We ordered take out. We always enjoy China Inn whether we eat in or take out.
Huge portions here, and not afraid to pair vegetables with their entrees to accent the main ingredient. Sauces are great too! Friendly atmosphere with complimentary service makes it worth the trip, but carryout is offered as well.
On Friday and Saturdays there is a live piano player and the atmosphere is great! Besides that, the food is so so good every time!
Quiet(easy to talk and hear) great food and fast service

Enjoyed the Friday Night Lemon Shrimp Special. Large hand-prepared and breaded shrimp with quality lemon sauce. Included soup, egg roll, won-ton, fried rice, almond cookie and fortune cookie. More than enough to eat.
They forgot mushrooms on my food and the watress did not check on us like she should.

We ordered the dinner for 2 - there was lots of food to take home - great portions. Also, loved the almond cookies!
Great Lemon Shrimp special on Friday night. Hand cleaned and breaded shrimp with all the trimmings.
Excellent service and hot and outstanding food. Egg drop soup was off the charts. Ron

Food is always good but really excellent yesterday. There was a lot of food to take home plus a to go order. Good value . Think this place is a hidden gem. I have never had to wait for a table at lunch and it is always nice and clean. Good service also.

Nice and quiet. Good service. Good food. They were very nice about tailoring the meal to help with food allergies. Large portions and very fresh. Quick service for lunch. Nice and clean restaurant with a cool fish tank.
We always enjoy dining at China Inn; however, the owner needs to add to her staff. The main dining room filled up shortly after we arrived and although our server was friendly & working hard to keep up, our wait time throughout the experience (ordering, the follow-up as well as check-out) was significantly slower than it should have been.
Service was fast and friendly. The food was great.
Great food. Great servic, and great music on the weekends.
Ate here on a Friday evening. Had the Lemon Shrimp special which included egg flower soup, egg roll, crab rangoon and fried rice in addition to the 12 large shrimp, all for $11.95. Very filling and quite delicious. Starting at 6:00 p.m., they have a singer who is quite entertaining and interactive with the patrons. Not a fancy facility, but pleasant for dining. Highly recommend.
Our waitress was so nice and attentive, refilling our drinks several times. The food is so hot & fresh. We love this place.
There isn't a better Chinese restaurant anywhere in the Midwest than China Inn in Wichita, KS.
The food was great, very fresh and cooked perfectly.
Great dinner special of Lemon Shrimp. Ample portion. Included soup, egg roll and crab rangoon. Shrimp is hand cleaned and breaded. Even had great entertainment with songs for all ages, many from the 50's and 60's.
We were seated in the middle of a birthday party of about 25 people. We could not hear the people talk at our table because coming from the party. the people were yelling from one end of the table to the other end.
Very good food (Lemon Shrimp). One meal was cold. Very attentive server.
The food is always delicious and freshly prepared. The service friendly. Another bonus is the nice touch of white cloth napkins. A great dining experience at a very reasonable price.
Food was great and the service was good as well.
one diner had a vegan dish and she said it best she had ever had. All the other diners were equally pleased with the fresh food and large portions.
Food & service was excellent as usual.
The food and the service are always excellent. You can count on it.
Entertainer is fantastic. Live musician
This is my fourth time dining and usually we have great efficient, accurate and friendly service. Pinky has been the only waitress we have had till tonight. Tonight my husband and I dined with our 8 and 4 year old. My oldest had 2 friends staying over which one had already had dinner. We purchased 4 adult meals. Our check had an extra charge of $4 which they said was for sharing our meals they said they gave us our rice in a larger bowl. We did not ask for anything extra. This is not a buffet I can give whom ever I want a bit or two of my meal. I could understand if this was a buffet. I told the waitress we were surprised since we have not been charged extra for anything in the past and not done anything differently. When I said we usually had Pinky when we came in she said “that’s why she is no longer with us”. Coming from the lady who didn’t bring lemon for our water after asking several times and upcharging as if this was a buffet and giving us supposedly more rice which we did not ask for. We only wanted what we ordered! Not impressed not likely to return. Food also came out slow and not together. Rice came late and husbands meal probably 5-7 minutes after some of the other food.
The food is second to none and the service is always attentive.
Very good food, nice atmosphere, excellent waitress!
Pretty good food, service good, (except server was continuously trying to clear away plates whether empty or not...quite annoying) More than likely will return... equiped with some "super glue" in tow....
Had a 15mth old with us and the waitress was very good to and with her.
Excellent food and drinks. Very reasonable priced. Live family/generations oriented music. Excellent wait staff. One of my favorite places to eat in Wichita.
WE LOVE CHINA INN!!! The food is ALWAYS top quality! Staff is friendly and attentive. On Friday and Saturday evenings there is a wonderful piano player. Restaurant is clean!
Food and service excellent as always. I almost hate to tell people about this hidden gem worrying that we won't be able to get in the next time.
Musician is fantastic
Musician is fantastic
great food and live music
great food and live music
excellent as always but seems to have been a price hike. Not sure, of course only taking the 15 dollar cert now makes a difference too.
Awesome food and staff. Be ready for great, fresh food.
Food was excellent. Service was good. Very quiet with a nice atmosphere. Price was reasonable.
The service was fast friendly and enjoyable.
We usually eat Chinese food at buffets because they are quick and everyone can try multiple items if they like. After eating at China Inn, we may never go back to the buffet. The food was delicious! The portions were generous. And the price was inexpensive before applying the certificate! It's a bit of a drive for our family (about 25 miles), but well worth it!
have a very good time music and food was great
Food is some of the best in Wichita and service is excellent!
Lovely clean and friendly atmosphere. Pinky was our waitress and she was very delightful and helpful with answering questions about our orders.
Great service! Best eggrolls in town!
it was nice clean and the service was great and so was the food
Good helping of food.
They always have several specials and regular menu is very good
The cashier/owner (?) was very nice and accommodating. She accepted Restaurant.com coupon without hesitating.
this is a family owned restaurant,they are very friendly and have great prices. the food is excellent, everything is prepared fresh when you order and they even have kids meals. if you want a nice quiet dining experience this is it.
I have been going to China Inn for years. The coupon was just an added bonus. The food has always been first quality.
Service is friendly and good. The crab ragoons are excellent.
Nice environment and awesome food?
It took a little while longer than it has in the past to get served.
Experienced / great waitress. Enjoy music on Friday nights Lots of menu choices
The server was pretty rude and the food was not very good.
Food was good. Service was great!!
Great food, excellent service.
Service was very slow, not enough waitresses, they were running their butts off. Food was excellent
Most of the food items were very tasty, however, two entree's were too spicy. If ANY amount of heat is in the dish, it should be communicated on the menu, or by the waitress. Made for a disappointing meal.
Excellent
The service was excellent as well as the food.
The quality of food is great. The staff is always very helpful.
Been there many times. Always friendly, always seated quickly, never had a meal that was less than perfect. Love this place.
Our service and the food were fantastic!
Food always delicious. Service with a smile.
Years ago we used to eat at China Inn as a family once a week. After the death of my mom, it was just too hard. Tonight it was as good as ever! We'll be going back more regularly!
Very good service.
Waitress was very cheerful and friendly. Did not feel rushed.
AWSOME! The most delicious Chinese food I've ever had the pleasure to experience. Great atmosphere and friendly, attentive staff. We will definately be regulars from now on.
Great service and food!

This is, without a doubt, the finest Chinese restaurant in the sate of Kansas. The food is second to none and always comes out of the kitchen displayed beautifully.
Awesome quiet atmosphere with fresh food that's second to none.
The hot and sour soup was too salty. The rest of the food was just okay.
Everyone's order was delicious there was more food than we could eat. Definitely will return.
Food is freshly prepared and hot. Also very quick to receive our order.
Amazing ambiance and service! Food is delicious!

Waitress was very attentive
The food is second to none. It's a great place to get a healthy meal that's full of flavor and walk out with a feeling that you've done something really good for your soul.
cute wait staff
Great food. Great service.
The waitress Kim was very rude. I was short six cents to the $15. amount and she could not have been any ruder..... I had no problem buying a drink which brought it over by couple dollars but her attitude to me was awful. If you are going to offer coupons why be so awful about it.
We were very pleased with everything about this restaurant and the food was excellent!
Good service, good food, nice atmosphere
The best Chinese food in Kansas for sure.
Great food, great service. I like that it's not too large and loud.
I really liked the chicken but really didn't care for the pork. There was plenty of food, more than I could eat.
Food was extremely fresh and tasty and the service was very good as well.
The food is second to none! Period.
The food was delicious.
You won't find a better, healthier meal within 200 miles of China Inn. Period.
A very enoyable meal with entertainment!
Food has been prepared fresh and hot
Always excellent service and the food is second to none. Quality. Quality. Quality.
Large food portions & tasty. Older decor & service little slow as there was one lady who probably was owner running around taking care of seating, orders, & serving.
The waitstaff was attentive and quick to refill our drinks and get anything we asked them for.The food arrived quickly and was excellent.
Cute restaurant with great food!
Excellent food, well prepared and presented. Very nice and well designed location that had great decor.
The Live Music was great!
The waiter was very conscientious. The food was plentiful and very good. The live music was a great touch.
We've never had a bad meal at China Inn. The service is always fast and friendly too!
The food was good and priced reasonable. It was also quite nice to have live entertainment too.
The quality and service in this restaurant are second to none. ANYWHERE. Wichita's best kept secret.
We love this place. We have been coming for years.
Service was great. Food was good. Only thing I'm concerned about is if my charge card is going to be charged for total bill & the revised bill with tip.
Awesome server Awesome food.
They were fairly busy, with only one wait staff besides the owner working in the dining area. Because of staffing, I would not say that we had the best service possible.
Had to wait over an hr for food.
Our server was absolutely wonderful! Not sure if the other gal was the owner, but she was very unfriendly and had a hateful look on her face the entire time, which was very unwelcoming.
Our greeter was a little stiff, but our waitress made up for it with her warm smile and quick service. Drinks were always full and the food was some of the best we have ever had. Will definitely be returning!
Server was first checking on us regularly (too quickly) then when we needed something, we could locate her. My main course was salty (Rainbow chicken); however, my husband enjoyed his triple crown.
The food is second to none.
