There are new owners and I feel like they definitely bring in great selections of Chinese fast food. Definitely better and cheaper than Panda Express. The portions they give are insane. Don’t listen to the past reviews because they are for the previous owners. The name has also changed to «Tasty King.»

We’ve been loyal customers for over 20 years. That’s nice that the new owners fixed up the place but ruined the food. My family and I, we don’t come here for the decorations, we come here for the food. The food is terrible now, and I don’t recommend this place to anyone any more.

I’m so disappointed by how much change the new owners have done. My family and I have been loyal customers for years. These new owners have done a trouble mistake to change uniqueness of the food. I hope they read some of these reviews and bring back the old China Gate.

The new business has changed, yes… However, I love the new recipes this Chinese Restaurant has now. Before, the chow mien was very salty and a strange color of brown. I wasn’t pleased with any of the food and didn’t come back until they redid the place a few months ago. This place doesn’t deserve negative reviews because they work hard to cook and prepare, just like all restaurants. No need for hate! Some people can’t accept change.(But change is hard, but it’s just a matter of getting used to.) The place is well kept and neat of the overall appearance. I personally love the rice and yellow chow mien and a side order of potatoes and beef. Keep up the good work! I will come back many times(more like a few months apart here and there. Not good to eat out.) :)

We’ve been loyal customers to China Gate for probably 20+ years, even back when they were on Atlantic next to El Superior in Cudahy. About 3 weeks ago we went in for a typical Friday«I don’t feel like cooking» dinner. I was taken aback at the new remodeling. Then I looked down at the food warmers and my 1st shock was the chow mein and how pale it looked. My 2nd shock was the«fried» rice and how pale that looked. 3rd shock was no more bbq pork or teriyaki chicken… though being such a loyal person(I’m a Gemini, it’s a given) I still bought it and took it home. I can’t believe I am saying this but, I was soooooo disappointed. There was no flavor to anything. My dad and I didn’t even finish half of our meals before we gave up. It is a sad sad day when you don’t have a fast food spot anymore. I’d stay away from China Gate, unless you are a fan of bland food.

I’m sad to say this but I am not coming back. This place is under new owners and the food is different. The reason why I was coming here was the orange chicken. This was the only place I loved orange chicken and i’m very sad it’s gone now. The place looks like Mc Donalds took over and the food looks reheated from plastic bags bought in bulk. I’m sorry china gate.

New owners! My family and I have been coming here for over 10 years and it’s so sad how everything has changed. This place lost 1.5 stars in my book. I don’t know why they kept the name China Gate considering how it’s not China Gate at all. The recipes are not the same and the prices have gone up a dollar. The food is mediocre and can’t be compared to the original recipes. They did remodel the place which looks nicer but I guess I’m on the hunt for another close fast Chinese food spot. *sigh* Orange chicken: 2.5 /5 Where’s the chicken? Sweet and sour pork: 3⁄5 It’s a little dry and hard. Beef and broccoli: 2⁄5 Ugh. One of my favorites is severely watered down. Chow mein: 3⁄5 Completely DIFFERENT. Lacks flavor. Typical chow mein.

I don’t know if I’m glad or sad! China Gate is not the same anymore. Yes it looks nicer remodeled but it seems as they remodeled they food as well. Their noodle are different now which were the best ever and their beef broccoli is totally different as well not to mention the orange chicken smh. Glad they remodeled sad that the food is not the same.

Returning back to this place today to find my favorite item has been discontinued. Only reason I traveled out that way was for the Hawaiian leg. Now that it’s gone I’m probably never returning.

Over the years the food quality has changed but then again they were all different chefs it’s not like they can make it a career. But I loved this place since I was a kid and saw the owners go through the years. This place has been open 31 years so that should tell you a whole lot for a small business. They are always nice and always hook it up with extra food not stingy. Every time I come here it brings back memories. Good food good owners.

BESTCHOWMEINEVER. I have yet to find another spot that compares. I live 20 miles away now so I havent been there in like 10 years but I had my sister bring me some chow mein recently and they have not changed their recipe. I remember when the place would have a line out the door and they would microwave your food as you paid for it HAHAHA probably to kill any bacteria growing on it. Super dirty looking place but the food is awesome. Gotta love hometown treasures like this for sure.

My family and I have been customers of this place for years. I’ve tried other Chinese restaurants but this place put a spell on me. The place itself is pretty small and it can get busy from time to time but the employees are pretty fast so that’s a plus. The most I’ve waited in line was probably 10mins if not less. In regards to their food, it’s delicious. I love that they have quite a selection of Chinese food. My plate usual consist of chow mein(I love that it doesn’t have all the extra veggies), broccoli beef(their broccoli is always crunchy and the beef is very tender and juicy), sometimes I may get orange chicken which is crunchy just how I like it. I either get fried rice or white rice, depends on the mood I’m in. Last but not least, like a fellow Unilocaler(Deisy) has stated below, they only take cash. A definite must try!
