If you like carrots and celery, this is your place. Crispy beef came with too much sauce and was 2/3 celery and carrots. So much sauce, beef was no longer crispy. Sauce too sweet.

Underwhelming. They try but doesn’t seem authentic enough. It’s a neighborhood restaurant but not a destination
Will go back if I’m in the area and feel like Asian food

Today I was craving Chinese food , we found this small restaurant, to be honest is not the best that I’ve had, but it was ok
The only complaint I have is overcooked broccoli, overall good

The staff is very friendly, however… The food is quite bland. The seafood soup tasted like boiled water. There was no stock flavor of any type. The dumplings tasted store bought. The entree’s were edible but everyone commented that they were bland.

We visited family in DC for 10 days and on day 3 we ordered a huge vegetarian meal from Chen’s. In the following days, our meat-eating parents were requesting another order so we had another huge feast. What a delight and a treat this place is – some of the best fake meat I’ve ever had (and being veg for 30 years, that is saying a lot).
It’s fresh, it’s vibrant, it’s scrumptious. I can’t say enough good things about the food here, you feel like royalty eating a plate of this food.
After both meals we took a pen to the menu to put a heart next to the items we loved most and, well, everything we ordered got a heart both times. Phenomenal. Go ahead and get a double order of the Vegetarian Crispy Beef, it was everyone’s favourite.
I can’t believe I didn’t snap a photo, too excited to dig in I guess. Best food of our holiday. Thanks, Chen’s! Keep up the great work.

If you’re in a hurry, this might not be the spot for you—wait times can range from 30 minutes to even an hour. That’s because, impressively, the owner is running almost the entire operation by himself. He takes orders, cooks, and probably even cleans up. Judging by how late he stays (I heard he clocks out around 2am), it’s clear he’s doing it all with dedication.
As a contractor always on the move, this place hits the spot—affordable, flavorful, and filling. Being Hispanic, I found the Chinese food here to be really good. In fact, during my visits, most of the customers I saw were Hispanic too. Everyone complains about the wait, but when the chef finally comes out with your food, the mood shifts—people go from frustrated to laughing and joking. That says something about both the flavor and the energy this place gives off.
Yes, there are things that could be improved, but you can feel the passion behind this business. The owner is a genuinely kind person, and despite the chaos, he takes care of every customer. For me, this is the only place I’d grab food if I’m in the area—cheap, tasty, and run by someone who truly cares.

I would strongly recommend Chen’s Gourmet. I ordered something from their menu that I wanted to exchange as it tasted like peanuts. Not only did they allow me to keep the original, but they made a replacement. This is the customer service I rarely experience nowadays and sincerely appreciate. The food was delicious on top of that. Chen’s Gourmet will always have my loyalty

Gourmet is right. Chen’s offers some delicious and fair priced food with a wealthy sized portions. It’s not a large place and doesn’t have much space to eat, but I’d you do sit and eat, you can browse down at the MacArthur Blv atmospheres and people watch.
To end it off, the chefs are friendly and the food is fantastic. Everything just tastes very authentic and sits just right. I’d recommend getting their Sesame Chicken, as it’s easily their best dish!
