" Honestly, I was skeptical after reading some lackluster reviews but decided to visit anyway. I must say, I found their seafood dishes to be quite fresh. However, the mu-shu pork I ordered was not my favorite due to the overuse of sauce. The service was excellent, though! I might return to try something else. " (*Curated Review*)

" My husband and I decided to try Ching Yen last weekend, and we were really pleased! The ambiance was warm and inviting. The food was stunning! The sweet and sour chicken was crispy and well-made, full of flavor. The service was friendly, but they seemed a bit rushed. Overall, a delightful dinner and I would recommend it. " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally made it to Ching Yen after hearing so much about it, and it did not let me down. The crab rangoon was delightful, crispy, and cheesy!

" Ching Yen is a hidden treasure! The ambiance took me back to my childhood family dinners. The owner is delightful and remembers regulars' names! Their egg drop soup is the best I've ever had. I can’t recommend it enough. It truly feels like home here. " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious food and wonderful service at Ching Yen! The owner is a sweetheart and made us feel like VIPs. I got the crab rangoon as an appetizer, and they were crispy and delicious. My main dish was the Kung Pao chicken, and the flavor was out of this world. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ching Yen offers a unique blend of authentic recipes with traditional touches. The service was prompt and amiable. The orange chicken was delightful, but I felt that the prices were a bit high for the portion sizes. Nevertheless, the experience was pleasant, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for good Chinese food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Pleasantly surprised by Ching Yen! I tried their hot and sour soup and it was delectable. The flavors were just right—not too spicy but enough to make you want more. The service was exceptional; the staff is very accommodating and gave wonderful recommendations. I can’t wait to try their chow mein next time! " (*Curated Review*)
