China Express was my go-to when I was growing up in Centreville. Moved away for close to 20 years. Moved back to the area and was glad to see they were still around! Crispy Beef is still the best anywhere. I live in Reston, and ordered through UberEats and the food has always been hot and fresh for us. Fantastic local Chinese food! read more

Food was very tasty. My family enjoyed. A nice Chinese express spot not far from home.

Food is okay, but they do not clean their shrimp. I don't want to eat poop. The flavor of the dish is good, although when ordering it online you have to specify a sauce, choose no sauce. If you do order this, I suggest requesting no shrimp. Also the crispy veggie roll was creamy inside, which is different for a spring roll. read more

China Express - Singapore Rice Noodles with dirty shrimp - Chinese Near Me - Clifton, Virginia

Great local spot, place is clean & the staff friendly. Food is on point & the sushi great.

I've ordered from these guys for years. I have dined in couple times but most of the time I had it delivered. I've ordered everything from the standard beef and broccoli to the chefs choice. I just learned that they have restricted their delivery to within 4.0 miles and I'm .6 miles outside the limit. They called to cancel my order and asked if I would prefer pick-up. Some days...pick up is not an issue. There are days you've had a bad day or you just want to stay in and would like to splurge a little and have your food delivered. If I'm getting in the car, I'm going to PF Changs which is right down the road. It is unfortunate that they cannot find the business benefit for extending their delivery options. read more

I don't even order from this place anymore, bland food, and they can never get the order right. So long.

Got our food delivered. Delivery service is Pretty efficient. We had the hot and sour soup with tofu which was decent and the hot jumbo shrimp in Szechuan style. Food is decent If you're in a rush and need something dropped off read more

I was just insulted and cursed by the "owner" and "manager" of this place in front of my kids. We walked in and after waiting for approximately 7 minutes standing at the counter, I had to stop the guy to see if we could order. He said he "was busy..." I complained that he should at least take our order and than he refused to serve us. Just embarrassing and insulting. I will be sure to file a complaint with the BBB and county. Stay away from this place! read more

Amazing egg rolls. I also loved the house special lo mein. Definitely will order again. They do have some of the best egg rolls from all the Chinese restaurants. read more

I plced a order and told them instead if corn replace with more mushrooms, i went and tmshe over chargeg me and said "am i suppose to tell you the extra charge over the phone" she gave me a very nasty attitide. The food was very watered down. The owners are very rude and nasty, take your business else where there are plenty of other chinese carry out with a more friendly staff, plus the food was very bland. read more

These guys make the best orange chicken in town! The other things i've tried from them were pretty average, but their orange chicken is so superb that they have a long time customer in me. read more

Remember when Chinese takeouts used to pad your dish with a healthy dose of cabbage or onions or broccoli and throw a couple pieces of meat in there just so its technically a Chicken and Broccoli? Well, they've wizened up. Now its peanuts. Boatloads of peanuts. I ordered the double delight -- 2 meats: shrimp and chicken in their savory sauce, and it looked good until I started eating and realized it was just peanuts. As I chewed my food, I began to realize how much I missed plain old cabbage. I've had negative experiences with their food on a separate occasion that I, back then, chalked up to me being lazy on a Sunday evening and ordering take out. It was probably their deadzone and they didn't prep as much (I've worked the kitchen a few summers so I can understand prep is what makes or breaks it). Which is why they served me stale rubbery chicken. They were forgiven. This time it was Friday night, primetime. That same rubbery stale chicken. It's not all of it. Almost like they add a couple of fresh pieces in there to throw you off. And, off course, boatloads of peanuts. And after chewing through a gazillion peanuts I decided to wrap it up. I don't usually write reviews straight after a meal. My fortune cookie read "An upset is an opportunity to see the truth". read more

I went there today and didnt have good experience and i order my food and came out way too quick like it was premade and not fresh. My order was shimp dish that came out with only 4 shimps in the whole combo i live down the street and wont be going ever again. Their customers service was pretty bad as well. read more

Been missing Charlie Chiang's for over a year now and decided to give this place a try for take out. We had veggie spring rolls, general tso chicken, hunan chicken, moo goo gai pan, and broccoli in garlic sauce. Really delicious! read more

Authentic chinese food. Chicken broccoli, sweetsour chicken and singapore noodles..Awesome..Best fast food chinese in this area. read more

See all

My family and I have been dining here or ordering from here for over 15 years. This family run Chinese restaurant remains a good deal: good food, reasonable prices, and exceptional service. The son and daughter do an exceptional job at running this place, and will address any concerns or complaints you have - a rarity for Northern Virginia food establishments. Shane D. read more

Have ordered multiple times recently. Quality and customer service have improved significantly. It's once again our go-to for Chinese!

Chinese and delivered ! Hooray ! Tonight's home fare was beef and broccoli, and moo shi pork - both tasty and fresh . Best of all, arrived at my doorstep in 13 degree weather in less than the promised time ! Wow this could become a Friday habit ! Yes - I do recommend you try their services of you are in the radius . Thank you China express! read more

This is the worst place I've ever seen I'm a 12 year kid and my foot can't even fit in the container we orderd the family meal and I can't grasp it in my palms we orderd noodles and never got them and orderd the beef with broccoli and wanted chicken with that but never got it. This place is like the dollar store version of Panda Express. I talked to a lady on the phone bout it and the entire time they refused to except the fact that they were wrong she was saying that the family meal was large as I was staring at it a 12 year old kid that's 4'9 and I could grasp my hand around the whole container if you want a extreme expensive snack here's your place.( BTW snack is a massive overstatement) read more

I ordered the Sweet and Sour Chicken combination, which comes with fried rice and an egg roll. I substituted pork fried rice for the plain fried rice, and was charged an extra $4.00. A couple of dollars, sure, but $4.00? Everything was very bland. The fried rice was dried out from sitting too long. I liked that the chicken was white meat; many restaurants use thighs for this dish. The portion size was enough for two meals, but I think I'm going to throw out the rest. During the pandemic emergency, customers walk up to an area of the dining room blocked off by tables. But you have to yell back and forth to the employee at the counter at the back of the restaurant. Yelling expels more aerosol droplets and enhances viral spread. I watched another customer remove her mask just to talk more loudly. Terrible manners. Restaurant needs a sign that says "Wait here" or something similar. read more

Great vegetarian options and reasonably priced. I always order delivery from here and it arrives very fast. I love the various tofu dishes here, especially the kung po. read more

This is the hands down best Chinese takeout/delivery/dine-in restaurant in the Chantilly/CVille/Clifton/Fairfax area and possibly further. The most pleasant owners and excellent service. Every thing on the menu comes as advertised when ordering your fan/family favorites. Very tasty, they give a generous amount and are always consistent for a great price. China express is the bar that my family measures to when we're traveling etc and nothing ever comes close in comparison. read more

It's always relevant to state when you ordered as tonight my wife and I literally put our chopsticks down and went go make instant noodles. Crispy beef - sauce was good. The texture of the beef was like eating soggy oats. Eggplant in garlic sauce - uncooked eggplant in some gelatinous mush. Bland and poorly made. Sesame chicken - mediocre, was good enough for the kids but the sauce was no different then the average brown sauce. Rangoon - crispy and decent Hot sour and egg drop - suffers the same fate of being bland. Imbalance of seasoning. Again I want to state today's delivery, maybe not tomorrow's or yesterday's but today was disappointing and for me not a repeat if I can help it. read more

First and last. Very disappointed with the food, service was good but I just haven't had a good luck with Chinese food Will stick with Panda Express in Fairfax. read more

Owner was super friendly. I ordered a beer while I waited for my take out. Really enjoyed the dining area and wished I decided to eat in. I ordered the house friend Rice and a special their crisp fried pork chop. Regardless, of the amazing costumer service I think the cost and quantity was a bit over priced compared to other Chinese restaurants in the area. I would like to mention the crispy fried pork felt short changed for spending $32.00 for two items and a beer. read more

It looked one of another Chinese restaurant from outside. But the food was a lot better than I thought. After the meal, I tried to use Samsung pay. The cashier said we don't support Apple pay. I said this is not apple pay, this is SAMSUNG PAY! He said, we don't support any kind of pay. But what does that mean? Samsung pay works everywhere! As expected, Samsung pay works nicely without problem. If you have Samsung pay, you can use it there. read more

Pretty Good Chinese food is a matter of taste. It's different at different places. We're not talking about Big Macs where the one you get in France is just the same as the one in San Francisco. Sometimes people like a particular Chinese place but we'll hate it. We like this one. On Mondays our favorite Chinese restaurant is closed, but this Monday we both had a hankerin' for some Chinese food. Precious noticed this place the last time we ate at Outback Steakhouse so she suggested we make like a bakery truck and haul our buns over there. We got the Kung Pao chicken and the chicken with cashew nuts. It's nuthin' fancy, but it's what we like. It was pretty good. Actually, it was very good. The only complaint I have is that they didn't put hardly any veggies in there. I like a lot of veggies: carrots, onions, green peppers, bamboo, etc. etc. But the next time we get a hankerin' for some Chinese food on a Monday, it's good to know that we can always go to Union Mill China Express read more

We had been looking for a good chinese food place in Centreville, after a few disappointing experience. Weirdly, we heard about this place from our exterminator, who raved about it because the kitchen is apparently CRAZY clean. The food is good! The delivery is seriously fast. We've tried all the usual staples (fried rice, crispy beef, beef and broccoli, sweet and sour chicken). I appreciate that the meat is decent, without the weird fatty/chewy bits that can pop up in some restaurants. They have online ordering, which is my favorite. If you're in Centreville, give this place a try! read more

Everything on the menu is good and really authentic. Especially recommend the lo mein and General Tso's. Speedy delivery as well. Can't go wrong! read more

The food here is good; standard fare for an American Chinese restaurant. I gave them the fourth star because of their new Mobile Phone friendly ordering website. It is very easy to use, allows for menu item modifications, and makes the whole online ordering experience super fast and convenient. Totally worth the brief sign-up process on your first order. read more

Ordered the Soft shell crab and the peking duck. It was so good and the duck was juicy with crispy skin. The soft shell crab was deep fried and was salty. Both of which was very good for dinner for two. Most of all the peking duck didn't cost $50 like Peking Gourmet and It tasted just as good. Definitely will try other dishes here. read more

Chinese delivery is pretty standard. You never really need to see the menu, I think one company prints them all. This place the beef is tender, food is great and most of all.....you always get what you order, it's fast and hot. 5 stars I'm still ordering here and it's consistently great food. I'm a loyal customer! read more

This place is our go to place for Chinese take out. Good portions sizes and good prices, not to mention the food is delicious! I normally get the shrimp lo mein and some combination platter of orange chicken or general tso's chicken. They are normally pretty busy when we pick up but you can place an order online. Staff is friendly and place is clean. read more

I love their food and they are so friendly and remember you .... That means they care .... read more

Have been coming here for take out for several years now. The food is 3 stars and nothing special but it gets the job done and some items are actually pretty good. The 4th star comes from great value and friendly staff. We always get the General Tso's which is nicely prepared and the chicken actually has some consistency. Some people don't like dark meat so stay away if you hate dark meat as this place uses chicken thigh meat. The Beef Chow Fun is another favorite dish that a lot of people don't know about. Tender strips of beef with scallions and onions served with wide noodles that have a nice chewy texture. The one thing that I have to mention is their sushi. Don't do it. They don't get enough consistent business to properly rotate their sushi and as a result you are left with some really subpar sushi. The Tempura is even worse. It's all about expectations. Don't get wrapped up about authentic Chinese. Great prices and they also give you free sodas for carry out. read more

There was a hair in my food. Disgusting. I want my money back. I will never order from this place again.

It's chinese food. It's exactly what you expect. Decent food for decent prices and they bring it to your house. They used to have pretty good sushi and a few japanese items but most of that is gone, I think people weren't ordering it much. Which is a shame because fresh delivered sushi is hard to find. read more

This has been my worst Chinese food experience. We got the Kung Pao shrimp and scallops with fresh hot pepper. Th Kung Pao shrimp was full of peanuts which is not a big deal but on top of not having enough shrimp, it was completely burnt. It tasted and smelled burnt. My fiancé got fried rice which was just rice with soy sauce and eggs. My sister got the scallops which literally had more green peppers than scallops. It also had some kind of a weird sauce that made her tongue numb and no, she doesn't have any food allergies. My fiancé and I even had it and we experienced the same thing. This place is absolute crap. Don't waste your money!! If I could give it 0 stars I would. read more

Smallest portions and not worth it. We ordered a chicken dish and it had like 6 big balls. The crab Rangoon's were good. But when we were thinking dinner portions to split between people, we were left hungry. Wasn't impressed. Tried a new place and it didn't do well in my eyes. Go somewhere else. read more

This is the spot for Chinese takeout. The food is so good- everything we've gotten tastes fresh, flavorful, and great. Not to mention great fresh sushi for awesome prices. 10/10 recommend read more
