“ Chen's is one of those great holdouts of traditional Chinese food that's still great. Yes, there's a robust takeout business, but this place is still a real sit down restaurant with great food and service. No store bought wonton crispy noodles here, only homemade. I got steal and my wife got chicken along with soup and egg rolls. All fresh and delicious. Love it and will be going back again and again. ”
“ My husband and I tried Chen's for the first time and were not disappointed. We started with egg drop soup. I haven't had an egg drop soup this flavorful in so long! I was delicious and the crunch from the complementary wonton strips really set things off. Next, I ordered the shrimp in hot garlic sauce with fried rice. My husband ordered the sesame chicken with fried rice. Both were absolutely delicious. My only critique is that I wish the sauce for the garlic shrimp was spicier, but other than that, no complaints! The staff were friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back to try some other items on the menu! ”
“ This is my favorite Chinese food place in Mechanicsville, very good food, I recommend the crab Rangoon! ”
“ We get takeout whenever in town to visit our kids and grandkids. Good portions and full of fresh and flavorful ingredients. ”
“ Would give this place 7 starts if I could. Excellent customer service. Got the beef teriyaki and the chicken fried rice and both were exceptional. Got both items within what seemed like seconds and was fresh and hot. Will keep going to this place. Manager or owner Benny was extremely friendly and made sure you were taken care of. ”
“ This was our first visit to Chen's and we CANNOT believe that this gem is just minutes away from where we live! Upon arrival, we were sat immediately and greeted by who we believe is either the manager or owner of the place. It definitely felt like a "homey" establishment which we love! We started off with the pork dumplings and chicken egg rolls which were phenomenal. We inquired about the spicy & tangy dumplings but were unsure. While we were waiting for our food to our arrive, the owner let us try the spicy & tangy dumplings and they were to die for. Seriously, I will be dreaming about them tonight. We ordered the crispy general tso beef as our entree to split and it was amazing too! We were so full but couldn't stop stuffing our faces because of how great all of the food was. I cannot recommend this place enough. Do yourself a favor, go to Chen's NOW! ”
“ Five stars for the warm and friendly family atmosphere, but the food failed to hit the mark and is more four stars. Ordered the staple General Tso's which I found to be too overfried and crispy, where instead you want to taste more tender chicken. The lunch specials are a great deal though, where you get soup and an egg roll for a reasonable price. The steamed dumplings were large but mostly dough vice filling. I liked the complimentary fried wontons and sauces they bring out, nice touch. Again, good value for the money, although I thought $3.50 for a diet coke was a tad high. Service was very good and attentive. I would go back for the lunch special and maybe try something else next time. ”
“ Delicious food Nice n friendly staff Small but homie I did try their chicken wings and I was not a fan BUT everything else was so good. We always get fried dumpling, general tso shrimp n lo mein ”
“ Overall the food was good, service was very attentive. Wonton soup was good, egg rolls were good as well. Main dish was Shrimp and broccoli in garlic sauce, the spice level was perfect. Being from NY I know very good Chinese food and this place held up to my expectations. ”
