8 Best Chinese Restaurants near Peculiar

“Just off 71 hwy, barely in Peculiar; tiny, locally owned, and sometimes closed for months. It is the best Chinese food I have found in the metro area. Mostly carry-out and an eat-in blue collar lunch crowd. As a single lady, I usually spend about $30 (including tip) for a lunch meal with rice and egg roll and get side orders of 6 crab Rangoon and 8 dumplings to eat on for an entire weekend. Tastes amazing every time. Rotate between shrimp in garlic sauce (brown) or lobster sauce (white).“

“I discover this place while ubering yesterday and the food smelled so amazing in my car I knew I had to check this place out. The food was excellent and tasted so good from the soup, crab ragoon. The best hot and sour soup I ever tasted. I had the Shrimp and Vegetable in brown sauce. I live 20 minutes from this place. Trust me it's worth the drive. Once a week I will be there.“

“I used to dislike Chinese food. Lucky Wok has turned a new page for me. I've eaten here 3 times, and each time has been a home run. I'm not a big veggie guy, but I've grubbed up everything that has come in my Kung Pao Chicken and Szechuan Chicken dishes, even the fried rice. I like things on the spicy side, and I personally think that they could take the spice marker up 2 or 3 notches, but the flavors are very good and blend well together. The wife and I prefer to dine in so that we can eat while the food is hot. There are 2 very nice tables and 1 small table available in the restaurant. There's never anyone eating there, so we don't get bumped out of a place to sit while we dine. Service has never been rude; in fact, the folks who've taken our orders have always been very polite and courteous. Lucky Wok has earned a regular spot on our Lee's Summit lunch list.“

“fresh food. I tried in different places but nothing like this food. it's delicious. good amount of food. I definitely recommend it 👌“

“The BEST local Chinese food around! Consistently fresh, delicious and fast. Super easy to order online for carry out. They are not open every day that website states, so recommend calling to make sure they are open. Well worth waiting to eat here as nowhere else compares.“

“We moved to the area over 2 years ago and have been trying to find a Chinese restaurant that we like. I thought we had tried them all when my husband stumbled across Taste of China while running an errand. When you walk in to order, they start cooking your food then so it is fresh!! My favorite dish is spicy garlic shrimp and I rarely find someone who makes it to my liking but they do! My husband has ordered multiple dishes and they have all been really good! Highly recommend!!“

“The food was tasty & we were seated quickly. There isn't a huge variety, but since it's in a smaller town that's probably necessary! They did have enough variety that I'm sure anyone can find something they'll love! The fried shrimp are really good!“

“I came in on a Saturday at 12:15pm. to give the Oriental Garden a try being I was in Raymore.

Other than myself, there was a family of five present and nobody else patroning the restaurant at the time.

Unlike previous posters, as of writing this review, the restaurant did not have a buffett.

Upon entry, the gentleman behind the counter was very kind he got me seated quickly and took my order.

The overall wait time on the food was very short ( within 5 minutes)
1 large beef fried rice
2 pork egg rolls
3 crab Rangoon
1 pepsi
Came to 20.68 ( Picture included in the review)
The price was about on average with other take out style restaurants around the area.

As per the taste of the food,
It was on par once again with other restaurants in the area.

The restaurant did seem clean, along with the restroom.

So, in closing,
Would I discourage a visit to the Oriental Garden in Raymore?

No, I would not, and yes, if I was in the area, I would return more than likely. However, I would not drive out of my way to come back here, on the other hand.

A fair review to me would be an upper 3, maybe lower 4.“
