I ordered "Sizzling Duck" hoping it be some fired duck, but when my order came all i got was stir fired sauce, barley any meat in it filled with vegetables, Never mentioned it was a stir fried sauce, waste of $20 read more

Very rude told us we couldn't dine in and they were closed in 30 minutes. She was very rude from the beginning gave us attitudes and disrespected my cousin. We asked if we can dine in and she said "no go" will never come again read more

This restaurant is disgusting! I ordered the shrimp fried rice and the rice was old and mostly likely previously cooked it had the consistency of a couscous. I called back to let them know the little RUDE UNFRIENDLY owner laughed and told me that's their style of rice ! Save your money and possibly your health! Stay away from this dirty, filthy establishment. You've been warned! read more

Delicious Chow Mein - I kid you not! I had to take it out of the trash to show you I wasn't lying! - Chinese Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

love the customer service! The chicken wings and shrimp fried rice was amazing! I have been craving this for weeks and they satisfied my pregnancy craving 100%! would definitely recommend! very friendly and family oriented! read more

Great value, tasty ingredients, and fast service are all pluses. The restaurant itself is probably not where you want to enjoy your meal, but perhaps for a solo lunch, it is serviceable. I'm looking forward to trying more of the menu! Happy to have found this place. read more

Delicious Chow Mein is a small restaurant in a slightly larger strip mall that you probably wouldn't know about unless someone told you. I had an old friend who lived in the area which is how I originally got hooked on it. From what I've heard from other people, most of the food is similar to any other Chinese place but what I KNOW sets them apart is their fried rice. I'm not going to lie, I go here a couple of times a month just to order shrimp fried rice for lunch. I never get anything else because I'm picky and don't eat much in the first place, but man the fried rice is good. If you stay by the counter you can watch the man cook the rice. I like that I know it's being made fresh for me. It's not anything special on the inside. It's very home-like in my opinion and there are rarely other people in there when I go. I have learned to appreciate the quiet little hole in the wall for what it is. I enjoy popping in for my rice, seeing the lady that owns the place, and waiting for my food while I watch the cars pass out the window. It's nothing flashy, but it is consistent and it is good. read more

The food wasn't that good. Was really disappointed with what they call chow mein. I also got pork fried rice and it made me a little uneasy with how dark it is. The restaurant in general looks questionable inside. read more

This little place is awesome!! Ordered online today and everything was fantastic. I got hot and sour soup, sweet and sour chicken and pan fried noodles with vegetables. I LOVED it all and can't wait to order again. read more

Delicious Chow Mein - Hot & Sour soup, Pan fried noodles with vegetables. - Chinese Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

If you want the most monochromatic meal you have ever had, in dark brown, this is the place. Our food tasted fine, but it was incredibly ugly, and too salty from what I assume is the over use of soy sauce. I guess that is also what gives it that delightful shade of used motor oil. The prices seemed great until we saw the portions. This is not like most Chinese places where you get a tightly packed, overstuffed container of fried rice, and enough leftovers for days. Hot and sour soup was good enough. It was super thick which is not my preference. A bit expensive for the pint size compared to many other places. Egg foo young was a tad burnt, and a very small portion. Don't be fooled by "3 patties". Thin gravy with a hint of a flavor I did not care for. I think 5 spice was the culprit, but I am not sure. Mostly salty. Mandarin chicken was surprisingly tasty, and had more heat than expected. That name is attached to a variety of actual dishes, but this one definitely had the flavor of sha cha sauce, which is what I always hope for when ordering "Mandarin". But. SO. BROWN. Not a destination. If I lived down the block, and was too drunk to do anything but stagger over to Delicious, I would for sure do it. Or if I worked nearby it would probably come into lunch rotation occasionally by default. But, in general, I would not suggest anyone rush over there. read more

Double Cooked Pork was as delicious as I thought it was gonna be .So when I seen it on the Yelp app I have I just knew I had to have some and try some from here! read more

Oh I so wanted to like this place. It's close to home. It has chow mein in the name of the business. It's close to home. Unfortunately, two stars it is. We called in a takeout order and the woman told me 15 minutes. I arrived 13 minutes later and was glad that we chose takeout. The place itself is small and only has a few tables. They were fine but had old torn chairs and would not be a comfortable place to sit and eat a meal. It also looked like the couple who runs it practically lives there. I spotted a pair of their shoes haphazardly cast off to the side in the dining room (weird) and boxes of fortune cookies, plastic ware and cups are stacked up on the edge of the room. Not very inviting or comfortable. On the plus side, the area where the gentleman was doing the cooking had white tile and it looked spotless. God bless them, I love a restaurant that keeps the cooking area clean. Upon my arrival, the woman greeted me and told me it would be a few more minutes. There was one other man also waiting for his food. I offered to pay so that I could just walk out with my food and the woman seemed a little annoyed but did take my payment. Then I waited. And waited. The guy's food came. Another guy arrived. I waited. 15 minutes of waiting (and double the amount of time that I was told on the phone) and my food was ready. When I got home, the food was eh. We got eggrolls, which were OK but largely cabbage. But still good flavor and nicely wrapped and fried. We got fried dumplings, which were pretty good. I did like that they gave me (upon request) a little cup of that awesome chili oil that a lot of Chinese places have on the table. So good. The two dishes we got were just kind of eh. We got double cooked pork and pork with the Cantonese pan fried noodles. The pan fried noodles were not what I expected. They were more like those puffy rice noodles that were put in a deep fryer rather than the egg noddles fried in a skillet the way I think of. Both came in a brown sauce, and while one was sweet and one was more salty, they were practically identical at first glance. We honestly couldn't tell which was which at first. Overall, the food was really salty. Like I actually stopped eating before my first plate was done because I felt like I ate a salt lick. Also, while some items were plenty hot, others were lukewarm by the time we sat down to eat. I think it was the net result of one guy trying to cook four items... he did one first and that was the coldest. I am not sure we will be back soon. read more

Delicious Chow Mein - Chinese Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

This place is the real deal. Everything is made to order. There are no steam tables here. Sesame chicken and orange chicken are always crispy and never soggy. Not great for crowds unless you are a patient group because all items are made to order. Wonderful hot peppers in oil on the tables. Skip the appetizers and stick to the entrees. They are all good. read more

The food was horrible and the service was even worse. Eggrolls were burnt sweet and sour pork was like little stale balls of batter and the chow mein was the pits. Explained to the woman there but all she did was yell. Will NEVER RETURN read more

Good food! When you can actually order it. Their phone is always busy, and they don't have call waiting. I called 80 times in 30 minutes and never got through. This lost them my business. If you're able, go to the restaurant to order. I highly recommend Kengs Chow Mein up the street on Douglas. read more

I love the shrimp fried rice. always watch them make it. only like the husbands though when I was pregnant and craving this they would make exceptions to wait after hours for me to come get my food, which was really nice! read more

Best fried rice and egg roles in town Small restaurant with big flavor. I have been going there for 25+ years and they never disappoint. Anything you order she says 15min but it will be done in 10min read more

This is the ultimate mom and pop hole-in-the-wall. Pretty small when you enter but most people tend to place a call-in order and pick it up 10-15 min. later. Fiancé and I chose to just sit in and eat which was no biggie. I got a bowl of the hot and sour soup and it was spot on just what I wanted! Delicious flavor with a kick! We also ordered orange chicken to share which was plenty for the two of us. Lots of food for super cheap! Don't judge a book by its cover, it's great local food that's fresh and made right when you order. read more

I love the sesame chicken but my advice is make your own rice. Rice most of the time dries up in a few hours.

Great mom and pop restaurant. I would suggest ordering for take out. I highly suggest the orange chicken, its super crispy, sweet and spicy. read more

Love a good ma and pa restaurant. The food was great, the fried rice is a MUST. You get a lot of bank for your buck here too! They serve good portion size for what you pay for. Over all a good experience, will be going back! read more

I tried ordering for take-0ut and ask the lady what does she have that's seafood with vegetables and she said if I dont know what I want to just go to in the restaurant! And hung up the phone I understand your busy but im ordering take out through the phone for a reason what kind of customer service is that im never going here that's for sure! Very rude! read more

This place is our Chinese go-to in the neighborhood. Most expensive thing on the menu is about $20 for 4 servings, most things are between the $6-7 range if you do a dinner combo, and lunch specials are between $4-5. Much better than Leann Chins, Panda Express etc. and takes the same amount of time really. The food comes heaped on your plate, piping hot. The lady who runs the place is super nice, and her husband is the cook. He knows how to make some super delicious cuisine! They also have a take out menu so you can grab and go. read more

Best Chinese takeout that we've found. You nailed it again Yelp! Food was freshly made. Tried the Kung pao chicken based on another review and it was On Hit y'all. Fresh, flavorful, nice and spicy. This place knows what they are doing. Food is similar in style to what you'd expect from other places, but it's much tastier and fresher. Don't let the strip mall facade scare you away. The fried rice was definitely NOT made from someone else's leftover white rice, like some places. Can't wait to try the sesame chicken and orange chicken - next time. Get the spices & oil to go to add a little kick if you like. We requested No MSG and they said OK. (Another Chinese place we had called down the road couldn't do that, as everything was already pre made.) Not sure if it actually had MSG or not - my GI tract will kindly let me know in about an hour... Lastly, my 6 year old said they didn't give us enough fortune cookies. But I'm not docking them any stars for that. ;-) read more

Have been going here for years. Food is awesome and a great value. Wide menu selection. The biggest issue that's turned me away is sanitation. I along with others have seen the cook wipe nose and grab carrots. Also have watched him cough and then work with food.Have found mold on the hot sauce on the tables. Forks seem questionable for cleanliness too. I have gone back since but a lot of my coworkers won't go with me after they shared these experiences. read more

Food good and priced very reasonable. Not a place for those who rate restaurants by the glitter and of the decor and size of the bar. Noted the presence of neighborhood regulars, which I think is a good sign for a place that was by no means upscale. We had beef lo-mien, chicken chow mien, bbq pork fried rice, beef and broccoli, and egg rolls. All were good and everyone one had more than enough to eat. read more

Delicious Chow Mein is a real mom & pop hole in the wall, it's like walking into someones very old home (complete with shoes under chairs on the side!) and the first impression can be a bit daunting due to how old everything in the front of the house is. But surprisingly, it's actually very clean, and most importantly the kitchen is immaculate. We have got take out a couple of times, and each time it's been cheap and delicious. The servings are generous and everything tastes fresh & freshly cooked (another +, the place does not have that stale used oil smell a lot of Chinese restaurants have, I'm looking at you Leeann Chin). The Egg Drop soup is worth a special mention, as is the Chow Mein (which lives up to being Delicious!). But so far we haven't had anything less than good. They may not be the best in town, but they're our number 1 choice for takeout after having tried everyone in a 10 mile radius. You really can't ask for more. read more

Don't do it. Filthy does not describe how bad it was. I should have walked out, but I have had great food in a stinky alley before. The food was beyond bad. It was inedible. Who puts baby corn, snow peas, and celery in General Tso's chicken? Yak! read more

I should have known when I saw the tired strip mall and the pothole they call a parking lot to just keep driving but some of their reviews were good so I thought I would try them. The place itself was filthy to the point where the dirt and cobwebs were actually hanging from the ceiling usually not a good sign. The lady was hard to understand especially from behind her mask so I just had to assume she had my order right. The eggrolls were overdone and crispy but did taste OK. I cannot say the same for the pork egg foo yung which were in a dark jelly like sauce that made them way too salty. The chicken sub gum chow mein was the worst I've ever had... again too salty and I'm really not sure what all was in it because of the dark sauce that it was in. The rice was good (its hard to ruin rice). I have searched the city for good chow mein (since Cathay burned up in December) and have had little luck but for sure I will never come back here! read more

This is my go to for Chinese. The sesame chicken and orange chicken are great!! Prices are very good and you get a lot of food. Did have one time where some of my chicken was burned but I believe it was a fluke because I've never had that issue any other time. read more

I finally found my go to Chinese restaurant. Excellent General Tso's chicken, a better variation than many others. Mongolian Beef was spicy but still full of flavor (and they were happy to add broccoli at my request.) Looking forward to trying everything else on the menu! read more
