    Chicken lo mein
    Kobe E.

    I order my food from DoorDash. The service was good and I received a called from someone at the restaurant thanking me for choosing them and my order would be ready soon. I received my food within 20 min. The food was great. I order the chicken lo mein & shrimp egg rolls. I would recommend this restaurant and they have great customer service.

    The food is actually pretty good, and I'm fine with the limited English. But I'd never actually eat at the restaurant. It's pretty dirty and needs a ton of updating. They have the menu displayed with pictures, but you can't really tell what the pic is anymore because they're so faded.

    Counter order

    Momma always said, life is like strip-mall Chinese fast food, you never know what you're going to get. I'm talking about the order at the counter, Asian-American (emphasis on American) kind of place that all seem to be the same. Occasionally you find one that's pretty decent, but mostly not. Such is the case with China King next to WalMart south. Is this some sort of franchise? There's a China King in Marion with the same signage, but the clerk said they aren't related. I believe it, the one in Marion is much better. Both seem to be family run however. The first thing we noticed after we ordered our dine-in dinners was the cheapo plastic ware. I thought, I hope that means they put their money in the food instead of dinnerware. That was wishful thinking. The fried rice was probably the best part of the meal, it had good flavor and pieces of white meat chicken. I had the General Tso's Chicken which featured tough, grisly chicken with lots of breading in a sugary, slightly spicy sauce. The wife had the broccoli chicken. She said the veggies were good, but the chicken was mostly fatty pieces that looked like skin. She left most of it on her plate, I think it was chicken anyway. I really have to wonder where they source their meat. I don't even know where you find such poor cuts. Make the trip to Marion and pass this location by.

    Hot and sour soup :P

    See all

    Love the Mei Fun. The delivery was spot on and FAST! I wasn't super pleased with the egg rolls or ragoons, so that's the four star part.

    I've been coming to Panda Linn for quite a while, and it never disappoints. The food is…read moreconsistently fresh, flavorful, and truly authentic -- you can tell a lot of care goes into every dish. This isn't your standard "takeout Chinese" spot; the flavors are balanced, portions are generous, and the quality is excellent every single time. Panda Linn is easily one of the best authentic restaurants in Cedar Rapids, and it's the kind of place you look forward to going back to again and again as I have multiple times!

    On the way through town and through Google search and reviews went here. There are three tables…read moreinside. Let me first say they were very friendly and said hi right away and took our orders. Food very good. I would get this take out all the time if I lived there. The one downside as another reviewer said is not very clean. I got wet paper towels from restroom and wiped the table down as it had grease remnants from last person. The restroom needs a serious cleaning. There is a full size ladder in there, that is what the toilet paper sits on a rung. Which is what they have been stepping on with their shoes! The sink and toilet were not clean. There is also a storage tub on wheels in there with a giant pack of toilet paper sitting in it. Taking up room. Two wall soap dispensers, one must be broken and is black with dirt. No note on it so one tries that one first. It should be removed. The second one itself the outer soap dispenser is also black and very dirty. A little soap came out. The door is very hard to shut. The light switch is covered in built up dirty grime. Basic restaurant rules is if the bathroom is clean they keep the kitchen clean. I am hoping the owners read this and get the restroom cleaned and scrubbed. It certainly gave me pause to try the food but we had already ordered. Like I said the food was great, crab Rangoons were great. It's hard to say it was just this day because the build up in the restroom was more than a few months worth. Service and food were very good so that's the reason for four stars. Fried rice we thought was very good.

Tried the Shanghai Style Spring rolls for the first time. Couple of mini tomahawks showed up in that wax paper bag. I mean I'm over here looking at a maki roll with pieces of tuna so big it looks like they wrapped a roll of nickels in rice and nori. Their level of quality is has gotten so high I'm not sure they're capable of making a mistake let alone a bad dish. 03/08 Update New week. New order from the folks on the SW side. I've admittedly had this arrow in my quiver for a while but can't drop another review too soon and throw exclusive vibes. Don't get me wrong I have strong feelings but I am also low-key into Pho House. What can I say? I guess I'm a House guy. Anyhow, had an eye doctor appointment down the street (shoutout Dr. Fitz. SW side legend in the eye health space) so it was no brainer takeout time. Snuck the order in quick after battling through the little air puff machine. Food was ready in 20 minutes. Somehow you can get speed, quality, and value under one roof. It's immaculate. Since we're here it's probably the right time to discuss depth because this menu has a lot of it. In the interest of transparency I did have the Tuna Maki roll again. I have it every time. It's simple and it's beautiful. If you're the reading type and get deep enough into the menu you'll find the find Pad Thai. You might be thinking to yourself, "Are they really this agile?!" If you asked I think you already know the answer to the question. Order the Pad Thai. Trust me. And while you're at it grab a Shrimp Tempura roll, too. The eel sauce will have you in your feelings after one bite.

Not to mention that the interior atmosphere is ideal, with seating set up in smaller sections spread throughout the restaurant. I cannot recommend enough.
