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.

One of my favorite places to go! My boyfriend and I go almost every Wednesday for the 1/2 off sushi, it is our favorite sushi place. I've tried their actual meals twice, cashew chicken, and the happy family meal. Both were very good! The owner is very friendly and always makes sure to greet us when we walk in. definitely is a must try!

Ate here on a Tuesday night. Place was only moderately busy, but got busier by the time we left. Seated immediately and, for the most part, received prompt service throughout the meal. Given the prices for the items (which aren't crazy, but what you would expect for a sit-down Chinese restaurant), you would expect the quality and quantity of the food to be better than your average Chinese take-out. Unfortunately, that is not the case. The hot and sour soup was plenty hot, but didn't taste particularly fresh. The egg rolls seemed to have been frozen, and the General (Tso's) Chicken was average. I asked for white meat (as the dark meat pieces always seem to have a questionable quality), but that was not an option. Basically, my search for quality Chinese fare in the Avon/Avon Lake area continues...

My husband and I went last night as I had been out all day and just didn't feel like cooking and we happened to be in the area. What a pleasant surprise, the restaurant is very nice and clean. It is definitely a step above most Chinese restaurants in the area. I ordered the sesame chicken and my husband ordered the cashew chicken. Both dishes were excellent and the presentation was very nicely done. I think I have found my go to Chinese restaurant.

This place is a diamond in the rough. I've lived in avon lake for 9 years and never ventured in. Reason: the outside facade does nothing for the place. But, the minute you open the door you enter a very classy restaurant. This is not your typical look and feel of a eat in, take out Chinese restaurant. In fact, it has the feel of an upscale sport bar vibe with a TV, and nice bar. The food was awesome. Ordered my standby: extra spicy Kung pao, chicken, vegetable egg role, and wonton soup. All were great. Really excited to try their sushi. A must go.

even tho this is a chain restaurant, this is actually pretty good asian food! i love the chicken pad thai.... a lot! the portions are huge and i believe they have 1/2 price sushi on weds nights. for a chain restaurant, not so shabby. i personally prefer to avoid chains like the plague and frequent the independently owned businesses, but if you are craving some asian dishes, and you are on the west side, you can check mark out. the restaurant has overwent a makeover from the original back in the early 2000's. i think there are other options that are a wee bit better, but will not completely rule out!

Having been to and loving the Mark Pi's in Columbus, IN, we decided to try this one in Avon Lake, OH. So glad we did! The restaurant is gorgeous, the staff was very attentive, and the food was delicious. We had such a lovely experience! We ordered the BBQ ribs, egg rolls, Kung Pao Scallops, and Duck Breast with almonds. Everything was delicious, and fresh. Also ordered their plumtini, which was tasty and refreshing. Loved the Kung Pao sauce, it was spicy, had a nice heat, so if you don't like spicy, ask them for not so spicy. They have a sushi chef, unfortunately we were so full from our meal that we weren't able to order the Friday night Sushi special. Hopefully, another time!!!

Whatever you do, don't come here accidentally on their half off sushi day (Wednesday). Even if you spend $250 on duck and drinks, the leftovers are NOT allowed to leave the premises and there are NO substitutions! NO EXCEPTION!!! Yet none of this is listed anywhere on the menu. You'd think that they'd rather people actually eat their food rather than just pay for it and throw it out. I'd actually rather just drive two exits up 90 to Vieng's anyway.

My husband and I prefer to eat at the bar when dining out, regardless of the caliber of restaurant. Last week, we decided we wanted a quiet chinese dinner with a decent glass of wine. We thought we'd try Mark Pi's for the first time, as it was close to our house and we didn't want to drive far. We entered and took a seat at the bar. We were greeted by the manager, who told us that we weren't allowed to eat at the bar. We could only drink at the bar and her reasoning was that she didn't have enough people to serve food at the bar. So, she had the ability to serve us cocktails there, just not dinner. I don't understand the logic so we gladly found another restaurant who would allow us to eat while we enjoyed a bottle of wine. We will not return to Mark Pi's.

This was a very poor experience for my girlfriend and I. There were flies swarming our heads. We were the only ones in the place and the service was slow (we were there for an hour and a half and ordered nothing special). The worst part of it was our waitress taking off her shoe and sock to show the owner some sort of foot problem she was having. About 2 minutes later, she was serving our food. I was cringing... it was rough... I will not return.

Let me first state that I am giving this restaurant four stars for carry-out only. I have not had the distinct pleasure of dining in that so many of you have described, and now I most certainly will NOT eat in the restaurant. I have ordered a variety of items from the restaurant and everything has been delicious (most recently combo lo mein). I am not a sushi expert by any means, but I have really liked everything I have tried. Compared to many Chinese carryout restaurants, I think this is better than most of the greasy options around town. They REALLY need to add descriptions to their carryout menus. For half-off sushi on Wednesdays, they need to advertise ON THE BANNER hanging out front that your must purchase a beverage.
(4)Jon S.
Good place for Chinese, sushi and Thai. Had the pad Thai and it was great. Good spice and flavor. Had some sushi which was also good. Atmosphere is very nice - not what you would expect from a Chinese restaurant. Good service And very attentive owners. Much different and better than other Mark Pi restaurants I've been to.
(4)Rick W.
I would go back for the moo sho pork. Very good. The California roll was good, pad Thai was just okay. Pot stickers were good, crab Rangoon was okay. We would go there again.

It takes a lot to get a 5 star rating from me, but as far as I am concerned, Mark Pi's is the best in my book when I need a Chinese food fix. I've tried lots of places in the area, but I keep coming back here because they are consistently good and don't disappoint. Dine-in experience: Comfortable, relaxed, casual, and unassuming - all qualities I like in a casual dining experience. The service was very good, even when the place was busy. We made a few special requests and they got it right each time. The prices are very reasonable - I like that. I only tried one of the sushi dishes because I'm not a big sushi connoisseur, but it tasted very good. The other dishes were tasty and not over-bearing. To go experience: The person on the phone was very professional and made sure they had everything right. The order was ready exactly when they said it would be and she even read everything back to me to make sure it was right. Dinner for 4 = $47. Did I say the prices were reasonable? Plus, there was enough left over for either a late night snack or a light lunch the next day. I have had food from here on 5 separate occasions (4 dine-in and 1 carry-out) and have had nothing but good experiences - that's why it gets 5 stars from me.

Great Chinese food and large portions! They're newly remodeled and it's beautiful inside! They have been serving sushi for a few months now and the prices are very reasonable. They have a sushi special and it's amazing! Can't beat the price! The owner is very friendly and appreciates your business.
(4)Andrea W.
The best cashew chicken Ive ever had. Egg rolls are very good and the sushi is great too. Service is fast and friendly. Prices are a little high and I wish they delivered but its the best in town.

We have eaten here dozens of times, but we will not go back. Our experiences with the owner and her stingy ways have forced us to conduct our own personal boycott, which is a shame, as this is the only Chinese restaurant in Avon Lake that is above the sad new standard of sub-mediocrity that has become Chinese takeout. We had an issue during a dinner one night where the owner simply would not accept the fact that I didn't like the taste of one of my sushi rolls -- going so far as to bring the raw fish from the sushi bar, asking me to smell it, and insisting it was fresh (which was not even my complaint, by the way). I was very kind in my complaint, but she would just not accept. She had the sushi chef make her the same roll, ate it, and told me she thought it was fine. (!!) As other reviews have stated below, the bottom line is that she's cheap, and her cheapness trumps friendliness. She has always been very friendly to my family, but my wife and I simply don't want to patronize a restaurant with such terrible customer relations.

It's a great place for sushi in the Avon/Avon Lake area. I love the waitresses, they are all so nice. It's my place to go on a bad day to lift my spirits :)
(4)Tiffany C.
Let me just start off with the pros. The inside of the restaurant is very nice - a different atmosphere for most chinese restaurants. Our server was very attentive and for the amount of food that you during lunch was a good price for a meal with rice. Cons: 1. We ordered half price sushi - after we ordered we were told that we had to buy a drink as well. I had already bought a drink, but my husband hadn't and was required to. The sushi itself tasted pretty good. My husband and I got 2 separate rolls (I can't remember the names). His roll was a full sushi rool (8 pieces). I had ordered a roll with tempura covering it and I got 4 pieces...and we couldn't see/taste any yellowfin tuna in the roll. We questioned the waiter about the tuna and the owner came over. She pointed out that there WAS tune in the roll above the avocado and cream cheese...we just couldn't see it. Wellllll the reason we couldn't really see it was because it was BARELY there! I'm talking about the amount of tuna in the roll was not comparable to the sushi I've had at any other asian restaurant. Half price sushi really isn't a good deal if you get half of a sushi roll with no rish in it... 2. I got the teryiaki chicken and my husband got the general tso's. Neither were impressive. Not horrible, but not great. We will keep on looking...

Awesome food! Very fresh and tasty!

I would happily have given this place a 4 star rating if it wasn't for the owner and bad service. If it wasn't for their great food I think they'd have closed a long time ago...we go there often for their half price sushi and love it but we do this understanding that the workers their seem miserable and the owner doesn't seem to like customers..especially children, obvious since they don't offer a kids menu. She seems annoyed if children even come into the place. She's yelled at people for wanting to move tables because they were cold or asking for a booth when she wants you at a table...it's bad. We've learned to ignore her but it's a horrible way to run a business.

I was recently at a friend's house in Avon Lake. My wife and I live on the East Side, and my wife and her best friend were out for a girls' night. So, her friend's husband and I had a man date, which involved keeping an eye on our dogs and their daughter. My friend asked if I wanted Chinese food, and it sounded great. He told me that there was this "great" place he's ordered from... better than all of the other noise out there. He pulled up the menu on his iPad and showed it to me, and I was excited to see that it was for Mark Pi's. We used to have a Mark Pi's in Mansfield where I grew up, and it went out of business a loooooong time ago. So, I missed it. I'll cut to the chase. I ordered the Hunan Chicken, and it was outstanding. I asked for it spicy because most of these restaurants are catering to white people who don't understand Asian levels of spicy. Hunan Chicken should come very spicy without having to ask, but it never does. Usually, I ask for it "very very very very spicy" and it comes out about half as spicy as a Wendy's Spicy Chicken Sandwich. Huge bummer. But I asked, and it came the perfect amount of spicy. This is a first for me! The chicken was tender without being mushy - it felt and tasted like actual chicken, not some kind of mechanically separated poultry by-product. The vegetables were crisp, and I didn't get a giant pile of Bok Choy to take up space, much to my delight. Broccoli, water chestnuts, baby corn, and carrots... and a few pea pods. All good stuff. The sauce was super flavorful in addition to being hot. There was a slow, steady burn that was with me all night, and it was just delightful. My buddy went to go pick up the food, and while it wasn't very far away from his house, he was still back remarkably fast. The prices were right, the food was absolutely wonderful, and I even got a little bit of nostalgia out of it. Easily the best Chinese food I've had in my 7 years in Cleveland.

Good lunch at a good price. Just a warning they are closed from 3-4 pm for staff meal and breaks

I admit I almost only ever go during Wednesday night for half-priced sushi. The service has always been good. We used to go to Fujiyamas for half-priced sushi every Friday night but they kept serving us not-so-fresh fish so we stopped going. I can say I haven't had anything like that happen so far at Mark Pi's. The sushi is well prepared and tasty, no funky colors or smells, and I haven't had any next-day woes if you know what I mean. The hostess (or is it owner?) is a character. She's a little weird but very friendly and she always makes sure we are having a great experience. She's got a dry, understated sense of humor, she'll crack you up if you pay attention. A few times we've been there on a slow night and were treated to free edamame before the meal and a neatly sliced orange afterward. Oh, and free wifi! Between the great service and the half-price sushi Wednesday, what's not to love.

After we finished dinner the owner came over to our table to refill our waters. When we told her were just having water she was shocked and said we needed to buy a pop with our half price sushi. I told her that we were nott informed of that by our waitress and we were finished so we did nott want the pops. The owner actually came back with the pops. The sushi was terrible and service was worse. There are may other places you can go for much better service and better sushi.

I have never had a dining experience worse than this. I promise I am not exaggerating. My husband and I just moved to the area and had been looking for a good Chinese restaurant. We found this one and immediately thought this would be a great hit. The restaurant appeared to had just been remodeled, and had a lovely dragon sushi bar and fish tank. We were excited to try the restaurant out. We were greeted promptly and our server was friendly. We ordered appetizers while we reviewed the dinner menu. My husband settled on sesame chicken and I was considering the crispy duck. The problem was there was no description of the crispy duck meal, so I had to ask our server for details. She told me it was breaded and deep fried duck. Sounded fine to me, so I ordered it. Our pot stickers and crab Rangoon arrived and were tasty. Our dinner came out just a few minutes later. The sesame chicken looked nice, but my duck was an issue the moment I laid eyes on it. It was presented as two duck legs and a chopped up duck body. The white plate was greasy all around the rim above and below. I took a bite of duck from the side of the plate and immediately regretted it. It was a mish mash of meat, skin bone and cartilage. No breading, and just a little warm. I needed to spit it out which was really embarrassing! Our server came back and asked how it was, and I told her I wasn't really sure, I didn't think it was what she described, but I would try some more. (I detest sending food back, it always makes me feel like I just don't know how to read a menu). I took one more bite from the middle of my plate. It was cold. Not room temperature, but out of the fridge cold. I literally let it fall out of my mouth. Our server came back and I explained to her that I would not eat it because it hadn't been cooked anytime recently. The owner came over and rather than apologizing for something obviously unacceptable, she argued with me and told me it was roast duck and not deep fried. Fine, I told her no matter how it was prepared, it was supposed to be hot. She actually then told me "everybody makes mistakes". I lost it. No one who works at a restaurant should make a mistake like that. The food had clearly been cooked at an other time, pulled out of the fridge when I ordered it and merely reheated (and not thoroughly even). We asked for the duck to be taken off our check, and for our check right away so we could leave immediately. We got more arguing at which point everyone had raised their voices. We couldn't get out of the restaurant fast enough, but the owner had to get the last word in. The whole experience was unbelievable. So sad, we really wanted to like this place, but I wouldn't even recommend it to someone I hated.

The Empire Roll is to die for, consistently! Other sushi offerings are good but not to the same level. The service is generally good at the wait staff level however when it is off the servers can be surly.
(3)John D.
Service is not consistent, but the food is the best Chinese cuisine you'll find in the Cleveland area.
(4)SeaElle R.
Great Chinese food prepared quickly!! I recommend dining in or take-out. It's newly decorated so give the new dining room a try.
