Hung Sue Tofu
Steve A.

Every one of these little Chinese takeouts looks the same almost. It's said by many the food looks and tastes the same too, but I think it's not always the case. #1 Chop Suey apparently lays claim to being the best chop Suey restaurant in Oak Park. For it sounding funny it may actually be true since there may not be another one around here. There's Chinese restaurants but not other chop suey restaurants specifically. Came in to get lunch It wasn't that busy but it was kind of slow because there's usually only a couple of people working here. This is now pretty much only a takeout. For sure it's one of the less attractive restaurants in town, only a couple tables inside. These are used just for keeping supplies on. It's about $10 for an entree. The Hung Sue Tofu is one of the less common entrees at these small Chinese restaurants. Has a sticky sweet sauce it's tossed it. There's a good variety of the usual vegetables like bamboo, carrots, and more. Get it for takeout because that's the only way to get it. It's not a good place to eat inside anyway because it's small and the customers in line are annoying and loud. The food doesn't look as good as it tastes.

The food is great. And service is also. It's a small place so it's good for a quick lunch. But I pick up and go.

Decent Chinese food for the price, but it's a little on the greasy side. Prompt delivery and a great selection.

I've been going to New Star Restaurant for over 40 years! Growing up, my parents and I had…read morecountless Chinese food takeout orders from here, and as I got older, I continued the tradition with my own family. Even after moving 25 miles away, I still make my way back. Now I'm coming here for lunch with my mom, my daughter, and my grandkid. At this point, New Star has officially become a generational restaurant for our family! Over all these years, the service, food, and atmosphere have always been pleasant and welcoming. There's something special about being able to return to a restaurant you've enjoyed since childhood and now share it with the next generations of your family. I haven't tried the hibachi yet, but I've heard great things about it, so that's definitely on my list for a future visit. After more than four decades of memories, meals, and family visits, New Star continues to be a special place for us.

This place is more like 4.5 stars. We always wanted to try this place so slid in to see what was…read morecracking! They have Chinese, Thai & Japanese cuisine along with hibachi service. We were there for some Chinese food. They give you complimentary hot tea when you sit down. The service was ok at best. Nice inside not very big but it's clean and has some cozy booth type seats along with open table seating. We ordered some Jumbo shrimp fried rice, Singapore noodles, pad se eew and a sampler appetizer platter. The appetizer platter came with 2 egg rolls, 2 dumplings, 2 bbq ribs, 2 shrimp toast, 2 crab Rangoons & 2 fried shrimp. The egg rolls were fresh and full of meat!! Very crispy and delicious! 7/10 I didn't have the dumplings I don't care for them myself but my wife likes them she gave them a 6.7/0 she said she's had better. The Ribs had a nice bite and flavor to them just a tad tough for me. 6/10 The shrimp toast was my favorite of the appetizers the were crispy not greasy and the shrimp was definitely there. I enjoyed the flavor of them. 8/10 The crab Rangoon however were a disappointment to me. They were definitely missing the green onion and crab! lol. Mostly cream cheese but fried well 4/10. The fried shrimp were ok. Average 5/10 They give you a lot of food for your money! As all the dishes had a great amount of protein in them! They don't skimp on the meat at all. The jumbo shrimp fried rice a great flavor and nice texture. You can taste smokiness in it. 7.5/10 The Singapore Noodles was loaded with shrimp, chicken and bbq pork, egg and veggies. It had a kick to it from the curry very flavorful and the texture of the noodles were spot on! 7.5/10 the pad se eew was also loaded with beef! (You have the option of protein) the beef was very tender, the sauce had a nice spice level and the noodles were perfectly cooked. 8/10 all in all i would definitely recommend checking them out! My bill was a little over $63 and well worth it. I'm definitely returning to them. Remember ALL reviews are SUBJECTIVE

Disappointing. Thank goodness a friend and I split the soup dumpling appetizer and main noodle…read moreentree so it was minimal cost! Service was prompt and attentive, they were not packed but still seemed busy enough. This is worth the 1 star, for the efforts of the floor staff. Soup dumplings outer layer was thick and mushy - possibly kept on the steamer all shift instead of fresh-steamed? - but the small sip of soup and the meat morsel inside were fine. The noodles flavor and texture was nothing like what we expect from similar eateries in Chinatown. The texture of the meat was okay, but the vegetables were literally two halves of a single bulb of bok choy. So skimpy. And the noodles were nothing special at all, they literally seemed like spaghetti noodles and did nothing to make the dish more visually appealing. The kitchen got the level of spice right, but I had to add the rest of the dumpling dipping sauce to my portion for taste, and we didn't even finish the dish between two diners, who are normally quite big eaters. The shumai was unrecognizable as such -- a mini chunk of shrimp - not ground, not mixed with any visible spices - in a doughy wrap shaped to look like a usual cylindrical shumai - but a single piece was nearly entirely this mushy dough, and the plate was immediately sent back to the kitchen. No one, not the chef nor the manager came by to ask what the problem was, and only part of the cost of the item was taken off, even though nearly the entire portion was sent back minus one piece, which had been roughly dissected, the parts of which were forlornly sitting on my friend's plate, uneaten. The rice we received was served in uneven portions and even worse it was slightly undercooked, with a very small but noticeable hard bit in the grains. I stopped eating the rice because I wasn't certain if my stomach would become upset. Will not return and cannot recommend. Quite disappointed our friends picked this place.

I love Tony's for authentic Chinese food in Chicago. I worked at a school nearby and decided to…read morestop in for a quick lunch. I've had the chicken in black pepper sauce, egg drop soup, egg fried rice, and the egg rolls. I would come here just for the egg rolls, hands down. Little known fact, but Chicago's egg rolls usually have a smidge of peanut butter in them as a binder, and for me this is what sets them apart from the rest of the US. Tony's egg rolls are the perfect flavor and consistency, and are the perfect embodiment of the Chicago Chinese Eggroll. The egg drop soup is some of the best I've ever had. Most other egg drop soups that I've tried have a thick broth with egg ribboned into it. Tony's broth is thin, but very flavorful and the eggs in the soup are SO fluffy! They even put some chicken in it as well. I was a little put-off by the visual difference, but once I tried it I was sold! The black pepper chicken was also great with the perfect amount of spice and a great depth of flavor. I usually order ahead on their website, and they are always ready once I arrive. I've never had an issue finding parking on Grand to run in and grab my food. They take cash and card, and the staff is always sweet.

Her attitude came across as extremely rude and dismissive. The restaurant really needs better customer service and additional staff who are attentive, respectful, and willing to assist customers.
