Absolutely no flavor. Everything's bland things that are supposed to have sauce like the lo mein is dry boneless spareribs were burnt chicken, wings, were pink on the inside. Will not be spending my money again at this place please avoid. read more

My boyfriend ate here and got food poisoning. I don't like to post reviews that are negative but feel that it's important for others to know when it concerns health. read more

Shockingly good (for quick service Chinese) and always quick. What more could you ask for?

Been here hundreds of times over the last 20+ years always good quality large volume hot and tasty. Mostly take out but there are tables and booths if you want takeout to eat in. Service is fast accurate and courteous always. Prices are very reasonable. Highly recommend for American Chinese take out. read more

Chang Lung is this non-descript Chinese Restaurant in a small Plaza. We have made this our go-to Chinese restaurant for take out. There are a few tables and chairs there but most people just get take out. The quality of food actually exceeded my expectations. We typically order on Saturday for 5 pm and my orders are always ready on time. They do a lot of little things that other take out places have gotten "chinzy" (cheap) about. Some examples are the Wonton soup still contains strips of barbecue pork, and so does their fried rice. Their roast pork is not all fat and their dinner special portions are generous. So many places now are just cutting so many corners, but Chang Lung is still enjoyable for a fast take out meal. read more

Fantastic as long as you set your expectations! We had a great experience ordering from here this weekend, and I am SO relieved we found a wonderful, VERY inexpensive spot for Chinese takeout right near our home. Located in the Dollar Tree plaza in Beechwood, Chang Lung is convenient to MANY neighborhoods - NOTA, NWV, Beechwood, Laurelton, and more. Great central location and easy pickup. Why 4 stars? Cash preferred/pretty much cash only (used the excuse that their card reader is broken but I've read that this is the case fairly often) and fairly long wait time to order. Also, weird dumplings. Don't get me wrong, I still ate them. But they are odd. Otherwise, our food was the sodium-packed, artificial Chinese goodness we were craving. Sesame chicken was some of the best I've had in awhile, lo mein was greasy as heck and hit the spot, and wonton soup was also fantastic. I will also say their white rice is steamed beautifully and came to us with a stickier/sweeter finish, which is my preference. Fortunate cookies are included in your takeout order and it seems like no matter what you get, it will be ready for you in 20 minutes flat. We will be back here many times again in the future. We got ~4 meals worth of food for two hungry humans (wonton soup, dumplings, lo mein, sesame chicken) at $21. Happy eating! read more

I was worried that after moving into the city I wouldn't be able to find a place with chinese like at home. After an exhaustive search for good Chinese, we found Chang Lung. This has been our favorite spot for 2 years now. First things first: The food here is great! I order the sesame chicken and I think its the best we've tried. No matter what time of day you call there's a good chance you'll be put on a brief hold because they are that busy. Wait time is about 20 minutes after your order is placed. 30 if its the busy hour. They do not deliver, but the food is worth the drive. They also consistently stuff the to go containers with generous helpings of what you ordered. And the food is well packaged, without leaks or spills and honestly it was so pretty when I took it out of the bag I had to take this picture of it! If your regular chinese place is 'OK', I recommend giving Chang Lung a chance. They are epic! read more

Chang Lung Chinese Restaurant - Sesame Chicken - Chinese Near Me - Rochester, New York

My husband and I have been ordering from Chang Lung a couple of times a month for over 20 yrs. We have seen multi generations there. Everyone is friendly, professional and the menu is very good. I have tried almost everything on the menu and never have I been disappointed. read more

The food was so good! We got shrimp fried rice, sesame chicken & egg rolls. Everything was hot and delicious.

The search for good Chinese food is legit in this city. Why is it impossible to find anything half way decent? Sesame Chicken was stringy and no clue what part of the chicken it was but not good. The Mongolian beef had really thin sauce and no sweetness I usually associate with the dish. The egg rolls and crab Rangoon were beyond stale. The dumplings were bland and doughy. Bean curd soup was ok but I mean it's vegetable soup... Kind of hard to screw up. The plaza is also super sketchy and busted. This is not the Chinese you are looking for... read more

Best Chinese food in my area. They do have a card minimum of $10. The area is kind of sketchy but the food will draw you to come again. I ordered the lunch special: General Tso with pork fried rice. The special came with your choice of soda or soup and I chose the won-ton soup. I also ordered a side of chicken wings to meet the minimum for card. Food took about 10minutes and remained hot and fresh on my trip home. You definitely get a bang for your buck. The worker was very nice too! So, if you're looking for a decent lunch, late night meal, or a cheat meal, this is your place to go! read more

Chang Lung Chinese Restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Rochester, New York

I have been hitting a lot of duds lately with Chinese places. My usual places that I have been ordering from for the last 3 years all have come up short. This led me to do some thinking on what are some places I have tried once but forgot what the food was like. Chang Lung was that place for sure. I tried it once a long time ago but it didn't stick with me. Most likely because at the time I had a handful of my go-to places that I ordered from. Also Chang Lung is out of my way. Well my go-to places are few n far between these days. Which is why I am happy to add Chang to my list of go-to "hole in the wall" Chinese food places that won't break the bank...unlike those full on Dine-in Chinese restaurants. What I tried and loved- The sesame chicken The pork fried rice WonTon soup Hot n spicy beef What I tried and liked.. Chicken w/ broccoli Hot n sour soup- needed to add a hotsauce packet to make it taste good. if you're going here expecting to find unique sauces and original chef creations...you probably won't like chang. But if you come here expecting to order your favorites with similar flavor profiles you find in 95% of the take out places...you will be very pleased. I look forward to ordering here more often. read more

I ordered their egg foo young combo. Food was great. Would have gave em a 5 star rating but I felt there was not enough shrimp for my shrimp fried rice. It came like 6 small pieces. Eggs were very oily but the taste was good. read more

Usually get exactly what I expect from here but tonight on top of my normal Wonton soup which is great as usual, I ordered the boneless spareribs and they were little strips of pork with the right flavor but definitely far from what I was expecting. Probably wouldn't have minded if I knew this ahead of time. I would have ordered some white rice to go with it. Next time I will spend the extra dollar and get the traditional bbq spareribs. read more

Depending on who cooking it and what time you go. The prices are ok and so us the service. I appericate the sweet iced tea and lemonade and pineapple. It's always good. The ambiance is OK ​ read more

One of the best Chinese restaurants in east Rochester! I like to order a special dish not on the menu. Ordered it from here and have to say it was just delicious! I almost called them to tell them how good it was! Best I've had in years and I've tried almost all of the Chinese restaurants in the area! Everything else is also delicious! Love it when it looks and tastes like real white meat chicken!!! read more

Hole-in-the-Wall Chinese: incredibly reasonable prices for their food. Around $5 for a meal. The food wasn't the best--crab Rangoon was definitely fried directly from frozen (which made the outer wonton shell not particularly crispy), and the Hunan chicken was good, but not particularly memorable. Though the food wasn't great, the people are friends and I'll definitely return given their prices... read more

Amazing Chinese in the area.... Kinda want to keep it shhhhhh! Their food is so good ,they are friendly and always get it right! No nonsense and nothing fancy set up ... that cranks out big city flavor ! Thanks Chang Lung! read more

the best Chinese food in the Roc. been ordering for there for years, ever since i lived on Garson. i moved and no longer live in the Garson area but when i'm around i always make sure to stop by. it's somewhat in the hood but food that's made in the hood hits better anyways! my go to order is always pepper steak (without onions and peppers or sometimes light) with extra meat and pork fried rice and a pork egg roll. read more

Excellent food. This is mainly a takeout place. It has booths so you can eat there, but it's not really set up like a sit-down restaurant so if that's the experience you're looking for probably look elsewhere. But if you want takeout, this is absolutely the right choice. The food is extremely good. Some of the best Chinese takeout I've had. We've tried maybe 8 different dishes or so and all of them were top-tier. I usually get the Szechuan Chicken or Kung Pao Chicken and my partner gets the bean curd (tofu) dishes, but we experiment with other choices sometimes. Everything we've eaten has been fantastic. The ingredients are above average for this style and price-point. Prices are right on par with other Chinese takeout places in this area (maybe even slightly lower). Friendly service. Always quick. Don't let the looks fool you. The focus is on the food, not the decor. For this style and price-point it doesn't get any better than this. read more

Omg! I have had a lot of Chinese food in my life, but I can honestly say that this was the best Chinese food I have ever had. The pork fried rice had big chunks of pork in it, the egg rolls were simply to die for. This will be our new go to Chinese place, so glad we found it. read more

This is our go-to Chinese spot. It's always delicious and fast, and they're really nice too. The egg rolls aren't my favorite but their singapore mei fun is one of the best in the city. read more

Has the best Shrimp Curry, egg rolls. My son always gets LO Mein noodles. We get fried dumplings. It is not fancy but the food makes up for the looks. Nice and clean You will not be disappointed read more

To me this is the best Chinese food you'll get on the east side of Rochester - at least from what I've tasted. It has quite a local following. I used to live by them, but now I drive from Webster to get their food when I'm craving Chinese. I recommend this place. The man at the counter is always very friendly. read more

This is my favorite take out place here in Rochester. Not going to lie, it's hood, but good places have the best food. Well usually. I like the owner, haven't asked his name yet, but he knows my order! I can tell him exactly how I like my food, and it comes out that way. That's really important to me. For example, I like my chicken dishes (sesame, general tso, orange) to be lightly fried and very lightly sauced. This allows me to taste complexity of the dish while enjoying its individual components. He makes it perfect every time. The menu is the typical western New York Chinese fast food take out menu, the yellow fried rice, the same quick orders at the top. All are things that I don't understand. Are all these places owned by the same owner? What is with the "one size fit all" approach to Chinese take out? Everything that's going on in the kitchen is visible to the dining room. So...try not to stare like I do. I'm working on it! That's only because the seats are those bench-table thingies that I have to squeeze into, so I don't bother. read more

Really reliable take out Chinese food. Not chef like of any sort or handmade noodles goin on here but for good old fashioned take out it's really good and cooked nicely. Also the family that runs it is very friendly. read more

Simply the best fast Chinese food in the area. Pork fried rice with the pork cutlet on top is amazing. My favorite is the subgum wonton, it's a dinner plate with lots of meat, vegetables, and tasty fried wontons. read more

We have tried so many Chinese restaurants in Rochester and Chang Lung is our favorite - especially considering taste and cost. We regularly order the pork mei fun, general tsaos, and crab rangoons. Delish and cheap! The parking lot can be a bit intimidating - but the food is worth it! read more

Take out order was ready as they promised in 20 minutes. Hard noodles are not included(this is what my grandson-a picky eater- eats) so bought some. The noodles were terrible with a funny after taste. Sesame chicken was good and the broccoli was cooked just right. Pepper steak was heavy on onions and peppers and very low on steak. read more
