Wow! This spot is such a hidden gem, I mean I loved every bite I had of my Beef Fun Mei! The food was out in under 10 minutes and I couldn't have been happier with my order. The restaurant was quaint and definitely had that classic Chinese spot look which is exactly what I was hoping for. Overall I'd say EAT HERE! Safe to say I'm going to eat my way around this menu. read more

China Tea House - Beef Fun mei - Chinese Near Me - Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania

Being new to any area, you always have to find a good place for chinese food, pizza and sushi. Now, I'm still in search of good sushi but this is my go to place for Chinese food. I have tried the general tso chicken, seaseme chicken, shrimp egg foo young, a few other dishes and at this point I've started just trying random menu items just because. 1. Everything I've tried has been amazing. 2. If you ask, they can make every dish spicy. 3. They are closed on Sundays, which sucks. 4. They offer a lunch buffet type of set up deal where you can get two items. 5. My only complaint is that they don't have chicken wings! 6. You will not find better Chinese food in the area read more

This is my go to place for asian cuisine so much so they know my order! A few weeks ago I was craving something different & when my husband went to pick it up, they recognized him but thought the order was wrong. Haha...it might just mean I'm a creature of habit, but who can't appreciate a business that remembers you? My meals are always hot & stuffed full of yummy delicious goodness. I get 2 or 3 meals out of every order so don't be concerned about the cost. The dollar on these meals stretches well. Everything is going up these days & we need to keep supporting our local businesses so come to China Tea House where you'll get a warm meal, a gracious welcome, & a business that will remember you as you return again & again. read more

Went for wonton soup, which was admittedly delicious. Unfortunately, I would not recommend ordering something from the hot bar out front. Some of the food appeared to have been sitting all day. read more

This location sits in a business Park in Mechanicsburg .the location is small and is easy to miss. The have a really nice menu for their small size. Food quality for this direct area is great.it is worth the drive on finding this place. They have a menu online. They do not have their own delivery. This is now my goto place when I'm going out for Chinese takeout. read more

I have been a customer of this Chinese Tea House (Mechanicsburg) for many years. I had brought a lot of friends to get orders from this restaurant. As a valued customer for so many years, I was not exempted from the rudeness and ill-mannered character of the same lady both in-person and over the phone. She definitely needs some good education on customer service. I don't think this restaurant DESERVES to be patronized. Good character and respect for customers should be the FIRST on their menu. Stay away from this lady because it will absolutely SPOIL your day. There are so many Chinese restaurant in the area! read more

Almost once a week, my wife and I get a craving for some Chinese food. We live on the west shore and have found this restaurant to have the best cooked entrees. The vegetables are fresh and properly cooked. The spicing is just right and can be adjusted to taste by request. The shrimp , chicken dishes taste wonderful , we don't eat pork or red meat so I can't comment on them. There is no in house seating so everything is takeout. Ordering can be by phone or on line with a very user friendly format that allows individual requests for every dish. The staff works hard. I like to support local businesses and this place gets my vote. read more

I was interested in this place because there are some items on the menu that you don't typically find on local Chinese restaurant menus: dim sum and Hong Kong style noodle soups. For dim sum I had the custard bun, which was soft and chewy on the outside with sweet filling. The sesame balls were great - A crispy sesame shell surrounding a chewy pastry ball and a sweet paste on the inside. The pork dumplings were nothing special, but good. My wife enjoyed her chicken and broccoli, which is comparable to what you find at most local Chinese places. The big disappointment for me was the beef stew noodle soup.The broth and noodles were fine, but several of the beef stew cubes were gristly and inedible. Finally, it's worth noting that even though the restaurant is called "China Tea House," they don't actually serve tea. As a matter of fact; they don't serve anything because the dining room is closed due to covid. read more

Disclaimer: This restaurant is currently called China Tea House I came here craving some amazing dim sum and left disappointed in that regard yet pretty satisfied with my other dish. The main reason I came here was for their dim sum but unfortunately we did not even finish half of our dimsum order as it tasted very old and freezerburned. Another reason is that the cook was sitting in the dining area eating when we arrived and was coughing pretty loud without covering his mouth and I did not see him wash his hands prior to starting our order (I could have missed it though) Dimsum; would not recommend coming here for dimsum as it is no where near fresh and did not satisfy my craving for dimsum. Tasted like very old frozen dumplings. This went for their shrimp dumplings, pork dumplings and also their pork shumai. General tso's chicken with chicken lomein and egg roll: their standard Chinese food was delicious! I've already been back just for this! Their General tso's chicken is crispy and the sauce is perfect. Their lomein is just as good! I'd recommend coming here for their rice dishes although I've only tried their General tso's but it was super good however I would NOT recommend coming here just for their dimsum. Sure while you are here order some dimsum as a tester to see how you like it but do not come here strictly for their dimsum as I am sure you'll be just as disappointed as I was. read more

This place is actually called China Tea House now, and there's some things you need to know: - It is the only place in Central PA with dim sum, but they do not serve tea. It's formatted as a takeout place and most people come here to pick up their order. - They do not deliver unless you're staying at the hotel nearby. - The dim sum tasted like it was made in-house, but frozen in advance and steamed when ordered. It tasted from okay to good. Recommendation: Come here if you're really craving dim sum but don't want to go to Philly or make it yourself. Take it home and make your own tea; I do not recommend eating there. read more

Your typical suburban Chinese American takeout. I will say their wonton soup was not the typical thick skin but rather the authentic traditional thin wonton wrapper and the filling was very good. General tso chicken wad coated with too much sauce that was too sweet. read more

Great food and service. Many dim sum. Really a take out place with little seating. Very nice lunch bar that is refilled so it is always fresh. Lunch price is very reasonable. read more

This is the only place I can find even remotely close to me (I live in York, Pa) that sells steamed shrimp dumplings which are one of my favorite things to eat. So I have come here a few times for them and they're great. I haven't tried anything else but them so I can only review one menu item but if that's what you're looking for, definitely give them a try :) read more

Awesome. Quick. A bunch of food that tasted great! Don't know what else to say because yelp wont let me leave without writing more down.

Good food and lacking customer service. Prices are ok we go once a month. Do not show up early They are pretty accurate with the timing.

Our family makes this spot a must-have at least once a month. We usually stick to the same thing each time but very delicious, hot, and great portions. The staff is extremely courteous and always makes it a pleasure to be around. While it's a little pricey, the food and portion size are definitely worth the price. read more

The lack of service began as we walked in the door. The lady behind the counter was rude. stopping us in the middle of our order to answer the phone. Then the food was awful. They could not even make a halfway decent egg drop or miso soup. (The Fried Rice was good however). We were told at first that we could not eat in the restaurant, but then were told it would be OK if we really want to. We elected to carry our food back to the hotel. read more

Stopped by today to get my one of my favorite Chinese dishes, the shredded chicken pan fried noodle. I was startled when I found out the signage has changed from "Asian Express" to "China Tea House". This is becoming a long, confusing story. Originally this place was Asian Express, an expansion to the original flagship location in Mechanicsburg called China Tea House. The Express was geared toward lunch and takeout orders. The Tea House was the main stake and had bigger menu and space big enough for small banquets. It even served dim sum in the weekends (hence the name "Tea House"). Then the lease for the Tea House expired and was not renewed for whatever reason, so China Tea House co-located with Asian Express through most of 2017. It was a period of chaos as they reused the menus from China Tea House while everything else (the Yelp account, the signage, etc.) said Asian Express. Now everything says China Tea House, but I am writing this Yelp review under Asian Express!!! Yeah, all this marketing confusion is not good for business. I hope the owner can make up his/her mind soon Anyway, the shredded chicken pan fried noodle I ordered did not disappoint. We also ordered Moo Shu Pork which came with 6 Chinese tortillas, hoisin sauce, and generous amount of proteins. It was very good. Today we somehow struck some luck as the owner gave us a complimentary order of sesame balls. All around we had a great experience today. I reiterate my opinion which I continue to preach to my friends and colleagues: For whatever reason, this remains the only Chinese restaurant in the area where you can order some authentic Cantonese dishes. Ask for the hard-cover menu and order the dishes that have Chinese writing next to them. You should also come during the weekend when they offer dim sum menus. If you simply order from their all English takeout menu, then this establishment would be just another run of the mill, hole in the wall Chinese takeout joint. read more

I went here back in 2017 or 2018 and the food was ok. The noodles we got tasted weird

This is a typical Chinese fast food restaurant for American taste. Another name as China Tea House. We were mislead by google and expected some Hong Kong style food or at least some traditional Chinese food........ read more

First off they're open on sunday. China tea house was my go to when I was in the mood for dim sum and was lazy to drive to philly. reading the reviews of AE i was afraid that the food has changed for the worst. But I was delightedly surprised when I ordered and everything was still the same. Wontons are still the same thin skin wontons, the dim sum was on point for china tea house. I have high expectations for dim sum as I only eat it in chinatown in LA/NYC and philly. Their dim sum isn't as good and big cities but for central PA it is about as good as it gets. read more

The best c f in the area and very courteous staff I would not think of ordering any place else.

Friends and I were having a great weekend together, decided to get some Chinese from here. It was okay the first night, except the Hunan sauce was red instead of the usual brown. Next day, wanted my leftovers so took a bite and felt a sharp pain in the back of my throat.. spit it out, turns out to be a piece of plastic shard.. DO NOT eat here unless you want to rip up your throat read more

A local favorite. Mei Fun and Hong Kong noodles are by far the best in the area. Short of traveling to Philly or New York, this is as good as it gets in the Harrisburg area. read more

This restaurant was booming with business during the quarantine but they were very commutative and honest about timing. The food was the freshest I've ever had! Remained hot until I got home and while eating it. It had good taste and they offer big portions. Definitely my new spot for Chinese food! read more

We are staying at Marriott Townsuites which is steps away and was hoping that the food here is acceptable enough. They surprised us. It is a very clean restaurant with a good variety of Chinese food. We ordered orange chicken, yang chow fried house, hot and sour soup and house special low mein (combination pork shrimp and chicken). All were excellent. We ate too quickly and was not able to take pictures. It's worth going. read more

Food good.person taking orders is rude and is pushy.watch your orders may get mixed up with someone elses

In town for a swim meet and this is a family favorite. The General Tso's chicken, vegetable lo mein and white rice were all excellent. The rest of the family had cashew chicken and broccoli in brown sauce. Portions were generous. Fortunately our hotel has a fridge and microwave. Will be back in November for certain. read more

Went here on a limb thinking maybe things got better. So I ordered the Hong Kong style wonton soup and again I found little bugs in my broth again, not sure why they don't know how to keep it clean by sifting them out or just keep a lid on their broth. I did actually enjoy my shrimp dumplings though. This is the third review I'm posting because they keep deleting my posts. This place is dirty and they are not very nice. read more

Merged with China Tea House. Think it is the same family. Tried it twice. It's mainly take-out with a few tables. I find it greasy, unhealthy and not very satisfying. Too bad. I thought China Tea House was pretty decent; not so much here. read more

It's my favorite for freshly prepared oriental food. The wonton soup uses the thin skin wontons. Broth is fabulous. Everything else we've had is absolutely delicious. They're also very nice to deal with. No yelling. read more

Had their takeout and it was very good. Authentic options and the food was hot and fresh. Very nice staff as well.

Authentic Cantonese food including dim sum can be ordered here. As a Chinese, I am happy to have found this restaurant in this area.

Stayed at the Marriott next door, ended up eating here twice. Great takeout Chinese, loved the hot and sour soup!
