If you're looking for outstanding Asian food, this place is absolutely worth seeking out. The…read morelocation is a little tucked away, but the food more than makes up for it. The portions are incredibly generous, and every dish we tried was delicious. The drunken noodles were packed with flavor, the fried rice was perfectly cooked, the Tso's chicken was excellent, and the steamed fish was fresh and beautifully prepared. The highlight of the meal was the spectacular tableside Flambé dessert--it was both delicious and a fun experience. The service was exceptional. Our waitress was incredibly sweet, attentive, and made sure we were well taken care of throughout the meal. The owners were also warm and welcoming, adding to the wonderful dining experience. And don't skip the beer--it was fantastic! Great food, generous portions, outstanding hospitality, and excellent value. We'll definitely be back.

I saw this place named on some guy's list of best restaurants in NOVA. We only ordered 4 dishes so…read moreI can't speak for the rest of the menu. But what we did get was pretty darn good (if a bit pricey)! The style is much more authentic, so if you're looking for something like Hunan Cafe (Greenbriar), or that NOVA institution China King, this is different. Is it better? For the most part, yes. (But I still crave that Americanized sweet, spicy, glazey brown sauce that comes in slight variations in so many dishes). I had the hot and sour soup, Szechuan spicy fried eggplant sticks, Taiwanese rice noodles with fried tofu, and the Chengdu twice cooked pork. Everything was excellent, except....the hot and sour soup. Honestly, Hunan Cafe and China King beat the pants off this place's hot and sour soup. Here, it was a bit too sweet. It had some red chilies in it, but I could not detect much white pepper. And it's a vegetarian version, so no small bits of chicken or pork. I'd skip this the next time I order from here. But the other dishes... amazing! The noodles were light-tasting but still delicious. The eggplant was garnished with cilantro, garlic, salt, and red chili sauce. The twice cooked pork was sauteed with sliced leeks and the same red chili sauce. I think that's the fresh, zingy, spice flavor profile I like that can't be found at Americanized Chinese restaurants. Sure, China King has its place and I'll still go back there when I'm close (RIP China King Fair Lakes and Herndon). And admittedly, I go to that awful Panda chain occasionally because I never learn. The unfortunate thing is, I'll more likely go to these places than Cheng's because of the price. The pork dish was $21 and the noodle dish was $19. My total bill came to $60 before tax and tip. If I need to stuff my face with a Chinese umami bomb fast, I'm probably going to the other places for $15-30. I do want to try the rest of the menu at Cheng's, but it's going to be a drawn-out process for the sake of my wallet. I'd be remiss if I didn't include a comment from my dining partner. She compared the quality and taste of the food at Cheng's to Peter Chang's (either Peter Chang's-Herndon, or Mama Chang Fairfax). A high compliment. But she said the value is better at those places' AYCE options than what we got at Cheng's, and I agree. If you've been to none of these places, you have to try them all at least once.

This is my family's favorite place to get red roast pork and duck. Our group arrived starving it…read morewas a Sunday so they had 2 carts loving around. We chose a couple of dim sum items and then ordered the rest off the menu. Cart food: shrimp dumplings were amazing, using whole shrimp in the dumpling, pork dumpling was hot and good. I was disappointed in the sesame bean balls, they were not fresh but I still ate them. The fresh cooked food was terrific. The pork, duck and half chickens were all hot and very fresh. My favorite is the red roast pork. We order a couple platters and they are always demolished. The chow fun was ok, thought the noodles were a bit too mushy. The rest of the dishes were good. Everyone enjoyed all the food. We needed many takeout containers. Service was very good. They have pitchers of water that were always refilled. We have lots of water drinkers in our group. Cleanup was always on point, dishes never stacked.

Service here is speedy and nice. We ordered a variety of dim sum dishes as well as their beef chow fun and their duck. I absolutely loved their beef chow fun (as it was super flavorful), their duck (which was so juicy), and their steamed rice roll with fried dough stick. Overall, everything was great and I think this is a really reliable spot for good dim sum!

Flew into town for a concert and saw this at the top of the recommendations, very serendipitous!…read more The place has a great atmosphere from the moment you walk in, the decor has a unique kitsch and the music is a definite vibe as well, and that's before you meet the staff. The staff was friendly front to back, hostess, waitress, bar tender- friendly and knew the menu and had solid recommendations and knowledge of the menu. The food was great, we had rangoons for an appetizer, followed by their famous General Tso's and the Mongolian Combination, all delicious! Highly recommend this place if you're in the area! Shout out to Jason!

I came here with a couple of friends who live in the area. The initial vibe and aesthetic seemed…read morereally cool. I was excited for my meal and experience there. However things went downhill pretty quickly. I ordered one of their specialty cocktails, which is more expensive than most of their meals, which was just ok. The drink was pretty strong which I didn't mind but most of it was just ice and the gummy was a little stale. Overall it looked cool but didn't really justify the price. The service is really where I felt let down. The 2 friends that I came with got their food in a normal timespan but it took 20-30 minutes for me to get my food. When I asked about it (because clearly they forgot) they lied and said their kitchen was backed up and the order is being prepared. The restaurant was half empty at that point so it was a little hard to believe. Also another waiter came out 10 minutes later and said my food just started to get cooked and will be out soon. Both my friends were pretty much done with their meals by the time I got mine and I didn't get anything from the staff aside from an insincere apology and a bad excuse. For the price we paid I expected much better service and for the staff to go above and beyond when they make a mistake, which didn't happen. The food was good when it eventually did come out though so I I'll give it an extra star for that.

I've noticed that the reviews for Chili Wok have trended more positive over the past few years. My experiences after discovering this restaurant 2 months ago have been phenomenal I've tried a variety of dishes here and the quality and authenticity of the food is there. It's very hard to find that in the U.S. I will continue to come here and would recommend anybody to give it a try if you like spicy food

It took a little time for Uber Eats delivery but everything came in hot and fresh. The fried rice had a hint of wok hei but not too strong. The star of the show was the Mongolian beef. Tender pieces of beef with green onion & white onions in a savory sweet sauce, also with a hint of wok hei. Yeah that will be the go to. Came with side of white rice. Was not full. 3/4 full. Weird.

Never late. And they also send you a picture of your food once it is delivered (you must be close enough and you must order more than their requirement so they can deliver). But I love this place I'm so glad to be back HAHA The only thing negative I would say is one time I tried to order a soup over the phone so it could be ready when I got there since I was going to pick up instead of ask them to deliver and the man who answered the phone was like "You don't need to order this over the phone it's already ready for you" in like a rude way but hey we all have our days and he's right because like I said they're never late and they're always prepared.

Their namesake is dumpling but their other dishes are also excellent. My go to dishes are Lili's dumpling Fried and Xinjiang pork ribs. The dumpling's filling are made fresh after you order. So the dumplings are always fresh. The Xinjiang fried pork ribs are tender and nicely fried with a umami coating. In addition, the bits are tasty on top of plain white rice. Recently, we tried the shredded pork with dry bean curd. It is a bit tangy and spicy with jalapeños pepper instead of the normal bell pepper. Might have to try the snow pea leaves when it is in season. It was so good, I went back a second time and had the exact same dishes with my son while he came back for holiday from university within a week. Their service is always attentive and they provide free tea that tasted like real brew tea along with healthy amount of rice. I am glad I rediscovered this place again.
