“I had never tried southeast Asian cuisine. Even though I don’t know how they’re supposed to taste, I can tell the food is deliciously made!! It’s delicious as take out but it is even more amazing when you dine in and the food is piping “
“This was our first time here. It was very busy so we ate at the bar. What a treat! We had conversations with the two women behind the bar and learned a bit about Chinese alcohol and the Jasmine tea they serve. The food was wonderful. We had Wonton soup, hot and sour soup (the best I have ever had!), potstickers, Hunan beef, and garlic chicken. Everything came out of the kitchen quickly and hot! The food was plentiful and I had to pack most of my entree to go! The staff was very kind and attentive. What a wonderful dinner. I can't wait to come back to town to dine there again.Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant was accessible.“
“Had a great experience my first time here. Food was delicious, portions were huge, and the service was phenomenal!! Service is what really stood out to me. Also they were very fast and gave a complimentary cookie and fortune cookie with the check. Highly recommended ! Try the combination rice can't go wrong.“
“Probably the best Chow Fun I’ve had a in a long time. I had some last week and today I had to get some more. So good. Paired this with a mango smoothie. The Chow Fun I requested to be extra spicy with shrimp. Don’t miss this place. The fried rice is amazing as well. It’s as if they grill the rice or something. There’s a little char on it at times that makes it so addictive and delicious. Beware, one visit will not be enough. So darn good.“
“Too good....my all-time favorite restaurant...food is delicious..authentic Chinese flavor...but their chang's special spicy chicken was not at all spricy..it was more like orange or pineapple chicken..i tried their kung pao chicken before..that was much more better for those who loves spicy food..ambiance and the service was great..overall great experience..“

She said grandma why havnt we ordered this delicious food before ..lol I always get the Mongolian beef, egg rolls, crab Rangoon! Everthing is delicious!“

A 15% tip is automatically added to the check now, which is fine, but just as an FYI for everyone else.Recommended: Bak Kut Teh (Herbal Pork Rib Soup), Malaysian Fried Kway Teow, Black Pepper Udon with Beef, Hainanese Chicken Rice, Salted Fish Fried Rice, and their off-menu/secret Fried Tofu appetizer (with Bean Sprout Toppings and Peanut Sauce).Kid-friendliness: Plenty of high chairs available“

“Excellent service and sushi!! They served 22+ of us and were on top of it! Drinks, many different menu items and never missed a beat. Delicious sushi, sashimi and cooked items along great portion sizes. Awesome place and definitely returning!“
“First time visit for husband and I to Yen Yen on recommendation of friend. Our favorite Chinese restaurant here in Des Plaines closed last year and we are looking for new favorite place. Yen Yen will definitely be our place to go., We went at lunch time. The menu is extensive, but we ordered our usual favorites of Sweet Sour Chicken and Beef Chop Suey. Both dishes were absolutely delicious, with all the ingredients we love. Our server was friendly and helpful in navigating the menu pages. The seating area is pleasant. Everyone was extremely welcoming when we entered and also attentive when we left. We will certainly return, and with our family members also.“
“I’m always excited about their stir fry bar! I’ve been here a couple of times. Pre covid this place was amazing and one of my favorite spots. When they reopened after Covid, it was meh. There was no stir fry bar and the food was subpar.I’m glad I visited again, and they are absolutely back in their game and were delivering delicious food! Stirfry bar is back and the food was divine. I tried green curry and yellow curry as sauces with thick flat noodles with Shrimp and it was amazing! Would recommend trying green curry and Penang if you like Spicy.Place was packed on Saturday night, reserve ahead if you can.“
“Yesterday I ordered for the first time food from here , my experience was great Phone order was easy and fast Food was ready in 10 minutes Singapore chow mein fun was generous and delicious with a perfect balance of ingredients Also ordered combination fried rice and was also delicious and good quality Thank you again and I will love to come back Note : I ordered Singapore chow mein fun from another restaurant in barrigton called Chinese palace and was full of oil and they were cheap with the meat , and gave me heartburn that is the reason I drove farther and I'm happy with the food provided“
“This take out Chinese restaurant is so yummy. There dishes are freshly made. When they say spicy be careful you can have your spice level adjusted, just ask.Great crab ragoons and egg rolls. Kung pow is good and love the loew main.Friendly gentleman at front and answers phone.This place has been around for a long time for a reasonVery large portions.“
“20 February 2024 on vacation from MI. While staying in a hotel, less than 2 miles away, I had a taste for Chinese. I google, searched for some tasty authentic chinese food. Happy I came across Hoa-My. The food was surprisingly good. I had the dinner special shrimp in garlic sauce#12. I really liked the beef fried rice, very tasty. The owner was very friendly.“
“the food here is amazing!! they made an adjustment for me because i'm a vegetarian and made tofu in a dish served with meat. i also ordered a lot of things spicy and they did not fail! super quick & sweet people. i will be coming back“
“Great, fast dinner. Best dishes are Cantonese, but they make versions of Szechuan and Hunan specialties. Very good wonton soup, as you'd expect of their namesake. Did I mention fast. Carry out orders usually ready in 5-10 minutes. Nice to dine in or carry out.“
“Tonight was our first time dining at 8000 miles and to say we were impressed would be an understatement! The food was great and some of the best we've had in a long time! We had amazing service from Yan Yan! She was attentive and made great suggestions! We will be back! Highly recommend the sesame chicken and pineapple cashew fried rice!“
“Songs has very good food and their their atmosphere is just a small little Chinese restaurant that has a lot of pictures of food on the walls like many others nothing exceptional but the food is good and that's what's important and it looks cleanVegetarian options: I'm not a vegetarian but I do eat vegetarian dishes from time to time because of my health issues and they're very good you really don't need meat all the time to have a tasty filling mealParking: There are a lot of parking spots around because it there's not just one store it's like a strip area so there's plenty of parkingKid-friendliness: When you call or go in you're greeted very friendly and they're very nice to you and accommodating and they'll get your food out to you as soon as possible“
“My favorite Chinese restaurant closed a few years back and i didn't wanna try another place. My dad recommended this one to me and i tried it for the first time a couple months back and I CANT STOP ORDERING!! The food is delicious and you get your moneys worth for sure!! They were not in my delivery range and my coworkers and myself wanted it for lunch and we work in a hospital. They were so kind enough to deliver it to us. The lunch specials rock. Lots of food and you even have some for leftovers. Very fresh. 10/10“
“Damn fine restaurant, probably the best Chinese food in glenview. Highly recommend. I got crab rangoons, spring rolls, spicy calamari and the sweet and sour fish. Food was authentic and delicious. Will definitely come againVegetarian options: Lots of tofu options“
“LOVE LOVE LOVE all their dishes!! Always enjoyEd their satays, roti canai and yam pot. Great place to bring friends and family to savor delicious food. Serving time may be a bit slow but their offerings are worth waiting and worth the drive. They even have Thai entrees and tiramisu desserts.“
“This charming Chinese restaurant features a menu focused on Sichuan spicy cuisine, and it did not disappoint.To start, I ordered the Sichuan spicy wontons, which were packed with flavor and had just the right amount of heat. For the main course, I tried the Sichuan spicy chicken, and it was absolutely delicious. The chicken was tender, and the spicy sauce had a perfect balance of flavors.If you're a fan of Sichuan spicy food, I highly recommend visiting Asian Bistro. The food is authentic and flavorful, making it a must-try for anyone looking for a taste of traditional Chinese cuisine.“
“I got delivery (from delivery service, the restaurant doesn't deliver to des plaines) twice I love love the egg Foo young. Best I've had since moving to burbs 17 yr ago. Orange chicken very good Only complaint is the chix rice soup was chix,rice and about a spoon of broth. I was really needing the broth I'd like to visit the restaurant if I ever get that way w friends that drive“
“This restaurant has very good lunch specials. They are very extensive and include soup. Fried rice and spring rolls. I had Mongolian combo which had Chicken, beef and shrimp,It included Hot and Sour soup and fried rice. The good quality was very good. I definitely will be returning and looking forward to trying other menu items.“
“The people are nice and are working hard. I can tell. I stopped in on the way back from Chicago and I had the BEST avocado roll ever. The avocado was so fresh. I don't think you'll regret coming by when you need something easy to eat :)“
“New favorite Restaurant ?I delivered for Uber when I came across this gem. Staff super sweet, very busy at check out side - I love that for them. The air smells soooo good. I decided to grab my mom and we sat down an hour later. The food didn’t take too long to come out. When we seen the portions, we were shocked. Every single thing we ordered was delicious. Staff gave us extra small plates so Mom and I traded a little of our meats just yummmyyy. Went to the restroom very pretty, updated and clean. They played music videos definitely a vibe. Different kinds of seating in the dinning area. We sat at a booth. We grabbed to go plates, I for sure ate the rest for lunch the next day and will be going again pretty soon.Order:Fried Rice Plate with Green Pepper Steak comes with an egg roll.Side of Crab Rangoon w/sauceFried Rice Plate with Orange Chicken also comes with an egg roll.“
“Great food & service. Their food is so delicious. My 5-year-old ordered 3 dishes & ate by himself. Definitely, kids will love this place. The Mayo Seau Shrimp is my favorite.My son loves the Jaengban-Jjajang & ordered it as non spicy.“
“If you want the best food down in highland Park you should definitely try this place out honestly God I've been going here for years I just moved farther away so now I got to take a trip to get out here to to get the best Chinese food ever I love their combination rise or fried rice I love the sweet and sour chicken and I just like everything on the menu to be honest my family loves going here I always love going here again I just would like 2 hours away so I can't come here often but when I do The guide knows who the heck I am and ask about what's been happening besides that is the best service ever get they're quick fast and would recommend this to anybody and everybody“

“We've been a few times...today the service was slow and my lunch Mongolian Beef had almost 0 pieces of beef. Otherwise, food is of good quality...but after a couple visits it seems like something is sort of off.Kid-friendliness: No kids menu.“
“We've been coming here for several years with a break also for several years because something changed and the good wasn't good. The last 3 yrs, this place has been amazing! There aren't a lot of good Chinese places around here so I am ecstatic this place exists and we eat here almost every week. Its our only chinese take out place now. Noodle dishes are great, rice, egg foo young, salt & pepper chicken, chicken wings, pot stickers. Really everything. We constantly try new dishes and they have all been good. If you've been here once and didn't like it, I recommend you try them again. Food is always done quickly too.“
“I have been going to Chopstick Express for 8 years. The owner is very nice as he remembers his customers who frequently dine in, carry out, and have food delivered. The food is extremely fresh and always hot even if there is a wait time. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone as you want be disappointed.“
“we to this restaurant for my birthday and the food was great we liked it because they have sushi and Asian and Thai dishes my grandsons were with and they also had a kids menu.My husband had chicken fried rice , I had double fried noodles that had a very good sauce and my daughter sushi that she said was also fresh and very good . I had a drink with dinner the waitress recommended that was a mangoitini that was great , the good was very good the service was really good and we liked the look of the restaurant.I would definitely be eating there again a lot of different dishes to choose from and nice atmosphere.We also had appetizers that was calamari and crab Rangoon the calamari was very tender and the kids and adults enjoyed tge crab Rangoon.“
“Food was great. Ate on location with colleagues first. Pass the taste test. Talked to Yan. She was very friendly and helpful with my catering questions. Ordered catering for 80 people. Delivery was on time. Food received great review. It was more than enough to feed 80. Will cater again in the future.“
“There’s Not Too Many Good Suburb Chinese Take-Out Restaurants. This One Is Actually Pretty Good As Far As Pricing && Taste. I Ordered The L-08 Sweet and Sour Chicken Lunch Special with My Rice Fried Spicy && the Sweet n’ Sour Sauce Placed On The Side. The Portions Are A Good Size For All (Chicken, Rice, && Sauce). Everything Was Fresh n’ Hot. As Far As Customer Service, The Lady Who Answered My Call && Prepared My Order Upon Arrival Was Quiet Yet Pleasant. Everything In My Order Was Correct && Prepped The Way I Requested It. As For Atmosphere, It’s Very Clean && Quiet. You Can Only Here The Clicking n’ Clacking of The Pots && Pans. There is Only Seating Available To Wait For Your Food && No Options To Dine In. Which Is Okay Because I’d Still Order From Here Again.“
“Classic Chinese place in that it is a small storefront in a local strip mall. They do not deliver. The lady in charge was very nice to deal with and our order was ready as promised. We had Kung Pao and Sesame Chicken with a couple of egg rolls. Food was quite good and in "lunch for the next two days" quantity. We will be returning.It should also be noted that dine-in facilities are at an absolute minimum. Functionally, this is a take-out joint only. And that is okay.“
“Despite its small and minimal interior that may not be conducive to dining in. While the prices may be a tad higher compared to fast-food options like Panda Express, the authenticity of the cuisine makes it worth the expense. Although the service may not be exceptional, it's not necessarily a deterrent, especially if one anticipates it. Having visited twice now, I've found that the quality of the food remains consistently good, which speaks to the restaurant's commitment to delivering delicious dishes. While I wouldn't recommend dining in due to the limited interior, this restaurant is certainly worth considering for its authentic flavors and reliable quality. If you're in the mood for Chinese food that's a step above the usual fast-food fare, this place is a solid choice.“

“Really just a pickup or delivery place, has a dine in section of about 10 tables-booths but since covid dinning section seems sparse and uninviting. Fortunately delivery and pickup orders are ready and hot.Now the food...Really basic American Chinese fare. Egg rolls are plump and good, other appetizers are the usual suspects but done correctly. Entrees are again basic dishes if not inspiring are good. I like the fried rice, always seems moist with lots of meat. Vegetables dishes are good, nice selection of fresh veggies. So if you're new to the area or looking for some-pickup or delivery-standard American-Chinese food Lins mandarin just might fill your needs.Parking: Larger strip mall with many parking spaces.“
“My family highly recommends Bin Hai. Or favorites are the Tofu dishes and fried rice. Consistent and very tasty Chinese food. Fast and happy service by the owner. We've been going there for many years. It's grandma's favorite. We used to eat in, but they've been carry out or delivery since the 2020 pandemic.“
“This is korean style chinese restaurant. Its inside of mall so not recommended you to eat here when you dating with someone. ?But if you miss or want to try korean food i recommended here. ? foods are always great.If you are vegetarian there are only two options. Spicy noodle and mapo tofu.“
“We heard about this place from friends who said we shouldn’t be deterred by the reviews (which are dated). Our friends couldn’t have been more right - Excellent food at excellent prices. Delivery was faster than the quoted time and the food was so hot we needed to wait a few minutes. Definitely our “go to” Chinese place. Chow fun and moo shu pork are excellent. Great egg rolls too.“
“Delicious ? Chinese food. Hot n sour soup especially delish. Pot stickers,egg rolls take your pick all very good. For a main course twice cooked pork broccoli ? and beef are my favorites but all are very good!Carry out only and cash ? only. So call up and order today or “
“I was craving sesame balls, and I'm glad I tried this place!They serve 8 sesame balls for ~$5, an amazing price. Even better, the owner and staff make the sesame balls from scratch! They are extremely fresh, chewy, sweet, and nothing like I've tried from other places.Definitely will come again to try other menus!“
“The restaurant is amazing. The decor is very clean and tables are cleaned extremely well between clients. Paper coverings are replaced over the entire table. The food quality is unchanged from four months ago. The bathroom on the other hand. Oh do I regret visiting that bathroom. Dirty unflushed toilet and urinal and overflowing trash can. I told a staff member. If it's cleaned by the end of the visit I'll go back to full 5 rating.“
“The food was very good. Ordered sweet and sour chicken. The sauce was clearly a home made sweet and sour with fresh green pepper, tomato, and pineapple in it which was a nice addition. The chicken was also breaded there and some pieces were a little over cooked, but overall it was a decent cook on the majority of it. Very large portions. The woman at the counter is extremely friendly and eager to make sure you’re happy. Would recommend.“
“I ordered delivery, this is purely about the food.Tasted good, but the chicken was cooked far too long. Turned into tough stringy bits of meat or small balls of what felt like soggy drywall coated in a sauce softened breading.Tofu bits were fine, had a nice skin on them that I liked. Veggies were fine as well.“
“8/2023 5* First time here. Made it in time for a lunchtime special pricing. That was helpful. Very, very full portion. I was highly impressed by the portion size! Taste was pretty good. I enjoyed my meal and enough for a second lunch as well.Parking: Plenty of near by parking“
“Amazing food. Prices are good too. It could be tidier on the inside but overall it's good food. As of march 2023 there is still no dine in available since the pandemic but that does help the time for food to get to you be shorter. 100% recommend.“
“For local Chinese food that’s quality, affordable, and tasty, China Garden is my go to. Only drawback back are there inconsistent delivery times. I’ve found that it varies based on the day of the week, time, and tip amount. That notwithstanding, I thoroughly enjoy the variety of dishes you can order and how generous the portions are.“
