Rock hard, old Cream cheese wontons. Legit could break your teeth.
Ashley H.

Food was awful! I made the mistake on Door Dash and chose this Chinese restaurant instead of the one I normally eat from and it was a BIG mistake. Just to outline the garbage food they sent me and how they handle customer service//request: 1) My beef entree was almost all onion with a few slivers of beef here and there. Also, the onions were soggy and burnt. 2) The cream cheese wontons were rock solid and burnt. You could break a bone with one of them. 3) my last hope was the egg roll and it was burnt and old on one side and soggy on the next. 4) Portion VS PRICE is pathetic 5) My door dash drive was kind to make sure that I had the extra duck sauce and the man told him he could not give me anymore. AWFUL customer service. I got 4 packets of random sauces and 2 duck sauce. 6) Last, their cheap plastic container and sloppiness cause the food to leak. The ONLY positive thing about my heart experience with this place is my Door Dash Driver Ben who was a rock star so much that I left him an extra $10 under the door mat. Don't waste your money on this place.

Egg Drop Soup
Chrysta J.

Our son noticed this tiny restaurant across the street from Sam's Club as we sat at a stop light and since shopping always makes us hungry we decided to give The Rice Bowl a try. It was around 1pm in the afternoon and the place was empty but the young woman that greeted us was really sweet so we let her seat us and the three of us ordered our drinks. There's little tables throughout and seems like it would be nice for a couples lunch date. She quickly returned with menus in hand and offered us some appetizers as starters. We decided on pan fried pot stickers and tempura shrimp. Both appetizers were served hot and delicious!! Although each of us enjoyed both appetizers, my son and I favored the tempura shrimp while my husband's was the pot stickers. They have an inexpensive lunch menu that was perfect for us to choose from so we each ordered something different. I included egg drop soup with my lunch since I absolutely love it...Yummy yummy!! Everything was cooked well and came out steaming hot. We had no complaints and thought it was really nice that free refills were offered even to go when we were leaving. I'll definitely be looking forward to another visit after shopping again

Singapore noodles, fried rice, orange chicken, general tso chicken
Karla Roxanne M.

Came for lunch with my kid and tried a few different things in the menu. 2 combo plate with orange chicken and general Tso chicken, egg roll and fried rice, Singapore noodles, flying dragon roll and the screaming roll. Everything was delicious, the best I've had in a while, came out promptly and the service was decent. The man answering the phones and waiting on our table was polite and efficient.

Beef with Broccoli Combo

Wife ordered the beef and broccoli and I dropped it off at work with her, she called me and said she found a bug in her food. I called the place back letting them know, and I was told I had to bring the food back to the restaurant to receive a refund. I would have, but it's a 30 to 40-min drive back to the restaurant. So we decided to eat the charge and we will not be going back.

4 combo box
Daniel G.

i'm not a fan of leaving poor reviews of small local businesses so i'll leave a 5 star rating with some small opinions. the place is clean and they follow covid rules which is awesome but the rice was very dry, the sushi was also very dry. the Szechuan beef had very little beef in the 4 combo box. the orange chicken was delicious and so was the egg roll. the money you pay for the amount you get is definitely a good deal. i will definitely be back!!!!!

Here are then terms for the fine print.
Dureyl O.

This restaurant has Groupons in the fine print it clearly states the terms. When calling in the workers argue with you about which food you can order when youreateyijf within the parameters of the fine print. The lady also implied that i was someone who had called earlier when i have Never called in before today! I've also used this Groupon in person and order exactly what i wanted with no issue. Stay away from this place and the poor customer service.

Hunan chicken
Amanda M.

The reviews I saw were all horrible... so why did I try this place? Because I'm a weirdo and for some odd reason (we had a free menu in our door and were too lazy to find another place) we decided to give it a shot. Having the worst expectations, we were actually pleasantly surprised. BUT I do believe that if I wasn't expecting anything I would have thought it was still pretty good. We got the Kung Pow Shrimp and Hunan Chicken. Both were good, both had flavor, and both had enough shrimp and chicken. Sure, it isn't incredible... but it's also 4-6$. They also added egg rolls, which were pretty good as well. The guy on the phone talks very quietly... so be sure to know exactly what you want and make sure to listen carefully :)

Seriously, some of the best Chinese food I've had in Tulsa. At one point, I came here three times…read morein ONE WEEK! A little overindulgent? Maybe. But what do you expect when the food is Two of my favorites are the cumin beef and the fried ribs, both are packed with flavor and come with your choice of fried or white rice. I've also the braised pork which was ok, the pork was a bit tough. Ive had the spicy dumplings, which are really good. My only knock is that the one time I ordered them to go, most had broken apart by the time I got home. Still delicious, just a little disappointing presentation-wise. The green beans are an absolute must-try, and PLEASE do not sleep on the cucumber salad! It's fresh, flavorful, and easily my favorite appetizer on the menu. If you're looking for great Chinese food in Tulsa, this place absolutely deserves a spot on your list. And yes...I'll definitely be back. Just maybe not three times in the same week.

The food was delicious, hot and large portions. I got the sweet and sour chicken and my son got the General Tso's chicken, both served with rice. We shared the eggrolls as an appetizer; they were so crispy and fresh. We were waited on by Amy and she was quite attentive, plus kept our drinks filled. The vibe gave a Chinese vibe with decorative masks and fish on the wall. We will definitely be back.

This was hands down the best food and customer service I've ever experienced. From the moment I…read morecalled to place my order, I knew I was in for something special. I didn't even need to look at a menu--I knew what I wanted because it was Chinese food. I ordered Orange Chicken, and let me tell you, it was perfection. Lightly breaded, perfectly crispy, and somehow still juicy. The sauce? Next level--made with fresh oranges and light in both color and texture. YUM! It came with white rice, and I decided to add what I thought was "Chicken Teriyaki on a stick." The owner kindly corrected me, explaining that it was actually beef on a stick but similar to what I was describing. He even walked me through the price of each item. When I got to the restaurant to pick up my order, I was asked politely to wait since everything is made fresh to order. While waiting, I struck up a conversation with the owner. He shared that he and his team have been running this place for 43 years--WOW! That level of dedication really shows. He even asked if I liked Egg Drop Soup, and when I accidentally shouted "YES!" a little too enthusiastically, he surprised me with a huge container of it--for free. Amazing customer service, so friendly and genuine. When I got home, my wife and I offered a prayer to thank God for the meal, and then... we dug in. And let me tell you--my taste buds were NOT ready. The Orange Chicken was sitting in that fresh, zesty sauce, soaking up all the goodness. Then I tried the beef stick... HOLY CRAP. I dunked it in the Egg Drop Soup, and my mind was blown. It was chaos at the table--our hands were colliding as we fought for more, the sounds of chomping, moans, and groans filling the room. I was so impressed that I had to call the restaurant to let them know they just changed my life. I mean, the food was THAT good. If you're looking for incredible food and even better customer service, this is the place. 10/10--I'm already planning my next visit.

The Beef or Chicken Broccoli is a good classic choice. The egg drop soup is also good and the egg rolls never disappoint. The family and staff are always super friendly. This is one of the reasons they have been around so long. They care about the food and quality of food that they serve to their customers. I recommend them a 10 out of 10.

*** Review is during COVID-19 ***…read more Was craving some Chinese food recently and Yelp led me to China 8... and I'm glad it did! I knew I wanted something that felt like a classic night of Chinese takeout but a little more of a local spot and not TOO cookie cutter either. It turns out this was the right place for that - it felt like the best of both worlds! Staff person at front counter was wearing a face shield and they had moved the tables completely out of the way so I think they are not doing dine-in right now. We ordered two soups to share - the egg drop and the hot and sour. I've never really liked hot and sour soup but I gave it a try anyway. I still didn't love it but others said it was good haha. The egg drop soup was good, but I do feel like it was a little lacking in flavor. I know egg drop soup is pretty simple on purpose but I still felt like it could have used one more spice or ingredient. I liked that it came with wonton strips, which were good. The soup we ordered was fine, but it luckily didn't match the rest of the food, which on the other hand seemed much better than just "fine". For my main meal I had the kung pao chicken. To me, it wasn't spicy, but thee sauce was so good that I didn't really mind - which is kind of rare since I almost always want spicy food! The sauce was super sweet and full of flavor. I hadn't tasted something like it when I've had that dish before, and I thought that was really cool. They gave a good amount of chicken too! I substituted the rice for lomein because I was really in the mood for noodles. It was a great choice - they were super yummy as well! I'm not sure they are or not, but the noodles almost seemed homemade, like you could taste the flouriness of them... in a good way. Everyone agreed the lomein was really good. Maybe the best I've had! The portion size was really good, especially for the price - win win!! They have a small and large size for pretty much everything and we got the large for entrees and the soup as well. One other thing I specifically noticed in general was that everything tasted like a distinct dish instead of everything kind of tasting the same, like I feel is sometimes the case at similar places. Don't let the unassuming outside fool you! It may seem like your average Chinese spot but I really felt like it was so much less generic, while also not straying far from what you expect at all either. Definitely want to go back!
