Chinese Cuisine
The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.
Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.
There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.

This is my favorite. What can I say? Nice portions, fresh, hot, delicious. Talk about eye candy. Chinese food should make your mouth water with the vibrant colors and Best China never fails in the regard. Their triple delight entree is a true delight! The staff is nice and the food is great. For a small restaurant, this is a remarkably powerful contender. The ambience is okay but it's not where you want to propose to your mate. If what you eat is more important than the walls and pictures, then you are at the perfect place!

There are a lot of Chinese restaurants of similar price and menu throughout the Iowa City area, but this is the best for lunch. Best China does not charge you an extra fee should you not exceed a specific dollar amount when using a card. A Crab Rangoon is included as part of the lunch. They're also sensitive to the working clientele, and had the food ready quickly (under 10 minutes ) with whole meal taking 25 minutes. I left feeling full, happy, and relaxed. I made it back to the office quickly and ready to have a good afternoon. If I didn't normally bring my lunch I would be here more often. Next time: the snap peas that came with my lunch were bursting with flavor. Should I return, I will definitely find a dish that highlights that ingredient or perhaps I will just ask for extra. I will be back again, hopefully sooner than later.

Every time I've gotten best china it was really good. I think they have a really good lunch deal where u can get fried/steam rice and a entry. I'm a person who loves buffet and would dominate it but the portion best china gives you is a fulfilling amount. Dinner can get pricey of course since it's dinner but I recommend lunch. They also do delivery and it doesn't take no more then 20 mins. I recommend any fried chicken plate like general Tao chicken and etc.

The worst Chinese I've ever had, it didn't taste fresh at all, and was way too expensive for takeout. You would be better off eating Hy-Vee Chinese across the street.

Horrible, ordered a combo with fried rice, egg roll, and crab Rangoon for 10 dollars and only received my combo with rice...called back and she said she charged me 10 dollars cause that's the minimum for delivery and tried charging me more for the rest of my food

Best China is the BEST New-York style Chinese food I've had in the Midwest, period, and I've been all around Chicago and half the world looking for it. Ordered in last night and it was prompt and extremely delicious. The dumpling sauce is exactly right - sweet, soy, scallions - and the dumplings were deliciously constructed. Also got the Yang Chow fried rice - GET IT. Best fried rice in the midwest. And lastly hot and spicy beef, which was just right in terms of spicy and the beef was good quality and not chewy. This is definitely my go-to Chinese place in town. I'm so happy I found one that I could cry!!

None of the places I grew up had much of a takeout culture, so the fact that you can get Chinese delivered to you after 9pm is still novel to me (even though this is a standard service in most parts of America and especially in a college town like Iowa City). It just never occurs to me get food delivered. I don't know if my good impression of best China has to do with being so super excited to have their fairly standard beef w broccoli and some very standard pork egg rolls magically appearing on the front doorstep after an evening out, but I'll go ahead and give it a solid recommendation. Very, very salty....make sure you have soda or beer on hand.

We had the Boneless Chicken. That was a mistake. Greasy fried chicken breast with thick dough over minimal vegetables at the bottom. We also had Seafood Delight. Was OK. No taste. They charge $1 extra for fried rice over steamed rice. Fried rice is extra yellow and too much grease. This is my first visit. I am sure they have some other entre that we might like. They also have ribs which is an American dish. May be they need to simplify their menu and stick to chinese food with the an eye for healthy food. Drop the deep fry crap and reduce the salt intake. Their portions are good.

Food is always good. Lunch specials are extremely affordable. Our favorite Chinese place in Iowa City by far.

Iowa City has a number of Chinese restaurants and they are mostly disappointing--Best China is better than the bunch. They have the usual menu, but the flavor is a cut above the rest. They have excellent vegetable lo mein (better than Taste of China, which was our previous favorite). I like their mongolian chicken and kung pao chicken, my hisband likes their hot and sour soup. It's not NYC Chinatown, but it is reasonable.

This is pretty much the same as all the other take-out chinese places (Taste of China, China Star, etc) except for two things. They have a CLEAN eat-in area and they have really good Moo Goo Gai Pan with a nice LIGHT (not greasy, heavy or brown) sauce. Also really fast delivery (one of the few that does deliver).
