At first glance, this place looks very inviting! Both on the outside as well as inside. The hostesses greeted us promptly and before seating us, my sister noticed a specials board above the hostess stand. She asked the hostess if the specials were printed in the menu somewhere and she informed us they were not so make sure to read the board before being seated! The restaurant is very comfy/casual but seemed kinda empty for the 7 o'clock hour on a Tuesday. We were not greeted by our server nearly as quickly as the hosts. When she finally made her way over, I was pleased to see she greeted us with ice water! I found it weird that she set the ice water on the tables and THEN put the cocktail napkins next to the glasses. I know it was intended for additional beverages but only one of us ordered something besides the water so it didn't make much sense. I did ask the server for a straw and she brought it to me with her bare hands and put it in my glass of water. I was a little put back because she had just been handling menus and serving trays moments prior so I wasn't a fan of the bare hands. Later in the meal, my sister asked the busboy for a straw for her beverage and he was wise enough to bring it wrapped in a napkin. Good job, busboy guy! You made me very happy. We ordered an app of fried potstickers per our servers recommendation. The potstickers were not quite as fried as they should have been. They were not really browned or even very hot throughout. I was a bit disappointed but seeing as no one checked back on us, we didn't have the opportunity to give our feedback on the potstickers. I guess they will have to read my review to find out. The dish I ordered was the basil garlic chicken. I specifically asked if it was white meat chicken and the server informed me it was. After being served the dish, I'm about 95% certain there was dark meat in the dish. My sister told me she thought it was white meat but I think she may have been fibbing to me much like the server did earlier. My nephew got a sushi roll: the volcano roll that sounded good on the menu but was served on a huge plate so it literally looked like a smaller portion than our appetizer we shared. We both encouraged him to order a second roll or even a soup or something but he said it was enough so we left it at that. My sister ordered the black pepper chicken and while it looked visually appealing, I had a bite, and it had a distinct seafood-y flavor. Like it had been fried with some fish or something. Gross!!! Finally, the bill took a while to be taken off the table with our card so that was a bit irritating kinda being "held hostage". Honestly, I would prefer to go to TL's in Bartlett. At least they include soup or salad with your entree there and it's consistent. read more

I'm not a huge Chinese food fan, so I'm not the best judge. Usually when I come here I get the pork pot stickers and the chicken dumplings. I would suggest these as appetizers and not meals. They are both delicious! Most of my friends get the seven flavor chicken. I liked the flavor of the chicken but I didn't like the meat quality, it was kind of rubbery to me. But I rarely like the meat quality at most Chinese places so it may be my personal preference. I think they need to expand the menu. I'm disappointed that they don't have any lettuce wraps. If you don't like sushi there is not many low carb options which is why I think they need to get salad options and lettuce wraps. Those options are also good for people who are not huge Chinese food fans. I don't believe they have any dessert options either, which is missed sales in my opinion. The new manager is very nice and I hope he takes this place to the next level and expands the menu! I've updated my review to 2 stars. The food has been served cold a couple of times and hardly anyone was in the restaurant when we were served. read more

8000 Miles - Chocolate banana wonton dessert $5 (half eaten) - Chinese Near Me - Roselle, Illinois

By far my favorite Chinese food in years. We've gone twice in the past two weeks and haven't been disappointed in the slightest. All the food has so much flavor. Servers were quick and attentive. We truly had no complaints. Favorites so far are the Godzilla roll and Sesame chicken. Not pictured but also we're a hit: orange chicken, garlic black pepper chicken, and chicken fried rice. Dinner portions are huge by the way. :) read more

Great food, the ambiance of the dining room is fantastic. I haven't had anything on the menu that I wouldn't have again.

One of most favorite restaurants in Roselle. We are walking distance from 8000 miles so we frequent here quite often. Though short staffed, they run a great business. The food is always on point no matter if it's dine in or carry out. I recommend going through the actual restaurant if doing carry out (not door dash etc). The crab Rangoon dip is ...well, what's more amazing than amazing? Thank me later. The Geisha cocktail is one of my favorites as well. I love sitting at the bar area and relaxing over cocktails and appetizers! Enjoy! read more

Food is wonderful. Service is good. Ambiance is awesome. Love this place. It's the main place I order from for Chinese/sushi

So, I placed a large order $70+. My honey glazed flank steak. Was tepid, reheated and TOUGH. I called to complain. After speaking to 2 people I was directed to a third person who offered me s $10 credit ON MY NEXT ORDER UNDER THE SAME PHONE NUMBER. My dinner was awful. Why would I want to order again? Covid 19 obviously has taken it's toll. Restaurants are cutting corners. Unfortunately the prices haven't decreased. Go somewhere else. The prior level of quality has gone out the window. This used to be my splurge Asian restaurant. Now it is off my list. Why offer me a future discount for a bad meal? I should have received a credit on my bad meal!!!! Do I really want to order again? NO!!! I need to spend money with discretion. I won't return to a restaurant thst will not acknowledge poor food quality. And neither should you!!! read more

Their chongquin chicken and crab Rangoon's are amazing. Really love their food and eat there every time I'm in Chicago.

Pleasant surprise! We rarely ordered Chinese but our black pepper beef and shrimp wide noodles were delivered steaming hot and delicious! We will definitely try another of their wide array of choices next time. Reasonably priced, large portions, quick delivery! read more

We decided to try this one more time but am sorry I invested $17.00 for Crispy Honey Sesame Beef. Was described as "flank steak marinated, wok-crisped". I have no idea what flank steak they used but it ends not tasting 'lean' but super chewy. Then, it's encased like it's concrete. Too bad there wasn't more of the actual 'honey sauce' -the flavor was good but there was so little of it to add to my rice and broccoli, just ridiculously DRY. Felt like the rest of my sauce went to someone else's Take-out? The best thing we got were the $5 Spring rolls. If you want to keep local customers coming back, stop over-charging them for low-quality beef that ends up in the garbage! I have always loved Asian food but I will NOT be back to 8000miles. read more

Staff was super friendly and attentive despite being under staffed. Everything we got was delicious. We got the crispy rice and a bunch of sushi rolls. Will definitely add 8000 miles to our usual rotation of restaurants. Can't wait to go back! read more

Have eaten here a handful of times and the food has been mediocre. Out of all the dishes we have tried nothing really stands out that would make me want to keep coming back.

How do I begin? Firstly the owners of this fine establishment Shaun and Ben have always proven they do what they say about quality and service! I asked months ago in a meeting with them if they would open on a Monday for a surprise party for my wife, now knowing they are usually closed Mondays I expected a no but they said enthusiastically of course. We had about 25 people and a preset menu done by Shaun, Ben and myself, I requested Ariel and John to assist with the serving and bar tending. Not only was my wife super surprised and so happy, my very good friends were absolutely blown away by the food, decor, ambiance and sheer experience of this great place. There are no words or dollar amount that could describe the sheer joy for my party guests especially my wife! So 8000 miles thank you for making a memory with my wife she will never forget!

Great service! Perfect atmosphere. Food is ridiculously good! Get the crab Rangoon dip!

Always disappointed. Been here 5 or 6 times. Tried Chinese and sushi dishes. We never had a dish that we would order again. One star for nice outdoor seating and nice location. I just wish their food was better. read more

This was once an undiscovered treasure in downtown Roselle. Sadly, it seems to be on a fatal and steady decline. Once they featured fresh and attractive(read delicious)cusine but new ownership is rumored and of course Covid has impacted staffing. About a month ago, a friend and I had lunch there and to my dismay, the quality has gone down hill. Thinking this just might be a "bad day", we returned and discovered that no...this is a downward spiral ala kamikaze. I understand patience due to "staffing issues" but cold soup on both occasions and a "fishy" taste on an expensive appetizer combined with the use of stale oil in cooking the fried portions made this a do not return. Sadly this friendly neighborhood place has lost mileage! read more

Disappointing to see a place that started great get so bad with service. Ordered out tonight (September 21st) and showed up 35 mins later to pick up. Was told the food would be ready in 30 mins. Surprised, I asked why. The young man at the front desk said it was because the "cooks were so bad and disorganized". Did not expect that reply. Service here has gone down over the years but seems to have hit an all time low. Would score lower but giving two stars as I have enjoyed the food here in the past and I would like to think the cooks know what they are doing until their team mate's report on them. read more

Food was amazing. Service was even better. Nikki is the best. She said she's new but feels like she knew the menu very cheerful. Will return and hope we get her again. read more

I went here for the first time for my family Christmas dinner. After reading some of bad reviews left by others I was worried how the food and experience would be. THEY WERE WRONG!!!!!! I was immediately greeted by some wonderful people that were super cheerful even after i had to cancel my previous reservation for 7 due to a party member not feeling well. The food was great and was ready in a timely manner which was great after a long day out celebrating. I even requested for the Mongolian beef to be extra extra extra spicy and did they deliver!!!!!!!! Overall, it was a great experience and great meal. I will 100% be back and would recommend giving this place a shot for yourself!!!!!!!!!! read more

$50 for two chicken fried rice/ 1 beef fried rice and pot stickers? oh and steamed white rice..? Is something wrong with this picture? i wouldn't be complaining if the food was actually worth that but my husband was EXTREMELY disappointed in the food!!! how do i even get my money back on this tasteless food???? read more

Had a HUGE portion of the pad tai which I loved. Yakisoba noodles tasted great (though not made from buckwheat noodles which is how authentically they're made) But nevertheless, awesome umami flavor . The cashew pineapple fried rice was wonderful too. Natasha was very polite in serving us read more

Great spot in Roselle for an Asian meal. There are several vegetarian options, many of which are or can be made vegan. I definitely recommend the Kung Pao tofu! Dinner options are on the larger side - I always end up with leftovers. Service is fine. The outdoor seating in warmer weather is a big plus. read more

My dining calendar is really starting to book up with all these fantastic, new businesses opening in the area, and with the recent opening of 8000 Miles... well, let's just say this is perfect timing to turn my useless kitchen into the closet I've always wanted. The experience I had at 8000 Miles was an exceptional one for a place that had just opened 4 days prior. Besides a bit of lag time first getting a server to our table, the service after that was on point most of the items I ordered were easily deserving of 5-stars. My dining partner had a few more critiques for 8000M than I did, but I think that stems from our different dining styles. The menu is described as Asian-fusion and our server let us know that the beginning half of the menu leans more towards Chinese while the latter half of the menu is more Japanese. My dining partner went with a dish that leaned toward Chinese flavors, and I went with sushi. We started with the veggie spring rolls, which were pretty plain. The menu mentioned a bunch of stuff inside the spring rolls, but to us from looks and taste, it seemed just like shredded cabbage wrapped in a wonton skin and fried. I likely wouldn't get this again, plus you only get two relatively small spring rolls for $4. I could understand if there was a decent mixture of veggies, but there really wasn't and this dish just fell kind of flat for me. Next up, I had to get a bowl of miso because it's tradition for me at any place that offers it. The miso was perfect... albeit about a dollar more than it would have been at other area restaurants, I can be okay with that for good this dish was. My partner got the Buddha's Vegetables plate ($9) that's a mixture of shanghai bok choy, broccoli, carrots, winter bamboo, smoked organic tofu and napa cabbage wok tossed in vegetarian oyster sauce. It looked good, but again, the dish was just lacking a bit of something. The flavor wasn't spectacular and it would've been nice to see the dish come with a soup or salad or something, but it's a decent vegetarian option, not great. Certainly deserving of 3-stars, but fell short compared to what I'd ordered. Like I mentioned, my meal consisting of various sushi plates was pretty spectacular. Or at least most of it was. The only exception being the Harvest Roll ($9) with daikon, carrots, cucumber, avocado, Japanese squash, tempura sweet potato, and asparagus, wrapped in soy paper. To me, the Harvest Roll was lacking flavor beyond tempura and I'm really not a fan of that when it comes to sushi. The Spice Lover's Roll with Tuna was absolutely phenomenal. Probably one the best roll's I've ever had (coming from spice lover). I'll absolutely be getting at least one of these on every one of my return visits. Another must: Crispy Rice (house sushi rice is crisped and formed into squares, topped with a mixture of spicy salmon, sliced jalapenos, scallions, tempura spinach and beet crunch) at $8 for 4 pieces. I couldn't get enough of this item found on the small plates menu. 8000 Miles would be a a great girl's night hang, but a little loud to try anything more intimate than that. Musts: -Crispy Rice (small plates) -Spice Lover's Roll w/ Tuna -Miso Soup Mehs: -Spring Rolls -Buddha's Vegetable Not perfect yet, but has enough stars on the menu to warrant the early declaration of future and frequent return visits from yours truly. read more

This place is walking distance from Lynfred winery - less than 1 block. Perfect place to come after sipping on some wine (some = several glasses). I am not familiar with this suburb, but the area seemed cute and well maintained. We had a reservation for 5:45 via Open Table, which I love and think all restaurants should be required to used. We got there early and they sat us with no problem. The place wasn't even 1/2 full. Even when we left a few hours later, it was still only about 1/2 full. If I lived in the area, this would be a go-to place to eat for me. Group of 5, and 4 of us were driving, so we layed off the liquor. I really-really-really wanted to try one of their martinis or the mai-tai, but sadly, did not. Next time I'll bring a DD with me. We started with 3 apps - calamari, crab rangoon, and sichuan dumplings. All were good, but the sauce on the dumplings was spot-on and spicy. 3 of the group went with sushi and said everything was good and the fish was fresh. I think they split 5-6 rolls. I opted for the hot wok chili chicken, which was supposed to be one of their spiciest dishes. It was really good. Now, I love heat and this was a good amount, but I could have handled more. The portion was huge and there were tons of fresh veggies and chicken and chili peppers. I would highly recommend this dish to anyone and I would have a hard time not ordering it again, even though there are a few others on the menu I'd like to try. Dessert was ordered, but I was too full to even try anything. Everything looked good though. The place has a good menu - a wide variety - good prices and nice sized portions. Service was ok, nothing special, not overly friendly. The space is pretty nice - open, airly, clean lines, modern. . read more

We were excited to see a new restaurant open up in an accursed location that had once jointly housed the incredibly incompetent Morning Glory Cafe plus a Latin American restaurant that closed up shop before we could even try it. While 8000 Miles still has a bunch of kinks to work out, I couldn't be happier to have a restaurant like this open up in sleepy Roselle! As you will learn from reading the last page of the menu, they are co-owned by the owner of TL's Four Seasons, a similarly schmancy Asian fusion restaurant in Bartlett. Some of the dishes are the same; for example, the spicy beef appetizer which my partner loves. For drinks, I ordered a house-made ginger ale and the fuji-tini. The ginger drink wasn't bad, but as a ginger-lover I'll have to say it pales in comparison to Big Bowl's -- it was just very sweet and not gingery enough. The fuji-tini was quite tasty. My partner ordered the sake flight which we heartily enjoyed. Our favorite was the dewatsuru "kimoto." The "silk deluxe" was good too, but the "omachi" was too bland for our taste. My Buddha's vegetables dish was great except the smoked tofu part. They initially forgot to include any tofu, and when I got the redo, there were only three slices of cold, unseasoned tofu. All the veggies were delicious and fresh, so I think there was just a weird slip-up here. The veggie lover's roll was good, though could've been more flavorful. Less cucumber, more pickle/mushroom, perhaps? Service was very attentive. We were overcharged $1 for the sake flight, however it was fixed immediately when we mentioned it. I'm going with an optimistic rating for now, and I hope they'll be more on top of things when we come back soon to try again! read more

Catching up on my reviews. I have stopped in here twice now and discovered that I like this place. Have had the sushi (pretty good), Schezwan green beans, (very good) and Shrimp Lo Mein (excellent). I like my food on the spicy side and they nailed it both times. A large portion of tasty noodles with some veggies along with a whole bunch of shrimp. So fresh tasting! Honestly, I think this was the best Lo Mein I have eaten and I have eaten a lot of this dish. Atmosphere + service was OK, and so were the prices. I will be returning for sure to get my Lo Mein fix. They do take out too. Cheers to all read more

Poor service. The hostess was not very bubbly or friendly. She scowled at me several times, as if she didn't trust me. But, my waitress was really nice, however, she did not remove discarded garbage and silverware fast enough. This restaurant has a rustic, lofty feel to it and I enjoy the red and brown color scheme. The chairs are old and need to be refurbished, but the booths are beautiful. The music is very good as well. I had some miso soup, iced green tea and a coors lite beer. All in all, I think this restaurant needs to work on hospitality and more upbeat customer service skills. 8000 miles has all the aspects to make it a booming business, but needs to revamp their staff on diversity training and customer service. read more

I orderer the Spider Roll because I was craving freshly made sushi and tempura soft shell crab. What I got was a left over sushi roll from the day before? A lot about it taste old, especially the essentials. The rice taste like it was sitting there all day. A little hard and dry. The tempura soft shell crab just didn't taste like it was tempura. Tempura is supposed to be crunchy. Mine was dry, chewy, and old tasting. Did they even cook it? Was it just thawed ans served? I've had better tasting spider rolls from the delis in groceries. For the price I paid for this... it was not worth it. It really feel like I got cheated. Avoid the spider roll. Or any sushi if they treat all their sushi like this... or just order the California roll. Ar least they cannot mess that up... read more

So I currently reside in Bartlett and when I heard that one of the owners from TL's was opening up shop with another small business owner, I knew I had to check them out. Life got in the way, but tonight the stars aligned and I was off to Main Street in Downtown Roselle. The entrance looks inviting as were the hostesses. They were greeting us before we even made it in the door. There were some specials on a menu board over the host stand that we took a moment to read through. The dining room was maybe 20% full on this Tuesday evening at 7:30. Water glasses were kept full and extra white rice was no problem to get quickly. Our waitress could use some polishing. Bringing an unwrapped drinking straw with her bare hands and placing it in the glass was the thing that stuck out to me the most. Although the gentleman filling water glasses brought a straw wrapped in a paper napkin, so I think that faux pas was specific to the waitress and not the restaurant. Our meals were fine. Nothing exciting or enough to send me running back. The basil garlic chicken was requested as white meat only. We were told that it already was, but I really don't think so. I told my sister that it was to appease her, but I'm pretty sure I was rocking the thigh meat in the bites I tasted. My son's sushi roll looked lost on the giant plate he received. When it arrived, I immediately suggested that he order more food and he declined. Finally, my crispy black pepper beef was overcooked and tasted like seafood. I didn't mind the seafood undertone since I enjoy shrimp, but my sister and son noticed it prominently and wouldn't eat the dish. And the potstickers...I almost forgot. Pan fried to a milky white color! The waitress suggested fried rather than steamed, but the potstickers spent very little time in the pan based on all appearances and the lukewarm centers. The menu was very similar to TL's with a few twists including an option for family style with six or more guests. I don't think I'll make my way back to 8000 Miles since TL's is closer to home, has the service down to a science and the food has me thinking about our next meal there. read more

This is the second time I've been to this location and the first time was great but I was disappointed the second time around. Although the drinks are great, the service wasn't at all. The waiter told a couple of jokes but then service went down hill. Jokes turned into insults and a lack of professionalism which included sarcasm when my friend asked about the menu items. We were a big party of 25 and the waiter didn't tell us that kids eat free on Sunday's which we didn't see the sign until after we paid. When we brought it to the managers attention he just shrugged and gave half an apology and did nothing. The food is mediocre but I would go elsewhere for this type of service and "just ok" food. My friend likes to eat here for his birthday and most of the guests drive over an hour away to join but we won't be picking this place again. read more

3 stars. We went on a Thursday night at 6 it was about half full which is expected for a relatively new restaurant. The interior was very well decorated and designed. A lot of open space, high ceilings make for a comfortable setting. The problem is the dining room projects sound so even though it was half empty the place was loud and lively. We ordered: Chong Ching Fish Soup: Serves 2, its basically fish filets with some pickled greens in soup with some cellophane noodles. (8.00) Its not bad, definitely spicy enough, I don't think its anything special though, just fish filets in some broth. Bbq Eel Maki: Kind of rough looking, their sushi chef needs more practice. There was barely enough rice to cover the seaweed wrapper. (See picture) (6 bucks) Spider Roll: Good, the soft shell crab was fried well also the portion was larger (See picture). (11.00) Housemade Ginger ale (3.00) not bad but a tad too sweet. Basically tastes like ginger and sugar. Overall I'd best describe this place as an "asian" restaurant designed for white people or "Americanized" pallets. The service was kind of slow and our waiter wasn't too attentive and seemed to have a cold. They also wouldn't let me bring in my bottle of unsweet iced tea which was kinda like saying "we want YOU to spend money on OUR drinks damnit!" I'm not totally sure where to categorize this restaurant, its not the best sushi restaurant near here, nor is it the best chinese restaurant but its got elements of both. There are hits and misses and the service and speed needs work. Being brand new I'm willing to overlook a few things but it seems to me this place isn't really ready for primetime or a full packed friday night yet. read more

Interesting concept with both Chinese and sushi on the menu. This restaurant reminds me more of Pl8 than it does TL's four seasons due to the decor choices and silverware. The food wasn't spectacular but it was solid for classier Chinese in the suburbs. The two dishes I liked the most were the crispy honey sesame beef and dry chili chicken. read more
