TV: timed in to kids programming and loud at any point and time. Kids: the daughter is quite enough. But the son talks out loud....saying what he's seeing on TV....non-stop....and I mean non-stop. And he is loud, fast talking....and oh, did I say loud? And this is how this place was on this visit. Read my other review, where the owner; which was our waiter one time in the past; never put the daughter down; as he took our order or served us. And the daughter was sick and a snotty nose that was snorting around like all get out! Service: They are never organized or attentive at all to the sit in customers. Tables always sit dirty. And if you eliminate the two tables...the owner's kids dominate...I think that only leaves (4) total tables to manage. And I sit there...and see multiple Door Dash orders get messed up and/or take forever. This last time, a Dasher left after waiting forever. The new owners may be nice or well intended. But...they have ruined this place...for all the wrong reasons.

On my recent trip to Springfield, MO I had a craving for Chinese food. I used Uber Eats to find the highest rated spot in the area and was happy to see they had one of my go to meals, Roast Pork Egg Foo Young. I ordered the combination dinner which comes with Fried Rice and an Egg Roll. I had a sweet tooth and gave their Almond Cookies a try as well. The order arrived fast and fresh, thanks to my delivery driver Jeffery. The portions were very generous, the food was hot and very tasty. I'd say it's one of the better Egg Foo Young's and Sauces I've had from a Chinese restaurant. The Fried Rice was fresh and the Egg Roll was well stuffed, crispy and had a great taste. For dessert I had Almond Cookies, they were the perfect sweetness to top off a good meal. My fortune cookie fortune was fitting for the week of business meetings I was conducting. Overall it was just what I was looking for a stay in dinner. I'd check out China King on West Republic Road again next time I'm craving Chinese in Springfield.

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!

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)

This is the second time we've been there for lunch and left feeling that the taste was no longer special and price points no longer seem reasonable for lunch. We each ordered hot tea and lunch "specials" of cashew and sweet and sour chicken ($10.49 each.) Choice of egg roll or 2 crab Rangoon was an add on of $3.50 each and a bowl of hot and sour soup each was another $4+. The lunch with tip was $60 for the two of us. Oh, and my wife received egg drop soup instead of her hot and sour which was traded out when we mentioned it to our server. Speaking of the service, other than the mix up of soup, our server was very friendly as was the hostess. Sorry to say we'll be trying out other Chinese restaurants. Not a repeater for me now.

I tried calling them numerous times but their phone kept coming up with a recording saying it was busy. My kids were starving so we had to go through the bag and clean as much as we could. When I finally got ahold of someone about an hour later she talked to the owner and he offered 2 free crab rangoon. I told her that since part of our food was inedible I didn't think that was fair. I asked to speak with the owner. She told me he was busy and then hung up on me. I tried calling back numerous times and never got an answer. I am not only disappointed at the condition the food was in when it got to us but also how they handled the problem. The food is good but not good enough to be treated that way. Shame on you, Panda Inn. **Update!** A few days after this incident I went and personally spoke with the owner. I explained to him what had happened so I was upset at how I was being treated afterward. After I had the chance to explain everything to him he was very apologetic. He told me that he felt badly because the delivery guy lied to him and told him I must have made up a story. When I showed him the pictures he was very upset. he ended up giving me a big hug everything is too good. I believe he got rid of the delivery driver. The owner is very sweet when you have the chance and talk with him.
