" While I enjoyed some items, overall, the experience was just okay. The food was good but I’ve certainly had better at other places. I’d rate it solidly average and might revisit if in the area but wouldn’t go out of my way. The service was polite but the atmosphere could use some warmth. " (*Curated Review*)

" Tried Chef Chen for the first time today and was impressed! The BBQ Pork was superb, and my husband loved the Chicken Lo Mein. The service was incredibly prompt, and they made us feel welcomed from the moment we walked in. I could absolutely see myself coming back to try more of the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I came here with a group of friends and we all left saying we would come back! The portions were large, easily enough for sharing. My favorite turn was the Kung Pao Chicken - it had just the right amount of spice and really packed a punch! The service was also pretty impressive, just the right balance between attentive and not intrusive. Can't wait to come again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" As a frequent diner at Chef Chen, I can assure you that they never fail to impress. The food is always fresh, and they pride themselves on authenticity which is a breath of fresh air compared to other restaurants. I usually opt for the Orange Chicken, which is perfectly crispy and full of flavor. Service is usually quick but when busy, it may lag a bit. All in all, Chef Chen is my top choice for Chinese food around here! " (*Curated Review*)

" During my recent visit to Chef Chen for my birthday dinner, I was overwhelmed by the warm welcome from the staff. They were fantastic! The food, however, was the highlight of the night. I ordered the BBQ Pork Fried Rice and the Salt and Pepper Squid. Both dishes were bursting with flavor and freshness that I typically expect from authentic Chinese cuisine. I also appreciated that the portions were big enough for everyone to share. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an outstanding Chinese dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I found the food at Chef Chen to be generally very tasty! The service was also pleasant, though at times they seemed a little rushed. My only complaint is that the seating area felt somewhat cluttered which diminished the overall atmosphere. Nevertheless, the portions were generous and food was well cooked. I probably will come back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a nice lunch there the other day and was grateful for their quick service during busy hours. The food was steaming hot and good—can’t go wrong with their Dumplings and Fried Rice! The proportions were generous too. Will keep this place in frequent rotation for lunches! " (*Curated Review*)
