Chinese Restaurants near Ellisville

“Super friendly and delicious food!!! Been looking for awhile for my go to take out place- I found it!“

“Best Chinese Food in West County!!! Everything is fantastic!! Our family will not go anywhere else!! Their sushi is amazing too!!“

“Love the option for placing the order online to pick up in store. I with the food was fresh EVERY time. We've been a few times when it was sub par, as with any other fast food establishments, hit & miss sometimes. Glad to have this in Ellisville!“

“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.“

“We were very disappointed that the sauce which came with the steamed dumplings appetizer has been changed significantly. Is way too spicy. Even the meat on the Mongolian Beef was not as tasty. Also, we used to be able to get sweet and sour pork even though not on menu, but now can't. Whoever changed the menu's and recipes should reconsider to avoid reduction in business. Thanks.“

“Good food, kind of expensive. It's worth it for the place itself (clean, good decor) and was quick too. One dish is enough for one person (I was afraid it'd be too little). They also have good vegetarian options. Anyways, I'd reccomend the eggplant and dumplings!!!“

“Quick, friendly service! We started with Shumai and Soup dumplings and both were delicious. The Miso hotpot was to die for as well as the Crispy seafood noodle. And to top it off we got the Brown sugar milk tea shaved ice. This place definitely lifted our spirits and got us out of the winter blues.“

“Called and went in to order within 20 mins of them closing. Not only were they super friendly. The food was great, all prepared fresh and did not wait for very long at all. I will be ordering from this place for all my future orders. Thank you all very much... It even all is given to you to carry out in sturdy reusable shopping bags!!!“

“On a road trip this happened to be one of the restaurants that had a higher star rating so we stopped. I miss Chinese food being this good! We had the general chicken and crab rangoons. It was all very good! I drive through here a few times a year and this restaurant just got added to my itinerary every time. Thank you so much for the awesome food!“

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

“I will go to no other place for Chinese. The owner is the most politest person in the world.“

“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.“

“The food was fresh and delicious. The folks working clearly communicated times and I even heard them worn others of long waits before taking orders. Not much atmosphere to speak of. It’s your old school pickup Chinese restaurant. Pictures are of general tso chicken and orange chicken. It IS NOT heavily breaded like many other places. It felt light and healthIER than other Chinese places. I’d highly recommend!“

“The menu is great and they do not over salt. They also gift you some of their cookies which are delicious
in addition to fortune cookies. Always kind and good service. They make everything to order. So glad theyve stayed in Eureka.

Vegetarian options: Ive never ordered veg items but they will accommodate most dishes to veg if asked“

“I just placed a $330 order yesterday (New Year's Eve) for my extended family. The reviews I read were accurate. The inside has a faint cigarette
smell. None of the employees speak English. But it was very clean.
I placed my order over the phone and when we got back to the house none of the 20+ orders were missing or wrong. The General Tso shrimp had big shrimps in the breading. We'll be using this place again for our big order next year!“

“All Chinese restaurants in St. Louis are what I call fake Chinese food. However, I like to judge them by how they make their Singapore Mei fun which is what I always order. Well this one is delicious! Mei fun means rice noodles and Singapore Mei fun has all the meats including shrimp chicken beef and Chinese bbq pork in a slightly spicy yellow curry sauce. I give 5 star also for friendliness!“

“Delicious comfort food! 😋“

“Great menu with classics and harder to find dishes. Love the sizzling spinach and the chicken 65. Great prices and very nice staff. Would recommend for lunch special or takeout or anything else :)

Vegetarian options: Great veggie section including a lot of options for the lunch special.“

“Good take out for regionally adjusted (seasoned) Chinese food. This trip, the food was on the very sweet side (seasoning). The sweet was prevalent throughout all of the cooked items. The steamed rice was of good quality. They accept credit cards, and food can be ordered online. Though there inside seats and tables, eating in not really an option.“

“We had a lot of questions, they answered each one with kindness. Food was great!“

“I don't know what some of the people reviewing expected, but as far as this area goes, this is the best chinese food I have been able to find. Crab rangoon and lo mein are top tier. Szechuan Beef and General Tso's are really good as well. Skewers and spring rolls were meh but other than that I really like the quality of 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.

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

“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!“

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

“We’ve ordered from this restaurant for 2 years now and have had no issues. When ordering, delivery or with the food. We’ve tried other places, but always come back to this place.

Vegetarian options: Mapo Tofu is delicious!!“

“Came here a while back and was recommended this restaurant. I did an online order and got a bunch of food to celebrate my partners birthday. I started off ordering appetizers like Crab Rangoons and Fried Pot Stickers. Then got a quart of Egg Drop Soup, Fried Rice, Pork Fried Rice, Vegetable Fried Rice and White Rice. An order of Lo Mein, Beef Lo Mein, Chicken Lo Mein, and 2 Vegetable Lo Mein. For the main dishes I ordered Beef with Broccoli, Orange Chicken, 2 General Tso's Chicken, Shrimp with Cashew. The employees were very nice and even help me carry the food out. I really liked the Crab Rangoons and Egg Drop Soup. But everything else was really tasty as well. Cannot go wrong here and I really recommend this restaurant.“

“After trying several other places in the area, we finally decided to give this place a try as it's super close...SO GLAD WE DID. It is absolutely our new go-to place. My 14yo even requested it for a birthday dinner with friends...we ordered 9 combination dinners with additional stuff and the whole order was perfect. Everyone loved it and there are plenty of leftovers. We love that they have the combination dinners...entree, rice/noodle choice and either crab Rangoon or egg roll for a great price.“

“Came in during a busy lunch rush and placed an in-person to go order.

Got the Orange Chicken combo and a half order of beef lo mein-- $15 altogether for a lot of food

Orange chicken is well cooked and flavorful, with a very orange-forward sauce that goes well with the rice too. Also was surprised to find extra chicken under my rice for a pretty generous lunch portion at a great value-4stars

Egg Fried rice is fine, nothing special but also got the combination rice not a standalone full order. Could probably use a bit of onion to hold more flavor- 3.5 stars

Crab rangoons are very good, sweet and pretty cream cheesey. Well fried with a tasty wonton too - 4.5 stars

Beef lo mein is fine, a bit greasy without enough flavor to be really worth it, and the beef is a little too chewy- 3 stars

They were really busy for the lunch rush, so I can give them a little slack for that but still not ideal to wait 20 minutes for a to go order (on food that's already prepared) all of the staff were very nice though, seemingly family-run- - 4 stars for service

All in all a pretty solid strip-mall stop for local (americanized) Chinese food. The staff were certainly overloaded with online delivery or pickup orders, I saw about 10 of those get worked on while waiting for mine to get filled. Will likely try again, but will order ahead online.“

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

“This was our first visit. We couldn't dine in because that part of the restaurant was closed and we paid for our order upfront at the grocery store's cashier. It took a while but everything was worth the wait!

We ordered jajangmyeon, beef bulgogi and crispy tteokbokki. These were delicious!! The portions for each dish was enough for two of us since they were heavy and filling.

We will definitely be ordering online and have it delivered next time we have Korean food cravings.“

“I just discovered the beef Lo mein here and it’s the best in town! I have ordered it a few times this week (consistency), has been GREAT every time! Not a huge fan of the pork egg roll but the spring one is good! Plus the lady upfront seemed very pleasant!“

“Love the Pho here!“

“We always get our food to go so I can't say much about the atmosphere. The food is exactly what you want when you think of getting Chinese takeout. The Crab Rangoon is better than anywhere else we've tried. We love it and won't go anywhere else!“
