Best Chinese restaurant in Bend. Great food, plenty of it, good prices, good service. What more to say?

Great Chinese food! We had the mothers chicken with pan fried noodles and it was delicious!!! Portions are HUGE so split it! Service was also very good! read more

Pretty darn good Chinese food and the portions were HUGE! The chicken fried rice was outstanding and the King Pao was great too.

Extremely disappointed the Chan's in Redmond is awful the rice is over cooked they use way to much cornstarch on their meat I will never go back the waitress is trashy and rude read more

Chan's is very clean and pulchritudinous looking, staff is friendly and food looks and taste astounding .A great place for a meal.

Have eaten a few times here since the rebuild. In the past year, the quality of the food has slowly declined. A Couple nights ago, my date and I had dinner there. Her food was okay. Mine was inedible. "Greasy/Slimy" is the best way to describe it. So I ordered another entree from the menu. It was better. Not great, but at least one could eat it. What really irked me, was the treatment. Was 1/2 hour before closing, and the lady that manages the front kept instructing the poor waitress to encourage us to leave, by bringing take out boxes and asking if she could box up our meal for us - my date was about 1/2 way through hers and I just got my new entree just 5 minutes before. Then, I get a bill. Not itemized at all. Just a total. I asked for an itemized receipt. The manager lady at first claimed she couldn't do it and didn't understand english. I pressed the issue and you guessed it - she charged me for the food that was disgusting/horrible/belonged in a landfill. I told her I didn't feel that I should have to pay for the food that was unfit to eat. She got very aggressive and argumentative with me, saying "You Order Food - You Pay! - No Refund!" So, rather than continue to argue with someone who will not budge one bit, I paid the bill. This will be the last time you will see my hard-earned, small business owner money! I made sure to tip the poor waitress (who was visibly embarrassed) 20 percent and left. My message to this business? "You Cook Poor Food - You Keep your Poor food!" Maybe when they get under water again, in the business end of things, they will burn the place down again...... In the meantime - try actually cleaning the place - it wasn't exactly the picture of cleanliness, either. read more

Well what is there to say? We have been on the hunt for a great Chinese restaurant in Bend. We stopped in after we saw a full parking lot. We have all been sick and we're really craving traditional wonton soup. I don't know why I can't seem to find this? We went into the restaurant. It seemed clean and well organized. I ordered two wonton soups and Kung pao chicken. The soups were 8.50 each. Expensive but worth it after we have been sick and that's what we were craving. The take out order took about 10 minutes. We got home and the disappointment started as soon as we opened the bags. Instead of wontons in broth the soups were packed with vegetables. Big chucks that almost looked like leftovers. After we finally dig out all of the filler we found two more or three wontons. That was a lot of work to get to what the soup is called! The wonton looked good, I bit into it, to my disgust it was filled with shrimp!! Not that I don't like shrimp but not in my wontons. Nasty! The Kung Pao chicken wasn't much better. The chicken wasn't firm and was very slippery. Not the kind of consistency you want in Chinese food. Needless to say it was all thrown out. Defiantly won't be heading back. read more

I'll give em 5 stars!! Don't get too excited it's pretty much the traditional Chinese American food. Every town has them. Chans does it right. Just went there with my daughter and she loved there fried rice. We ordered there pepper chicken it was good very flavorful and a big portion. Really like the garlic taste and also had cilantro in it. It was all white chicken. Also ordered some mothers chicken. It was deep fried with a sweet spicy sause. No very spicy but it turned out good. It was nice to have some of each. This place isn't gourmet so don't get your expectations up high. It's good for what you pay for. I say the best American Chinese in Bend. I haven't found any authentic Chinese yet here but for what it is I was quite happy. read more

Listen to the recent reviews! We went in with a large group of 14. Seated promptly, probably the best thing about the place was the hot tea. Soup was lit good, but we were hungry and ate it. I ordered the "house special" sizzling hot plate with the waitresses recommendation. It came out in a regular plate, no sizzle to be found. I asked if it was the right dish, and a 'hot plate' was brought out to our table and I was asked if I wanted my meal transferred into it. My meal was a slimy mix of tepid temperature chewy meats and vegetables. There were two orders of hot and sour chicken (safe bet right?) but no, the chicken came out lukewarm. Both entrees. When you take a bite you get a greasy, occasionally coldish bite. Noodles were slimy. No flavor. Just gross. We left most of our food uneaten, I didn't even make the kids eat their food. Stopped by Trader Joe's on our way home to Portland and got some snacks to eat since we were still hungry. Waste of $$$. Maybe we are spoiled by decent Chinese food in Portland, but I was extremely disappointed. Servers were friendly but after she kept asking how the food was, I finally told her about the cold chicken and she just walked away. No response. read more

Chan's is consistent, fresh, fast and plentiful Chinese food....in Bend. We love to hit it when we have a busy few days ahead of us, so we can eat leftovers for days. And I'm a bit of a 'restaurant canary'....if preparation is substandard, I will get ill. Chan's doesn't use MSG and I've never had a bad reaction to their food, eat-in OR call-ahead-pick-up-take-out. Not something I can say of all Chinese restaurants, for sure. Great place to take college boys who are bottomless pits, too. Perfectly addicted to Kung Pao chicken! read more

I am very very very picky about my Chinese food. I just moved here about a year and a half ago and just about gave up eating anymore Chinese food when a friend of mine told me to go check out Chan's. Needless to say I loved it!!!! The food was really good so moist and succulent. The sweet and sour sauce was divine and usually what I am most picky about. My last Chinese restaurant gave me my own item on the menu and called me her favorite customer that was how much I ate there. Needless to say I will be a regular from now on at Chan's.

Good food and I greatly appreciate the wide variety of Gluten free dishes they will make. Im a celiac and never have problem here.

Best Chinese food in town! Great service, friendly staff, and restaurant looks great after the remodel!

Should have read the reviews before going to eat at Chans absolutely NO flavor, very bland. There are so many other excellent Chinese Restaurants in town!! It takes a lot for me to write a review... read more

Generous servings, ready when you arrive for take out. Reasonably priced, and they keep record of past orders so your can repeat an order quickly with a phone call! read more

It's Christmas Eve and I'm stuck on the wrong side of the storm-battered Cascade mountains, missing the family dinner. Ever an opportunist, I decided it was a good night to play out the Christmas-meal-at-a-Chinese-restaurant fantasy I've been harboring since watching "A Christmas Story" so many years ago. Though Peking duck wasn't available, I was happy to settle for the fillet of sole with green beans and black bean sauce. In the holiday spirit, I paired this with a bottle of Tsingtao. Right away I was served a bowl of hot and sour soup. This small starter was surprisingly tasty, with crunchy fresh sprouts and celery. Shortly after my soup, I was presented with a massive plate, mounded with green beans and big chunks of sole. Over steamed rice, half of this plate satisfied my appetite. It was good, but lacked the excitement I have come to expect from Chinese food. I can't complain, however, because the service was delightful and speedy, the place warm and clean, and the whole meal (plus leftovers!) fell under $15. If you're looking for cheap, quick, and filling Chinese eats, Chan's is a great choice. read more

Best Chinese restaurant in Bend. Since their remodel the atmosphere is beautiful. Warm friendly staff. The food is fantastic, not greasy like other locals. Their lunch menu offers a lot of items that give you a lot of food for the price. Easily one of our first choices when deciding where to eat out or order for pick up. Thanks Chan. read more

best Chinese in bend but still not that great I don't think that there is a real good Chinese food place in central Oregon but if I get a craving for it this is where I would go. Not bad read more

There aren't too many options for Chinese food in Bend and while it may not be the best, this is one of the best. The service is about average. I've been coming here for years and decided to write review after my most recent visit because the service was better than usual and I think they are making a conscious effort to improve upon their customers experience. It wasn't horrible to begin with, but it's noticeably better. I give it 4 stars all around. read more

This use to be one of my favorite places but after last night I will never go again. There were four of us and we ordered pot stickers, a beef dish and a shrimp dish. The pot stickers were tasteless and cold in the middle, we did not get any sauce with them because the waitress said the kitchen hadn't prepared any which is strange since they come with sauce??? The food came and the beef was slimy and the shrimp were small. We left with having eaten very little while paying a lot. Then only good part about this experience was the tea! read more

The best Chinese restaurant ever! My family and I always eat here & only here for Chinese food. They have quick service and very generous portions! I always order the Kung pao chicken, extra sauce! It's amazing! read more

This will be the first time I write a bad review about any restaurant. I usually just spend my time writing about the good one. But I really think Chan should stop using old oil that tastes like it had been reused for numbers of time. I spent $30 on their food and all my family and I could tasted was old , stinky oil. It was gross and I felt really ripped off. read more

The veggie pho is the best I've had. It is always consistent and so good!

They did a great job. The food was very good, and they have huge portions. Best Chinese food I've found in Redmond.

I have been around the block a few times and Chan's is consistently the best Chinese food I have every had. Wonderful selection, great variety, very tasty and they will be very responsive to special requests. I have eaten at Chan's since before it was Chan's (Originally the China Ranch back in 1983 or '84 when Chan purchased it) and Chan himself pretty much did everything from seating you, taking your order, running into the back to cook it up and serving you with a smile. The Lunch specials cannot be beat for flavor, portions and value. Thanks Chan for almost 30 years of tasty food! You are truly an icon of Central Oregon's locally owned and operated businesses. read more

I first ate at Chan's almost 10 years ago while on vacation in Sunriver, and I have eaten here every time I have been back since then. The portions here are huge, one dish is large enough to feed three people! The prices are also really low. The food is great, there is a wide variety of dishes, and I have never been disappointed. Chan's is the place to go in Bend. read more

My family and I were visiting from out of town and stumbled upon this restaurant only because we needed some food in our bellies. But, I can tell you that this was some of the best, if not the best, Asian cuisine I have ever been served. The service was impeccable, and our waiter was so friendly, funny, and attentive. The prices, in regards to the huge portions you receive, are amazing! As of the portion sizes, I have never seen a bigger entree plate come out in my life. The three of us ordered 2 entrees to split, and we did not even finish half of it!! The food quality was great as well! The leftovers will definitely feed us for at least the next 2 meals. Our waiter recommended the "Mother's Chicken" as one of our entrees, and wow. The flavors were just perfection with just the right amount of everything! Absolutely nothing to complain about from our visit here!! read more

Recently we went to Chan's in hopes of a nice meal, however we received nothing of the sort. We were seated at our table and asked about 3 minutes later if we were ready to order. We had asked if we could substitute something different in a combo plate, the waitress who barely spoke English said she would have to go ask the manager. Came back and told us no, because they were two different sauces. Then she proceeded to give us an option, which we agreed to, then came back and told us the cook said no! We then told her we wanted to cancel our entire order and all she said was ok. No accommodation whatsoever. We will never go back or spend another penny there. We even asked if we could have a half portion of an entree....NOPE!!!! read more

We ended up throwing away all of the food that we ordered after a couple of bites. The takeout portions were admittedly huge, as mentioned in some reviews, but not in a generous family-style kind of way. Instead it seemed (and tasted) like they were trying to pawn off all of last weeks leftover chicken on us. Everything that had been fried tasted like rancid oil. I would rather have a reasonable sized portion of food that hasn't turned. You couldn't pay me to try this place again. read more

If you like good chinese food combined with explosive diarrhea, then Chans is the place for you. I did a quick search on phone for good restaurants in Bend as I was getting into town and Chans came up as fairly highly rated! Chinese sounded good! So the first warning sign should have been the fact i had to park next to a dumpster behind Chans that apparently is filled with rotting carcasses. The 2nd warning sign would have had to been the "NEW MENU" sign on the front door (makes you think what happened to the old menu?) But, I was hungry and Chinese sounded so good. I ordered the cashew chicken, which every Chinese person on planet earth learns to make by the age of 2. They coupled it with a free bowl of hot n sour soup and some fried rice! It all tasted pretty good, the soup was great, the cashew chicken quite good, the fried rice was more like Uncle Ben's but passable. I wolfed down as much as I could, paid the bill and got in the truck to continue on my journey north on Hwy 97. About Redmond, the warning signs from my stomach began. Kind of like an internal explosion, like you ate a box of Pop Rocks and drank a pepsi. But the moment passed and I didn't think anymore on it. BIG MISTAKE! As I neared Madras my internal combustion was starting to really hit its stride! I passed a gas station and thought "maybe i should pull in here and take care of business" but decided instead to soldier on. Another potentially fatal mistake because about a block later my insides told me they wanted to be outside. I raced into the McDonalds, cutting off a family of hungry people at the door and bolted to the bathroom JUST IN THE NICK OF TIME! My advice to travelers that eat at Chans is to have an emergency preparedness plan. Figure that the McDonalds in Madras is the very limit of human endurance and plan your next stop either in Redmond or at the southern end of Madras, like Burger King or Bi-Mart. read more

I can't believe so many people like this place. Maybe it's because the choices for Chinese food are very limited in town, and people just don't know any better. I've lived in Bend 10 years. Ate at Chan's when we first moved here. Both the hubby and I spent the rest of the night on the toilet. Gross. Just tried it again. Or I did. Hubby ate a bean and cheese burrito. I have one word to describe my latest experience at Chan's: BROWN. The food looked brown, smelled brown, and tasted brown. Veggies were limp and soft. Noodles were slimy and sticky. Everything tasted the same. Pineapple chicken claimed to be spicy. Nope. Mother's chicken was indescribable. The orange chicken was so flavorless that I couldn't even tell what it was until I bit into a rubbery, dried out piece of orange peel. The best thing was the spring rolls, which made me wish that was all I ordered. The potstickers were heavy, flavorless pork bombs. We will never eat here again. I'd rather eat McDonald's. Thank goodness we finally got a Panda Express. Veggies are crisp and bright. Kung Pao and Sweetfire chicken (pineapple chicken) are super flavorful. You can see them fresh wokking their food. Skip Chan's. Eat at Panda Express instead. Where the only brown is the steak, the teriyaki sauce, and the soy sauce. read more

should have stayed burnt down hard undercooked rice and sticky table plus the tea seemed more like hot water no flavor. will not be back worse than safeway read more

wait staff has changed, attitude is not nice. menu has changed to some degree. be very specific when ordering. used to be five star. really disappointing lately. lunch is better than dinner read more

Our family ate here and we all got violently ill the night after. I went in to let them know and they were very rude. I will never eat here again and wouldn't recommend. read more

Last try for Chans. We've eaten here 4 times now, always trying something different. I find their food to be either very bland or overly sweet and gooey. They give you plenty, but it's mostly tasteless. We tried the Eggplant, chicken, beef and shrimp clay pot. It promised tasty ginger/garlic flavors. There was plenty of chicken, some beef and 4 shrimp in a rather large bowl. Some sweet, sticky flavorless sauce. Also, how can you mess up hot and sour soup??? Too sweet and too thick. Veggie Low Mein had noodles, carrots, celery, sprouts and some onion. Nothing else. We're done. read more

Yup best Chinese Restaurant ever... Ok actually best restaurant ever, i will continue to come here and receive 5 star service and giant portions of food. read more

The last few meals and experiences I've had here have been superb. Amazing food, try the paper wrapped chicken, or Mongolian beef, or even the sechuan(sic) from the sea. Fantastic flavors, huge portions, and friendly staff. I've lived in bend my whole life, Chans is an institution and better than ever. read more

Typical Chinese Restaurant - fast - good - friendly. Waitresses master the bussy Dinner time with patience and speed. Food very good - very Chinese! Portions for the very big hunger! read more

First off, let me say that I have been working in restaurants for years. Many of which have been as a server, and I can't help but explain the service that my girlfriend and I received tonight at Chan's (Bend) as deplorable and utterly offensive! It started with the table we were seated at. Mind you, it was conveniently located next to the host stand as well as the entrance to the kitchen, and yes there were other tables available. The waitress, (unfortunately I wasn't there long enough to get her name), started by coming to our table which we had now been at for maybe, and this is pushing it, two whole minutes. Normally this would be a good start to the evening, but not when the first words out of her mouth were, "You ready to order?". No, "Hello, welcome, thanks for coming in, can I get you something to drink?", even if it is the most cliche approach at greeting a table. Anything would have been better than the snappy line she chose to open with. Don't worry people, it gets worse. From there we decided that we better hurry and make our decisions so the next time she came by we could be ready for our impetuous waitress. When she returned we ordered both our appetizer and entrees at the same time and the appetizer came out very quickly as a fried appetizer should, which was fine, the entrees came out when we were about halfway through with our appetizer, all the time I couldn't help but notice the lack of complimentary tea that had been served at every other table near by. What happened next is what really pushed us over the edge. We hadn't had our food for five minutes when our waitress came by our table and handed us boxes and a check! Are you ****ing kidding me!? I sat in amazement for a few moments, which was interrupted by our discourteous waitress making sure she had already brought us boxes! I got up and walked (the two steps) to the host stand where I asked for a manager. The lady at the host stand told me she was a manager so I proceeded to explain my experience to her, telling her that seeing as I had been in the restaurant for maybe 15-20 minutes and had already been given boxes and a check without being given the time to simply begin our meal. She tried to ask why we had already eaten some and I told her what she was referring to was the few bites we took before having our check thrown at us and I walked out. Never have I witnessed a worse display of hospitality than I did tonight. This is all very unfortunate seeing as Chan's has been one of my favorite places for Chinese food since I started coming here as a kid with my parents. I do not plan on returning. read more

Years ago Chan's was the best. Last week 3 of us met and ordered 4 dishes. The service was superb. The orders are still huge. Very huge. We took home enough for 4 people. But---where were the vegetables? Even in the chow mien there were few, and none on the other 3 dishes. The Sweet and sour pork pieces were hard and could not be cut with a fork. The sauce on each of the 2 other dishes tasted the same. We could not find any sesame seeds on the sesame chicken. Prices range around $9.99 for order, rice and tea. And that is easily enough for 3. Once Chan's was the best, now, they need to clean the air ducts and buy more vegetables. read more
