I went through the drive-thru and it was confusing, I didn't hear anyone on the speak so I just pulled forward. It did take about 20 minutes to get to the window, but this was lunch hour. The sweet lady working the window didn't seem to mind. Lunch pricing was great. Delicious Chinese food, and it came out quick. Love that they have a drive thru. read more

the young girl at the drive thru is very RUDE! you wait at the menu to order for like 10min no one says we will be right with you , bad service. read more

We went in and waited,and waited. 4 other nations were helped and served before they even took my our order. We then waited another 15 minutes for our soup. Attitude by servers.i Do NOT RECOMMEND THIS APRILS PLACE. WORSR SERVICE EVER. MY SOUP WAS FOR MEDIUM RECIVED CUP read more

My fiancé has picked up from here a few times now, and after trying it, we finally feel confident leaving a review! It first caught his attention because it was so busy (he says it always is), so he decided to try the drive-thru and they were quick! We live across town, and both times he's brought it home, the food has still been piping hot. Everything we've tried has been delicious (see pics!). The general chicken is spicy and delish. The sauce is great. The egg rolls and egg drop soup is perfect. Highly recommend! read more

Went yesterday on 2/24/2026. Egg drop soup was good. Lemon chicken was okay. HOWEVER, I went to the restroom and saw a little rat running around my appetite flew south! read more

Food just ain't great. Fast service. Older establishment. Wish it was better. The hot and sour soup had a melted plastic smell in it. Weird. Didn't eat it. Egg drop had no flavor. Just tasted like chicken broth. The quality of the meats was not good. read more

Good food, nice service. Inside could use some updating. Very popular with us locals, so that says a lot about its local reputation

Had to wait a little in drive thru but order was made fresh for me as soon as I got to wii Dow and ordered---sweet/sour pork not over fried, bite size pieces had tender meat inside, fried rice a little bland but adding soy sauce enhanced the flavor tremendously. Egg roll was freshly rolled it appeared, egg drop soup was tasty but no wontons nor fortune cookie provided. read more

I tried this place for the first time recently. I got my order to go to share with a girl friend. We got beef and broccoli, veggie fried rice, egg rolls and Rangoon's. Everything was good, your typical Chinese cuisine! The prices were great, I picked it up around dinner time and everything was under $25. Don't let the exterior deter you, it's worth a try. read more

After seeing this place for years we finally decided to stop in and give it a try. The interior is a little dated, but gave me the feeling that the food would be good, like a hole in the wall. My daughter accidentally spilled her soup and the waiter came over quickly and helped clean up. He even brought her another soup, no charge. The servings were so much that we had leftovers. The prices were great too! All in all it's a good place for the price. read more

Although lunchtime brings a packed house, IMO, the food was just ok. I ordered the Orange Chicken lunch special and will not get it again. The portion was plentiful but the taste was disappointing. There was lots of orange rind in the sauce and a good deal of a salty ingredient. It came with soup, rice, and a Crab Rangoon. The rangoons were delicious but the rice was super bland. Fortunately, their menu is large so options abound. read more

Okay I tried this place again. Same girl in the drive through that is usually rude but bareable. Still forgetting things and getting orders wrong :(. I give up no more aprils for me . read more

Food is subpar. Crab rangoons did not have crab and very little cream cheese. They were also kind of stale as if they were premade and left sitting out. The orange beef was over sauced and the meat was very fatty. Wonton soup was okay. Restaurant was lacking ambiance and felt pretty drab. This wouldn't have concerned me as much had the food been better. The only upside was my server. He was friendly and fast. Not likely I will return. thank you. read more

Nope. Unfortunately, this was not up my alley. Very sketchy location but that never turns me away. While I was ordering at the drive thru a homeless person was knocking at my window asking for $$. There was another one sleeping on the back porch. I think I ordered wrong but I had the Kung Pao chicken and did not like it at all. The rice has a weird flavor, the egg drop soup had barely no egg. I did not like it. The egg roll was okay. The lady at the window was nice. read more

They have a great selection here at April's. I had the General Two's dinner special with fried rice, egg roll and egg drop soup. My husband had the almond chicken, fried rice, egg roll and wonton soup. The soups and egg roll were delicious. Would return for those. The main dishes were okay. The rice didn't seem fried, it looked steamed. It had a some egg and veggies, but not the amount I think of when I think of fried rice. The General Tso's sauce was different than any I've tasted before. I'm used to it being a little stickier and packed with flavor. This wasn't unpleasant. I ate it. But it wasn't something I would order again. My husband liked the almond chicken. He said he would order the plate again. The service was a 4 out of 5. read more

They deliver! Woohoo! Good Chinese food that is tasty and priced well. I like the sesame chicken or the beef and broccoli. You can order ahead or order there. You can't go wrong with lunch or dinner. read more

Went through the drive thru and ordered the dinner specials. Came with rice, an egg roll, and a soup which was amazing. But the entree portion was similar to a lunch portion in a black plastic to go container. I would suggest if you are hungry to get the actual dinner portion. I've been for lunch in the restaurant and the portions were larger when you eat in. April's is a great place to go if you are in the area and need something quick. Will be back. read more

So delicious! Perfect for a Chinese food craving! So many people have told me to try and I'm so happy I did! 10/10 would recommend

I come from a big back city called Corpus Christi, Hunan Express BEATS every Asian restaurant with the biggest styrofoam plates and your lomeim is not extra and your meat entree is not small. But I will say this food taste almost similar to it but it's expensive haha read more

I have to eat before 5pm and could not decide what to eat. It was 3:30pm and stopped at April's Chinese restaurant. I ordered the lemon chicken, fried rice, egg roll and egg drop soup. All this was $8.39. The chicken almost melt in my mouth or I was plain hungry. Lol I hope that the chicken wasn't frozen because it was delicious. This was a pick-up at the window and service was excellent. read more

Customer service was amazing from beginning to end !! Food came out hot and fresh and also tasted amazing!! The general Tso is a 10/10. Whole store was chill and very friendly!! read more

"Never judge a book by its cover, the thing that counts is what's inside. Never judge a lady by her lover, it isn't a reliably guide." Stephen Sondheim may have written those lyrics for his musical, Follies; however I feel the sentiment also works for April's Chinese Restaurant. Does it look like much? Nope! But what it is is fast, cheap, and reliable Chinese food that not only delivers but also has a drive-thru. Having been working and living in Southtown for quite some time now, I find myself relying on April's when I need a quick and cheap lunch run. My favorite item is the Sauteed String Beans (L. 44 on lunch menu). I like to order them extra spicy; it doesn't come out unbearable but it adds a nice extra layer of flavor. Lunch specials come with choice of soup, rice, and then egg roll or crab rangoon and comes in at under $7. I always leave quite satiated but never over stuffed. Dining in is pretty straight-froward. Come in and find a table and a server takes care of you. We have always had good experiences w/ servers and when they got a side item wrong they immediately rectified the issue. Once you've finished your meal just make your way to the register and you can pay and head on your way. So there you have it-need a no frills and consistent lunch that's light on your waistline and wallet? Look no further than April's to meet that need. April, get those chopsticks ready-I'll be on my way again soon. read more

April's Chinese - Beef Lo mein with friend rice. - Chinese Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

First off, don't let the elitist comments about the sketchy location determine whether or not you should visit. The restaurant is definitely small and not the fanciest, but that isn't a bad thing. The food was hot and served really quickly. Plus, the waiter who took our order was super nice. We started off with the appetizer sampler which had fried chicken, shrimp, eggrolls, rangoons, and spare ribs. It was pretty decent! The best thing on the plate was the eggrolls. For our entrees, I got the broccoli beef with steamed rice, and my husband got the orange chicken. The orange chicken was actually really good! It was a little spicy and the chicken was juicy. The broccoli beef was solid, and the veggies tasted fresh. Overall, it's a solid go to spot if you want casual takeout. read more

The food is ok. I prefer their Weikei location, I learned they are the same owners. The inside of this restaurant does not look well cleaned/organized. I ordered chicken and lo Mei and ate maybe 1/4 of the plate. There were only 2 servers for about 10 tables and 1 of the servers was also managing the cash register. I waited for a refill for about ten minutes and had to remind the server that he took my cup. They definitely need more staff. I don't think I'd come back to dine in but maybe for takeout. It was really packed so perhaps I just need to try something else on the menu read more

Solid cheap Chinese food spot can't go wrong with some good cheap Chinese. This is your spot if you want something quick and easy.

The tea was delicious I'm super picky. If you have tried China rose on military Aprils is not as flavorful. Over all I'd give the combination rice a 7/10. I would come back to try again. If you have a picky spouse with no onion in Rangoon this is your to go place. Rangoons were crispy golden brown and super fresh it makes my mouth waterService and sever were great. If you're disgusted by looks maybe you should give it a try first. read more

Just came from April's for lunch and it was awful. Found hair in the rice and they begrudgingly replaced. Initially, they just took off the hair. But when we said something then they replaced the food. Waiter had the biggest attitude I've seen. Basically throwing our plates on the table. Rolling his eyes when we were ordering and asking for drink refills. The good thing is I have one less decision to make on where to eat for lunch because I'm never going back. read more

The food was amazing. Very flavorful, hot, and affordable. The only reason I'm giving 4/5 stars rather than 5/5 stars is because the restaurant itself and quite a few of the tables were a bit dirty and lazily wiped down with a reusable rag. Service was typical, nothing bad, nothing stellar. read more

This place was on my radar as it always appears to be so busy. It was the first time I tried this place. And likely the last. My first mistake was to order on the inside. I always judge a place by its windows and how well the place is maintained. Short answer. It isn't. I honestly don't believe SA health department has ever made a stop at this place (if such a place exists). But again it is San Antonio. This city is not exactly known for its high standards (honestly, it's just Mexico in Texas). The copious number of flies inside gave the place an authentic Chinese street food feel. I promised to give the food a try and not be too much of a brat. I prayed. And then tasted the orange chicken that lacked any hint of flavor and the fried rice that came with said orange chicken was also void of even a grain of salt. Even some msg would have been appreciated at this point. However, the egg drop soup and egg rolls were, although small, surprisingly tasty. But honestly, I don't think I can get beyond flies. I won't return. read more

Ordered the triple delight. Food had zero taste. Egg roll was the only food that was relatively decent.

Honestly I wasn't expecting much of this place but it was really good, especially for $7 a plate on their lunch specials. I had the orange chicken, I didn't try the general tso but the lo mein was really good. And the lunch special came with side of rice, a soup, and with an egg roll or a crab rangoon. We call to order and in 15 minutes our food was ready. I'll be back for sure for lunch. read more
