It was around 5PM.
Ordered Veggie Fried Rice, Veggie Chow Mein,
6 Veggie Egg Rolls. This was the worst
Chinese food I’ve ever tried to eat. None of the food had flavor. The rice was so dry, it had no seasoning, no oil was in it, I think it was microwaved. There was no way it was skillet fried! The chow mein looked like it had been reheated a dozen times. I was afraid to even eat it when I couldn’t even tell what the mush was.
The Egg Rolls were nothing but pieces of cabbage rolled and tasteless. The crust was the best part.
Every bit of it that cost way too much went in the garbage rather than make me sick. The cook need to quit.
Also I’m not sure what him and the lady were talking about, but I don’t need to understand Chinese to know that for a good 30 minutes she was arguing with him and very loudly!
I drove all the way from Bardstown to try the place. What a waste of my time and money.

I ordered the General Tso’s Chicken with a side of fried rice, and it was a great experience! The chicken was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a nice balance of sweet and spicy flavors in the sauce. It wasn’t overly sweet like you sometimes get with General Tso’s. The portion was generous, and the sauce was enough to coat all the chicken without being too heavy.
The fried rice was flavorful, with a nice mix of veggies, egg, and just the right amount of seasoning. It complemented the chicken well, not too oily, and with a good texture.
Overall, China 8 serves up a solid version of classic American-Chinese takeout. The prices were reasonable, and the service was fast and friendly. Great spot for a quick and tasty meal in Shepherdsville!

Update: Ordered takeout last night for dinner. Some of the items that I ordered were way too chewy and the orange chicken was strangly stringy. I’ve not changed the star rating since this was only one time so far. The next visit will determine the loss of a star.
Alrighty, I’ve eaten at several Chinese restaurants and this is a decent one. Nice menu variety, easy to order and food doesn’t take long. I believe they only offer takeout at the moment. It’s a small place so there isn’t much room to dine in anyways. All the tables and chairs are scattered around so it seems a little messy. Not the best Chinese food I’ve had but still pretty good. Excellent for a quick lunch or dinner takeout.

I eat a lot of Chinese food. This was just okay. Tasty enough on the front end, rice was dry and bland but the collection of vegetables, chicken and mushrooms was good, however, within an hour I had a bloated stomach and lots of indigestion, which would suggest heavy, heavy MSG usage. The egg roll was substandard, I didn’t finish it. It’s 4 hours later and I’m still very uncomfortable….just be warned… Good luck…

This has to be the worst sesame chicken I have ever had. Extremely dried out, no flavor, its like it was microwaved. Extremely disappointing.

I’ve ordered here many times before and the food was always great BUT, my last purchase was foul. I was eating it and discovered what looked like a roach leg!!! I’ve never been so disgusted! Now all I can think of is how many times all the other times I’ve eaten here could have possibly had bugs in it and if it’s cooked in my food then there much be a problem in the kitchen. This was in my shrimp fried rice.

Ordered online and was surprisingly delighted with the food. This is by far the best Chinese food I have had in a very long time. Thank you China 8 we will be ordering again from you when we are in town.

This place was just decent for me. The General Tso’s chicken was good but had a fishy taste to it. Not sure why. Service was good and friendly. Got the Rangoons but was not given sweet and sour sauce.
