“Fried shrimp jianbing was a delectable combination of so many textures and flavors wrapped up in a freshly griddled crepe. The textural contrast between the shatteringly crispy wonton sheet and the soft, chewy crepe was downright addictive. Every bite was flavorful: smoky, savory, slightly sweet, a little spicy, and wildly satisfying. It's the comfort of street food in one messy, glorious handful.“

“love the dine in experience...Nuff said“

“Best dumplings I’ve ever tasted!“

“Taco Verde is hands down one of our favorite spots for amazing halal tacos! The quality and flavor are consistently outstanding. We absolutely love their Birria Tacos — perfectly seasoned, tender, and packed with rich, authentic flavor.

Their Birria Pizza Tacos are a must-try as well. Such a creative twist, loaded with flavor and cooked to perfection. Every bite is satisfying.

What really makes the experience even better is their hospitality. The staff is incredibly welcoming and always happy to provide extra consume upon request without hesitation. Great service, incredible taste, and a fantastic atmosphere. Highly recommend Taco Verde!“

“Very friendly atmosphere on top of their great food.“

“Delicious food and fast delivery! I've had food from Wonder Chop many times, pick up and delivery. It's always been hot and delicious. The staff has been welcoming, friendly, and my order is correct. Love this place!“

“Our favorite Chinese food restaurant in Chicago. Staff is friendly, food is delicious no matter what we get. Some of our favorites are the Wash Sun Chicken Wings, Noodle platter, Ma Po Tofu - but honestly anything is delicious from here.“

“Very good Chinese food 🍱 best in the neighborhood:)“

“The food is always solid, poIite staff, pretty fast outside of lunch/dinner hour. If you are looking for a recommendation, you can't go wrong with the basics: chicken fried rice, orange chicken, egg foo young, or wonton soup. Items I also recommend: Mongolian beef or salt and pepper shrimp.

I eat there so frequently I felt it's time I owed them the rating they deserve.“

“Been going here for over 45 years and never had one bad meal. The remodeled restaurant is fantastic and very comfortable.“

“I ordered from Rose's for the 1st time today. Absolutely delicious food! My ordered was delivered quickly and was piping hot I highly recommend Rose's 🌹“

“I have been coming here twice a week for 6 months. Their General Tso's is my go-to order.
Everything is always super fresh and remarkably consistent. Their ready times are spot on! Your order is ready when you want it to be! I don't like ordering for a specific time and it be ready wayy early or take too long after.
They have competitive pricing, respectable portions, and great flavor.“

“10/10

Be mindful that they DO THEIR OWN delivery service but it is processed through GrubHub for online orders

Lunch and dinner specials are legit

Delivery is always on time or better than anticipated! Hot foods are delivered still HOT and cold drinks are still cold fridge temps 👌“

“Jjajangmyeon blacker than your ex's heart.

Tangsuyuk with a crunch that shatters like your heart from that same ex.

I'm really just heart broken knowing it's kind of a trek for me when I'm in Chicago becuase as good as the public transpo is in Chicago I'm in Lakeview and getting to Albany Park takes a while.

The outside looks like a Chinese Bodega in Queens NY, but the inside looks like it's been family owned and operated for decades, which it has, that sort of authenticity can't be faked. With a menu bigger than Cheesecake factories, these chef's run multiple wok's and a mise en place that puts french chefs to shame.

When you think Chinese/Korean, it's quite a 50/50 split with not one more prevelant than the other. When you think Korean you think banchan and kim chi's and pickled daikons, so in that regard it's more Chinese.

Apparently they have gotten some fame from social media, but I've been coming here long before that. Most of the patrons are Asian and all staff are, so your service is gonna be matter of fact. It's not so authentic that there are social mores to the tea pouring. They take your order quick and the food comes out quick, usually everything at once which is great for family sized meals/orders/parties versus date nights where there is conversation in between.

I feel like onions, green onions, carrots and peppers are in everything. I wish they had more xo sauce items becuase you can tell all their sauces are slurry enhanced. Still delicious, bold, thick, great. Prices are very affordable and the portions are plentiful. Fried rice is heavy on the msg and light on the soy sauce. They velvet all their beef, but the beef don't be beefing heavy, but their pork and shrimp are all succulent, soft, juicy without all that bi carb. Their szchewan sauce is something I dip their chicken lolipops in on top of their already sticky glaze. I tend to cut and add vinegar to a few of their dishes which is great.

It's M&P, down home, local. It's a place to bring your family, it's a place to stock your fridge with leftovers. It's the places metro cities are built on, despite it not being in Chinatown.“

“Mrs. Crespo: My husband asked me to give this place a try off reviews... We're a Spicy full household so trying new places is hard... Family of 7 so we order XL... In the past yrs started eating better... So clean and fresh tastes are important... At first was a bit iffy per the size of the wings... But then took into account the freshness of their food, taste and quality... We loved the flavor of everything... Crispy, not greasy... Extra soy blended perfectly into the rice... The egg foo young was fluffy and full, best looking sauce I've ever seen... It was smooth thick with a slight cream soup feel... Not jelly like... Not many places offer No Shell S&P Shrimp, love that they have the option with or without... No food coma zombies after, full but didn't feel gross... Delivery was on point... She said 45 minutes... In fact it was 45 minutes, including the 3 minutes it took me to give my order... A sweet older man delivered my order... The taste of the food reminded us of a China Buffet off Pulaski and Wellington.. Family owned, it was our wkly spot for over 20yrs... They watched me age into adulthood and watched my oldest 3 grow.. They've been closed for time now... But you're food reminds us of there... We'll be ordering again... Planning to stop for dine in as well...“

“My family and I traveled to Chicago twice this year and dined at the Asian Cuisine Express both times. The owner, cooks and wait staff were all extremely friendly and made each of our visits a wonderful experience. We ordered Chinese and Japanese food and we also sampled some of their new delicious tacos... everything we tried was absolutely fantastic. We live 300 miles away so we ordered a lot of takeout to bring home with us to share with our friends who didn't get to make the trips. Asian Cuisine express will be a regular stop now for us every time we go to Chicago... we highly recommend everyone tries this restaurant and we can't wait until we visit there again. Thanks to all the great people at Asian Cuisine Express!!!“

“Everything about this place has been great from start to finish. Ordering is easy, delivery is always on time, and the drivers are friendly and professional. The food consistently shows up hot, fresh, and clearly made with care.

We ordered the Kung Pao chicken (which is actually spicy), the Mongolian beef — which is phenomenal — and the egg rolls and fried rice, both of which are beyond fabulous. The flavors are spot-on, portions are generous, and the quality is way better than you’d expect from a place that somehow still flies under the radar.

It’s rare to find a restaurant where the entire experience is this solid. Highly recommend giving them a try.“

“The guy that answered the phone and took my order could have sounded like he was interested or at least a little bit friendly. Other than that I do have to say they're sweet and sour chicken is probably the best around. They're fried rice is also delicious. It's been a while since I was there so when I go back I'll update on the next dish that I get. All in all it's definitely good food.“

“This is my fav Chinese food spot around town. Their tofu is cooked well and everything always tastes great. Service is pretty quick too. I think most people order takeout but dining in is pretty chill too. Also, their prices are pretty reasonable. A lot of food that I usually end up taking home.“

“I really like their sesame chicken! They use dark meat, which I prefer over white meat, and the flavor is just chef’s kiss. It’s very subjective, but their chicken is one of the tops for me! Oh, and they give you a lot! Also more affordable than others.“

“A literal hole in the wall, but a hidden gem. I’ve been ordering from here since 2010 and the food has always been delicious. The portions sizes are big enough for two people even if you order a small size. The lady at the window is always kind and happy to help. I definitely recommend ordering from here!“

“great people, food is great and the portions of the food is awesome“

“I was on my way to Panda when I saw this place and thought I’d try it instead - what a great idea! The place is cozy and clean inside, and smells amazing. The manager immediately seated me and offered me some water and hot tea, which was delicious. 5/5 on service and atmosphere

I was 30 minutes late for the lunch special, but he still let me order two (Mongolian beef for me and orange chicken my wife) - both of which he cooked fresh for us. 5/5 on food taste

It took a few minutes longer than fast food and cost me a few extra dollars, but this place is 100% worth it. I don’t think I’ll go to Panda again while I live here! Thank you Hong Huah“

“LOVE this place and low-key consider it a hidden gem. Prices are so reasonable, even after having gone up in January - lunch special is $8. Portions have shrunk some (that's to be expected when prices go up) but it's still enough food to fill you up. Occasionally they'll get something small wrong (fried rice when I asked for white), but everything I've ordered from here is tasty, which is what not only keeps me coming back, but keeps me telling my coworkers about this place.“

“We ordered the shrimp fried rice, orange chicken, and honey shrimp. The fried rice was really good — flavorful with a generous amount of shrimp. The orange chicken was excellent, almost perfect — crispy, saucy, and packed with flavor. The honey shrimp had good flavor too, but the texture was way too hard, likely from being over-battered or double-fried.

Overall, it’s a solid spot for Chinese takeout — good portions, tasty food, and friendly service. Definitely a place I’ll keep in my back pocket for when we’re craving takeout again!“

“Kid-friendliness: It's just a walk in they have great customer service period and I say kid friendliness because they already treats adult customers with great hospitality so a kid doesn't I know make a difference they will treat the children the same if not better good food fast courteous and great mix and match food choices“

“I love this spot. Amazing hot & sour soup, egg drop has good strong flavor, the orange chicken they serve is nice and has a nice spice to it. The shrimp fried rice has very nice size shrimp. The chicken friend rice has a ton of chicken in it too. I really enjoy the fried wings (disconnected) as well, very delicious. I love the gravy from the shrimp with lobster sauce, good amount for shrimp for reasonable price. Always get the house sweet and sour chicken. It's superb. I will keep coming back to shop, lovely service fresh food“

“The best food around!
I am a FAN of chinese food, but no where around suburbs and chicago will you find such FRESH food! Veggies are perfectly done, meat is perfectly cooked! Sauce is amazing taste! I had their Happy Family Dish , Chicken fried rice and Khan Pau Chicken .
Please try this place!

Parking: Plenty of safe , free parking“

“We ordered three items from the restaurant and all of them were really good. However the Chow Mein (Fideo Tostado) with Crispy Noodles, was missing the crispy noodles. We reported this in the app, and the restaurant gave that item to us for free. We are giving five stars because of the exceptional customer service.“

“I find some of the low reviews here baffling. I think some people may be confusing this restaurant with other Chinese restaurants due to its rather non descript name. Make no mistake, the food here is excellent and punches way above its price point.Coming in the first time I was pessimistic. It seemed your standard pre prepared food menu ready to dish out quickly to the lunch crowd panda express style. I quickly became a huge fan after eating large well prepared portions I would expect from a normal sit down restaurant. Yes it's your standard generic fare but made so much better.Great food, great price. Appreciate these places, the owners care about making something good.“

“I love the food here, and the customer services is great“

“Food is very fresh and delicious“

“Friends don’t sleep on Dai Yee’s Asian Kitchen… it is soo yummy 🤤“

“Love the ambiance inside. Tiki beef is great, just wish it had more glaze on it, but otherwise I love beef on a stick. The egg rolls weren't the best i ever had, but id still eat them again, and the crab rangoon wasnt sweet enough, too much cream cheese, but we'd come back for more! Lovely lady at the front desk, she gave us free almond cookies and i love those things!“

“Scrumptious!!! Huge portions!! Will definitely return!!“

“We visited Fong’s Chinese Restaurant in November with my children when we were in Chicago for my son’s bootcamp graduation. It turned out to be such a warm and pleasant experience.

The service was very good, and the staff was genuinely friendly. We were pleasantly overwhelmed by the big servings—the food was delicious, fresh, and definitely worth the price. The attendant was especially kind; he even offered a small toy to my grandson to help cheer him up when he started crying. They also gifted us a 2026 calendar as a keepsake, which was such a thoughtful touch.

The place was clean, comfortable, and family-friendly, and we truly enjoyed both the food and the environment. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!“

“No complaints - food/service is excellent!“

“We ordered a large amount of food. Mongolian beef, beef and broccoli, chicken wings,eggrolls, crab rangoon, Singapore style noodles, combo fried rice, beef fried rice. Food was good but the egg rolls had a sour taste. Maybe we got some that were old or not fresh but we wound up throwing them away.“

“We were so disappointed today as we've been coming here for years and the food has always been excellent. Today we ordered the Szechuan shrimp and chicken and broccoli lunches. The chicken felt slimy and didn't taste good just like the vegetables. The shrimp lunch was not good either. Both lunches had a weird taste which we believe was due to freezing and reheating which explains why the rice wasn't really good either. The food has always been hot when we get it but today it was just warm. We are unable to finish these lunches. We're hoping that today was just a bad day.“

“Food was pretty good in you're in a pinch, plus they open early. The interior is cozy and neat and their service was quick and amicable. Ordered chicken curry, chicken fried rice, and a couple of eggrolls. The eggrolls were pretty standard and the fried rice was tasty, albeit just a bit too oily, and the chicken curry was fragrant and scrumptious but not as spicy as I would have preferred. Overall, quite decent. Cheers!“

“Moon Temple has been our family's go to for decades. Up until recently it was my number #1 pick for all things Chinese. Unfortunately, since the change in management we feel it's lost it's edge. The slight changes in recipes/prep is noticeable, especially in the egg rolls, egg foo young, and Singapore rice noodles. I'm all about progress but they were so tried and true.

Don't get me wrong, Moon Temple is still better that most resturants out there but it's sadly lost it's edge over some of it's competitors. In time, I hope they revert back to the things that set them apart.“

“Been coming here for over 20 yrs love everything best Chinese Food ever totally recommend“

“Best Chinese food I've had in a very long time fried rice was amazing and also General TSO was amazing very generous portions and very well priced dinner special $12 and includes egg roll and drink you don't see that to often anymore. I definitely will be returning.“

“Ordered today (nov. 9, 2025). My girlfriend and I heard about this place and got food. Everything was good (prices, portions, service) but, whatever you do, do not get the pineapple fried rice. The pineapple tasted like rotten filth and in no way would i believe it wasn’t spoiled. had to spit it out. Maybe it was a bad day to order it but I am disappointed as that is what we craved prior to considering this spot. The mongolian beef and soup were very good though.“

“We were in our way to the airport and decided to get dinner. The service was fast, the person in the front (owner?) was so friendly and personable. The restaurant is really spacious and lovely. The biggest treat was finally eating our meal and it was the best Chinese food I’ve had. So delicious! The portions are very generous and they did not skimp on the shrimp. I highly recommend this place.“
