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!“

“Solid Chinese takeout! We got the moo goo gai pan and orange chicken dinner combos, egg drop soup, and crab Rangoons. The only food we didn't enjoy were the egg rolls on the side of the dinner combos - they had a strange taste to them. Everything else was good though!“

“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!!“

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

“Overall great prices and amazing food! I enjoy going there with my friends since a lot of the meals are shareable which makes the experience even better. I will say if you come during a rush hour, you’re most likely going to be added to the waitlist and if I’m correct you usually have to put yourself on the waitlist once you arrive since they don’t really do call-ins. Other than that, this place is truly a must and I enjoy every little thing about this restaurant.“

“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“

“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.“

“I had three different non-alcoholic fruit beverages Blackberry, Lychee and passionfruit. Each of them was unique and delectable. Our server Byron was attentive, caring, and informative. The only downside in my opinion was each of the dishes that we got was a little too heavy on the sweet side. When ordering garlic noodles you expect to get garlic and noodles what the predominant flavor being garlic. I look forward to coming back here in the future! It was one of the more pleasant dining experiences I have had in the greater St Louis area in a while for a national chain restaurant.“

“A back alley restaurant with absolutely bussn food! Small and can get crowded quick but the food comes out quick. I had the best lo mein of my life here. The vibe is exactly what you'd expect so you know the food is going to be amazing.“

“I LOVE this location of Cate Zone. It is beautiful and much bigger than the U City location. They adjust the spice level and have fast service for both take out and sit down meals. Portions are large, especially the noodle soups. Several vegetarian options available.
Strongly recommend“

“Best food and customer service ever Please give this restaurant a try youll love it.“

“Always delightful service snd good food.“

“Self service restaurant, very affordable, nice taste
They have a lot of broth to choose from, but they have dry stir fry as well.

Anything you pick is delicious.

Place is kinda small but have enough seats.

Rice and water are free for dine in“

“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!“

“This review is for the bakery ONLY. Everytime we go to St. Louis, we stop here (We live at the Lake of the Ozarks). The mini custard pies are amazing, try the fried, sesame seed balls which are filled with two different kinds of bean custard, both are delicious.
The yeast buns are stuffed with a variety of sweets and cheeses and are killer. On the right side of the shop as you enter, there are usually a few versions of the Dim Sum they serve next door in the restaurant and they are all DELICIOUS!

I've purchased the Duck & the deep fried pork hanging in the window, several times & it's been legit. We buy half a duck because there's only 3 of us, but plenty. I always order a small order of their rice so we can eat our duck at the hotel.
It can be VERY crowded on the weekends, so come as soon as they open. There's usually only the one lady working the register and dude chopping up the duck & pork, but they're fast. A++++ It's not cheap but it's soooo worth it.“

“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!“

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

“Decided to try a new dish somewhere new to me. This was the best of Chinese options. Small. Unpretentious. Cheap. My entire lunch special was $6.99. I can't remember what I last saw prices like this, and the food was great. A little sweet. A little spicy.“

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

“I frequently dine out at places like Pei Wei but Pei Wei has become my new favorite. That is due in no small part to Jacinta, one of the employees. They were having a bit of a mid afternoon rush and she was acting as the cashier, server, bus person and just about everything else associated with front of house in a restaurant. She really hustled and took care of everyone efficiently and with a smile. Honestly if I wasn’t retired and was still in business I would try to steal her away. I’ve eaten at Pei Wei for lunch the last three days and I don’t see that trend stopping anytime soon.“

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

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

“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.“

“Great service and the food is amazing“

“Best Chinese food in the surrounding metro area. Hands down the best crab Rangoon I’ve ever had and the Chicken Szechuan is always on point. It is a little pricy, but we don’t mind paying a little extra for quality! Will be ordering tonight!“

“I can’t go all the way to south city so I searched until I found this place and it’s my go to Chinese food place now, love everything I’ve tried so far! The egg drop soup is amazing. Clean place and friendly staff.“

“I have been stopping at China in Bombay every time I pass through the St. Louis area for years, and it continues to be a reliable favorite.

This visit was no exception. The beef pho was outstanding. The broth was deeply flavorful, hearty, and comforting, and the portion size was enormous. Easily one of the highlights of the meal and something I would go out of my way to order again.

I also tried the cashew shrimp and the Szechuan chicken sticks. While I personally would have preferred the shrimp fried rather than stir fried, and the chicken sticks actually served on a stick, both dishes were still very tasty and well seasoned. The flavors were bold and satisfying, even if they were slightly different from what I expected.

The food quality here is consistently excellent, and the flavors feel authentic rather than watered down. A major plus for me is that the food is halal, which makes this a dependable stop every time I am in the area.

The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The space itself is small, but that is well known, and most people opt for takeout. Even so, dining in was still a pleasant experience.

China in Bombay remains a must stop for me whenever I am passing through St. Louis. Great food, generous portions, authentic flavors, and friendly service. Highly recommended.“

“The best beef fried rice around. Fair prices 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“

“I enjoy every lunch special I’ve ever gotten from here! Their wonton soup is Really Good!!! Everything is phenomenal I hope on day they expand and have a buffet with a Really enjoyable restaurant maybe some type of flowing pond waterfall inside it’s a nice place Great Quality Food for lunch or dinner
If you are handicap I bet if you called when you pulled up they would bring you your food to your car!!! It’s worth the experience“

“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!“

“Owners are super friendly. Probably the best Chinese food I’ve had!“

“Solid chop suey spot in the county. They are still serving up what I’m starting to think of as soul Chinese food. The box of rice we grew up on. It’s hot, reasonably priced, salty, and good. I hate how dirty the outside is and I wish they gave us a better experience but as long as the rice is good and the shrimp are clean, I’ll be back.“

“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.“

“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!!“

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

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

“This is my Go-to place. I don’t enjoy “St. Louis style Chinamen” so I opt for the more commercial style fast food Chinese restaurants. They always have the best Fried rice, wings, and crab Rangoons. Very friendly and accommodating if I want extra pork in my rice.“

“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!!“

“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“

“Yall better stop sleeping on Young's!! I'm always skeptical about trying new Chinese Food, but this place is FIREEEE!! The rice, noodles, crab ragoon and egg rolls!! They have really good customer service too, all the staff I've encountered have always been in a good mood, funny, very kind & really chill!“

“Excellent food and great service. We will definately go back again.“

“Very upscale and beautiful interior restaurant. Clean and peaceful feeling. Crab rangoon are stuffed full and very flavorful
They use round lo mein noodles instead of the flat ones and their sauce is good but not as seasoned as others I've tried. May be good for someone who is sensitive to strong seasoning.
Service was polite and super quick. We would eat there again.“

“I live in Atlanta now & the Chinese food pales in comparison to my hometown of St Louis. That said, when I come home I have to have some immediately. This time I happened to get in on Sunday. I was lucky to find one open. I called it in and was there in less than 15 minutes. The wings were great & piping hot! The vegetable egg foo young and shrimp fried rice had me moaning with pleasure. Whenever I come back home this St Louis Kitchen will be my first stop. The staff was friendly even though it was closing time for them.“

“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 “

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

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

“We went a couple hours before they closed so it was not crowded at all but the service was really good. The server was patient with it being my first time there. The food was plentiful; well worth the price. They have many options for sauce so you can make your own flavor boosters and it was really clean. Would go again.“

“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.“
