“The Food was really good exceptional even better than I expected. The rice was fluffy not dry with bean sprouts onion green pepper and eggs I got special loaded with meat. The wings were on point and I will def be back. The service was fast and friendly and the food was served hot and fresh. It's a smallish front bout who cares the atmosphere was good and they are serious about their product. We will be back and we will bring friends“
“2nd time coming back! This time we dined in since we needed a break from driving! Got the chicken and pork. Flavorful as before! Although the pork ones were better! They had a chili that was yummy too! Since we dined in, we got complementary chicken broth soups! Very flavorful as well! Love this place!“
“Basil India makes some of the most flavorful Indian food I've had in recent memory. Every dish I've tried is bursting with flavor, and is served temperature-hot, and spicy-hot (if you please). Vegan options are few, but those they do have are excellent. The wait staff are friendly and attentive.Yet I don't enjoy hanging out in the restaurant. It is too brightly lit (at certain tables, you feel spotlighted), the furniture is not comfortable, and, worst of all, it is loud. You will hear clamor from the kitchen, the loud banter of other diners, and music that is turned up too high. I enjoy the food immensely, but when I dine in, I want to eat as quickly as possible so I can get out of there. It's not relaxing.If Basil India can fix the ambiance, five stars all the way! In the meantime, I will keep ordering the incomparably zesty Vegan Tikka Masala for takeout.Vegetarian options: Vegan Tikka Masala is amazingly flavorful. Lotus Seed Thai Curry is a close second.“
“Food is great here, the area is a little sketchy, but my issue was how high the prices went up. Last time I went (4 weeks ago), I ordered a whole order of shrimp fried rice added egg, bean sprouts, and green onion. That was a $20 box of rice. Too much for some veggies added and egg.“
“Food was fantastic. Servings are large. Menu is a little confusing -- I wasn't sure if I'd get sauce so I unnecessarily double ordered. Beat crab rangoon in St. Louis. Might be the best Beef w/Broccoli I've ever had. Potstickers are above average. A little thick for my taste.“
“Non-descript corner bakery that serves authentic Chinese bakery items along with roast meats and a smattering of dimsum dishes. Gets busy on weekends around late morning. Has other branch on S. Grand but that location has a smaller assortment of items.“
“I have been going here since I was a kid, many years ago! Moved around a lot due to military and never found better tasting Chinese food!John, the owner makes the best dishes, consistently good. I return whenever I’m in town, he knows me by name and remembers my order.Best food, best customer service , a must have if you’re in the STL area.You can thank me later ?Parking: Open lot with plenty of spaces, free parking.“
“27 years and i have never heard a complaint about their food...the location is bad but thats what makes it unique and heavily regarded...hood chop sueys are the best...and this one is by far the best in the State if not, the country...5 stars because the location is not bad to me..im from that street...All Love and the Yet Bun family will always have the hood's respect and security...Rice is never dry or bland..plain rice taste good you know its poppin..conclusion HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for anyone not scared to go there...BEST CHINESE COOKED FOOD PERIOD...“
“Tiny spring rolls, with thin paper!STILL GOT THE FREE VESS @ the hood chinamen. Popular in the neighborhood. Quick service. No call-in orders, no waiting area, no heat. *update what did I find in Family Dollar down the street? Do you see it.“
“I’ve been to Cate Zone, the other good Chinese place in STL. Two very different restaurants, but Vegas Wok edges them out. 10 (no need to add on to the bill since no waiters) bucks buys a fantastic beef plate with veggies and rice and an excellent crab Rangoon. Many other things on the menu, like pork and braised beef and scallops. All good. I’ve never been in a smaller restaurant but it never gets too busy to get a table.“
“They are ok. Not the best in st.Louis I asked for dark rice, it was not dark, I asked for no onions or Bean sprouts of course they added onions. After picking out the onions the food was still good.Vegetarian options: Veggie rice is cool. They don’t add a lot of veggies tho.“
“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!“
“The ladies I was talking to said they had been there for 41 years.... the Food tells you that is the reason. It smells so good in the restaurant. Food smells so good it isn't funny as to how much shrill giggles I got from my wife and daughter when they smelled the food as I walk into the house. We are so full but will definitely make this the only place we go for chinise food in St. Louis. I LOVE HO!!!!!!“
“Best Chinese food in STL. The food is hot and always fresh. The rice is STL style and fried. I enjoy the chicken or shrimp fried rice. But the special fried rice come with all the following as well as beef. Their platters are reasonably priced. Honey chicken is one of my my favorite combos. The St. Paul sandwiches are delicious as well. Their fried wontons is my favorite appetizers but the eggrolls are delicious as well. This place has been open for about 40 years that i know of and has been in the same place. You will Njoy this food! And they have Vess soda which is StL stample. Njoy!.“
“The food is good, especially for the price. They dont put peas and carrots in their rice like most county chinese food places do. I called my order in and called back to change it and the person who handled my order was very kind and patient.“
“This is a little hole in the wall in a tiny strip mall. I had read decent reviews and was excited to try the place. I placed an order by phone and was told it would be 10 minutes. I got the combo plate as I ordered after the lunch hours. It was the pepper steak with onions, with white rice instead of fried rice, with crab Rangoon. The serving size was ample. The food was all still hot when I opened it at home. The dining room was closed, so it is strictly carryout. The staff was friendly. The food was delicious, and I look forward to trying other menu items when I come back.“
“If you are into Thai Cuisine then this is the spot to go in the CWE! The hospitality is great! Everyone is so friendly. The Lo Mien is superb! Every time I go I try something new. If you are in to egg drop soup, they have the best! For you spicy lovers, Start with the Spicy Thai Curry Chicken it’s pretty tasty. The mango milk tea is just the right blend of sweet, fruity, and still the classic tea flavor. They are mid range as far as your money, so $20 at lunch will get you some wings, noodles or rice and a drink. They also have lunch and dinner combos too. Go check them out!“
“I go there for saint paul sandwiches only so my rating is for them only. If you looking for total menu sorry. Their saint paul sandwiches are the best I drive ? 10 miles for them, dedicated. They are hard to catch though. Their so good they can control their hours ?“
“I took my daughter who's 2 on her first bus ride. It must've been God's Plan. Our scheduled day had changed just as our little adventure had begun. At first, we were just going to go home. Instead, we detoured inside to the KING CHOP SUEY on West Florissant. We had such a wonderful and memorable time! The lady took our order and was so very patient. She made our day so much better. (I wish I had learned her name.) My daughter and I sat in and ate. Well, I sat, the baby sat every once in a while. (terrible 2's ?) No one complained, made faces, or gave any attitude. The food was SO GOOD, even the Crab Rangoon! It was hot, fresh and made just as asked. She called out my order as a number but I didn't have one. (it's on the receipt btw). I told her she hadn't given me a number. She didn't argue that she did or give me any flack. She just asked what I ordered. I found it later in my pocket later with my change. (Sorry Ma'am ?) I also asked for something so my daughter could eat on her own. She gave me a cute little baby sized box. It was perfect. The place was very clean, AND I felt safe, which is really something to say in St. Louis City. So, as we're walking through the door later that night, when we FINALLY got home, the first thing my daughter said was RICE!! So we ate the leftovers. That was probably the clearest thing I've heard this girl say besides No, Mama, and Juice. Thank You Guys So Much!!! If ever I get another chance, I'll be back. I definitely recommend this location to others. A much better than their competitors. (Place Unspoken)Kid-friendliness: My daughter and I sat in and ate.

“We never been here before and lived close to it for 7 years! Best Chinese food around and c Robert and his wife Wing are very friendly and remember customers and their names! Will be going back for Moreeeee!!!!!!!! They are open Monday through Saturday from 12 noon to 6 PM!“
“This is one of the best places in st. louis to get rice. Only thing is they are getting sometimey with the flavor profile. I personally love their pork fried rice and have not had any to match it yet. and the crab ragoon, forget about it!!!!! Excellent. All in all a place I love to frequent.“
“I have been here 2x, once for dine in and once for carry out and have had great experiences both times. The menu in the cwe is different from the chesterfield menu, and everything I have tried so far has been good. The 1st time, I tried the shrimp udon. It was delicious and the shrimp were huge. The 2nd time I do the spicy chicken wings, and even though the wings were small, they were very flavorful. Fries were just okay, but everything else was delicious! Service has been quick both times and they did a great job of packaging everything up when I did take out. Staff seem friendly . It's a decent space, and they have a large tv on. Cute decor overall. Per usual parking in the cwe is not my favorite, but I will def come back and try more!“
“Such a homey restaurant. It reminds me of my grandparents houses. The food is very authentic and delicious. Reminds me of a home cooked meal from my grandparents. Food served quickly and it's hot when it gets to your table. Rice is self-service and it isn't the freshest rice but you can get as much as you need. They do ask what you would like to drink but you can also grab it yourself at the fridge in the front of the restaurant. Desserts are also self service in the same fridge. 100% recommend the egg pudding.“
“Hunan Yu is a nice little Chinese restaurant. There's several Chinese places that are what I call McPandas: very similar looking Chinese places that are almost interchangeable. Hunan Yu is NOT one of those. While small, it's got it's own unique decor and a handful of tables and booths. The food is excellent, and the staff is warm and kind. They now have online ordering, if that's your thing; but I usually phone my order in...and rarely have to wait more than a few minutes once I arrive.“
“Very inexpensive but the reason is that the food is vegetable heavy. Food is still very good and if you're a veggie fan, probably the best place in town.I'm an out of towner but the St Paul Sandwich was good. I can't compare it to whatever the St Louis standard is though.“
“The best Fried Rice in STL. It's dark and flavorful. This time I went and tried the happybox. Yes it was heavy and too much And yes it was a flavor bomb! You can definitely share this one. I lived in STL for over 30 years and this is my fav fried rice for sure! My parens who are native St Louisans as well and grew up on the North side agree.“
“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.“
“On a busy Tuesday afternoon, I was craving some fast and authentic Korean-Chinese food. I haven't been able to find a place that fulfilled my cravings until now! I ordered one Jjamppong Seafood ($19) and one Sweet and Sour Pork ($16) to-go. Along with my dishes, fresh rice and a side of kimchi were packed. Even after the delivery time, the food was piping hot, fragrant, and fresh. The Jjamppong Seafood had fresh noodles that complimented well with its sweet, slightly spicy, and garlicky broth. For a flavorful seafood noodle soup, I found around three shrimps, a good amount of tender octopus, a couple chewy mussels (slightly over cooked possibly due to the very hot broth), and a variety of vegetables-zucchini, onions, and carrots. For my Sweet and Sour Pork, I was surprised at the small amount of fried, battered pork with it being $16. However, the pork dipped in the delightfully tangy and sweet sauce packed a lot of punch. If you're not a fan of tangy, almost-vinegary flavors, I would not recommend it to you. To explain my 4/5 stars rating, the kimchi was very salty and bland. I wasn't sure if this was a new batch of kimchi that had not been fermenting long enough or if they made it with a lot of salt to begin with. I had hoped to refresh my palate with a bite of kimchi but could not bring myself to overcome its overwhelmingly saltiness. Lastly, menu items are on the pricier side. Personally, I thought the Jjamppong Seafood was worth it, considering its well-sized portion. Overall, both my dishes did not disappoint! If you are new to trying Korean-Chinese food or even trying to find somewhere good, I would highly recommend this restaurant! I'll definitely be back in-person to explore more of the menu. P.S. Do you prefer soaking the pork/beef in the sweet and sour sauce or just dipping?! I prefer the latter to maintain the meat's crunch!“
“Had there food for first time a order of shrimp fried rice and order beef fried rice and Crab Ragoon omg it was very good cant believe ive been passing by this place coming home everyday and just Trying 4 1/2 Star Ratings only because Parking jack up.“
“Ambiance = none I stopped in for plain white steamed rice to go. The smells are AMAZINGLY DELIGHTFUL so upon entering I was disappointed to see a large too With really no decor only tables and chairs. I did not go on a tour, nor peruse the online photos so I'm guessing that the back rooms are sexy intimate dining rooms. But that's for you to check out! Enjoy“
“This little gem ? was a wonderful place to stop in for you favorite Chinese take out. The establishment is very clean. The lobby and restrooms were sparkling. Service is friendly, efficient, and customer focused. The food was really fresh and tasty. We got the appetizer sampler, cashew shrimp, and pepper steak. There was way more food than 2 people could eat for lunch. We chose to dine in and their presentation was lovely! It felt much more elevated than a typical strip mall take out shop. 10/10 would recommend to anyone who has a craving for plump rangoons and tasty fried rice.Wheelchair accessibility: Parking lot, side walks and store are ample, stable, and accessible by wheelchair or other mobility devices.“
“The food here was great. Rice was smoky and delicious and lo mein had bell peppers and a slightly sweet|sour sauce on the carrots. A different take that we really enjoyed. Staff was also very kind when we got stuck due to a tornado warning.“
“Best Chinese food hands down I live in the county and I drive here once a month sometimes twice to get me and the family the Saint Paul,the best crab Rangoon, fried chicken wings, I get shrimp fried rice with ham extra eggs and yes bean sprouts Omg so good I also love there funnel cakes!!?“
“Someone mentioned that the Ham Fried Rice is the best around. True. Crab Rangoon was way above average delicious as well. Delivered by what was probably the gentleman that started this family business 70 years ago or however long it's been around. Love that kind of family business. What an absolute delight!“
“Every order has tasted great (and accurate) and we keep going back for more as one of our favorite carry outs. There are two Chinese places a little closer to us but this is worth the few extra minutes to get there for good food and reasonable prices.“
“Definitely a whole in the wall dive joint with no place for inside dining. Take cash because they don’t accept credit cards. This was the best place I have had for Chinese food. I got a St. Paul sandwich with Chicken Wings and Veggie Fried Rice. This place hits different from any other Chinese restaurants. Everything is seasoned well with lots of flavor.I will definitely return when I come back to visit St. Louis!“
“I have come here several times over the past several years. Today I noticed they were slammed. I took note of everyone working the front including the cook running in and out. Despite a rush, everyone was still very good spirited and polite. I was just sitting back waiting my turn and thinking I should take this time to make a review. The food is great and the people are always nice. I strongly recommend this place.Kid-friendliness: There's a play center for kids here.“
“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 “
“Great food, bad location. I would recommend this restaurant. One of the best Chinese food takeout in the city and county. The restaurant was recommended to me, now I'm recommending it to everyone...delicious! I've just learned they have another location as well, if you don't like to travel to the Natural Bridge location; but the food is great. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.“
“One of the best Chinese food spots in St. Louis - top tier fried rice, crab Rangoon and service. My family has been coming here since when we originally moved in the area back in summer 2007. The staff remembers us and is always polite and kind. I understand that everyone has different experiences, but as for my family... they've been nothing short of phenomenal! Love this place“
“Parking can be a bit expensive. The food selection is pretty large. The entrances move depending on the show that is in the center. There are plenty of bathrooms spaced everywhere. It is centrally located with plenty of places to eat outside near by.“
“Best Chinese food in Saint Louis. Best St. Pauls, rice, Rangoons, and eggrolls. Call ahead of time, it won't take that long. When you driving by, don't blink or you'll miss it. Parking "lot" is super small, just get in when you can. And it's one of the last places that still give you a free drink when you spend over $10!! Only thing is the hot wings. They're dry, no sauce. Not my thing, but the wings were still cool.“
“If you want an authentic Chinese food fair, this is the place! This restaurant offers authentic Chinese Chao Zhou cuisine which is the only one in St. Louis. The dishes are prepared with authentic spices and flavors. Don’t be confused if you can’t find the price for the dishes, just ask the owner and they will tell you. It is a small operation and you can take free tea and water from the “help yourself“ area. It can be easily missed from the street since no special advertisement is put out. After trying it once I’ll definitely come back for more delicious dishes!“
“This is one of the best Chinese restaurants I have ever been to. The customer service is outstanding. The food is outstanding. I absolutely love it here. They are always busy. They pride themselves on fresh ingredients and customer service. I highly recommend this place.Kid-friendliness: They go above and beyond with their customer service.“
“This China Wok is the best Chinese food my husband and I have had! My sister introduced me to it,its in her area. We drive from St. Charles mo just for this Chinese food. I like the owner Jason and the family. I highly recommend this China Wok.“
“Love the food and the people best chinamens I've ever had! And it shows with how long the line is they are always busy so if you think you are going to get your food fast no forget about it they are to busy. Maybe call in an order then pick it up when they say it's going to be ready but all in all very good food.“
“I was driving down West Florissant and needed to get gas and use the restroom, stopped at 2 gas stations, and neither one had a public restroom available. So I went to Lee's, and theirs was a lifesaver!!!The restroom was clean and smelled fresh!! I made a purchase and the food was hot and delicious!! The cashier stopped his stocking and immediately waited on us. Thank You!!!!“
“THE BEST CHINESE FOOD in St. Louis is served here! The food takes about 10-15 minutes to make once they take your order which is 15-20 minutes faster than some others we’ve visited. That being said, their combo plates are awesome! I also recommend their spring rolls (light and fluffy) and their almond cookies are 3 for $1.00! Ands taste great! This restaurant is very reasonably priced in spite of inflation. There were three of us who ordered from there and the cost with combo plate, 1 set of 3 cookies, an order of spring rolls (and egg roll that comes with combo plate) was around $13-$14 with tax. If you skip the spring rolls, it would be around $11. Or $10 if only the combo plate. I personally think this restaurant is a diamond that other Chinese food foodies have yet to discover. But I personally will stay a loyal customer because the food is just devine! I ordered beef broccoli. If you like these two foods, I suggest trying it at this restaurant! There is a sauce that permeates the fish even past when the food it gone. Food stays minister and hit to the end! Not spicy at all. Also, their menu puts a hit pepper emoji next to any spicy foods on their menu so no awful surprises for your tongue and taste buds when your order is served. We did take out and even after driving home and unpacking groceries, this food was still hot (temp)! This restaurant is just so on point!“
“A great restaurant nestled in a fairly quiet neighborhood. The food was very good (with local recommendations, I didn't pick the most flavorful items). We received a good amount of food for not a bad price. Apparently this is a very popular spot for takeout on lunch breaks.Vegetarian options: Lots of customizability for vegetarians and labeled vegetarian/vegan options“
