I stopped by here today for lunch with my father. For as many years as I have lived close to Chan's, I had never actually been there. That all changed due to a recent mailing that I received from them showing their lunch specials to be reasonably priced. Upon entering the restaurant I was actually quite impressed by the cleanliness of the place, the decor and open floor plan. They have what looks like an awning running around the inside and some giant Chinese vases. After we were seated the waitress came over almost immediately with some waters and also a pot of hot tea. For lunch I decided to go with the Hunan Beef, extra spicy with fried rice and a bowl of hot and sour soup. The soup came out first and had a nice tartness to it as well as some vegetables and what looked like some ground beef. Almost immediately after we had finished our soup, the meals came out. There were nice portions of both the fried rice and the hunan beef. All of the vegetables from the hunan beef had a nice crispness to them and the beef tasted good as well. The real star though was the sauce which had a nice flavor and also a bit of spiciness although not too spicy. By the end of the meal I was full and very satisfied although not too full and it had only taken us about 25 minutes. I am sure if we had wanted to that we could have eaten at a more leisurely pace but since it was lunch time we were happy to have that pace. The bottom line for me is that I would head back to Chan's again. I enjoyed both the decor of the restaurant as well as the food and thought that the food was better than most of the other Chinese restaurants around.

Really good limited menu Chinese. They concentrate on dishes/sauces they have perfected unlike some Chinese places that list two pages of Chef's Specials (aka expensive usually) and another four pages of staples like General Tso's chix. We noticed a lot of folks eating the "pu pu platter" including sterno for roasting what looked like pork ribs. Light white sauce on scallops/shrimp is delicate. Great service. Nice atmosphere. Cocktails/beer available. Bathroom was very neat and clean.

Best chinese food, been coming here for years nothing compares. Fried rice is amazing but gotta get the meal the side isn't as good.

I stopped in here today with my partner for lunch. We reside in Brighton Heights and were not aware of this restaurant, until friends told is that they love it. First thing we noticed was how exceptionally clean it was. We also were amazed at how friendly the staff was. Food was very tasty: We ordered steamed potstickers for an appetizer. They tasted really good, my partner loved the sauce that came with them. I had Kung Pao Chicken: I was thrilled that it came with grilled white meat chicken. I cleaned my plate, so it must have been good. My partner had peppered steak and he said that it was really good. We noticed that they had a steady stream of take out orders come in while we were eating. They seemed to know everyone by name which was a nice touch. Everyone loves to be personalized and recognized...

I found the place by accident, and stopped in to get the standard fried rice. I have been back four times since, have gotten the shrimp fried rice every time, and some other generic chinese food item. I really really like the place. It is not your average store front Chinese place that has a few chairs and ratty tables, the screaming child in a crib behind the counter, and greasy horrible food that makes you wonder why you keep trying to get food at Chinese places in plazas. You know the place. They all have that same two sided color menu on a shiny sheet of paper, all the same items, and it all greasy and terrible. This place is an actual sit down restaurant. It is NOT dark and / or dingy like the other review states, must be talking about some other Chan's Tea House... Anyways, it is also not the kind of Chinese food you will find in say, San Francisco or L.A. or New York. It is very typically mid-western Chinese. It looks like something from the 1950's or 60's. Very retro looking. And the food is excellent. To me. Now, I have eaten Chinese food that I assume folks are writing about when they say "real" Chinese food. Since I have been in China. This is not it. You cannot get steamed jellyfish and pigs ears here. What you do get, is very well prepared food, that tastes like what you got when you were a kid, and went to your favorite Chinese restaurant with your family. It is always busy for dinner, a good sign, and the food comes out quickly, and very hot. And, for me the most important thing, the hot mustard is house hot mustard that will lift off the top of your head. I love the stuff. Exquisitely hot! And, the food is not greasy by American Chinese food standards. And, I love the fried rice. It is well seasoned, has plenty of meat, and has bean sprouts in it. Eat here, you won't be disappointed, as long as you don't want something like ox-knuckle soup or pig intestines in broth. Then again, who knows? I have been to a few Chinese places that hide the "real" food from the round-eyes, you have to know how to ask for it. Maybe I will try that next...

My absolute favorite Chinese in Pittsburgh by far. As a native pittsburgh-ear I've tried most Chinese places around town and this one takes the cake. Delicious and generous portions. Great shrimp fried rice and I could eat the egg rolls all day everyday. Definitely worth a try!

This is the second closest Chinese food resturant to my house. With that being said I am crushed to report that it stinks here. The decor is out dated and dark, not very welcolming for lunch. The attitude of the wait staff and owners is poor, they lack any interest in running a resturant that serves good food. The food is served luke warm. The hot and sour soup is stringy and cold . The food is flavorless. There are serveral senior communities around this shopping center , so possbily they're making extra bland food to suit the taste of the elderly patrons. This is watered down Chinese food, that's easy on the gums.

If your starving, this is the place to come. You'll leave stuffed and satisfied everytime. The prices are very reasonable too!

After having lived in the area for years, and having eaten there one other time, many years ago, I looked forward to our take out order. That was, until we actually started eating. My wife's chicken chow mein was very bland, soupy, and mostly onions, with very little chicken, and small pieces of what chicken there was. My shrimp lo mein was also unsatisfactory, and overcooked. The fried dumplings were, as just about all of the rest of the food, riddled with onions. The sauce for the dumplings was too ginger-heavy for either our tastes. The kicker? After placing our order over the phone, I asked how long, and was told ten minutes. At first, that sounded great, but then you realize that's only because so much of their food is pre-made, and likely sitting around waiting to be microwaved just before they expect you. Not satisfied, and not going back. Ever.

I really enjoyed this place. We found it by accident. It was raining and we had gone to a shop nearby and decided to have dinner here. The place is located in a "blah" shopping center. You open the door and expect to see a run-of-the-mill Chinese buffet with crap food. To our delight, it was a sit-down and get a waitress type restaurant! We order the appetizer platter for two, which came with a flaming grill. It was really tasty - but pretty average - possibly slightly better than average. Now the food we order was pretty awesome. The General Tso's Chicken was the most impressive as it wasn't all coated in 4 pounds of greasy batter. It was chicken breast cut into large chunks with WONDERFUL sauce on it -- not that gross jelly-like substance many of the buffets use. SOOOOOOOOOOOO Tasty! If you go there - you have to have it! We will definteily be going back to this restaurant. AS for the atmosphere -- it was pretty nice. If they lost those tacky red Chinese Horoscope place mats and went with plain white ones.......their decor would be way above average for a Chinese place. I'd say that was my only complaint. The placemats cheapened the place. Other than that --- EAT THERE at least once!
