I was just visiting my grandma and we had Chinese. They have several tables but there is junk all over so I was given the impression they didn't want us to stay. So take out and delivery only. Service was wonderful!! People were nice, better than most. They do not have fountain pop! For a fast food Chinese they have the best egg rolls I have ever had there was like real chicken strips in it. Not filled with cabbage and pink chunks. read more

I ordered the large sweet and sour chicken With chicken fried rice. The rice I got was shrimp fried rice and the chicken was not freshly cooked. The serving sizes compared to Rice House are a joke. I would not recommend ordering from this establishment. read more

Some of the worst (or no taste ) tasting food I've had. Although the food was hot when delivered , it all resembled wet cardboard , no taste at all. Very disappointed. read more

Ordered and they forgot my drink. I called the shop and the person said he would call me after checking order. Surprise no call. I tipped the driver. This is why people don't tip anymore because if they screw up your order, they don't fix it. read more

Always great food! Crab Rangoons are delicious! My favorite dish is the chicken Mai fun. Delivery was fast and food was still hot!

You need to understand what you are getting and the value proposition they offer. It is quick and cheap. The Chicken alone in is great. The shrimp egg rolls are awesome. If your thing is crab Rangoon, we can not be friends. Fast, cheap and good is why they are 5 stars. read more

Horrible! Ordered chow mein through door dash and it doesn't even come with mein, which means noodles! Called the restaurant and directly to resolve it and at first the waitress said it is too far to re-deliver. Then I talked to the owner and he said chow mein is actually not noodles but these fried wonton strips that they gave me... Come on, I'm Chinese, I've had 40 years of Chinese food and I know these are not chow mein. Then he proceeded to say the "Americans" eat this kind of noodles. What? I've been living in the US for 25 years and I haven't had this kind of "noodles" either! Or am I wrong? Anyone who's had chow mein here could you please lmk what kind of "noodles" they serve? read more

Small place. Only thing vegan-friendly is the vegetable fried rice and fortune cookies. They are great!! I will definitely go back for my fried rice, yum!! The price is great too. Very nice. The bathroom was not clean. It is certainly not the most spiffy place... but hey, the food was good when you are craving some fried rice. read more

East China - Veggie fried rice - Chinese Near Me - Waterloo, Iowa

I've always ordered online, directly through their website and everything has been excellent. I don't bother with DoorDash or any of those third party food couriers. Both delivery and pickup are fast and the food has always been tasty. This is our go-to place for Chinese take-out! Chicken Broccoli is a frequent favorite, and their crab rangoons are an absolute comfort food! (somehow my "location" is set to California, but I promise I am a Waterloo native!) read more

Was impressed by fast delivery. Was not impressed after finding an unknown thing in my egg foo young. Posted pic. I don't know what type of material it is. Although it looks like a fingernail it is not. Unless it's a fake nail. Still disgusting. Will not order from them again. read more

Ordered 2 beef lo meins (1 L & 1 S), 1 beef with mushrooms (L), fried rice (S) and side of crab ragoon (7) order total $33.06 and that's the price for carryout. If you want to have it delivered; $2 more. Not a bad price for all the items we ordered and the food was delicious. We fed 2 adults and 3 children with this order. FYI: if you order beef with mushrooms be prepared to have it covered with vegetables. I was unaware that it came with vegetables and couldn't really eat it. read more

This place is great for takeout but not to dine in. The food is great, always made fresh & hot. Probably some of the best Chinese food in the cedar valley. Staff are friendly & make sure you are taken care of quickly. This is not a place I would like to dine in. There is a small dining area but sometimes it seems like they may use it for their work area & tables look grimy. Love love love the food so we will always do take out. read more

This is my favorite east China to order from! They always get my order right and are early on their deliveries! I just let my food sit for 20 minutes and it's still steaming hot!!! read more

Ordered delivery on a stormy night and they arrived at a good time (considering the weather) with the the food still nice and hot! The food was delish and hit the spot! read more

When this Place came to town it was awesome food was hot great season well. But over the years it's kind of fell short the last five meals I've ordered have not been Good the noodles and rice is really dry and the meat doesn't taste well. I hate it when a great place turn sour. read more

Worst place. Incredibly rude when you order. They own rice bowl as well- which is unfortunate because I was looking forward to a Chinese place in the Cedar Valley that wasn't like this.... the small towns around us have better Chinese food! read more

Love Love Love their Chicken and Broccoli. The best in town. Fast Service and very nice people.

Seafood combo which is a house special which my husband ordered was TOTALLY not what was advertised in the menu. We called immediately and was TOTALLY blown off. Terrible food. Terrible customer service. Dishonest advertising. read more

In my professional opinion as one who has taste tested every chinese place in town, this is by far my favorite. Made to order take-out or delivery, or you can eat in there but most don't at all. Lunch prices are $6 and $7-9 for dinner combo. Both come from entree, fried/white rice, eggroll/crab ragoon and fortune cookie. Food is made on the spot when you order and the portions are generous. You'll be stuffed or have leftovers for later. read more

I waited an hour and a half for my food, only to get the wrong order, not to mention ice cold. I paid $2 extra for fried rice and got white rice. When I called, was told there wasn't anything they could do except send me fried rice (and wait another hour and a half). Won't eat here again. read more
