It has been a little while. Long enough that they have totally remodeled. What used to be a dingy little counter to make your order/pickup is now a wide open well lit space. There are tables and chairs. My "little go to hole in the wall" has grown up. The food is the same, solidly and consistently average. I like it because I know what I am going to get when I order an item. On this trip I had Twice Cooked Pork, lunch meal comes with egg roll and fried rice. The wife had vegetable fried rice and shrimp spring rolls. The rice was okay, not as much vegetable variety as she prefers. read more

I have been going there for years for food. But the last 3 times been very disappointed with the pricing, quality and quality of the food for $45.00. The pu-pu platter has always been my favorite. the pork ribs were very small 3.5" at best. The beef sticks 4" at best. The General's shrimp and rice was terrible, over cooked and very little sauce. Check out the health dept. rating. And if you have a eat in area you are to have bathrooms so if you get sick you have a place to go. NEVER EVER GOING THERE AGAIN! read more

Horrible, dirty. Food is just disgusting. I don't know why people order from here. The smell when you walk in is horrible. My go to place is Hong Kong Gourmet. read more

I lived right by this place for a year before finally trying it out. No complaints. The ordering process was easy, the menu pretty extensive, and the food was pretty good! It seems like your average Chinese takeout place, but I was very content with the chicken lo mein I ordered. I had every intention of eating half and saving the rest for later... but then I ate the whole carton. Sometimes the chicken in a lot of Asian noodle dishes can be dry and bland... but Hunan Odenton's chicken was GREAT! A lovely spot for your lo mein fix, I would definitely order again. read more

I'll keep it quick and simple. Ordered chicken fried rice, the house fried rice and a hot and sour soup. Both fried rice orders were outright disgusting. EXTREMELY oily, weirdly unflavored, unseasoned and the meat (The chicken and beef) looked strange. The hot and sour soup was just watery with no flavor. I would avoid this place. Not worth wasting your money here. read more

I order from Hunan occasionally and the food is always amazing. They deliver to me and the delivery driver is always very polite and prompt with my food. No hesitation, bop and drop! No door dash apps or third parties that most of the restaurants have now a days. It is there staff. The old school way! Thank you read more

I ordered from Hunan Odenton for the first and last time today. I ordered from DoorDash and after opening the closed and staples food bag, I found a tiny cockroach on the outside of the wonton bag. I immediately threw everything in the trash. DoorDash refunded my money and I placed an order with another restaurant. This is so nasty and disappointing. If there are roaches on the bags, you cannot trust what's in the food. read more

I wish I had read these reviews before ordering instead of relying on DoorDash reviews! The ribs had a freezer burn taste, the egg drop soup was bland and the seafood delight was mostly imitation crab. Only the egg rolls and the orange chicken were well prepared. read more

Don't even waste your money purchasing food from here. We ordered General Tso's chicken, vegetable delight, and beef lo mein and none of these items tasted good. For one, the sauce in the chicken wasn't even spicy at all, it was probably thickened soy sauce with sugar and the chicken was so saturated in breading that it was literally 90%breading and 10% chicken. The vegetables seemed fresh but the sauce was the same as what we got with the chicken. The lo mein was nasty, plain noodles and beef strips, no flavor what so ever. We ate two bites of each dish and everything else went in the trash.. so disappointing. read more

Okay so I wanna say I did not ever I think I would be a person to write a review like this but I'm legit upset. When you order food you expect your food to be made with basic decency and professionalism. Like I work in the fast food industry and I take so being responsible for others food SO SERIOUSLY and I enforce proper food safety with all my employees. That being said, where I live it's hard to find a good Chinese restaurant in this area. Today I ordered food through a third party app, I got wings in buffalo sauce. YALL WHY WAS THERE A BUG IN THE FOOD ME AND MY FAMILY WAS EATING ( pictured below) IM SO UPSET LIKE AS DRAMATIC AS IT SOUNDS I FEEL BETRAYED, like we all seen the videos and the baseless claims of what happens at Chinese restaurants and I can not believe it happened to me. Getting a order wrong is one thing BUT A BUG ! No do better like I legit threw up thinking omg how many did I eat and it was UNDER A WING!!! I don't ever wanna take food outta no one mouth or stop no one from getting a bag but this is absolutely disgusting idc if it was small it got NO BUSINESS BEING IN THE FOOD I PAID FOR, I KNOW FIRST HAND THE INFLATION GOT PRICES GOIN UP AND I DIDN'T PAY FOR WINGS PLUS BUG read more

Unarguably the best Chinese in Odenton! Inexpensive, great food, awesome customer service, fast no-charge delivery (told 45+ min delivery, received in under 30) Sweet and Sour Chicken is pretty good, the chicken is like most other places but the sauce is what makes it better than others. The fried rice wasn't that great, but my roommate said it was exactly how she likes hers cooked. Just depends on how you like your fried rice. Ordered the lemon chicken on a whim and I'm glad I did. Holy. Crap. The chicken is amazing. Was not expecting for it to taste that great. Definitely was not expecting the lemon sauce to make it twice as delicious. A whole tub of this sauce (consistency like sweet and sour) is enough for the chicken, broccoli, rice, and to store in fridge for other food to be dipped in. Please try this dish out for the lemon sauce - you won't regret it! Egg Drop Soup - Best I've had. Roommate agreed. The cat agreed. You'll agree. Order of two egg rolls and received an extra one #thankyou #ily read more

Excellent variety of dishes, including classics like chicken with broccoli, egg/spring rolls, fried rice and Lo Mein. At our group dinner, the chef also prepared specialities. Great for children, as seeing the appetizing food encourages them to try "just one bite". read more

Very convenient & food is service is good. The spring rolls are a must ! I always order the vegetables lo mien and fried rice. Food always hot and ready frequently order take out here. read more

Absolutely disgusting. Sesame Chicken was too sweet and sweet bet powered the entire dish. Fried rice was just ok. Egg roll tasted not so fresh. The broccoli was over cooked and mushy and my chicken was fried so hard there was no meat. When I called to express how I felt after spending 23$ for my delivery all he said I was "oh I'm sorry" how bout you re-cook my food. This was the absolute worse Chinese food I've ever had in my 45 years. I absolutely love Asian food. Very disappointed with the food and customer service. I DO NOT RECOMMEND this not even to my enemies. I had to come back and add that I've been on the toilet since I threw my plate of food in the trash. They must not be clean!! read more

It tastes ok. About $10 for a large portion of food, which is nice, but the taste of the food is nothing special. I've only gotten takeout from this place, and their takeout service is good. They prepared the food for takeout quite quickly, which was nice. read more

I got the lobster fried rice and beef broccoli. The lobster fried rice didn't seem to really have lobster in it... more like just dried up pieces of shrimp. The beef in the broccoli was soft and chewy. And both dishes tasted about the same. Needs more actual flavor rather than just msg and oil. But how much can you expect from Chinese takeout? Well I don't expect to pay $40 for two items and be disappointed... read more

Taste is very subjective so might as well write about the service and quality. If you can get past the interior layout the worker's were nice throughout my time of ordering and leaving. Found their food to be good quality and well priced for their dinner combination plates. read more

Situated in a lackluster building next to a bar and a Package Good store. The inside isn't much better off but don't let this sway you as the food is good, fresh made, and tasty. Take out is, in my opinion, larger than other take-out establishments and as already mentioned, quite tasty. You can't go wrong ordering a take out here! read more

Hunan Odenton - Chinese Near Me - Odenton, Maryland

This place has become my go-to spot for Chinese takeout. Pretty much everything on the menu is awesome! Huge portions, lots of flavor, and many options to choose from. The combination platter is what I normally get. Includes an entree, egg roll, and white or fried rice. The wonton soup is out of bounds delicious! They drive it through flavor town and put it in a bowl :-) As far as the establishment itself, it doesn't scream "OMG have to stop their and eat inside" But, it does have your typical takeout vibe to it. Nothing special. They do have seating inside but I never see people dining inside. The service is pretty awesome too. They always give you an estimated time when your food will be ready which is great. So, grab your chopsticks...if you can, and enjoy some awesome Chinese food. read more

Hunan Odenton - View of buffet - Chinese Near Me - Odenton, Maryland

Hunan Odenton is one of the original great Chinese take out spots in the area. I am so loyal to them and it's been over 10 years.

Not good - go somewhere else. The sauces on the orange chicken and Hunan chicken were not good - goopy and with a poor taste, as if someone mixed sugar into soy sauce. The fried orange chicken was soggy, the broccoli had no crunch. The Hunan chicken was served in a huge bed of veggies and thinly sliced strips of chicken, but again, the sauce just wasn't good. They said the Hunan chicken was spicy but it just tasted like sweetened soy sauce. The rice was good, though, fluffy and clumpy. The egg rolls and steamed dumplings were average. read more

I've had really good luck with the food from this restaurant-by delivery only. I enjoy their chicken lo mein and their egg rolls. Recently I noticed they were adding mushrooms to the lo mein and I've been picking them out. Mushrooms should be a choice, not simply added. For that reason, I have lowered my star rating from 5 to 4. read more

Would you like to ride a time machine? Then go inside this place and get blasted to the past. The interior of this place is a deterrence to eating here but I ordered some take-out here anyhow. You definitely need to check out the restrooms--a brow raiser, in a curious way, LOL The lo-mein was very good--they don't use a lot of cooking oil which makes it light and better for the stomach. However, their Hot & Sour soup was a pass---not very good. I had passed here a bunch of times and was craving for some Chinese food, and well, now you have it. read more

I ordered from this restaurant to give them a try. We were looking for that one place out of the way that people may flock to. I've seen a lot a cars there as I pass by but I will say that it was the worst food mistake I could have ever made. The food here was horrible. I ordered the Shrimp toast. Other places put bite size shrimp in theirs but this place had some sort of mushy fishy substance that felt and tasted like fat in your mouth. I ordered two orders. It was so greasy as you bit into them. Threw up immediately. I also ordered Singapore Mei Fun and Beef lo mein. The entire meal was a waste of money. My wife and daughter also threw up from the taste and the high amounts of oil that was in the food. If I can give them a zero I would. I warn you do not eat at this restaurant. HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE! I threw all of the food away. We could not get the taste out of our mouths. STAY AWAY. Best Asian cuisine I've had in this area is Grace Garden. Cost is a little more but the food there will not disappoint you. read more

Above average chinese food. Meaning the chicken tastes like chicken and the fried rice ain't half bad. The do their own delivery, which is a huge plus. read more

I ordered a few meals from this place when I tried it for the first time. All were extremely disappointing and I will never return. Also, when I picked up the place had a very bleachy smell to it and I didn't smell any food cooking. Shrimp spring rolls -- 1/2 a tiny shrimp was in each...mostly cabbage General Tsos chicken -- very, very, VERY little chicken was in all the breading. The flavor/sauce was good but it was all overly fried breading. Fried rice -- the eggs in the rice were burnt so all the rice had a bad taste Chicken with Chinese vegetables -- blah read more

I was so disappointed in my order. I ordered 3 items from the menu and only one was enjoyable. The combo lo mein was dry and lacked seasoning, the pork fried rice was dry and the rice was hard and not seasoned. The only decent item was the generals tso chicken. I can't believe I spent over &50.00 doe this. It was not a pleasant experience. Not to mention I ordered a large and receive a pint. read more

I've been eating at Hunan Odenton since the 90's, back when my Air Force buddies and I would go for the lunch buffet. Cheap, and good food. Fast forward to many years later, out of the Air Force and living in Piney Orchard. We order delivery from this place at LEAST once a month. My wife and I LOVE their food...I'm 43 years old and I've had lots and lots of Chinese food. This place is up there with the best I've had. I'm absolutely dumb founded by the negative reviews about the food. Sure, the place is a dump on the outside...but really, this is about the food, right? :) Don't let the negative reviews scare you off. I've been eating here for 20+ years with NO BAD EXPERIENCES. Delivery is ALWAYS prompt and the food is ALWAYS nice and warm still. I absolutely love this place. Hopefully my 5 stars will boost the overall rating just a little. You jerks handing out 1 stars to local businesses after ONE VISIT need to reevaluate your lives. Really. read more

Scary on the outside, yummy on the inside. My husband and I have eaten there numerous times and it is never busy. The food is made fresh when you order off the menu, but nothing was touched at the buffet for the hour we sat and ate our meal, so I would personally avoid it. Our favorite dish is the crispy beef, and we always get a Pu-Pu Platter appetizer that is delicious. The inside of the place is rather old and outdated, so don't go here looking for a modern restaurant. If you can get past the scary outter facade and the no-frilld interior, this place is really delicious. read more

I had dinner at Hunan Odenton around 7:45 last night. The place was nearly empty and we were the only customers for most of the time there. Several take out customers did stop by to pick up their orders during that time. Service was friendly and prompt. The wait for the food wasn't too long. Regrettably, the server never refilled our drinks; not a big issue for us at the time. Both our dinner combinations were very good. The soups were hot and the entrees were flavorful. The fried rice wasn't as hot as I expected and the egg roll was rather bland; mostly cabbage inside. The menu indicates they have an inexpensive lunch buffet on weekdays and a surprisingly inexpensive dinner buffet on Saturday starting at 4:30. The buffet area is not very large so I expect the variety of items might be rather limited. I will be back again and I intend to try the buffet on some Saturday. read more

I am a take-out regular here, so I have had a good mix of the items on their menu. A couple thoughts: 1. There are several places in the area with "Hunan" in the name and I have overheard phone order confusion several times when picking up my food. Pro tip: Verify which place you called and avoid an awkward apologetic conversation. 2. Of the several "Hunan" places in the immediate area, this is my favorite. 3. The closest competitor (Hunan 'L Rose) to this place also has pretty solid food and has been around for a long time, but I find them to be way overpriced. Both are tasty, and this place doesn't try to rob you of your paycheck with $11 fried rice and $16 entrees. $7.95 - $10/11 is much more reasonable for a comparable product in my opinion. You will find all prices substantially cheaper here than the local competition. 4. I'd imagine they do fantastic delivery and pick-up business compared to dine-in. The restaurant itself is sorely overdue for a remodel, so if I were to dine-in and concerned about ambiance and vibe, I'd suggest maybe going elsewhere. 5. Recommendations: Pork Egg Foo Young... It is tough to find a place that does it well. The fried rice is good, fried dumplings are legit, and all of the chicken or beef dishes I've had have been good. Frankly, I haven't been disappointed yet. Bottom line: My Chinese take out go-to spot... food is as good as anywhere around and WAY cheaper. Aside from being a candidate for a decor makeover on food network, the combination of tastiness and value make it a ideal take-out or delivery option. (Although I have not had them deliver to me, so I cannot rate that part) read more
