Wan Fu Chinese Restaurant

The food is delicious, the portions are generous, and the service is personal. The owner, George, regularly walks around and chats with the guests and always has a sucker for the little kids. Their Crab Rangoon has a delicious green onion flavor to it and I just can't get enough of their fried rice. Definitely one of the best Chinese places in St. Louis!

I highly recommend the Chinese Tea at this place. They source their tea directly from China, and you can truly discern the quality compared to regular tea bags. While it might seem a bit pricey for an individual, it's the kind of tea experience that's worth the indulgence. Consider gathering your family for this delightful tea, as the shared experience makes the cost worthwhile. A must-try for tea enthusiasts!

This Chinese restaurant is a culinary gem. The Mongolian Beef is a symphony of savory and sweet perfection, with tender slices of beef that melt in your mouth. The Pad Thai noodles are a flavor explosion, expertly balancing textures and tastes in a delightful dance of freshness. A must-visit for anyone craving an authentic and memorable Chinese dining experience.

This was our first visit here since the restaurant was renovated. To our surprise, their food was surprisingly good. The restaurant is beautiful and the servers are very considerate even when they are busy.

I rarely see a Chinese food establishment with over 4 stars. This restaurant does and deserves it. The food was delicious, the service was attentive but not overly so and the atmosphere was fun. They were busy and we only saw two servers and the two owners, still nice service. We had the crab Rangoon, bean curd (tofu) vegetables and the fried rice. All delicious.

Edited 12/12/23: Sadly, I had to change my review. The restaurant is under new ownership and there were many changes made (as would be expected). They did some nice renovations inside and the new staff is very nice and attentive. However, the menu has changed considerably (looks like a few old menu items were kept). So we tried several things to get a better idea of the changes overall. First, I thought it was a nice touch to offer fruit infused water pitchers on each table. Unfortunately, the rest of the meal was not as impressive. Very, very, disappointing to find out that not only did the crab rangoon recipe change, but it changed so much they made them sweet now. It would have been nice if they at least offered a savory one as well since that was what the original one offered and was well known for. They did have a new addition of scallion pancakes that was good, but the other appetizers were what you would expect from any basic Chinese restaurant. For entrees, we tried the Black Pepper Chicken & Hibachi Chicken. The Black Pepper Chicken was good, but the Hibachi Chicken tasted like a mix of BBQ, teriyaki, and gravy. However, they do give you a lot of food with the Hibachi option (soup, salad, spring roll, edamame, & white or fried rice….fried rice was not good). Overall, the food was not bad, but it definitely was not what we had come to love and expect. Since we have to drive about 30 mins to get there, not sure if/how often we will be back since we have other Chinese takeouts near us with very similar food. Wow!! This food is AMAZING! If you like savory crab rangoon or have never tried crab rangoon, you MUST get an order (or 2). The entree portions are generous and the food came out very hot. I got a variation on the sesame chicken (ask for Yen Ching sesame chicken) that is not breaded and is absolutely mouthwatering. The restaurant has been short staffed (sadly like all businesses these days) so the owners are serving guests, bussing tables, and helping in the kitchen. This is now our favorite Chinese restaurant and we would recommend it to everyone!
