China Cafe,

"I ordered a small coconut shrimp and this is what I got for 10.69. I'm extremely disappointed and will not be back. If the shrimp were bigger I could understand but they're little. I also ordered a Rangoon with my combo and got an egg roll. I ordered a large general tso and it was actually pretty decent hence the 3 stars."

"The delivery is pretty simple and I love it. There have been rarely any issues and if there was, you can call them and they will fix it quick and easy. But, I doubt there will be any issues. This is my first time ordering delivery so it’s been a pleasant experience! Phone calls and ordering when you walk in are great options too."

"Very unsatisfied. Had my food delivered due to my fiancé having the car, and they forgot my egg drop soup. I called the restaurant and was told all they could do was a refund. They couldn't send it back out due to delivery being through a third party. Then was told if I would have done a pick up order I could have made sure all my food was there. Finally sat down to eat and my chicken fried rice was very dry and one of my egg rolls were burnt. Very sad and unsatisfied dinner"

"I remember first going to China Cafe when still in high school nearly 20 years ago. The food came in dishes shaped like boats, which was a first for me at the time. Come to think of it, I don't think I've seen anywhere else serve food in such containers. At any rate, I hadn't been back to China Cafe since returning to the Quad Cities a few years ago, so tonight I decided to stop in for some Mongolian beef and dumplings in a boat. The place is pretty much as I remember it. In fact, it's exactly how I remember it, just a little older and more worn in a few places. The tables and booths appear to be new from what I remember, but everything else is showing a bit of wear. The wood floors, which still appear left over from a gymnasium or dance studio, are pretty much the same. The drop ceiling and accent lights are showing some wear, as is the fading wall paper along all the walls. None of this is bad - it all comes together to put off a lived-in, hole-in-the-wall appearance. I kinda like it. I opted for my aforementioned order of Mongolian beef and fried dumplings on this particular trip, both of which I had within 10 minutes of ordering. Both tasted great, exactly as I remember them! The only small exception to my nostalgia experienced tonight was a little disappointing...the food no longer comes in plastic boats. I suppose change is inevitable, even if it's a little lame... I'm definitely coming back again - this remains my favorite Chinese food restaurant in the area. I hope they stick around for another 20 years. Thanks, China Cafe!"

"Very expensive considering the portion and quality. They made the food really fast and maybe too fast. The lo mien was not well stir fried. It’s just bland and sulky. The dish that comes with rice, small size cost us $8.29!!! I mean other Chinese restaurants in the area sell the same thing at 6 ish or even 5 ish, taste better and come in a bigger portion (main thing separated from rice which makes it not sulky). It’s just not good. Not to add that the lady was so rude and mean. As a local myself, I would recommend you go to China City by Northwest blvd. So much better, food, price and the service…"
