I drove over to this establishment because i'm dead tired and my body just needed food! i by no means expected to be this blown away with this restaurant! i ordered the Szechuan delight excuse me for forgetting the name and also not taking an actual photograph! i digress. i walked in and the man was so patient, he let me go over the menu and ponder. and ponder. and when i finally decided he was so helpful and genuinely kind. i walked out to have. cigarette while my food was prepared and when i finished and looked up he was walking me over my order! it truly warmed my heart. the icing on top of this delicious savory cake is this food is absolutely stunning. the veggies were cut with so much care and my dish was filled with jumbo tender shrimp. tender beef and chicken. amazing zucchini, onion, red pepper, baby corn, green pepper! the cost of food is so high now and especially with my work schedule i just never have time to get so much nutrition from one meal! this is a bit of a jump price wise i paid $18 and some change roughly but when your just used to wendy's and fast food drop and grease crap this is such a breathe of fresh air! i do wish my dish was actually wayyyy spicier i asked for super spicy but that's just me nit picking! try this!!!!! read more

I went to Hunan Express for the first time this afternoon and it was wonderful! Crystal was very pleasant!! Their service was efficient; the ribs were hot, the serving was generous and delicious!! Everything was superb & I'm already looking forward to my next meal with them!! (and their plants are gorgeous...) read more

I tried this place based on a recommendation from someone on the Nextdoor app. It's mostly take out but there are some small tables inside. The owner/manager who took my owner was very friendly, and brought my food out to my car when it was ready. Overall, everything was just average. read more

We've been eating their food for twenty plus years and it's always the best my family has ever had. Highly recommend the lo mein, bourbon chicken, and spring rolls. Order with fried rice! The service is friendly and quick. It's a small location but do not judge them by that! Delicious. read more

The food here was excellent. Hot, delicious, exactly what I ordered and better than most Chinese restaurants I've been to since Covid hit. The service was quick and extremely friendly. read more

Gone down hill horribly past 2 years, cashew chicken sauce watered down fried rice worse than Panda Express.

I am so sad because this place was my go to spot. Was in there recently and there was definitely a big ass bug on the floor, I swear it was a roach. I told the guy at the register and he acted like he didn't even care, super red flag. I will not be back but people should know. Between this and the disgusting oil build up so bad it went into the UPS store just means they are not clean and I wouldn't trust them with my food. Look at how burnt the egg roll is, that means they use dirty oil to fry them. No telling how long it's been since it's been changed. Do better. read more

My family tried to eat here one evening.the food was bad, the service was bad, and the people that work there were incredibly rude. Will not be doing business with them in the future. read more

It's ok food, nothing special. Lunch specials are a little small. Had the pepper steak which was good and a small tub of wonton soup. read more

Hunan Express - Entrance - Chinese Near Me - Aurora, Ohio

There is no lower score than one star so I'm stuck with that. I just went there and ordered some dinner and when I brought it home I took one bite and found what appeared to be an inch long black piece of foreign debris that resembled a thick black leg from a grasshopper or perhaps a big long course hair of some sort but definitely not human as it had a bent end with several fibrous pieces.... It resembled an insect leg. I'm not saying that's what it was because I'm not an entomologist and I didn't have a microscope but he was disgusting. I am mediately took the food back to the restaurant and the same person who had taken my order was still there I showed him and he said not to worry it was a bristle from a brush. He disappeared into the kitchen and then brought out a common restaurant brush that had thick brown bristles not resembling the piece that I found in my food at all! I held it up and I showed him that it was not even similar and he mumbled something and went back into the kitchen. I was not offered a refund or anything so I left my food on the counter with the foreign object and ended up paying seven dollars for a fortune cookie and a packet of soy sauce. These are the facts of my story you make your own decision whether to eat here or not. I promise I will never be back. read more

The owners/staff are just as great as the food. It's our weekly go to and never disappoints

I just tried Hunan Express for the first time tonight for dinner. I must say that I'm very impressed. As far as Chinese takeout is concerned, this place is great. I ordered the house special spring roll, spare ribs, General Tao's chicken, and pan-fried noodles with beef (I have leftovers). Everything I ate was hot, fresh, and plentiful. The spring roll was excellent and had fresh tasting shrimp inside. The spare ribs were honestly amazing. They were much better than the disappointing ribs I ate from Ol'Chefskis, which is also in Aurora and claims to be Cleveland's best BBQ! The spare ribs at Hunan Express were meaty, flavorful, and as tender as any ribs I've ever had. They were well-trimmed and didn't have a bunch of nasty inedible parts like Ol'Chefskis. The General Tao's chicken was slightly chewy but still tasty. It came with big pieces of perfectly cooked broccoli and steamed white rice. The pan-fried noodles with beef and vegetables had a nice beefy umami flavor. The service was quick, and the gentleman who took my order was polite. The place looked cleaned and organized on the inside. If you live in the area and are in the mood for some Chinese food, make sure to give Hunan Express a try. read more

We stopped in quick to order before running for some quick groceries on Sunday right after their opening at noon. We ordered a lunch size Sweet and Sour Chicken, Sweet and Sour Pork, Chicken Egg Foo Young, Szechuan Chicken, egg roll, Crab Rangoon, and Potstickers. Everything was good, crispy, not oily, good flavors, not salty, and done quickly. The Sweet and Sour sauce was good and proper texture, but we liked the chicken and not the pork. Szechuan could have been spicier for mild and will order medium in the future. The Fried Rice was similar the good restaurants we remembered as kids, but could have more veggies. Crab Rangoon was good and crispy, but Potstickers very doughy and would not order them again. All and all we will be back. Very polite employees and quick service. read more

We have been getting takeout Chinese food from Hunan Express in Aurora for many years. Very friendly and fast service. Great portion sizes and prices are unbeatable. Food is always hot, tasty and excellent. To me their stand out dish is Singapore noodles. read more

This is an excellent restaurant and their hard work and effort needs to be recognized. First off, when ordering through a phone call the staff is absolutely flawless and so polite. The food is so exquisite and the staff always gets the order right. The interior is always clean and there will always be a table open if needed. Overall, a wonderful business and I will be buying again. read more

We moved to this area about 6 years ago and our biggest complaint was that there weren't any good Chinese restaurants in the area. We stumbled upon Hunan Express and were pleasantly surprised! There are a few tables, but it's really just a takeout place. We have tried a variety of dishes and all very good. I usually ask for medium spicy for most dishes. read more

Great place for takeout and if you're craving Chinese, portions are good food tastes great. Service is always good and staff are friendly. My go to place for Chinese. read more

This is one of our easy to access Chinese takeout places and we love it here. No bells and whistles, just good food at a super reasonable price. I know there are places to sit here, but the restaurant itself is usually filled with people getting takeout food. We are strict lo Mein fans and also Cashew chicken fans and as a result, these are the go to's for my family. My nieces love eating the spring rolls and also the wonton soup--a bit too spicy for me. The place is staffed with friendly people and always very clean. Parking is ample and it is never hard to get in and out. Love it here and suggest anyone try it for their Chinese fix. read more

I only went to this place based on the two reviews here. Aurora is not a place known for its chinese food but I wanted to try it. I had the moo goo gai pan and fried rice...I will go back but the first attempt was average and bland. read more

We love Hunan Express. Friendly guy at the front, very fast and good food for the price. We eat takeout from here a couple times a month.

Mediocre Chinese at best. Very bland, order wrong, smaller portions for take out quart sized. Other quick take out Chinese restaurants in Aurora are far superior, tastier, and overall just better. read more

I just noticed that this restaurant was a few minutes down the road from me. So I typically get the basic "orange chicken" or "general tso chicken" or "teriyaki chicken" but I thought I'd branch out for once. I quickly researched all of their dishes to see which sounded the best. I went with their Hunan chicken - lunch version. When I called in they asked how hot I wanted it and I said "medium". I love spicy food and didn't want to go too bold with a choice of "hot". When I went to the store, the gentleman behind the counter was very nice. I was in and out quickly. When I got back to my office I opened it up and it smelled amazing! So I dug in. I liked that the chicken wasn't fried which apparently is typical for this dish. The sauce was similar to teriyaki and very salty. Lots of yummy veggies saturated in sauce. The fried rice was good!! It would have been great with some hot or duck sauce but I didn't see any out in the store for customers to grab like most Asian restaurants. I would come here again for lunch but most likely get something different. read more

I dont know why the reviews are so mixed. I ordered from here for over 7 years and I LOVE it! Its the best! I love their food. Always warm and fresh. Its a pick up / delivery place so do not stay there to eat lol They are always busy (good thing too!) and I always thought the chairs in front where just for waiting, not to actually eat there like some reviewers say. If you like easy, quick, good, hot Chinese food, this is the place for you. PS. Try the Egg Drop Soup!!! read more

This is one of our favorite places to order Chinese from since we moved to Aurora. They are always very polite and orders are always ready in about 15-20 minutes. The food is tasty with our favorites being the Mongolian Beef, General Tso's Chicken(Mild), and the beef lo mein. read more

I picked up my order and went home. I ate the crab and so Chicken and rice and got so sick I had to call off work. I was sick all night until 5 in the morning. I contacted the store and all he could say was no one else called. So people don't call. I owned a restaurant so I know what should have been done. I took that phone number out of my phone. read more

Chicken Pad Thai is my favorite here! They also have lots of other great options. Always quick service!

Tried this place for lunch today, first time in years and now I remember why. The dining area was dirty and disheveled. I ordered sweet and sour chicken lunch combo. The fried rice was the most bland and mushy I have ever had. The chicken was way overbreaded. The sweet and sour sauce had decent flavor but was far to thin and watery. Overall I would say definitely pass on eating here there are much better options for Chinese takeout or dine in within a few miles of here. read more

One of the best. No idea how some reviews are low. Always consistent, great workers that are friendly and fast. Their food is better than most full service Chinese restaurant s. read more

We've ordered takeout from Hunan Express a couple times since moving to Aurora. It is definitely much better than the other Chinese restaurant we tried takeout from. Thumbs up for inexpensive, yummy Chinese takeout. :D read more

We have been ordering take out from Hunan Express for over a year since we moved to Aurora. The food has always consistently been very good. My husband loves the pepper steak and my daughter has chicken. I usually do veggie egg foo young or pad Thai which is a nice version. Egg rolls are super too! Also the employees are very friendly! read more

Excellent food! Great service! Everyone is always so friendly and food is always fast. I was a little picky and changed a couple of things on my order and they did it with a smile on their face! No extra charge either. Will definitely go back and recommend to friends and family. read more
