    General Tsos and Singapore Chow Mei Fun
    Steve S.

    I've lived in the south suburbs for a few years and East China remains the best and most consistent Chinese delivery option available IMO. Patrons would be wise to try the Singapore Chow Mei Fun and General Tso's entrees. Also, for those of you who like a crispy chicken wing, try them here. East China also offers very reasonably priced lunch and dinner combination platters. The owners are always customer centric and a pleasure to do business. I've tried others and East China remains my go-to for both customer experience and its food.

    Kung Pao chicken combo. Lots of Pao, very little Kung. But still okay!

    This place is pretty decent! A lot of the food is very reminiscent of the typical American-Chinese food you find everywhere, but they simply execute it better than most. The Singapore Chow Mei Fun is VERY good, and well worth ordering. I don't think I'd ever tried it before but it's basically thin noodles and curry with a variety of meats (shrimp, chicken and pork maybe) and a little spice. Yum! I also ordered the General Tso's and Kung Pao chickens "Extra Spicy" and it was medium at best... but I ordered Chicken and Garlic Sauce "Medium Heat" and my girlfriend thought it was hot. She's a wimp though, so it was probably also medium. In any case, not very spicy-- kind of a bummer. Also, half of my General Tso's had soggy breading and half of it was crispy. I think this is typical from them, as I remember that being a complaint before too. Sauce is good though, and so are the portions. Egg Rolls are fairly meh. The Singapore Chow Mei Fun is bomb though, so 4 stars it is! Picture time!

All the Malaysian dishes that we ordered were flavorful and authentic. They also served complimentary fruit at the end of the meal which was a pleasant surprise. They also have a few bakery items like custard buns, milk buns, curry buns etc that will only be available on the weekend starting June 2026. Prices for bakery items are slightly expensive for the size ($3.50), but I'll pay just to have easy access to it as there aren't any traditional Asian bakeries nearby.

Everything was fresh and flavorful. The sesame chicken was amazing, easily the standout, and the chicken quality across all dishes was excellent with generous portions. The Singapore chow fun was delicious and packed with flavor, and the extra protein/veggies was well worth it. The staff was incredibly friendly and even mentioned that if there were any issues with the order, I could call back and they'd make it right. That kind of customer service goes a long way. Online ordering was easy and seamless. The inside is small with only a few tables, but they clearly do takeout very well. Quick service, great food, and genuinely kind staff. We'll definitely be ordering again.

When we walked in, a young man greeted us from across the restaurant and asked if we were dining in. I said yes, and he told us to sit anywhere we liked. After we sat down, he brought over the menus and immediately asked if we were ready to order. I smiled and let him know we needed a little time since we had never been there before. We looked through the menu and decided to start with the chicken skewer and the crab rangoon. Both were delicious and full of flavor. For our meals, I ordered the chicken banh mi and my wife ordered the Bun Bo Hue. She loved her dish and I really enjoyed my sandwich. They also serve freshly squeezed lemonade, which was excellent. I actually ended up ordering two because it was that good. Service was pretty lackluster. The kid helping us looked like he might not even be in high school yet, so that might explain some of it. The restaurant itself is small and simple inside. Nothing amazing but nothing bad either. Overall, the visit was good. The service wasn't great, but the food made up for it. We would consider coming back if we happen to be in the area.

My mom placed an online order to be picked up at 6:46. We arrived closer to 7 and my boyfriend stated the name of our order and waited 10 minutes. He told the host our order name again and she acted like she had no idea what he was talking about. They didn't have our order that we had confirmation for and instead of working on our order, we had to wait for 40 minutes for our dinner. We ordered this food to make our lives easier for baking and cleaning tonight for thanksgiving prep and instead it put us behind. They offered an extra order of pho and in the end didn't give it to us because whoever was in the back said no. The food was not the quality it usually is either. The wontons were very chewy, the rice flour cake was a messy and burnt a bit, and the pad Thai leaked in the bag and spilled over everything else. There was nearly a cup of watery sauce in the bag. This was a disappointing experience and I'm not sure I'll be back after this. This is some of the worst customer service I've experienced.

The ceiling is decorated with mason jars, which gives the restaurant such a unique and charming feel. The restaurant was clean, the service was excellent, and everyone was friendly and welcoming. We came to try some Minnesota specialties, including the walleye. Unfortunately, the sauce served with it contains alcohol, so I wasn't able to have it. There wasn't an alternative sauce available, so I had the fish plain. I don't think that really did the walleye justice, so it wasn't my favorite dish. Some of the other items were also a bit hit-or-miss for my personal taste, but that's more about my preferences than the quality of the food. One thing we really loved was the adorable bakery and ice cream counter at the front of the restaurant. Grabbing ice cream before we left was the perfect ending to our meal.
