China Place - Des Moines

Delivery was fast, portions are huge, best Chinese food we?ve had in a long times! Kudos!

The food here is not very desirable. I?m not a fan of the pay first at the counter and then bring my order. I wasn?t check on after my order was placed on my table. I asked for what their specialties are and I was given standard answers like sesamechicken. Not what I wanted to hear. I went with something safe, Mongolian beef lunch special with hot and sour soup and friedrice. The order came out very quickly which isn?t surprising given I was the only patron. It was a little too fast and had thetexture like it was microwaved. The taste matched. The hot and sour soup tasted like sweet tomato soup base from a can. Thefried rice lacked flavor. I wish it was a better experience overall. This is authentic to flavorless Americanized Chinesecuisine.

I once ate here 13 days in a row during college, and my band wrote a song about this restaurant. ?There?s a place that I?d like to be, dial 633-9393?. China Place is the best.

Went with my friend prior to church. the place was empty. Had a sewer smell to the establishment. Looked clean but run down. Had the nicest server who was on his second day of work. had the chicken lo mein. chicken was rubbery. Got the food sweats. Than gotsick. Do not go to this place.

Great food Specifically the Chicken fried rice (real white meat , and tons of egg too. Amazing egg-drop soup (Has an amazing sweet undertone from corn. Portions were great.
