HOT GIRLS DINE AT CHINA BISTRO Loveee this place. Classic, comforting, Chinese takeout! Their orange chicken, crab rangoon, and Singapore noodles truly heal my soul. Shout out Bennet who was SO amazing when I came in to pickup my food! I added 2 boba smoothies on last minute and she was so accommodating. So personable, and honestly brightened my day in a way I didn't expect for a quick takeout pickup!! What more can I say?! Classic, quick, affordable, and hot. Loves it.

Sweet and sour chicken!

China Bistro is our go-to place when we're looking for authentic and tasty Chinese food. The prices are a bit high, but we almost always have enough to feed the family and have leftovers for the next day. Sometimes, they have shorted us on the sweet and sour sauce for the chicken order, but besides that, we always enjoy our meal. If you order from them, be sure to ask if you've hit the price point to add a free item to your order. We always call ahead, especially now that their dining area is still closed. Orders that have been decently large have gotten to us in a timely manner and parking is easy, as it's in a strip mall. China Bistro is one of the best Chinese places in the area. I recommend checking it out when you're in the area!

I have been ordering smoothies from here ever since I was a little kid. They continue to be my favorite & are always so kind to me.

Really good but didn't like that you couldn't sub fried rice - they force you to purchase an entire side. Otherwise it was good

Haven't eaten here for a while but the soups and Kung pao beef were excellent. Maybe a new cook?…read more We'll de ordering here more often. Give it a try.

Placed an order online and will say absolutely disappointed with my order and service…read more Upon arrival the wait was short. I paid automatically with a credit card. Then my food is brought out but before I can leave I'm told that they made a mistake on line with pricing and I owe them $0.75 more which I did not care and gave them $.08 but I wonder if they owed me the $.75 if they would be so willing to give it back to me. Then the owner comes out and starts taking my food out. If you place an order $50 or more you get an appetizer for free. our previous visit they forgot it and we were told the next time when we place an order to remind them and they will give us one. So since this order was over $50, I got one appetizer for free plus the appetizer that they forgot about last time. The owner comes out and starts digging out the additional appetizer. You only get one you only get one. Which I nicely explained to her that they owed us two. Very unpleasant woman. But the disappointment comes when I get home and opened all of the containers. Mongolian beef was horrible. It's called Mongolian beef because it's supposed to have beef . The dish is 90% onion couple noodles throw in and a little bit of beef ....just horrible. Same thing with other two meals where you had majority of vegetables and no meats or shrimp. Very disappointed with the order. They are becoming hidden and miss restaurant. You never know if you're gonna get a good order or a crappy order like we got today.

Basic looking Chinese restaurant in Algonquin. China Dragon 1 is pretty sketchy even for strip mall…read morestatus to be honest. It has a minimal dining area with only a few tables. Cluttered with boxes of supplies and junk. The food is really cheap at least. A restaurant that is bare bones. It's one of those strip mall Chinese restaurants that is similar to all the others. This one makes the others look fantastic though. Had a part of the dining area closed off. There were only a few available tables. It's about $8 for an entree. The one here for vegetarians is the Tofu Vegetables. Sounds generic. This has mushrooms and pea pods. A lot more to get if wanting something more authentic. There's pad Thai as well as many others. For sure it actually is one of the best Asian restaurants around here. It's located in the plaza with the post office. They're closed Tuesdays.

We have been big supporters of China dragon for about 8 years now through Covid and all - telling…read moreeveryone we know and the Mchenry food critic site that they are the best bringing in multiple additional customers...Tonight we dropped $130 on food. We got the order delivered by uber because that was the only option for delivery China dragon had. Our order was missing items I called the restaurant asking if it was there and got left behind. I had to repeat what I had in front of me as food twice and then was cut off and told it's An uber issue and I have to deal with them! I WAS going to ask for them to make the items missing and I would have picked it up - instead after that statement I was hung up on. We will no longer be ordering from China dragon. Horrible customer service is not ok.

Went on a Sunday night. I can tell that this place is popular for carry out, because that had most…read moreactivity here. My friend and I enjoyed a sit down meal, with our own dedicated server, since no other folks except us were in the dining room. I enjoyed a cashew chicken, served family style, very very generous portion for price. My friend enjoyed the duck, also served family style. White rice is free with the meal, fried rice is an. extra charge as its own dish. The hot tea at the table was pretty weak tasting, but the tasty food, interesting decor, and the friendly server was quite nice to have. Note: instead of just handing us boxes to box up our leftovers, our server actually put our plates on a tray at a nearby table and boxed up our food for us. A very nice touch so we didn't have to worry about possibly messing up our hands and our outfits managing all of that. I would definitely go back again: the service and the food were memorable.

Don't know why I would just drive by Lily Garden without even considering it. I tried it once…read more Since then, the craving kicks in, we come back. It is decent. I did not realize that they run a sit down restaurant, well decorated at that. I'm always greeted with a courtious smile and light conversation. Generous quantities, tasty food. Everything is fresh and hot. Their wonton and hot and sour soups are better than most of the other nearby take out places. I like that they follow your special instructions when placing an online order..some places do not. I've noticed that they tend to be on the lightly seasoned side, so I always request fried rice extra spicy and dark. This means they will add a little more soy sauce and very mild spice. Also, they do make smoothies guys. An important note, when you order, you pay at pickup, not online. All I want, some consistency in life. They are consistent. That is why carry out from Lily Garden.
