I called in my order. Service was friendly and order was ready at the quoted time. Got home and couldn't believe how much food we got for the price. It tasted so good too! China Max will be our new go to! I ordered the 3 entree plate with fried rice, orange chicken, mushroom chicken, and mixed veggies. I had plenty for lunch the next day!
Sara Reed
This little hidden gem is the best chinese food around Zanesville in my opinion. Great food at great prices and you definitely get your money's worth plus some!
Angela Wine
Great food, an honest price with a lot of bang for your buck. It's a family run business and the family there is incredibly kind, generous, and honest. The service is fantastic and they are very friendly. One of my favorite restaurants in Zanesville! I highly recommend it.
George Smith
Such an amazing place! We love the food, the portions are big for the price and the people there are super nice! 10/10 recommend to everyone!!!

Carmen Taimanglo
we always go to China max when we're in town. we love their quick and friendly service. The woman behind the counter has a GREAT memory. Prices are fair. Their bourbon chicken and rice is fabulous and they have the BEST egg rolls we've ever eaten!! love it!
Augusta H.
I find it funny that the Daily special of burban chicken has not changed in the past couple years. Great thing I love it and it's all I get every time I stop through the mall. FYI if you are looking for more bang for your buck, always order it to go instead of dine in. You get more food for the same price.
Trenton Fletcher
The food quality is whats expected for being located in the mall but its decent and Reasonably priced. The Bourdon chicken is a great staple there. Nice, hard working folks. Family run and their children are always pitching in. Support them.
