Truly magnificent the shrimp and lobster sauce lunch special is off the Richter scale I recommend shrimp and lobster sauce it comes with with fresh vegetables you can taste every vegetable in every bit of flavor in each bite read more

Chopsticks is a hole-in-the-wall Chinese restaurant located in a strip mall on Central Road in Rolling Meadows. I live in Chicago, but I've gone here several times to buy Chinese food for my parents who live about a mile away. Inside, there are a few chairs, and maybe a table. The kitchen and where you order is behind a counter and glass wall. There is nothing fancy about it, but Chopstick is meant to be a carry-out restaurant, so it's not a problem. They prefer cash but will take a credit card and charge 3-percent extra. That said, the entrees are bargain-priced and are served in generous portions. I recently ordered food for myself and a neighbor on a busy Father's Day. I did not order ahead, but it only took 15 minutes to prepare my order. I requested no MSG, and I was told that they do not use any--so that's a big plus for anyone who wants to avoid it. They have all the usual Chinese-American favorites, including their house special that has shrimp, chicken and beef. But the ingredients they use are fresh and high-quality--and that sets them apart from most carry-out restaurants of this type. My only complaint was that of my two orders, they mixed up the entrees--my neighbor was supposed to get the house special, and my husband was supposed to get the chicken and vegetable dish. But even though the entrees were mixed up, everyone was happy with what they received. If I lived closer, Chopsticks (cute name) would be my go-to Chinese-American restaurant. Here's to the lucky Rolling Meadows and Arlington Heights residents who live near it. read more

They have a Special Diet Dishes section. It is just steamed vegetables that you can get with meat and/or steamed shrimp and steamed white rice. Brown sauce is on the side. I can't have soy or wheat so this is perfect for me. I didn't think I would benefit able to order any food at a Chinese Restaurant due to my food sensitivities, but I was able to order this. Thank you! Portions are a good size, fast and convenient. I would recommend. Limited seating inside. read more

Chopstick - Steamed Mixed Vegetables with Chicken Take out - Szechuan Near Me - Rolling Meadows, Illinois

Small Chinese spot in a strip mall. Family owned. Food was better than expected. My go-to is the egg drop soup. It's phenomenal.

I recommend chow foon with beef, because it's authentic Chinese taste. Also, try beef pan fried noodle. It has variety of vegetables w/ sautéed tender beef. Pour all these on top of the dried pan noodle to soften it, delicious! read more

Had the beef chow fun was hot and beef was tender as well as vegetables and noodles were cooked to perfection with a large portion for me.

Ugh! I hate leaving negative reviews. I also hate that people know a place is bad and won't tell you. I ordered via phone because Uber fees were very high. The order was correct. The food was hot. Unfortunately, when I arrived I waited for a while the staff discussed something in Chinese. It's a glass window and I was visible but not acknowledged. I ordered crab Rangoon. It was tasty. I ordered hot and sour soup. Also tasty, but not spicy. The crunchy toppings that came with it were stale. I ordered Mongolian chicken for my husband and he called it onion soup and said there was no meat. I ordered Kung Pap Tofu, there was no spice and it was the driest food I've ever eaten. Perhaps this is due to the protein being tofu. Not my fault, they need to alter the liquid ratio for this dish. It was not edible. I ordered combination fried rice. It was just, okay. The beef had a strange texture like Salisbury steak so I'm not sure what that was. I would not order from here again. read more

They are a sweet small family business and I recommend you try it you won't be disappointed. GO TRY IT! ABSOLUTELY AMZING FOOD! read more

This place is pretty good - my parents have gotten it a few times, it's honestly a hit or miss. Sometimes the dishes are delicious and sometimes they're just mediocre at best. I recommend their egg rolls, sesame chicken, and beef with broccoli! Also, it's so worth it just to get a large, don't even bother with the small size. It's a few bucks more for the large and it's significantly bigger. Overall I do recommend Chopstick for some affordable Chinese food!! read more

Not bad. Tried this place with hubby recently. I tried the sweet and sour chicken it was reasonably priced, and reasonably sized. Freshness could be improved. Husband's dish was reasonable. Pricing is about typical for Chinese. Order was reasonably prompt. read more

Writing this review as i'm eating their delicious beef chow fun. This is a family owned take out/delivery restaurant, i often have requests to have my food cooked certain way and they always listen, where many other chinese restaurant would just say no. Very fair prices, generous portions, best bang for buck in town! i recommend their beef chow fun, pan fried noodles and crispy szechwan beef. read more

Ordered a delivery from here. I was disappointed as it was really greasy. Not sure if it was because I ordered so close to closing or not. The portion size was nice - but that doesn't matter if you don't like the food. Much better options not much further away. read more

My son and I are totally addicted. We come here twice a week for the orange chicken. It's the best that's all I can say you have to go there yourself it's a dive in a wall kind of place but the food is amazing. read more

Stopped here on a whim to get a quick lunch. I picked it because it looked convenient and was neat the hospital on the way to O'Hare. We ended up eating in even through the dining area is pretty small, but the wait wasn't long. What I got was some of the most delicious Chinese food I've ever had, all for a very reasonable price. The staff were extremely nice and got the food out pretty quickly. This might be viewed more as a takeout place but honestly just getting the food straight off the stove was great. It's not glamorous but makes up for it by the care put into the cooking. I'll definitely be back in the future read more

We really are spoiled by fast food. It becomes so easy to just go to Panda Express ten thousand times we look past local businesses: and one day on a whim I decided to come here instead and it was one of the best spontaneous decisions I made. The food is delicious: the beef chow fun and fried dumplings are a particular favorite of mine, and the sweet and sour soup is also delicious. The staff is nice and welcoming, and one day after ordering the wrong item online, they were happy to help accommodate my order. It may not be a fancy looking place, but it doesn't need to be. Can be a little hot in the summer, but they have fans to help cool you down. Sometimes, you can't just do with passable fast food anymore. You need real food. And that's what this is: good Chinese food. You eat here, you don't just get the feeling of supporting a local business living the American dream: your stomach and taste buds will be thanking you as well. read more

Very disappointed with our online order. The restaurant did not start making it until we arrived at the restaurant to pick up. Even after we paid for the order, it still did not get worked on for another 10 minutes. Then we waited another 20 minutes for the order to be ready and the staff was rude to my husband who waited for 1/2 hour for an order we expected to just pick up. If the policy is to wait until the customer arrives and pays for the order before you even start cooking, that should be made clear on the website. I would've paid for the order and then gone to pick it up if I had known that. No apology, no credit for waiting... guess what, no more business from us. read more

First time ordering from here. But the wife had a taste for Pad Thai, and she chose this place. Crab Rangoon: Standard fare. Nothing special. Not bad. Fried fantail Shrimp: Way too bready and were falling apart as they were fried too long. Not good. Pad Thai: Actually favorite of the dishes we got. Very unusually sweet, though? I'd get this again. Shrimp with Lobster Sauce: This is normally one of my favorite Chinese take out dishes. This was nothing that I was used to. It came in a soup container and was very soupy and not like the usual thicker gravy. It also had a variety of veggies not found in the dish. Wasn't that good. I'll give them another shot and update my review. My usual go tos are Mongolian beef and egg rolls. And that is what I will try next read more

Let me tell you, this place is literally the best Chinese food spot, literally ever. Even better than most sit down restaurants. The freshness is top notch, and their crab ragoons are perfectly cooked and generously filled with cream cheese. I personally love their beef chow fun, the noodles are chewy, it's flavorful, and overall perfect. The service is quick and they are very nice. I'm not sure if this place is family owned, but it's definitely a place to support and but from. You get a huge bang for your buck, and the deliciousness of their food will keep you coming back for more. The ambiance isn't much, but the food completely makes up for it. Definetly give this place a try. I really recommend it! read more

Never have been disappointed in anything we've ordered. Very friendly staff too Egg Foo Young is good as well as the sesame chicken read more

Prices were good! Food was decent. Was finished quickly and served hot. Each dinner came with an egg roll and the choice of fried or steamed rice. For 4 adult dinners we paid $40. Not bad! If I'm in the area again & craving Chinese, I'd order here again. read more

Ordered take out tonight. When I went to pic it up I was greeted with what I believed to be a husband and wife behind the counter screaming at each and it pretty much stayed like that the entire 10 minutes I waited for my food. .if I hadn't already paid for my food I would have walked out. When I got home I was very disappointed with the quality. The Egg rolls were flavorless, crab Rangoon no taste or any visible sign of anything other than cream cheese. Of the 3 entrees the amount of protein in the dishes was extremely frugal, pretty much 98% veggies. 1st time I tried it and last. I'm wondering how this place has a 4 star rating . Maybe the high school students from the high school down the road . The one thing I was impressed with was the work ethic of the 9 yr old kid working behind the counter, read more

Located on the corner of Wilke Road and Euclid in Rolling Meadows. We have tried this place two times and find the food to be good and prices fair. Nice selection of appetizers, some different from the usual you find at other places, such as steamed vegetable dumplings. The egg drop soup is very tasty. They are VERY busy during dinner pick up. There are a few small tables to eat in, but mainly take out. We will go there again. read more

Fantastic service! Great food! Family owned! I've been coming here for almost 4 years now and have never had a bad experience. I'd like to say thank you to the woman that helped with my order. She was very accommodating!! read more

I give up. I give up looking for any other Chinese food ever again. THIS is the place for me. All roads lead to Chopstick. I bow to them. I have had Chinese delivery from just about every place in Schaumburg and the outlying areas (I travel often. Plus I love Chinese food. You know what? Don't judge me). I've had the soggy, crappy egg rolls. The bland and pale chicken. The rubbery shrimp. Beef that could double as a doorstop. But this? This erases them all from my memory. The General Tso's Chicken is crispy with just the right amount of zing. The Kung Pao Chicken is spicy and tender, the Hunan Beef could use some salt, but the beef was juicy and plentiful, and the Garlic Shrimp had enough garlic to offend every vampire within 20 miles (which is just the way it should be). I can't stop eating. For real. Just be happy I quit long enough to take pics. Don't waste your time with the other places- trust me. And sure I'm a stranger on the Internet, but I'm also a chubby chef so I know my stuff. UPDATE 7/9/18 I didn't think it could get better, but it did. This time we got moo shu, egg rolls, beef & broccoli and dumplings (along with the Kung Pao and the General Tso's). The Kung Pao was actually BETTER this time around! Everything else was awesome as well- needed a bit of salt, but otherwise amazing! My only issue isn't with the restaurant- it's with Yelp. I should have been able to order online for delivery, but I was told repeatedly that this restaurant doesn't deliver to my location. Um...yes it DOES. So I put in my order over the phone, and voilá! Food at my doorstep. Fix it, Yelp. This place could be losing customers who aren't yet as obsessed as I am. read more

We ordered from Chopstick using one of the delivery services in the area. This was our first time and we selected them for the reviews we saw on the ordering website. Also, their pricing seemed to be lower than many of the other Chinese Restaurants offering delivery. The food arrived on time - and was hot. Since the order was over a certain amount ($15 I think?) they gave us two free Egg Rolls. We ordered three items: Szechuan Chicken, House Egg Foo Young, and Sauteed String Beans. I was impressed with the quality of the food for the price. Even without considering price, the food was excellent. I wish I had taken a few pictures to share but we were hungry when the food arrived, and we just dug in. I don't have any idea what it is like inside. I don't know and can't comment on how comfortable it is, what the atmosphere is like, or the service in the restaurant. What I can tell you is that the next time we order Chinese food delivery, we will be ordering from Chopstick. read more

Chopstick is the definition of a hole-in-the-wall restaurant. From the outside it might not seem like much, but their food is exceptional! I've ordered from here many times. Their delivery is usually pretty quick and I've also done carry out. My go-tos usually include: lo mein, fried rice, orange chicken, beef and broccoli, egg rolls, and crab rangoons. Everything is always delicious and decent size portions. Their lo mein, orange chicken, and crab rangoons are some of the most flavorful I've ever had! Chopsticks is by far one of my favorite Chinese restaurants in the area. YUM! read more

Great food! Fast delivery! Great customer service! Will come back for more!!!! Thank you again!!! read more

There are ton's of asian restaurants in the burbs and I'm pretty sure I'm sampled most of them but ChopStick's is by far the most consistent in its freshness and taste! Take something as simple as the brown sauce that accompanies their egg foo young. With the vast majority of Chinese take out place, it's usually bland an either too soupy with a weird coating on top or it's too thin. With Chopsticks, their brown sauce is the perfect consistency and texture and flavor is just dynamite! This is the case with all of the dishes I have tasted here! My favorite is the combo fried rice with general tso's chicken! read more

Great food and delivery service was fast and flawless! Highly recommend and will definitely order again when I'm in town.

Delivered right on time. Hot and delicious! Tasty House Soup with veggies (bamboo shoots, carrots, broccoli, and water chestnuts) plus beef, shrimp and chicken. Nice balance of soup and provisions. Pork Fried Rice was dry and shelly not sticky or too soft. Oh so good!!! First time trying this place. Thank you fellow yelpers for your review. Highly recommend as well. We'll definitely order from here again. read more

I've been going here for a few years now and it has always been good. This time I decided to try the sweet and sour chicken. It was a container of breaded chicken and container of sauce. No rice, no vegetables nothing. I thought that rice always came with the entree. Guess not. It's hard to find a good Chinese take out. I may have to continue my search. read more

This place is my go to for a healthy lunch special takeout when I'm doing work in the area. I get steamed white meat chicken and veggies with sauce on the side. The food is consistently delicious. The portion is large- one entree is often enough for 2 meals. Definitely do take out as there are 1-2 tables only in the whole restaurant and not a relaxing atmosphere with people coming in and out for take out orders read more

The female has a horrible disgusting attitude. Food tastes like mush. Avoid this place. Don't ask for ingredients or they yell and lose their minds. Trash read more

I was craving some take out Chinese and racked my brain with nearby places, preferably one I had yet to try. I remembered reading Chopstix was a favorite for some in the area, so I drove over to give it a shot. I walked in to what seemed to be an argument, yet I continued in to browse the menu. They had many dishes to choose from and it appeared lunch dishes were a great deal. I noticed a section of steamed options, with sauces on side, for healthy alternative, which was nice to see. I ended up ordering enough for a small family and was out the door, food in hand, fairly quickly. Once home, I dug right in. To my dismay, I was searching flavor in each dish. Unfortunately, I was underwhelmed. I'd say all the proteins themselves were fine, but the flavors of everything were simply lacking for me. The Ma Po Tofu was in a spicy, yet overly soupy, red sauce with peppers and chunks of pork, rather than a grounded pork. Probably the worst I've had. The best of the three entree dishes I ordered was the Scallops and Garlic Sauce. For the appetizers, the steamed potstickers were tasty enough. Maybe I'll try some different dishes in the future, in hopes that I just ordered the wrong things, but I won't be running back any time soon to do so. Not because I don't run, which is true, but because nothing was worth going back for seconds. read more

When I saw this place was going to open in town, my first thing was great, another Asian restaurant, just what we need in Arlington Heights. Well my boys wanted food from a place two doors down yesterday and I stopped in here for some vegetable fried rice. A solid fried rice with really fresh ingredients and not buried in soy sauce. Today the family decided to get take-out from Chopstix and it was mixed reviews, though all positive. We ordered egg drop soup, hot and sour soup, steamed pot stickers, beef and broccoli, and sweet and sour chicken. I don't eat sweet and sour chicken, though the family really liked it. The boys and I really liked the beef an broccoli, though my wife didn't care for the beef so much. Again nice fresh broccoli in the dish, really nice. The steamed pot stickers are the best we have gotten from any Asian restaurant in the area. The sauce they served with it had fresh garlic in it, nice flavor. I had the hot and sour soup, it was okay. Again fresh ingredients, but it was over thickened (imo) which gave it to much of a gelatin texture, I think the egg drop may have been the same from what I could see. The boys enjoyed that and said they liked it. All and all a good dinner, we surely will be back and I have already told some people at work about it. It will be interesting on how the food matures as the business grows. I hope they keep up the good work. read more
