    Sichuan Spicy Noodle (Contains Peanuts)
    Robert B.

    We came for lunch on a Sunday around 2:30 and we surprised at the wait. About half an hour, and the place was packed! We had heard great things, so we decided to stay. Not the best hostess experience, as they made us enter our own info into their tablet, which wasn't on the correct screen, making it more confusing and difficult then it needed to be. Maybe a more efficient system could be used? The waiting area is also where the to go and tea orders are, which had some tables and a large tv playing shows to keep you entertained. When we got the text that our table was ready, we were seated quickly and got to be right next to the window I to the noodle making area! Fun to watch the process of them being made and cut. We tried a couple of different things, including the trio bao (the meat filled was our favorite), a tea egg (hard to peel but interesting taste if you have the patience) and two different dinner types. The mala soup bowls have a ton of options and allowed for us to try different add ins, while the Sichuan spicy noodle (hand it) were a very different dish! Everything was tasty and aside from 1 item being missed in a dish, came out perfect. When the error was found 2 different people came by to apologize and make sure it was taken off of the bill. Loved our visit and can't wait to take others here soon! If you get a chance, GO!

    Hand‑pulled noodles -- that's the heart of Corner 17, and watching them make those signature noodles by hand is genuinely mesmerizing. We were visiting WashU for a college tour, and afterward decided to wander around the Delmar Loop, where we stumbled upon Corner 17. Checking in is simple: you walk up to the front, give them your cellphone number and name, and they text you when it's your turn. Our wait was surprisingly quick -- about 15 minutes before we were seated. The tables were spotless, almost too spotless -- they had a faint chlorine smell, but honestly, that just made them feel extra clean. Once seated, we ordered their hand‑pulled beef stew noodles and beef tripe noodles, and both dishes were absolutely phenomenal. The texture of the noodles, the depth of the broth, the richness of the beef -- everything was on point. We also grabbed a few appetizers, and they were just as impressive. Overall, the experience was wonderful. The food is outstanding, the service is smooth, and watching the chefs actually pull and stretch noodles right in front of you is a highlight all on its own. We're already planning to come back.

    Three Cup Chicken
    Adam S.

    This was exactly what I needed in my life. Delicious, and I mean delicious Chinese food, walking distance from my hotel. Located in the Delmar Loop, there are a lot of good restaurants but I highly encourage you to check this spot out. While I dined in, it seems perfect for takeout too. The 'Three Cup Chicken' was a big time winner with crispy chicken thighs, cooked perfectly and very flavorful. We also tried the chili oil dumplings, and some sort of magical green tea drink. Service was good, vibes are good, and really it's a great spot. I feel like you could probably point anywhere on the menu and find something that sounds delicious, including their boba and other tea drinks. Go check this spot out!

    Pork bao
    Kisha F.

    Corner 17 is one of our family's favorite Chinese restaurant. It's typically very busy so I highly encourage joining the wait list. If you are waiting, you can order some Bubble Tea in their lobby area or you can wait and order at your table. We have tried their crab rangoon, chili wontons, chicken skewers, pork bao, gyoza, Black pepper chicken, Three cup chicken, Chicken stir-fried noodle, Hong Shao pork, and Deep fried garlic sauce pork rib. Our favorites of the apps are the chicken skewers and gyoza. My absolute favorite entree is the Black pepper chicken. I don't even like peppery foods but there is a mild sweetness to the dish that balances the pepper out. I have a hard time ordering any dish other than this one. My daughters' love the Three cup chicken and Hong Shao pork. My husband tried the deep fried ribs. He wanted a sauce on the side. He noticed another pork dish came with a sweet and spicy garlic sauce. They were kind enough to accommodate him with some of this sauce on the side. I know they are known for their noodles but the stir-fried noodles and crab rangoon were ok. They have a very extensive menu. Although we have our go to meals, I'm looking forward to stepping out of my comfort zone to try new things in the future.

    3 cup chicken
    Page N.

    I can't believe it took me so long to try this place! We ordered the crab Rangoon, wontons in chili oil and the pork bao buns for appetizers. The wontons were a huge hit for the 5 of us. I got the 3 cup chicken and it was so flavorful and saucy. The cucumber salad was very crisp and fresh. Huge portions for everything. I would definitely recommend joining the waitlist on Yelp beforehand so you don't have to wait as long. Our server was so nice and attentive. Only downfall is that not all our meals came out at the same time but we didn't mind too much. There is so much more on the menu to try. Their to go bags are top notch

    This is the place to be! Everything is 10/10. Plenty of parking. Service is excellent. Can be a wait for a table. Wontons in chili sauce is one of the best. Tender skin, delish filling, just the right amount. It's a bit spicy for sure. Black pepper chicken. Amazing flavor. My fav dish. Fried rice is so good! Simple dish but so tasty! Everything on the menu has so much flavor. Everything is fresh and delish. Great milk tea and boba. Highly recommend.

    The food at Corner 17 is always delicious and fresh. Their bubble tea is one of the best in the STL.. The staff are always pleasant and provide prompt service. The lime accent color gives the restaurant a calm ambience. The big window looking into the kitchen is fun to watch them making the noodles by hand!

    Jasmine M.

    ALWAYS a great experience at Corner 17!! I've been here so many times and tried so many different kinds of dishes and appetizers on their menu - everything's delicious! Today was the first time I tried dessert from Corner 17 (since I'm usually too full for dessert!) : we got the Mango Shaved Ice. So good!! The mangos are fresh and the shaved ice also has the flavor of mango, without tasting artificial. The popping bobas on the side are also a great touch. Service is also always quick and friendly. Would recommend to anyone who hasn't been here before yet!

    Kung Pao Chicken and rice
    David C.

    When you see the option to join the waitlist, you should take it; when you see the ETA, you should believe it. Corner 17 is a popular spot at lunch time, dinner time, and any time between. Simce we already found ourselves near the Loop, my wife and I decided to visit for the second time tonight. We're glad we did. As busy as it was, their system is efficient. There was a span of about 50 minutes from walking into the dining room and back out onto Delmar, with multiple water refills and check-ins along the way. Once you open the menu, time is replaced with a question: How can I decide what sounds best with so many options that sound delicious? We both struggled between three or four dishes, but soaked in the bright green walls and large window into the kitchen as the team hand-stretched noodles and our choice narrowed down to an order. We finally settled on an appetizer of crab rangoon along with Kung Pao chicken and sesame chicken for our entrees. The crab rangoons have a wonderful crispy wonton texture and balanced cream cheese filling that leans on the sweeter side without being too sweet. My main dish (Kung Pao chicken) featured a rich sauce coating that was slightly sweet and slightly savory, with a variety of subtle flavor notes and a pronounced kick of chili peppers at the end. The texture combo of marinated chicken and roasted peanuts paired very nicely with the soft, fluffy white rice served on the side. My desire to enjoy it again as a leftover this week was the only thing that kept me from eating the entire entree tonight. Corner 17 is worth the wait. Check it out if you're visiting STL or check it out again to explore more of their expansive menu - we definitely will.

    V11 Bok Choy With Garlic Sauce
    Jenelle B.

    Tonight's visit was our sixth or seventh to Corner 17. Every time we discover a new dish we love! Stir fried, hand shaved noodles were the star tonight. Amazing texture, fresh-made in-house, lightly sauced and served with cabbage and chicken. Our go-to sides to share are the bok choy and the sautéed green beans. The must do appetizer is the wontons in chili oil. Service is always prompt, but this place is hopping so be sure to get on the waitlist about 30 minutes before you arrive.

They are huge thick soft pieces with enough crispness on the outside. It's a good introduction to how seriously Chinese people take tofu and how in other countries they have a huge variety of tofu, vs the select few we have in the U.S. And I used to be partial to the spicy fried fish at cate zone, but chilispot has upgrade this dish a lot. It's perfectly crispy and hot!!! Even if you don't like fish, it's a great dish and also makes for great leftovers. I know the fried chicken is popular but I find the chicken pieces are too small. Even with two heavy eaters, we still have leftovers for another meal
