    Great Chinese food! Nice family that runs the restaurant. The Singapore noodles are my favorite! One of the best in the area!

    Chau's Cafe has been on and off my radar these past few years. When I saw that Yelp friend, Lyn L…read more went there recently and gave them high marks, we decided to give them a try. Be prepared to hunt for the place if you've never been to the shopping center, which is quite close to Route 7. We were here around 4 p.m. on a Saturday. At that time of day, there was one occupied table. Ordering food means going to the counter and giving your order to the person working there, and then paying. They have a menu on the wall, but the woman working there told us to look at the paper menu. Apparently, the menu on the wall is constantly changing. Before coming, we decided to order Mongolian beef, ma po tofu, and two small bowls of hot and sour soup. At first, my husband couldn't find the Mongolian beef on the menu. I took a look and found it is listed under the chef's specials. We gave our order and also got a can of ginger ale from the refrigerated chest. After paying, we chose a four top table for ourselves. The food came out quickly! First, the hot and sour soup came. It was served hot and did have some kick to it. We both enjoyed it. It does have quite a few button mushrooms in it, which I gave to my husband. Just as we were finishing the soup, both our entrees arrived. We both liked the Mongolian beef (which also had an abundance of button mushrooms). The sauce was tasty, and the beef was tender. As for the ma po tofu, we thought it was okay but could have been better. It's a meat-free entree that basically has large pieces of tofu, a lot of thin, spicy sauce, and bits of green onions. We each were given generous portions of white rice. We would consider visiting again in the future, as the service was excellent. As for ambiance, it has a carry-out place feel. It's kept quite clean.

    This has become my go-to for Chinese food. The staff is incredibly kind from the second you walk…read morethrough the door. I love that the portions are "just right"--decent sized without being overwhelming like most places. Plus, if you dine in, the food is out in 5-7 minutes. Super fast! Also, the restaurant and bathrooms are always clean.

    We wanted easy Chinese food and chose this place because it was close. The reviews weren't great,…read morebut we decided to try it regardless. We ordered the sesame chicken, egg rolls and mu shi with pork. Ordering online was simple and food was ready fast. While dine in was available, this seems to be more of a takeout place. The food was good. Sauces were tasty and food was cooked well. It's a good place to go for your run if the mill Chinese food. I would order again, but aren't jonesing to go back. It was perfectly fine.

    This meal was the most disappointing dining experience I can recall as the food was unpalatable and…read morehad to be thrown away--an appalling waste of $56, including delivery fees, tax, and tip. It's profoundly upsetting and discouraging to pay that much only to receive food this inedible. I strongly recommend that you look elsewhere for your meal. Two of our usual Chinese food restaurants offering delivery were closed (??) on Tuesday. We placed an online delivery of often-ordered Egg Rolls, Chicken Corn Soup, Moo Goo Gai Pan, and ventured to try Beef Chow Fun. There wasn't a description offered of the Chow Fun, but according to Google, it is a dish described as wide, flat rice noodles without vegetables. The Egg Rolls were greasy, with a soggy, uninspired vegetable filling, while the Chicken Corn Soup, despite plenty of corn kernels and egg bits, was surprisingly bland; both sweetness and bits of chicken were missing. These appetizers set a disappointing standard, highlighting the poor quality and lack of flavor that defined the entire meal. Unfortunately, the entrees did not improve matters. The major disappointment was the entrees. There was not a single container of rice. The Moo Goo Gai Pan arrived swimming in a white sauce, accompanied by the standard chicken slices, water chestnuts, mushrooms, and snow peas, along with surprises of zucchini, broccoli, and chewy geriatric diced "baby corn." While Moo Goo Gai Pan is supposed to taste subtle, this version lacked even basic flavor. Most upsetting, the Beef Chow Fun contained no visible rice noodles--just lots of beef and something gummy, perhaps meant to be noodles. These execution problems made the meal nearly inedible.

    I'm not a negative review kind of guy, but when it sucks, it sucks…read more We usually visit once a month, and have not previously encountered a reason to complain. But today broke us. We walked in for lunch and it was busy, 10+ tables. It took a minute to be seated, no big deal, but we noticed immediately that the man seating us was also the ONLY employee on the floor. We watched as he made drinks, boba, pulled cases of Coke behind the counter, refilled water, and some 10 minutes later, finally made it over to take our order. We were very leery, but another employee suddenly appeared out of the back with the table settings and we were assured it was fine. We order and it takes about 10 more minutes just to get the broth. That starts BOILING before any of the meats, vegetables, or other items are delivered to the table. By this point we haven't eaten anything other than the complimentary peanuts and cucumbers, and we've been there a half-hour. My son's chicken arrives soon thereafter, and we finally receive the hot pot stuff. And that's the last we saw of the service team until he brought the check nearly 30 minutes later. We tried waving him down for refills, the other employee walked by and asked if we wanted a refill on the broths and then forgot about us. For an all-you-can-eat hot pot place, they sure can save a ton of money by never refilling your items, drinks, or broth. He brought out the check at nearly an hour later and I asked why he hadn't offered me a refill for any of the hot pot items. He apologized and then asked if I would be paying via card. I used the reward dollars we'd saved from previous visits because we don't think we'll be returning. Literally, absolutely zero inclination to serve us more food or even acknowledge that we were still hungry and hadn't seen him or any other staff after the initial table set. I removed the defaulted 22% tip HE selected on the credit card reader he brought to the table and asked for the manager. He said he'd be back, then disappeared to the kitchen immediately and didn't return for the 10 minutes we decided to wait. Another customer asked us if we'd visited before, and we told them we were monthly visitors, but this would likely be our last time. Another employee we hadn't seen the entire time we'd been there came to bus the table and we asked her if there were problems. She told us she couldn't talk about it, then hurried off to the back without even finishing our table. Most likely they were at least watching her, and would retaliate if she said anything out of line. A group walking in heard me complaining as we walked out, stopped me to ask what happened, then followed us back out the door. Can't recommend them anymore. Not sure what happened in the month since we were last there, but it's apparent it's not being managed actively. Short staffed is one issue, being poorly staffed by employees who don't care is a larger problem. Maybe new ownership and management is needed, if it continues like this, the corner will be vacant before too long. Sad, because this was a good place without having to drive to Falls Church. They could've cornered the market here in Ashburn.

    We opted for the AYCE menu choosing the duo pot, sichuan spicy & pork bone broth, for $35/ adult…read more They have standard hot pot veggies/ protein options and a decent sauce bar with more unlimited sides, our fave being the seaweed salad! Broth was mediocre (moderately watered down, lacked flavor), fish filet was a huge miss (couldn't finish the small portion we received bc it had unpleasant texture/ chewy after cooked), some meat options were chewy (our fave was the fatty brisket), and some of the veggies didn't seem fresh (mushrooms were soft/ discolored). We still had a good dining experience with the items we did find tasty & trying out a new hot pot spot in the Loudon area! 3.5/5
