I had a craving for some Chinese food, and discovered this place. It is small inside, and most people are just getting food to-go. The woman at the counter who helped me was super nice. I ordered the General Tso's chicken. I thought my portion was on par with other restaurants like this, and I had plenty of leftovers to make another meal out of it. I thought the sauce on the chicken was good, but not as spicy as I'd like. The fried rice that came with it was good as well. Overall, I'd say this is a better than average Chinese takeout. read more

Chicken was a little overcooked but great value, taste, service, and atmosphere. Would recommend and go back. It's nice that it's not buffet. read more

We got china house for the first time on Christmas Day. It was really good and they were very easy to order from over the phone. Will definitely be our tradition going forward read more

I love the food here. It is fresh and delicious. I especially love their Egg Foo Young. I called my order in and asked if they would bring it to my car and they were happy to. My order was ready when I arrived and was hot and well packaged to transport. read more

The rice tasted off and the chicken had a fatty texture and taste though the fried wontons were very good in the dumplings would come again

Best Chinese food in Lawrence. Geard for Take out although there are a few booths inside Great General TSO and crab Rangoons. read more

This is the best Chinese-American takeout in the kc area! The value is fantastic, the portions are generous, and the food is always ready quickly. My husband has loved this place since he was young, and he introduced me to it. My go-to order is the chicken and broccoli, while his is the general tso's chicken. I like that they make the chicken and broccoli with brown sauce, instead of the white sauce that some other places make. Every lunch combo comes with a side of fried rice, as well as an egg roll or two crab rangoons. At $8, you can't beat the price! We have come here several times for takeout, and will definitely be back. read more

went there with a new friend and her son and they both had recommended it. The son, 10 years old, loves the place . i liked the food and the multitude of choices. the strip mall parking was plentiful and the place was clean and booths were plentiful. i bet I saw 15 carry outs while we made our choices and ordered and ate. prices were right and the staff was wonderful. read more

I previously lived in Lawrence (roughly 8 years ago) & this was my favorite Chinese place in all of Lawrence. Mostly because it was super tasty but also because they served large portions at a cheap price. Yummy & affordable, a broke college students dream. While visiting Lawrence this weekend, we decided to be lazy on Sunday night & order chinese. I was super excited to see that China House was still operating. But even more excited when we got our food & I discovered it tasted the exact same as it did 8 years ago. Hallelujah! The shop itself is unassuming. It's just your typical Chinese restaurant inside a strip mall. It's definitely not a place you go for a fancy dinner. But, if you're looking for a great tasting, affordable meal with a generous portion. This place is it! read more

My husband had the pepper chicken I tried it and it was not good the chicken was like leather. So please watch what you eat here. read more

Locals know this is the best Chinese spot in town. Perfect combination of portion size to tastiness.

Ordered delivery entrees were gross and the Moo Shu special was only cabbage and the House special the only vegetable was broccoli that was I trimmed. End of eating here. read more

No east coast egg rolls here.... For Kansas chinese take out- the service is timely! Standard chinese food on the menu.... Nothing to wow me thus far. read more

Worst Chinese food ever! Basically inedible All the chicken is old and questionable and seriously wasn't sure if it was even food safe Go absolutely anywhere else, don't waste your money on this trash read more

I like it, I've had very good food from this place. Delivery is quick and easy. The ambiance isn't that great but you can pick it up or get delivery; the restaurant itself is sort of just plastic booths and nothing special to hang out at. read more

Stopped in on New Years Day and grabbed some General Tso's chicken for the road, back to Colorado Springs. Happy to find them open today, an alternative to a burger and fries. Made very quickly and fresh, upon ordering. Busy place today, actually...always a good sign! Very good and enjoyed a hot meal on the road. Thank you! read more

China House - Chinese Near Me - Lawrence, Kansas

Some of the best Chinese food we have had anywhere in the country. Location is nothing to look at, but we don't go to a restaurant for a "look". Food quality is impeccable! Service is a bit slow, but I think that is due to the language barrier - they speak little English which makes it all the more enjoyable & authentic. Everything is made to order!! So what if you have to get your own utensils and condiments - just take-out and you'll be fine little snowflakes! Do yourself a favor and patronize this establishment - just keep an open mind! read more

The best fried rice in town and the most stuffed crab ragoons although they have been a little greasy lately so I had to take off a star as much as I didn't want to lol. read more

We were on our way home from a Colorado getaway and decided to stop in Lawrence, KS to pick up some Chinese food to go- China House did not disappoint. I really wish we had a Chinese takeout like this place where we live because I would probably go there every week or every other day. It was THAT good. I was very impressed with how authentic the takeout food tasted and just how fresh it was. We ordered bbq boneless ribs which had a really good taste but was just slightly salty for my liking but still really good, general tso chicken which was probably one of the best I've ever had, orange chicken which was good, and egg rolls which tasted handmade due to the bamboo veggies and how fresh it tasted. Their fried rice was also authentic and not that yellow, fake stuff that some Chinese places offer. Whenever we take more road trips west, I will definitely be back to China House for more takeout! I highly recommend!! read more

All the dishes I have tried so far have been very good the shrimp egg foo young the pork egg rolls the shrimp egg rolls the steamed dumplings the chicken chop suey read more

Best take out Chinese in town! We love the orange chicken and generals chicken extra spicy! Their crab rangoon is amazing too!

I can't believe I haven't written a review of this place before now. They are the best hole-in-the-wall Chinese restaurant in town. Some items I order are General Tso's tofu. Singapore noodle. And for the first time today. tried Hunan shrimp with lo mein noodles. Oh, and love the egg, drop soup, hot and sour soup, steamed dumplings, and crab Rangoon. Great food, reasonable prices, and super fast friendly service. read more

Hole in the wall restaurant. We hesitated going in after anticipating a nice looking restaurant with the average of a four-star review. We decided to go in because we were hungry on a Sunday night. It has six booths..... Reminded me of a diner type place ......it was get your own plates get your own forks get your own napkins etc. all of supplies were piled in a corner and in one of the booths. Ordered crab Rangoon Mushu pork and beef with veggies. Crab Rangoon was a little greasy. Mushu pork was bland. Beef dish was just OK. Overall you were not impressed read more

Love this place - food is always the same and they are fast!! Good price and they are very friendly!!

The food was okay not great. It was kind of greasy. I would go back one more time possibly read more

Fast, Good, the wings are my favorite! Service is great, everyone is nice. Fried rice is amazing .... Lots of food for your money!

OK do the math. College town + Tons of students = Tons of fast food places. If I recall, Lawrence used to be in the Guiness Book for the most fast food places per capita, but I digress. So my point??? China House is the best fast food place for Americanized Chinese food I have found in Lawrence or Kansas City. They make everything fresh, and it tastes that way. Most places in town cater to the student masses that want quantity and not quality, so I was happy to find this place. It was nice to finally sample dishes that actually taste different from one another when you try something new, unlike some of the other Chinese restaurants in Lawrence. Can't go wrong with China House! read more

I have been eating at this place a lot lately. In the past I would go to Jade Garden for my "go to" Chinese takeout but I think I like this place better for some things. The lunch special is very reasonably priced and has lots of options. We have tried 5 or 6 things on the menu and they have all been great. I love the soup and the egg rolls which is a great plus. They are fast and the haven't had any issues with service. Highly recommend. read more

Carry out order. People are friendly (appears family run) and the food was fabulous. Probably my favorite in Lawrence. Parking is convenient and order was ready when indicated. Perfectly seasoned broccoli and pea pods with excellent sauce. Not too salty and the rice was perfectly steamed. The steamed dumplings are the bomb. Explode with flavor in your mouth. My new go to. read more

Truly excellent meal last night! Appetizers and entrées were all cooked to perfection. Crab rangoons, egg rolls, pad thai, honey chicken, sweet and sour chicken. Truly makes a difference when you can tell your food was prepared by a true master. Thank you!! read more

My favorite Chinese food ever!! Food I always order: wonton soup, pork fried rice, and crab rangoons. I usually choose between the orange chicken, shrimp in garlic sauce, or the general tso. It's difficult though because everything is so good. Portion size is huge. I always have leftovers which is great because the food is just as delicious the next day too. I love all the family that works there. They are friendly and accommodating to my sometimes needy behavior haha. read more

I like that they stay open late on Sunday. 10pm Most places were closed when we got in and it was not even late. My husband got the shrimp egg foo young. He was hoping for more flavor than he got. read more

China House - General Tso Chicken - Chinese Near Me - Lawrence, Kansas

DO NOT GO TO THIS RESTAURANT. The service here is so poor it can not compensate for the food. Their process for taking orders is rife with errors, and their promised time for pick up has now failed repeatedly. When I asked to speak to a manager a young girl came to the register and actually yelled at me and told me to go to another restaurant after I calmly questioned the delay. Great advice, manager. I'll be sure to follow it. read more

Terrible! This is maybe the worse Chinese restaurant I've ever eaten at. The food was bad and the inside is dirty and cheap. My daughter can't typically get enough crab rangoons and she barely ate one here. The food was served in Togo containers with cheap, crappy plastic silverware and styrofoam plates. I'm not a snob but if I yelp Chinese and this is the highest rated restaurant around I better not be in a town this size. DO NOT GO HERE read more

Absolutely a great restaurant in the quaint little town of Lawrence, the prices are cheap and the food is plentiful! I love the Orange chicken and I wish they'd have something similar in Dallas! Would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a cheap eat and great tasting dinner! A+ read more

We couldn't wait to try this place after reading the reviews. I wish we would of left it at just reading because our food experience was not that great. We ordered a bunch of the crab rangoons. They had good flavor when they didn't drip in grease. The grease killed it for us. The shrimp fried rice was very cheaply made and nothing special. My girlfriend did not enjoy the sesame chicken. She said it didn't taste like chicken. The egg drop soup on the other hand was amazing. Great flavor. I would almost go back just for it. Well probably not because we drove 25 min to go there. Overall I would recommend trying another establishment. read more
