I always hate writing negative or bad reviews for local places but I have to be honest. I’ve been coming here for about 20 plus years a d ice had not so great experiences but today kinda finalized it for me. Not including today the last two times that I went the food was not that good for various reasons today I ordered the lunch special which I got hot braised chicken light sesame chow mein and then I got a order of regular potstickers and a small fried rice. The hot bread chicken did taste good but there was no hot element to it at all I mean like you could probably feed a baby it that’s how spicy it was like negative and if I would have known that I would have just got something else because it essentially just tastes like sweet soy chicken I specifically get the normal size pot stickers not the mini ones because the normal pot stickers have like a doughy wrapper which I really thoroughly enjoy versus the many ones have like a thin rapper kind of more like a wonton I don’t know if they change the recipe but now regular size pot stickers have the thin wrappers and the inside they’re huge chunks of cabbage in there and last but certainly not least my fried rice that I got from the steam tray was burnt and it literally taste burnt so unfortunately I don’t think I’ll be going back wish them all to look in their business though also fellow tip to the staff got to stop being so impatient also this was $26 smh so much money (about $14,$7,$3 )

Big portion of food for a good price, their two item plates can feed you for the whole day. Garlic wings and orange chicken are fire. Kung pao, teriyaki chicken, green bean chicken all solid. Everything I’ve tried is at least decent

Ordered a 3 way combo also Door Dash . To get seems been on the line all day and, didn’t get a half of soy sauce pk. No napkins or fork /spoon. Called and was told you have to request it. Oh I live a ways out so, i paid for that as well. One more thing im a long time customer. Uncooked Broccoli not fresh yellow, Sweet and Sour Pork dry and hard. Chow Mein greasy, Salt Vinegar Wings dry and hard. Stick a fork in me DONE..

I went to this restaurant expecting something like panda express, but was blown away once I tasted their food! The wait time to get my food was under 4 minutes which is very good especially since it was so good! Overall a good place.

I couldn’t be happier! The food was absolutely delicious—it totally satisfied my cravings. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and exactly what I was hoping for. On top of that, delivery was right on time, which made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend if you’re in the mood for great Chinese takeout!

This place has VERY rude customer service. We came to order out for my dad’s 87 birthday. The lady at the counter was glaring at us, rushing us, and there was nobody else in line. She tried giving us the food without the courtesy of asking if we wanted condiments. And when we asked for some, she sneered, “Do you want fork too?” There’s more, but I’ll just leave it at that.
The food tastes nasty, not at all like real Chinese food and it’s super greasy!
I wouldn’t recommend this place to my worst enemy. STAY AWAY!!!!!

I am writing to express my disappointment with the customer service at Chef’s Chinese Food. We visited to celebrate a very special occasion—my boyfriend’s father’s 90th birthday. However, the experience was ruined by the person who took our order. She was rude, impatient, and completely unprofessional.
In today’s difficult times, businesses need to be especially mindful of how they treat customers. A great representative is crucial for keeping a business afloat. This individual was a poor reflection of the restaurant, and her disrespectful attitude made for a very unpleasant dining experience. We will not be returning, and I would not encourage others to visit.

Hot and sour soup was the worst I ever tasted. The kung pao chicken looked good but was tasteless.
They seem to prefer quantity over quality.

I did a pick up and have been going there for year’s! I’m 4 minutes away and ALL food was Cold. Very RUDE HELP and she didn’t listen, after asking 4 times!!!! I’m generous, but she kept trying to charge me for someone else’s order, plus mine. She got irritated with me, but I did not snap on her! COLD FOOD, RUDE HELP AND NEVER WILL RETURN. Prices have gone way higher than necessary and the rudeness and child food is not acceptable. After 19 year’s of loyalty, she ended it. I hope they crash hard, as other’s realize their decline.
