Corner 17

Amazing! There was a 40-minute wait, but let me say, it was well worth the wait. This is a family style, authentic Chinese restaurant. The best way to experience this in its fullest is with a group of 6 - 10 people. Everyone orders a dish or two to share with the group. They do have dishes that are appropriate for individuals, so don't feel like you have to have a large group. Everything pictured in this review was excellent! Our server was wonderful. She offered a couple of suggestions that were excellent choices based on other dishes we had ordered. This is the best place for authentic Chinese food that I have found thus far in the state of Missouri.

Restaurants that go above and beyond to provide the highest quality ingredients and handmade noodles are few and far between. This place is such a treat. We came here after driving past it so many times and I’m so glad that we finally did. Everything on the menu is fresh and homemade. Hand pulled noodles are such a game changer and are so hard to find locally. The Szechuan diced wings are my favorite item. Spicy and delicious. Packed full of immense flavor that keeps you wanting more and more. 9.1/10 clucks. My only qualm is the small bone fragments. They really make you slow down and chew your food extremely carefully or else you risk chipping a tooth or swallowing a sharp particle. This is forgivable since it’s so unbelievably complex and mesmerizingly tasty. The regular wings are fantastic as well. Not quite as much of a WOW factor but the garlic marinade is pleasant. These were some of the juiciest wings I’ve had in a very long time. 8.65/10 clucks. My girlfriends favorite dish out of everything she has tried so far are the ones incorporating tripe. She can’t get enough of it. She tried the flounder as well which was flaky, delicate, and oh-so tender. She was also beyond impressed by the hand made noodles. Watching them make it through the window as you done is such a nice addition to the atmosphere. Very strongly recommended this fine establishment if you want some authentic Chinese cuisine.

Corner 17 has an extensive menu with plenty of options to pick from whether you're a meat lover, vegetarian, or vegan. They have some of the best handmade noodles and you can see the staff make it right before you, which makes it quite the experience. The sauces are very flavorful and vibrant. The service is very quick and the portion sizes are perfect for two. Would highly recommend the Three Cup Chicken, Kung Pao Chicken when it comes to chicken dishes. In beef I would suggest the one with green onions and the one with garlic sauce. Incredible. Nothing like any Chinese dish you may have had at least in St Louis. At the same time, the beef stew was nothing like we anticipated. It was very watery, they say it's one of their spiciest dishes, but it was just chili oil mixed with a lot of water. Thankfully the staff was kind enough to replace it for us else it was a bummer of a dish.

The wonton with chili oil are the best I have ever had. I get my own order before dinner. All the boba teas and meals are insanely good as well. Everything I have had here is amazing.

I went here on a mid-July Sunday afternoon with friends and shared noodle soup, crab rangoons, and the sampler platter of bao. We came here because we wanted to try ramen at a few different restaurants around St. Louis and Corner 17 popped up on my Google search for ramen restaurants. Unfortunately, they don't serve ramen. Though they didn't have what we were looking for, we had the opportunity to try their noodle soup. It was quite flavorful and the chili sauce improved it even more. The place was packed and we had a brief wait time. We walked across the street to Vintage Vinyl while we waited, an ideal way to pass the time. Our server Maggie was more than excellent, catering to our specific needs, and it was fun to watch the noodles be made behind the glass.
