Max Orient

Growing up my best memories were my dad taking me to this Chinese restaurant in a small town in California. Now living in Springfield Missouri, this definitely hits home. That restaurant closed down after many amazing years and nothing felt the same since until this place. Beautiful, super clean, and so much flavorful! The egg rolls felt like I was a kid again at the small town restaurant. They really take their time and cherish their buisness and want people to love their food that they love creating. Definitely stop by and support this amazing oriental restaurant. Your taste buds won't regret it. Thank you for making me feel like a kid again. This was a delight and treasure. God bless you and your restaurant! 🙏😊❤️💝

Great service, fresh food, place was very clean and employees and owner were very nice. We will definitely be back.

Food is absolutely amazing. Not the average chicken nuggets with sauce poured over it but actually freshly made side dishes. And the best part is it's cheap as well and the owner is super friendly

When we got here I was too hungry to take pictures but now I kind of regret it for the review 😬 This place is new, recently just having a grand opening and it was delicious to say the least.
They were so happy to have us come in and order especially since the weather wasn’t too good. The store was completely empty when we showed up. The customer service was amazing, they spoke to us freely, let us try samples if we didn’t know what it was, and they gave recommendations.
Their serving sizes were huge and I love to eat so that’s a huge plus. All of the food was warm and made very well. The sauces on the chicken was similar to what I’ve tried in Japan while living there so it kind of gave me some nostalgia to those good old days.
When we ordered spring rolls they didn’t have as many as we wanted but they got our rolls ready in about 4 minutes and brought them to our table. They also gave us a free boba style smoothie, it’s the Avocado Smoothie in the picture, with little jello cubes inside and it’s the best smoothie I’ve ever had. I don’t like boba but this was an amazing smoothie.

Some things I would say they need to improve is that there was no doormat. At least there wasn’t when we came in and it’s a pretty snowy day today. We also brought my elderly grandmother so that should be addressed sooner rather than later to avoid accidents, the wet floor signs should be in addition to the doormat not a replacement.
Also they could think of better ways to serve the food. In the picture they gave the to go styrofoam trays even for dine in, maybe some trays and plates instead to accommodate for those eating in.
Overall the whole experience was very good and I loved this place! I will definitely be coming again.

This location is open! I have been so excited to come in and try it, and I was not disappointed! The customer service is just as outstanding and it always has been at the location in the mall, except now I can have a conversation with the staff without the loud sounds of the food court. The staff is incredibly sweet and helpful! They are trying out some new things on the menu. I was so pumped to see that I could get a California Roll with my usual combo! It's amazing! And the rest of the food is the same wonderful food you know and love from Max Orient. The staff mentioned to us that they will also be trying out bubble tea at this location. I can't wait to come in and try it!
If you love the location at the mall, (I know you do) you absolutely have to come try this location. You will fall in love all over again.
One last thing: get the shrimp tempura!!
