Order the fried shrimp lunch special. Consisted of three fried shrimp, chicken fried rice, an egg roll, and for some reason barbecued pork pieces in a sauce. The fried rice and the shrimp we're decent nothing special. The egg roll was horrible. I have no idea why it had pork with it but it did not look appetizing and the sauce kind of ruined some of the rice. Really wish they didn't put it in there. I would not go back way better food around. Especially since it was 12 bucks for the lunch special.

I have tried three times with many dishes. I will never return again. Of all the 20 different dishes we probably got, None of them taste good. Ingredients are not fresh and taste very bland and watery.

A shell of its former self, I wish I'd read reviews before calling the stored number in my phone. The new owners have changed many recipes, and not for the better. After being a frequent customer since the late 90's we moved out of the area a couple years ago. Ordered yesterday and it was so disappointing, everything was bland. The lomein noodles are even wrong now. We will never be back, recommend going elsewhere.

The food here is not bad at all, but I have had issues with service the past 2 times I’ve been here. Once was an issue with the staff arguing loudly enough that it made me uncomfortable and another time was a miscommunication about vegetable egg rolls that took more explaining and more time than it should have to get them exchanged. I ordered at 11:13am and it took until 12:47pm to resolve the issue including being questioned in a way that I did not like at all. So I just can’t get order here anymore

Delicious fresh to order food and great family size portions
This #1 Chop Suey location has been my absolute favorite restaurant for the last 15 years. It was my family's go-to restaurant for big events and my birthday. I ordered my usual on Jan 7th, 2024 and it was incredible. I ordered my usual again March 17th, 2024 and it was really, really not great. I had heard/read that this location was under new management and saw the bad reviews but kept an open mind and am sad to say I am throwing away my menus. My normal garlic chicken is now super spicy and icky and the chicken lo mein doesn't even use the same noodles. Unless they go back to the old recipes, I will not be coming back. I don't generally write bad reviews but I think it's sad that the new management bought a perfect restaurant and turned it into trash. RIP #1 Chop Suey. You will really be missed.

I've been ordering here since early 2000s and now I drive out there from Chicago. Never Again! The 1st time I've ordered since new management was bad, the food was different. I tried it again last week, thinking I'd have a better experience.. No! The rice was dry and the Egg Foo Young was extremely salty.. I was Hot! For $25 ! The inside is different. There's a counter full of STUFF.. All kinds of new items stuck to the wall. The kitchen is open but not as lit as before and looked congested.. So yes Big Disappointment..

The food quality became very poor.. it doesn't taste the same.
My son and his friends came here and told me the smoothies were amazing and that the person working there was “super nice to a bunch of kids” so thank you! And now he’s asking me to take for another smoothie and now I have to try them!!

I just moved to Oak Forest and was looking for a Chinese reastaurant. I came upon #1 Chop Suey in Oak Forest. I am so happy I did!!! Ben the owner was so amazing and had the best customer service I have seen in a while. The food was amazing and worth the price. I would definitely recommend thus place.

New management with expanded menu options. Great new recipes. The fried rice(mixed) is amazing. Very fresh crab Rangoon and delicious home made sweet sour sauce.

You can tell the difference. New owners which brings change but unfortunately, not all change is good.
