This is a good choice for Hunan and Sichuan-style cooking with some home-style flare. Dishes are slightly made for an American palate from this family restaurant. The attention to detail is excellent which makes dining here very enjoyable. What is notable is that every dish is not overly seasoned nor greasy. This is not a Chinese greasy spoon. Most entrees' pricing pushes fine dining price points at nearly $20. The lunchtime specials are very reasonable giving you a nice variety of flavors. The decor is clean and may resemble a tea room, but you'll feel at home with the good service.

I really love the food here. They are very nice. They also deliver the fried rice is amazing. My husband really likes compa chicken. It is really spicy. The soups are really good. Specially the chicken soup if you have a tummy ache or if you have a cold highly recommended And they have takeout. I really hope this is a good review for the people around the neighborhood. Remember, we don't wanna lose our very good restaurants. This is amazing Chinese food one of the best in town. I hope you be here. Also, this is one of the few restaurants that still serve you tea in the little tiny cups, which is amazing, I really love the service. I cannot say enough about this place. The food is delicious.

I ordered take-out from Hunan Yuan last night to celebrate the Lunar New Year. After and unfortunate mishap in the parking lot, the owners replaced the food and saved the night. I brought the food home to my family and everyone thought it was delicious. Thank you for your service, delicious food and saving the night. I will return.

I've been waiting to try Hunan Yuan for a while and got the chance tonight. We got hot and sour soup, steamed dumplings, shrimp in lobster sauce and house soft noodles. Soup wasn't hot or sour but had good flavor. Lots of veggies and meat, which Ive never had. Dumplings were pork potstickers, absolutely no flavor. Shrimp with lobster sauce had little flavor and noodles had none. Blandest Chinese food we've ever had! Service was good but on the slow side. Appears to be family run! Sad that it wasn't what we expected!

My family and I tried out hunan yuan for dinner. The food was okay. We were unimpressed by the orange chicken, which was a large disappointment. The garlic noodles were really good, the fried rice was just good, and the egg drop soup was great. The honey walnut shrimp was the best part of our meal. There are better local options. I didn’t do a price comparison with other local Chinese restaurants, but if they are lower priced, then they’d be worth it.

I've been to Hunan yuon once before, and this order was not quite as good but still a very good Chinese option. I got the orange chicken which was really crispy. The chicken was delicious. The sauce was good overall a great dish. I also got the hot and sour soup which wasn't quite sour enough and the flavor wasn't as sharp as I normally like but it was definitely better than a lot of other places out there. I also got the Kung pow chicken and I found that to be pretty bland, even though I asked for it spicy, so that was really the only disappointing dish here.

Ok first off never been here before but wanted to try it. We called for pick up, lady was very nice, food was ready for pick up when the time came. However when we went home and I went to transfer some food to a plate at home we found a bug in the food. Hopefully this is a one off but still i was disheartened.

Hunan Yuan is our favorite Chinese Food restaurant. Food is always fresh and delicious and the service is wonderful. We try to dine in when possible, but its also a great option for take out. They give you plenty to eat and the prices are good. Unlike another popular Chinese Food restaurant in town, they are always so friendly and treat customers like friends.

Great food. The large portions enable my wife and I to each get 2 meals out of every order. Reasonable prices, quick service, extensive menu and tasty food.

The shrimp with lobster sauce and an order of won ton soup is an amazing combo for two....or you know....one really hungry person.
