China Cafe

We had the sweet and sour chicken lunch specials and used our $ 5
gift certificate and the bill was $ 7. The food is great, the staff is very friendly, and the portions are huge.

Crappy food, crappy service and even worse order accuracy. Do yourself a favor and go pretty much anywhere but there. Many other better options in the qc.

This place just made a bad day better. I’m currently stuck in Moline, IL. (It’s a long story so I won’t ramble on about it) The China Café just delivered me (a tired, frustrated and very hungry soul) my dinner… at the FREAKN Quad City International Airport! …Yes at the FREAKN Airport. That alone gets a star and a half the other 2 and a half are for the best Chicken Teriyaki Sticks that I probably have ever had in my life. I don’t know how to give a half star but I really give The China Café 4 and a half stars out of 5. Highly recommend the Chicken Teriyaki Sticks, try em if you get the chance!!!

Ordered takeout tonight and was favorably impressed.
Had two soups — Hot & Sour and House Special. The hot & sour is just average – nothing special. The House Special soup was quite tasty. Both chicken and shrimp with vegetables. Fresh and flavorful.
Entrees tried were Pepper Steak and Mongolian Beef. Both were very good. The pepper steak vegetables were fresh and not overcooked – nice light crunch to the peppers and onions. The Mongolian Beef had lots of tender beef – the ratio was almost too much, as I would have preferred more green onions! The beef was very tender with good flavor – almost a hint of a smokey, barbecue flavor. It was very mild – I would have preferred a little more bite.
This review is based on only one visit, but I’ll definitely return as this is better than what passes for Chinese around here.

My girlfriend and I went to this restaurant to order take out and we didn’t even get the chance to order. The hostess avoided us and was rude and unfriendly when we tried to place our order. We were appalled! No idea what the food tastes like, we didn’t stick around. Very poor customer service. Never again.

This place is so disappointing. I really like the one in Davenport, but the Moline version has some catching up to do, to say the least. Portions are huge, so if you want a lot of food for your dollar, there’s that. However, the food was, in my opinion, truly awful. I can honestly tell you that aside from the egg rolls that are quite good, we threw away 90% of our food after a bite or two of each dish. Yes, it’s that bad.
We got fried rice, Mongolian beef, and orange chicken, as well as egg rolls and pot stickers. The egg rolls were full and tasty, crispy and flavorful. Everything else was very close to inedible. Tough meat, gloppy flavorless fried rice, sticky sauces and greasy, greasy, greasy. My husband isn’t super picky, especially when he’s hungry, but he said, «throw this out» immediately after trying his dinner.
I was happy when they opened as they deliver and have an order online option. I hope they start serving actual food soon and that the reviews improve, or I suspect they won’t be in business long. I will never go back, as I’d rather get my junk Chinese at HyVee.

We have eaten dinner here twice and ordered online too, which is very convenient. We enjoyed or meals each time which is alway quick and hot. We like spicy food, so for us it could be spicier… But the flavor is great and we really like their fried rice.
Our only complaint was that the waiter/​waitress carry on pretty loud conversations all during your meal even while they walk away to check on tables… We learned more about their computer passwords and such than we cared to hear about! They need to keep their conversations private and limited as they are causing the customers to either give up their own conversation and listen or strain to hear each other… It’s all one large room! They were pleasant but probably new to waiting tables …
But… The food is worth returning for, we may just get it to go!
