    General Tsao's Chicken and shrimp fried rice
    Jennifer P.

    Decent Chinese food. I will be back here. I offer only 3 stars for two reasons: the restaurant itself is a nightmare, and unless you are a foodie like me, you would faint looking at how run down the interior is. Complete with a child's high chair covered in aged filth -- dried liquids of an unknown origin. Two large fish tanks house I don't know what kinds of fish, are shoved to the side of the dining area like two cars after an accident or during a traffic jam. I can't decide. My inner Anthony Bourdain loves this. Nothing better than a shack turning out tasty food at a reasonable price! Seriously, the food is legit. I had the General Tsao's Chicken with shrimp fried rice for an upgrade charge of like a $1.85 or so. Otherwise the chicken just comes with white rice and that's boring. I wish they had put chop sticks in with my order but I didn't ask. I own plenty so it isn't an issue. As soon as I got home, I was relaxing on the couch, feeding myself like any diva would, in a silk robe, with my extra-long bamboo chop sticks. Straight out of the box! My second reason for taking a star away would be for the staff. The girl who helped me was polite, but she wasn't big on up selling me on food or small talk. I barely found the restaurant. There is either no sign, or I just didn't see it painted on the door. The next time I feel like binge eating, I'm coming here.

    So like a lot of people finding a good Chinese restaurant it's kinda difficult, either does not taste good or the quality is bad. I live in old Irving park so sometimes I go to do grocery at Tony's on Elston. I always seen this restaurant on the way to Tony's but never wanted to go because it look very old from the outside. One day my husband and I were craving Chinese so we looked in yelp and for my surprise wing Chong had good reviews and even 4 stars . Still I was not sure to eat there but decided to order lunch specials to give a try. I saw a post with the prices here but I couldn't believe they were right still since the it was from 2 years ago. I ordered a general chicken Tso and my hubby order shrimp and lobster sauce. When we walked in I was very insecure still, restaurant look very... very... old but what to do, we already order. The cashier was very nice and had our food ready, we paid and left home. When I opened the bag I couldn't believe the amount of food for the price, it was so much that even 2 people can ea from One and it was less than 5 bucks. We began eating and noticed that everything tasted so good to the point that we ate the whole thing. I most say that I was very surprised with the whole experience, you definitely can't judge a book by the cover, this Chinese restaurant it's a hidden gem . Ever since that day we been coming to this place everything we fell either hungry or craving for Chinese food, it's absolutely delicious.

Thankfully, that wasn't the case--I enjoyed the meal overall, even if it wasn't a "wow, this is the best meal ever" experience. The biggest surprise for me was the dried chili chicken. I almost didn't order it because so many reviews said it was overly salty and spicy. We asked for less salt, and they were happy to accommodate. I actually thought the spice level was very manageable, and it ended up being one of my favorite dishes. The orange chicken was another pleasant surprise. I expected it to be a basic, Americanized option, but it was delicious and ended up being one of my favorites of the meal. My friends really enjoyed the dan dan noodles, which seem to be one of their signature dishes. Personally, I thought they were good but not particularly memorable compared to everything else. The mango shrimp was tasty as well, but it wasn't something I'd consider a must-order on a return visit. Service was great. The waiter was friendly, accommodated our request for less salt, and we were seated immediately. We arrived about 10 minutes before opening on a weekday to line up, and that seemed to work well. overall a great experience!

It was a very quaint but contemporarily designed space with neutral tones. The staff was very friendly, and we were seated immediately having beat the work crowd. For drinks, I had the Take It Easy, and my friend had the Purple Paradise. I usually go straight for wine but opted for a mixed drink this time. Both of our drinks were great choices. For dinner, we each tried something different and opted for the spring rolls appetizer, the King Mushroom Chicken, Singapore Vermicelli Noodle and Spicy Chili Shrimp with a side of fried rice. Everyone loved their meals. They were absolutely delicious! I had the vermicelli dish, and I couldn't have asked for a better mix of ingredients. It was a little spicy but not too much. The service was great, and our server made solid recommendations across the board. There were many dishes to try, and if I lived in Chicago, this is definitely a place I'd return again.

We ordered like the PERFECT amount of food and best variety. Roast duck: I honestly don't know if I've ever had duck before, but I'm a duck believer now. The skin on theirs was the perfect crispy shatter texture and the duck was sooooo juicy! I don't know why I was always so worried about it being gamey. They give you fluffy steamed bao buns, a sauce, and scallions on the side as well as duck fried rice! Turnip cake: Obviously a must any time I come to dim sum. I've never seen turnip in any other form than this. Japanese salt & pepper tofu: My FAVORITE dish ever. Any fried salt & pepper tofu always makes me happy. They use a creamy egg-like tofu and the outside is lightly crispy with amazing aromatics stir fried in. Steamed white rice on the side is perfect with this.

Great food, great service, and a place I'm excited to come back to!

    This is a tough one. Not happy at all. With all of the wonderful legendary Chinese places closing…read moreover the past few years (Kow Kow, Hong Min, Pekin House, and even the best egg rolls at Mee Mah), Sun Wah has been solid over the years- their whole duck is legendary and incredible. BUT, as wonderful as the food is, the last 5 visits have been dreadful. The angry waitresses are part of the deal, but when we're spending a few hundred bucks on dinner, enough is enough. Asking for extra sauce and being told NO- asking for extra bao wrappers and being told NO, asking for extra daikon for the duck when we're given a half full dish in the first place in unacceptable. And like I said, that's part of the deal. And the food is so good that you put up with it. But what happened last week was the last straw. We ordered egg rolls, 2 large dumpling soups, pot stickers, a whole duck, medium ribs, sweet and sour chicken, and for an appetizer, a medium BBQ pork. When the server brought the pork, first, it was cold. I guess that's also the deal. Sometimes it's hot, sometimes totally cold. But this time, and I'm not exaggerating, more than half of the order was pure white fat. Not fatty pork, white solid fat. we tried chewing git to see if there was any meat, but no. So, I finally got the servers attention and showed her. She looked at it, and then walked away. I assumed she was going to bring us a new order. Instead, the owner walked over. I showed her the 2 plates- 1 plate with half of the solid white fat, and the other plate with chewed up fat pieces. Instead of apologizing and bringing over a new order, she said "sometimes the pigs we get are very fatty". So I replied something like "sure I get that, but you can't serve this to customers" and " can you please bring us a new order of actual pork and not just a plate of fat"??? and she then looks down at both plates and says "you already ate it so we can't do anything. I tell her that, no, I didn't eat anything- you can see a plate with chewed up and spit out fat, but she literally WALKS AWAY. So then of course we wait for her to bring a new order over, but that never happens. And we're loyal customers for many many years, and she knows us. This extreme lack of care for your longtime customers is nauseating. Like I said, we've put up with it for years because we love the food (as well as putting up with the many health code violations over the years), but after this huge fuck you from the owner over a few bucks worth of pork? We're done. And our friends are done. This rude pathetic refusal to admit that you're serving inedible food and take care of your loyal customers with a few dollars in pork will now cost you THOUSANDS of dollars every year, because we have now told 20 of our friends to stop going, and they all agreed with us. Bad move Momma SunWah..........

The manager and the food runner were nice when we mentioned it, but our actual server was a disaster. When we tried the Goat Noodles, all we could taste was cumin. It was so overwhelming that it covered up everything else. We couldn't even tell if there was actually any goat shoulder in there. When we told our waiter, she couldn't care less. She got totally defensive, wouldn't even listen to us, and just said, "Oh, I told you when you ordered that the dish is cumin forward" and walked away. It got worse when the bill came. She was holding on to the payment machine so hard and almost yanked it right out of my friend's hand. She was staring at it to see what we were tipping. It was so awkward and incredibly rude.
