They make the BEST vegetable dumplings. They're round rather than the usual shape of Chinese dumplings, which makes me think they may make them. But anyway, usually veggie dumplings are mostly cabbage and carrots and rice noodles, but these have so much more flavor with bits of tofu and shiitake mushrooms! read more

If I could give this place a zero star I would. My family and i ordered 3 orders of general tso chicken and this contains egg shells in every single order. I immediately called to tell them and they said it was OKAY! This is when I was ready to lose it. I told them it was not okay and that my 5 and 7 year old children were the ones going to eat it. I was told I was going to be transferred to a manager and while getting switched it you could here them going back and forth. When the manager got on she tried to explain to me that it wasn't egg shells. I have had general tso many times from this place and many other locations and I make eggs at home so I know what egg shells are. They told me they would talk to the person who prepared the food that day I told them that was still unacceptable that my children could have gotten sick and she had nothing to say but she was sorry and that she would send me free donuts... I will be calling a health department or something because this is something that anyone who packed my food would have seen as it was very noticeable.. read more

See all

Good fast food Chinese at great prices. Save the coupons from their menu. I always get free steam (or fried) chicken dumplings after spending $15 ($4.95 value). Best spicy dish is the crispy shredded beef. Not too keen on some of their shrimp/seafood dishes and they lack vegetables (broc) in the sesame chicken & gen zso chicken. Otherwise as picky as I am on Chinese this place ranks good with me. Watch out for the high amount of sodium used. read more

Food was just okay, if not blah! I was near the area and ordered this based on a quick Yelp search. It was freshly made but the taste was just not there. read more

Singapore rice noodles with chicken, shrimp and vegetables were very good, not too spicy. Pan fried pork and vegetable dumplings were good and better for the steamed veg dumplings. Chicken dumplings were deep fried not pan fried as stated. read more

This place is exactly what I want for a local take-out / delivery Chinese food restaurant! It doesn't disappoint yet it also doesn't wow you with anything special - it's all the Chinese food I grew up enjoying & available for me to have nearby. Firstly you have to know that you're getting deliciously unhealthy Chinese food; this is true for just about any place unless you get the steamed veggie option - then you're skipping the delicious part! So this place delivers on that promise. Some items are delicious - the steamed dumplings and soups are favorites in our house. Some items are blah - the fried rice is plentiful but not moist enough for our liking. Additionally, most items do not microwave well since they do not have the proper amount of moisture - so the food looses the eatable factor if you have it for leftovers. They do have one item on the menu that we ordered which was different - the Chow Foon. It's wide noodles - like Thai Drunken Noodle - except it's totally mild. I'd recommend getting that to try since it was good / different. We tend to order delivery from them at least once every 2 weeks and it's always delivered faster than we expect. read more

I would give zero if I could. Half peking duck was not even a half and taste really bad. I ordered delivery, the person charged me for dinner menu(Kung Pao Shrimp) when it was 12:20pm. I wanted seafood friend rice. She charged another $17 because it was not on their menus. It was quite expensive for Chinese food so I hesitated then the lady who works their said "We are busy hurry up!!" I gave my credit card information then she just hung up. It was the worst experience I've ever had from all restaurants combined. Food was awful and the service was extremely bad. Don't go there. read more

Driest Chinese food ive ever had... i swear it was drier than a popeyes biscuit. The chicken was so dry & hard smh... Good customer service though ;-) read more

I have ordered delivery from this place for the past 15 years! Always get what I ordered, taste good and fast service. The only thing is I wish they would offer gluten free soy sauce then I would give it 5 stars. read more

First time ordering from this place and already disappointed. I ordered last night, 09/25/13 and it took 1hr to get the food delivered. The combination lomein was very dry, peppered pork was wayyyyyy too spicy and very little amount of meat and it's more of jalapeño pepper in it. Same thing with chicken with garlic sauce, it's more of veggies than meat. Base on these experiences, will never order from this place. read more

I am super picky about my Chinese food but this place is one I trust. Every order I have received from them has not only been prompt, but has also tasted well above the rest in this area. I love the vegetable egg rolls and the sweet and sour chicken. My boyfriend gets the sesame chicken and he really likes it as well. I have truly been waiting for a Chinese carry out place that I trust and enjoy the food. No complaints! read more

Still waiting on dinner...after 2 deliveries this evening Hunan Kitchen still got the order wrong! Initially placed an order for broccoli with chicken and General Tso's chicken. The delivery was prompt, but instead of broccoli with chicken we got broccoli in garlic sauce. A call to the restaurant yielded an apology and an offer to send the correct order. After waiting a second time for what was already an overdue dinner, broccoli WITHOUT chicken in a brown sauce was delivered to our door. The icing on the cake was when the delivery person asked for the broccoli in garlic sauce to take back with him! I wanted to call the restaurant back, but the person whose dinner order was a lost cause said no, and that we would not be ordering from Hunan Kitchen again. read more

NOM NOM NOM, the best delivery Chinese. Even more perfect you can order online!!!!! OMG. in the almost 10 years we've been ordering from them I think I maybe had only 1 mess-up in an order where they forgot a drink or something innocuous, but they remembered me on the next order and made everything right. Excellent customer service, extremely polite and friendly people if you call in your order. They are usually swamped busy so sometimes the busy-ness of the restaurant can make you turn up the volume on your phone if calling in. I've had no problems with their online ordering. More than 90% of the time the food is delivered within 10-15 minutes of calling (granted I live only .7 miles from the restaurant). I've never ordered ANYTHING I didn't absolutely love. They don't seem to have any bad dish. And their tea's !!!!! excellent selection of delicious tea. Fresh ingredients always used, even their peking duck - delivery- is absolutely exceptional. Cannot say enough good things about them. the price is absolutely perfect for the quality and taste of the dinners. Best eggdrop soup ever! Non-greasy spring rolls and egg rolls! Fresh and flavorful shrimp in abundance in all the shrimp dishes and they fully accommodate any extra shrimp requests (we've lived in NYC and have been used to the " add $3 extra shrimp" request". Hunan Kitchen is always is good to us!!!!! We love them!! :D read more

I tried the Hunan Kitchen for the first time last night for delivery services. I was told that the wait would be 25-50 min, but the delivery took an hour and 10 min. To be fair to the restaurant and delivery man, the weather was terrible last night. However, to compensate me for the waiting time, the ordering manager gave me the food (total = $35) for free and apologized. I thought that this was over and beyond what was to be expected and the food was absolutely delicious! I will definitely continue to call the restaurant for future deliveries... read more

I like a lot of Asian inspired food, but this place wasn't as good as i excepted. I would definitely recommend the egg rolls.

A friend and I went here for lunch and ordered different meals, general tso's and chicken lo mein. They were lunch specials. The waitress brought out two egg rolls which appeared way over cooked. A minute later, she came back saying that just one of us was supposed to get an egg roll and took one back. She took mine back and I didn't know at first but I was supposed to get the egg roll. That's ok because I wouldn't have wanted it the way it looked and started wondering if the rest of my meal was gonna be like that. The rest of the food came out right away as if it was sitting in the back already. Both meals tasted subpar but the kicker was that we both got sick immediately afterwards. I think it was too much salt or msg. Our heads started to hurt with pressure behind our eyes with stomach pain. Terrible! This place is for the dogs. No pun intended! ;) read more

I would rate these people with a 0 if I could. When I ordered dinner this evening, I told the girl that I had a coupon for a free crab rangoon as the total was over $20, not counting the crab rangoon. She said OK, but when the food was delivered there were two orders of crab rangoon, only one of which I was charged for. Although I did get a free crab rangoon, I didn't want two orders - I wanted what I asked for. When I called back and asked to speak with the manager, the phone was passed around several times. Either they didn't know who their manager was or they needed to find someone who could understand English. It must have been the latter as the woman that I spoke with told me that because they "are not Americans" they can't always understand what is said to them. I replied that she's in business and needs to understand the difference between "one" and "two". She repeated her nonsense about not understanding English. It's a great excuse for not doing what you don't want to do, isn't it? Looking back, I wish I had given one of the crab rangoon boxes back to the driver and deducted the amount from what I paid him. Of course, he was Latino and couldn't understand English either when I tried to explain the problem to him initially. I agree with Hannah Y that the crab rangoon is mostly fried dough and little in the way of filling. Don't order the shrimp tempura - bloated, partially cooked outside that cover how small the shrimp is inside. (I did ask how big the shrimp were when I ordered, but of course, they couldn't understand that question either.) Bottom line - Avoid Hunan Kitchen! If you decide to give them your business, let's hope they use some of their income for English lessons. Oh no, then they would have to actually be responsive to their customers... read more

Tired and tasteless food. I've eaten here off and on for 5 years. The food has really gone downhill and today was the last straw for me. Lo Mein looked and tasted old (not fresh), just a few tiny pieces of chicken. The dumplings were overcooked and tasteless. Egg roll had cabbage but not much else - very bland.. Chicken and Beef on skewers were very tough and overcooked. read more

Always hot and fast for those nights we get home later than normal. I mean fast. I can order and it is often here before I get changed out of my work clothes. After reading these reviews I will need to try the shredded beef. thanks yelpers.. read more

Better than Szechaun Star or Duck Chang's or the place next to Harris Teeter's. It takes the cake for Chinese takeout around this part of Annandale. Moo Shi Pork, sesame chicken are good. Not an award winner, or inventive, but decent. read more

I am very happy with my first delivery order. At 7 pm on a Saturday, not only was it amazingly fast and hot, and a reasonable price, but the food was especially good. I was craving mu shoo chicken, and it did not disappoint. It had plenty of fresh crunch and mushroom flavor, plus a nice smoky undertone. The beef in the beef with broccoli was tender and peppery, and the eggplant in garlic sauce was fresh, rich and perfectly cooked al dente. The staff asked if I wanted a side of spicy sauce, and that was a nice touch. I will be calling on them again! read more

This place is awesome. My husband and I get it all the time. Good prices and fast delivery. My husband always gets pad Thai. I really like the walnut shrimp, cashew chicken and broccoli beef. Lo mein, fried rice and hot&sour soup are excellent as well. They also have coupons :) read more

My family loves this place. Good food! Service is great! The folks remember my order whether I pick-up or have it delivered. The staff is always pleasant. I'm glad I found this place. I love the Jumbo shrimp fried rice. I always end up having leftovers. Drivers are always nice and polite. I've never had a problem with them messing up my order or not understanding me. I think this is a great place. read more

As a caveat, this is a rating for their delivery service. We live within their delivery radius and have tried them three times. Each time the food was timely and what we expected. read more

I Tried this with a friend the other night who said this is the place to go in Annandale, it was good but to me nothing really special. I really like peeking café ill be taking her there next time, I recommend you try peeking café and this place defiantly the 1-2 spots here in northern Virginia. read more

Ordered Steamed Dumplings delivery and received fried dumplings instead. Not a big deal, called back to ask if they could send the steamed dumplings instead. When they came back (50 mins later) they wanted the fried dumplings back. To do what with? Your guess is as good as mine. Food was also mediocre. read more

By far the best Chinese food I have had in the area! Spring Rolls, Crab Ran-goons, General Tso's Chicken, Hunan Beef - all GREAT!

I have eaten here many times before, but this might be my last time. I usually order the General Tso's or Orange chicken with either shrimp or combination fried rice. This time I got the orange chicken with just regular fried rice. The orange chicken was very much undercooked and the rice was overcooked. At the moment I didn't care because I was on break and needed something to eat, but when I got back to work I was constantly in the bathroom vomiting. I truly do believe this was my last time dining there. read more

I have them saved in my phone as "Good General Tso". Quick delivery, friendly employees and good food. The search for good Chinese food ends here read more

I use to live in the Pinecrest and moved away. Sadly I am now back but there is one good thing HUNAN KITCHEN. Thanks for making the best tasting Chinese food from the west to the east! read more

It looks like they are selective as to which customer they greet when someone walks into the place. I thought we all pay the same color, green dollars!!! The service was terrible. The place smelled unpleasant. The food was at best close to average. I felt uncomfortable as they seemed to be uncomfortable with my business there. Never will I go back there!!! read more
