I had an overnight work trip to Peoria and after a long day of driving from Detroit the last thing I wanted to do was to find a restaurant and dine in. DoorDash came to the rescue and Chinatown Kitchen came up highly recommended. I was thinking of some Vietnamese food as pho is my favorite but they closed early. I'm glad because Chinatown Kitchen was really good. First let me just say there will be enough food to feed 3 people or two hungry people. I got the happy family with chicken, shrimp, imitation crab, pork, and beef. It was loaded with tons of vegetables and a mild but flavorful brown sauce. It came with a huge side of fried rice. The fried rice had peas, diced carrots, and onion in there which I always appreciate instead of just plain rice. I also tried the à la carte pork egg roll (hot, crispy, and excellent). I did my best but at the end could only make a dent in a third of it. Which means one thing: leftovers for breakfast...lol read more

Review Visit: March 17th, 2015 What's that? Eating Chinese on St. Patty's Day? Yup! My friend and I wanted to get authentic Irish food on St. Patty's Day, but every place was packed and we wanted food ASAP. So we settled on a nearby Chinese restaurant that we both had never tried. All these reviews/descriptions are going to sound the same. Friendly staff, small restaurant, limited seating, good food. That pretty much sums up Chinatown Kitchen. Would love to had tried it while hammered. Maybe another St. Patty's Day! read more

Chinatown Kitchen - Chinese Near Me - Peoria, Illinois

I walked in to order curry chicken. I asked for the curry to be spicy. I also ordered the small wonton soup. The food was adequate but I wouldn't say it was good. The wonton soup was OK. The main flavor was provided by salt accompanied by a weak chicken broth. The wontons were pretty much the same The curry was bland with no spice at all. It was disappointing but if you want bland quick chineese food this is your place. At least the prices are reasonable. read more

Everything was great and always have been great customer service my order is always right close to my home even my kids love it on the regular definitely would recommend read more

William and Anne have returned! Last night's fresh meal was superb with Singapore noodles, Moo Goo Gai Pan, and green beans and chicken. A family atmosphere with fresh food made well. Their vast menu offers more to desire and we can't wait to return. read more

Is this the best Chinese food? No. It's your good cheap Chinese dive and it's super clean and people are pretty nice. They have a large menu, affordable prices, good online coupons for freebies and they pack the food up to go really nice is sealed plastic containers. The egg rolls are delicious, crab rangoons lacking and the general TSO chicken I ordered this visit was prepared decent. Fried rice was delicious and I ordered the sauce light and appreciate they respect special requests. Will order again. Huge props to them for their covid precautions... probably the best I've seen in Peoria with contactless ordering! read more

Chinatown Kitchen - General TSO chicken dinner combo - Chinese Near Me - Peoria, Illinois

the food is delicious i like getting the shrimp mix vegetables with white rice and my kids love the chicken broccoli with white rice

Hands down, Chinatown is the best Chinese Restaurant in Peoria!! They have all the favorites including Chicken wings! You'd be surprised by the number of Chinese Restaurants, between Peoria and Bloomington, that don't offer Chicken Wings. This place reminds me of the Chinese Restaurants back home in New York. So good!!!!! read more

Called and asked if they deliver and they said no. Call me right back and asked if I was using cash. When I told them I were, they let me order. The food came within a half hour of me calling and was nice and hot. Everything was well cooked and delicious. Appreciate you Chinatown Kitchen and will be ordering from you again real soon. (And I had the pleasure of eating, Crab Meat Rangoon's / Shrimp Egg Rolls / Egg Drop Soup / and Shrimp Fried Rice). All off the chain read more

Always have had good food from here for lunch. Eat here frequently and it is quick and the food is always hot when I pick it up. Crab Rangoon is not my favorite from here but that is just personal preference. Will come here again. read more

Pretty good food! They listen to special requests which is nice. I asked for no veggies in the Lo Mein and they listened which is huge for me. - They usually get it done pretty fast too. - No complaints here! read more

By far, the best Chinese food in Peoria. The food is consistently delicious and I am never disappointed when I order from here! This is a weekly order for my son and I. I don't live close to the resturant and have gladly driven a good distance, passing a couple of other spots, just to get to them. As of the date of this post, I am happy to say that they are now available on DoorDash. read more

My go-to Chinese restaurant in Peoria for fast cheap Chinese food. Very good curry and general's chicken. Good portions

This is by far the best place for Chinese food in the Peoria area. I've tried all of them and this place does a lot of things right. General Tso's Chicken is my go to order. I order it extra spicy and it's consistently amazing. I like to dip my pork egg roll in the General Tso's sauce. So good. My wife has ordered Mongolian and Szechuan Beef and both were delicious. Their lo mein is also delicious. Only thing is that they aren't open on Sundays! Their lunch/dinner specials give you a LOT of food so you will not walk away hungry. Go there now. You'll be glad you did. read more

Excellent egg rolls! Great tasty selection and never dissatisfied. Garlic Chicken and orange chicken are always great

Kinda pricey for mediocre food. I didnt get any napkins or utensils with my order, the wonton soup tasted fishy and they have the cheap triangle shaped crab rangoons. read more

I don't get chinese food alots its not really my favorite but I enjoyed the beef lo mein here alot! Although there wasn't alot of beef meat in here it was still pretty good. They're crab rangoon is good too. Wasn't a fan of the fried rice or egg drop soup. The soup was good until it had a weird lemon after taste. But everything was good and the cashier lady was nice. read more

I first experienced Chinatown back around '07, in the midst of a watching session for the show Heroes. I was still living in Ptown, and every Monday, a few friends and I would pick up some takeout and go geek out in front of our buddy Sven's new HDtv. Ah, to take back the days of General Tso's chicken and Sylar, together again. Chinatown is a pretty standard "Chinese" takeout -type place, but for some reason, the flavors here come alive! Their specials are where it's at. And you're not gonna pay a lot for this eggroll either. I highly recommend any of their spicy dishes, such as the garlic chicken, anything general tso's, or the broccoli and beef. They're even happy to substitute wontons for the aforementioned eggroll, thereby completing my perfect takeout meal. There are a few tables inside where you can dine inexpensively, but I recommend taking out some lunch or dinner, and planting yourself in your favorite park or sitcom situation and enjoying the bounty that awaits. read more

For a Chinese take out/delivery place, this tops the list in Peoria! Nothing entirely outstanding, just very good Chinese take out. I went here while in college and moved to Naperville upon graduation (which has excellent food choices all around, btw). Anyway, I loved this place in college. My friend and I would get an orange chicken dinner (~$10) and split it - plenty of food. Now that I'm in Peoria again and thinking about it....I'm definitely getting some orange chicken tonight! read more

Great service, They deliver lickity split, had the basics which were tasty (Mei fun soup, egg roll, combo lo~mein) I also tried the fried donuts which were pretty good, the portions were plentiful, enough for left overs the next day, would definitely order from here again. read more

Rapid delivery, great price, and AMAZING food. The service is fantastic and they actually messed up part of our order, but the driver returned with the missing piece and was extremely apologetic. I highly recommend this place for carry out and delivery of your favorite Chinese dishes!! read more

That sauce! I LOVE the sauce on the Mongolian chicken...so much! Someday I will try something else but when I'm craving Chinese, I have to have their Mongolian chicken. SO good! I gave them 5 stars without trying other dishes because my coworkers rave on and on about other dishes too. read more

Great inexpensive food. Not gonna say cheap because it definitely isn't cheap food...it's very good and service is always nice and friendly. My go-to place got Chinese food! read more

Typical Chinese takeout place. The General Tso's chicken was yummy. Nothing special, but not bad. read more

Chinatown Kitchen - two men working in the kitchen - Chinese Near Me - Peoria, Illinois

Closest I have found in Peoria area to Cantonese Chinese food. Very good.

Food was disappointing. We're at OSF and did carry out based on Yelp reviews, the hospital food would have been a better choice. The food was barely edible. I love Asian food but this needs help. We ordered a spicy pepper chicken which was very greasy and lacked flavor. The peppers and onions were barely cooked and the chicken was plain. The dish overall was a favor let down. Accompanying that was their fried rice. The veggies in the rice were raw and the rice was greasy compared to normal fried rice. The chicken rice soup was very blah. And the crab Rangoon (couldn't taste the crab) was so tough you could barely eat it. We won't go back we threw out the majority of our food, what a waste. Next time we will ask the nurses for their favorites. read more

I accept this is the best Chinese nourishment in the Peoria region! I completely love their nutty spread chicken! I profoundly suggest it! They generally get the request right and the quality is constantly great! read more

I originally chose Chinatown kitchen because I could choose delivery if I wanted to. I found that very appealing. Also I decided to try shrimp with lobster sauce for the first time. That was probably one of the most delicious meals that I have had in a long time. I tried shrimp with lobster sauce from Ming's restaurant, but I found disappointment. I have also tried the baby fried shrimp with shrimp fried rice from Chinatown. It was also delicious. I would also recommend the crab rangoon and the chicken teriyaki sticks. The only thing that I wish was better was the delivery time, you have to spend a $20 minimum for delivery plus a delivery fee. I find myself normally waiting around 45 minutes for them to arrive. They have never arrived past their estimated delivery time. I still give Chinatown kitchen five stars because all in all everything was to my satisfaction. read more

Ordered my food at 9pm and they never showed up with the food they close at 10 it's like they said screw it we're closing and I still haven't got my refund yet read more

Dang yo. This place be dangerous! The food is good. AND these guys deliver! Date night? Pay a babysitter? No. Why would I do that when I can get this great food delivered to my home where I can watch Dateline and chow down in my underwear?! This is big city convenience and great food right here in Peoria. Top 3 Americanized-Chinese food places in Peoria. Must try! read more

Very good egg rolls! Large menu to choose from. Fast delivery. One of the Best in Peoria.

Chinatown Kitchen is fast, has amazing online coupons, and they make some great crab rangoon and chicken on a stick. Their parking lot is one-way so make sure you turn in and go out at the right entrance. Like your typical Chinese carry-out, they have an extensive menu of what you will normally find at all other restaurants. Their food is okay. Kung Pao chicken could have been spicier and lacked in the vegetable department, both in its creativity and choice of vegetables. Hot and Sour Soup was average. A nice place to order from as part of your rotation of Peoria Chinese carry-outs. Just do not expect anything too amazing. read more

I have been meaning to write this review for a while now, so it's past due. Chinatown Kitchen is our go to Chinese take out resturant. The food is always good, and consistantly the same. Service is fast and friendly, I would recommend it to anyone! read more

Haven't eaten here in awhile but it's my wife and I only place that we order fast food Chinese. Service is always good as well as the food!

I actually owe fellow Yelpers for getting me to try this one. My girlfriend and I both love Chinese food, but such a huge percentage of the Chinese restaurants here are buffets which I don't enjoy near as much as a good Chinese carryout spot. This past week, we decided to give a new place a shot and Chinatown Kitchen came up as the highest rated on UrbanSpoon, and highly rated here as well even though it only has a few reviews. I've eaten there three times since. Yes...that means I've eaten there four times in a week. I hadn't had Chinese food this good in years. The first time, I tried the house special lo mein, and my girlfriend had the General Tso's chicken. The lo mein was absolutely delicious, and for under $10 I had enough to eat for two days. My girlfriend also said the General Tso's was excellent. Since then I've also tried their Orange Beef, which was good but not great, and their Peanut Butter Chicken, which was good enough that I actually drove by there around lunch time on Thanksgiving, hoping and praying that they were open because I was craving the hell out of that chicken. Maybe I should be reserving my enthusiasm until I've been there a few more times, but these first handful of visits have been positive all the way around. Wonderful food, and a short wait for the food. There's not even a tiny chance that I'll be eating Chinese food anywhere else in Peoria from now on. read more

Great place! Best Chinese takeaway in Peoria. I've eaten here for years and have never been disappointed. Food tastes great and you get a lot for the price! The shop doesn't look like much, just a wee space in a strip mall on Knoxville Ave. Don't make the mistake of judging it by it's size. The food is great!! I am particularly fond of the curry chicken and the Mongolian beef but anything you get from here will be great. Order from here. You won't regret it!! read more

Not a bad little place. The food is good and the price is not too bad. I like that they recognize my telephone number and remember my latest orders because, like most, I'm a creature of habit and my order rarely changes much. read more

Horrible my chicken wings were burned. The rice was in clumps and was also cooked too long and the vegetables were raw. When I called the lady told me to come back which I didn't bother since I live too far away. What little I salvaged i fed to the dog. What a waste of money and gas!! read more

I asked them to make me some Generals Chicken with all white meat. They wouldn't do a lunch special size, just the large, but it was so worth it. I thought I would just eat some and save the rest for later, be it was so good, I just kept eating! I still had enough for another delicious meal! read more
