I usually don't write reviews for a place I visited weeks ago--but this one deserved it. China Olive absolutely earned this review. For me, a city can't claim a solid food scene without having that one inexpensive, go-to Chinese spot--and boyyy, China Olive did NOT disappoint. I stopped in for lunch with a co-worker, and honestly, it was some of the best Chinese food I've had in a while. I ordered the beef & broccoli lunch special, and everything was cooked perfectly--tender beef, fresh broccoli, and flavors that hit just right. You can tell they take pride in what they serve. Fair warning: the place gets pretty crowded during lunch, so get there early if you can. That said, it's 100% worth it. The food was so good, even the Pepsi tasted better OKC folks are lucky to have a spot like this. If you're reading this, show some love--like and follow for more real food reviews! read more

For Chinese fast food I was very pleased and pleasantly surprised at how nice this was. We got a few dishes all had good spices and hot and very fresh! The prices are really good, too. Appreciate the quality and will definitely be back! read more

Always fresh and consistently good. This is my go-to Chinese place. They also make the best hot pepper oil. When I want good Chinese, China Olive is the restaurant I will always choose. read more

The location and interior leave a lot to be desired but that's not why you come to China Olive. The food is consistently good and we've been coming here on and off since 2014 (we briefly moved out of state and the Chinese takeout in Colorado Springs left a lot to be desired) Favorite dishes include: Chicken Cashew Chicken & Mushroom Beef & Broccoli Dragon Meets Phoenix Kung Po Chicken General Tso We've enjoyed most of the appetizers too. I also like the option to have your food steamed with sauce on the side so it's healthier, and have done that a few times with the chicken/beef and broccoli/vegetables dishes. Still tastes good but better for you. The service has never been a problem except one time we ordered ahead via beyond menu (as we usually do and have done for years) and arrived at our pickup time and the younger girls working there had only just shown up to open late. There was no explanation or apology, and they seemed annoyed at our disappointment, and didn't seem to be in any hurry to start cooking, so we canceled the order. read more

We always enjoy our experience with China Olive. The food is also made right when you order it and our orders are always correct. Hot, fresh and flavorful food. The employees are always courteous and the restaurant is always clean. We've been coming here for years and we will continue to support this local restaurant. You should give them a try if you're in the area! read more

China Olive - Merry Christmas Eve-Eve dinner!! - Chinese Near Me - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

Great food, the best egg roll I've had in a very long time. Quick and friendly and no complaints about the value great portions.

The food was fresh and good I'm a over the road driver from Georgia and I love to find my go to spots in each state this is one of those

Fast Chinese food is everywhere in OKC, and China Olive came out on top out of the dozen that I've eaten at, which says a lot! Their fried rice isn't that weird yellow color that most mid-west Chinese places offer. And they don't skimp on the bbq pork; the pieces are nice and big. Shrimp dishes also have bigger shrimp than what is included in the fried rice, which is great. And their lo mein and egg foo young also taste great. The real star of the show for me is their fried chicken wings. They used to come with 5 full wing pieces (thigh and wing connected), but now they give you less, but they still taste amazing. And it's by far the best value for wing-for-buck in town. I've actually added my own hotsauce to the box/bag and shook it up to make my own hot wings. Nothing much else to say except that it's a very convenient distance from Tinker AFB, and they have made changes to their building to be more protective from Covid, which is great. If you guys have had trouble looking for a regular place to have Chinese, look no further. This place is better than any Chinese restaurant in Moore, SW OKC, or Midwest City! read more

Food was average. Employee was not friendly, and knew only limited English. Not real clean. I don't recommend this joint.

Best Chinese take-out food around. All of the other local Chinese buffets and Chinese take-out restaurants have sub par food compared to China Olive. I enjoy all of their chicken and beef options that I've tried so far. Their egg rolls are good. Not freshly made. The crab rangoon is very good and fresh. It's not like a crab Rangoon that I've had before because it has a sweet flavor but still very good. I recommend doing their lunch specials. Great prices. Great food. Convenient. What more could you want? The guy at the counter isn't very enthusiastic but don't let that stop you from placing an order. They make him work all day everyday. You'd be tired of that place too. read more

This is our go to for Chinese takeout. They are consistent and nice. Try the chicken on a stick. So good

I do not recommend this place. It was one of the worst Chinese takeout places I have ever tried. Let me tell you why. For starters the Fried rice was just white rice with some veggies and pork and maybe a packet of soy sauce thrown in. It definitely didn't taste nor look like fried rice. The Kung pow chicken was made with large pieces of breaded chicken with some cut up veggies and almost zero sauce added. I don't know maybe the breading soaked it up, not really sure. I've never had breaded kung pow chicken, Ever. The Moo Shu pork was mainly cabbage and onions. And it just tasted off. And for the finale the spring rolls are slimy inside it just wasn't the correct texture for a supposed crunchy spring roll. However the white rice and the crab Rangoon tasted ok I'd eat those again. read more

Great food and always still hot when I get home in Norman with it. Sesame Chicken and fried rice.

Excellent food and excellent service. Been eating here for years! Try the General Tso's chicken and the fried dumplings.

This is good Chinese food that is inexpensive. Lots if selection. Cooked to order so good to call it in. Great portions, it's a place worth repeating! read more

The food is always solid and fresh. Service is fast. Prices are reasonable. Can't complain. This is our go to for quick take away Chinese in this area of the city. read more

Pretty good for take out. It's not the best but it's ok. We sampled roast pork lo mein, chicken fried rice, steamed dumplings, egg Foo young, general tsos and pineapple chicken. read more

I used to order takeout on door dash from here before I moved too far away from them. It was so good!! I'll definitely eat here again if I'm ever in town. read more

courteous, fast, and delicious! got it to go, the sack has cardboard in the bottom to prevent spillage. the containers are high end and sealed tightly, generous portion size. my only complaint was my fortune cookie had no fortune, please tell me that's good luck..I'll be going back for sure. I recommend the C5 sweet and sour shrimp read more

Ordered the Szechuan Chicken lunch. The food was flavorful, but the sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste and not 'hot and spicy' as indicated in the menu. Probably won't return in the future. read more

This is my go to place for food when I don't have time to make it to the store. The service is quick and the food is pretty good. Beef and broccoli w/boneless spare ribs. read more

First Chinese place I've found that was actually good! Been here over a year, but everywhere else uses fake foods, basically. Defiantly my new go-to Chinese place. read more

Love the chicken lo mein and chicken and beef sticks. They are super fast and close to home!!

The food is really good here and the prices are very reasonable. I would recommend this place if you're looking for some good Chinese food!!! Not to mention the staff is polite and accurate. read more

I have used this place for Chinese take out for years! Never disappoints, always hot and fresh! I guess it helps that I live just around the corner. read more

The decor/ambience is not much to write about. It looks like every other Westernized Chinese restaurant out there. The saving grace is definitely the food. I have ordered pretty much the entire menu, and have never been disappointed with anything. The food is not amazing, but is super consistent. If you get a sesame chicken today, it will taste EXACTLY the same the next time you order it. Love the people who work up front. They are always working extremely hard, and act happy to see us every time. read more

This is your run of the mill fast food Chinese. Nothing special, but also nothing terribly bad. It's close to my house so I end up ordering from here pretty often. They always have my order ready by the time they said, and they've never messed it up. The staff are friendly and the place is clean. read more

I love this place. I eat here about once a week. I've moved around a lot and everywhere I move I always look for a go-to Chinese food place. This is my place for here. The food is awesome. The ingredients taste fresh and the meat isn't full of gristle and fat like a lot of Chinese places around here. They have good homemade hot mustard. The service is great and they always have my order done on time. The people are friendly. I highly recommend it! read more

Pretty much just awesome. Eat here almost every day. Get your Chinese food here because the other options aren't even options in comparison.

I love the food cook fresh this is my favorite place I went to Panda Express horrible nasty they cook good

Honestly, this is just a place with your "run of the mill" Americanized Chinese food. The two things that keep my husband and I as regular customers are the hot and sour soup, and the crab rangoon. We both agree their crab rangoon is the best we've had a take-out place ever. I agree that it is also very clean, and the staff is always friendly. If you're looking for cheap, good Chinese takeout... I'd recommend it. read more

Food tastes OK. Would have given them three stars but they use too much oil. Oil floats on top of the sauce. The hunt for good takeout continues. read more

Not a whole lot different here than any other other fast food Chinese joint in town. It seems my bill was usually a little higher for similar orders than the place right down the street. I don't know if there is a language barrier, but the last order I picked up -- I ordered one of the dishes NON-spicy for the little one. Once we got home, her food was spicy enough to make an adult cry. I could have brought it back up, had them recook it, and brought it back home. But by that time, though, my food would have been cold and my friend would have been done. I shared mine with her...the portions are very adequate. read more

I ordered the lunch special and their General's Chicken was OK but their Egg Drop Soup was disgusting! Sorry but I won't be a returning customer. read more

great service & they've taken great covid precautions. i wish they were open on mondays though :(

Pretty good, the standard Chinese take out place. However, their fried rice was below par.

This is one of the worst Chinese places I've ever eaten at. My husband and I only tried it because it was right down the street from our house. I love Hot and Sour soup, but theirs is not good at all! The broth is so thick, it's almost sickening to swallow! And it has no tangy kick to it which I consider a big factor in judging hot and sour soups. The egg roll was mediocre at best and had an awful after taste. Their sweet and sour sauce tasted like grease and water. I was horribly nauseous the rest of the evening after we 'somewhat' ate. If you want great Chinese go the extra few miles to Lemongrass on 119th. I'll never eat China Olive again. read more
