When you're NOT use to being able to even find a Chinese restaurant you'd eat at because in this part of Texas it's always been Americanized so much it's horrible. This place I've ordered from three times now. Each time the food has been constant. It's Good. Again for this area of Texas based on the others it's the only Chinese Restaurant I've ever returned to. I've never been in the red or eaten in. So this is purely a Togo experience all three times. The Spicy Crispy chicken without red pepper's is really good. It has a sweet flavor. But always crispy and hits the spot when you're craving Chinese food. Today we got the Spicy garlic edamame. They were good. Needed some salt but the flavor was really good. I always get the Curry Fried rice. Again has a sweet flavor. It's all basic I wouldn't tell you it's a must have experience. But a great place to have when you're use to Not being able to order Chinese food at all. read more

Unfortunately my food had a bad taste to it. The chicken seemed to be borderline spoiled/sour, and the rice was not fresh and smelled off putting. I really hate writing bad reviews, and maybe they just had an off day. The food arrived very very hot, and I ordered off of Uber. I could not recommend this place. On a positive note, I request spicy sauce and utensils which they included. read more

We tried this place the other day and had the walnut shrimp which was the best walnut shrimp we've ever had.We also ordered eggplant and green beans which was also the best eggplant and green beans stirfry we've ever had as well. The fried rice was really good and the customer service was excellent. I would definitely recommend this place. Oh let's not forget the crispy spicy chicken. It was delicious and very crispy and fresh. It's kinda hard to believe all that bad reviews but when we went, it was really good so hopefully you guys will give them a try again. read more

Clean, welcoming, value and most of all, Quality! Will frequent this place for a long time read more

I hate leaving negative reviews but this is what I'd experience. I went there for lunch and got a lunch orange chicken and it was not like other Chinese restaurants. The chicken was in a milky orange flavor sauce. It had to much sauce and taste like it had to much artificial flavor. Maybe their other dishes might be good. read more

Food makes me want to stop eating Chinese service was great close to my home just not what I'm used to when it comes to Chinese food

Great food and excellent service! The dining area and kitchen were very clean. I ordered the Japanese chicken, cilantro beef, and egg foo young, and everything was fresh, flavorful, and delicious. You can tell they use quality ingredients. I will definitely come back again read more

Fan Chinese restaurant - beef egg foo young - Chinese Near Me - Melissa, Texas

Solid chinese spot, definitely impressed after moving to the DFW region, that there can be good chinese food. I always rate a chinese place off how good they make their egg roll, this place passed the vibe check. Four stars, and will continue using this place as long as I live in the area. read more

Ordered takeout last night and wasn't quite satisfied. The orange chicken was really chewy and I couldn't manage to breakdown half of the pieces. The fried rice was subpar, didn't include any veggies and just a sliver of egg. I will say that the crab Rangoon is good and the Thai tea was delicious! I would go back for the Thai tea, it was $5 and in a pretty large cup. In regards to the food, I don't think I'd order from here again. read more

Friendly, helpful service. Clean and fresh decor. The food was amazing. We tried the Eggplant with pork, orange chicken, sweet and sour chicken, wonton soup, and chicken fried rice. All the chicken dishes were made with white meat. Everything came to the table freshly made and piping hot. Highly recomment Fan! read more

We came as first customers on their opening day! Easy to park in front of the store. Plenty space to sit inside. Their floor and booth seats are clean and not sticky! Their food taste fresh and not too salty or oil. I love their Kung Pao chicken and Cumin Beef a lot. The Sweet & Sour pork taste exactly the same as the dishes where it came from! Reasonable price and good portion. And they have a clean restroom. We will be back. read more

Very disappointed with my experience. The customer service was horrible, and one of the male employees was extremely rude. There was confusion with my order, and he almost made me pay for my food twice before the issue was resolved. On top of that, the food was not worth the price. I won't be returning and would not recommend this place based on my experience. read more

Very fresh and very good!. Excellent food. Services, quick and polite.They have large portions and the chicken in the general Tao's chicken was high-quality. The lunch entrées also come with soup or an egg roll. read more

Very nice people and a nice clean place. I especially enjoyed the hot & sour soup, calamari, everything on the po po platter and the general chicken was great read more

Food: looked good when it was served but was chewy and was bland. I had ordered the orange chicken and found it bland, uninteresting and not wanting to eat it again. Service: Was average nothing special Ambiance: better than normal but expected with how they advertised read more

I ordered a beef fried rice. It was OLD rice with no flavor and the Beef seemed defrosted, chewy and Old as well. I order wonton soup asking the waitress how many wontons in the large size? She said 4 hence I ordered 2 large size of wonton soup. Well, after seeing the soup, I believe she meant the large size FEEDS 4 ppl. Language barrier and food is terrible! read more

I don't really write very many reviews, but I am big on reading reviews of places that I go eat at. I just left this place of business as I went there to have dinner so I wanted to leave a review that might be helpful to others considering how there are a lot of mixed reviews. I noticed how all of the bad reviews spoke about how terrible the food was, but I also noticed how all of the good reviews spoke on how great the food was - so I was very torn on giving it a try. I can't speak for everything on the menu as I only had two of the items, but I can speak on how great the two items were. I ordered the spicy edamame as an appetizer and it was probably top 5 out of all the ones that I've ever had - though I will say that if you don't like spice, I wouldn't recommend because it definitely has a kick to it but nonetheless delicious. For my main entrée, I ordered the general tso chicken and while I was hesitant because I saw some of the bad reviews about this one I still decided to give it a try because it's one of my favorite entrées and let me just say it did not disappoint. It was full of flavor and had the perfect texture/crunch to it- the chicken tasted great and the sauce was phenomenal so I'm not too sure what the bad reviews were about. I will also add that I am very particular about the food that I eat (my poor bf having to deal with this lol), especially when it comes to chicken, so take my word when I say that this was a fantastic dish. My boyfriend also ordered an appetizer which I think was the chicken spring roll and then had the lo mein beef entrée(I believe) - both of which he enjoyed. I also want to add how big the portions were for the entrées, which was really nice because you can always take the rest home as leftovers and enjoy it as a second meal. Overall, I will be returning to this place of business and it's very unfortunate to read all of the bad reviews and know that I almost didn't give it a chance, but I'm really glad that I did. :) One more thing I wanted to add was how friendly the staff was in my interactions with them! Highly recommend and for those bad reviews - give it a second chance!!! read more

Ordered to go and had the following: Green beans: 4 out 5. This was the best thing we had! Full of flavor and pretty good. Came with white rice. Chicken fried rice 2.5 out of 5. The taste was off and veggies and rice needed to be cooked longer. Chicken udon noodle 3 out of 5. Bland and no flavor. Beef flat noodles 3 out of 5. Bland and no flavor. read more

We came here Saturday night around 5:30ish. They were semi busy; definitely busy with take out. The guy at the counter who took our order was friendly. The place is actually very pretty inside; I was honestly expecting just a take out place but the seating area is nicely done. They definitely need a designated take out area because people were just piled in not knowing where to go. They don't have fountain drinks which may pose a problem with some folks. And the food came out fairly quick; it came staggered out but all in all in a timely fashion. We ordered a good amount of food. We ordered the chicken eggrolls which were decent but nothing fabulous. 3/5 on those. The crab rangoon which I liked better 4/5. My complaint would be the consistency on the sauce for both appetizers; it was sooooo runny. And a Mae Ploy sauce might be a better alternative. The kids split a chicken on a stick kids meal, which was good, they liked it. My husband ordered the sesame chicken and his friend a spicy orange chicken. I normally do not like the "Americanized" dishes like those, but if you're into fried chicken with a sauce both of them were decently tasty. I ordered the spicy scallops with garlic sauce and the mapo tofu with minced pork. Both were tasty but the tofu was my favorite. 5/5 on that one for me. They actually used Szechuan peppers and weren't afraid to use it! Great balance in flavor and spice. I think this place will do decent after they work all the kinks out and get a rhythm going. Definitely better than the other place by Lemon Drop with better pricing. I do like they have a more authentic selection in some dishes. Definitely will come back in a few months to reevaluate my review; but it wasn't terrible! read more

Amazing! Service, the best employees, I feel like I am in Chinatown across from downtown again. The waiters & staff are phenomenal, the pork and lamb in my humble opinion is Melissa top affaires! They have a great business, fyi there online orders are the best in a 50 mile radius, & I love course à pied over there read more

Let me say first that the decor is well done. Our service was simply exceptional, fast, friendly, and genuinely caring. The food was fresher than fresh, arrived quickly, and exceedingly tasty. Don't hesitate to have a meal at Fan. read more

Twice I have been to this restaurant- ordered sweet & sour chicken the first time and General tso chicken second time - both times the meat was very dry and chewy, seemed like it had been either re-cooked or old - overly, thickly coated with sauce - egg rolls tasted like they were frozen product - bottled water lid was not sealed indicating it was re-used - counter service was pleasant, the restaurant itself was nice and clean - won't go back - meat being re-used or re-heated, something very off with the meat. Sorry, I was hopeful for better food at this restaurant. read more

This had to be the worst Chinese food I've ever had in my life. The chicken had been soaked in the sauce for what seemed like it had to be for days. It was so dry. The fried rice was sticky and dry. The egg in it was stringy and dry. There was no moisture to anything if they had put the sweet-and-sour sauce in a cup separate like any other Chinese restaurant Then it would've added some moisture, but everything was sticky and dry and had to been sitting cooked pre-cooked before I ever ordered it I will not be going back. I cannot attest to ambience because I've not been inside. I ordered this for pick up. The service was quick but now I know why because it had to been pre-cooked for days. read more

Best Chinese food so far that I've had in north suburbs of Dallas. Huge portions and authentic flavor. Highly recommended. read more

It's good and it's made fresh it has a nice kick to it it's warm and makes you feel cozy on the inside

The spicy ramen is what I order every time. I rate it 4.5 out of 5 stars. The fried rice is average. The service is great as well.

Great food for take out or dine in. Generous portions. The seating area is a light and airy atmosphere. Friendly staff and waiters. Order at front counter. We love it. read more

Zero clue why there are so many negative Karen reviews on here. My order was amazing. Staff was amazing. Prices were genuinely cheap. Always judge a Chinese food restaurant by their hot and sour soup. (Theirs was absolutely amazing!!!) I would highly recommend. Great atmosphere too. read more

My husband and I came in here for lunch and did one of the lunch specials each he had the sweet-and-sour chicken with pineapple white rice and eggroll and I had chicken with vegetables and egg drop soup. This is the nicest Chinese food I have had in a very long time we're so glad that it's local. It's very nicely decorated inside and the people that own it and serve are very attentive. I would highly recommend this place. read more

This restaurant is disgustingly dirty, stuff is very rude especially a guy who uses a very bad way when talking to people, and the waiting time is too long even when nobody there read more

Overall good experience. Service is very friendly and interior is nice. We had take out once and dined in once. Very nice to have a good Chinese spot here in Melissa. We love that it is family owned and the harmony in the restaurant. Everyone is having a good day and it shows through in their food and hospitality. I am a fan of Fan. read more

Do not eat anything from this restaurant. We ordered combo fried rice and combo lo mein. The meat was undercooked in both orders. No sure how you screw up on those type orders. read more

Honestly some of the better take out Chinese food I've had. The dishes don't seem to be overloaded with fat and sugar like a lot of take out, which was a nice surprise. Will definitely be ordering from here again. read more

food is great for the pricing. Restaurant is clean and orderly. staff is extremely nice

Absolutely the worst Chinese food I have ever had. We ordered multiple things and everything was bland and overcooked. Money wasted.

Fan Chinese Restaurant is known for its fresh, authentic, and delicious food offerings. Located in Melissa, this establishment maintains a clean and inviting environment, making it a great choice for dining. read more

I had high hopes based on the atmosphere and service, which were both decent--but unfortunately, the food was not it. Everything we ordered was bland and tasteless, lacking any real flavor or seasoning. It honestly felt like the dishes had been reheated rather than freshly prepared, and they arrived suspiciously fast under two minutes from ordering which only reinforced that impression. Disappointing overall won't be returning for the food. read more

So good! Large portions on to go orders. Everything was very yummy. Crab Rangoons omg amazing.

Not a Fan! Haha! Oh well. Another nasty Chinese place. Mongolia beef has about an ounce of beef and a lb of onion in the dish. The fried rice is the most bland I have ever eaten. (Try at least a little harder). Sesame chicken was good but that is it! read more

My family and I have been eating at Fan since the day it opened. The orange, sesame, and sweet/sour chicken are outstanding. Tonight I decided to mix it up and do the walnut shrimp...10/10 incredible. I have never had a bad piece of meat from this place. The staff is always very welcoming and they work very hard to get the food out in a hurry. 5 stars every time, keep up the good work!! read more
