    A tried and true favorite that I've been coming back to for years with my friends. Popular for a very good reason. Whenever friends visit from out of town this is always one of my go to recommendations and every single time they leave raving about it. It is always packed so just mentally prepare for a wait. We usually put our name on the waitlist and then walk around or grab boba from the front area while we wait. The takeout section is equally slammed with orders. The menu is great and has photos and it also includes options for vegetarians. The hand pulled noodles are super popular and must order dish. You can watch them being made through a glass section in the middle of the restaurant which is a fun touch. The staff is super efficient and friendly even when it's at max capacity. Every dish we've tried has been consistently delicious, nothing has ever disappointed. One of those spots that never gets old no matter how many times you go. Highly recommend.

    The food at Corner 17 is always delicious and fresh. Their bubble tea is one of the best in the STL.. The staff are always pleasant and provide prompt service. The lime accent color gives the restaurant a calm ambience. The big window looking into the kitchen is fun to watch them making the noodles by hand!

    ALWAYS a great experience at Corner 17!! I've been here so many times and tried so many different kinds of dishes and appetizers on their menu - everything's delicious! Today was the first time I tried dessert from Corner 17 (since I'm usually too full for dessert!) : we got the Mango Shaved Ice. So good!! The mangos are fresh and the shaved ice also has the flavor of mango, without tasting artificial. The popping bobas on the side are also a great touch. Service is also always quick and friendly. Would recommend to anyone who hasn't been here before yet!

    Kung Pao Chicken and rice
    David C.

    When you see the option to join the waitlist, you should take it; when you see the ETA, you should believe it. Corner 17 is a popular spot at lunch time, dinner time, and any time between. Simce we already found ourselves near the Loop, my wife and I decided to visit for the second time tonight. We're glad we did. As busy as it was, their system is efficient. There was a span of about 50 minutes from walking into the dining room and back out onto Delmar, with multiple water refills and check-ins along the way. Once you open the menu, time is replaced with a question: How can I decide what sounds best with so many options that sound delicious? We both struggled between three or four dishes, but soaked in the bright green walls and large window into the kitchen as the team hand-stretched noodles and our choice narrowed down to an order. We finally settled on an appetizer of crab rangoon along with Kung Pao chicken and sesame chicken for our entrees. The crab rangoons have a wonderful crispy wonton texture and balanced cream cheese filling that leans on the sweeter side without being too sweet. My main dish (Kung Pao chicken) featured a rich sauce coating that was slightly sweet and slightly savory, with a variety of subtle flavor notes and a pronounced kick of chili peppers at the end. The texture combo of marinated chicken and roasted peanuts paired very nicely with the soft, fluffy white rice served on the side. My desire to enjoy it again as a leftover this week was the only thing that kept me from eating the entire entree tonight. Corner 17 is worth the wait. Check it out if you're visiting STL or check it out again to explore more of their expansive menu - we definitely will.

    Corner 17 Hong Shao Pork
    Sandi M.

    The Hongshao pork ribs and the spicy wontons are my 100% go to. The ribs are always tender and flavorful. The service was timely but I will say everyone's food at our table was brought out at different times. Maybe 5-10 minutes apart, not an issue personally but an observation. The ambiance was great, very packed. I would recommend putting your name down on the wait list as the wait is lengthy. Our estimated wait time was 110 minutes!

    V11 Bok Choy With Garlic Sauce
    Jenelle B.

    Tonight's visit was our sixth or seventh to Corner 17. Every time we discover a new dish we love! Stir fried, hand shaved noodles were the star tonight. Amazing texture, fresh-made in-house, lightly sauced and served with cabbage and chicken. Our go-to sides to share are the bok choy and the sautéed green beans. The must do appetizer is the wontons in chili oil. Service is always prompt, but this place is hopping so be sure to get on the waitlist about 30 minutes before you arrive.

    Vanilla Boba Tea and Corner 17 Thai Tea
    Carrie R.

    Grabbed lunch to go and was not disappointed, per usual! I've tried a few different things from the menu but I consistently get the shrimp or chicken stir fry noodle and a Thai boba tea. It was a relatively busy lunch time so I decided to take it to go. I gave 4 stars only because the interactions I've had with staff have been just ok. They're helpful and knowledgeable of the menu but there is room for improvement for friendliness. Aside from that, im glad I got to experience this place when there aren't so many people inside! Hah.

    S7 Fish With Chinese Pickle Soup
    Kay S.

    Although a very busy restaurant, the wait staff was polite explained the dishes and followed up well. We tried two dishes a pickled fish soup (sounds different but it was great) and garlic beef. The soup portion was huge. The wontons for an appetizer was great. The beef entree was our least favorite, it was a little sweet for me, but not terrible. The Thai tea was delish! Matcha was good, but the Thai tea was much better. The menu was huge, Will definitely be back to try other things.

    First time at the Corner 17 with my wife and sister! We had a great experience at this Chinese restaurant in St. Louis! The food was fresh, flavorful, and served hot. The crab Rangoons were crispy and creamy, the dumplings were perfectly steamed, and the orange chicken had the right balance of sweet and tangy. The Kung Pao shrimp packed a nice spicy kick without being overpowering. The service was friendly and fast, and the atmosphere was cozy. Overall it's definitely a spot I'd recommend for a tasty meal!

    This is a busy place! You can check in, and they will text you when your table is ready. There is a waiting area on the right side of the area, I think it's also a place to order drinks. When our table was ready, we were led to the dining area in the middle of the room. Great view of the window to see the chefs making the noodles. So interesting! Liz was our server and she was great! She took our appetizer orders and then let us think about our main dish option. She took the time to explain some of the dishes we had questions about and explained mala. Fried potstickers - great, chicken skewers - great, wontons in chili oil - great - it is hot, Crab Rangoon - ok - too sweet for me. Overall, really great appetizers. General Tsos chicken - good, orange chicken - good, black pepper chicken, really good, and mala stir fry - interesting. Liz explained the mala stir fry to perfection as a little tingly/numbing and a little hot at 1 heat level. I think maybe I just didn't pick the right ingredients; Bok choy, cauliflower, cabbage, chicken and hand shaved noodles. Not a lot of flavors there. I really liked the black pepper chicken so on a return visit, I would order that.

    Beef Stew Noodle Soup
    Erica H.

    Overall, the noodle soup was great! There's a generous amount of beef, and I love how you can choose different types of noodles! I got the hand-shaved noodles because they give a chewy texture. The parking requires some walking if you park in the back of the restaurant, but overall, I would love to come back and try tiger dishes from the menu!

    Beef Stir Fry
    Tepra W.

    I love the central location of this spot, located on the edge of The Loop on Delmar. There is plenty of parking in the lot behind the business and a very pleasant and safe walk from your car to their front doors. One thing I noticed and appreciated about Corner 17 was the productivity of the entire staff. I think the space operates with such efficiency because of the incredible staff. My guest and I went on a Friday evening, and it was pretty busy. I recommend reserving a spot prior to getting there. We ended up waiting about 45 minutes to an hour. The space was pretty clean, and the energy and vibe were nice. Once we were seated, our server brought us waters out right away (I loved that!). The menu is very vast, so it took us a minute to order. I got the chicken wings for an appetizer and the beef stir fry for my entrée. I thought everything tasted pretty good! I could see myself coming back if invited and trying a different thing on the menu. I'm curious how everything else tastes, lol. The portions are great; I ended up having some to reheat for both lunch and dinner. NICE! Overall, it was a great experience. No complaints.

Everything looked fresh and they refill often. There are also lots of soup base options to choose from plus a stir fry option if you want to mix it up. The make your own sauce station is a great touch too. The staff works incredibly fast at turning tables and keeping everything clean. They only have one bathroom (it's clean) so just be aware for wait times. They also give you one free rice bowl which is a small but good bonus. There's a good amount of seating though I've heard the line goes out the door on weekends. Overall I really loved this place and I am already looking forward to coming back.

    This was my first experience at a hot pot by the pound restaurant. I've only been to all you can…read moreeat hot pot restaurants, so I was excited to try this place out. Apparently, I wasn't the only one because this place got packed by 6p on a weekday! The line was out the door. It can be a little confusing for a first time goer as you enter the place and grab a bowl to select the ingredients you want to eat. The minimum weight that you have to buy is 0.9 lbs, but you really won't know how much your bowl weighs until you get up to the cashier and put it on the scale. My bowl was underweight my first time through, so I went back to grab more ingredients. If I had to guess the minimum cost for a 0.9 lb bowl, it's probably about $16, which is a pretty good price for a hot pot. My bowl weighed about 0.97 and it was way more than I could comfortably eat. The next decision you have to make after you have selected your ingredients is the base and spicy level. I went with #1 Oil splash spicy soup at medium spice level. Now, I enjoy spicy foods, but this was at the upper limit of enjoyability. Although tasty, I think the oil in the broth got to be too much and I will want to try a different base next time. After you pay for your food, you get a number which you take to a table of your choosing and wait for your bowl to come out (they cook it for you). There is a drinking water station next to the free rice station, which was around the corner from the complimentary pickled vegetable station. Overall, positive experience and I would return for more. .|\---/| | @_@ | ..\_^_/..2026
