Pretty consistent. I have been coming here for years and typically order the same thing. Can't go wrong with wonton soup, spring roll (not the egg roll) and pepper steak. Service can be slow at times. Good local spot but definitely not worth a long drive unless you are in the area. read more

I've been going to Hunan Solon for many years. The last three times I have been there I have noticed that the carpet is not swept which provides a very unappetizing appearance. In addition, the food seems to be not up to standards. I hope they can turn it around read more

Staying directly across the street at the Homewood suites. Don't let some of some reviews scare you. This place is nice, clean, and serves authentic fresh food. Very tasty. Ambiance: Picture do not do it justice. Bright, tasteful decor. Clean. Not your typical dingy diner type Chinese joint. Almost a bit upscale. No gaudy Chinese decorations. Jazz playing overhead. Family run: patriarch runs front of house, and even has little girl sitting in booth, quietly doing what looks like school work. Service: surprisingly good. Everyone pitches in, so the entire meal, from ordering to boxing up leftovers, is seamless. Even the patriarch at front of house pitches in to make the dining experience pleasant. Food: remarkably good. Like really good. Seriously. Spicy Tom Yum soup is out of this world good. Broth has a nice spice level and is very flavorful. My wife does not do much spice, but it was so flavorful, she sampled it several times. Has considerable shrimp in it. All the veg is freshly added, and not cooked with the soup. I'd come back just for this soup. We ordered vegetarian egg rolls. Again, a very fresh flavor. Not your traditional bean sprout filled egg roll, which I like, but nonetheless very good. We split an entree. The general tso chicken. Broccoli very fresh and only slightly steamed. Nice and crisp. Sauce is authentic; not a modified sweet and sour. Properly cooked chicken. Overall, very authentic/ very fresh. I like this place. More like 4.5 stars, but I round down. read more

Food is good, but year after year we come on Christmas eve and year after year we are disappointed with the service. Logistical nightmare when they are faced with demand beyond the norm, something they need to figure out!! read more

Honestly not too good. Sweet n sour chicken sauce not on side as well as rushing us out at 9pm by turning lights off. Food not really delicious. felt interrogated read more

I love the big big shrimp in the Pai Thai. But it was a little too sweet for me. The chicken Ho Fun was perfect. read more

Hunan Solon - Shrimp Pad Thai - Chinese Near Me - Solon, Ohio

The food was smaller portions specially the rice, and cheap quality rice too. The taste was ok, not really authentic Chinese...like Taco Bell version for Mexican food. I also observed the owner hold back on the tips from his employees, keeps a portion and only gives the employee maybe half to less than half of the tips left on the table. read more

Good service and good food, I really like the hunan beef. My only issue is that there are so many choices on the menu that it is hard to decide on what you want to eat. read more

Been coming here for many years first time I reviewed. This Chinese restaurant is a hidden gem in Solon west industrial area. I have never had a bad meal here ever !! My favorite is their egg plant. The service is fast and friendly. I have never been disappointed, give it a try ! read more

Really great carry out service. Delicious Panang Curry. Lots of vegetables which was unique but quite good.

THe schezwan chicken and Hunan shrimp were very good but not enough spice. The shrimp was big and very tasty. They are nice but service was slow, though, I think they were short staffed. We waited like 10 minutes for a menu and another for our orders. I would recommend if they have more then one or two severs next it would be better. It was a very tasty meal, though! And everyone was super nice. read more

This place completely blew my mind. Who would've known that there would be an authentic Chinese restaurant tucked away in a strip mall in some random industrial suburb of Cleveland, next to a longhorn steakhouse and a KFC? We came here last week and it was so good that we came back again this week (yes, it's a half hour drive from my place). The place gets a surprising number of Chinese clientele. It seemed like all the Chinese people in Solon were there. They also have... erm... very Andy Warhol-esque pictures of Asian vegetables on the wall. They have an "authentic" menu and an Americanized menu. If you look Chinese they will automatically give you the authentic menu. (And they will talk to you in Chinese.) If you don't look Chinese you should request the authentic menu. The menu items are in both English and Chinese. The food is not absolutely perfect but it's definitely the best Chinese food I've had in Cleveland. What we've tried so far: - Japanese soft tofu dish (#34) is _awesome_ as Fung said in her review - the tofu is delicious and soft and the sauce is fairly authentic. - The salt baked shrimp (#11) is a great dish too - fried goodness with just the right amount of spice. - The beef ho fun noodles (#76) had a nice flavor and it was good except they did not premix the noodles with the sauce, which caused the noodles to incompletely absorb the sauce. - The fish pan fried in brown sauce (#42) had a very tasty sauce that was *different* from the other two but the texture of the fish was sort of flaky (I would say a bad choice of fish) - The bubble tea (well, more of a smoothie with boba) was what really surprised me. The boba was soft and cooked correctly, and the tea was not overwhelmingly sweet like other places in Cleveland. It was actually pretty decent! If this place was in Los Angeles I would give it a 4. But for Cleveland, well, we might be coming here instead of Wonton Gourmet from now on. read more

Every time I'm in Solon for work, I eat at least one meal here. They have the best wonton soup I've ever eaten & the entrees are huge (I can turn it into 2 meals). The wontons in the wonton soup are huge. And there are 6 of them. The broth is very tasty & is full of little pieces of cabbage that add more substance to the broth. Fantastic. I usually get a Hunan version of chinese entree. This last time I got the Hunan shrimp - medium heat. There were plenty of BIG shrimp in the dish, good baby corns & carrots, etc. The seasoning was tasty. You can order carry out & they will have your meal ready in 10 minutes, or you can dine in. Either way, you'll get a chance to stand next to their lobster tanks, which are situated by the front door. Always a treat. They have a very nice, modern dining room with wait staff. This is an upscale Chinese place. Next time you think of going to PF Changs, go here instead & support the local economy. read more

My family and I just moved in the neighborhood and wanted to find a local Chinese restaurant which this one came recommended by a friend. We typically order enough good so we have leftovers for lunch the next day. Me and my wife ended up getting sick half way through the meal and had to through all the leftovers out. The egg rolls were extremely greasy and the sesame chicken should have been labeled sesame breading. I don't know if we caught them on an off night but we will not be coming back. Hunan east on Richmond road across from Richmond mall is twice as better for half the price. read more

I've always ordered take out from here but it's always been hot and delicious! I definitely recommend the general Taos as it's always the right amount of spicy. It is a little pricey compared to others in the area but the portions are a good size and the food is great here! read more

I've heard many people rave about this place so i decided to drive 30mins out to check it out. First, if you like authentic asian food, get the Japanese Soft Tofu with golden mushroom and pork (from the 'asian' menu). Wonton Soup (3.5): many yelpers raved about the wonton soup here so i had to get it. the broth. The broth was better than other asian restaurants but it tasted like water with some soy sauce. Now, the part where i know why people love it is because for once, there's actually substantial meat in the wonton and it's NOT just wonton and soup. there's cabbage, scallions, etc.. it was actually your typical chinese soup. Given all that though... it wasn't an authentic wonton soup that I used to get back in Taiwan. Japanese Soft Tofu with Golden Mushroom and Pork in Oyster Sauce (4): I got this off the 'asian only' menu and i cannot tell you how much I appreciate chinese restaurants that have japanese soft tofu (i usually call them egg tofu). the only other place in cleveland that I know has this tofu is Wonton Gourmet's Jade Tofu (a MUST TRY). Anyway, i loved this dish. It was a bit salty and not entirely authentic tasting but it was worth getting. i'll be back for it. Twice Cooked Pork (3): This is a very authentic dish back in Taiwan and sadly, hunan solon didn't make it well. Don't get me wrong, if you don't know how it should taste like, you will love it. But if you know what it should taste like, you'll find hunan solon's too sweet and the pork is sliced wrong. Twice cooked pork should not be ground pork but slices of pork. Either way, the flavors were there... it just wasn't twice cooked pork. read more

I recommend this restaurant for two reasons great takeout and the restaurant is amazing customer service is a one even the drinks are good they're very personal and they like to get to know the customers. I frequent this restaurant often because of my busy schedule the atmosphere is very clean and the staff is always kind read more

Strip mall? Okay, we were hungry. REALLY hungry. Checked out the mobile Yelp reviews, stopped in and were amazed! Quality, quantity, service. Everything was great. They bring you one menu if you are an Ugly American (yeah, I'm looking at YOU, face in the mirror!) but you can ask for the REAL menu, the Chinese one. Don't worry; next to the Chinese symbols are English symbols. I mean letters. Fortunately, I was in the company of two Asian women, so I was welcomed by proxy into the inner sanctum of the "other menu." Whoa. Every previous post has covered this already, but trust me: it is so, SO good, on all levels. My fortune cookie summed it all up: "Things may soon get much, much worse." And my lucky numbers? Blank. read more

Your typical, run of the mill asian-american fast food restaurant.

This is a good place to go if you are getting a little tired of the Anglo-centric food in the area and are looking for some spice. The amount of food is HUGE. Seriously. I made 3 big meals out of 1 order of the Empress Chicken and I am an eater. It is almost ludicrous. As far as a the quality- it is delicious. This is a little gem in the heart of an Industrial park. read more

Service smh. We went for lunch in the middle of the day no one was there and we were completely rushed the entire time. The waitress stood over us as we paid and reached over us while waiting to clear plates. Food was ok.but service was very annoying. read more

Cheap and Delicious! They have really great dishes there. I usually do the Hunan or Szechuan Beef or Chicken, so what I get is usually pretty much the same, but I love it! Also, friends I go with love what they get, and it's usually pretty different from my stuff. In fact, one co-worker upon hearing that we're going back to the restaurant exclaims "HUNAN HUNAN HUNAN!". Very fun to watch. The restaurant itself isn't much to look at as the other posts say, but it's a great deal and is fast at lunch (except for the check for some reason). Anyway, I'll be back there soon, see you there! read more

Delicious, high-quality Chinese food. I went for lunch, and the prices were very reasonable and the portions were just right. Peking Chicken was tasty, crispy, sweet and spicy. Also had a spring roll and the Korean spare ribs. I was impressed by everything. read more

We have been coming here for 20 years. The food is usually great and the service is speedy. We came here for Father's Day as this is my dad's favorite restaurant. It took them an hour to get our food. We talked to them about this poor service and they were extremely rude. They didn't do anything for us. read more

Very disappointed at this place with a recent visit. There are not many options in Solon area for Chinese food, and this one is close to work. We went for lunch. The gentleman who sat us had nice suit on, but was not polite. He wanted to seat us at a booth by the kitchen, and I asked if we can sit the other one down the isle a bit farther. He replied "what's the difference". I have never got this response ever from a host. The food was very generic. If you like high sodium, oil, load of sauce typical American Chinese food, you probably will like it. But not my taste. It's far from real Chinese food. We asked for separate check upon ordering but still got one check at the end. I asked for brown rice with extra charge but still got fried rice. Nothing went right. The guy came back with water and check with tons of bad attitude. Not recommended. read more

Was seated quickly. And got my food quickly. But the food left much to be desired. The spicy Thai Tom Yum was not spicy and was mostly broth and was bland. Same with the shrimp in Ginger sauce not spicy at all. Never did get a refill on my soda. Even the cookie was stale. The only thing that was hot was the temperature of the restaurant. read more

They do not want black coming in the restaurant the lady hunan was nice to white girl when it was my turn all she kept saying was I hear you I hear you after making wait 10 minutes the food is over price never again will I order from this place read more

The food here is pretty good. I usually get lunch take out at work. One of my favorite things is the soups. Both the hot and sour soup and the tom yum soup are great. Their portions are large and they're lunch prices are fairly low. The lunch prices do seem to creep up over time. Their noodle dishes or ok. Their fried rice is different than I've ever seen. The rice is stil white and seems like it's probably only fried for a very short amount of time and then some mixed vegetables thrown in. Kung bo and szechuan chicken are some of my favorite dishes. One word of caution, at most Chinese places the general tso's checken can always be counted on to be about the same and a safe choice. The flavor of the general tso's here is good but it's weird pieces of chicken almost like mystery meat. I prefer to stick to the non fried chicken dishes. read more

I rarely review restaurants but I have to say this was the most bland Chinese food that I have tasted. I'm a bit of a foodie. I asked for no MSG but the natural flavors should shine. If I roast a boneless chicken breast with a few seasonings it's definitely more flavorful than this. Very disappointed. read more

Best Chinese in Solon! I've loved everything I've ordered and frequently go for lunch or dinner. They have a unique slightly sweet cinnamon egg roll sauce that is delicious. The cracking rice/corn soup is amazing, and the portions are generous, even at lunch. The wait staff is attentive, and the food arrives quickly. I frequently go at lunch time, and there is never a wait (a rarity in Solon) and their lunch specials are reasonable ($6 and $7 entrees). The decor is really pretty and upscale as well, a great place to take clients. I've even heard people come in, describe dishes that are not on the menu, and get what they ordered. Takeout is available as well. The only downside is that this place is a little hard to find (off Aurora Rd, near the movie theatre/KFC/Slam Jam's/Srta Bonita's) read more

I was told this is the best Chinese in Cleveland and it probably is, but when you are use to west coast Chinese, it is par for the course. I had sesame chicken, fried rice, soup and an egg roll to go and took it back to the hotel. So, I only experienced the front counter and the food, my thoughts: The guy at the counter carried on a 10 minute conversation while two people waited in line. He nicely apologized, saying it was an old friend. It was mildly frustrating, and the lady behind me got angry. As for the food, the chicken was soggy, and kind of bland. I realize I took the dish to go so the sogginess is whatever, but I only ate 1/4 of the ample serving because honestly it wasn't that good. The spring roll was typical. The winner, the hot and sour soup. I have had better (not in Cleveland) but I have had worse. read more

A yummy and fast treat from the far east! A friend and I dropped into Hunan in hopes of just a fair at best lunch. They proved us wrong by serving it up hot and fresh. I started out with a bowl of the egg drop soup, which was the perfect temperature, golden hue, and consistency. After the soup was finished, a beautiful crunchy vegetarian egg role made it over to our table. This little nugget of pure joy was surprisingly fresh and the fillings were not overly soaked by the grease. On to the main course... I ordered the hunan chicken which was saucy and spicy!!! A total win win combo for me. The vegetables the accompanied the chicken were crispy and delicious! My friend's meal was also well reviewed on his end. The rice that came with the entree was a little bland, which was the only negative of the entire experience. read more

Pretty good Americanized Chinese food. They have a separate menu for real Chinese food on their website. I didn't try it, so I can't rate it. I had the Hunan beef and it wasn't bad. Not too greasy. It's beef mixed with baby corn, carrots, broccoli, and mushrooms. read more

Authentic Southern Chinese food. Great taste! Price is medium high but you will get what you paid for. Lobster was cooked with special sauce. I will definitely order another next time. Also, if you like sea cucumber, the combination with tofu and scallops was unforgettable! You really need to try it yourself and will not be regretful! read more

I ordered General Tso's. The chicken and sauce were delicious. The fried rice was not good. It looked and tasted like a the frozen bags of fried rice you see in your grocer's freezer. Peas, carrots with no color or flavor. read more

I am a regular here. But Yesterday I had a very bad experience and they acted like they could care less. Of course they were mobbed because it was Christmas and all the members of my tribe jammed the take out as well as the sit down tables. Some of our food was cold. The first meal came out OK but not really hot....Then 15 minutes the second meal came out totally cold. We sent it back but it never came out again. Then 30 minutes later the next 3 meals came out. They were hot but we could tell they were made wrong. We knew that since we have been to this restaurant before and have ordered them before. The people next to us ordered 4 meals and they came out all together and theirs looked great. So it was just that the kitchen could not get their act together. This can happen occasionally like on Christmas day BUT... they still made us pay and we hardly touched our food. We did not expect a totally free meal as we ate the soup and we shared the first meal. We asked to speak to the manager but he was too busy to show up. I have not done this in a very long time but "NO TIP FOR YOU ! " Or waitress was in La La land so she was partially to blame. I think I will go to Hunan Of The Falls. They are better equipped. It will be worth the longer drive as I now have a bad taste in my mouth. read more

Scallops were rubber, asked for Chardonnay was brought white zin, asked for plain soup instead was brought with lettuce & pork. Do not recommend. read more

I went there for lunch yesterday with my friend. We both were pretty impressed. The combo or whatever is $7. You get your choice of a main dish with rice and either a wonton soup, eggroll or something else. We both were really happy with our meals. The portions were big enough to eat only half. Today I had the other half at lunch at the work cafeteria after sitting for a day. It stood the test of time and was still good. I think it is really good for the price. The service was pretty friendly too. read more

Ate here 3 times in a week. Convenient to my hotel stay and delicious Kung pao with brown rice meal. Good service. Could relax and enjoy my meal. read more

This was my first and last time ordering from this restaurant. I got home, opened up my bags and was missing a rice.... then proceed to open up the sweet sour chicken, and found a wet hair in the side of my food. We chose to order here because our local restaurant we love wasn't open. I also ordered chicken lettuce wraps- they were so gross, we threw away. They looked like dog vomit. read more
