“Even rating super hard core, this place gets 5 starts. I've never known a Chinese restaurant to be nearly as consistently delicious. We are regulars here, ordering almost every week for years, and have never been disappointed. On top of that, Ida, the woman usually at the front desk, is so friendly and a joy to see every time! I recommend Gilbert's Kitchen to literally everyone“
“Food is okay and satisfies the craving for Chinese food. Plenty of food and selection and the pricing is excellent. I really like that you can do take out as well and really load up on what you want without it costing too much. I'm going to miss it when Spring Hill mall closes.“
“Really great food - I had the Kung Pao chicken, and my 99-year old Great Aunt has been eating Beef Chop Suey for at least 50 years, so I guess that she's somewhat of an expert taster, lol. Neither of us had previously tried this unassuming, tidy place that also has frozen dessert specialties. We both were very happy with the flavor and freshness of our dishes, and I have to say that this is TRULY one of the best in the area- can't wait to go back and grab some more deliciousness from these fine folks! :)“
“My favorite restaurant closes down recently, and I've been looking for a replacement. This place has everything I wanted and more. The crab rangoon in beautifully fried, the filling is sweet and crabby without too much onion. The BBQ pork has that wonderful deep color and flavor that char sui ought to have. The sesame chicken is made with dark meat I think which gives a whole new dimension to the chew, while the coating remains a bit of crispyness while still being smothered in a sweet sesame sauce. The sauce might be slightly stodgy, but I've have far worse when you consider all of it together. The fried rice has a deep wok flavor, both smokey and rich. Even the BBQ chicken sticks are what you might find at a decent buffet, but amped up to 11! I have a new favorite Chinese restaurant. Sadly it's 80 miles from my house. But I'll be back tomorrow to try the egg rolls!“
“Very filling portions and super affordable prices.For $13 I would this (a small size) with a nice side of white rice and spicy chili oil on the side. I definitely will be retuning because it’s so flavorful without being overly saucy or greasy.Parking: Plenty spacious parking.“
“This is the best Chinese Food in the area. We just moved here and took a while to find our go to Chinese Food spot in Algonquin area. The Chef Special Combo Fried rice is amazing and the people that work here are friendly as well. Will definitely recommend Chopsticks to my friends and family.“
“First time dining here since the ownership changed and I'll definitely be back. Restaurant is spacious, comfortable and clean. We came Friday for lunch and tried their lunch specials which come with soup. I tried the Orange Shrimp (pictured), Sushi Platter and Beef with Mixed Vegetables. Both the sushi and Chinese dishes were fresh and flavorful. I ordered the hot & sour soup with my platter which is one way I gauge the authenticity & quality of a Chinese restaurant and was pleasantly surprised. The soup and dishes we ordered reminded me of my parent's restaurant which they ran for over 30 years. There are very few restaurants serving quality Chinese dishes in the Northwest suburbs so come out and support this restaurant.“
“Good local Chinese take out place. The only critique would be to to change the sesame chicken recipe because it looked and tasted exactly like the orange chicken with a few sesame seeds sprinkled on top. Sesame chicken meat was tough too, we were disappointed with that dish. Otherwise we will be back to try more things off the menu.“
“Nice place. It's bigger that what the storefront would suggest.Quite a large selection of Canton, Hunan, Mongolian and Szechwan dishes.They also carry a wide selection of Sushi dishes, which I do not eat.Beer selection is pretty much Asian brews. The wine list is rather limited. If you go here, it is for the food, which is quite tasty.“
“This has become our go-to sushi spot, especially for delivery. A couple weeks ago I placed an order and they accidentally gave me the wrong roll, so I called and let them know. The person I talked to (I assume the owner but I didn't catch her name) said she recognized my name from the order and will give me the roll for free next time. I didn't think she would actually remember until a couple nights ago when I was going to order again and called the store just to see if she remembered. Right when I told her my name, she remembered my order and told me she would send it. She apologized again and I told her I appreciated the thought and remembering.My fiancee and I already love this place, this took it over the top. We feel valued as customers and always love the food, even the wrong orders!“
“Carry out only, but the best Chinese food ever! Sweet and sour chicken is phenomenal, crispy white meat nuggets and the sauce (in a separate container) is perfectly balanced. Chow mein, egg foo young, fried rice, hot and sour soup, all are great tasting. Portions are huge, and the weekday lunch specials can't be beat.“
“My new favorite restaurant ? service is good a bit awkward to the teenager who was in the front cause he keep staring us whileeating ??But we proceed enjoying our meal and had a family dinner.We order the New hong-kong fried rice, salt and pepper shrimp (NO SHELLS), and this beef with crispy noodles on it. My favorite of the most.? but unfortunately we forgot to take pictures of the fried rice due to my kids is starving and cannot wait to eat ??“
“First time eating here. Had orange chicken lunch special. Came with soup , chicken fried rice and an egg roll. Orange chicken was crispy, right balance of sweet and spicy. Egg roll tasty and crispy. Perfect fried rice. Was greeted with a welcome smile upon walking in. Will return:)“
“Little Rice Is one of the best Sushi Restaurants I’ve been to and I’ve been to a lot but this one is one of my favorite because there sushi Is just perfect, Also by the back you can find the chefs making And cutting your sushi. (You must Order a Sushi boat if you’re in a group, So good!)“
“They had a new waitress that took us in at 8 pm and we didn't realize they were closed. The nice lady still took our order and was super kind enough to keep the place open. Unfortunately due to some family emergency, my husband had to leave and pick up his mother and I was left there, the lady that took our order, I think she was the owner herself, she made me feel comfortable and when I had asked if I could pay now and take the food to go, she was EXTREMELY kind to help me pack up and get checked out. She kept apologizing like it was her fault she was TOO kind. We will be back soon during restaurant hours.Dietary restrictions: They have plenty of vegetarian options and gluten free as well.“
“Pretty good food with generous portions. I paid about $14 per person, but got more than 3 meals out of the "large" size meals. This is one of the few restaurants my kids request other than fast food. Keep in mind it is CARRY OUT OR DELIVERY ONLY. No dining room.“
“we've been going to Chen's for over 30 years at least once a month. people are awesome, the food is outstanding and the prices are exceptionally reasonable. disregard negative reviews. anyone that goes there on a regular basis would highly recommend. a nice family restaurant not a chain.“
“We would order from Lin’s garden when we lived in Niles and now we will definitely be going back to Mr. Wok. Last night we had egg rolls, fried rice, and sesame chicken. It was great and we will be back. Finally have a place for some great Chinese food and more!!“
“Not sure what was going on but they're only doing takeout the whole restaurant is closed off except for a small space in front of the door when you can place an order for pick up an order in go. This is why I have to do 3 stars on the atmosphere. Food with great service was still good and fast. But had I known it was takeout only I would not have come.“
“This our go to Chinese place. Food is always very good. We have been in this area for over 20 years and we have tried other Chinese restaurants, however, they dim in comparison to China House. Servers are very friendly and the food is always hot when we arrive for pick up. We love this place.“
“Small restaurant but good food. Most customers opted for takeout, as the restaurant itself isn't anything special. We decided to eat there and waited awhile for the soups, but that gave me the impression they made them per order, and the taste pretty much confirmed it. The chicken egg foo young was tasty and fresh. The large portion came with four sizeable pieces with rice. Two pieces were enough to fill me up. The owner was friendly and personable, even through her broken English It's definitely nice to support small businesses, and I recommend this for anyone craving fast casual Chinese.“
“By far the best Chinese take out in the area! Consistently good, have enjoyed their food for over 35 years! So glad we can still enjoy their food. Look forward to every order! We have our typical order but every on e any a while we will try something new and have never been disappointed!!! I moved to the west side of town but will still drive for the best!“
“I walked in during lunch and got the kung pao chicken combo with chicken fried rice. It was ready in just 10 minutes. The portions were very big and the food was very tasty. I eat a lot of chinese food and this was one of the best. I'll be coming back“
“Such a nice place. The food exceptional and very tasty. The owner / manager didn’t think I would like what I ordered so he recommended something else. Same ingredients. Different spices and sauce and noodles. I loved what he brought me. If your in doubt. Ask him. Tell him what you like. He will make it. Even if not on the menu. The crab Rangoon is amazing fried rice is good. You can add what meats or seafood you like to make it better to your liking. Place lets you sit where you like. And your served personally. Asked if Al was good. And given boxes to bring home leftovers All with a simple smile. Wish they played some music in the background. Really quiet inside the resturant.Parking: Spots aren’t numbered. But lots of place to park. Private lot. Gas station next door. Close to shopping“
“This place has some of the best Chinese food I have found near Hanover park/streamwood/Bartlett. Mongolian Beef is more traditional (spicy and not sweet, packed with beef, white and green onions and includes the crunchy white noodles). The fried rice with shrimp came with good size shrimp. The crab Rangoon is also packed with filling and you can tell they change their oil frequently. We also enjoyed their beef lo mein and sesame chicken. Their food is not salty, but if you like that add a little salt yourself to bring out a tad more flavor. Don’t plan on dining in, it’s not the greatest atmosphere. It is clean but clearly meant for carry out first.“
“I've been here around 7p today and I personally don't know why people are complaining on that place ;) Everything I ate today was fresh and warm. Food wasn't boiling-hot, but I think it's not the point. I had to cut out one star because of lack of onion rings and the price - $11 bf tax is too much for such place.“
“The egg rolls are the best tasting near by suburbs. Their food is so good it has a great taste. I ordered sesame chicken and a sesame beef. I also ordered bbq fried rice, egg rolls, kung pow chicken and yang chow wonton soup. To start of the Yang chow wonton soup is the best tasting soup with some white pepper and soy sauce. It has bbq beef, chicken, shrimp,wonton, hard boil egg cut in half, pea pods, watercress, carrot and mushrooms it so delicious it a must try. They have the best egg rolls here. Ask for their house hot mustard and sweet and sour it amazing. The sesame beef and sesame chicken is also very good and we love this dish here. It is served with broccoli and it a decent portion. The kung pow chicken is spicy but to a level you can handle. It has green and red peppers with peanuts, chicken and I believe onions and red dry pepper which is so flavorful and delicious. This is a hidden gem in Elgin. You can dine in, they have a couple booths and tables. The service is great and Michelle will take great care of you.“
“We order carry out. Staff is always friendly and helpful. Food is always well made and ready for pickup cashew chicken has plenty of cashews, loaded with veggies, and the sauce is delicious. General Tsos chicken is crispy and flavorful. I wish restaurants here would do the crab Rangoon's in tempura batter but, alas, haven't found one yet. That being said, the crab Rangoon is good, as is the pot stickers. Always a nice bag of sauces and cookies too. Great value for the money and leftovers for lunch!“
“Lovely Chinese-American food. Run by some rad bachan (grandmas). The food was so good. My pepper beef actually tasted like pepper, and the beef was so tender. My wife got the sesame chicken and the flavor was so delicate. They even have a full bar. Absolute classic. Support them today. Do expect some relaxed service and the seats have tape on them. But the place is just old school. It's worth it.When bachan points to a menu item and shouts "yum yum" and gives you a thumbs up. Order that item. You can't go wrong.I'm going to head back sometime and see if I can elbow my way into some secret menu items. I would bet if you ask nicely they'll make you some "real" food. People who know, know.“
“All I can say is great food, really nice family, and quick service. I don't like many pick up Chinese places, this place is great. I have tried many different items and my honey and I have been extremely happy with everything. Order and enjoy.“
