50 Best Chinese Restaurants near Maryland Heights

“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!!“

“My husband and I absolutely love this place! The food is consistently delicious and authentic, and we always make it a point to order and pick up from here.

It’s interesting how some reviews focus on things other than the food. For example, Debby Leonard gave it one star, mentioning the restrooms and the building, but she didn’t say a word about the food itself.

It makes you wonder—did she go for the food or the ambiance? If the food is what you’re after, that should be the focus of the review!“

“We've been going here for almost 2 years now. It's our go to for Chinese food and we've never had a bad experience. The food is always hot and delicious and super affordable, the service is always quick and friendly. I will always highly recommend Wok Express.“

“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.“

“We don't have a P.F. Chang's near where we live anymore. We are traveling and decided to visit this one. It was great. The food was as good a we remembered. This location is very nice. The staff was friendly and accommodating.

As a result of everywhere raising their prices so much, or dinner was less expensive than our hotel breakfast.“

“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.“

“The concept of this place is really cool. The ingredients are fresh and they offer a wide variety of selection for what you can put in your bowl and your soup base. It didn't take long for the staff to cook my bowl. Very delicious and filling. What a unique experience!“

“I tried this place a few times and the last time it was sooo delicious! The lady at the front had a rude and passive attitude. I let her know when I ordered I wanted sweet and sour sauce with the order. I had 3 egg rolls, a lunch plate, & a box of rice. When I picked up the order and reminded her I want sweet & sour she put it in the bag, staples it & handed it to me. I open the bag & it’s 2 packets of sauce in there. She put maybe 20 soy sauce, plenty cayenne pepper and only 2 sweet & sour. I said to her that wasn’t enough for what I ordered and she counts out 2 more and gives it to me. I again, tell her that isn’t enough for us and now I want to know how much it cost to get more because that was stingy of her. I would’ve paid for the sauce to begin with if I knew she was petty. $1 for 15 sauces is nothing. Why waste additional sauces I didn’t ask for and be skimpy with what I insisted I want? I’d be back because the food is good. Energy like that isn’t what people want before they feed themselves.“

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

“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!!“

“Great service and the food is amazing“

“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!“

“Ordered 7 items in the lunch menu. It was delicious. Best crab Rangoon and soup.“

“This is a cool experience if you never had hotpot before. You pick the base broth (you can pick 2), and order ingredients you like and pretty much cook your own food on the table. Everything is cooked in hot broth, so definitely super healthy. Lots of veggie selections, meat, seafood and starch. It is in the heart of the loop and very lively area all the time. There is a big free public parking lot in the back of the main area but you pretty much need to walk to where you want to be.“

“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.“

“Every time I order for delivery it’s here within 10 min or less and hot as ever! So impressive. Soooooo delicious! I find myself ordering once a week this past month 💜Tonight was Orange chicken and fried rice and the shrimp tempura sushi. I always have left overs 💜“

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

“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.“

“The restaurant was extremely quiet as I was the only one there. The food and service were wonderful, pleasant and fast! The atmosphere was a good vibe but, they had fans running which is fine but, on a warm day like today air would've been better. I will be back with my family!!“

“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.“

“This is my fourth time in St. Louis, and each time I've randomly ordered Chinese food, which has always been quite ordinary. This time, I ordered from this restaurant, and I think it's the best lo mein I've ever had. The large portion of lo mein was generous, and the noodles were very fresh! The General Tso's chicken was also plentiful and tasted good. If I come to St. Louis again, I will definitely visit this little restaurant again! By the way, the guy at the counter was very friendly and helpful!“

“🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🍴🍴🍴🍴🍴“

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

“Best Chinese in North County.“

“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.“

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

“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“

“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!“

“Best servers in the city.“

“It's like so many of the other fast food style Chinese restaurants around. The place was clean but you couldn't dine there. They were out of a few ingredients so he had the substitute some proteins for other proteins. The person that took my order was friendly enough, food was cooked and ready to carry out in the normal amount of time. Not sure I choose this restaurant the next time I want Chinese as they're just too many other ones to try as well. However important, I wouldn't not choose it because of anything that was wrong with it. I'm kind of looking for that special kind of place that serves food that I remember from a much younger day.“

“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 love this place. I do only get one meal from here because I am a very particular person. I get the HAPPY MEAL. It comes with rice, 1 piece of chicken, 1 egg roll, and 2 crab ragoons. It always get me pretty full and I have some left over for lunch or something most times.“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“Always delightful service snd good food.“

“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.“

“Crab rangoon, fried rice and egg rolls are incredible and very well priced! My husband and I both ate for $18 with plenty of leftovers! Highly recommend if you are in the STL area. I only wish we could have eaten inside because we were staying in a hotel 30 mins away so we ate in our car. So be ready to take it to go!“

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

“Amazing food and great service!“

“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!“

“We ordered Beef fried rice with no onions, crab ragoon, sweet and sour pork w/ pineapple, and sweet and sour soup. Did not know they were new owners. We did carryout for many years with old owners! Great food though!“

“This is my go to takeout place! Nothing turns a bad day around like Chinese food from China Garden! The employees are all fantastic and so kind. Their menu has every option you could ever want and I can get enough food to feed me the entire week for under $20 not to mention the freebies that occasionally find their way into my bag which always makes my day. I recommend this place to all of my friends and probably get take out 1 every 2 weeks or sometimes even once a week because I cannot get enough of their delicious food. They deserve way over 5 stars in my opinion.“

“STL Kitchen is my favorite Chinese restaurant in Saint Louis & I won’t go anywhere else! Their prices are so reasonable, the staff is very friendly, the food quality is delicious, & always hot. I love that they offer combo meals all day & not just lunch hour. It’s very friendly to the wallet! The crab Rangoon, orange chicken (no spicy) with extra yellow/sweet n sour packs is my go to order each time. I get really bummed when I’m craving Chinese food & I realize it’s a Monday as it is their day off. lol. I I love supporting small businesses! Go off, STL Kitchen! A favorite of mine for several years now!“

“China King is my absolute favorite place for Chinese food!!! They are always so kind and quick.. I have never had a single issue with their service... or their food.

I always get their chicken on-a-stick and an order of their crab rangoon... it NEVER disappoints!! Other places may also have chicken on-a-stick... but not like this. Always moist, juicy, and crispy... perfection on a stick!!

Their crab rangoon are some of the best St. Louis has to offer!! Hot, creamy, perfectly crispy...just .... divine. Partnered with their hot and thick house red sauce... not some watered-down sad excuse for sauce...hard to find much better especially for the price...

Great hours and plenty of space to dine in... absolutely worth it!!

🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤“
