China Cafe

i go to this restaurant very often. today, i got my water and when i went to take a sip out of it, there was a fly in the bottom of the cup. then, after getting no service the whole time we were there, we went up to get our checks. the girl practically threw the free fortune cookies at us then looked at her coworker “i need to go home. i’m pissed off.” again, love the restaurant but this behavior is unacceptable.

This place is amazin!! 🤤me and ma' husband always come here to get breakfast, lunch, dinner, and even dessert!!😍😍😍 🧁The food is excellent and super delicious 🥰😋😋😍🙏 I especially like the services; our favorite person there is the one cute little cashier/waiter, Lucia. ❤️ She is so adorable, I love her lil cute accent, and she always gets us our food so fast!! 😁😁😁🙌🙌 She is the best waiter there! I really do recommend y'all to go get food from here!!!! 🙏🙏☺️☺️☺️🙏🙏

The food is okay, but definitely not worth it for the money in my opinion. The fastest anyone ever answers is if it's 15 minutes until it says they close online, to tell you they're closed. All sauces are extremely sour. The chow mein isn't served with noodles, even though the translation for it is "fried noodles". Maybe that's on me for not asking, but I truly thought it was a given. Everything was pretty bland, with the exception of sour sauces. It's okay to go to for being the only Chinese in town, but I'd definitely make a drive if you can.

Ordered Buffalo chicken and got some hard fried chicken pieces. Cmon now I’ve been a loyal customer for 12 years smh

Delicious food and super duper excellent service!! 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 I like that one waiter, with the long hair uh 🧐🤔the name Lucia 🥰 She is always so sweet and kind 🥰😍 she always takes my orders and is very patient with me 😌😌😇😇😇☺️😊😊 The service is so great and the food is very yummy. 🤤😋😋😋😋😋I do recommend this place very much! 😁🙏🙏🙏🙏

I got the Beijing Beef and fried rice. It was the worst thing I have ever eaten in my life and I was homeless once! My Mom's friend had some chicken that was as hard as jerky and old! Service was awesome. This was my first time ever trying this place. I think I'll stick with Panda Express in Texarkana. Waste of money.

Usually don't write reviews but... this irritated me and others need to know. I've been a loyal customer for years and never had this happen. Called to place my families order at 7p and the waitress answered and cut me off quickly stating they we're not taking phone orders. I asked what time they closed... 830p and that they were busy. Ended up driving to Dfield to get something else after much debate and there were only 2 cars in the parking lot. Unacceptable way to treat customers. We would have waited but she refused to give me that option.

The food wasn't bad, just a little different but that's okay. What isn't okay is circling the building waiting on food. I totally understand a 15 min wait but the establishment really needs a better plan for their drive-through so it's not a merry-go-round and pinning the problem on the customers to continuously drive around each time a new car comes up. Maybe this doesn't happen often. Maybe I should have ordered ahead of time but some communication goes a long ways. Hopefully this message finds it's way to better this restaurant and not to just shoot down this message.

This place was pretty good for Chinese in Daingerfield. I had the Mandarin Chicken. It was very garlickly, but otherwise pretty decent. Could have used some vegetables in the stir fry. I wish their combos came with soup instead of sweet and sour chicken, but it is what it is, so I ordered an egg roll. The lo mein plate was huge.

On a cold night I had hot soup and chicken stir-fry. The veggies were fresh and well seasoned without being too salty and I enjoyed the meal and friendly waitress.

Decent food, but prices increase often. High dollar for mid-grade food. They use rice for most dishes when noodles are more appropriate.

I ordered the low mein chicken and I regret my decision. The food was bland and unseasoned, I didn't even want to eat it at all. Terrible food quality.

Reliably good food and would be much higher star rating if you could count on them to be open They have plenty of tables but ir seems if they "get busy" , they randomlu close. Sitting in dining room only 5 out of 20 tables occupied then the owner walked over to the front door and locked it yet left the "open" sign on above the door. We have commented on why they leave the windows blacked out with blinds in the evening because it makes it appear they are closed ar night. Now I know. They came look open with guests and randomly close at 7:17pm (outside of posted hours) whenever they want it guests can see inside. This isn't the first time we have seen this behavior. We have tried to call in orders during posted hours and they were closed. This is really bad business. Otherwise it's a gem in a town where only fast food is available, with the notable exception is the coffee shop downtown (Mug shots ) that actually serves lunch and dinner.

Decent food. Used to be somewhat affordable, but have gone up 4-5 times in the last year. A few Egg rolls and a coke costs about $10 now before tip.

Staple restaurant in Daingerfield with super sweet employees/owners!

China Cafe is located in my hometown and one of the few places to eat in our small town. I can vouch for the food - it's so good. The food is made from scratch and so are all of the sauces, everyday. The food is fresh, delicious and the price doesn't break the bank. A few of my personal fave dishes are House Fried Rice (substitute shrimp for pork), Shrimp Lomein, Seaseme Chicken, Triple Fragrance, and their egg rolls.

All of the windows are tinted and/or covered which makes the place seem really closed in, but the place itself is clean with friendly staff. Egg Drop soup is good, fairly plain, but comes in a good size bowl (not a tiny cup) for a buck fifty. Entree came out within minutes and I could hear them cooking it after I ordered. Entree served on a Styrofoam plate with plastic cutlery a little flimsy, but soup came with a metal spoon in a ceramic bowl - go figure. There is an outside seating area in front, but no tables or chairs. Combo meals come with rice, egg roll, and sweet and sour chicken - nice touch, and good tasting. Nothing fancy or amazingly spectacular, but better than most small town Chinese restaurants. I was driving through the area and found this in a list of restaurants - definitely worth a visit if you're jonesing for some Chinese food in the Avinger to Daingerfield area. I would definitely go back!

Great Oriental food prepared by the owners Bo and his wife Ging from Hong Kong. They have owned this business 20+ years. I recommend Moo Goo Gai Pan, my favorite. Combo includes fried chicken, fried rice and egg roll.

China Cafe is an amazing Chinese restaurant. They make all of their food from fresh ingredients that makes their food fresh, and great. I've tried so many things on their menu from fried rice, lo mein, and the chicken dishes. You can't go wrong with anything, my personal favorite is the house friend Rice.

This place is about as low class as a restaurant could be. Throw away dishes and glasses. Food is very bland and not much of it. The prices are way overpriced. I wish Daingerfield could get one decent place to eat.

The take out food was bad. The chicken fried rice was a very dark brown and looked left over from hours before. No flavor except black pepper. I was told it was suppose to be that way due to being made with soy sauce. But there was no salt flavor only black pepper flavor. I thought someone dumped a bottle of black pepper in it. The pork lo mien was also without flavor. The only half way good dish out of the entire order was the chicken lo mien. But it also had no flavor either. At least the chicken was moist. The won tons were fried dark brown and very hard. We have had lunch there several times since moving to Daingerfield. The lunches were good but this dinner was bad. Do not think we will ever eat there again. Monitte Hull

Good God, I never knew Chinese food could be so bad!! Daughter got the Teriyaki Chicken that was, I swear, deep fried. Dry without a smidgen of sauce. I made the mistake of ordering the beef Egg Foo Yong. Three hockey pucks that may have been eggs at one time, covered in copious amounts of thick, brown goop. We literally ate about three bites and packed the rest to feed the dogs. But on second thought, I don't hate my dogs that much. Stay VERY FAR AWAY.

We love it! The food is fresh cooked to order. I've had several things off the menu and all of them are great. Service is always good as well. The egg rolls, teriyaki chicken and pepper steak are my favorites. I wish there were hours posted online so I know when they are open. I'd probably go more often!

Crsppy place. Sucky food, who ever owns this place is super wealthy,it onlybOpens) when ever this rich. oriental Princesses hours. Close Monday,open wesday. Close Friday. Open next Tuesday. So check.,lol. Call or drive by,,I don't see how the poor workers made it. Working at a Whim. & its a shame too. B Cos DaingerField is sort of dying. No,places to eat

This is not a buffet restaurant, but Chinese cafes don't have to be buffet-style to be good. The food here is great and the menu has a very large variety. The only problem with the China Cafe is the paper plates and plasticware. Really good food should be served on real dishes and flatware. Other than that, the quality of the food, the decorations, the speed of service, and the friendliness of the staff are all great.

I have eaten here several times. Helpings are large. Food has always been delicious. Just wish they served fried tempura veggies. Staff are very nice and attentive and place is clean. Never many cars there but that's because alot of folks call in orders to take home.

This place is pretty awesome. It's like a Chinese version of Tex-Mex. It's Chinese food for small town Texas, and we like it like that! Their chicken chow mein was my favorite when they were in their old location, but somehow it seems that when they moved, they forgot how to make it delicious. It's still pretty decent. I'm just not a fan of the goopy sauce it's in, it used to be much drier. Their sweet and sour chicken is now my dish of choice. Soooooo goooooood. Their sesame chicken is also very good. I wish they would upgrade to real plates and cups. They have a beautiful new building, and tacky styrofoam plates and plastic forks. It's usually freezing cold in here, so bring a jacket.

Excellent food and service. Highly recommended! ! They have been in business for well over 10 years and if you dine there, you'll see why.

Great service but the food is very bland. And they serve on paper plates. I have been here several times because it's the only Chinese food around, and I love Chinese food....so it's like sex and pizza, even when it's bad it's still kinda good.

I have been eating deliciously fresh authentic Chinese food here for all of the years Bo and Jing have been in Daingerfield (over 13 ). My favorite item on the menu is Shrimp with Chinese vegetables, combo meal with egg roll, steamed rice. I also love the Chicken soup with noodles! Big chunks of white meat, chicken broth and green onions-served with fried noodles. Simply soothing and amazing how good it makes me feel. Everyone who works there is friendly.. I especially like Jami to wait on me. She knows just what I order. It's nice to be a regular customer there. I highly recommend eating there.

I'm a regular customer that orders the same food. "Chicken Curry which is C15." And I enjoy the food very much. But the down side to their cafe is that they open and close whenever they want to. And my family would drive there just to come eat the food and it turns out they're not open. And they keep changing the cost of the food and sauces such as rooster sauce which I think is a RIP OFF. One day we have to pay for sauce the next not? What??? And they don't use hair nets and I find hair in my food. I wouldn't be going there if I loved their Chicken Curry so much. That's the ONLY reason I go there.

This is the best place to eat ever! Good service nice worker's. Marilyn and Kayla are the best waitresses by far.

I've eaten here several times with no problem but today I have a big problem. The drive thru is open but you get in line, place your order and if there is someone else in line you travel to the back of the line so all orders are taken. Recipe for disaster. I ended up having to make the trip twice but finally got my order. When I got home half the order was missing. I immediately called the café and the lady I spoke to asked me if I was sure the rest of the order was in the bag. Well DUH - I know when half is missing. She then turned the phone over to the owner/chef and he asked me if I was sure only half of my order was in the bag. He then proceeded to tell me that the lady who bagged the order was sure she included everything in my bag. He told me this three times and I asked him if he thought I was lying. He told me he didn't know and didn't know what to do. Well I do. There are too many other places that need support during this time and I'm trying to touch base with all of them. This café will be dropped from the list and all I can tell you is be very careful when you do the drive thru musical chair game they have in place.

Good service but average food. Some of the food was overcooked. Not great but it is Daingerfield.
