Consistently good. Not many choices in Cranberry Twp except maybe Red Bowl. Jimmy Wan's which is more upscale with higher prices. Chen's does a good takeout business. Food is ok, consistent. I go there pretty regularly. read more

Orange chicken a bust. Overcooked and dry, hardly any orange sauce, wouldn't do an upcharge for pork fried rice, got white instead, bland, egg roll greasy af! Never again! read more

Chen's is a family run Asian restaurant which is tucked away on a side street of Cranberry. The pros: this is some of highest quality and best tasting Chinese food I have had. It rivals some of the most flashy, trendy, and expensive places in major cities. The spices are refined, tge chicken is all white meat, and the vegetables are fresh. Prices are extremely reasonable and portions are good size. Service is friendly and efficient. The cons: the decor is a bit outdated and if you don't like koi, go elsewhere. Overall a hidden gem. Highly recommend. read more

I really hate to give this place 1 star cus the food truly is sooo Delicious.... like seriously hate to cus it's the best chines in Pittsburgh I think.... but if I send back pink chicken, I mean undercooked freaking chicken,... do not freaking tell me that's how it's suppose to be! I'm not getting a food born illness for your stupidity... no manager presents, no one to tell me otherwise except this server that was snippy at me bc I sent a dish back... are you kidding me.... I hate when restaurants make it seem like the guests fault.... Clearly some training needs to happen read more

This place has awesome Chinese cuisine. We always get the sesame chicken, chicken lo mein +\- crab rangoons. Always delicious, nice staff, super fast service for takeout orders! read more

Dependable quality and good sized servings. A Cranberry Twp staple for many years. Good pricing. Beats Jimmy Wans pricing for sure with little difference on quality. Ambiance not fancy but clean. read more

Chen's is an excellent family friendly Chinese restaurant. We love it and we love taking our family and friends with us. Our granddaughter has been enjoying it since she was 4. The servers are friendly and always happy to help. The food is excellent and the portions are large. We love the decor inside and out. read more

We did takeout and it was a pretty penny so I was expecting (especially based on the venue when we went to pick it up) for it to be fresh and really exceptional chinese food. I paid $50 for 3 entrees lol. The food was good, but, it wasn't $50 good. Made me think more of what I get when I order from Panda Express :-\ read more

Visited House of Chen for lunch on July 15, 2022. The food was very good with a above average presentation. The hot n sour soup was overloaded with soy sauce. PRICE: The menu price stated $12.50 for the lunch Seafood special. The check was written as $14.25. Stated reason was inflation. A sign was posted as such. However, the staff didn't indicate the inflation price. Be sure you ask for the correct price so you are not surprised. read more

Best Chinese in the area. Staff are all great and professional and the owner runs a very successful business.

The food was not very good at all. My food was rock hard and burnt tasting. The service was fast and friendly though.

love their food and staff. the fish are cool too. the drinks taste a little funny though..

House of Chen is a very nice looking place to each. It has a lovely family atmosphere, and most friendly. The serving staff are very attentive. The food was nicely spiced. On the down side the pork and the beef were stringy and tough. I could not each 1/3 of my pork dish and had to "spit them out". This was the same as the Mongolian beef for my wife's dinner. It appeared that they were using the cheapest cuts of meat. The WonTon soup had very little flavor and appeared to be watered down far too much, and the stuffing the the wontons very bland. I really like the potential of this, and the family working together. This has potential, however, an investment in better meats is needed. I will come back to see if improvements can be made, as I hope it succeeds read more

American Chinese at its finest. Food is always very good. Favorite is the General Tso Shrimp. Lots of shrimp and broccoli in a great sauce. Usually order Chinese vegetables and black pepper pork for the family. Typically do takeout. The building is beautifully landscaped with a wonderful koi pond. Worth stopping there just to see the koi. Hot pots or sizzling platters are the way to go when dining in. Have tried most of them and all are fabulous. Owner is so nice. Wait staff has always been good. read more

We are looking for a good chinese restaurant in Pittsburgh area and one of my chinese friend was recommended House of Chen. We weren`t scary to spend a bit time to drive in Cranberry Township and we were so pleased with our experience finally! The exterior of the restaurant is very charming. There is a cute small pond with live fish outside. You can sit on the bench, look at the fish and admire the sunset:) The interior is very cosy and spacious at the same time. We came over on weekday, so there were only a few visitors. We made an order and got our food extremely fast. Orange Chicken was so tasty and the portion was huge. The prices are very reasonable especially compare to chinese fine restaurants in Pittsburgh. I am very happy with House of Chen. Highly recommend. read more

Chen’s - Orange Chicken with fried rice, House of Chen - Chinese Near Me - Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania

All pre cooked. Three different items were brought out within two minutes of ordering. Mediocre service. Unlikely to go back.

Food is below average at best. Overpriced. The people are nice enough, but I feel like I'm stepping into 1972

Great Atmosphere, Great Food, and Good Prices. I will go back in a heartbeat the next time I am in the area

The food is authentic Chinese and always provided in generous portions. The service is generally good. The ambiance fits with cuisine and the fish tanks and outside koi ponds add an exotic touch. read more

Great food and atmosphere! Always quick and friendly service and a great place to go with family or friends.

Chen's is your typical Chinese/Americanized food but taken up a notch. I can eat it ravenously. The Szechuan entree could be way spicier though. read more

Food is very good, but I was shocked when I went to pick up my order a few weeks ago, that the workers were not wearing masks.

I've always loved this business. I always order chicken, rice, and broccoli. I would love to have more chicken included in my meal. I have more broccoli than I do chicken! The rice is always fresh, and yummy. read more

I ate here today with 2 coworkers for lunch. We were originally undecided about where to go when one of my coworkers mentioned that she had eaten here recently that it was good. I can't say that I would have found it on my own as it is hard to see from the main road. It also does not look terribly impressive from the outside which is a shame because the inside is really nice. It has many different soothing colors on the walls, some big fish tanks on a wall, a nice waterfall outside and most importantly was super clean! For my entree I decided to go with the Beef with Garlic Sauce extra spicy and it came with a soup for which I chose the hot and sour soup. It was a little thicker than the hot and sour soup that I am used to but still tasted good with some pork and tofu with a little heat. My entree was fairly large for a lunch portion with a lot of beef, some vegetables and nice big side of fried rice. The sauce of the dish had a great garlic flavor and a decent spice level although I still would have liked it a bit spicier. In any case I proceeded to eat all of the meal and was very happy with my entree choice. The bottom line for me is that I would definitely head back here in the future. I loved the atmosphere of the place, especially the colors and what I imagine is outdoor seating in the summer, and the food was good too! read more

Excellent service Food is absolutely amazing. Great service and I love the fish pond Staff does a get job catering to your needs and going above the call of duty. Love the indoor fish aquariums read more

Always excellent service and food. Generous portions. Fish tanks are present inside with a koi pond outside

Our normal place went out so we tried this on a whim. Just coming in, it's got a great atmosphere and the hostess was super friendly. We had chicken and broccoli, veggie fried rice, and chicken lo mien which were all so delicious and crab rangoon which was just ok. We loved our experience and we will be back! read more

Mostly consistent. Very nice and the only small complaint is the oil. It makes everything taste the same. The entrees on most days are pretty solid and we enjoy dinner here read more

I was kind of floored by House of Chen. I haven't been here since I was a kid and to be honest, I did not have high expectations. My family (party of 6) decided to try out House of Chen on a Saturday night. We were seated immediately and our waiter was probably the best waiter I've ever had - attentive, could answer our questions, and super laidback. He even split up our meals in a way that pleased us all! I don't think he could have done any wrong. We split Crab Ragoon and Pan-Fried Dumplings for appetizers and we were all pleased. I had the Chicken Lo Mein and looovveeed it. There was so much food for the price! I also noticed that there were a lot of families there with their children but you couldn't hear them. I really liked that - definitely family friendly. read more

This was hands down the best Kung pow I have ever had anywhere! The staff was great and I didn't wait for anything!

Every time I come here the food is fantastic. From the owner to the people cleaning tables, the staff is fantastic. The food always comes out hot, fresh, and full of flavor. I have worked around the menu and everything here tastes great! There general tsos and beef fried rice are fantastic. Great place to eat and their take out is wonderful too. read more

Delicious take out with friendly, helpful service. A great family run establishment that has been a part of the Cranberry landscape for years! My parents hands down favorite for Chinese. read more

Great Food! Really lovely people! Been going there quite regularly for over 16 years. I haven't been disappointed yet.

Great food and GREAT staff! Our waiter was SO nice, so personable. He literally brought me EVERY type of sauce to sample prior to me ordering, and was so happy and upbeat. I had shrimp, my husband Mongolian beef. The food was EXCELLENT and the prices are reasonable. The atmosphere was nice - private and quiet, yet you could wear jeans - wasn't super upscale or pretentious. We will definitely go back! read more

Coworker and I ordered for dinner. Really enjoyed are meals. I got General Tso and pork fried rice. Both were fresh and hot. Will order again read more

Hands down, the worst meal I've ever had. Crab Rangoon- fairly priced, average taste Seafood Soup- $9.00- was served in what looked to be an old metal dog food bowl. It was basically slimy salty water with a bag of vegetable medley thrown in (the kind you can find in any frozen food isle). It also had trace amounts of some type of imitation seafood strips. Shrimp with Lobster Sauce- 16.50- Now this was the real kicker. This incredible expensive meal was so absolutely revolting that I simply could not eat it. This dish was a bowl of at least hour old fried rice and a vomit inducing plate of the same exact snotty watery substance with around eight pieces of jumbo shrimp. Honestly someone having the audacity to serve something this poor is just purely disrespectful. I challenge anyone from anywhere to come to this joke of a restaurant, order the same thing, and try not to puke. read more

House of Wow! I first ate at House of Chen back in the year 2001, on a trip with some friends that had eaten there in years past. And it was easily the best Chinese food I had ever had. The decor was nice, the service was great, and they did this thing where they would line up these glasses of water in a semicircle, and pour water into it with a pitcher filled with small slices of lemon. The waiter would then fill the glasses of water in one fell swoop, and somehow, each glass would have exactly two pieces of lemon in it. So let's fast forward nine years. My friends and I had not been to House of Chen since 2001, and it had become a place of legend in our minds, in our hearts, and in our stomachs. I was visiting them in Buffalo, NY. Nostalgia had us Google the establishment. Uh-oh. It wasn't House of Chen anymore, it had rebranded itself as Chen's of Cranberry. The restaurant had been remodeled. We debated endlessly, wondering if things were different, and so we called. We called and we found out that the restaurant had only been renovated, that it was still owned and managed by the same people, and that the food was allegedly the same. With that knowledge, we planned a three hour road trip from Buffalo, NY to Pittsburgh, PA. Our official mission was to frequent the Ikea there, because one of our company had just moved into a new house and so needed house type stuff. But deep in our hearts, we knew our true goal: to once again dine at House of Chen. We were afraid. Not having eaten there for almost a decade, the restaurant had achieved a somewhat mythical status in our heads. And we were afraid that returning would ruin it. In sort of the same manner that if you watched the cartoons we loved so much as a kid, we would hate them. (Side note, do NOT watch Voltron on Hulu if you loved Voltron as a child.) Returning was a big risk to take. We didn't want to ruin the past. And after a long day of driving and Ikea-ing we arrived. The placed looked about the same as it did in my memory. The koi pond was still there. So far so good. The inside was drastically different, but passable. We ordered. No waiter pouring lemon slices into our water glasses with precision. We started to worry. And the food arrived. And all of our fears were set aside. All was right in the world. The food was as good as we remembered. Quality ingredients, friendly wait staff, great presentation, and reasonably priced for quality food. The waitress who served us listened to our story and was quite surprised that we had driven so far down to eat there. In fact, during the said meal, I actually paused to text friends to let them know I was at House of Chen and that the food was still incredible. And I even posted pictures to Facebook to share with everyone of the triumph of the soul that we had achieved that night. A year has passed since the last time we had eaten there, and now I live in Boston. But at the end of this summer, we all are planning to return to House of Chen. read more
