If you're looking for outstanding Asian food, this place is absolutely worth seeking out. The…read morelocation is a little tucked away, but the food more than makes up for it. The portions are incredibly generous, and every dish we tried was delicious. The drunken noodles were packed with flavor, the fried rice was perfectly cooked, the Tso's chicken was excellent, and the steamed fish was fresh and beautifully prepared. The highlight of the meal was the spectacular tableside Flambé dessert--it was both delicious and a fun experience. The service was exceptional. Our waitress was incredibly sweet, attentive, and made sure we were well taken care of throughout the meal. The owners were also warm and welcoming, adding to the wonderful dining experience. And don't skip the beer--it was fantastic! Great food, generous portions, outstanding hospitality, and excellent value. We'll definitely be back.

I saw this place named on some guy's list of best restaurants in NOVA. We only ordered 4 dishes so…read moreI can't speak for the rest of the menu. But what we did get was pretty darn good (if a bit pricey)! The style is much more authentic, so if you're looking for something like Hunan Cafe (Greenbriar), or that NOVA institution China King, this is different. Is it better? For the most part, yes. (But I still crave that Americanized sweet, spicy, glazey brown sauce that comes in slight variations in so many dishes). I had the hot and sour soup, Szechuan spicy fried eggplant sticks, Taiwanese rice noodles with fried tofu, and the Chengdu twice cooked pork. Everything was excellent, except....the hot and sour soup. Honestly, Hunan Cafe and China King beat the pants off this place's hot and sour soup. Here, it was a bit too sweet. It had some red chilies in it, but I could not detect much white pepper. And it's a vegetarian version, so no small bits of chicken or pork. I'd skip this the next time I order from here. But the other dishes... amazing! The noodles were light-tasting but still delicious. The eggplant was garnished with cilantro, garlic, salt, and red chili sauce. The twice cooked pork was sauteed with sliced leeks and the same red chili sauce. I think that's the fresh, zingy, spice flavor profile I like that can't be found at Americanized Chinese restaurants. Sure, China King has its place and I'll still go back there when I'm close (RIP China King Fair Lakes and Herndon). And admittedly, I go to that awful Panda chain occasionally because I never learn. The unfortunate thing is, I'll more likely go to these places than Cheng's because of the price. The pork dish was $21 and the noodle dish was $19. My total bill came to $60 before tax and tip. If I need to stuff my face with a Chinese umami bomb fast, I'm probably going to the other places for $15-30. I do want to try the rest of the menu at Cheng's, but it's going to be a drawn-out process for the sake of my wallet. I'd be remiss if I didn't include a comment from my dining partner. She compared the quality and taste of the food at Cheng's to Peter Chang's (either Peter Chang's-Herndon, or Mama Chang Fairfax). A high compliment. But she said the value is better at those places' AYCE options than what we got at Cheng's, and I agree. If you've been to none of these places, you have to try them all at least once.

BLUF: The food is always hot & fresh. Decent quality of meat. Not too greasy. It's tasty in a local…read morejoint kinda way but the flavors certainly don't leave lasting impressions. Satisfies the Chinese food cravings for sure. Warm & welcoming atmosphere...not so much. I don't want to fault one of my go-to Chinese food joints because the economy sucks. Everyone & everything has been affected during these chaotic & unreliable times. Small biz restaurants gotta save where they can just like everyone else to stay alive. I look forward to the day when this restaurant can go back to good-sized portions with a satisfying amount of meat & vegetables rather than having to really scale down. Been coming here for years and it's still in the rotation despite the downgrade in value currently. Being able to count the number of meat pieces on one hand and the number of veggies on the other is disheartening. A container filled with steamed rice & sauce instead of meat & veggies is disappointing and expensive. I've never found Wong Kok to fall into the category of "greasy Chinese food." That's a definite plus. While the lunch specials are generally still an ok deal during this horrible economy, be prepared to spend and not receive quite the return you once were used to getting from your fav Chinese food joint. Even the fortune cookies have shrunk about 20% in size! Worth the drive? Yes, because the food has always been hot & fresh and tastes pretty good. The meat quality remains decent- not fatty, gristly, or just scraps. And, yes, because I want to keep my local Chinese food go-to in biz.

I love this place.

Never late. And they also send you a picture of your food once it is delivered (you must be close enough and you must order more than their requirement so they can deliver). But I love this place I'm so glad to be back HAHA The only thing negative I would say is one time I tried to order a soup over the phone so it could be ready when I got there since I was going to pick up instead of ask them to deliver and the man who answered the phone was like "You don't need to order this over the phone it's already ready for you" in like a rude way but hey we all have our days and he's right because like I said they're never late and they're always prepared. LOVE THIS PLACE if I could give 10 stars I would!

I open the door and immediately realize, this ain't going to be cheap. The interior looks upscale, and not a hole in the wall like I had incorrectly thought all along. I asked how long a General Tsos order would take to make. The receptionist told me 10 minutes or less. So I place the order and pay $20 after tax. The food was sweet with a noticeable kick of red pepper. I did notice the pan-Asian menu... and maybe this is a good option for a nice dinner for a special occasion, but I don't think I'll be able to afford this place as my go to Chinese take out joint.

I was a bit concerned about the 1-2 star rating at first, but am glad that gave it a try. Both the noodles and seafood combo tasted like home cooked meals, better than your average mall Chinese food.

Noodles were a wee bit too tender. I prefer the noodles to have a little bit of a bite and spring. Not sure if it was overcooked or if it was just because it was a take-out order and sat in a container too long. As a result the noodles were a little bit clumpy. Triple Delight - Hard Pass!!! The first thing that hit me was the taste and smell. It was very off-putting. It was due to the bamboo shoots. IMHO it ruined the taste for the whole dish. I'll have to ask them to leave the bamboo shoots out next time. General Tzo's Chicken - A-Okay. Chicken chunks were a little dry, and fried batter wasn't as crispy as I'd like, bit otherwise okay.
