Family owned and operated. Excellent service. Excellent food with an extensive menu. Everything is cooked fresh and each dish has it's own flavor, unlike many Chinese restaurants where all the dishes taste basically the same. They use only fresh green beans in their food. On our last visit, they told us that the beans they had gotten in were not very good, so they did not accept them and are not serving bean dishes until the fresh beans come in. It is that kind of care for the quality of the food they are serving that makes a difference. Restaurant is old school Chinese. Larger round tables have a lazy Susan in the center to facilitate family dining. Highly recommend!
2. China Garden

This is spacious restaurant at which our family frequently dines. They have a wide variety of Chinese dishes such as General's Chicken, Beef and Broccoli, Garlic Shrimp, Jalapeno Chicken, Crab Rangoon, Fried and White Rice, Egg Rolls, and Spring Rolls, Egg Drop Soup - the list goes on and on! There are also chicken nuggets, tater-tots, a salad bar with not only salad items, but also fresh and canned fruits (depending on the season), and desserts. Our last left us really impressed with the food quality - everything was fresh from the kitchen and piping hot; very delicious! Servers are good about refilling your beverage (we had water) without having to be asked repeatedly, which we appreciated. It is clean. Take-out is available for the buffet; there is not a menu from which to order of which I am aware.

New China Town is the definition of a simple, good and cheap local chinese restaurant. Located just off of Johnson Drive in Mission, KS, this is my go-to take-away Chinese establishment. The help is FAST, friendly and always accurate. Though I have never stayed and dined there, many folks do. The food is always hot, fresh and delicious. My favorite tends to be the Kung Pao chicken with brown rice, and the small serving is enough for two meals. If I am on the hungrier side, I opt for the combo and get crab rangoon or egg roll with it. Past the Kung Pao, I have tried several other dishes and am never disappointed.If you are looking for a P.F. Chang's type experience, this is not your place. However, if you are wanting Simple. Good. Cheap. Chinese food - stop on by!!!

The atmosphere is authentic and very warm and comfortable. The food was delicious and the portions are large. We were very pleased with our experience. This restaurant has been in downtown Overland Park for many, many years and never disappoints. We had forgotten how good it was until this last visit. We will definitely return.

hibachi was very plain tasting, with not much seasoning. We went online with one of the sites to check prices of this restaurant. Very surprised when we arrived and the menu was much higher, almost twice as much. This isn't very good when you are budgeting for a family and find out it's twice as high. Will be more careful in the future when checking menu prices online. My advice is beware, call in advance to get menu prices if this is a problem.
