Chinese Restaurants near North Riverside

“good service. great entertainment“

“I’ve been coming here for years! I realized I never left a review and as someone that likes reading them to see how good a place is I wanted to share my experience here. The staff is friendly and the food is always delicious! It’s definitely at its best when it’s early afternoon. Their bourbon chicken is delicious! I get the regular and the spicy one. I would definitely continue to be a long tome customer !“

“Good food, but the sometimes don't follow directions with thier online orders, like no extra sauce when you clearly asked for it and the orders are sometimes not ready at the specified pickup times. When you only get a half hour for lunch it makes a big difference when you have to wait another 5 to ten minutes because your online order is not ready at your pickup time.“

“Have been twice and my experience has been great“

“They have the best Chinese food down. I always get the string beans and the sesame chicken. It’s so delicious.“

“From the minute we walked in everything was wonderful. Our server was friendly and beyond accommodating. As was the chef when we requested a dish not on the menu. The food was exceptional. The best Chinese food we’ve ever had in the suburbs. Definitely compares to Chinatown.“

“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!“

“Normally go to moy3 in New Lenox every year for our birthday. My son and I are on the same day. But do to hours at Moe's we had to go elsewhere. Happy we did, moy yen you knocked it out of the park! Food was fabulous service great price the same. And not one person did not enjoy.. Thank you u for a great birthday dinner“

“Love everything about new ⭐️“

“This is my go to place to order Chinese food. And let me tell you something, this place is the best! Theyre so kind and very accommodating. The manager goes above and beyond taking care of their customers. Thank you for making it worth while.“

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

“I been going to this restaurant since 1989… original owners are still there. Food is tasty and full of aroma. I take family here when we have visitors. I live an hour away now so I make sure I stock up. Portions are perfect! I Recommend a 100%“

“Absolutely delicious! The hot and sour soup brought the heat, but didn't over power the flavor. We also had a variety of the dim sum, the best was the pot stickers. Fun atmosphere, great service“

“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.“

“Family of 4 - myself and son split the All you can eat Sushi, while my husband and daughter split a couple of the Chinese entrees. Staff was very attentive and friendly. Everything we received came out fresh and delicious. Everyone left full and satisfied with their meals! I think this might be a new favorite spot. There was a lot of food we wanted to try and can't wait to come back to try more!“

“Since our favorite Chinese place went down the tubes, likely sold, we have been trying to find a replacement. China Fast Wok has some great things going for it. Some dishes were close to a 5, others more of a low 3. The Kung Pao shrimp was fantastic. That would be a 5. Plenty of shrimp, great sauce, correct ingredients. Fried rice had a generous amount of shrimp, but rather tasteless. The egg roll made we want to cry. It's one of my favorite things to eat. Never, in my life, have I gotten such a small, half egg roll. Taste was ok, but way too small. The other dish was Momgolian Beef. We asked for it "not spicey." Taste was OK, but there was so little meat, we thought they made a mistake. We would not order that again, which is unfortunate. It's such a classic staple.

The owners are very nice. We are willing to try a couple of other dishes, but won't bother with the specials anymore. The egg roll is just puny and the rice ends up getting thrown out.“

“I was told by a friend about this place and I decided to try it I was very happy with my food I got the moo sho pork which is my favorite Chinese dish it was very authentic and delicious the portions are fantastic I could have feed two people with the order .they have an extensive menu which I'm looking forward to trying this place blows away chi tung .“

“First time ordering take out from here. We ordered sweet and sour chicken, beef lo mein, beef and broccoli and crab rangoons. Everything was delicious! We also got mango and watermelon smoothies. So good! We will definitely be ordering from here again.“

“My husband and I came to this establishment as we were starving while shopping across the street and i was craving chinese food. We were pleasantly surprised at how good the food is here. Very hot and freshly made to order and it tasted very good. The egg roll was one of the best i’ve had and pretty big in size compared to other egg rolls. The inside of the location was very small and hot! We ate in the car as we were sweating just standing there waiting for our order. I got the chicken lo mein lunch special and he got the triple delight spicy. Will definitely be returning and trying other entrees.

Vegetarian options: You can order almost any entree vegetarian if you ask.

Parking: It’s a plaza with other establishments but we found plenty of parking.“

“great and friendly sevice. excellent food. best Chinese food i have ever had!“

“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.“

“Hands down some of the best Chinese food in the city. I’m talking from the suburbs to China town.“

“This place is much better than its rating suggests. The General Tso Chicken was excellent, with juicy white meat and a crispy batter. The cashier was also very friendly. I haven't had American Chinese food this good in years.

The mango and peach smoothies are some of the best in the world—10/10!

Parking: Typical small shopping center parking lot“

“I have been eating here for over 20 years! I used to live right around the corner! Even after moving out of state, I ALWAYS come back to eat here when I am in Chicago. They have always been great. The food is amazing. I’ve been to more Chinese restaurants than I could count all over the country and not one can compare to Lee’s Chop Suey. Hands down 10 out of 10 stars. I can’t wait for my next visit!“

“Love the new restaurant and was so happy to see Mort!“

“Been going to this place for 5 years. Place is always fantastic, service is always good and professional. Love the food.

Dietary restrictions: You can always tell them if you want to cut down on salt for some dishes. Such as msg, sauces, and having your food at a certain spice level. Really helped me a lot.“

“It is the best Chinese food I have ever eaten. The spectacular mixed rice. The shrimp and semi-sweet dumplings were delicious. The attention of the best. People always attentive and willing to help you. I recommend it without fail. Overall excellent.

Parking: Always with space to park.

Kid-friendliness: All dishes can be eaten by children. They're delicious.“

“If I could give the service 10/5 stars I would. Not only is the food some of the best around. They are amazing in service, kindness. This is a place I’ve gone to for a good while. I can’t help but rave about them. If you want some great Chinese come here!!“

“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“

“WOW was this Chinese food amazing. I just got over a stomach bug and was craving some egg drop soup. I decided to order from China Snack for the first time and got egg drop soup, beef/broccoli, and sweet/sour pork. EVERYTHING was some of these best I’ve ever had.

Portions are massive also. I emptied everything out to my glass ware for storage and shocked how full everything is.

**CASH ONLY**“

“I think this is a kind of a hidden gem for Chinese takeout it's in the area that you wouldn't notice it was there not much else around it but the food is definitely better than what you would expect from this unknown Chinese takeout place“

“First time ordering from this place and I was surprised when I was in their menu Chinese BBQ ribs! They were tender and well seasoned. The rice with chicken was great you don’t need any additional side with it since the rice itself is delicious.“

“A family run restaurant with great food and a friendly staff that makes you feel welcome. The appetizer are start to every meal. A selection of appetizer and splitting a main course is often enough for two.

Dietary restrictions: The food is made to order and meets the personal needs.“

“It's always hot and delicious. And when they say it's ready at a certain time. It's ready. Plus if you pay with a card and they see you pull up they always come out and give it to you. Well they do that for me. Been going there forever“

“Every now and then you run across a hidden gem. Like a former Chinatown chef who has opened his own place. I have enjoyed superb Chinese food from this restaurant for decades. You know it's good when you'll go out of your way for simple dishes like their BBQ pork fried rice. Try the shrimp in garlic sauce, or orange chicken. Most highly recommended. Family atmosphere.“

“I dined in with a friend and it was our first time here. We both ordered from their Combination Special Lunch Plate Menu.

I ordered the Kung Po Chicken, which included an egg roll and choice of steamed white rice, fried rice, or noodles. I chose the fried rice and my friend had the General Tso's Chicken with fried rice. I will leave it to him to review his own dish should he so choose.

The server brought the egg rolls in advance of serving our entrees and rice. They were piping hot, the hottest I've ever experienced. The outer crust was crispy, not soft and greasy as many of my prior experiences elsewhere have often been. The inside was chock full of tasty ingredients.

We also had their hot and sour soup, which was quite good. It was a nice sized portion for the price and had an abundance of stock.

When our main dishes arrived, they were piping hot and exceptionally generous servings, both in terms of the entree portions and the rice.

My Kung Po Chicken had plenty of chicken along with other ingredients. It was flavorfully seasoned, and spicy, just as their menu indicated. The fried rice was also good. Complimentary hot tea was also provided, which we enjoyed as well.

All this for $9.15 per plate. [Note their online menu showed $10.95, but it was actually $9.15. Even at $10.95 it would have been a good value, but at $9.15 it was a great value, the best I've experienced in quite awhile.]

This was our first time here and likely not our last. It is real close to Midway Airport, which makes it handy when traveling in/out of town.

The service was friendly and efficient, and things were served up in a timely fashion. I highly recommend you giving it a try. If you do, and you don't find it as good as another place you've been, please comment so I can give your reccomendation a try, as I'm always up for exceptional Chinese cuisine.

Well done, New China Tea! Looking forward to coming back!“

“Their barbecued pork and roast duck are my favorites. It's a pity that every time I want to buy one, I only buy half of one. It's hard to believe it's such a coincidence. A little weird. Since I can only buy half of one and it’s hard to deal with it, I won’t consider buying it now.“

“Really love the Chinese food from here. Orange chicken is on point !!! I also enjoy their chili oil. Their egg rolls are crunchy, so I love that. The Beef and broccoli is also pretty good as well as their lo mein. I also order their catering trays. A must for parties!!!

Parking: Small parking lot for a quick pick up to go!!!“

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

“First time ordering from here, and we'll definitely be back. Food was fresh and absolutely delicious. The Xtra Large size is no joke!!! We ordered an Xtra Large order of sweet and sour chicken, BBQ pork egg foo young lunch special, crab Rangoon and BBQ pork ribs. The sweet and sour chicken was a huge hit, my kids absolutely loved it. Light and crispy, and it didn't taste oily at all. Egg foo young lunch special was great, really liked the plain fried rice it came with. BBQ pork ribs were tasty, as were the rangoon. They stuff those crab rangoon very nicely!

Kid-friendliness: My kids loved the food

Dietary restrictions: Let them know if you have any allergies etc, they seem accommodating“

“I love the excellent Chinese dishes, the price was very affordable and the customer service was excellent. I must say one of the best Chinese/ Japanese restaurants, I’ve ever been too. The cocktails were amazing. I will definitely be back and recommend to friends and family.“

“Hate that missing ingredients on a topical dish remember few years back when they have vegetables and egg on dry rice, now not even the smell please honor our business don be cheap is paying for not a mercy or free food. That is an insult to my intelligence and my wallet... Please take care. I do not wanted stop coming in to your place. Pst veggies are not plus is add flavor to any meal....... Thanks.....“

“Excellent food every time. I just love Mushroom Egg Foo Young and they use fresh mushroom as well as all the food is good & fresh with the best ingredients!! This is the place for Asian Food with a menu that can’t be beat.“

“My family & I ordered the combination lo mein & fried rice. Also tried the orange chicken & crab ragoons. The food was hot & very generous portions. Try the jasmine tea, it was very delicious & im not a tea drinker!“

“Pretty happy with our takeout. All of the portions were extremely generous and was a great price. We REALLY liked the General Tsaos chicken. We got fried noodles but felt they were over salted. We will have to come back for the lunch specials and try out some new dishes“

“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!!!“

“Highly recommended!! The food is amazing!!“

“Road tripping and looking for vegan food. This place has options. If you are staying by the Comfort Inn and Suites Chicago airport then take a 2minute walk over here to eat. Great food, friendly staff and reasonable prices.

Vegetarian options: Delicious vegan vegetarian options“

“They're fine for what they are which is a city version of a strip mall Chinese restaurant. It's not particularly inexpensive unless you get a lunch or dinner combo. That's their strength. Otherwise they sometimes close a little early if it's slow. They're not very friendly though not rude. And the quality and timeliness is very inconsistent. My advice, go well before closing and get a combo. If you need more than 3 packets of sauce total, ask them or you won't get it. And they never include hot mustard sauce if you like it, which I do. It's average but not bad.“

“Best chicken wings in the whole city! The spicy sauce has a nice kick.“
