Food was good, atmosphere was comfortable. It's a nice home-town feel, and the staff was great! We ate at canal park, and was surprised how much celery was in the Peking beef read more

See all

Very disappointed drove home realized we didn't get what we ordered. Live a long way from the restaurant so just ate it!

My first and last time ordering from here....My Peeking Beef was nearly all celery.....So we ordered Peeking Beef....we ended up getting Peeking Celery!( not a real dish just a joke) 95% of the dish was vegetables/celery...note on the pic I added, we did remove all of the beef for dinner and half of what we removed included celery. The pork fried rice was ok and sweet and sour chicken. Not sure Ill come back here again. read more

Chopsticks Inn - Peeking Beef....no wait 95% Celery!! - Chinese Near Me - Duluth, Minnesota

Higher prices, lower quality food. They gave us canned chicken that was like spam consistency in our rice. Did not taste good. Did not advertise correct prices on website. They defiantly have gone downhill. They lost a customer. Quite disappointed... read more

FOOD is GOOD...... but...it is next to a bar where the drunks are a problem. They interfere with phone in orders and dinning experience. Place is 3rd generation Dulutians with a history of Union employees before a retard cleaning guy making French fries burned the place down and they relocated to present spot and downsized. It is very hard to do business in Duluith with the leftist progressives making too many demands on small business. Most reasonable price good food has moved to Superior Wisconsin and the rest here are tourist traps. Chopsticks still tries to keep the costs down for working and retired folks to enjoy. Only problems is some of the customer, especially from the bar. Davy Jones 1128 E 6th ST Duluth MN read more

Had a take out order for our family. We have ordered from here before with good results, but this experience was so disappointing I doubt we will again. Sesame chicken: chicken was obviously frozen prepackaged food. Looked exactly like Tyson popcorn chicken honestly. The sauce was greasy, bland and for some reason totally devoid of sesame. Lo Mein: pretty sure a lot of this was frozen too. The vegetables were soggy. Noodles sticky. Again, flavorless. Mongolien beef: 90% onions. Literally had to search for beef in it at all. read more

Huie's offers an American-Chinese dining experience that is wholly enjoyable. The first thing that sets Huie's apart is that it offers no buffet at lunchtime. Everything you eat will be cooked fresh for you. My Szechuan Chicken was "Minnesota Hot" (e.g. mild as can be), but its lack of heat was more than made up for by the plentiful chunks of fresh chicken, perfectly fried. The fried rice was light and not greasy, with bits of roast pork adding their sweet/salty goodness to the party. The tea actually tasted of tea, unlike the usual free tea. All of this can be yours for less than you'd pay at Leeann Chin or the local barfet. I later learned that the owners of this restaurant have a family connection to the late, lamented Chinese Lantern. You can still order "Joe's Shrimp" from the Lantern, in fact, and I will probably do that the next time I am here. Bonus points for the Old School red exterior, and for sharing a bathroom with the Pioneer Bar next door. read more

Pretty much all Duluthians of a certain age remember the Chinese Lantern - hands down the best Chinese restaurant in town. Until it burned down. Instead of rebuilding the owners downsized and opened Chopsticks. Chopsticks is a fraction the size and the atmosphere of the Lantern. BUT. The food is the same! I have not been here for years but on a recent trip home my mom and I were craving Chinese food so we decided Chopsticks would be the place to go. My favorite thing ever is the chicken wings with oyster sauce. It's gotta be a Duluth thing because I've never found them in any other city. They sound weird but they are delicious, trust me. I got them with the lunch combo - wings, fried rice and an egg roll. So good! My mom ordered chicken chow mein and she said it was as good as ever. As we were eating the staff came out and they were eating lunch family style at the style next to us. As they were eating they were speaking Chinese. That's how you know it's a good Chinese place! Don't be turned off by the run down exterior - this place is great. Or if you just can't get past the door you can always get delivery. read more

I have traditionally ordered the Imperial Delight, which contains both shrimp and lobster. The last few times they have left out the lobster and charged the full price. False advertising. Been going there for years but clearly things have changed for the worse. read more

First, the food tasted fine once I got it. However, for the second visit in a row the English speaking cook was yelling from the kitchen blaming everyone for a problem and refusing to help fix it. Continuing to argue making things very awkward for their staff and more importantly the customers waiting for our orders. He is an embarrassment to Chopsticks and should not be employed with the blatant disrespect to co-workers and customers alike. Unfortunately we will not be returning anytime soon because of it. read more

We been going here for 11 years now tonight was the end and worst expierierience ever at this place son had general TSO chicken and pork friend rice he said it was rubbery and sweet tasting.the cooks came to the table said you pay 30% the waitress called Wendy the manager she waved the cost cooks yelled GO to Hell Wendy my plate I ordered subgum chicken with sweet sour chicken never have they put sauce on our chicken it was also rubbery and soggy my crunchy noodles were swimming in juice and soggy .they need to learn customer service and not yell or swear in a public restaurant. And learn when a.customer is not happy with the meal replace it or no charge not pay 30% 11 years we won't go back and we will post it on FB sites how horrible the food was and how they treat customers. read more

Order Green Pepper steak with tomato, fried rice with egg foo young. Plus other items on menu. It was delivered to a handicap. Service was by a senior citizen who gave wonderful service. The order was very generous with portions. Very tasty. Very reasonably priced. The Chicken fingers were huge and much more then ten piece that I order for my Pomeranians so I can eat my dinner in peace. It was more bang for your buck than other delivered food. Other food is getting so grill tastes of last order made on it. Chopstick inn uses a wok and tasty is fresh and not over done. Huey Family has been cooking in DULUTH for generations and warehouses drivers say they only use top quality items in their purchases. You must get your iPad out to fine what each item is on the menu. Some are spicy. When you get the wiki definition you can order you likes easier. read more

My first time ordering from here. My cream cheese wontons were wantnot! I think it was about a dime size smear wallowing in an oily mess in very thick wonton think pasta thick... ~ Nice... uh.... not... Let's not forget about the hair, yes, that is a hair in the food. I first thought... hmmm long stringy vegetable thing and then I kept pulling and pulling... and pulling... wiping off strand... and saw it indeed appeared to be a hair... a real hair! Into the trash bin, it went. I would suggest staying away from "cream cheese wontons" because they really are wantnots. There are other reviews that are extremely positive... and I am... jealous... so follow what the positive reviewers ordered and stay away from what I ordered and you should be fine. read more

Been many years since I ate from here. When I first came to Duluth it was one of two of my go to places for Chinese because both were nearby but I since found much better. I have ordered from here twice now in the past couple months. The first time I ordered the Joe Huie's Fried Shrimp to see what people were raving about, and a quart of pork fried rice and had them add extra eggs, onions and bean sprouts. For me, the telltale signs of a good Chinese place is their fried rice and egg roll. If they do those well, chances are everything else will be good. The shrimp were good. Nothing Chinese about them but many people rave so I had to find out. They are served with french fries. They are large butterflied shrimp in panko bread crumbs and a very good portion. The problem was the oil. It obviously had been a long time since the fryer oil had been changed so everything was very greasy. The fries were dark and almost transparent from the dirty oil. The shrimp were also but still somewhat edible. I did eat them all. The fried rice.... I could not taste anything but burned oil. They had the wok oil beyond smoking. Was not a happy camper. FF a couple months and I tried it again. Same order except I ordered a pint of Young Chow fried rice. This time both the shrimp and fries were 100% better. Not greasy at all. Shrimp were well seasoned. Very good. If you like fried shrimp, it's probably the best in town and at a very good price. They have a lunch and dinner portion. Both times I got the dinner portion and there is plenty. I was disappointed in the Young Chow fried rice. It had pork, chicken, pea pods, carrots, onions, water chestnuts, etc. Cooked properly this time but it really had no flavor at all. So now I remember why I searched out and found better Chinese food in Duluth. I grew up eating at the best places in Minneapolis. Nankin, Howard Wong's, Port Arthur, etc. so I am picky. There is much better Chinese in Duluth. There are 2 places I really like. Not quite on par with those Mpls institutions of old, but they are good and better than Chopsticks Inn. If you like fried shrimp I do recommend this place for that. It's on the American menu. Just hope you get there when their fryer oil is clean. If you want good Chinese, there are better options. A few reviews here have this place confused with Chef Yee's which used to be next to the old Pioneer Bar on west 4th St. This place is on the east end of 4th St. Chef Yee's was my other go to place when I first moved to Duluth. It no longer exists. read more

We order from here all the time, usually takeout. We ordered the other night during the coronavirus lockdown. I paid for the order over the phone to simplify pickup. My husband went to pick up our food (no curbside pickup). When he went inside there were several other people standing by the front door waiting for their order. My husband was the only one wearing a mask and one guy was coughing. Not even the employee taking orders and money wore a mask. He still had to sign the check which kind of defeats contactless pickup. The food was good but we won't be back. read more

They have the best pork fried rice! I liked how my entree was made with the sauce (general tso) on the side. I could dip the chicken (great, REAL, white meat chicken-fried) into the sauce and also pour it on the rice as well. Egg rolls were just ok, and the sesame chicken was under sauced. I'd order from here again. That fried rice was too good. read more

This was the most unrelaxing dinner out I have ever experienced. The man in the kitchen was yelling and screaming loudly the entire time we were there. I won't be eating in this establishment again. read more

$32 for 2 egg rolls... orange chicken (which was basically orange juice and sugar in a container) and chicken lo mein... go elsewhere.

I have been a regular customer here for quite some time and it's definitely the best American Chinese food north of the Twin Cities. The staff isn't always the friendliest and don't expect much in the interior decor department (although it does have its own charm), but the food is great...and seriously addicting. Be careful! read more

This was my go to Chinese food when I lived in Duluth. I typically got the mu-shu pork or shrimp, Kung pao chicken or shrimp, or general tso's take out. This place seemed to use better ingredients than most American-Chinese places I have eaten which set it apart for me. One time there was a misunderstanding with an order over the phone and they corrected it for me without any additional charge (allowing me to keep the mistaken item). For me, this is four star Chinese takeout. read more

Well, this WAS my favorite Chinese until they recently hiked their prices by 27%!!! I was going to order delivery tonight, same thing as usual, price is always $24.01. When they quoted me $30.60, I said that can't be right, and they told me that they raised prices earlier this week. I said, no thanks, and canceled my order. I understand that prices can't stay the same forever, but the food and quality is simply not worth paying 27% more. Such a bummer. read more

I was slightly worried when the cashier was literally unable to suggest any good dishes from Chopsticks. We got carry out and I'm sure it's decent American Chinese food. The general tsao's chicken was actually pretty good, everything else was meh. We got a dish of beef and snow peas and a beef chow mein which was full of celery and other veggie fillers and barely any noodles. Probably wouldn't go back there again. read more

One of the better Chinese places that I have found in Duluth. The chicken wings are really good and the Egg Foo Young is enjoyable as well. One disappointment is the egg rolls, I have had better at other places. read more

Really good Chinese fare. Ordered delivery to the hospital. Delivered directly to my room with a smile. The delivery guy was extra special, friendly. My go-to Chinese when I am in Duluth. read more

I went to Huie's Chopsticks in and had a hamburger and french fries which was really good for a Chinese restaurant!! The fries were perfect! I cannot wait to go back and try the traditional food! The service was excellent!! Wendy our server couldn't be better and the atmosphere does remind you of china. I would definitely go there again read more

This is hands down big city America Chinese food. Shrimp fried rice had more shrimp than most places I ate at. Egg Foo Yung was THICK and filling. Egg rolls tasted fresh and the egg fried rice had ginormous chunks of egg in it. This is prolly gonna be my new joint. $67 bucks fed 6 people with a TON of left overs. read more

Used to love this place. I know someone who used to work there and he told me that in the kitchen the cooks would drop their cooking utensils. Instead of replacing them or cleaning them... They would re-use them.... Off the floor. Once I heard this.... Never went back. Haven't eaten there since. read more

My meal was delicious! Stopped over from the hospital and it was extremely convenient. The food came out quickly, was a good sized portion and for a good price. The only downside is the decor on the inside. It could definitely use some updating and a remodel. But don't let that fool you, the food is great! read more

My husband received a very bad allergic reaction to the amount of MSG in his food. He ordered the combination plate with Mongolian beef. We almost had to take him to the emergency room tonight. He had difficulty breathing, tingling sensations and threw up. We do not recommend this place. read more

Working next door, I walked around and they took AMEX so I decided to eat here. I wasn't impressed with the food. Tons of rice, little of the food choice. Soup wasn't that great either, and they serve it with chow mein noodles for the "crackers". read more

Extremely uncomfortable dinner, there was constant yelling from the kitchen and our poor waitress left crying and saying she's quitting. Not to mention frozen Chinese from a grocery store tastes better. The ordeal took over an hour with only about 8 people in the whole restaurant... We probably won't be going back. read more

I think this is the best Chinese food in Duluth. The restaurant is owned by the Huie family, who have been serving Asian fare in Duluth for many decades. read more

Stop. Put down the phone. Do not wok (ha!) through that doorway. Abandon hope all ye who enter here (or order from here), this is a path of bland misery with heavy highlights of apathy. Not sure at what point the cooks here lost all hope but if defeat was a flavor than the Chopsticks Inn uses it liberally in every dish. To be clear my hopes were never high as any sort of ethnic food here is dicey. With that low bar established...this place gets a solid, richly deserved 2 star review. One of the stars is for service cause someone else took the order and didn't complain about who answered and the order seemed right.. The question you need to ask yourself is how desperate are you? The fried rice was good at first but then the old oil taste started to be more pronounced as it cooled. I had the Szechwan Chicken with the rice. It was not spicy nor was it tasty. It was red looking gloppy warm with a tough texture and an uneasy feeling bite. Just don't. I've honestly had better frozen dinners. read more

Ordered two combination dinners. Mongolian beef and young chow fried rice. These dishes were really great! Unfortunately they did forget the no onion part of this order. But it was so good the person ate it anyway with the onion in it. Kung pao chicken and s/s chicken in the other order. Kung pao was really tasty. Really nice garlicy gravy over the kung pao. I marked down stars for the SUPER dirty dining room and for not making the order right. But they gained stars for their very friendly staff and the piping hot food. read more

Have been here 4 times since discovering while visiting a relative at a nearby hospital . Was visiting Duluth and went there again today.Nearly passed up originally up as the exterior is laughingly dingy (and the interior is old. Star lost on ambience) ) but was shocked at how good the food was. VERY good egg rolls and hot and sour soup. Don't know if it's still the case but one of the (ancient) ,original, cooks from the Chinese Lantern was still working in the kitchen. This is standard but superior American Chinese food..................... They do serve a little bowl of chow-mein noodles with the hot & sour which is odd. Odder still is the comment about "instead of crackers".... This isn't clam chowder and have never seen ANYTHING served with H&S anywhere else. .In any case you don't have to add them, after all. ....Not sure where all the haters are coming from and maybe some did hit a bad day but for what it is (and price) think Chopsticks Inn is being grossly under-rated . Nice waitress who's been there forever as well. PS-Just my Dad a, myself and two parties that were clearly Chines eating there today and a steady stream of people getting take-out. PPS- It's Peking Duck :-) read more

We are regulars 50/50 eat in or take out. They have the best Egg Foo Young, just like the old Chinese Lantern. Great fried rice, soups, sweet and sour dishes, general tsao's chicken etc. Large portions, we've never been disappointed. read more

Not what we are used to at Yangs or Tom Moys in Twin Cities, didn't have much flavor.

I ordered delivery at 8:00p, and the lady on the phone said it would be 45 minutes. Called at 9:30p, and since they were closed they didn't answer. We didn't receive our food, although my card was charged. My boyfriend even drove down there to figure things out, but they wouldn't answer the door. I understand it was after hours, but we never received what I paid for. This was an extremely frustrating experience. read more
