23. Szechuan Chicken C

Outstanding!! Been coming here for years. Never had a bad meal here and everyone is super friendly

Hot and sour soup
Sharon A.

Super happy with my first try here. I had broccoli and rice with hot and sour soup. I noticed in some of the earlier comments that preference was for the China king on Republic so I came here. I've been coming to Springfield for years and have never found a reliable Chinese food place. This was easy, tasty and the price is right $8.11 for lunch. I did not order a drink. The chicken was cooked appropriately. The broccoli was nice and crunchy and there's even some random carrots that are also done to my liking. Which is a little bit on the crunchy side. The food temperature was hot and not dry. Plenty moist. They seem to be doing a no bus pick up. This is even here in the middle of the afternoon. I consider that a good sign.

Great variety of food. Lots of seating and parking. You can wander the buffet or watch their chef create your own.

Quick and always delicious. I'm predictable and I always get the sweet and sour chicken and it's wonderful!

Overall it was good. Not too greasy. Enjoyed the Egg foo young a lot. Fried apps were generic, not terrible.

Chicken tasted rather old, and the rice was very dry. Wasted my birthday dinner and an hour and a half drive on this place. :(

Cashew chicken was good, loved that they put the sauce on the side automatically. Rangoon was also in bag so it stayed crispy.

Service was good, but I wasn't crazy about the fried rice. Nice size portions though.

Awesome place for a quick lunch or dinner at very reasonable prices. Always busy and you see a lot of repeat customers which says it all.

Updating my review from last year: This review below was meant for the location at 1730 E Republic…read moreRd Ste A Springfield, MO 65804. My bad, I reviewed the wrong one, but I'm sure this location is good too! Here's my review from last year on the other location: I could tell by looking at the photos and reviews on Yelp that this place was going to be wonderful. Thankfully, when we finally gave it a shot, we were not disappointed. Talk about made fresh. Everything was so delicious and freshly prepared. Flavors were spot on. The service was fantastic. They always made sure that our drinks were filled and we had everything that we needed. My absolute favorite dish was the fried green beans with minced pork. Get it with extra minced pork and you'll love it. The steamed dumplings and pancake appetizer are also really good. Highly recommend! They also have clean restrooms with an extra large sink outside the restroom area so you can quickly wash your hands if you don't actually need to use the restroom. Pretty cool. We can't wait to go back for more!

Interestingly enough, I gave this place a shot because it was on Yelp's "Top 100" list for Chinese…read morefood in the US.... In Springfield of all places??? I was at once both intrigued and more than a little doubtful. However, I've now been here half a dozen times (every time I visit Springfield) and I can say that most of what I've had has been extremely authentic, especially the spicy stuff! Having lived in LA and also in Asia, I'm pretty strict about what I am willing to call authentic. Corner 21 isn't perfect and a few of the dishes fell flat, but you won't find anything better in town. I'm giving it full marks for being such a pleasant surprise in a seriously unexpected place. edit: Almost forgot to mention that the portions are quite big. Portion sizes were definitely more Springfield size than big city sizes! Recommend - Szechuan Spicy Chicken, Dry Fried Green Beans, Traditional Sweet and Sour Pork, Szechuan Boiling Fish Don't recommend - Yang Zhou Fried Rice (It tasted fine, but it's supposed to use bbq and not spam)
