Hunan Restaurant - Hunans lunch, Fried Wonton Savory Wonton Soup Beef with Broccoli , fried rice. - Chinese Near Me - Eureka, California

This is a public service to those raised in SF who are accustomed to eating tasty Chinese food. The Eureka Hunan Restaurant ued old and burnt oil for our take-out order. We paid about $80.00 for a meal and EVERY dish was awful except the white rice. The chow mein had an "old oil" flavor, the prawns were breaded, not battered, as is traditional and they were burnt to a v e r y dark brown--had to toss them (a $10.00 side item) The beef in the broccoli-beef dish had no flavor, at all; not even a soy sauce flavor! The General Tso chicken looked like it should, but was also flavorless, except for the burnt oil nuances. What an incredible waste of my family's money. In regard those, who may adore this type of Chinese food preparation, they are not to blame as many may have never had an opportunity to experience traditionally prepared dishes. This Eureka California Hunan Restaurant has been removed from our options. We are sad to make this report, as over the years we've lost quite a few Chinese dining choices in the City of Eureka, due to the economic downturn. Sorry folks--Hunan Restaurant in Eureka is a "zero" star rating. P.S. To working families: please spend your hard-earned dollars in an alternate eating establishment. This food is much too expensive to gamble your budget and family's health on. read more

Ordered takeout and none of the food was very good. The hot & sour soup was black (not exaggerating) and was very bland. Took one bite and tossed the rest. The Chinese chicken salad was a ridiculously small portion and extremely soggy. The honey walnut shrimp was barely warm and needed more sauce. I normally don't write reviews but sadly this was disappointing. read more

I placed a simple delivery order of two items and waited two hours until it finally arrived. The order was cold by then and I must say it was the blandest "Hunan" sauce I have had in over 50 years of eating Asian food! read more

well reviews on google was really good then maps recent reviews was not good but we was here already and I am pretty happy great eggdrop noodles and fried rice beef and broccoli definitely slightly not authentic but overall great food great service 3.7-4 is my review read more

Stopped in recently for lunch because we had heard that new owners had taken over the old Hunan. The place looks exactly the same on the inside so no face lift or update on the interior, and it is in dire need of it. Same menu, same dated booths, tables and chairs. The lunch specials are all around $7-$8 bucks are a very generous portion for the price. My hunan chicken was okay but nothing special about it. Actually had to add salt as it was bland. Fresh veggies of brocolli, carrots, mushrooms and onions with the hunan sauce however it was not spicy at all. The hot and sour soup was good however its a tiny bowl with the special would have gladly had more. Fried rice was again okay but nothing out of the ordinary. I opted for the egg roll with my lunch and once more it was good but not great, actually overcooked. A short selection of bottled beers, and the Tsing Tao that I had was a very good compliment to my lunch. This is an okay hunan style restaurant - not sure if its any better? Was hoping to see a new menu or even a fresh coat of paint on the inside - neither happened so its pretty much just the same as before. 3 Stars - new owners same old dated interior and old menu. 00672 read more

Absolutely love this place was our go to family spot. It's been really unfortunate every time we go in now it's a 45 min wait with the whole restaurant empty cause they take in to many DoorDash. You would think by now they would either take a cap of the amount of DoorDash to be considerate of their incoming costumers or get more employees to handle the flow of people coming in. It's almost like they should become a DoorDash only establishment. read more

It was busy, but well worth the wait! I got the pan fried noodles and they were perfect!

Service was fine. The food was awful. So sorry we stopped on way through town. And really sorry for local diners. I am sure there are better options in Fortuna. read more

oh dear husband. please remind us next time we are desperate for Chinese food...DONT FUCKING ORDER FROM HERE AGAIN!! we tried it again, and again, fucking nasty. the salad came like it was prepackaged from a grocery store. we ordered the Chinese chicken salad with hot mustard, thinking it would be TOSSED with the hot mustard...nahhh. the hot mustard and the peanut sauce came in separate containers and the salad was compartmentalized. WTF. we had to toss our own salad, and not in the good way. the hot sour soup with pork(???). totally umm, was that pork?? looked like the same boiled chicken that was in the salad. sweet sour pork was meh...edible at best. read more

We had take out for a party. Food was good and ready very quickly. Prices were very affordable and their menu is available on line. BTW they recently changed management. This review is of the new owners. read more

The new owner has made huge improvements in the kitchen, we love all the veg-friendly options! The service is super delightful as well. We love Hunan and can't wait to see their new dining room, although we are happy to continue getting takeout in the meantime read more

Kids wanted to try this place again as they had heard it was under new ownership. Very disappointing, sorry, but the food was gross, indistinguishable meat (weird texture) and without flavor. read more

I really hate writing negative reviews when a place seems to be trying hard... but I hate spending money on really disappointing food too. So: we get there for lunch when they open at 11 AM. It's freezing inside. The menus look exactly the same as when it was owned by someone else. Nothing had changed. We order a pot of tea and the waitress - who was very nice - said the water was heating up and we'd have our tea soon. After about 10 minutes, a man came out and said they were out of tea - they'd had a rush on Valentine's Day (today is February 27) and hadn't gotten the new order in yet. He offered to bring me hot water and lemon, which I declined. This is where I point out that Hunan is literally two doors from an Asian Market, who have lots of tea. Anyway: You get hot and sour soup or chicken salad with the lunch specials. I got the soup, which was really quite good. A LOT of black pepper in it, but good. My soup arrived within about five minutes of ordering. My husband got the chicken salad, which was a small green salad with some bits of chicken and a sesame dressing. His salad arrived maybe 15 minutes after my soup. Maybe 10 minutes after that, we got our lunches. I had Szechuan tofu with fried rice; my husband had sweet and sour pork with steamed rice. We also ordered pan-fried noodles with vegetables. There was a condiment caddy with sweet and sour sauce and hot mustard for the egg rolls. I liked the Szechuan tofu which was in a black bean sauce, but there was one lonely hot pepper in there (and no vegetables) and it had no heat at all. The fried rice was inoffensive. The sweet and sour pork was balls of pork in a nearly-gummy batter and bland sauce. The steamed rice did not seem to be freshly cooked. The hot mustard was VERY runny with no heat and the sweet & sour sauce was gloppy - like it came out of a big jar. The vegetables on the noodles were good, but the noodles had burned spots and the dish was drowning in black bean sauce. I am giving two stars because it wasn't a complete disaster - I have had worse Chinese food - but neither would we come back here. read more

I love the chicken teriyaki. It has a beautiful hint of ginger and it's delicious. The service is especially good and friendly. The har gow is one of my favorites. The egg rolls are fresh and good too. read more

Anyone who gives a 1 star review must be a Karen or Karl . My family and I have been coming here since I was I was a child. By far our favorite Chinese restaurant overall in Humboldt. Recently under new management the food tastes even better! And new authentic Laotian options . The chow main and papaya salad here is my favorite from anywhere I've tried. All the food here was fresh and meat was tender. The service here was friendly and personable, family ambiance. read more

This is my go-to place for Asian cuisine. Always fresh and delicious. Excellent service and great food with large portions. Parking can be a bit challenging during peak hours. read more

My go to place to eat! Took the family in today, normally we order take out, our waitress was amazing, super kid friendly, the food was delicious as always, they have a new menu item Boba, perfection, she offered the kids a sample no cost to us, it wasn't typical boba, it's popping boba with jelly's also, and the flavor was very nostalgic having grown up right next to a Asian market. 10/10 would and do always recommend them. The place is never to packed and kid friendly, great location in Henderson center. They also have a new online menu you can order from via QR code on the door or card at the front desk. read more

Been looking for a go to Chinese food place. I've tried others in the area from Arcata to Fortuna and I've had so many misses. I had good experiences each time that I've been at Hunan, not just the food but the employees as well. read more

It's important to note that Hunan is under new management and has been receiving consistently high reviews since the change. They really should create a new Yelp page to boost their stars. Szechuan tofu and veggie chow mein are great! Four stars because their spring rolls are just ok. Service is friendly as well :) read more

Unfortunately food did not taste fresh at all. I was not sure if we were eating poultry or pork? We will not order from this place again. read more

Hunan Restaurant - Not fresh!!! We were looking forward to a Sunday dinner, but it tasted old and not sure if we were eating chicken or pork!!! - Chinese Near Me - Eureka, California

You call this orange chicken? The kids did not even eat it. Please do not serve this dish read more

Hunan Restaurant - Orange chicken - Chinese Near Me - Eureka, California

While on an evening walk through the neighborhood with my wife the aromas hit us on the street and convinced us we should give this place a try since we're close and love every other restaurant in Henderson Center. Ordered the Veggie Curry it was super flavorful and different than the usual Thai and Cambodian curries I've had. The orange chicken that I ordered for the kids was a little disappointing as it was just rice and chicken and I expected some sort of veggies to come with but that could've been a mistake in ordering perhaps. I'll definitely come back for the curry though. read more

Try the Lao menu, you're welcome Last time I got the crispy pork belly. So good! Love that you can order online. New owners are from a Lao. read more

Excellent food and nice people! The green beans and eggplant are our favorite dishes.

We tried this restaurant today and were very disappointed. It is dirty the crab cheese puffs had no crab meat that I could find when I opened them up and a hair on the plate and the other food we ordered was not good. We will not be going back and will be sticking with our usual spots. read more

I was shocked to see so many poor reviews of this place! We ordered in at Hunans for the first time yesterday and were pleasantly surprised. We went the basic Chinese food route and ordered chicken chow mein, pork fried rice, broccoli beef, walnut shrimp, orange chicken and a side of cream puffs. The rice and chow mein were our favorite dishes. So much flavor with actual chunks of meat! The spicy broccoli beef came in a delicious sauce which we used for other dishes. They also included two large containers of regular white rice. They have an impressive $10 lunch special and some dinner combos for families of different sizes $35-$95 for a LOT of food. Our host was so friendly and all smiles which is a rarity these days in food service. We used to be loyal to Chins but now we will be going to Hunan's every time. Can't wait to try more dishes. read more

my o my! i got their version of "chicken noodle soup" I'm horrible with remembering names but this stuff is goooooood! Added the Spicey chili sauce and onions and cilantro... wow read more

I heard they were under new management so I went to try their Laotian food. Wow I was super surprised with how delicious the food was. The chicken Larb was incredible, fresh and flavorful. Really tasty eggrolls. Cant wait to go back and try some more items. read more

Always delicious food! We consistently order the chicken fried rice, crab wontons, honey walnut prawns (sauce on the side) and one of the chicken dishes. The staff are extremely friendly, and always help make us feel welcome I gave it 4 stars instead of 5, because they are a bit pricey. But it's worth it once in a while for some good quality, yummy Chinese food! read more

Having undergone a new ownership, since then this restaurant has completely redeemed themselves in my eyes. Today I ordered my usual, walnut shrimp and double face noodle, however there was a misunderstanding and the noodle dish was mistaken as Chow mein. When I called and informed it was the wrong dish they were happy to comp us our dish, and informed me it is listed in their menu as "pan fried noodles". When I picked up my order they were so polite, apologetic and friendly to the point that it has prompted me to write this review. I have yet to try their Laos menu but the specials look delish and I'll definitely give them a try next time! read more

I ordered on line and I get here 35 minutes after I ordered. They never sunnited my order so had to wait another 20 min. She comes out after 20 min and after 5 guests picked up there food after mine. She tells me they still have to cook another 20 min. I ordered over an hr ago on line. If they can't pay attention to on line ordered than they shouldn't have the option of on line. This is so ridiculous waiting over an hr for food and 5 peeps that ordered after me got there food. Like really. I have hungry seniors and likes at home like how is this okay and they don't even compensate me at all. Dude while I'm waiting I'm doing this and after today I will never come back to this place again. I would rather drive 4 hours and get panda express than order from here. read more

We received the wonderful menu in the mail with great descriptions and pics of their food. We went curbside to order the appetizer sampler and an order of pork fried rice. The sampler was great, the rice was dark brown, seemed really old and had tiny, hard pieces of pork (I think) and some veggies, no taste. We usually don't do this but we threw it out after we tried it. Next time we ordered, it was for the Savory noodle soup which is supposed to contain chicken, shrimp, pork, vegetables, & noodles. What we got and didn't know until we got home was their regular won ton soup. It was pretty in the container but had no flavor at all and, since it wasn't the correct soup, it had no chicken, shrimp or pork or noodles. We live in the neighborhood and like to support local businesses but we were very disappointed. read more

This has been my go-to takeout place in Eureka Ca for many years. In recent years they have updated their menu, and it's better than ever! Service is always prompt and polite, I don't dine-in usually, but the restaurant is clean and peacefully quiet since takeout is more popular. All of the food is delicious. I have 0 complaints about Hunan Restaurant in Eureka. read more

I was really hesitant on giving this place another try but I'm so glad I did. The food was amazing!! The restaurant is under new ownership and it definitely shows. I definitely will be going back. read more

Maybe lunch would be better, but I'll never know. Had the rainbow shrimp, first time I'v ever seen it battered ,don't get me wrong, I love deep fried when it's cooked not runny batter inside. Wife had eggplant that was over cooked... between the two PERFECT. 1 large family group, 1 couple in the place yet we didn't see the waiter again. No how is it or do you need anything. Had to exchange a dirty plate for a clean one . Can I rate negative stars? I believe the good ratings are from owners / employees, how can you give stars to frozen vegetables and microwave? read more

Great food and service!! They are also quick to serve. Just by walking near the restaurant smelling the aroma of their food cooking drove us to order here. And we definitely made a great choice. This restaurant definitely deserves a 5 star Yelp review. I'm shocked they only have 2.5 stars on Yelp. I'm looking forward to returning soon. read more

THIS FOOD IS AMAZING! I am so surprised at the low reviews. I've eaten Chinese food all over the state and this has to be one of the best. I've tried other local places and have been less than impressed. It's a Sunday and I am working ALOT from home. I decided to get the Hunan Meal for 2 under the combo dinners. $30. I was given a MASSIVE amount of carefully packaged food. This is literally enough for 5 good sized adult meals, PLUS soup. After a few failed attempts at getting good Chinese food in this area, I found a winner. The food was steaming hot, fresh, crispy veggies, perfectly cooked meats, crispy fried foods. Everything you expect from quality Chinese food. This will definitely be my go to spot in Humboldt. read more

Ordered the chicken chow mien with crispy noodles to go. Never will eat there again. The noodles were burnt and the chicken tasted like rubber. read more

We were looking for a great Chinese food place in Eureka that is open on Sundays and we discovered Hunan and we loved it! We had a huge order and everything was delicious, fresh, and excellent quality. We had pork fried rice, chicken chow mien (amazing!), crab cheese puffs, hot & sour soup, sweet & sour pork, mushu pork, Chinese chicken salad, imperial shrimp....I can't remember what else. It was quite a sampling and everything was fantastic. The veggies were tender and crisp, the pan fried noodles were perfect, the rice was fluffy, the crab cheese puffs had lots of filling--it was just a great feast. I think we found a new favorite Chinese place. Highly recommend Hunan! read more
