Very bland, overpriced Chinese food. My husband's sweet and sour shrimp was tough and rubbery from being overcooked. The crab Rangoon didn't have any discernible crab taste. The mu shu pork was edible but that is faint praise. We won't ever go back. read more

We were overjoyed to find this restaurant so close to our new home. It's beautiful and we really had high hopes. Unfortunately, the food was really not good at all. It's greasy and bland. But, I will say that when we order take out from this restaurant it doesn't taste the same. It actually tastes good. I don't understand it and I really hope they get their act together because there are not enough good Chinese restaurants in the area. read more

The BEST Chinese food in Westchester!!! The boneless spare ribs are to die for as well as the cold noodles. The staff is always a pleasure.

Warning. The food is horrible and very expensive. Stay away no matter what. The delivery guy had the nerve to say, what about my tip when getting paid. How rude. Fyi, I never heard back from them. Clearly, they do not care about their customers. read more

Overpriced, underspiced, and noisy as a train station.

Terrible. The worst Chinese food. Period. Nice from outside and plenty of parking, but the food is real bad. We had lo main ( overcooked yesterday leftovers), orange chicken (not chewable), fried dumplings ( bad old taste, left almost untouched). No flavor at all. The cheapest take out place would be better. Never again. read more

Amazing Chinese-American cuisine. Plus, if you know the authentic Chinese dishes and request them, they will make them for you! They give you a lot of food for your money and have healthy/vegetarian options. The staff is polite and friendly and the restaurant has a great atmosphere. Whether take-out or dining in, David Chen's is a delicious choice. read more

The best Chinese food I've ever had in my entire life. I moved away from armonk and whenever I go back I make a trip just to eat here. I would recommend it to anyone. Try it out. AMAZING. read more

Best Chinese food in Northern Westchester. I have been ordering delivery for over 15 years. Their Hunan Chicken is terrific and inexpensive. General's Cho Chicken and Thai Garlic Chicken are outstanding. Don't bother with the fried shrimp, their regular shrimp (in any dish) are big and succulent, some of the best cooked shrimp I've ever had. Wonton and Hot & Sour(too much tofu) are also must haves, and their egg rolls are the best I ever had. read more

way downhill. from great to garbage in record time. bad, salty food. poor quality ingredients. take out quality. not worthy of Armonk. grade F! read more

Terrible, terrible, awful food. I joined Yelp just so I could review this place. Don't come here if you want AUTHENTIC Chinese food. This place is an insult to Chinese food and to Chinese people. That being said, I ordered a General Tso's chicken and pork fried rice here once, and those were good. Basically, this place is only good for Americanized Chinese food. But don't come here if you're looking for the real deal. read more

My daughter wanted to celebrate her birthday w a meal at David Chen's... we had remembered it for tasty food and good service. What we found upon this visit was a tired looking interior, somewhat short on help, and then the wonderful food... not so great this evening. Just okay, in fact. Food was flavorless, we ordered 3 different entrees, the best was the pad Thai, and still a disappointment. I had hoped other reviewers were being overly critical - lesson learned. The wait staff was fairly attentive, but everyone was chipping in to help out. Won't go back. read more

I've been eating and ordering from here for 20+ years. I have generally found the food and service to be pretty good and it used to be my go to place. However, the food isnt quite as amazing as it used to be as I think it is now a tougher comparison with a lot of the fresh / health food focused restaurant fare that is available. I still like it but I think they need to update with the times with less frying and lighter sauces. read more

Beautiful and very traditional decor with great service and good American Chinese food. Large portions.

Friendly service which is rare for a Chinese Restaurant. Food is very good. Better than most NYC Chinese Restaurants.

Loved this restaurant. Was there during the week for lunch. The food was delicious & the service was excellent. The lunch specials are an amazing value. Will definitely be back. read more

The food was good,service laughable.Older waiters,servers who could not speak English,decor fun ,reminiscent of old style Chinese restaurants.Something is off about this place,oh and a Diet Coke was 5.00!No graciousness at all,and it was a slow Monday night! read more

We went for the first time to David Chen. I saw all the negative reviews, but for my first visit here I found this restaurant to be a solid three stars. Service was quick and friendly. Food was tasty and fresh, although not mind blowing. I also appreciated the easy parking. We went during lunch and found the prices reasonable. Definitely worth a visit. read more

This is really good Chinese food...not just for Westchester County but in general. Especially love the moo shu pork.

My family has tried ordering from here a few times over the past year and every time they have forgotten part of our order. And despite what they say when you call back if you are missing someone's food, don't expect them to bring it any time soon. Not worth the disappointing service. read more

This place has a good rep in Westchester but I have been here a few times over the last ten years and don't get it. The food is really mediocre and I can only think that people that rave about it haven't had less than mediocre Chinese food! The noodles were overly thick and the dumplings were overly large - neither had much taste. I'd recommend going somewhere else for Chinese! read more

i order takeout from here about once a week. The food is always good. Yes, some dishes are better than others but if you find a couple you like they are very consistent. I pickup my own food and it is usually ready within 15 minutes from when I order. read more

Great food and service. The lo mein was very delicious and as well as the fried rice and the staff was very nice.

We only use for take out. Food is consistent and usually very good. One of the better oriental restaurants in the the area. However, it's always an ordeal placing an order. The person who usually takes the order over the phone is always curt. Very unfriendly and difficult to understand. She's the same in person when you pick up. Acts as if she's doing you a favor. Were it not for this lack of congeniality, I would have rated them higher. read more

This is the 2nd time I've ordered for take-out while AT the restaurant (didn't phone it in first)....when I calculated what the total should be using my phone's calculator....it was off the first time.....I chalked it up to bad calculation....a few months later, tried it the same way....by going there in person and providing my order....this time the bill was 11 dollars over what I calculated....even with tax. Either their menu prices are incorrect/old, or I am being cheated (shame on me...twice). Too bad Northern Westchester only has this sit-down establishment to dine at when you are hunkering for Chinese food....we have those "fast food" take out style places but I refuse to go there (in part b/c they cannot make anything gluten free). BEWARE if you are ordering WHILE at the restaurant.....to satisfy myself...the next time we do order....I will order over the phone (and tally on my end)....then ask them how much? and if there's a discrepancy, I'll have to say something.....of course, either way, if I end up going there in person and placing order in person for take-out, I'll still stay something.....anyone else experience this? read more

Nothing special, Nothing to say "Wow" i want to go back. We only go there because there is no other choice. Also, they are still using MSG - now that says a lot if you understand how to flavor food. read more

Food is decent. You got good bang for your buck. The portions are very big. Service is slow but food came out quick. Lacked flavor in half of our dishes. Would go back but not impressed read more

Curt phone service for take-out order. Had difficulty understanding my order. Rushed service at pickup. Cold sesame noodles and lo-mein were solid lumps; noodles dry as a bone and hard to separate. Far from "Best of Westchester." read more

One of, if not the, best Chinese restaurants in all of Westchester. Recommendations include the sesame noodles and dumplings for appetizers, and Paradise Shrimp, the Umbrella, and Three Amigo for the main course. read more

Eat at your own risk - I bit down on something hard and chipped a tooth. The next day, two of us had stomach aches. They must not wash their food properly. I had heard other people in the past say that the food there had upset their stomachs as well. I will definitely not set foot in David Chens again. PS - despite the fact that two women witnessed the event the restaurant still refused to pay my dental bill. So much for the saying that the customer is always right. read more

Try the chicken shrimp eggplant. Very good. Excellent service. Nice decor. Traditional look.

I have been to a LOT of restaurants and heard from locals that David Chen is the place to go. Well they were wrong it's not the place to go. We went on Thursday evening and very few people there at that time. Food was ok. The Sizzling clay pot was great, the Shrimp and walnuts was ok but no flavor, the Sesame Chicken was over cooked, dried out and hard to chew. Waiter service was sub standard; I asked three time for chop sticks and we waited for 10 minutes for him to clear the plates when we finished eating. At the end of the meal we compared prices from their take out dinner menu versus our bill and everything was about $2.00 more per plate. When I asked the lady behind the bar regarding this, her answer was "Yes each plate is more since we have to clean dishes, forks, knives and clean the table cloth. Take out is cheaper since the food just goes into a container". WTF ? you gotta be kidding. Well this was the first and last visit. Wish I read the review from two weeks ago where there was a coach roach in their take home bag. read more

these folks are horrible. can barely speak english. they will all yes you till death as opposed to saying i dont understand. then you end up with a screwed up order. then u call back and they argue with you about what u ordered. smh. their solution, go back to restaurant on a delivery. wow. read more
