took good care of us.“

“My first stop when I come in town from Florida. The food is the best Chinese food in the country. Not exaggerating. The chicken broccoli with garlic sauce is my favorite. The hot and sour soup is also the best I have ever had. The shrimp dishes are also delicious. The food is always very fresh tasting and cooked perfectly -- crisp vegetables & tender meat. The owner is so nice. I highly recommend Hunan Empress if you want a great meal with large portions and very reasonable prices. Simply put -- THE BEST!“

“just finished take out dinner from lemay wok, had forgotten how good it was.“

“It was my first visit and the produce was the best!“

“Always delightful service snd good food.“

“For what it is it’s pretty great. It’s a local family owned restaurant. They are always very nice. The prices are great, and the crab Rangoon are killer. I wouldn’t expect the best plate you have had, that’s tough in Stl. We have a great Chinese food scene here, but this place is a solid go to if you are in the area.

Wheelchair accessibility: I“

“first time coming to this place and wow. the food here was amazing even the fried rice which has peas and carrots in it. now for those who are local to St Louis know that peas and carrots don't typically go in Chop Suey fried rice but this place is the exception. besides the fried rice being phenomenal the roasted duck is delicious. but the star of the show was the pickled vegetables that came with the roasted duck. I am a person that absolutely hates cucumbers, but the way they pick up these cucumbers with the carrots was divine. I could have ate these things like grapes they were that delicious and I absolutely loath cucumbers. so all in all I give this place a solid 9.7 out of 10 rating scale.“

“Great service and the food is amazing“

“Holy cow the price was good. My family of 4 paid $33 and had enough food for 2 meals each. The rangoons, egg rolls, and fried rice are as good as I've ever had. I'd never had a St. Paul's sandwich before, so Chong Wah's was my first. It was delicious, huge, and only $5! The General Tso's was slightly less flavorful than I was expecting (my wife loved it though), but nothing a complementary little soy sauce and chili seasoning couldn't fix. The texture of the chicken was amazing too, super crispy.

Plan on carrying out whatever you order. The lobby is really small and full of stuff, so there's not much room to sit and eat. But if you're looking for carryout, this place is top notch.“

“Saint Louis Kitchen is my go-to restaurant for Chinese takeout. The portions are generous and the food is always good. I recommend picking up your order for maximum freshness, but I've never had a problem with delivery. Maplewood is lucky to have so many great places to eat, and Saint Louis Kitchen is one of my favorites.“

“They have great service it's best to call in ahead of time and go pick it up they have the best special fried rice they actually put stuff in it not like a lot of the other places that charge you a lot of money and give you nothing they're very generous great “

“I have only gotten delivery. The time was fast and the food was the best Chinese food I have gotten in St. Louis to date. The chicken was very fresh and well prepared. I called ahead and asked if they use day old chicken and the reply was no. Fresh every time.
A question you should always ask before ordering every time.“

“Best Chinese food in the St. Louis area..... I have been going there for years.“

“Very good and staff is very pleasant! Food is not salty which I look for in a Chinese restaurant. Loved it. Everything was great that we got. Crab Rangoon, egg rolls pork fried rice and orange chicken and cashew stir fried chicken. Can’t wait to go back.“

“We went here back in 1990. The food was awesome. So we stayed getting our food here. The service is quick and efficient. Have always got very fresh made food. We have tried a different place or two and that food never compares to Taste of China. Richard is awesome at the wok. He will make a special order for you. I wish they had rice noodle. But I understand that they have to stay competitive. Not everyone knows what rice noodle is. Thank you Jean and Richard for the awesome food and great service.“

“Delicious comfort food! 😋“

“Husband and wife run this place alone. Excellent service, food, and prices!“

“Best servers in the city.“

“They have the best food around me. They sold their original space for a club that literally closed down after 2 months. The serivice is quick. They get you in they get you out. I like that. I don't want to start up a conversation when I just want my food.“
