China Place - Des Moines

This is one of my favorite places to get take out after a long dayThe food is always ready super fast and is never cold.

Ordered delivery on Saturday nightThey said 45 minutes but I feel like it was 10.

From all of the other reviews by Yelpers I decided to try this 4 plus star rated place out. First I could smell burnt rice when I walked in.

Delivery was fast, portions are huge, best Chinese food we?ve had in a long times! Kudos!

The food here is not very desirable. I?m not a fan of the pay first at the counter and then bring my order. I wasn?t check on after my order was placed on my table. I asked for what their specialties are and I was given standard answers like sesamechicken. Not what I wanted to hear. I went with something safe, Mongolian beef lunch special with hot and sour soup and friedrice. The order came out very quickly which isn?t surprising given I was the only patron. It was a little too fast and had thetexture like it was microwaved. The taste matched. The hot and sour soup tasted like sweet tomato soup base from a can. Thefried rice lacked flavor. I wish it was a better experience overall. This is authentic to flavorless Americanized Chinesecuisine.
