One of the few places in the burbs where you can get actual Chinese cuisine without driving down to Chinatown. The food is always excellent, service is good, prices are good. I want this joint to stay in business, so I'm doing a long form review and trying to get the spelling right. If you're unsure what to get, just go out there and try some random dish. I've been doing that for a few months and everything's been surprisingly good. If you're terrified, the Wuxi sweet & sour chicken is closest to a General Tso, and the Kung Pao is what it says it is, but expect Sichuan peppercorns and good heat. I can recommend the guobao sweet and sour fish, the sauce is homemade and has a lovely marmalade taste. The duck hot and sour soup is nothing like Americanized Chinese food hot and sour. The dry fried eggplant is witchcraft in vegetable form. Cumin lamb is delightful and massive. Dry pot hand ripped cabbage is great. One understated option is the peking duck combos. The combo for 2 is really enough for 3, and the combo for 4 is easily a 6 way split. Oh yeah, be careful entering and exiting. 309 is unforgiving. read more

This restaurant is very nice and clean. We were seated immediately. We had everything rice- it was very good. Garlic eggplant was very good and tasty. Chicken with mint- the chicken bits were spicy. And the mint was not for me. I just brushed them off. Steamed burrata fish- the fish was very good, not dry. The only down side was, it was steamed with the fish scales on Salt and pepper shrimp- was good but the size of the shrimp was very disappointing Beef chow fun- was a bit dry, not much beef I highly recommend this restaurant. The food is good and tasty. read more

The service the experience the food! I brought 55 women to the colmar location and from beginning to end it was delightful. Their Peeking Duck and Branzino were out of this world. I'd like to give my praise for Yuan Lee their new manager for making this evening work for us. The Best Asian Restaurant Ever....!!! read more

I came here for my friend's baby shower, and the restaurant really came through! Their food was served hot and delicious. And the spread was very nicely presented. I regret not taking more photos, but to be fair, it was a social event. And yes, you can host larger social events here with ample planning and reservations ahead of time. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. We had a lot of children and elderly with us, and the space was accessible and well lit. Hope I can come back again one day to try some other dishes. read more

Mama Chang - Chinese Near Me - Hatfield Township, Pennsylvania

Stopped in for an early dinner/late lunch on Saturday. Plenty of tables open at the time. Ordered a large spread - sesame paste noodles, salt pepper shrimp, pork XLB, half peking duck, mongolian chicken, double cooked pork belly, combo fried rice. Probably skip the salt pepper shrimp next time. I was also expecting the sesame noodles to be cold and less spicy, but still delicious. Duck was solid. Would definitely like to come back with a larger party to try more dishes! This place is going to do so well. Not many/any restaurants in this area as authentic as this. Good variety of dishes for a wide range of palates. Service was very quick. You should probably come with a plan or idea of what you want before arriving. Restaurant seems like it's split between regular dining area and a dedicated dim sum dining area. They're still putting up decor but this space will certainly fill out. Plenty of parking out front read more

This is not your typical Chinese American restaurant. They serve some really authentic Chinese dishes, that you don't often see in Chinese restaurants, especially in this area. Be warned that the spice level is very spicy; they really should put some kind of warning next to certain dishes. We ordered delivery recently, and the food tasted good. My only complaint is that the dishes don't come with rice. Considering how pricey they are and that the seasoning leans a bit salty, rice is definitely needed. We had the tofu and beef pot dish, which had an overwhelming amount of peppercorn. It completely took over the dish, and we couldn't taste any of the individual components, making it very one-note. Overall, the food is good and worth trying. P.S. You can customize the items when ordering online; we just wanted to taste the dish as it is. read more

Certainly the best Chinese restaurant in our area. I have dined there three times. Lots of vegetarian and duck items. Only a few gluten free which I think they could improve upon by offering to use GF soy sauce for some dishes. Friendly staff. definitely best to make a reservation. We were there with a party of eight on Christmas Eve and they were turning people away at the door. Highly recommend eggplant and tofu and the duck hot and sour soup, but so many delicious choices. Order a variety--they are generous with packing up leftovers! read more

Mama Chang - Lobster special, GF seafood fried rice and so much more! - Chinese Near Me - Hatfield Township, Pennsylvania

Heard good things so we had to try for ourselves and loved it! We used to live in the city and frequented Chinatown but honestly, Mama Chang's was better than all of our old favorite spots. It was crowded on a Saturday night so we were glad that we made a reservation to avoid the wait. Food was AMAZING, especially anything made with pork belly and the scallion pancakes were super unique so worth a try! The staff were all beyond friendly. We brought our two year old along for dinner and everyone helped to keep her entertained. We will definitely be back! read more

Wanted to try and support this new place , called and placed the order for about $100. After I realized I ordered the same item twice I called back in 1-2 minutes of placing the order and asked them to take that one item off, he refused to do so and cancelled my whole order and hung up on me without any explanation. Well, we went to another place and spent our money elsewhere and it was delicious! Not a good attitude for Mama Chang, good luck! read more

Third time here and the third time we've had no complaints about the food. For the most part everything is served more family style here so stuff comes out as it's ready, not all at once read more

Positives: very attentive waitress; excellent pan-fried pork dumplings. Negatives: ordered lamb dish to be less spicy, but it was so spicy, we couldn't eat it. They did comp that dish, after we requested they do so. The black pepper onion scallion beef was very, very fatty. As others here have pondered, I also am surprised by the mainly positive reviews. Unfortunately, we won't return, given the low quality fatty chicken and beef, combined with their inability to alter spicing level. read more

We drove over an hour just to come here! As someone who went to college in Richmond and was a frequent eater at the original Peter Chang's, I had to try every new location they opened near me (Peter Chang KOP and Mama Chang). First off, this location is way bigger and therefore has a larger (and better, in my opinion) menu compared to Peter Chang KOP. They had the fried pork belly, which is a signature dish, and so many more entrée options. My sister absolutely loved the sweet and sour fish. She said it was 100% worth the drive. They are a little disorganized with the orders--we had to ask three times about a tofu dish we ordered. They forgot to send it to the kitchen twice, but they were busy, so maybe it was just a fluke. read more

What a great meal. Dan Dan noodles has us tingling, best duck I've had since being in Beijing. Don't skip the cucumber salad. So tasty. The Mongolian chicken was new to me and so tasty. Oh and the scallion bubble pancake = yum. read more

Food was great -- you can tell Chef Peter Chang's recipes are special. But being a new restaurant, it still needs some adjustments. The staff was working incredibly hard, and it was hard to relax watching them scramble. I'll definitely come back once things calm down a bit. read more

Authentic Chinese food! Excellent service and the food is top notch. This place is high-end, so don't expect to find any low-cost dishes.

Amazing food, great service, and a warm, inviting atmosphere. Every dish was full of flavor and felt homemade in the best way. Mama Chang never disappoints. read more

I for the life of me cant understand the ratings this place gets. Ok , we went on Christmas eve but it was not good on many different levels. Service was non existent, the won-ton soup was flavorless everything was brought out at one time except my son's meal which didnt come out until we we're almost ready to leave. Had to try it once but only once it will be. read more

Don't get fooled by the gimmicks. This place is awful. We arrived on time for our reservation. Before we even got seated, we were asked to put our food order in because the kitchen was going to be busy. Very odd, considering there were only 2 tables seated at the time. But we obliged and I ordered for our whole table while I still had my jacket on. I told the server that we wanted to order drinks. But before he could even comeback to take our order Appetizers were brought to the table. So apparently the kitchen wasn't backed up Food came out randomly. Whether your ready for it or not. Drinks would eventually come, one at a time over the next half hour. My pre-meal Manhattan was the last to come and they smoked it. Literally. Bartender gave me there signature old fashion instead. So, at least the food was good? Right? WRONG. Noodle and rice dishes are no better then mall food courts. And the gimmicky bubble pancake lacked any flavor and had the texture of cardboard. Very disappointing considering that Roti canai and Malaysian pancakes are one of my favorite things to eat. The sweet and sour bronzino is another gimmick. It looks great and takes time to score a fish like a checkerboard but the fish was rotten. I imagine it was laying dead, rotting away on a lukewarm table at the neighboring Assi Supermarket. It might have been a carp. One bite was the most anyone dared to try. Pork belly dish was fried pork skin. No belly. Another one bite dish. We had a couple chicken dishes and couldn't decide which one was worse. They hype up there Peking Duck and it was ok. Just ok. But it's hard to eat anything after a bite of their bronzino. It's not often that Yelp lets me down and I should know that reviews can be skewed when there are so few of them. But Damn! Will you fellow Yelpers sharpen your criticism. And if you can't tell the difference between fresh food and crappy food disguised with sweet sauces, then don't make a review. So the night ended with a pizza and cheesesteak order from a place that never disappoints. And doesn't add 20% gratuity for terrible service "Won't get fooled again". read more

We stopped by for a late lunch and the restaurant was still pretty busy which was a good sign. We ordered the fried dumplings, vegetable lomein, and vegetable chow fun. All were really fresh and delicious. The vegetables were very nicely cooked; I liked the al dente broccoli as that can often be overcooked. The flavors were good. I liked the deeper flavor of the lomein over the chow fun, but I can't turn down those wide noodles. Service was quick and very friendly. The portions, I thought, were very good! Definitely worth a visit if you are around Colmar. read more

Mama Chang is a welcome addition to the local Chinese restaurant scene. The ambiance is open and airy. We especially enjoyed the dim sum and 'Chinese tapas' (small plates) selections because it gave us an opportunity to try several dishes. We ordered the Wuhan sesame noodles, the Chengdu twice cooked pork belly, and the roast BBQ pork pastry. All were delicious, but some were spicier than expected - I wish the menu indicated how spicy some of the dishes are. Next time I will ask about spiciness before ordering. Service is prompt and professional - we look forward to returning and trying more dishes! read more

Reserved online and seated promptly. Service was attentive. Food was excellent! However the dining room was neither warm nor inviting. It was stark and very very bright. read more

We went there on a Thursday evening and had a wonderful meal with no complaints at all. The server, Miguel, was great and everyone one else who helped us. The food came out at a good pace and was piping hot and fresh. I saw others complain about the saltiness but we didn't find that and i rarely sue salt so too much and i notice. Everything was season perfectly and we will definitely be back. This is not your typical Chinese take out and they don't have a huge menu like those places. They have a solid menu with dished that can be made fresh and taste great sos west aside that idea of a takeout style place. read more

The food is amazing. The best Chinese restaurant I've ever dined . It's not at all like your typical local restaurant. The food is prepared with great care, the portions are generous and plenty to take home. The sweet and sour fish was amazing as was the Peking Duck . Matt, our waiter was so incredibly friendly, helpful and patient . My daughter and I brought her two young boys and the 7 year old loved everything!! The 5 year old loved the Tofu soup! The atmosphere is very relaxing and bright and extremely clean; just a wonderful experience. BTW: the menu has a red pepper next to any hot item. read more

My husband and I had high hopes for this restaurant after reading the reviews. Unfortunately, we did not have a very good dining experience. We were seated right away and ordered our appetizers which were duck eggrolls and pork belly. It was no longer than 5 minutes when the appetizers were on our table. We barely started to eat, and my entree came which was the birds nest. We finished the appetizers and were waiting for my husbands meal to come (10-15 minutes later). We were able to flag down our waiter, and he went to check on why my entree came out so quickly and his never did. He came back and told us that they ran out of what he ordered. Mind you it was only 6:30. They offered us a free dessert, but we declined. We packed my food up and left. Birds nest was very bland and tasteless. Needless to say, we were very disappointed. It was truly one of the worst dining experiences we have had for years, and we dine out every weekend. Will not be returning. read more

Ambiance was great from what was before "Great Wall" it was modern from outside with open glasses and see through. Parking lot seems to have many cars. I didn't want to come here for special family dinner because the Chinese menus are nothing special unless you go to Chinatown. Nonetheless my family decided to go with 15 people, they have big round open table that can accommodate us sitting together. However when ordered the pecking whole duck course menu with other stuffs to choose there weren't that many choices. They didn't even have Chinese veggie nor bochoy. Any how we ordered about 10 dishes with the whole pecking duck, bill came out $800 and we weren't that full. I think we spent 3 stars michellen restaurant price with mediocre Chinese restaurant. Never again even it's in my neighborhood. read more

we came on a sunday afternoon and decided on their AYCE lunch menu. the food quality was subpar, as was the way we were instructed to order. the food dishes came in massively varying sizes from a few bites to a share plate. that made it hard to determine how much to order, since our server was in charge of a large section and sometimes we'd finish the small dishes before being able to order more so chose to order more things at once. at the end our server told us that typically they charge for leftovers. which i guess is normal, but a lot of the dishes we didn't like, plus accidentally over ordering due to varying sizes of dishes, led to a bad experience. our server was nice though. read more

We wanted to try Mama Chang's after having come to Golden City many times previously. We are delightfully pleased with Mama Chang's menu, drinks, and spicy and flavorful food! The decor has also been refreshed and is really beautiful. We go to a lot of Asian restaurants in the area and Mama Chang's is our new favorite for authentic and deliciously spicy food. We tried sweet and sour fish, wonton soup, dry fried eggplant, soup dumplings and wontons in spicy oil--so good! We can't wait to try other options on the menu soon! read more

This restaurant was an unexpected delight. The food was excellent, the service as well.

Excellent dining experience! The food was amazing and hot right out of the kitchen. There were six of us and the round table was perfect for sharing plates and great conversation. Richie, our server, was very helpful with explaining certain dishes and was very patient with us as we asked many questions. We will definitely be returning again and again!! read more

I went there on a Saturday specifically so I can do the brunch menu. It allows AYC and I wanted to do that to try as many dishes as possible. Just like any place some were hit and miss for me but all were well prepared and had a nice ratio of vegetables to protein to sauce. A couple items though... I do NOT say this often were AMAZING. Their Kung Pao chicken. WOW! The sauce / seasoning was exactly on point. Not too spicy (I am a spice wimp). The chicken was cooked perfectly. The vegetables were perfect sized and cooked. By far the best Kung Pao I have ever had. All the things together added up to make this just about perfect. Another amazing dish was the Beef Chow Fen. The beef was velveting. The flavors just all came together. I am the first to admit I like Americanized Chinese food... So that may explain some of the other dishes that I disliked. The BBQ pork Bao was way too sweet for me. Really not a fan. None of their Bao offerings hit the spot or me. I didn't like their Bao itself. Hard to describe but too bread like for me. Dim Sum offerings too...they were good...all solid but nothing wowed me. The Shrimp and Chive were good...but not amazing. And although Chinese deserts, in my experience, are not really known for deserts...none of desert offerings wowed me either. The egg custard was ok...nothing amazing but ok.. I do love egg custard, but it was a little bland and the pastry was ok...but not really the browned butter rich that could have elevated it. Service was great. The waiter was awesome. It is hard to find a "go to"... The one you know if you order X you will have a great meal. I found that in Mama Chang. There were some offerings not on their AYC menu that I can't wait to try. A little more expensive but well worth it for quality ingredients and just superb execution. I will be back! read more

Food was greasy and the waitstaff served us wrong dishes. Turned out to be something we didn't order and no one could identify it. With meat dishes meat was hard to find. Service was bizarre. There were at least 6 people that served us rapidly at different times. First dish came out and no one (even the server) knew what it was. dishes were sporadically thrown on our table at fast speed by various waitstaff. Our main server was really nice and the server even said the place was crazy. Dining was rushed and frenetic. Beware of the $20 uncorking fee for wine- we didn't open our bottle as it wasn't worth the fee. when we questioned the corkage fee. we were told that was the corking fee in the Washington DC so they were charging here. Query what the fee would have been for 2 bottles. Ambiance was ok- don't sit on the left- the lighting was intense and also had red spotlights. Better to sit on the right side. oh and no tea, no rice and no fortune cookie read more
