Chinese Cuisine
The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.
Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.
There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.

Probably the most inconsistent Chinese rest I've ever eaten at. The food ranges from alright to absolutely awful. You can go there 3 times a week and order the same dish. It will never be the same. It's like they are just winging it. They also use a lot of canned vegetables. The meats are un-marinated or seasoned and usually taste terrible. You'll be served a glutenous snot-like soup to start. Better dump a ton of soy in it so that it tastes o.k.! Also you get a "salad," which is actually a half-cup of ranch dumped on 2 pieces as lettuce. The only things you can trust will be acceptable is the Sweet and Sour. It is over-breaded, but crunchy. Maybe it's the sauce that covers up the awful meat? The Egg Foo Yong can be good, depending on what random vegetables they will be using that day. Everything else is a crap shoot. I've been there far too many times and only rarely enjoy it. This is the only chinese restaurant in the area. I think that is what keeps them going. It's definitely made for older folks who like bland mild food. Also, there staff are not talkative or friendly. There have been times where they are just counting the minutes until you leave so they can quickly start vacuuming under your table while you are standing up. If you want good Chinese, it's worth driving to Chou's Kitchen. In fact, you're better off eating at Panda Express. At least Panda Express is consistent!

I have driven by Chen's Chinese Restaurant countless times. I was craving Chinese food so I decided on going to Chen's. I have been looking for a new Chinese restaurant to add to my cycle of restaurants. This is defiantly a place I will go back to; here is why: Price- We went for lunch and the price was very low for how much food we got. I did not even come close to eating all my food. I don't know what their dinner prices are but there lunch prices are fantastic. Food - The food was spot on! Do I need to say more?? Service - My water cup got refilled multiple times before I was empty. We didn't have to wait for anything. It was how service should be at any restaurant.

I am a lover of Chinese food, and am always on the prowl for a tasty new place that is close. This place fit the bill nicely! Started with the Egg Flower Soup: The flavor was good (it did require a little pepper) and I enjoyed that they added water chestnuts to the soup. For the Entree I went with the Lemon Chicken: Battered then fried chicken over a bed of cabbage with sweet lemon sauce. The sauce was perfect, YuM! The entree did come with white rice as well. The server was nice enough, and if you dine in there really isn't much to look at (couple tables & booths.) I suggest just order take-out and eat the delicious food in the comfort of your home.

My husband and I ordered the beef kabobs, an egg roll, veggie lomein, and General tso's chicken. The kabobs were limp and flavorless, I may try to doctor them up tomorrow with loads of BBQ sauce. The kabobs were filled with grizzle. The general tso's chicken was also soggy, while not flavorless I could not get past the texture. I had two bites of it and resorted to eating the white rice. I've been craving Chinese for about a month now, and now I'm still craving Chinese food. Literally the worst food I've ever paid for in my life! If I could give a half a star I would because the guy on the phone was nice.
(1)Angie S.
First time here tonight. The service was great and a smile on there face! Very friendly staff. The prices are average and the inside is clean. The food was good. Everything tastes really good from the soup to the appetizers to the entrées. If we're in the again we will stop in for a bite to eat.
(4)John W.
The water cups is too DIRDY!!! And COCKROACH running on the carpet. it is American Chinese food. Maybe good for SOMEBODY, but not for my family, Never come back
(1)Laurin G.
I was in town visiting my mom and we got takeout from this location. We ordered Mongolian beef, spicy shrimp and shrimp egg foo young. It was edible but I thought the portions were small and the food was bland. The egg foo young was weird--very small and tasted like a veggie burger.
(2)Lily K.
Not a traditional Chinese restaurant. Very cheap but not very good. I've had better food at Panda Express.
(1)Mark H.
Wow, for a fast food Chinese place, this is actually pretty good. Lunch specials are very reasonable and you get a lot of food, including soup, cheese rangoon and an egg roll in addition to your main item. Good flavor and attentive waiter to refill drinks. Overall, I good place to go.
(4)KingMat T.
So I do like this place I really do. The food is good but not great. I am a big fan of the sweet and sour chicken. The soups are a little bland but that's not the reason I eat CHINESE food anyway. I would recommend this place as a decent cheap quick fix if you are craving Chinese food.
(3)Candice K.
My fiance and I love good Chinese takeout (especially if they're open late). Being new to the area, we hopped on Yelp and decided to try Chen's... we were not disappointed. Good portions, fresh, and great for leftovers. Everything we've ordered has tasted great!
(5)Amanda Z.
Great food, every time. We are so glad we live close to this place. The quality is much better and more consistent than others we have tried since moving to AZ. Dine in and carry out, this place is fantastic!
(5)Jess T.
Food wasn't very good. It tasted like everything came off a frozen food truck. Very bland and little taste. The staff was just hanging around and eating out at the tables with other customers, speaking their native language and not that friendly. I won't be back.
(1)Robert G.
Bad place to eat, tastes like dog food, bland and no taste, I swear they use canned dog food or some garbage, this place I will never go to again!
(1)Monica B.
Like many have stated, Chen's serves Americanized Chinese food. That isn't to suggest that it isn't good. In fact, it quite good. We were promptly seated and given menus. The establishment is well kept and not too noisy. Friendly service of the mom and pop shop gives the place a comfortable feel. Appetizer soups came out only a minute after ordering, and by the time we finished our cups of soup, our HOT meals were on the table! The pan fried noodles were a little on the salty side, but tasted really good. The beef with snow peas was really good, especially after adding some chili sauce (which I asked for separately). Portion sizes definitely worth the money, and it's relatively inexpensive anyways. I would eat here over Panda Express any day! Better taste, waiter service, quieter and the personal touch of the owners running their business. Thank you!

Let me start by saying I am not a picky person... But when 3 of the 4 plates on our table had dried food still on them ( mine actually had a cement dried chunk of chicken glued to the back of it )... I figured I had to write something. The sheer filth didn't stop there... I took my kid into the bath room only to discover it hadn't been cleaned in something close to 10 years... My shoes were sticking to the floor from the stagnate urine, there was no towel paper and poop still in the toilet bowl. After returning to the table, the waiter came over to apologize in broken English to tell me the dishwasher was really backed up... We ended up leaving as I couldn't eat another bite... This place is great if your looking for cheap and want to attempt getting food poisoning.
(1)Lee Ann W.
Love Chen's! There food is very good, place is always packed with people. Tonight we enjoyed Orange Chicken, Lo Mein, Chicken, Fried Rice, and Crab Ragoon
(4)Brittany C.
First time eating here today, food was great, service was very quick. Lunch portions for price was great!
(5)Gabe S.
The food ad no flavor and the foods that say spicy have no heat the only good thing was pot stickers
(2)Ken G.
Solid choice for Chinese. Service is always fast, friendly and efficient. My go to place several times per week.
(4)Ray R.
Great food! Called in for pickup. Was hot and ready when I arrived in only 15 minutes. The Lemon Chicken was great. They even let us substitution some items for the dinner for two. Definitely will be eating their Chinese food again, only we'll eat there for the sit down experience.
(4)Morgan E.
American all the way
(2)Jt D.
Fast. Good food. Awesome prices and even better lunch specials.
(5)Lindsay T.
Love Chen's super fast and tasty. Haven't had anything bad here. Perfect for those nights where you just don't want to cook and you're hungry now.
(5)Rich K.
`Very good food! i am originally from Chicago, so i have ate some very good Chinese food, this place has authentic Chinese food, Nice size portions, and no carrot's, or green peas in the fried rice, YES. As with any eating out experience, the prices are fair to the market, for a family of 4, expect to spend 40 dollars or so, but worth it for a treat.
(4)Roger S.
As most of the other reviewers have stated, Chen's has good food, sparse decor, big portions, and great prices. I have come across a couple of decent "hole in the wall" Chinese places that are similar to this one, however Chen's is a bit more upper-scale than most in this category. It's VERY clean, well-lit, and the staff members are friendly and unusually fluent in English (That's a fact not a slam of any kind, BTW). The egg-drop soup is soup is the best that I've had anywhere, at any price!!!! I put a few drops of soy sauce in it.... stir..... and WOW!!!! The lunch specials are a great value and include an entrée, soup, a tiny salad, and an egg-roll. Many of the dishes that I've had elsewhere are served here, with a dark sauce rather than a light sauce. I find that I prefer that! I LOVE this place!!!
(4)Neil C.
This place is really good, I'm from San Fransisco bay area and thought China town had the best now I have finally found Chinese the way that it should be. Portions are large and the Chicken fried rice is the best, all the food is fresh and they are fast. Servers are nice, and the decor is sparse, but the food is well worth it.
(4)Chad A.
Nice little mom and pop. Good price, good food. I would say the food is better than average for Chinese in this part of town. I will definitely be going back. Lunch menu comes with soup and salad to start and an egg roll and cheese ragoon with the meal. So if you are looking for "Panda" there is one across the street, but I prefer the mom and pop.
(4)Tim S.
For what they do, Chen's is very good. Straight up American Chinese food with no pretense. I've even done phone orders while reading off another American Chinese restaurant's menu. If you're looking for a nice tub of fried rice or Chicken Teriyaki to nosh on with a few egg rolls then you have arrived. Eating in is very enjoyable. It's simple, clean, well-kept and usually has families in there which gives it a nice feel. The staff is helpful and efficient. We usually do take-out and usually on Friday evenings. I don't care when you call and I don't care how much you order, it will be ten minutes. Also, the guy on the phone will talk spectacularly fast. Just say, "Order for pickup" then give your order next, then say thank you, hang up the phone and show up there ten minutes later. I haven't had everything here but I've had several different things and they were all good. Portions were on the larger side, which is EXACTLY what you want when you are a guy and suddenly hungry for Chinese food. Keep up the great work, guys.

So decide to try this place on a whim and boy was it the biggest mistake of the day. Walk in around lunch time and was greeted and seated right away. My boyfriend ordered the orange chicken and I got the sweet and sour chicken. The lunch specials come with the following egg drop soup / iceberg lettuce w/ ranch / an over cooked bland egg roll / cream cheese puff / brown white rice ( its supposed to be fried rice) and then the main dish. Its a lot of food for $4.95 but its gross. The orange chicken and sweet and sour chicken had so much breading that you really didn't know if it really was chicken. My daughter had to use the bathroom and it was dirty and we saw a roach on its back alive. Also the lights are so dim in there that its hard to see. Maybe they did that on purpose. I would NEVER go back here again... Don't waste your money..... Panda's would have been a BETTER choice. I left hungry and disappointed...
(1)Wesley W.
Not bad... better than panda but not by much. Their "fried" rice that comes with the lunch special is hardly fried. Tastes like they poured soy sauce over white rice stirred it and called it good. The bbq pork chow mein wasn't horrible.
(2)Jami H.
We place to go orders at Chens a few times a month and couldn't be happier. Our food is ready in about 10 min from hanging up and always hot! You can't beat a lunch special for $4.95 and it's huge! This place is always packed. Good food, reasonable price and if you want a dish done differently, all you have to do is ask ( nothing here is very spicy, but if you ask for it to be spicy, they are happy to add the heat, etc.)
(5)Ivy V.
Chen's has pretty good Chinese food - my family and I are fans of the lemon chicken and General Tso's chicken. There are other staple favorites - the mooshoo wraps, angel crabs and egg drop soup are all great. The atmosphere has changed since it's been under new ownership/management. The new owners aren't as friendly and seem to rush you when you order. The portions are still healthy and big, though. The take-out service is VERY fast - within 10 minutes your food is ready and you still get complimentary rice. As far as the setting, they have new upholstery which has definitely modernized their look a bit.
(4)Britney T.
This is great Americanized Chinese food. Definitely the BEST in the far east valley. Every food item I have had from this restaurant has been great. Chen's is fast, cheap and delicious! Would recommend this to anyone looking for a good Chinese food place.
(5)Halise D.
Mediocre. Wonton soup as best thing I had. Ordered sesame chicken and it was deep fried ---yuck! Fiance ordered chicken chop suey which was salty. Not worth the drive to east Mesa.
(2)Steph S.
Yummy and the dinner for 2 will feed at least 5 just add extra egg rolls.
(5)Adam B.
I am also from San Francisco and I have to disagree with theother SF Bay Area reviewer. I've only eaten at Chen's twice and was disappointed both times. The vegetables were overcooked and the dishes lacked flavor overall. I do agree that the portions are a good size..
(2)Nicole P.
Most everything is tasty, though if you like the fried stuff, the sesame chicken is their defining dish. Coated in sesame seeds and a very wet honey, each bite draws you in... Until there is nothing left. Dont expect much personality from the servers/cashier, unless you're in the "older" crowd. The food is also done in about 10 minutes, regardless of time of day.
