    Over cooked bland 1. Chicken Chop Suey
    Ingrid S.

    I wish I could get my money back.... that should tell you everything. I was excited to try this place, it's so close to my home, and their pictures look so appetizing. I understand businesses are doing what they can during these times, But man I've never been more insulted in my life by bad , tasteless food. This has no excuse. I ordered chicken chop suey, it was not only bland , but the chicken had a weird consistency, it was white and slimy looking , and so squishy in your mouth. No vegetables either just a bunch of celery and bean sprouts. The next dish was beef broccoli , again ,same meat consistency and bland. It looked so good, but unfortunately it was like chewing on a rubber band. The only edible thing we're the broccoli and carrots Next... pork wonton soup... don't even,wontons were over cooked , broth bland! It was literally like drinking hot water. With cabbage and bean sprouts. A tragedy. We also got a side of egg rolls... bland... Rice . The only edible thing. $30 in the trash , I know it's a small amount, but I mind when it's spent on food for my family. My husband even tried cooking the chop suey at home. Still chicken was gross to eat. Gelatinous , over cooked meat. Ended up ordering pizza. I'm disappointed and honestly mad. Never again.

    Strange potstickers (6) $8.50

    In my ongoing quest to find a nice, cheap, basic, tasty Chinese place in Reno, on Tues December 21st I decided to open up my UberEats app and order from China Lee. The best I can say is that it wasn't the worst Chinese takeout I've ever had. I got an order of (6) potstickers ($8.50) which were just okay. Not bad, but not good. They lacked that smooth wrapper and pan sear that I crave in a dumpling, and they were only half full of filling, which could be the result of cooking, I don't know. The wrapper had a grainy kind of texture that was odd for a potsticker. It's evident in the photo, and the photos posted by other Yelpers. Second was an order of (3) "egg rolls" ($4.50) which are actually SPRING ROLLS, but pretty much no restaurant I've found correctly discerns the two, so I won't quibble. However, the "egg rolls" were also quite "meh." Nothing inside but cabbage. Not bad, but not good either. Third was the Wor Wonton soup ($12.50), which despite being salty, was the winner of the order. The broth was tasty, made better by a little dilution with water. It was what Wor Wonton soup SHOULD be (are you paying attention, China Kitchen?) stuffed with goodness; sliced pork, pieces of chicken, a generous portion of shrimp, lots of wontons and the usual cabbage and green onions et al. I'd order it again. For entrées I ordered Honey Walnut Shrimp ($15.50) and Beef with Snow Peas ($14.50). They looked good, but I only got one bite of the shrimp and tossed the rest. It tasted exactly as you'd expect shrimp rolled around in and covered with cinnamon-roll frosting to taste: sickeningly, cloyingly sweet - inedible. Walnuts and broccoli were inexplicably on the side. A positive - the broccoli was fresh (not frozen) bright green, cooked perfectly al dente and tasty. I wished I had a container of that instead of the cinnamon-roll shrimp. The beef with snow peas was less than "meh." Nice big pieces of velveted beef and fresh snow peas and some sliced carrots. The sauce was okay and the seasoning was good but the beef was RAW inside. Please do not ask me how thinly-sliced beef could possibly be raw, but look at the photo - it was. There's a place for rare beef, but a Chinese dish such as this just ain't it. I'm sorry, China Lee. My quest continues.

    2. Sweet and Sour Pork
    Cassandra D.

    The food is really good. We ordered the vegetable fried rice, cashew chicken, and sweet and sour pork. The sweet and sour pork came without sauce on it but on the side. This made the pork super hard and crunchy, never had that before, is that normal. Beside that everything was super good. The sweet and sour sauce wasn't the best but it was good.

    The Wok punches so high above Reno's weight class it's insane. The Sichuan menu is absolutely…read morekiller, and I think the best food experience in Reno. The Wok is one of those places, and Sichuan/Chongqing food is one of those things that I'm jealous of people who get to experience it for the first time. Here's how to have an epic time at The Wok: Step 1. Get 4 to 8 people total that aren't afraid to try something a little different and maybe slightly spicy (seriously though it's not actually that spicy). If you need help with this step message me, I'd share a meal with some random people if it's at The Wok. Step 2. Flip to the back page of the menu, and order a few things that sound good to the group. Don't waste your time with the American Chinese menu (even though what I've had off of that menu is actually really good too). Make sure to get a decent mix of stuff like appetizers, veggies, noodle, soup, and meat dishes. Also don't be afraid to order multiple times. This gives you more time with the menu, and you can judge what sounds good in the moment. Step 3. Share the food family style with everyone until you are all full. I think at this point I've eaten everything on the Sichuan menu, and can say that if it sounds good to you, it is! Some of my favorite dishes are: Wontons in Chili oil, Bone in chicken wings, Spicy boiled fish fillet, Beef noodle soup, Green beans, Salt and Pepper tofu, Dan dan noodles, and Mapo Tofu. Finally, Janet (the manager) is amazing, and always willing to give a recommendation.

Shortly after being seated we were served wonton strips with sweet and sour and hot mustard dipping sauces. We opted to order hot tea and several dishes to share. Everything was served hot and fresh out of the kitchen. The vegetables were served still crunchy, very good. This is a great little spot to enjoy Chinese food. Our daughter shared that it was her Dad's birthday. The server turned on birthday music, brought out ice cream with a candle and we all sang. We really enjoyed the dinner. The food was great, the restaurant was clean, our service was great.

We decided to order the combination family meal so everyone could try a variety of dishes. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted like old friends. Even though it had been a while since our last visit, the staff remembered us, which made us feel so welcome. I love the ambiance here. It's quaint, clean, and comfortable, with soft lighting, relaxing background music, and cozy booths that make it a perfect place to enjoy a meal and catch up with friends. We started with soup. I had the hot and sour soup, which is always my favorite, and our friends tried the flower soup, similar to egg drop soup, for the first time. They really enjoyed it! For appetizers, we shared the prawn, egg rolls, and crab Rangoon, and everything was delicious. For our main course, we enjoyed the Szechuan chicken, Hunan chicken, sesame chicken, and the vegetable plate. Every dish arrived hot, fresh, and full of flavor. The service was outstanding. Our server checked on us often, kept our water glasses full, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. We always have a wonderful experience at Chin Chin, and this visit was no exception. Great food, excellent service, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere keep us coming back. We highly recommend it!

We ordered the Vermicelli with Grilled Chicken, Dry Fried Beef Chow Fun, and Gai Lan with Beef. The portions were generous, and the prices were reasonable. With "Hong Kong Diner" in the name, I was expecting authentic Cantonese stir-fries with good wok hei. Unfortunately, the Dry Fried Beef Chow Fun lacked that signature smoky flavor, and the texture was closer to lo fun than traditional chow fun. The Gai Lan with Beef also lacked wok hei. The outer layer of the gai lan stems had been peeled away, so the stems lost the crisp texture that makes gai lan so enjoyable. The Vermicelli with Grilled Chicken was overly tender and quite salty. It seemed to be marinated so heavily that I couldn't really taste the natural flavor of the chicken. Overall, the restaurant offers generous portions, reasonable prices, and friendly service. I just wish the Cantonese dishes had delivered the wok hei I was expecting from a place with "Hong Kong Diner" in its name. :)
