    Fried Wonton- wanted to try this to see how it was. It's not what I expected and won't order it again.
    Kathleen W.

    We've ordered from here a couple times. Both delivery and pick up. The restaurant is not open so you can't dine in. I also ask for extra sweet and sour packets and never receive them unless I go to pick up the order and watch them add the packets. When you order online there are spots to add notes and that note always gets ignored. We ordered pineapple beef fried rice and no pineapple was added. Potstickers are hit or miss. Last time they were great. This time the dough was chewy. Egg rolls are usually good but tonight some of the egg roll wrap on the inside didn't seem cooked. There was also a small piece of shrimp in my vegetable egg roll. This could be an issue for someone that has a shellfish allergy

    Although the food came fast as is was a walk-in order, the food tasted subpar and unmemorable.

    I don't remember this restaurant. It was unmemorable. Delivery was fast though. I think I had jumbo shrimp egg too young and fried rice.

    Got some strip mall Chinese food in Oak Forest. It has a few tables inside if you really want to…read moreeat here. #1 Chop Suey is mostly to go orders. A lot of questionable tactics going on around. The prices are all wrong and always higher than they have listed. Crappy looking strip mall with this being on a side where it's actually hidden. It's almost as if they're trying to not let people find it. That may actually not be that bad of an idea for some restaurants. Actually it's better than expected. The food is okay but the prices suck. It's about $13 for an entree. We got the Kung Pao Tofu. It came in to go containers. On a tray. Bush league. We put the rice on the paper plates then put the entrees on top. A good thing was the flavor. There was quite a spiciness. Having a crappy way of presenting meals can ruin many restaurants but this one is still around if you can believe it. It's closed Mondays. They have a crappy interior but most customers get takeout so whatever.

    YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR…read more I have ordered food from this establishment in the past. It was a little expensive for what it was but the food was excellent so I had no real complaints. This experience was very different. The food was very average and the prices were relatively inexpensive.. One wonders if it was sold to new owners or if they gave up. The lobby/dining room was nothing special. There were a few diner tables, one of which was covered with business paperwork. It seemed like it was take out only. The kitchen was very cluttered. I couldn't imagine how they were able to cook and keep any standards. Not surprising that the food had suffered. As stated earlier the food was just okay. When asked they would not substitute fried rice for the accompanying white rice. I had to pay for it as a completely separate item. Unfortunately I cannot recommend this restaurant as the standards are extremely lacking.

I stopped in midday midweek and discovered a full parking lot with cars constantly coming and going, which is a good sign. Picked up my food and to my surprise I was impressed by the generous portions of food that were in my containers. In a situation like this, I of course ordered way too much food. In order to make a fair assessment I ordered a cross section of food from their pan Asian menu which includes Japanese, Chinese, Malaysian, Korean, Vietnamese and Thai. I had the teriyaki chicken lunch special, pad Thai with shrimp lunch special, and pork ramen. The lunch specials also included Chinese egg rolls and two coca colas. None of them where the best I have had, but they were pretty darn good enough and satisfying enough, that I can designate them a great bargain. In all honesty each order was enough for 3 to 4 people. I didn't have to cook lunch or dinner for the next few days! If you are, or are not, on a tight food budget I do recommend a stop in here for a great value meal.
