I love this restaurant it's close by The cleanliness, good service, food, never disappoints. The egg drop soup is the best.

I HIGHLY recommend this SE Asian restaurant and their cuisine. The quality is high and the experience is friendly. Consider trying 888 Bistro if you want carry out or dine-in. read more

Skip it. Meat is so chewy it's like leather and you can barely chew it. Chicken is thin low quality chicken. I bought $40 worth of food and threw it in the trash. Their egg rolls were the only thing edible. read more

Large portions. Friendly and accommodating for large take out orders. I was disappointed that thought it was delicious, the General Tso dish wasn't spicy at all. I recommend the hot and sour soup. read more

Tried this restaurant for the first time today. We chose take out selections from the lunch special menu. The wait time was under ten minutes. Ample servings of our choices were so tasty we didn't even open the soy sauce. My husband reported the bathroom was very clean; often a good indication of the cleanliness of the kitchen. read more

Disapointing. Although the egg rolls and egg drop soup werr good they forgot the pancakes for the moo shu pork. The person on the phone didn't seem to care. He wasn't even aware it was supposef to come with them, he blamed it on Grub Hub. The meal was ruined becaus i didn't have the pancakes. Its not the fact that a mistake was made. Im upset on the way it was handled. read more

Just had appetizers this time. Egg rolls were very good but the crab Rangoon was a joke. Basically deep fried wonton skins with a very tiny dollop of cream cheese. Horrible. read more

While touted as one of the top Chinese restaurants, boasting an additional authentic menu, we found neither statement to be 100% accurate. Was the food edible? Sure. Was the authentic menu authentic? I can't say, as neither My boyfriend nor I are qualified to make such a declaration. What I can say, however, is that the service was curt, the food was "meh" at best, and honestly, just a bit lazy. I realize we're in the minority here as far as our dislike of this joint - so I urge you, despite My negative review, if you haven't already, try this place out for yourself. Maybe you're experience will be...better-ish. read more

I don't do a lot of reviews, mostly because I am neither impressed or dissatisfied with most products/restaurants. I am in the area on business and am normally cautious about Chinese food outside of my regular at home, but after seeing the reviews I took a chance. Let me just say I'm glad I did! Not only was the food ready within the 10 minutes I took me to drive and get it but it was piping hot and tasted super fresh. The General Tsos had the right amount of spice which is rare for most places and the fired rice was well cooked, done but not dry. Even the fortune cookies were crispier than pretty much any other Chinese restaurant I have been to. And the best part you can order online for delivery or pick-up! Definitely a great find and would recommend to anybody in the area, next time I'm in the area I know where I will be stopping by. read more

WOWZERS! Husband and I stopped in for lunch and were astounded at the quality of the Chinese food here. Be sure and order off of the menu taped to the wall instead of the menu the waitress hands you. This is outrageously good, authentic, Chinese food. I probably won't eat Chinese food anywhere else for a long time. Take a look. read more

888 Bistro - a menu for a restaurant - Szechuan Near Me - East Moline, Illinois

Food was Meh at best. Couldn't even call the fried rice actual fried rice as it was bland and tasted horrible, also didn't look all that appeasing. The hot and spicy beef with cumin sauce does not look as pictured. And "with cumin sauce" means the beef and vegetables are doused in cumin, couldn't taste anything but cumin. Not impressed. read more

I tried this place with a family member, for the first time, this evening. I was pleasantly surprised, especially since we randomly chose to eat there, without knowing a thing about it. The service was fast, courteous, and friendly. The food was tasty (I had the Black Pepper Chicken and my companion had the Mongolian Beef). They didn't overdue it with soy or oil, which made the meal feel lighter than some other Chinese restaurants I've visited in the past. The restaurant was clean, orderly, and quiet. It was also family-friendly from what I could see. I'd like to try one of their authentic dishes next time I go. I'd definitely go back. read more

Place an order for orange beef and beef skewers got orange beef chicken and fried fish won't eat there again until they correct their mistakes just sucks paid over $20 for food and it wasn't right read more

I've been a fan for a while, as I've grown up in this area and eaten here often. Today (after 46 dollars worth of waste) I find out they infact are not as good as they used to be... My wife's vegetable Lo-Mein was decent... but, all of our orders of rice were clumpy and under cooked..(one chicken and one shrimp) not to mention how dry can you actually make rice?? Go get you some 888-Bistro and find out. I tell you what, I'm not usually a complainer but when you get 3 orders of Crab Rangoon and nobody finishes it.... something is wrong. My daughters decided on nuggets and fries which unfortunately stole the show.. very disappointing as I've bragged this place up to people. I don't want any money back and I for sure am not in the market to eat that again. Just want you guys to fix the kitchen or whatever is going on and get back on track Bistro. read more

First experience here tonight. The decor and atmosphere is a lot nicer than the usual Chinese places around here. Very friendly staff and my food was on the table within 5 min of ordering! Impressive! Food tasted great and the mousse at the end of the meal is a nice touch! Will definitely be returning. read more

888 Bistro - Chicken fried rice and crab rangoon - Szechuan Near Me - East Moline, Illinois

Yes! Love discovering great food. Be adventurous and order from the authentic Szechuan menu. You won't get fried rice but you will get the elusive pink peppercorn!! Spicy and delish and a little tongue numbing. Yum! read more

Friends and I have eaten here many times, and every time has been delightful indeed. The owners and staff are wonderful so I decided I would try ordering online as well. I could not be happier, the food is just as good as ever! Be sure to let them know however if you intend to pay via card rather than cash beforehand when ordering online for delivery. read more

this is the only place my husband and i get chinese delivery from. i've delved into their authentic menu a few times, and have always been happy and surprised with it. delivery is usually around an hour or so; be sure to plan for that. i've only eaten inside the restaurant a handful of times, but it's a really cute place. read more

Been a regular here. Brought my vegetarian family for dinner tonight. Ordered exclusively from the Authentic Chinese menu. Asked for a couple of chicken dishes to be made with Tofu instead. read more

The food was good... Until I found a hair... And then another... And then another. 4 hairs in total in my mei fun. It wasn't fun anymore...

The food here is awesome! Nice family owned business. Kind of weird they have little kids running around without shoes on, but hey, I guess it's a dinner and a show! read more

I went here with tempered expectations despite something of a quirky name. The food was among the best Chinese I've had from the crab Rangoon to the rice and odd cheese the main entrees of generals chicken and Mongolian beef. Everything tastes very fresh and perfectly prepared. The decor is nice and I found it interesting that they advertise large portions of to go crawfish, it would be interesting to try. Anyhow, this is by far the best Chinese in east Moline. read more

First visit last evening and the food is as good as it gets, interesting menu with lots of flavor. Will be a regular customer. Very nice clean decor and very helpful, friendly and informative staff. Would highly recommend! read more

Fantastic food and very friendly staff...loved the mousse at the end of the meal. Nice ambience

This place has decent food but when I ordered food for one and took them an hour 1:40!!!!!!!! I was Very Upset!

Heard great things about this new place so decided to have a "friend" lunch there + so glad I did. Server was very friendly plus just the right amount of attentiveness to our needs. Our entrees were tasty, hot and extremely fresh. The atmosphere was pleasant & the dining area clean. As a plus the staff kindly allowed us plenty of time for two good friends to "catch" up without that usual glance to let you know it should be time to go. AWESOME !!! read more

Will never go there again. I asked for extra soy sauce and when I got the food there was only two in there. I ordered two large fryed rices and how is that enough soy sauce. I called them and they told me I had to go and pick it up cuz the driver was not coming back here. Witch they never asked the driver cuz she just left my house. Then they hung up on me not just once but twice. Will never be going there again. read more

I ordered on line for home deliver I food came an hour later I can understand a drive getting lost. The chicken on stick was very hard and dry was in the fryer too long. My dinner calls for beef, onions and green peppers in a spicy sauces. The only thing spicy about the sauce was it had too many red pepper flaks in it not the right seasoning at all just a cheap way to spice something up, the beef was good but the onion was way over kill just way too much onion and not one slice of green pepper. Oh the egg roll were good. Don't think I will reorder from there again read more
