.We love Chinese food, but it's been hard to find authentic halal options nearby. We've passed Hunan Cafe many times, but when we suddenly noticed a Halal sign, we decided to give it a try--and we absolutely do not regret it. This place is a hidden gem. It's small but clean, with friendly service and excellent food quality. Prices are what you'd expect for the area, but a big plus is that there's easy parking. Most importantly, the food tasted genuinely authentic. The vegetables and meat had that perfect crunch--fresh, well-cooked, and flavorful without being heavy or greasy. Everything was so tender it barely needed chewing. We ordered the crispy beef, Singapore rice (I think!), and a few other dishes, and everything was spot on. Highly recommended, especially if you're looking for authentic halal Chinese food. We'll definitely be back. read more

Usually this place has good food at reasonable prices. I should have known to stick to the basics and the dishes which usually hit the spot. I tried something new, their "Thai" D Drunken noodle with Hala Beef. I mean it tasted fine. But it was actually Chow-fun with some jalapenos & basil thrown in with some bell peppers for color. The beef was tender and good. BUT where's the spicy, sweet, salty, sour & thai basil flavor? This had none of that. No fish sauce. No palm sugar. No thai chili peppers. No Thai basil. It was basically stir -fried wide noodles with some veg. It wasn't even spicy. $16.50!!! Please stick to just Chinese/Chinese-American food and leave the Thai food to the Thai people. Fried rice and crab rangoon were good. read more

If you're looking for good Chinese takeout, I recommend heading over to Hunan Cafe. I went yesterday evening and got beef lo-mein. Prices are reasonable depending on what you get. If you're going after dark, I recommend going with a group or parking right by the door because the area can be a bit dicey. read more

They have changed owners and can't vouch for this place anymore. Prices seem really high for what it is...

Good spot to eat food is fresh and customer service is awesome I highly recommend to check it out

This is my favorite Chinese takeout place,just for midweek dinner,when you are tired and want solid meal. Delivery is hit or miss,because of Uber of DoorDash issues,but food itself is really good. Shrimp and vegetables dish is packed with large juicy shrimp,vegetables are nicely cooked. They use mushrooms,squash and asparagus,those are nice. They are attentive to any adjustments and sauce is not overly salty,like in many Chinese restaurants. So,if you are in McLean area,highly recommended to give them a try! read more

i'm gonna keep it real the food nasty as fuck this that yt type food i never bought food and the batter taste old the rice was nasty and all..... the restaurant too little.......... !!!!!!!!!!!! i literally threw that shit away soon as i took a bite of the food after 13/hours at work and wanted a decent meal nopeeeeee!!!! be happy i didn't throw it out the window as i was driving do not get this shit or any chinese food in va thats not hibachi dont fucking eat it read more

Delivery was late. Call restaurant and the said the drive was two blacks away from picking up. Still not shown, 2nd call the restaurant really could have cared less. Now over 50 minutes late. Dumplings were cold and looked day old. Kung pao chicken was under sauced and cold. Sezuan Sprimp, shrimp was overcooked and yes cold. On my second call I was assured the food would arrived hot and they would compensate. Well that has not happened. We will NEVER order from them again. read more

The staff was pleasant. I ordered and my order was ready a little ahead of schedule. The inside of the red had a small number of tables; however, on this evening I did take out . The portions were average. The appetizers of spring rolls and crab Rangoon were quite dough forward. Not something I'd order again. We had a spicy chicken dish and it was predominantly celery and carrots. While the veggies seemed fresh and crisp, we'd asked for a small quantity of these vegetables. There was a small amount of chicken in our entree. The crispy beef was slightly spicy and sweet and overall it was our preferred dish from our order. The Szechuan green beans which is usually our staples for all Chinese restaurants was a disappointing. However I don't think take out is ever the best way to judge a restaurant's food. At any rate, overall I'd say this place is perfectly fine in terms of Carry out. Our food was very hot. Prepared hot and fresh however it just didn't suit our pallets. If you're looking for authentic Chinese, then this is not your place. If you're looking for non-authentic, then this might be your place. Again. Kind and pleasant service. Fast made to order read more

a friend of mine received their menu in the mail and they had my favorite dish so we decided to stop by. our experience was swift and friendly! we were given our food not long after ordering and we decided to dine in. The interior is clean and sleek and the workers were super friendly on our way in and out. Would definitely recommend. We got the General Tso's Tofu, extra spicy :) read more

I recently ordered pickup from here and was very pleased with what I received. My order was ready within 15 minutes and everything came out hot and tasted fresh. The spring rolls were a nice, cheap starter option. They were crispy with really good flavor. The sesame chicken was tender on the inside and with the right amount of crunch on the outside with a healthy ladling of sauce and some nicely cooked broccoli. Nothing extraordinary, but if you're looking for a new go-to takeout Chinese spot, I would highly recommend trying! read more

Halal Hunan Cafe Tyson - Sesame Chicken with white rice; Spring rolls - Chinese Near Me - Vienna, Virginia

Walked in during a car inspection... and I hit the jackpot when I found this hidden gem! THE BEST DEAL IN TYSONS CORNER IS THEIR LUNCH SPECIAL. For under $10 you get a huge portion of fried rice, your choice one of one of many entrees (I like the beef and broccoli), and a spring roll. The spring roll is absolutely amazing each time, as good as you can get. I've never had anything here that wasn't perfectly executed, savory, well cooked, and well seasoned. I was expecting average, mass produced Chinese when I first walked in for a quick bite, but their food tastes far beyond average. I'd put their food up against any $30 / entree sit down Chinese place in the area. I now get deliver their food delivered often, and when I stop in, the employees (family owned) are as nice as can be. I'll be a regular and a strong supporter, I have no doubt they'll continue to deliver great food and great service. We are lucky to have them nearby! read more

Really enjoyed trying this modern Chinese spot! I ordered the chicken & broccoli and added beef. This dish was very fresh and flavorful and had a great vegetable-to-meat ratio. I heard their employees are working with local non-profits to give back to the community and frontline workers, which is awesome. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to ordering again in the future. read more

no, recommend it, they don't care about the customers health today. I order shrimp with broccoli all the broccoli was rotten but I didn't realize it because of the sauce, which is dark, but I fell something stranger when I eating it, and then I notice that the broccoli was rotten I got diarrhea and headache I will report to the consumer department also the health department to protect the customer. read more

Seriously!? I'm giving 5 stars for a Chinese takeout place? Aren't these takeout variety of restaurants often ones that are cheap, using sub par ingredients and plenty of msg? Not this one! Outstanding service and the food is incredibly fresh. The veggies and meat, seafood are always fresh. I've now tried several different dishes here. Some standouts are the cashew chicken, twice cooked pork, chow fun dishes, fried rice, triple delight. They also have some very generous coupons available: eg a generous portion of excellent crab rangoons if you spend $30; free chicken fried rice if you spend $40; chicken pad Thai for $50 or a free general Tso's chicken if you spend $60. The portions are enormous!! Finally...no msg! I can't recommend them enough read more

The Chinese food is definitely below average and not as good as china express. We ordered a rice noodle which had no flavor. read more

Pepper steak was good. Plenty of beef and fresh bell peppers and onion. Pork fried rice had plenty of pork and rice was fried perfectly. I will try other items on the menu next time. read more

The food was great. This was my family's first time trying this restaurant. We ordered takeout and food was ready on time. We had the broccoli beef, the kung pao chicken. They were delicious. read more

The dumplings aren't great. But the rest of my order was so wonderful I didn't care. I got a spring roll with a side of sweet and sour sauce, crispy beef and pan fried noodles. Everything was fantastic. The food arrive exactly as I ordered it, it was piping hot and tastes amazing! The meat in the pan fried noodles is so tender it's unbelievable. I have a new favorite restaurant. read more

I've pick up food from Shamshiri express many times and last time I saw Hunan Cafes menu next door and just ordered today for dinner delivery and just had my food. It is the BEST Chinese food I've had in a long time around here. Usually beef dishes come with mystery meat but not at Hunan Cafe, it was like they got fresh steak Today andcut and stir fried it. Same with the vegetables the soup and the egg rolls. Outstanding meal very good service and prompt delivery. This is my new forever Chinese food take out delivery in Tysons. I highly recommend them. Can't wait to try more dishes. Another great meal with speedy delivery from Hunan Cafe. A lightening 12:46 mins from hang up to door-bell-ring. Loved the crispy noodles with beef chicken and shrimp and the H&S soup was not too salty like every other place. I tried adding a review but my only option was updating my last one. So 5 more stars! read more

best chinese food in are. tysons mclean. great service great people very polite. thank you

Great little hidden gem. Was very surprised by the food. Thought it was just another fast food joint by the looks. Food portions were more than expected for price. And the food was fresh and hot. read more

Ordered the Twice Cooked Pork Lunch Special. The egg roll that came with it was not good. A lot of vegtables and very greasy. The Fried Rice was good as a side dish but the Twice Cooked Pork was okay. It didn't have that strong flavor or that fatty melt in your mouth texture that comes with pork belly. The vegtables with the pork belly was okay, nothing special. Given that the lunch special is $9, it's good value but the flavor and taste isn't the best. read more

I'm thoroughly surprised how good the food was. We ordered via Uber and got spring rolls, chicken with broccoli, pepper steak with onions, and fried rice with chicken. All of the food was delicious! On top of that, they did not skimp on the protein, which was a surprise. Highly recommend!! read more

Have eaten takeout from here several times since it opened last month. Super health and great value for vegans. Steamed veggies with brown rice and steamed tofu, no oil, with tasty brown sauce. $15 and can be eaten by two people. Awesome, a new staple for me. read more

Hunan Cafe is in the same area as China Express and is pretty new. You can tell the food is much fresher than a typical take out place. We enjoy the dishes a lot especially as a healthier alternative - they're a lighter, home cooked style that you don't feel guilty about eating more often as opposed to other places where the food is saucier/heavier. China Express is our favorite to satisfy a Chinese food craving, but this is your spot if you're looking for healthier Chinese take out. read more

Happened to stop by this place while on my way back to work and decided to give them a try. I ordered their Hunan Shrimp and General Tso's Tofu. Their shrimp was large and numerous and had a healthy portion of hand cut vegetables. The General Tso's Tofu was on the sweeter end so I will likely ask for less sauce next time around. Overall, I am happy to see them open and hope they do well. It's a tough time for a lot of family businesses and they were very sweet and easy to talk with. Hope everyone is safe and well during these difficult times. read more

Excellent food and service and you can always ask for more fortune cookies. I live 5 minutes away and my food always ready when I get there. The good portions and great quality....my favorites are....Chicken with Broccoli....Garlic Chicken and Beef with Green Beans.... read more

I had order here multiple times during my lunch break at school. I enjoy the food always fresh and hot

FRESH, FRESH, FRESH!!!! The vegetables in the dishes are not frozen, every single thing is fresh! Delicious! Wow! The Chicken with Cashews is excellent and so is the Pepper Steak. We just can't get over how fresh everything is! Everything is delicious, even the fried items are fresh. You know how a lot of times fried items can have a slightly rancid taste? Not in this case! The fryer oil was obviously clean and fresh. Every dish was delightful. Wow, we'll be back, often! read more

Just picked up flat noodles with beef, mei fun rice noodles with shrimp, orange beef, and green beans. All were excellent. They use lots of fresh ingredients in each, including generous pieces of beef, shrimp, and lots of veggies. read more

Wanted to try this place couple times before I posted a review. 1st time I got Kung pao chicken lunch special. It's a bit different than other places. Chicken is a crispy which was very good. Not a lot of peanuts which was great and Lots of fresh veggies. If you like your Chinese food very saucy and full of msg, this place is not for you. I tried the twice cooked pork 2nd time and pretty much same. Full of fresh vegetables and spring roll was better than 1st time. read more

Food tasted horrible. All of the noodle dishes tasted like they use the same sauce on everything. The general tso chicken tasted like orange chicken. The service is horrible. I wasted $50 and as me and my daughter walked out, one of the workers follows me and accuses me of not paying because she didn't see my receipt. Of course she didn't because our waitress took the receipt, that's how it works, I sign it and leave it. She yells at us and tries to get us to go back inside. I refuse because that is an issue between you and our server. read more

This place is horrible, after going home to order my food I was forced to come back to get my orders right when I came back I was ready kick this kids ass usually I am very forgiving but as a cashier and the face of this horrible place he was very condescending in the beginning that's why I could not stand that he got my order wrong after confronting him scared as he was started to make up lies and came back with my order that I asked for in the beginning read more

Halal Hunan Cafe Tyson - the front of the restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Vienna, Virginia

Over the past few months I have ordered "Chinese" (actually, Americanized Chinese) food for lunch MANY times from several different Chinese restaurants in the Tysons/Vienna/Oakton area, and today I am going to review several of them, so you can check out all of these reviews to see my conclusions. I have done takeout from this restaurant several times now, and after comparing it with many other places in the area, I believe they offer the best bang for the buck, at least when it comes to lunch. For one thing, their lunch portions are very large - I always get two meals from one order. For another, the quality of the ingredients is high. For example, they clearly use premium breast meat for their sweet and sour chicken - which is one of my favorite items on their menu. And the fried rice is the best in the area, IMO. Bottom line: delicious food in large quantities for low prices. Negatives? Just a couple - and no biggies. I wish their egg roll was a bit larger. It is a little bit smaller than some others in the area. Also, one time - but only one time - I got a piece of chicken with a huge (and I mean huge) piece of cartilage. That should not happen, but since it was only one time and only one piece, I think that can be overlooked. Bottom line is that after months of comparisons, and based on several meals, I rank them the best value in Chinese food in the Tysons/Vienna/Oakton area, at least for lunch takeout. Highly recommended. And check out my other reviews today of other Chinese restaurants in the area. read more

Fresh, affordable, quick Chinese take-out. Love the modern look to the place.

Nice selection of dishes. Good portion sizes. Tasted fresh. Only negative: no peking duck
