“They have the best egg rolls. Their food and service has been good so far. I think I've only had one dish I wasn't happy about a while back and I don't remember but that's it. Overall, it's always been a good experience, fair price, and good food.“
“I had never tried southeast Asian cuisine. Even though I don’t know how they’re supposed to taste, I can tell the food is deliciously made!! It’s delicious as take out but it is even more amazing when you dine in and the food is piping “
“I have driven by this restaurant for 3 years and finally tried it. I wish I would have stopped sooner. A gem of a restaurant, with amazing food and great service. I am a sucker for breakfast so when I saw that they serve it until 230, I had to try. The Alaska Benedict was TO DIE FOR!! The Wasabi hollandaise was such a surprisingly delightful taste. The cucumbers and lemon added a flavor and crunch that I never knew I needed in my benedict. It also came with potatoes and brussel sprouts that blew me away. Seriously, you have to try it. I also ordered a Philly roll and it was the best I've had. The smoked salmon on the Benedict and the roll was so good. The breakfast menu looks fantastic, along with the regular menu. I absolutely will be returning, I need to make up for lost time!“
“We have been searching for decent “Chinese” food since moving to mchenry 8 months ago and NOTHING in the area was even close to being good. This was the first time I’ve had it since moving and I can FINALLY say we found the place. The egg rolls were so good, which is usually my biggest test on a place! The beef egg food young was also great, no big chunks of onions either. It was a good portion of ingredients, and the flavor was spot on. My husband had the chicken fried rice and orange chicken and he said it was really good - he usually says “it was fine” whenever we get Chinese, so this is a big compliment coming from him. The service getting the food was quick and still warm when we got it. I do remember coming here years ago, and remember it being really a great atmosphere and really good. So luckily with Uber Eats, we were able to have it delivered. I am thrilled to say I FINALLY found my go to spot!!!!“
“First time visit for husband and I to Yen Yen on recommendation of friend. Our favorite Chinese restaurant here in Des Plaines closed last year and we are looking for new favorite place. Yen Yen will definitely be our place to go., We went at lunch time. The menu is extensive, but we ordered our usual favorites of Sweet Sour Chicken and Beef Chop Suey. Both dishes were absolutely delicious, with all the ingredients we love. Our server was friendly and helpful in navigating the menu pages. The seating area is pleasant. Everyone was extremely welcoming when we entered and also attentive when we left. We will certainly return, and with our family members also.“
“I’m always excited about their stir fry bar! I’ve been here a couple of times. Pre covid this place was amazing and one of my favorite spots. When they reopened after Covid, it was meh. There was no stir fry bar and the food was subpar.I’m glad I visited again, and they are absolutely back in their game and were delivering delicious food! Stirfry bar is back and the food was divine. I tried green curry and yellow curry as sauces with thick flat noodles with Shrimp and it was amazing! Would recommend trying green curry and Penang if you like Spicy.Place was packed on Saturday night, reserve ahead if you can.“
“Yesterday I ordered for the first time food from here , my experience was great Phone order was easy and fast Food was ready in 10 minutes Singapore chow mein fun was generous and delicious with a perfect balance of ingredients Also ordered combination fried rice and was also delicious and good quality Thank you again and I will love to come back Note : I ordered Singapore chow mein fun from another restaurant in barrigton called Chinese palace and was full of oil and they were cheap with the meat , and gave me heartburn that is the reason I drove farther and I'm happy with the food provided“
“The best egg rolls in the Chicagoland area. I get around for good Chinese and can say a great egg roll is hard to find, but look no further! I usually get an order of BBQ pork and an order of egg rolls. The BBQ pork when it's good, it's great, but when it's not... Sometimes it's really tough/chewy...The rest of the food is great, and portions are great for the price.Unfortunately since covid, they are carry out only.“
“This restaurant has very good lunch specials. They are very extensive and include soup. Fried rice and spring rolls. I had Mongolian combo which had Chicken, beef and shrimp,It included Hot and Sour soup and fried rice. The good quality was very good. I definitely will be returning and looking forward to trying other menu items.“
“If you want the best food down in highland Park you should definitely try this place out honestly God I've been going here for years I just moved farther away so now I got to take a trip to get out here to to get the best Chinese food ever I love their combination rise or fried rice I love the sweet and sour chicken and I just like everything on the menu to be honest my family loves going here I always love going here again I just would like 2 hours away so I can't come here often but when I do The guide knows who the heck I am and ask about what's been happening besides that is the best service ever get they're quick fast and would recommend this to anybody and everybody“
“We only eat Chinese food from this family's place. It's NYC take out delicious which is a big deal. The portions are giant and everything is super fresh. Selection is great and all of the family eats it so I'm all in.The staff is always friendly and helpful and they always make sure I have any extras i may want. I've never been disappointed with the restaurant.Dietary restrictions: All you have to do is mention what you need different and vola it's done“
“Panda Chinese Restaurant is an outstanding restaurant located in Grayslake. I frequently order the General Tso's combination plate for takeout. Typically the order only takes about 10 minutes to make if you order from home. The service is friendly and quick. They have a lot to offer on their menu, so if you are in the area I highly recommend!“
“BEST Chinese take out in the areaWheelchair accessibility: I happen to be disabled & this is VERY frustrating, to say the least.Unfortunately, it is a shared parking lot with only 1 handicapped stall for the ENTIRE lot, that is NOT this establishment's fault in the slightest“
“Amazing food. Prices are good too. It could be tidier on the inside but overall it's good food. As of march 2023 there is still no dine in available since the pandemic but that does help the time for food to get to you be shorter. 100% recommend.“
“The food is always fresh. They’ll always get my order right. I’ve been coming here for 40 years! My adult kids live about 50 miles away but whenever they come to visit we ALWAYS get Ming Toy, nothing compares. My favorite is Chicken Hong Sue and the chicken is always perfect. My new son in law doesn’t have a Ming Toy favorite YET, so he tries a bunch of things, and EVERYTHING is great! Any friends who come back to Waukegan from out of town always stop for Ming Toy. It’s a treasure. ⭐️⭐️⭐️Parking: Parking is on the corner of Lewis and Yorkhouse. It’s tricky if you aren’t used to it, you really need to be careful.“
“Despite its small and minimal interior that may not be conducive to dining in. While the prices may be a tad higher compared to fast-food options like Panda Express, the authenticity of the cuisine makes it worth the expense. Although the service may not be exceptional, it's not necessarily a deterrent, especially if one anticipates it. Having visited twice now, I've found that the quality of the food remains consistently good, which speaks to the restaurant's commitment to delivering delicious dishes. While I wouldn't recommend dining in due to the limited interior, this restaurant is certainly worth considering for its authentic flavors and reliable quality. If you're in the mood for Chinese food that's a step above the usual fast-food fare, this place is a solid choice.“
“We heard about this place from friends who said we shouldn’t be deterred by the reviews (which are dated). Our friends couldn’t have been more right - Excellent food at excellent prices. Delivery was faster than the quoted time and the food was so hot we needed to wait a few minutes. Definitely our “go to” Chinese place. Chow fun and moo shu pork are excellent. Great egg rolls too.“
“I was craving sesame balls, and I'm glad I tried this place!They serve 8 sesame balls for ~$5, an amazing price. Even better, the owner and staff make the sesame balls from scratch! They are extremely fresh, chewy, sweet, and nothing like I've tried from other places.Definitely will come again to try other menus!“
“Maybe it’s because we also run a family business that this place feels special to us. Kudos to the family that runs this place. It’s not easy running a business, but it’s so cool to see everyone here working together. The food is classic Chinese take out and it never misses. We love the house special fried rice, sweet and sour chicken, and steamed dumplings. We order that at least once a week.“
“I love this food. I can’t describe what I felt when I tasted the fried rice. It was like I was getting a back massage in the sun while drinking a smoothie. I would go here everyday if I can. The one person working, works very hard. This is absolutely amazing. I would recommend to go here any day.Parking: Great.“
“The best Chinese food I’ve had in lake county. Rice , egg foo young and egg rolls perfect. I’ve tried finding Chinese food that taste like Chicago, and this is it. Thank you for giving us as customers what we pay for. Jumbo Shrimp fried rice really good !“

“Food is always delicious and the service is great. Can get a bit crowded during prime dinner hours but there's always take out if you'd like to eat at homeParking: Plenty of spots to park including handicap near the doorWheelchair accessibility: The curb has been modified to allow wheelchair“
“I work down the street from Chinn's for about 20 years and tried to have lunch there every opportunity. It was such a bargain and the food was so delicious. I don't think the fish could've been fresher if you would've had the meal on the coast or in Hawaii. the prices have gone up a bit so lunch is not quite the bargain used to be, but then again, everybody's prices are gone up I especially like the grouper, and on the rare occasion what I feel like splurging split the crab with my granddaughter.“
“Food was great and flavorful. Very good sized portion for a lunch special. I would recommend take-out though. Not the cleanest place. I was afraid to touch the soy sauce bottle or salt and pepper shakers. The table top was sticky. My napkin would stick to table. The smell walking in the front door was a bit off too. Friendly service though!“
“Usually in there around lunchtime. Lunch Combos and Specials have large portions, and each dish has a distinct taste. I've never gotten a bad order from China Kitchen. Good pricing for Lunch menuParking: There are 4 places to get food on this strip. Parking comes in waves throughout the lunch break. Not bad if there at begining or towards end of lunch break“
“The ambiance is like the usual Chinese buffet. But what I like is that the variety of food they have.The service was good.On the interesting side is that there is a gaming room available for the online gamers, and i think it's a different entity.The food was good. We had a great brunch.“
“My experience was both positive and negative. The food was pricey but well worth it since you can get 2 or 3 meals out of it. My wife's sesame chicken had an abundance or sweet and sour sauce. Too much for her taste. My shrimp eggs foo young was great along with the egg rolls. My pickup experience was terrible. The sign says "ring the bell"to notify them you're there. After 3 rings and 5 minutes with no response I called them to let them know I was there. They finally came out, no apology just pushed the order thru the plastic and sign the receipt. Not even a thank you. I trust this rudeness was just the result of a bad day and not par for the course.“
“me and my friend got two entrees with a couple sides. we were very impressed by the portion sizes and high quality ingredients. my beef mei fun had a lot of good tasting beef, carrots, bamboo shoots, lettuce and celery and mushrooms, all for $13. the singaporean chicken noodles has interesting flavor with a lot of chicken, bbq pork, carrots, mushroom celery and lettuce, all for $13. The crab rangoon is also VERY fresh and delicious, the accompanied sweet and sour sauce is also very delicious. We would definitely order from this place again and try the other menu options. The service is very kind, mom and pop shop, and they cook very fast in 10-20 minutes.“
“The people running this place are so kind and nice.Everytime we've come here, the food comes out so fast and tastes amazing!100% recommend cherry pork and their amazing crunchy egg rolls, best I've had!Look forward to our next visit.“
