    Sesame Chicken

    We love eating here. The staff is very friendly. The menu has a wide selection. The portions are incredibly generous.

    Super nice people that work here. Food is excellent and the price is on point. Had curry shrimp and man was it delicious. Creamy and spicy, perfect flavors and amount of shrimp. Stay away from the other Chinese restaurants in Spencer this place is it.

    Extra large portions of soup!

    I have to say this is hands down the best sushi we have ever had. Very generous portions of tuna in our rolls. I had a tempura tuna roll (had never seen tempura sushi roll before in our travels) and it was exquisite. Hubby got the volcano roll. Both were good and I wouldn't favor one over the other but hubby ultimately liked the tempura roll slightly better. We both got a bowl of soup. He had egg drop and I had hot and sour. Warning: the bowl is enough for four if not six people! Keep that in mind. We got egg rolls for appetizer and they arrived freshly made and steaming hot. The menu is extensive and rather than offering one style of Asian food offers Japanese, Thai, Chinese and maybe more. You can also order a pot of specialty Japanese tea for the table. Will have to try that next trip. Our service was prompt, attentive, and friendly. Food arrived in timely manner. Store and convenience rooms are very clean. Prices are very good. All in all, we are impressed to find such a quality Asian food restaurant in the middle of, well, the Midwest! Update: we have been back to Chen's at least five more times and have never been disappointed. Tried the pot of hot tea, Jasmine and also Kings something or other....I think that is what it is called. Generous amount of exquisite tea. Service has always been friendly and prompt. If meal took longer at times it is because it is all made when ordered and fresh. But never a inordinately long wait.

    Thank you Yelp!f for finding this place for me! Pho in Iowa?? Yes please. I WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK. I've had the chicken and the beef Pho and both are yum. Don't forget the Sriracha and hoisin sauce!

    Food is okay. Hard for my wife, who is disabled, to access up the step to the door. Their service needs to be brighter and happier.

    Food was very overrated and the service was very slow and unpleasant. Would highly recommend going to any other Chinese place in the area.
