    Chung Wah Restaurant in Chelsea MA
    Bruce K.

    Quick order Chinese in Chelsea. I got the small Shrimp Lo Mein and for $7.50, it was a decent portion. A little on the bland side and I'm not sure that all of the shrimps were completely cooked (they shouldn't be even a little transparent) but I risked it and was fine. The meal definitely needed some hot mustard to give it some kick. Small place, a few tables inside and a huge menu board.

    Lunch Special Menu (do not believe the online menu)

    I came here three times to make sure I gave them a fair shake before saying that it's not good. It's not like it's a terrible restaurant, but everything is just a bit disappointing. Will not be returning. Food taste 3/5 Food quality 3/5 $ Value (portion size) 5/5 Speed of service 5/5 Sit down option - yes Cash only - yes The flavor of most items was a bit bland; the low price reflects in the quality. I don't know quite how to explain why the meat felt cheap aside from saying that it felt like they took pre-cooked meats and put sauce on it rather than marinating meats and letting the flavor speak for itself. I didn't love the texture of the beef (beef with broccoli and beef teriyaki sticks) and the rice and lo mein didn't have that much flavor to them despite seeming to have plenty of ingredients. The Kung Po chicken was alright but was not spicy (as implied by the menu) and had a lot of veggies, not a lot of chicken. Also the new lunch special info on the website is misleading; the options are much more limited (as of Aug and Sept '22). So I was caught off guard when I arrived and realized that there wasn't really a lunch special that I wanted. As others have mentioned, the guy at the counter is very difficult to understand but I have been able to order successfully. Beef with broccoli - good flavor but somehow still not that enjoyable to eat; probably wouldn't get again. Kung Po chicken - alright, not spicy at all. wouldn't get again. #34 (lo mein, beef teriyaki, boneless spareribs, chicken fingers) - bland.

    Salt and pepper chicken wings. The best I've ever had!

    I grew up going here and love it. My favorite is the #9: General Gau's Chicken. It's very affordable as well for a big family.

They have all the standard takeout items, eggroll, spareribs, pork strips, chicken teriyaki, etc. etc. they also have some great dishes like shrimp and broccoli delight three general ground chicken punk chicken was surprised that they make a good Chinese style beef chow fun of course I order mine wet Chinatown style to do a fabulous job. I'm glad we have a local restaurant that can give me a Chinese treat without going all the way to Boston. Pricing is about average for a local Chinese joint. If you're never need some takeout, definitely check it out.

I had…read moredinner guests over to my house and I ordered three dinner plates.. as well as other side orders... I ASKED FOR EXTRA DUCK SAUCE AND EXTRA MUSTARD...... I RECEIVED TWO LITTLE MUSTARDS THAT ARE THE SIZE OF MY THUMB!!!???.. so I called back politely and asked to speak to the owner or the manager let them know what I had ORDERED.. and what I had ASKED FOR...... and the woman actually starts arguing with me saying I should count out the number of sauces that I want??!!! absolutely absurd!!!Listen to customers orders!! and respect your customers!!! The same "woman" who always answers the phone is wildly RUDE... ALWAYS! I honestly don't understand what is wrong with the owner of this establishment and why they don't SEE these reviews and do something about this woman!! I SPEND OVER $50 AND HAVE TO BE EMBARRASSED IN FRONT OF MY GUESTS BECAUSE OF A BELLIGERENT, RUDE EMPLOYEE.

    Return Sunday lunch visit, repeating three items that were good the previous time and trying two…read morenew ones. I forgot how swanky looking the place was, and that still impressed. -- Egg Rolls: Cradled in a wicker basket, crisp on the outside, celery, and pork on the inside, a bit dry, but good flavor. A little above average. -- Spare Ribs on the bone: Painted on every surface with a nice char to complement the glaze. A thicker cut than most. Just like last time, they looked like a reheat, but still had very good texture (tender, moist) and decent enough flavor. Above average. -- Pork Egg Foo Yong: A trio of thick patties flooded with light brown sauce. Good crispness underneath. Soft and tender with big chunks of pork that wasn't dried out. Good overall flavor from the fry, the onions, and the pork, as well as the sauce. Near-elite to elite. -- Kung Pao Chicken: A little different here, with much larger shreds of chicken, a little darker than most, less celery and peanuts than most, a profusion of peppers, and pleasing spiciness to the soy-based sauce. Very enjoyable. Above average to well above average. -- Peking Noodles: A little different, and in a good way. More of a fine shred than a crumble, much spicier, and a little gloppier. Good feel to the egg noodles. I don't get this dish often enough to compare, but I enjoyed it. No OMG moments, but no complaints. Solid lunch, flavorful entrees, and I departed with a higher opinion than before. Upping to 4 stars.

    Dined at the Medford location last night and was pleasantly surprised …read more.. After a horrendous experience at thier Everett location a few years ago ( check my review ) , I was a little hesitant to try thier new location. And though it wasnt without a couple of hiccups , Im giving the new location a solid 4 stars ! The new location is immaculate and seemingly newly renovated ! The wood floors were gleaming , the open space was very well kept and even the bathroom was clean / orderly ! We ordered the pu pu platter for 2 , pineapple fried rice ( presented in an actual pineaple split in half ) , sesame beef and the food was exdellant !! So why only 4 stars .... Well , I wasnt crazy about the hot and sour soup. I expressed my displeasire to our waitress. She apogized and took it away ( yet it still wound up on our bill) . In thier defense, I'd taken a few sips of the soup and it was only $6 bucks so I let it go . Further, our drink orders took awhile to get to our table ( but once I again I gave them a pass because it WAS busy evening . Im mentioning these things now because they took away from our experience . In closing ( and despite those hiccups ) I'll be back and I encourage you to check it out too !
