Tried lunch special. Comes with choice of soup, egg roll or drink. Quite satisfactory. And only $8 and change! Fried rice done properly. Not flooded with soy sauce to cover up staleness or artificially boost fkavour. Breading on chikin crisp enough. Would repeat if again in the area. Plastic utensils and wooden chopsticks to your left, sauce packets du jour to your right. Some indoor seating for convenience of casual dining but really prinarily your typical take-out Chinese. In an outdoor shopping mall with many stores. Little difficult finding if you are not a local. Given the configuration of roads, have to do some convoluted backtracking if you miss the entrance to the plaza. Btw don't try eating with just chopsticks as I did. Very difficult picking up non sticky rice. read more

Best China Chef - Sweet&Sour Chikin - Chinese Near Me - Reading, Pennsylvania

Been ordering from here for years. Love the dumplings and the Lo-mein. I'm not sure what the 1- star folks are talking about. The online ordering is also a plus bc I often have to order while I'm on a work call. read more

Obnoxiously expensive for mediocre Chinese food. Everything is an up charge that is normally included with the dish at other restaurants. Will not order from here again. read more

Food took over an hour and 30 minutes. We live 5 minutes from the restaurant. China Penn way faster service.

We've found the best way to order delivery is online through their website rather than by phone... far less confusion over what is ordered. You get to review and make corrections to your order before you commit. Then you get an email order confirmation that includes a copy of your order. We order from them two or three times a month. Using their website we have never experienced a problem with the order or delivery time we selected. They have always delivered on time or a few minutes early. No delivery from anywhere is piping hot ... It's delivery and that involves time. With that out of the way, the food is good. Ingredients have always been fresh. Of course, we have our favorites and there are dishes we like less, butt that's our personal taste. read more

The closest to us. Pretty good even though they always get my order slightly wrong. The garlic sauce is inconsistent, sometimes brown sometimes reddish. I like the brown better. Low mein needs more flavor but the noodles are thicker than most which is nice. Orange and General tzos is always over cooked and tough. read more

Their food is A1, but the prices are ridiculous. You can get the same quality food for $10-13 elsewhere, but it'll cost $20-30 here.

Although we have a reliable and very good Chinese restaurant very close to our home, we decided to try something else and see if we were missing out - I received a menu in the mail from Best China Chef and we tried it. The food was fine, but just okay average. Rice was yellow and a little dry and the egg rolls were just okay. The shrimp roll wasn't really shrimp, just one little bit in the whole roll. I am glad we tried, but will not be back. The online ordering did not let me select my sides of sauce, there was not hot mustard which is our favorite - we received duck sauce (which was a waste and ended up in the trash. It was a good experiment, but I am going back to Lucky House. read more

The guy at counter is very nice..the food is ok..hit and miss really...the chow mein was just ok..the fried rice is that pre yellow rice..if you like that then ok..the place is ok read more

Ate here once. The lady behind the counter was funny. She was very animated telling me that they make "The Best Chinese Food Ever, you'll like!" I gave them a try. It was ok, average at best. There are 3 other Chinese takeaway places near here which I favor the most and they are So Much Better than here. This place ain't bad, its just not the best. Try The Great Wall in West Reading, China 3 in Birdsboro and Wonderful Chinese Restaurant in Sinking Spring. read more

Egg foo young and lo mein good. Fast delivery. Pricing isn't bad either. Not overly nice on the phone but they can understand me so that's a plus. read more

We ordered takeout. It was delicious & very flavorful. It didn't take too long. Had plenty to eat so we welcomed the leftovers for the next day. read more

I can't wait til they reopen. This is my favorite place for Chinese close to my neighborhood. They are usually busy. I always pick up my food and they are always friendly. The Lo Mein is the best and my son loves their crispy General Tso chicken. We also enjoy their egg rolls, dumplings, won ton soup, chicken with garlic sauce, and vegetable mei fun. Everything we get is hot, fresh, and delicious. read more

Definitely the best Chinese food in this area. They do local deliveries. Friendly staff which is always nice but the food is delicious. Love the egg rolls !! Give them a try - you won't be disappointed. read more

Best Chinese in the area by a long shot. The food isn't groundbreaking, but it's exactly what you expect when you order Chinese. Food was spot on with my expectations. read more

Best China Chef - a variety of food items - Chinese Near Me - Reading, Pennsylvania

Best Chinese in the area! We are never disappointed and when they are available to deliver they are always prompt. Usually order the sesame chicken entree, white and fried rice, broccoli with garlic sauce, and egg rolls. Thank you for being consistent! Will order again. read more

My family of 6 love their food. They cook the food fast and when I pick up is hot. I have yet to have a negative experience with them and we have eaten there at least 6 times in past 3 months. read more

If you love place that screws up your order this is the place to go. They constantly mess up the order and them the owner stands there and argues with you. She has a shitty attitude for running a business. On top of lousy customer service they seem to think it's ok not to wear masks. Businesses like this dump don't understand that they need us to survive. They might want to have someone train them on customer service. The last time we were there a gentleman was arguing with the owner, that seems to be a common occurrence with this place. Good riddance!!!! read more

Dee-lish!! Try them out! Ordered for the first time. Food was tasty and fresh. We will return!

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE! Called for a delivery & first of all the person on the phone was very rude. She told me 45 mins, after an hour passed I called & said my food is not here she says "he just left should be 5-10 mins" 30 mins goes by & I call again & say my food is not here yet she says she will call him & tell him to hurry up & my card will be refunded. Finally the food shows up & it wasn't even good. My card was not refunded so I called & she says "I never said I would refund your card" I said yes you did because it took an hour and a half to get here. Mind you I literally live 5 mins away. She says "no" & hangs up! So rude DONT SPEND MONEY HERE! read more

Usually I love their food but today I ordered for delivery and ordered Crab Ragoon which states there are suppose to be 8 and only received 6. Not a big deal but they were also cold and not crispy. I will not order from them for delivery again. read more

Very quick service, easy location, online ordering was super easy (and allowed for cash payment at the store). The food was good, although I haven't eaten enough Chinese to know good from bad. Will definitely return. Portions were generous enough to give us another meal or two from the leftovers. read more

I've been going to them for years. The food has always been tasty and fresh. Your order is prepared quickly and hot. I highly recommend Best China Chef. read more

I Ordered for delivery and got my order 2 hours after calling. The lady on the phone was very rude and when I called back after an hour to check on my order she told me " my driver is out, don't call this number ". If I don't call them who the hell I'm supposed to call? When the driver came with the food he told me that the lady was the owners wife and that she did have an attitude and she sent him to two different houses farther away before my house. read more

We have been ordering from Best China Chef for two years. Unfortunately we will not continue. Our last two orders have been below acceptable. I ordered shrimp and scallops in garlic sauce. I got 4 shrimp and 2 scallops. This was the QUART size! My wife ordered shrimp and broccoli in garlic sauce which was supposed to be spicey. Instead it was bland and tasteless. Try somewhere else. This place has gone downhill. read more

It wouldn't be too bad, but it'll take over an hour to deliver to your house. One time I had to meet the delivery driver down the street because for some reason she decided she just didn't feel like driving a few blocks farther. And they use Italian pasta instead of rice noodles. Rice noodles are neither rare nor expensive so there really isn't even any good reason to NOT use them. read more

The best tasting Chinese food in the area. Large portions, loaded with meat. Always hot, fresh and made to order. Take out and delivery. read more

Egg rolls, General Tso's, Mongolian beef, chicken and broccoli, steamed dumplings...always hot and fresh! Best Chinese in Exeter! Friendly staff and the meals are prepared quickly. read more

Have been going there for years but it ended today. While waiting to pick up my order and the lady behind the counter was preparing someone's pork and dropped a pc on the floor when she thought I wasn't looking put it in the fried with the other pork. I called her out on in and at first she acted like nothing was wrong . After posting on fb I found out others stopped going when they found a bug in their food. read more

Went in one day for pickup and watched the female manager owner yell and berate a customer because he came to pick up his order that he placed online and when he arrived and the order never was received for some reason. From that point things turned into nothing short of a WWE event. The guy simply asked for a full refund via cash or to credit his account as his order was never made and he didnt feel like waiting for a whole order to finally be made. From there the female owner manager began yelling SIR SIR SIR repeatedly talking over him and berating him telling him she wont give him a refund as they never got the order online so its not their fault. After a 10 min shouting match they finally called the online server to see his order was legit but not before she threatened to call the police on him for asking for a refund. He finally left when the lady conceded and said they would credit him back to his credit card the charge he did recieve and gave up on forcing him to wait for the food. With the amount of time the manager spent screaming at him she could had made the damn order. All the while I was still waiting just to get my pick up order. When the melee finally ended and I got my order mine's was ice cold. I payed and left as I feared if i said something to the female manager she would froth at the mouth and hit me with a steel chair and put me in some form of a submission hold. Aftee what i witnessed i've never have gone back and never will as i dont feel like crushing up my blood pressure medicine into my chinese food take out order. read more

They Delivered To My House & My 15 Year Old Daughter Answered Saying She Was Waiting For My Brother For The Money , The Person Who Delivered Screamed At My 15 Year Old Daughter , Walked Inside & Wouldbt Leave Saying We Had To Pay Her Extra ! Never Again ! Almost Had To Call The Cops ! read more

Been coming to this little gem for years. No frills atmosphere but consistently good food at good price. I like being able to see into the kitchen as they cook my hot meal. read more

Sesame chicken take out: meat was tough, over-cooked, and didn't have chicken flavor. For the sauce it tasted like they stirred together some bottled sweet and sour sauce together with some bottled srirachi sauce and sprinkled on some sesame seeds. The rice was fine. The spring roll was okay. read more

Waited 20 minutes with not even anyone acknowledging me. Took 6 phone orders still nothing. Then proceeded to call out a phone number from someone who walked in 10 minutes after me. Still no acknowledgment. Walked out read more

Best around! Have gotten consistently great food from here over 15 years now! The others have come and went, Best China Chef has stood the test of time! That tells you something. Keep up the great food! read more

I pre-ordered online. When I arrived there, the didn't have my order. I then had to wait an extra 15 min. They proceeded to charge me a different amount then the amount pre-ordered. The lady at the register was not nice at all. No apologies were given. I get home with my family's dinner & they forgot to put the order of fried rice in the bag, so I called to let them know I paid but didn't get what I ordered. I asked if they could deliver the item they forgot & it took over an extra hour till it arrived. BTW, the lady hung up on me when I called back to ask if they got lost. Plus, a friend of mine just told me someone they know just got food poisoning from there. I'll never return!! read more

This used to be one of my favorite Chinese takeout restaurants in the area, but after my last two experiences I won't be going back. The next to last time we ordered delivery and the food never showed up. When I called to see where the food was they said the woman who took my order was confused and thought I was picking dinner up. When I explained it was for delivery and she took my address, he saw my address and said he would bring it right out. When the food arrived there was no apology or adjustments to the bill. This past Friday I ordered dinner to be picked up. They had a boy running the register. When they brought two orders up, I asked if one was mine and he asked what I had ordered and said neither was mine. Twenty minutes later the regular woman came up and asked me what I had ordered. I told her what I had ordered and it ended up being one of the bags I asked about. When I told her that the bag had been sitting there for 20 minutes and I had asked the boy about it, she just repeated the price. There are other Chinese restaurants in the area and since this one shows no signs of proper customer service or appreciation, I shall take my business elsewhere! read more
