    The best general Tao's chicken you'll find.

    I drive a long way just to come here this is the best Chinese place in town! Their chicken is perfect and crispy.

    Orange chicken and General Tso's Chicken combos

    We've been looking for a solid orange/general tso's chicken Chinese spot all over STL for a couple years and were always disappointed until we found 88 China. The chicken is actually crispy and the sauce is solid. We've come here 2-3 times and have always carried out, food is delicious even after the 15 min car ride. If you find yourself struggling to find decent Americanized Chinese take out in STL, you aren't alone and this spot is worth trying.

    Pork lo mein combination plate.

    This place is really good. I only give it 4 because out of the 2 or 3 times I've ordered it seems like something isn't consistent. The first time the rice was tasteless and then the egg roll wasn't good another time. That said this is one of my favorite Chinese places now. Their chicken wings are absolutely delicious and tasty and the pork lo mein is the best I've had. The portions are good, the combination plate is a little more than the average place but it's not too bad. Highly recommend.

    Chicken and broccoli

    First time eating here after having many friends recommend it. It was DELICIOUS! My husband and I and our 4 kids all loved it! We shared a bunch of dishes but loved the steamed dumplings, chicken lo mein, chicken and broccoli, and the vegetable rolls the best! Their white rice is the best I've ever had.

We were seated immediately, which we appreciated because we were tired and hungry. Since we already have our favorite dishes at Cate Zone, we knew exactly what to order as soon as our server came by. Our go‑to appetizer is always the beef tripe -- non‑spicy -- and it never disappoints. We always enjoy it with a bowl of rice, and the combination is incredibly comforting and flavorful. We also ordered the crisp shrimp with egg yolk, which is my 6‑year‑old son's absolute favorite. It's unbelievably tasty -- rich, crispy, and just out‑of‑this‑world good. For our last dish, we tried the crisp sautéed pork for the first time. This one didn't quite hit the mark for us. The flavor leaned sweet and salty with no spice, and it didn't have the same wow factor as the crisp shrimp we love so much. Still, it was worth trying something new. All our dishes came with a bowl of hot, steaming white rice, and everything arrived at our table in under 10 minutes -- their speed is impressive. The portions were generous, and we left completely full with leftovers to take home. Cate Zone continues to be one of our favorite spots, and experiences like this are exactly why we keep coming back.

The gaudy over-the-top remodel is gone, and the entire restaurant is modern, sleek and very comfortable, with a nice mix of tables and booths, with beautiful black and gold tiling on the floor, and interesting finishes to the ceiling. The entrance has changed with a maitr'd stand there and a wall, so you cannot see the diners from outside the restaurant. Very comfortable, very pleasant atmosphere. The menu has not changed, nor the prices. We have enjoyed the food since the new owners took over, and found them very obliging to special requests. I had Garllic shrimp, which is just large shrimp, very well cleaned, a lot of water chestnuts and mushrooms in a spicy/sweet sauce. quite good. My wife had Broccoli Beef. Either they use a better quality of beef than most Chinese restaurants, or it is marinated, but in any case the beef has always been very tender. Soups were spot on as was the traditional egg rolls. Service was attentive and pleasant. Prices are a little higher than most take-out restaurants, but in West County there are not too many choices. Highly recommended.

Apparently, they are the only Halal Chinese restaurant in STL! We started off with pumpkin sambosas: deep fried triangles filled with beef and pumpkin, dusted with powdered sugar. A good mixture of savory and sweet. Then we had to try their yellow hand-pulled noodles and they did not disappoint! I loved the bouncy texture of the noodles. The thick sauce had notes of spice and was slightly unbalanced but still yummy. It was perfect to sop up with their soft fluffy naan. Lastly, we got the sautéed mala chicken which was a massive portion for $26 - by itself, it could probably feed 3-4 people! It was truly mala (spicy and numbing) with generous Sichuan peppercorns. The chicken was flavorful, though slightly tough. This dish would've gone well with the yogurt drink. Overall, this was a great dinner for 2 people with leftovers. I'd like to try one of their lamb dishes next time. You should definitely give them a try!

This place is an absolute delight that's well worth your time. My personal favorite dumplings are the beef and onion, but all of them are great, the soup dumplings especially. And they color code the dumplings, which is helpful if you're eating with food restrictions. There is also a pretty good variety of foods, it's not just dumplings and a few sides. A buddy of mine got sweet potato fries once, and they were pretty good, and anytime I go, my mom asks for a poke bowl. I haven't had a dish I didn't like. The boba is also good quality, and is adjustable to your tastes---you can control ice, sweetness, anc caffeine levels. The honeydew milk tea is my personal favorite. The wait time is also usually fairly short, though if you're worried, they have multiple board games along with various knick knacks to look at. It's a great spot, so I certainly reccomend checking it out.

Strong green tea flavor if you're a fan of that. Prices were great! Very affordable. I got the crab rangoons which were very good and crispy. The dumplings were alright. The pork and shrimp ones didn't really stick out to me. The beef ones were good! My favorite of the three I tried was the chicken with shiitake and bok choy. I got them pan fried, but I felt like the sides of the dumplings were a bit doughy and undercooked. Overall a very nice place for lunch and a treat! Will definitely return.

The shrimp St. Paul was bland and didn't have many sprouts in it. Guess I'll have to drive to North County or the city for the best taste. Overall, the staff was nice and I didn't wait very long for my order but I likely will not return.
