Chen's Palace - Kirksville

Fantastic food as always and friendly staff. Definitely an underrated gem!

DINE IN ONLYPictures and details online shows buffet.It's got all your classic take out..Pretty gloomy in there. But again CARRY OUT

I’ve been eating their food since I was a a kid! They are very nice people and their food is always amazing. I definitely recommend choosing them for take home or delivery!

I'm from St. Louis and graduated from Truman in 2019. Haven't been back since. However, I literally just thought about their shredded pork eggplant and their salted pepper pork dish. 4 years later and I still think fondly about this place from time to time. If that isn't a testament to its quality then I don't know what is. By far the best food in Kirksville, let alone Chinese food, and it honestly beats out a lot of Chinese places from bigger cities. Just make sure you order from the Chinese menu (there's English on the menu, it's not just all Chinese) and not the American takeout menu.

Love this place. Favorite is the sesame tofu, lemon chicken, and wonton soup. Super fast service and friendly people running it. Flavorful— doesn't taste cheap, or like something just pulled from their freezer and microwaved 10 mins ago (like a lot of other food in this town).
