" What a delightful surprise Chef Chen turned out to be! My family and I have always been on the lookout for authentic Chinese food and this place exceeded our expectations. The Spring Rolls were so crispy, and the dumplings were incredibly juicy. The portions were more than fair for the price. The atmosphere is relaxed and family-friendly, making it a great spot for dinner. Highly recommend this restaurant for your next family outing! " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled across Chef Chen and decided to give it a shot, and I’m so glad I did! The Walnut Chicken was phenomenal. It's not overly sweet or greasy, just perfectly balanced. Coupled with incredible service and clean surroundings, I couldn't ask for a better dining experience. I give it five stars without a doubt! " (*Curated Review*)

" Chef Chen has stolen my heart with their outstanding customer service and delicious food! The flavor combinations of their dishes are lovely and incredibly satisfying. The ambiance was super lively! I plan on visiting again soon, especially after hearing that they have lunch specials! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been coming to Chef Chen for years now, and it continues to impress me. The food is exceptionally fresh, especially the Kung Pao Shrimp, which is my absolute favorite! The ambiance is quite family-friendly, though parking can sometimes be a hassle during peak hours. No matter, the food truly makes up for it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Chef Chen had mixed results on my last visit. We had some great dishes like the Beef and Broccoli, which was flavorful and tender but the Egg Rolls fell short and were noticeably greasy. Overall, though, I would say it's a good place with great service but a few hits and misses for the menu items. " (*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*)
