Chinese Restaurants near Saint Charles

“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!“

“The staff is friendly, they have reasonable prices and they have the best General Tsos Chicken in the state!“

“First time patron. Receptuonist escorted me to a booth.ask for drink order. Afterwards I proceeded to self serve buffet. Food was fresh & desirable. Large selection on lunch buffett. Lunch price was reasonable.
My only minus is the restaurant appeared as if the interior was partially closed to the public. Inside boxes and other unused items were unsightly visible to customers who were dining in..thise un sightly items and the entire area It should have been out of sight from customers, especially those of us who were dining inside the 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“

“Me and my husband were so excited to go to P.F. Chang’s tonight, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint! It was not just the good food and drinks, it was the whole experience that makes this restaurant great. We had Rob as our server tonight, and he made us feel welcomed from the start. Rob was very genuine and knowledgeable about the drinks and food. Tonight we had the dumplings that came out steaming and delicious. As our entrees I enjoyed the garlic noodles and my husband had the teriyaki beef and fried rice. We finished off our meal by sharing that new butter cake, and we definitely recommend. I enjoyed a long pour of cabinet and my husband had the bud light. We felt that Rob was very good at his job, and we were glad to have him. We will definitely be back again!“

“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.“

“fast. good. and cheap“

“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“

“Max was so polite and thoughtful! He helped us choose what to order and what spice level suited us. It was phenomenal! The flavors were not lacking and it was a treat to experience another culture’s delicious cuisine. Thank you for being so attentive and providing us with an amazing dining experience. We will be back!“

“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!!“

“Fair prices٫ very nice employees٫ And delicious 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!“

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

“Kimmy and Adrianna were absolutely amazing! They were incredibly busy the entire time, but they still made sure everyone was taken care of. They were friendly, knowledgeable, and made the tasting a lot of fun. You could tell they were working hard, and they handled the rush like pros. I’d definitely stop by another event if they were there!“

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

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

“Best Chinese food ever! and owned by a great local family“

“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.“

“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!“

“A little hidden Chinese restaurant hiding behind the regions bank!

First impression: it’s dark, calm, and peaceful on the inside. Quiet instrumental music plays in the background.

The server was very kind and make very good recommendations. I recommend taking their advice on what to order for your first time because the menu size can be a little intimidating if you’ve never eaten there before.

It may be a special, I wasn’t sure, but I had the Viatnamese Coffee-YUM!!!! Not an overly sugary milk experience that you’d expect but a nice earthiness to it!

I ordered the boiled potstickers as my appetizer. Pretty great!

The main course was the Hunan Beef! Very colorful and FLAVORFUL dish! I was worried it’d be spicy because it has the 🌶 symbol next to it on the menu but I promise:not that spicy at all!

You won’t regret giving this one a try!

Will be coming back to try some of that chicken 👀“

“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!!“

“I made a mistake by failing to order a half order instead of a full order and didn’t realize until I went to pay. I was on a very tight budget tonight and after the counter lady gave me the price is when I realized I failed to order a half order. She was kind enough to go ahead and charge me just the half order even though I received a full order. I feel like Customer service isn’t what it used to be in the food industry, but she was kind and hospitable.“

“Food is good, usually I order online and I come pick it up. From what I have already tried the food is very good. Customer service can be worked on a bit. Usually always dead when I walk in so never have to wait in a long line. Overall good place“

“We've been going to Lucky China for some 15 years now (sheesh ya blink right...)

This place has always been our go-to for Chinese take out. The people are very friendly (though often busy/on the move) and they always nail our order (including changes to the standard menu). Over the summer we shifted from placing phone orders to their online ordering system which has worked out really well (allows you to leave notes if you need to customize a food item).

The food quality has always been great and even more so consistent even after all this time. We primarily do different variations of beef or chicken entrees, spring/egg rolls, crab rangoon, soups, chicken sticks, steamed dumplings, white/fried rices (pork/chicken), and the occasional lo mein or mei fun dishes.

Hope nothing but continued success for them, its one of those places that would be difficult if not impossible to find an alternative to.“

“Amazing food and great service!“

“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.“

“Had the great pleasure of working next door to China Kitchen, It was my go to spot for lunch and I would alternate between the orange chicken and General Tzo chicken with crab Rangoon. They get the food out in a pretty reasonable time and it’s great for taking to go.“

“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!!

🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤“

“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.“

“Amazing Korean street food spot tucked inside the grocery store! I ordered the beef bulgogi and dduk bokki, both were absolutely delicious and full of flavor. The store was very nice and staff was friendly and welcoming, and it was convenient to grab a few groceries while I was there. Such a great experience, will definitely be back!“

“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.“

“Looks like they expanded the dining space and it really brightens up the atmosphere. They provide a great portion of food for the price. Their Mapo Tofu dish is spicy but absolutely perfect. As well as the house rice, delicious 😋“

“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!“

“This place made me the best black pepper chicken I have had in 10 years. They are now my go to restaurant when I am craving it and the crab Rangoon’s were an excellent blend of sweet and savory. They are now cashier was excellent as well.“

“First time trying… We orders 16th of June near 8:00 and they were AMAZING! We ordered a fair amount and it was ready sooner than any other food place you can go to. Let alone, great prices, and hot food. They workers were so sweet and kind , and the atmosphere was amazing. So beutiful to sit and talk in. Love you guys! Will be back.“

“**UPDATE - someone must have read the below review because things have improved!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH! We love China Star!!!

I have been a faithful customer for years but the last 3 months or so the food has been TERRIBLE!!!!!

The owners seem to never be around anymore and the quality is suffering!!! Tonight I got my usual St Paul sandwich, they used bread and butter pickles rather than the usual hamburger pickles and it tastes disgusting. Last order my fried rice was burnt. The time before that my chicken was burnt.

I used to tip and every once in awhile the staff would give us a thank you in return like a bottle of soda or an extra crab rangoon. Needless to say they don't do that since the owners stopped working in house, and after the last three trips I'll never tip again if I even decide to go back.

Please look at my online order history! We usually order from your store every Sunday. I know how your food is supposed to taste, and something is definitely wrong!!!

By the way, I would have loved to speak to the owners any other way than a public Google review but there's no way to get a hold of them. I've even tried to message them on Facebook but no one monitors their page.

PS- please clean up that disgusting fish tank behind the counter. It's covered in mildew, grime and mold... not very appetizing.“

“My favorite Chinese place in town. It's not fancy - there are only three tables at this little hole in the wall. But the food is tremendous. Good serving sizes, reasonable prices, and the consistency is locked in. Try this place, you will love it.“

“Great food! Your employee very great and it Better than tequila mexican. Tequila mexican had a sick food from what I ate. I wish Audit check at tequila because it not totally safe eat there and I found a hair in my food plus chip taste like trash bucket. I would go eat at China place again. O one more thing, tequila employee took free maragrita and free alcohol shots when they closed for the shift. They were acting like they hiding of their boss without the proof.“

“I came here for the first time as recommended by a friend. I am absolutely in love with this play and order from here two days in a row. I now have a fav spot for when I visit St. Louis. Also the young African American lady that greeted me with absolutely amazing, enthusiastic,and made my experience truly inviting.“

“I have no idea why there are so many one-star reviews for this place. It's a fast food Chinese joint in a grocery store, and for what it is, it's terrific. The food is far better than any of Panda Express', and the people behind the counter are wonderful.

The people giving one-star reviews are mental. Were they expecting Maxi Noodle from a grocery store counter??“
