Rising Sun Of Mokena

This was our first time trying Rising Sun and I wasn't impressed. But to be fair some of it was probably my fault. People kept telling me how great the egg rolls were so I was excited to try them. They also mentioned that the egg rolls did have peanut butter in them, and I'm not a peanut butter fan. But I grew up making egg rolls with my mom, and those egg rolls had some peanut butter in them as a lot of egg roll recipes do. And I loved them. The peanut butter was/is a subtle underlying additional flavor. The egg rolls here at Rising Sun are very peanut butter forward. It's not an after thought. There's nothing subtle about it. So if you aren't a big peanut butter fan, you should probably stay away from those. We also tried other things on the menu and found that for us they were just ok. We normally go to Chen's in Tinley, so for now we'll stick with that.

Egg rolls the best I have ever had. Food sucks not good. Egg rolls are amazing fix the entrees!

This was my first time ordering from them. I had ordered Mongolian beef at a similar restaurant before, but I liked it more at this restaurant. First, the portion was big and you can tell they don’t skimp on the meat. Second, the staff were polite. Thank you. If I’m nearby again, I’ll order again. The only thing is, you forgot to include forks and spoons. I had my own, but if I didn’t have spare utensils, that would have been disappointing. Overall, I liked everything, and the restaurant’s atmosphere was nice too.

I always eat this sooooooooo good on my way out there now and I live n Chicago only Chinese food I’ll eat 10000/10

Absolute gem. I have been eating here for decades now. I used to go with my grandmother before she passed and I'm going now with my wife and kids. Best egg rolls in the area by a wide margin and everything else is far better than average. Cost is a little high compared to other places but the quantity of food is reflective of that.

Thank you for staying open Christmas Eve and thanks for feeding my wife and I with your fantastic Generals Tso chicken. You work so hard to get all the orders out to the customers. Great job!
Hardest working group of workers that I’ve seen. We had another great meal Christmas 2025. Thanks yet again!

This 5 star reviews isn’t only for the high quality food we received. It is also due to the incredibly thoughtful packaging for my to go order. 99.99999% of the time when you order a fried and sauced item ( sweet and sour pork, general tsos etc.) to go most likely by the time you get home, it’s no longer that crispy, fresh, sticky delicious item but a soggy mess. They have rectified that by packaging the sauce separately and leaving the container open with the fried chicken with holes in the bag to allow the heat to leave so the chicken doesn’t get soggy by steam. Absolutely brilliant!

Sweet and sour chicken and egg rolls all the way!! I always order extra chicken with a large order. The container is overflowing with chicken. I'll be the one counting down the 15 mins till it's ready. I like my food hot! I'm sitting in my car eating the Chinese chicken nuggets dipping them in the sweet and sour sauce. So delicious! If we are really hungry we also get the monogolian beef. I just like it not spicy. But if that's your thing I'm sure it is delicious. The meat melts in your mouth!

Best Chinese food ever. Big plates for the price. It is kind of expensive, but worth it. It was packed with flavor. The drinks were tasty, and strong. Fair price on drinks. Customer service was amazing, the lady was super sweet and very kind. Thank you for the great dinner.
