Ordered take out last night and went more for a vegetarian/pescatarian meal. The eggplant in garlic sauce was a first for me and while it didn't look as pleasing it tasted pretty good. The half gallon shrimp fried rice was huge and cost 17.99. The tempura vegetable was only 5.99 the only thing is it loses the crispyness being in a covered container and had a funny aluminum taste, could just be me. While I don't think il order these again I thought they were worth showing in case anybody is wondering. read more

I was very impressed with China Chef. The hot & sour soup was delicious and a nice mild balance between spice and tangy. It won't offend anyone or overpower you with spice. They must have fine tuned it for the elderly Floridians who don't want all of that heat on their spoons. I had the snowflake chicken off of the chef's specialties menu and was impressed with the flavor of the chicken and scallops. The vegetables were fresh (albeit canned water chestnuts) and crisp. It could've used a little bit more sauce. Adding soy sauce helped sauce it up though. I will definitely come back to see if they can make Singapore chow mei fun and Young Chow Fried Rice as nicely as what I am used to in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York. Those two entrees are always a good barometer of a Chinese restaurant's overall quality. read more

I go here on my lunch break and haven't been disappointed yet! It's like $12 for the lunch buffet and haven't had a dish I don't like. Our family enjoys take out as well, ordering dinner from them as we speak. read more

Since moving to Orlando we have been searching for a good chinese food restaurant. Looked at the reviews and thought, let's give China Chef a try, price is reasonable and it is located less than 2 miles from my home. This was the worst experience I have ever had. I had a special order for pork fried rice (no eggs, no vegetables), it had bean sprouts and onions and looked like they almost overcooked it. My orange chicken was absolutely horrible. Overall the food was disgusting and was a waste of my money and my time. I will not purchase from them again and I DO NOT recommend China Chef-Winter Park to anyone. read more

China Chef Restaurant is a typical New York Style type Chinese restaurant that offers the usual suspects that you would find on countless Chinese restaurant menus. While they might not take many chances on their menu, the food is relatively decent and the people working here are very friendly and professional. China Chef Restaurant is located the strip mall on the corner of University Boulevard and Goldenrod Road. There is plenty of parking. If you are not sure where it is, look for the Publix Supermarket, which is in the same shopping plaza. I had the pork lo mein on my visit here and I have to say that I enjoyed my meal. I have always thought that lo mein is a good menu item to judge a Chinese restaurant and this one was definitely a good representation. All in all, I would definitely recommend this establishment if you are in the mood for Chinese food and in the general area. Overall, I will give China Chef Restaurant four stars. As I said, a positive experience. read more

A friend and I ate at China Chef today to try the recommended all you can eat bar. The food offerings were limited and the food was like warm. When I asked why the food was barely warm, I was told the heating element in the bar was broken. I always thought that food on a food bar had to be kept at a certain temperature. She did heat up our food in their microwave. Other Chinese restaurants seem to have this problem with the temperature on their food bars. I would not recommend this place nor eat their again. read more

Stopped in and ordered some to-go food. I ordered the krab rangoon (6) with the vegetable lo mein. The krab rangoons were good. Veggie lo mein was also good. Came with lots of vegetables in it (water chestnuts, corn, celery, zucchini, mushroom, etc.) My friend ordered the chicken fried rice, vegetable soup, and lemon chicken. Everything looked good as well. The young man taking our order at the desk was nice. Empty inside when we walked in read more

I'm from Tampa moving into Orlando with a friend who goes to school locally. ive been to Asian takeouts all throughout Florida but this spot takes the cake. my experience with the fried rice has been absolutely phenomena, I love the food as this spot is my GO-TO on those days I just want to not want to cook at home. the older lady who I see running this restaurant everyday is the sweetest and this business deserves so much recognition for providing great meals for great prices in these times. I love this restaurant and would recommend you stop by to support them, I think the food is great! read more

Ordered take Out and was very impressed it's hard to find good Chinese food here in Orlando! I'm happy and glad I decided to give them a try because I will definitely be back and they are located only a few blocks away from my house. Everything was delicious my bf and I are picky when it comes to Chinese food and he did not leave a crumb behind he ate every last chicken wing! I forgot to take pictures of the egg rolls which were also really good and all of our food was freshly made! Idk why they only have 3.4 Stars that is deceiving and deserve to be higher than that! Give them a try I promise you won't be disappointed! I was iffy ordering from them but am extremely happy I went with my gut feeling and gave them a try! read more

The chicken looked, smelled, and tasted rancid. I called the restaurant to tell them the chicken was yellow and they told me it's because it's cooked with curry. I don't know if that's true or not, or if the chicken was bad, but it still doesn't change the fact that it smelled, tasted horrible and was a waste of money. read more

This place is the bomb. The chinese food is amazing! The tofu is the best here. And, wait for it.. they are open till 11pm. In addition, they don't mind late orders. I ordered a pick up at 10.47pm, not my proudest moment. I usually order shrimp fried rice with Mongolian beef, spring rolls, and tofu. I will add other dishes based on who I am eating with. This time, I ordered wings because why not. Fried wings were just "okay". This time the meal was just as delicious. Service is good, from my experience with my usual food order pick up. Definitely a local spot when I am in this area of Orlando. read more

Our go to Chinese spot for takeout. The staff is always very friendly, the app to order is very user friendly and the prices are reasonable. My personal favorites are the salt and pepper shrimp as well as the pepper steak and their fried rice is the best. I've never been disappointed by my order even when I try new things. Highly recommend read more

Seen this restaurant hundreds of times throughout the years, Now I know this restaurant probably been here well over a decade.....but I've never been.....and I have to say I do like me some Americanize Chinese food(if it's done right) Every now and then.......especially when the mood hits.... so As i was grabbing a bubble tea next door the other day, and I really felt like some hot n sour soup.....and shrimp with lobster sauce....(so generic)but I like it!!!lol Figure it's time to try this place out. The hot n sour soup was pretty good, could use a little more spice and vinegar.....but it was pretty tasty, as for the shrimp with lobster sauce.....it was alright.....u gotta be pretty bad to ruined a simple dish like shrimp with lobster sauce.......... So first overall experience was ok.....if I'm getting a bubble tea next door....I probably will try this again. read more

Ordered pick up today and was totally scammed. Was Ab charged for everything even though I specifically asked if there was extra charge for any of this stuff and the lady on the phone said no. Almost $17 for a cheap Chinese takeout where they charged me extra for things they didn't even give. The food is so dry I feel like balling my eyes out eating this stuff. I'm not sure what's going on with this location, but there is definitely much better cheap Chinese restaurants in the area that will make your order specifically without a five dollar disgusting up charge for stupid things like eggs and peas that I asked if there was an up charge and there was a upcharge. This restaurant should practice more honesty and add more flavor to the dry food. Will not be returning here ever again. read more

Good place. Have eaten here many times but first time to review it. Nice people. Will order again read more

I am always impressed with the food every time we eat china chef. They have a family meal that we usually get that comes with egg rolls, a gallon of house fried rice that includes large shrimp, 2 entrees like beef and broccoli and orange chicken and donuts. It is a HUGE amount of food for a very good value! It feeds our family and guests, usually about 6-8 people with plenty left over. We have also had their chicken lo mein and crab Rangoon. The best thing about it is the food is FRESH! I mean still steaming as in they freshly prepare everything at the time of your order. No leftover rice or lukewarm food. We highly recommend and will continue to consider this our number one choice for Chinese food read more

Just ordered from here LOVE IT! Food was FRESH, WARM & Everything was exactly as we ordered. Made one meal extra spicy they did it. My BF's meal was delicious also. I had to write a review because i order out a lot on the apps & quite often food is missing or cold. It was so nice to get food that u would get if u were at the restaurant. It doesn't happen alot but it happened today. THX CHINA CHEF!!! read more

Got 2 fried chicken and fries meal, sweet and sour chicken and an order of crab Rangoon.. The chicken was kinda oily, fries hot and fresh. The sweet and sour sauce was not good at all, the chicken was kinda tough, the white rice was good with some salt and pepper. The crab Rangoon would of been good but it was more bread then it was filling. I feel like I paid for mostly bread and to top it all off, I got it delivered and the driver got kinda mad because I didn't have a cash tip! Like what, and then you ask me again before you walk off as if I should of changed my mind. Don't get me wrong I tip delivery drivers but not ones who are being assholes sorry! But this is why I gave it a 2/5! read more

China Chef Restaurant - Animal crackers, jello, and grapes for the kids! - Chinese Near Me - Winter Park, Florida

I love Chinese food and the majority of restaurants I have been to in the past have just been "ok." China Chef is far from ok as it has more than exceeding my expectations! It is a little pricey; however, considering when I order, I'm always ordering for myself and my husband, it's more than enough food to fill us completely and we always have leftovers for the next day. I cannot rave enough about the honey chicken. It has always been my favorite Chinese chicken dish and China Chef whips up the tastiest honey chicken I have ever put in my mouth. They also make the best lo mien I have ever tasted. Another favorite of mine which I must add to every order is the fried beef won tons. The fried rice and won ton soup are both good, nothing special, just your usual fried rice and won ton soup. While I have not tried it because I am not a huge fan of spicy foods, my husband reports to me their general tso's chicken is the best he has had. My husband also reports the egg rolls are good, but he has had better. The one grievance I have is the people who deliver for the restaurant. The restaurant charges a delivery fee and then when the good is delivered to my door, I always get a frown and a "look" from the delivery person for handing them only a few dollars. I've already paid a delivery fee to the restaurant; sorry, but I'm not going to hand over a gigantic tip on top of the fee I've already paid. It's like they expect a $10 tip for driving two blocks down the road. The attitude is annoying. So, to keep from having to deal with the delivery people, we simply drive the two blocks ourselves now and pick up our order. read more

The food was Terrible. I won't be going back again. Negative reviews are hidden. Place have bugs.

Stoppped in for dinner here last week and I enjoyed my meal. I ordered the Mongolian Beef dinner that came with egg drop soup, an egg roll, fried rice. It was all pretty good and I had enough for dinner the next evening. Fast forward to this evening. I walk in and wait a minute for someone to greet me. When he does he asks me if I'm there to pick up or would like to place an order. I say "dine in, please". The host replies with "not right now". With no other explanation. Maybe I should have asked more questions but I was taken a back. Never have I walked into a restaurant that had a huge "we're open sign" on the door and been told not right now. I could see if he said not right now we are under staffed. Or, not right now the toilet is overflowing. Or, not right now we have to many take out orders to fill. But to just flat out say " not right now" isn't good business. I most likely won't be back. Like I said, food was good. Customer service, not so much. read more
