Having lived all over the United States including both coasts, I have had countless meals of Chinese takeout. That said, hands-down best Chinese food in the country especially for the price. read more

This is our new favorite Chinese restaurant Service is fast and courteous. We were promptly seated, served quickly, the meals came out beautifully presented and tasted fabulous. We were looking for vegetable choices or meatless options and Chan's has plenty to choose from. It's the best selection of vegetable choices at a Chinese restaurant that I've ever seen. We will be back. Service is great. The food is great. Prices are reasonable. I only wish they had delivery. Walk around the restaurant and check out the dollar bill Origami collection. read more

They are quick, and accurate. Lots of decorations made of money: they are wealthy. Lots of good food for the price.

I give Chans 3 stars because though I LOVE the pineapple chicken (and it sends my blood sugar through the roof) LOL - The only issue i have is with the management. Over the past 30 years I have patronized this establishment and the people who check you out because I typically do carry out are just not overly friendly. Customer service with a SMILE is Numero Uno to me. If you cannot smile and go the extra mile to be kind to your customers - I take my business elsewhere. Good food - need to improve on your people skills please. Thank you. Oh as far as Yelps option to select "GENDER NEUTRAL RESTROOMS?" PLEASE! Chans please do not follow this rhetoric of a gender neutral restroom! As a woman I do NOT want a man in the women's restroom! read more

Chan's Restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Cape Girardeau, Missouri

Love Chan's! My family have been eating here for years, my absolute favorite place to get Chinese food. They are always quick, kind, and accurate. The food is always delicious. read more

Like everyone else, love the ma pa tofu. My other favorite is the spicy mei fun noodle soup. I think it's on their Chinese menu. Highly recommend you give it a try read more

Chan's is a staple restaurant in Cape and for good reason. They have delicious food and is one of the most consistent restaurants in town. Their combination meals give you a lot of food for the price, so much that it makes multiple meals for myself and my wife. I also enjoy the origami that is throughout the dining room area. Also, for people who enjoy the more authentic cuisine, Chan's has an authentic menu available as well. I love their shrimp rangoon sides, as well as their Egg Foo Young. Plenty of options are available, so check it out! read more

There are plenty of Chinese restaurants in Cape, but good Chinese food is a scarcity. Chan's looks a little shabby on the exterior, but so do all the other Chinese restaurants in Cape. However, the interior has a cozy, inviting atmosphere. There is relaxing Asian music playing in the background, Asian 'artifacts' on the walls, Chinese lanterns and mobiles, and amazing dollar bill origami. The first thing we noticed about the patrons is that there were several Asian people dining here. This was a good indicator to us that the cuisine would be tasty and authentic. The menu is typical of Chinese take-out restaurants. We ordered off the combination meal which was an incredible deal. Each of us received two shrimp rangoons, a soup of our choice (egg flower or wonton), two scoops of rice of our choice (white or fried), and a huge portion of our main meal. We had the beef pepper steak and sesame chicken for our entrees. There was more food than we could eat; all for under $16.00 including tax. As far as the food itself, it's not the most authentic Chinese food we have ever tasted, but it was still darn good. The fried rice lacked vegetables and egg, and the sesame chicken was very sweet (almost like honey chicken) and lacked vegetables (some broccoli would've been nice), but the lack of vegetables at Chinese restaurants seems like a reoccurring thing with our dining experience in southeastern MO. It's comforting to know that there is a Chinese restaurant in Cape that is not sterile in atmosphere, actually makes an attempt to provide a comfortable Asian atmosphere, AND has great tasting food with prompt and friendly service. We will definitely be back to this restaurant when we have cravings for Chinese food! read more

Chan's Restaurant - Sesame Chicken Combo Dinner - Chinese Near Me - Cape Girardeau, Missouri

See all

Best Chinese food in Cape Girardeau if you order off the authentic menu rather than the Americanized menu that most people recognize as Chinese food. My family likes the dumplings, especially fried and for the price it's much better than making them at home. read more

Singapore Mei Fung is excellent. Also the General Tso is a great pick. Great Chinese food at good prices.

Don't let the outside fool you. This is one of those rare brick box gems. The food is wonderful and the service is on parr. I would say the Wontons are absolutely worth trying. read more

Definetely the best Chinese place in town with no doubt. Everything is homemade and fresh, the price is also reasonable.

I loved Chan's when I lived in Cape. My only regret is that I didn't learn about it sooner - but never I never had a poor experience. The citrus sauce that is on the table is amazing, and their food is great. Never had an issue with staff, never had an issue with food, both dine-in and take-out have been great as well. read more

The best Orange Chicken in town

The best Chinese in Cape Girardeau. Period.

Get the combination. Portion size is still very big and you get a side. The sweet and sour shrimp was amazing. The moo goo gai pan was good as well. Loved the shrimp Rangoon. Prices were pretty reasonable considering the amount of food you get. Decor was a bit dated. read more

This was a great treasure discovered via yelp. It was spotlessly clean. The food was authentic. We ordered mooshoo pork, vegetable egg for young, curry chicken and general Tysons chicken. All were fantastic. Authentic, proper sauces accompanied each. Service was quick, attentive and friendly. Will return if a roadtrip takes us through the area again. read more

Awesome food with fast friendly service. Highly recommended for lunch or diner. Great menu

Best Chinese place in Cape. All of the local old timers will ramble on about how great Pagoda was, but guess what? It's not there anymore so shut your pie holes. Chan's or bust. The Hunan beef makes me happy. read more

Used to eat here probably once a week when I went to college in Cape. It was perfect for a fulfilling meal that did not cost much at all. The staff was always extremely friendly and always got my drink before I ordered since I always had the same drink. My grandfather loved this place and I do too. It has a very peaceful atmosphere, and if I want Chinese when I am in Cape, I go to Chan's. read more

Today I wanted Chinese and decided to try Chan's. I ordered the double pork from the traditional menu. I was warned several times that it would be spicy. Let me tell you, it was delightfully spicy. It was flavorful and spicy. While the dish was mostly bacon, tofu, and peppers the sauce was great. I will be trying this place many more times. I may even try some of the traditional pig intestine dish they offer. read more

Best Chinese food in cape area! I always get sesame chicken meal and am never disappointed!

This is always my first choice when someone asks me to go out for some Chinese food! I've been going here so many years I've lost count. The specials are great, and the standard items will always have you asking for a to-go box! You don't have to hassle with the crowds and germs of a buffet line, and you can have an actual conversation without having to raise your voice because of the noise level...atmosphere is everything! I love trying something new each time I go, and I can seriously say that I have loved everything I have tried. My only advice is to go hungry and wear the stretchy pants!!! :-) read more

What is it about Cape Girardeau that attracts mediocre restaurants? Here's another one. Chan's serves Americanized Chinese cuisine with little seasoning, a lack of fresh ingredients, and zero originality. We're having a busy week so I stopped off for carryout for the family. We ordered beef fried rice, chicken lo mein, sesame chicken, sweet and sour chicken, crab Rangoon, and Springfield-style cashew chicken. Now, I'm from Springfield, so my expectations of how a Cape restaurant would prepare this dish were pretty low and Chan's did not surprise me. The chicken was overcooked and dry, there was very little oyster sauce, and the chicken appeared to be prepared in a type of tempura batter, not the kind of batter typical of Springfield-style cashew chicken. This dish was bland and disappointing. The sweet and sour chicken and sesame chicken were also prepared in a type of tempura batter. I'm guessing they prepare all of the chicken the same way and then let it sit until it's time to slap the various sauces on it. Both of these dishes were also terribly bland and dried out. The chicken lo mein and beef fried rice were also lacking in flavor. The won tons had a funny taste and were just not good. The only ingredient that would qualify as fresh was the chopped scallion on top of the awful cashew chicken. There were not fresh veggies in the fried rice or the lo mein. I'm not going back. read more

My favorite Chinese restaurant in this entire area... sweet and sour chicken, and ham fried rice.

the food I had was gross. the shrimp in lobster sauce was uneatable. the fried rice was a lump of brown rice. the fried shrimp in sweet and sour sauce was a medium shrimp with enough breading on it to make it look like a hot dog. read more

Absolutely loved everything we ordered today - shrimp rangoon, chicken wings, hot braised chicken, and the fried rice. Oh, the fried rice. Very tasty, almost as good as ones from Chinatown New York. Service was good, order was accurate and came quickly and the family was impressed with the overall experience. Thanks to CiCi and Kiki. Next time we will try items from the Chinese menu. read more

Best Chinese food - homemade not your typical everyday chinese, - excellent and very fast service, all at a ridiculously low price point. Highly recommend. read more

Although not a buffet, they have a great selection on their menu. Food is freshly prepared and always satisfying.

Service was good. Food was below average and smelled very bad. Maybe I caught them on a bad day. I wouldn't recommend this place.

Love Chan's. Ate their take out tonight. Food is authentic and fresh. I love the chicken teriyaki and wonton soup. Combinations come with rice, soup, and choice of egg roll or ragoon. Good value and good food. I'm a frequent customer. read more

The best Chinese place in town. They not only have the Americanized Chinese food but if you ask, you can get a traditional Chinese food menu too. Everything is fresh, I've never had a bad dish from Chan's. Fresh veggies, good quality meat, and AMAZING prices considering the portion size you get. A regular sized dinner lasts me three meals! (Even their smaller lunch combinations lasted at least two meals.) Their egg flower soup is the best I've ever had and their seafood dishes are all properly cleaned and taste fresh. The shrimp rangoon is unique and tasty... I could say more but this review has made me crave Chan's and that need is more important than finishing this review. read more

Stopped here for lunch on a road trip. The place was in a convenient location and clean and had quick service. The food was tasteless. The soups had a yellow hue. The egg rolls were doughy. Kung pao chicken had peanuts dumped over the chicken gravy and the fried rice lacked flavor. All in all left still hungry and craving good Chinese food. read more

This place sucks ... I heard good things but if you want real Chinese, you have to go to Chinatown or something :) The food is too greasy!

this is also my first choice when someone asks me go out. execllent food at good price！i love it！

Best egg rolls anywhere. Chicken fried rice is excellent. Never really had anything here that wasn't good.

I've eaten here twice and both times I couldn't eat half my plate because it just tasted bad. First time it was gagging me it tasted so bad, Egg Foo Young. Second time the fried rice tasted like smoke. I am guessing it was in a big steam cooker or something and the bottom was burnt and I got rice from the top. I always here about how people love this place. My wife disliked as well as my small children who are not picky eaters. Perhaps I just gotten some goofs from the cooks but I won't go back. read more

Best Chinese in town. They have an authentic Chinese menu if you ask. I like the eggplant and pork. Also, the egg stir fry is outstanding.

This is the most authentic Chinese food in the Cape area. Don't go if you're looking for an all you can eat buffet or a Mongolian BBQ. Service is fine. Atmosphere okay. Place is clean. The trick is to order off the "Chinese menu" where the really tasty food is located. You have to ask for it. Cumin Beef is great. The bowls are excellent. All the real food is on it. Don't be shy. They have all the cool serving dishes, too. read more
