The Chinese food here was ok. It didn't have that much flavor that got me wanting to come back. The generals chicken was kind of bland, the sauce wasn't too sweet or spicy, the chow mein also didn't hit that good. However, I do love some Chinese food, regardless of quality. I would give it another try and try another entree for sure. I ordered uber pickup so I can't speak much to the service. read more

My sister lives down the street and we spent all day decluttering. You know we worked up an appetite. We decided early in the day we would order from here. We ordered House Chow Mein, House Fried Rice, Honey walnut prawns, and cashew chicken. Let me tell you that this place hit the spot and it was so good I went back for seconds and thirds. They were only 30 minutes and the food was piping hot. 100% would order when I am in town again. read more

I ordered from here through door dash and I wasn't disappointed , but I wasn't throughly impressed either , the food was bland unfortunately, I got veggie chow mien, shrimp fried rice, and Szechuan shrimp , the chow o mien was dry and flavorless it had this odd taste I couldn't really put my finger on , like the food was scorched a bit , the broccoli and other veggies in the dish had that same strange taste , the rice was okay , again it didn't have any flavor that you would expect from a fried rice , the Szechuan shrimp was the best part of the meal , it didn't have much flavor but it was enough for you to enjoy the dish , all the food arrived piping hot secured in box as to not spill anywhere , I didn't receive any sauces to spruce the food up , or the complimentary fortune cookie you typically expect, the food wasn't the greatest but it wasn't the worse either read more

I ordered through Uber Eats atHappy Inn.. the food arrived in a timely manner, and it was at the correct temperature by Uber Eats. It was brought to me directly and Uber eats. Did they find job?. My order was Kung Pao chicken with pork fried rice . What I got was zucchini, Pao and pork fried rice . There was barely any chicken to find in the order less than maybe half of the chicken thigh if even that much .. the majority of the food with large chunks of zucchini and other vegetables. It was spicy, but not as spicy as I requested. I wanted additional hot sauce and more spicy of the meal.! I did not get it Paying $16 for something that I did not request is just wrong. I do not recommend eating at this place. I also wanted utensils and extra hot sauce, but there is no place on the application on Uber Eats to request these items. read more

happy INN, is my favorite Chinese restaurant in the area not only do they do free delivery under 3 miles but they are one of the only places in Rosemont who have the best Chinese food. They are super reliable and their prices you can't beat every time I order to my house the ladies that bring me my food are super nice and quick with delivery. I would usually say within an hour, they are at your house after ordering and putting in your order I believe inside the restaurant you can't sit down, which is why I prefer getting it delivered to my house. I always make small little adjustments like putting sauce on the side to have the chicken remain crispy. The honey walnut shrimp is a family favorite and also the shrimp chow mein is a must to buy when getting Chinese food. read more

A great place to have in the neighborhood! Chinese food is our go-to when we just don't want to cook or extras come to the house. They've kept their prices reasonable but they have gone up but the portions are still a good size!

It's been several years since I ate at Happy Inn and unfortunately, yesterday's order reminded me why. Their food is just not great. The Asian flavors aren't what you'd expect them to be (especially for being a long-standing business). Our family ordered broccoli beef and general chicken. The beef wasn't great (chewy texture) and the general chicken tasted very odd (my mom thinks maybe the oil was a bit old). The egg roll was not good :( Personally, I likely wouldn't order from there again. However, my family says that the food usually tastes better. read more

Imagine biting into a slice of pizza and finding that it's undercooked; crust is still doughy and yeasty, toppings still raw. That's what I experienced on my first tasting, of noodles still half-way raw, fried rice still moist due to having been cooked with rice that's just been steam cooked, unappetizing bitterness of undercooked squash on another dish and the sad tasting of sauce on their Mongolian beef that wasn't even cooked at all high enough temperature to melt into the tendon like meat. In my 40 years of Chinese food all over Northern California, this is the worst. I imagine their cooking crew not even having one Chinese in the line up, if they did, the owners should be shameful of allowing such a mess to be presented to the public. read more

The cucumber salad at this place has been on my mind for the last 4 days. In a desperate attempt to…read morerecreate it, I used too much garlic and made a giant mess in my kitchen. So I'm planning my next trip here this week so I can enjoy the amazing cucumber salad (so fresh, crunchy and garlicky), their pepper beef clay pot (sizzling rice at the bottom for the win and big portions), their spicy tofu (umm what?!? So crispy) and their awesome skewers (the pork belly is my favorite). The space is small, so if you're planning on dining in during peak times, you may want a back up or take it to go as they only have a handful of tables inside and a few tables outside. There is parking but it is shared with other business so can get busy. The service is wonderful! The hostess/waitress was very friendly and everything came out relatively quick. The clay pot does take some time (they need to cook up the rice to get that awesome crunchy bottom) so place your order for that first, and then look at the appetizers and skewers as they come out fast. This was my first trip but will not be my last to Da Fei Ge!

It was nice enough that I tried to come here on a weekend night and it was packed full of families which is great but probably where I should have thought about it more. We went up to the counter and were told to wait a few minutes. I saw that a large table was clearing up so I didn't mind waiting. During this time a group came up behind us and I thought they were after us. One of the server waved in our general direction after cleaning up and splitting the table, so I thought they were gesturing to us since it has already been 10 minutes of waiting. Wrong, it was to the group behind us. Maybe it was communicated in mandarin that they had a reservation, I'm not sure. I waited for the next empty table, which was also taken by yet another group that magically appeared behind us as if they knew they were in line. I decided to leave after this. My issue is that I looked and talked to the staff multiple times and at no point, did they indicate there was a waitlist, nor did they take my name, or anything about people in front of us. It was really frustrating because being told it would be a few minutes set the wrong expectation. This is not the only place to get skewers so if you're left confused where you are in line, just come another weekday, speak mandarin, or go somewhere else like I did

One of my coworkers was the one who recommended this spot. Let me just say the food was incredible. The seafood chow mein was the standout dish out of everything. Loaded with octopus tentacles, scallops, shrimp. Feel like half the time you get seafood options these days they skimp out but this place did not disappoint. The fried rice was a little more unique than I've personally tried before with pieces of beef and cabbage. But still very tasty. And the pork dishes we got including the sweet and sour were just incredible. One thing I do want to mention was some pieces of the pork did have a bone attached, but I honestly didn't mind it much. The flavor made it up for it. Also inside of this place looks very modern, clean. Since we only got takeout I can't say for certain service for sit down but ordering and getting our food was simple. The staff were very kind and friendly. Again, THANK GOD I finally have a good Chinese food option. No more oily salty food or Panda Express.

It is very easy to eat, and you can't stop eating it. It is everything that you would want. It's so crispy that you don't even need the walnuts. It stays crispy for a long time. It's fresh every time. Everything else is alright.

Second try with this restaurant. This time I wanted to try the salt and pepper fish. While I was…read morewaiting, 3 other people ordered the fish as well, and it gets good reviews here on Yelp, so I made the trip to Mack Rd at night once again. The good - my order was prepared quickly, and the amount of fish was very generous. The fish was tasty and spicy. The house chow mein that I also ordered had decent (read below) flavor. The bad - the salt and pepper fish had a great batter, but I feel they're battered too much, and the actual fish piece inside is tiny. My house chow mein didn't have a single shrimp in it. Lots of beef, which was good, but the char smell from the beef was the only thing you could taste on the noodles. It's almost like the chef cooked the noodles on whatever the beef was cooked on. The noodles we had ordered from here a month ago had very good flavor, but not a one note beef flavor. There was a lot of beef and chicken in the house chow mein, but zero shrimp means the cook either forgot or they didn't have them and thought it would be ok to add more beef. Either way, I paid extra for my selection, and didn't get it. Am I Pissy? Yes. Am I honest? Also a Yes. 3 stars this trip, probably my last.

Take-out only.

I absolutely love this place! We have gone here many times and keep coming back for the pork soup…read moredumpling & green beans. They have so many other good food items. We've had the duck here and enjoyed that as well. I like that they have a vegan item option , but this could be discouraging for vegans considering there's ducks hanging as soon as you walk in LOL. But overall the vibes are so cute with all the light up neon signs. When they get busy customer service is a little slow, but none the less we will continue to come! Also, portions for dishes like chow fun & rice are huge.

Journey to the dumpling is such an amazing family friendly spot for dumpling lovers…read more The staff is kind and the food came out in small rounds. I would come here again and again just due to the price and the taste of everything. My favorite was the salt and pepper calamari, but the steak and potatoes are phenomenal!

Yum. Authentic. Huge portions. Packed with flavor…read more I've ordered from here multiple times. Dining inside and both ordered Togo. Quality and portion of food always stay the same. Service is OK but maybe I'm just used to the american attentiveness. Didn't get the free dessert RIP. But I also forgot to ask.

We came in the dead hours after having just visited Rice theory. There was no one else in the…read morerestaurant so the service was very friendly and attentive. Since we already had snacks next-door, we ordered fried chicken wings and roast duck over rice. The fried chicken wings were delicious. They were not oily and had a good crunch. They were well seasoned, a little salty. I enjoyed it with rice, chili, oil, and soy sauce. The roast duck was tasty, but for the price we could have gone to 99 market and gotten ourselves half a duck and it would've been worth it. They served us a lot of bone pieces that had no meat on them. Great for soup to make a broth but not great over rice. The bathroom was also really sketchy. It needs a good scrub down.
