What our customers say

Reviews

Amazing food!! Their Mongolian beef is the best and I really like the hot and sour soup. The people who work there are always really nice and quick to cook my food.
Jenna Smith
My favorite! Best hot and sour soup ever! The staff is always on it! Whether Lunch or dinner, dine-in or takeout the portion sizes are generous. I will be back.
Jennifer Oestrike
Not only is it possibly the best Chinese food ever, but portion sizes are wonderful, not to mention the freshness of it! I highly recommend Chen Express, you'll love it!!
Chris Vickers
Excellent service, quality of food, and preparation for takeout! We are very selective about where we eat and Chen Express gets top marks from us. Our favorite is chicken sizzling rice.
Ginger Wallach
Chen Express is the best Chinese take-out restaurant. Everything I've ever had from Chen Express is amazing. I haven't had one experience that was less than spectacular.
Cavan Edney
This is the best quick pick-up for Chinese food! The steamed dumplings are delicious. The sesame chicken is my fave. The egg rolls are perfectly crunchy! Delicious food!
