    Chicken Pan Fried Noodles
    Lisa C.

    Got take out one night after work. Was good (not great), but I would go back and try something else. Egg rolls were included with an online order of a certain amount so check the website!

    Fried rice
    Gia B.

    I always like this place and I recommend this place when people ask for good Chinese but today I ordered a dinner combo and when I got home to enjoy the good food... the rice was all bad, it's like they over fried some of the rice or mixed with old dryer fried rice! I tried to eat it like this but it was so dry I couldn't.

    Small Beef Lo Mein
    Aimee S.

    First time coming here on a curbside pickup and it was phenomenal! Hands down the best chinese restaurant in the area. Lunch/Dinner are a bargain! I Ordered hot/spicy shredded beef combo comes with drink and egg roll, small beef Lo mein , and House Special Noodles soup. Although, I think I will not order the soup again. Wasn't a bad taste , but no taste of anything just lots of vegetables, and no noodles??? I will definitely be back any try other entrees. Btw! Fried rice is absolutely tasteful! Perfect. Not too salty or greasy. The vegetables was fresh and quality is A++. I'm very impressed with this place.

    Vegetable Delight

    We've been ordering from Fortune House for a couple of years now and it used to be sort of hit or miss but over time it's been pretty consistently a big miss. My son always orders General Taos chicken and it's often so dry and hard it's inedible. I ordered the veggie delight and there had to be chunks of at least 3 whole bell peppers I picked out. It was HALF bell pepper. Who wants to sit down to a meal of bell pepper? Too often they forget to provide sauces for the dishes and we always do pick up so it's a huge hassle to have to back for a sauce. The past 2 times we've ordered from here we've ended up with a couple of days digestive distress and tossed out all the leftovers. I can't recommend this place to anyone in good faith.

    I think this was supposed to be a potsticker

    I was a super fan of the Schaumburg location. Now we are closer to Elgin. We ordered a while back & the food was different. Dry. The potstickers which were our favorite were sus. We reordered then they should be called under cooked dough balls Gave them another chance last night. Thanks for reminding me why we stopped ordering. Do better. We were long time customers.

    Egg roll that comes with lunch
    Stephanie S.

    This place is just ok. I've been here a few times just because it's close to my house. I usually get sweet and sour pork which is hard to mess up and my only complaint about it is that it's usually overcooked. Still not terrible. Today I tried the sesame chicken lunch special. It's a very generous portion for 7.25. But I just didn't like the way they made it. The kind of sesame chicken that I like from other places uses dark meat chicken with a light breading and fried. This was dry cubes of chicken breast with a thick battered coating like you would get with sweet and sour pork. The kind that the entire breading falls all as soon as you stick your fork in it. I was just pretty disappointed. I will never order that again. I do like their hot and sour soup and the fried rice was pretty good. I wish it had egg in it though. I also got bbq spare ribs and, though they were pretty tasty, they were also a bit overcooked and tough, with not much meat on the bones. And with a price of almost $7 I felt like I was ripped off a bit. It seems like I'm just complaining here but it's not totally disgusting. I'm sure I'll be back when I have a hankering for some overcooked s&s pork and don't feel like driving far or taking a gamble on an unknown place.

    Huge portions!

    Food was delicious and they accommodated my special requests. Food was hot. They delivered quicker than their estimated time.

    The lunch special here is legit and really inexpensive! The general Tso's chicken with fried rice is honestly enough to feed two grown men!

    Just really bad food. They add wayyy too much salt and sugar to every dish. Typical chinese fast food at its worst!

The heat is layered and intentional, and even the small detail of the hot pepper garden behind the restaurant adds to the sense that the kitchen genuinely cares about its craft. The only hesitation is the pricing, which trends noticeably high. Still, when the food carries this much flavor and character, it's easier to understand where the value comes from.

This spot is not much for ambience inside or outside but on the day of my visit they had brisk takeout and the dining room was packed...real quick. I'm sure a lot of folks go here for the Chinese menu items but I was there for the Lao goodies! They did not disappoint! We had the fried meat balls; a mixed app plate with chicken wings, Lao sausage, and beef jerky; lap beef; and a healthy serving of sticky rice (ok maybe we had 2 to sop up the lap beef). Flavors were on point. Medium spice had us excited and rolling at the same time as it got spicier throughout the meal for the lap...but it was so good! I can't wait to go back and try more! Service was friendly and attentive. Parking was easy since they have their own lot.

The egg rolls were fried to perfection. A good crunch. Filled with cabbage and shrimp, they had a smoky flavor to them. I like my egg rolls a little on the sweet side made with peanut sauce, so I didn't really enjoy mine, but my spouse said he liked them. The BBQ pork fried rice was delicious. It had tons of pork in it and a noticable amount of egg and bean sprouts. I loved it. Super spot on. Seasame chicken was alright. The chicken is tender with a bit of crunch to it even while saucy. It tasted a little sweet for me, but the seasame flavor was great. The beef and broccoli was good. I felt like it needed a little bit more salt, but everything else was good. The broccoli wasn't overcooked and the beef didn't feel fake. I also loved the water chestnuts. Most places I've been to overload the beef and broccoli with onions and I didn't get that here, so I liked this. Overall, pretty nice place, the atmosphere was clean when I walked into the restaurant to pick up my order, the cashier was very friendly. I'm doing to try out a few more Chinese restaurants around the area, but Chan's seems like it'll be one of my go-to places.
