Born and raised in this neighborhood. This place has been a landmark in the community. Chicken wings and Mumbo sauce from BIG CHINA!

This is how much shrimp came in the shrimp egg roll thats pretty ridiculous

Trash shrimp egg rolls dont order em tore open my second one to find a single morsel of a piece of shrimp the cabbage was good though thats all there was in it

Don't order the Mongolian shrimp. You pay $10 for a quart of onion with about 8-10 shrimp ...

See all

Can barely even be called mediocre and the other customers often harass us when we come in. Don't bother.

Chili Wok Alexandria - Black Bean Sauce with Beef

Chili Wok Alexandria

(85 reviews)

$$

I rate restaurants within their category and concept. I am not comparing a local Chinese restaurant…read moreto a Michelin star dining experience. If a place delivers strong execution, quality flavors, and exceeds expectations for what it is trying to be, that earns a top rating from me. Chili Wok did exactly that. We recently visited Alexandria and had an excellent meal from start to finish. Everything we ordered was flavorful, well prepared, and arrived tasting fresh and intentional. The soup dumplings were a standout. The wrappers held together nicely, the filling was savory and juicy, and each bite had that satisfying burst of broth you hope for when ordering them. The fried rice was also very well done. It had great wok flavor, proper texture, and did not feel greasy or heavy, which is where many places miss the mark. The sweet and sour ribs were another highlight. They had a great balance of sweetness and tang, with tender meat and enough texture to keep them interesting. A dish that can sometimes feel one note was handled really well here. Beyond the food, the overall experience was strong. When every dish lands and nothing disappoints, that says a lot about the consistency of the kitchen. Overall, Chili Wok delivered exactly what I hope for in this category: flavorful food, solid technique, and an enjoyable dining experience. Easy 5 stars, and I would gladly return.

This might be my new go-to spot for Chinese takeout. It's a small, casual shop with a few tables…read morefor dining in, or you can call ahead/order online for takeout. I was in the Del Ray area and decided to give it a try, and I'm glad I did. On the drive home, the aroma of the Ganghood chicken filled the car and had me eager to dig in. Even after about a 20-minute drive, the chicken was still tender with a light crisp. The seasoning was spot on, with the perfect balance of heat and that signature Szechuan peppercorn numbness. The only downside was that the rice portion was a bit small. The dan dan noodles were also very good--well coated in sauce and mixed nicely with the minced pork. Service was quick, the staff was friendly, and the prices were very reasonable. If you're a fan of spicy Chinese food or dishes with a numbing peppercorn kick, this place is definitely worth trying. I'd happily come back again.

Han Palace - Dim sum time

Woodley Park

Han Palace is hands down one of my favorite restaurants in DC, and there are two main reasons why:…read morethe portions and the drinks. First, the food portions here are astronomical. I ordered the Singapore noodles, which were packed with flavor and loaded with beef, chicken, and shrimp. The portion was so big that it honestly could be split between two people. I barely put a dent in it while I was there and ended up taking most of it home and eating off it for a while afterward. But the real showstopper is the bottomless drinks. For $18, you get bottomless Mai Tais, lemon drops, and mimosas, and the best part is they do it all day, not just during brunch hours. You can pull up at 7 p.m., get dinner, and still do bottomless drinks, which is something you don't see very often. Between the massive portions, the flavor, and the all-day bottomless option, Han Palace is an easy five out of five for me. If you're in DC and haven't been here yet, this is a must-go spot.

Han Palace Woodley Park is a convenient location for the surrounding area since most traditional…read moreChinese restaurants are near downtown DC or elsewhere. This is a much needed addition to the Connecticut Ave corridor which lacks authentic Chinese restaurants and especially Dim Sum (brunch small plates). I hope that there are more choices like this in the near future for this surrounding area which lacks good traditional Chinese restaurants. The parking can be daunting since it still is in DC, might have a bit of a walk but that is everywhere in DC. The food was fast and had some unique choices that are not on a standard menu.
