Illinois, United States Food Guide: 6 Asian food Must-Eat Restaurants & Street Food Stalls in East Saint Louis
Reviews on Asian food in East Saint Louis, Illinois, United States. East St. Louis is a city in St. Clair County, Illinois, across the Mississippi River from St. Louis, Missouri, in the Metro-East region of Southern Illinois. Once a bustling industrial center like many cities in the Rust Belt, East St. Louis has been severely affected by loss of jobs due to deindustrialization during the second half of the 20th century. In 1950, East St. Louis was the fourth largest city in Illinois when population peaked at 82,366. As of the 2010 census, the city had a population of 27,006, less than one-third of the 1950 census.

This little place always seems to hit the spot when my coworkers and I feel like sushi. The service is great, the food is always above par, fresh and full of flavor. Their deep fried cheese cake is amazing and probably the best slice in the STL.Iâll be back...

I was so excited and relieved to have found this restaurant. During my week-long visit to St. Louis, I was so disappointed in the food, but when I found Bamboo Bistro, I sighed a breath of relief. Fresh veggies, plenty of choices, and many healthy options, too! In my group, we had vegans and meat eaters who all enjoyed our dinner here. The stir fry was excellent. My only complaint was the waiter not writing our order down which always results in mistakes. When my food came out, I had the wrong type of rice which they quickly corrected. I wish I had found this place earlier in my trip because I would have gone there every night! Highly recommended.

Had a Groupon for $50 worth of food. We ordered sashimi, calamari, and chicken stir fry. The sashimi was beautifully presented. The calamari was lightly breaded in huge strips. It was served with a flavorful sauce. The stir fry was a large serving with udon noodles. All dishes were flavorful. Service was great and the manager came over to visit as well. We plan to return to try some other rolls in the future.

The food and atmosphere are great. Love that itâs open on Sunday, which is rare for the restaurants on this part of Washington Avenue. I had a couple of small plates, which were delicious and the service was prompt and friendly. Iâm looking forward to returning to Sen Thai on my next trip.

We appreciate food that differs from the standard, and this place is focused on doing just that. The fusion combinations are quite creative, and tasty. The Smoked Brisket, which is something I have frequently ordered elsewhere, had more smoke flavor than I have ever had; it was actually quite strong. I paired it with noodles and lime/ginger/peanut sauce. The mushroom dumplings, pot stickers elsewhere, were full flavored as well; as was the chopped vinaigrette salad. Beyond the full flavored food, we found the interior of the restaurant to be quite noisy; the surfaces are hard and sound carries.
