My daughter and her 2 coworkers ordered from here today and they all got sick from the chicken. I will be reporting this to the health department on Monday. Do NOT eat here! read more

New owners. Wonton Soup is good. But small. Refreshed a little bit in interior. Saturday night, no people in the restaurant. read more

This is the best place for authentic food! We love their cashew chicken and my favorite is Singapore Noodles! Amazing dish!!! Thank you China Cafe!! read more

Everything was delicious. My wife ordered steamed chicken with mixed veggies (comes with brown sauce on side in a dish) & Hot and Sour Soup. We shared the crab ragoons (comes with 6 but we ate some before taking picture). I had the Dragon & Phoenix (general tso's chicken with shrimp and brown sauce). The service was great and food arrived quickly and hot. read more

Always great food whether or not you take to go or eat in we have never been disappointed with the quality of food here. My son loves the chicken fried rice. read more

We're there last night with party of 8. Shrimp overcooked, poor service, one meal came 10 minutes after others and no egg role or crab Rangoon with meal as in the past. Very disappointed. read more

This is one of my favorite Quad City Chinese Restaurants. Great crab ragoons and veggies. Always quick with the order as we as being professional and friendly. Highly recommend! read more

Your typical Chinese take out. Don't expect more. But I'd give it 3-stars when comparing to other Chinese take out places. The portions are huge. We ordered a beef and broccoli combination plate - $6.99 (came with half the amount of meat and broccoli, fried rice, and two crab rangoons, which we asked for instead of an eggroll), and kung pao chicken with peanuts - full order $8.29 (which came with double the amount of the main entree as the combination plate and fried rice on the side). The portions were huge (this is basically why I'm giving 3 stars), taste was normal and what we expected. However, I wish the kung pao chicken had more peanuts. I probably averaged one peanut every 4 bites, and I wish I had at least one peanut in each bite. We also ordered a large order of wonton egg drop soup. The 2 dishes plus the soup lasted us about two meals, with a few bites leftover. Definitely worth the price for an average Chinese take out. Unfortunately, they didn't give us a sweet and sour sauce for our crab rangoons. Not sure if it usually comes with it, but you should probably ask in case they forgot it. Would have been a lot better. The wonton egg drop soup was okay. The egg drop soup part tasted like normal egg drop soup, but the taste of the wonton's weren't so great. I guess I'm used to shrimp wontons and this one was beef or something. Anyway, I'd come again if I wanted Chinese take out for the huge portions. read more

I love the Sesame Chicken meal served here. The rice and egg roll are also delicious. Prices are reasonable.

Not a very clean place. Mice poop throughout the establishment on floors under air/heating vents, mold growing on ceiling and walls, dirty toilets, nasty bathroom. Nasty odor coming from drink orders. Not a very sanitary environment. Food was disgusting I got sick after eating. Health and safety hazard. Will never step foot in this place again. Please to the public for your health and safety don't eat here. The biggest mistake I made was not taking photographic evidence proving what I saw. It was gross. Never again. Health department should have shut this place down a long time ago. The deserve no stars read more

My friends and I decided to order chinese and relax/avoid the rain. I had the szechuan pork, which was flavorful and spicy (I got to choose the spice level) and the pork eggrolls were good. However, the chicken cashew and the beef with broccoli was just ok. Each of the dishes were put into different size containers/was not consistant. Ordering was a breeze online and the guy who was ay check out was very nice. read more

I didn't love their food, bland, and smelled odd. I had a bite and the Mongolian beef was fat no meat the rice was a black blah that had peas and corn, a friend recommended and I'll never let her suggest anything lol. Thank you but no! Also when trying to order on yelp there was very to no details so I called and the girl couldn't hear my order she tried; called me a second time to make sure where it was delivered to, and attentive but that's about it! Very disappointed! read more

Ordered take out online - super cheap for a family of four. I was late picking up our food, but the hostess assured us the food still would be hot. She was right! Their tofu is excellent: nice-sized chunks smothered in traditional Chinese sauce. Bright and crunchy vegetables. The vegetable fried rice had lots of veggies, not just peas and carrots. The General tso sauce had just the right amount of heat. Staff was super friendly! When we are near the north part of town, I would order again! read more

Used to order at least twice a month but now with the inedible food I will never order from them again. They forget items then over cook the food my poor son wasn't able to eat his food read more

Ordered 4 different dishes and 2 weren't edible. 2 appetizers were not notable either. Hard pass.

The most mediocre food I've ever had. Not bad, but certainly not good. I ordered the General Tso's, my husband got Orange Chicken, and our son had the Sweet and Sour Chicken. We ordered the crab rangoons, which were only cream cheese... nothing special. The fried dumplings AND sauce were so bland! Everything was really boring and had little taste. I wouldn't order here again. We were bummed. read more

I love this place. Have been coming here for probably over 5 years and one of my favorite places to get Chinese food from. Always fresh food and so quick! read more

This is the BEST Chinese delivery in town. Hands down. Had brilliant delivery service this evening. The food is consistently delicious. Having lived in the QC's for 3/4 of my life, I've tried all of their 'specialty' offerings and have never been disappointed. Even the delivery guy is very nice, extremely polite which is incredibly refreshing in this day & age! They have willingly catered to different requests from out-of-town guests that I've hosted without missing a beat and with my guests' compliments. If you want tasty and hot delivery then this is the place!!! However, take note: this is not a "fine" dining experience. I've read the reviews and while there are certainly better Chinese restaurants wherever you may live, like Minneapolis for example, remember this is a casual dining and delivery restaurant. That is all it wants to be and it is consistently done extremely well. So if you want the Buddha Bar then go back to NYC... read more

Dined in at China Cafe yesterday. It's a regular Chinese place, with a full menu. We got the sesame chicken and the general tso's chicken which were both really good. The dumplings and crab rangoons were very good as well. We were served very quickly and I was not disappointed. read more

Don't EVER order through Grub Hub. They claimed they delivered my food, but it never showed up. I called China Cafe but they said it is Grub Hub's problem not theirs. So no refund, no food. China Cafe...YOU SUCK!!!!! read more

I was really looking forward to Chinese tonight as a change in pace. Delivery was quick, prices kinda high. Food quality however, two pork fried rice and a beef: all three as if left out all day and just reheated. Egg rolls are tiny, chicken for sweet and sour was decent, sauce was awesome. To top it off the fortune cookie was stale. Will not be eating here ever again. read more

We used to eat there almost every weekend. The food there WAS GREAT! It was our "Go-To-Restaurant! Not anymore! The Mongolian Beef was grey, watery and tasted awful. The Lo Mein was equally disappointing and the egg rolls were inedible. (We were supposed to get 3 and only got 2 of them, just as well) Don't waste your money there! It used to be run by two older ladies. We haven't seen them there in a long time since the food quality started to dive. And they have the nerve to post signs that the prices of their food have increased. We'd be willing to pay the higher price for food like it used to be cooked and served. This one is definitely coming off of our recommended list!! read more

Perfect for my tastes. The first time I came here, I was so surprised by the lack of saltiness/grease in the dish that I couldn't finish it haha (they also have huge servings, yay for leftovers!). China Cafe definitely has less flavor than other restaurants, but it's because they proudly use 0 MSG (as proclaimed on their menu)! Hence why they seem to have little flavor. I loved it though because the taste of the ingredients on their own comes through, and you won't feel greasy afterward. Also, the egg foo young is huge and delicious, and comes with a generous side of rice! read more

We have been loyal customers of China Cafe since they opened years ago. We have, for the most part, been happy with the quality of the food and service. We have had dinner delivered to our home many times over the years. However, the last 3 times that we have purchased from them, the quality has gone way down hill. Tonight was the last straw. Along with having to pay the outrageous charges from Door Dash, which was 25 minutes late, and the driver was rude, cursing like a sailor, and complaining constantly about being over booked, The crab rangoon was totally over cooked almost burned, the egg rolls were literally dripping with grease and over cooked as well, and of course, since it was so late, the 3 orders of fried rice were cold. On top of that, there was only 1 container of sweet and sour sauce and NO soy sauce. When I called to complain about it I got the now typical response "you have to take it up with door dash" and was told I was "welcome" to not use their services again. Hmmm?? Don't expect I'll hear back from them, for sure I don't intend to frequent there in the future. read more

This is far from China anything. I don't know how they can have so many Asians working there and come out with the saddest fried rice I have ever eaten in my life. It looked like someone just murdered it with a bottle of soy sauce and it still came out tasting really bland. I mean, yeah portions are pretty big, but it's just big servings of the most UN-Asian food I've ever wasted money on. Normally I don't make a big deal of the bad cooking of others, but for the lost lambs who think THIS is Chinese food...the fortune cookie you got with your bill is probably the closest you'll ever get here. Awesome service though! read more

We ordered online, at 11:05 am, and our food did not get delivered until 1:10 pm. We called at 12:15 pm, and they said it was on the way.

I should have looked here first, but I took the recommendation from the front desk of my hotel. This was one of the worst Chinese meals I have ever had. Since I was in the middle of nowhere America I decided to order the simplest and most American Chinese food possible (Wonton Soup and Sweet/Sour Chicken). The wontons were undercooked. The dough tasted like a paste. The broth was fine. The chicken was so wet from condensation that it was difficult to eat. After a 14.5 hour drive, I just wanted a nice easy meal. That didn't happen. read more

Extremely reasonable prices for straightforward Chinese American take out, delivery, and ultra fast dine in. Have eaten from here more times than I can count, and although it's definitely not fine dining, it's hard to beat the value, especially if you take advantage of the Sunday paper coupon for buy one get one free. read more

We have been coming here for almost 8 years. The worst meal we have ever had. Something has changed. Everything was prepared differently and either over or undercooked. Egg rolls weren't the same either. So disappointed. read more

glad I did not read the reviews below prior to trying China cafe for lunch. evidently they are doing a much better job now, good for them. the parking spaces are many , but they are 15 inches too narrow. Three lunches here in five weeks and all went well, we ate in, and the floors, chairs, tables were all clean, and there were always a half dozen customers already there. the wait staff were prompt , courteous and friendly. we sent one entree back as it was room temp when served , they tossed it and made a whole new plate . ( did NOT just micro wave re heat it ) the lunch specials were priced correctly for the amount of food and the food quality. and they did not have the music blaring, that's a big plus. ( I hate when that happens) will continue to eat here read more

The people who work here are very kind, the food is normal Chinese food, nothing special but generous portions. The place is always clean. They also deliver further than I'd expect. read more

The portions are huge for takeout. I always get General Tso's Chicken when I get Chinese food and theirs is just right with the flavor and spice. The egg rolls were great as well! Great value and quick. I usually go in and order and am out within 10 minutes or less. Favorite Chinese place in the Quad Cities. read more

I had the beef and broccoli. The broccoli was good but there was something wrong with the beef! It was chewy and stretchy! The fried rice was dark brown and had one pea in it! The hot and sour soup was a warm jelly with toefoo and a few peas and a few pieces of corn! I also got an egg roll and I guess they don't give you sweet and sour with it! Definitely not what I expected! Never again! read more

This is my all time favorite Chinese place. I've ordered from here many times and it's always delicious and the people who deliver are always so nice. This is the only place I order from now read more

I've been a regular at the 53rd Street location since its opening, so this might be a bit biased. That said, I keep going back because the service is great and the food is delicious! I've gone with picky eaters and as long as you're clear about what you want the staff gladly accommodates special requests. read more

I've been craving chinese, chicken low mein specifically, something fierce and couldn't take it anymore. I'd heard good things about this place from someone at work so we decided to take a chance on it. We ordered steamed dumplings, chicken low mein and sweet sour chicken. The low mein was great. Not too greasy, full of vegetables and decent sized pieces of chicken. It hit the spot and took care of my craving. The steamed dumplings were disgusting and I was so disappointed. They're almost watery, if you can imagine that, and just a really bland taste of disappointment is left in your mouth. The boyfriend said his sweet and sour chicken was okay but I mean, how can you mess that up? The service was good. Both servers were really friendly and didn't mind answering my annoying questions. This place does okay in a pinch but I'd probably go else where next time. read more

Food is a little bit better than average. They have the BEST eggrolls in town! The chicken in my sweet and sour chicken tasted bland, no seasoning or anything. But the coating on the chicken was good. We also had the wonton egg drop soup, delicious. Nothing to say about service, we ordered on the app and picked it up. read more

Fried rice was undered seasoned and the chicken had an odd texture. Staff was very friendly and the rangoons were fast and tasty.

I was given the wrong item for carry out. I called and explained their mistake and expected them to make my original order. Living 10 miles away, at the least, I expected an apology. Nope. The manager said it was NoT their mistake and that I should take the wrong order back to them. She said their receptionist always repeats the order back so it was my fault. Whhhhhhaaat? She also wanted to charge me the difference (prob $1) between the meals. Will absolutely never return. Worst service ever read more

Probably the best Chinese food in the QCA but that isn't saying much. It really is hit or miss. I've had good quality meat one time and the next gotten fatty cheap meat. read more
