General tso's chicken was delicious probably best in the area. Big chunks of white chicken with light breading and a delicious spicy sauce. Reasonably priced. read more

I have been to this place several times. Staffs are friendly, foods are good. However, they got a new manager, Mark, who is extremely terrible! Very rude! I wait my food for an hour. Finally decided ask them after all people came after me got their food! I asked nicely, but Mark is very rough and did not give me any explain! I feel very sorry they get a manager like him. I will tell all my friend do not go here. We should not pay money to make our unhappy!Terrible!!!!!! read more

The best Chinese food i have ever had- and so authentic too! I am obsessed with the cold sesame noodles. I know this place is famous for its spicy food, but there are a lot of amazing dishes you can get for people who do not have a high spice tolerance..like me! The service was great and I got it quickly after I ordered. My server was a middle aged woman who was really nice and gave us great advice on what to order. Thanks Han Dynasty! read more

I decided to do a uey and check Han on a half empty stomach. I wouldn't have except Shirley and Pascal raved about it, and it happened to be on the way to the hotel. Thank you yelp for almost introducing me to the backseat of a Kia, by the wayside. Let me start off by saying that going solo at a Chinese resto is not recommended, unless you like two pounds of one thing. So, I had to whip out the ol yardstick...aaaaahh! Dan Dan noodle, that is. My next choice had to be intriguing, unique, and spicy. I went with the house tofu after the owner's reassurance. With that said, I guess I'm my Chineseness is dwindling, since tripe and pork don't float the boat much anymore. Anyway, to shorten the story, the Dan Dan was a 6/10. Peter chang's is the best I've ever had, and this was much less pungent. Where changs has the fiery red chili covered noodles and copious amounts of peppercorn, this version lacked a bit of vibrance and bite. the house tofu? good, squeaky good, but nothing to write home about...except for the abundance of my favorite alliaceae. oh yeah! read more

Food is really good, but the service is ehh...very slow if the restaurant is a little busy. Only go if you have the time.

Went for lunch with a colleague. Had the dry hot chicken. It was some kind of overly deep fried pieces of something, for lack of a better word. I didn't see much chicken, if any. It could have been deep fried pieces of chicken fat, for all I know. It had a decent enough hot peppery taste but what was in that fry I don't know. The egg roll came out cold on the inside, The won ton soup consisted of 2 won ton's in a light broth. Overall, I do not know how they made the CNN top picks, unless it was for their Philly location and they used that to franchise or extend to some strip mall in Exton. read more

'Han Dynasty' at Exton is the worst restaurant I ever had visited in my life. My family and my friend's family went to this place for a lunch last week. I am very reluctant to go to an unfamiliar restaurant; however, after reading reviews like 'Han Dynasty' as one of the top fifty Chinese restaurant, I thought I give a try. We went on a Saturday afternoon; there were only one other customer in the restaurant at 1 PM. I thought in my mind that a top fifty restaurant should have more than one customer on a Saturday. The place was not clean to be in the top 50. We were seated at one of the tables as soon as we arrived the restaurant. We were so hungry; we were ready to place our orders right away. We thought that since the place was almost empty, we wouldn't have to wait for too long. Wrong !!! We were waiting and waiting expecting somebody to show up, but our wait was in vein. There were five or six employees (almost same as the number of customers) in the dining room busy with doing other things. One male and female employee were in one end of the dining area cutting green beans; one of the employee was rolling the silverware in napkins, and others were walking back and forth in the room. But nobody was paying any attention to six of us sitting at the table. We waited patiently for 45 minutes hoping that somebody would show up eventually. At the end, we decided to leave. As we were leaving, we stopped at the front desk and told the guy at the desk that we are leaving because nobody came to our table. He didn't even pay any attention to what we were saying. Seems like he was busy with calculating the day's collection, Ha, Ha. Then I thought how could this place be in the top 50 list, the only logical explanation that I could think of was that the ranking could be from the bottom of the list. Afterwards, we went to Chili's and had a great time; good customer service and good food. I won't recommend this place to anybody. Waste of time. The one star I gave was because I had to choose at least a star to post my review. NO STAR FOR YOU !!! read more

My parents always eat here. The food is very good but the service not so much sometimes. The sea bass is probably the best thing on the menu. And the pancakes. Try the chinese pancakes. read more

If you dont mind a miserable nasty waitress/hostess potentially taking care you.. Then its a go. Walked in at 830 when they were supposed to be open till 930. Nasty woman told us we cant be seated. Offered take out. Ordered over $45.00. 5 min later she tells me there is no soup for which i had ordered. Tried to replace soup with something else. Didnt want. She wouldnt give back the $3.50. I asked for dumplings. She gawked that i had ordered $5 item when she inly owes me 3.50. Owners' cousin came by and told me not to worry about it. She proceeded to make me feel as if she was dojng me a favor. Bitchy attitude and service. Voided sale. Wont go back. Her name is kiki. Be aware. Too bad they have good food, but poor nasty workers at front. read more

This is one of the best Chinese restaurants that I have ever been to. It is no wonder that it is on CNN's Top 50 Chinese Restaurants. The staff there is ok, they are not great with English but let me tell you, the food more than makes up for it. The chicken is one of the best things you could ever put in your mouth. I don't ever really know how to describe it. Also, the broccoli is the perfect combination of sweet, and crunchy, and spicy. The General Tso's is a little spicy but it is still very very good. The sesame chicken is also very good, although it is a little sweet. Finally, the Mongolian beef is just excellent. This is a very close second to the chicken from the chicken and broccoli. It is a great mix of spicy and sweet and it creates a mouthwatering combination! If you live in Exton or West Chester I highly recommend Han Dynasty for your next Chinese dinner. read more

Extremely pathetic service. Waited during lunch time for over 45 minutes and absolutely no waiter around. Never would say it but restaurant is racist as experienced by 2 different tables. Seems to bring orders out for Asians in random order of arrival. Worst service would never visit and advice folks to avoid it read more

The one star is for the service. I couldn't tell you about the food because it never came. My friend and I took our kids here on a Friday night for dinner. Although when we were seated the restaurant was not very crowded (plenty of open tables), it took over 15 minutes for the waiter to take our order and then that was it. After 40 additional minutes we left without getting our food. We asked our waiter twice for our food or an update, and got nothing. We asked for rice and got nothing. read more

The food was awesome! The service has to be stepped up. They were friendly, but once they took our order that was the last we seen of them. The portions are small for the price. read more

I can say we have been coming to Han D. for the past 7 years or so and have been very happy with our meals . We like the Americanized menu they serve and the food is better than the other Chinese restaurants in the area . They do not get a 5 as I agree with other posters that each of the few employees have way too many hats to wear. At times I have to get up to hail a waitstaff member rushing by to get their attention for a question or water refill. Hire more staff during busy times ! read more

We tried Han Dynasty for the first time last night. I can't say how disappointed we were with the food. The fried dumplings were flavorless and overly doughy. The Dan Dan noodles were very very gummy. The wontons in the wonton soup were falling apart and the filling lacked flavor. The egg rolls barely had any filling in them, and what was there was tasteless. Not to be completely negative, the sesame chicken had decent flavor, but was a very small portion and the chicken was dry. Maybe there are other menu items that are better, but I expect a place that was Zagat rated to be able to execute everything on their menu well. We ended up throwing most of it away. I would have enjoyed a $.50 cup of ramen soup more. Do yourself a favor and keep driving past this place. read more

I went to pick up dinner on my way home. This was some of the worst chinese food we have ever eaten. The lo mein was garlicky noodles with no sauce and a very small amount of vegetables and meat. The eggplant was swimming in oil. read more

Good food but absolutely terrible service lately. We were only the second table there for lunch and it took 10 minutes to take out order. 3 of us got combos and our soups all came out at different times. Then it was 7 minutes between the first entree and the last entree arriving. We asked for sugar for our tea numerous times but never got it. Asked for more rice and it took almost 5 minutes. The service there has been going downhill as of late and this was the last straw. read more

I don't care how many awards you've received or what Zagat says about your restaurant but next time a customer orders take out noodles and asks for a paper plate please give it to them. Buy in bulk at Walmart and save some money. read more

We went here for a birthday party and had a private room. The orders were all messed up, waiters were awful and the experience was terrible. Ruined the night. Won't go here again. Food was just "ok" but overshadowed by the awful experience. Wouldn't recommend. read more

I crave the hunan shrimp and steamed dumplings here. I actually love them so much I never get anything else, but maybe one of these I'll venture out of my comfort zone. I love this place because there is almost never a wait, I can go with my family, or even go sit by myself and sip tea and eat my delicious dinner without feeling awkward eating alone. I think it is reasonably priced and I'll keep going back! read more

Delicious, authentic and spicy! Decore nothing to write home about, but the food here is great. My family and I regularly drive 45 mins each way for the food here. It's by far the best Chinese food in the Philadelphia area outside of Chinatown. read more

A diamond in the rough filled with general tsos. The authentic chinese cuisine sets it apart from all the beef and broccoli joints. highlights include the pork belly, scallion pancakes, and garlic eggplant. 2nd Wednesday of every month they have a 20 course tasting dinner. Needless to say - amazing! read more

The food is awesome and has always been since my first visit here. The service last evening was awful. We waited for 25 min staring at other tables before our one out of the 2 entrees arrived. And when i asked the guy who brought food about the delay, he said it was the usual. And there was no sorry or will try make it up. And while we devoured the food, the other entree arrived after another 15 mins. We asked the manager Tina on the delays and she just said it was usual! At that i asked she cancel our entree and bring the check. She was so rude and walked up and brought us the bill after another 5 min with no apologies. My 9 yr old was still hungry since we had to share the entree. Now we waited for some more time but it seemed like they didnt care so we walked up and ppaid. The manager did not bother collected the payment and went on with her other customers. I asked her for a complaint form and she gave me a plain sheet of paper! It was the most horrible service ever. It seems my business does not matter to them. So be it. Horrible horrible attitude and service! read more

The best authentic Chinese food around at good prices. Love scallion pancakes and everything else. Be aware though...spicy is SPICY!!!!?

Not your average American Chinese restaurant. The sauces have a different delicacy to them. They are definitely more of an authentic version. My partner got General Tso's Chicken and the sauce was absolutely delish! It starts out with a little bit of sweet, then sour like vinegar and them BAM, the warmness of the hot chili's kicks in. I had the Chicken in Garlic Sauce chicken and unfortunately because it was so salty...I mean...REALLY SALTY (I like salt normally),that I could only take a few bites and that was the end of the meal for me. I took it home and threw it in our compost pile to recycle for the vegetable garden next year. Next time I'll get the General Tso's! The Egg Drop Soup was good too, though I never had it with corn in it before....a totally different taste sensation. Service was attentive and other than the back of my vinyl booth being torn, the restaurant was quite clean. I won't write this place off yet. read more

The food here is authentic as they come, being Asian and dining all over..do not order the Ameri/Chinese dishes. The dry fry style of cooking with sechuan flavors are amazing...try the spicy noodles, double cooked intestine with peppers as well as the spicy tripe and tongue. If you truly appreciate authentic Asian food, there is nothing to gripe about except for the slow service. read more

I went to so many Chinese restaurants , but never likes the food. But here, for the first time I truly enjoyed myself at this place. Best Chinese food ever. I loved it :). I will always recommend Han Dynasty. Very slow service but tasty when finally arrived! read more

It was our first time eating there and we all ordered "mild". The food was so spicy and hot that we couldn't finish most of the dishes. If this was mild, I would hate to taste "hot". All we tasted was "hot", not flavor. In addition, one of our party ordered the duck, which wasn't ready when the other dishes were. After asking three times when it would be done, we canceled that part of the order, and then they brought it out anyway. If they had told us that the duck would take a half an hour longer than the other dishes, it wouldn't have been ordered. Service was fine,and the duck was taken off the bill. read more

Wosrt service ever! We went with friends who have a new born. They refused to give the EMPTY and NOT RESEVERED bigger table to accommodate the infant carrier. They want us to put it on the floor with all the foot traffic and grease. The older waitress has the most horrible attitude, was not a bit helpful and treated us like dirt. Don't try your luck there. The food is okay from past experiences. But it's totally not worth the disrespects that come with the food. We won't be there again for sure! read more

Awful, house special fried rice had nothing in it? No duck sauce? Three treasure chicken...hmm..taste like buried treasure ? Never will return! Twenty six dollars worth of dog food. read more

Best authentic chinese around the area. If you love spicy chinese food this is the place to be.

Horrible service! They asked us to put the baby carrier on the floor instead of giving us a bigger table. Are you kidding? I felt completely guilty to have suggested the place. Unbelievably lousy service. Never again! read more

One of my two favorite Asian restaurants in the area. Food is outstanding. I like beef w long hot pepper, beef w scalions, chicken black bean. My kids always get Tawainese sausage appetizers. My husband loves the DanDan noodles (a lo mein spicy variation). Ok to dine in for lunch. For dinner, it is very busy (because food is tasty!), so the dine in service can be slow, etc. That's why for dinner, we opt for take out :) Female owner is always there, very friendly! read more

My wife and I dropped in tonight for dinner. I prefer the authentic menu items and my wife prefers the Americanized menu. Both choices are good. In general the food is very good. The downside is that the service really sucks. The staff is running around in a near chaos state. There is no organization. If the service was better we would return more often. read more

Love , love, love. My favorite is the Won Tons in chili oil. My husband has had their General Tao Chicken , I will continue to try new things soon. Lunch time is another great time to go. read more

Best Chinese food in area. Tea smoked duck is great as well as ginger duck. Garlic eggplant great. Better to get take out - service is spotty. read more

We've given them business for years, even after seeing roaches as we dined in for dinner. For the last several years, we've ordered takeout. The last two times, they've left out rice with all of our entrees. The first time we forgot about it, this time we called and complained and the 'guy' aka 'manager' was defensive, RUDE, and claimed we were lying. We left a $5 tip on our takeout food. Why would we or ANYONE for that matter, make up a story that involves them driving back to the restaurant, leaving the rest of their hot meal at home to pick up rice and missing soup? The situation wasn't ideal - they made a mistake..again BUT, the deal breaker for us was how poorly it was handled. Incredibly poor customer service. You've lost $150/month and while that loss probably means nothing to them, quite frankly it should. read more

Godawful experience tonight at Han Dynasty. Heat not working on a cold night, lied to by staff ("it's set at 70", could see our breath), ignored by waitress (took orders from and served food to party who came in after us), couldn't even get soup out (wonton, a staple soup, nothing exotic) in a 15 minute period. 4 sets of customers in entire restaurant, no food came out. Left after being ignored for 20 minutes. Avoid at all costs! read more

My favorite Chinese (Sichuan) restaurant in the Philadelphia area and worth the one hour drive from Center City. I've eaten in China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and this place is authentic, they don't hold back on the spice. Their menu is extensive and most everything I've tried is good. Some of my favorites: wontons in red chili oil, black bean fish, fish stew with chili oil, cumin beef. read more

If your looking for sichuan chinese food this is your place. Every dish I've had here has been outstanding! I cannot wait to go back, getting hungry just thinking about the place. read more
