My family recently visited Mr. Chen's for the first time, but definitely not the last. This is our new #1 Asian restaurant. Why: 1) Food quality is outstanding, and above any other we've had. Out of everything we ordered (four separate meals), the Hungarian beef was our collective favorite. 2) Portion size vs cost. We couldn't believe the amount of food for the price. 3) The service was outstanding. If you are looking for a 'date night' atmosphere, this is probably not the place. It is inside a grocery store that you walk through to get in. We actually liked that factor and found it 'authenticating'. Finally, one thing we witnessed that we will return to participate in is the Karaoke rooms (3). We saw a large group of all ages eating and singing. How fun?!?! read more

Great food,huge portions and great service in a much nicer atmosphere than you might expect from being located inside the corner of a grocery store. We had hot green honey tea (delightful), taro milk tea with coconut strands (yummy!), spring rolls (as expected), seafood hot and sour soup (a giant bowl that produced two cups each for three people), spicy tofu (divine), spicy beef noodle soup, and hot crispy shrimp. 10/10 would come again! read more

Visited MR.CHEN'S Restaurant yesterday for lunch and it was sooooo good. If you want authentic Chinese food (they also have some Americanized dishes), this is the place to go! Even the service is 10/10! We ordered: * Braised Tofu: Deep fried tofu then braised in a garlicky sauce-- so good! * Mongolian Beef: I love Mongolian Beef and I haven't found one comparable to AB Grocery in Hattiesburg but Mr Chen's is a close second! It was so tender and not all onions! Love the flavor!! * Sauteed Pea Leaves: I could eat the whole plate if I could! Slightly al dente with garlic. You may think it needs salt but it does not because it's meant to be eaten with a salty protein and I love the natural vegetable sauteed flavor anyway that Chinese dishes have. #tinzeats #nomnomnom read more

Great authentic Chinese cuisine. Great for dine in or carry out. The portions are generous and the prices are reasonable. The service is courteous. I love the grocery store next to the restaurant. Shopped there several times. read more

We went because of the reviews and we are happy we did. My Brother in Law is a Veg person so he got a Tofu dish and he loved it. It was such a huge plate and I would say enough for 2. He pretty much polished it off so he must have really enjoyed it. My husband got a spicy 3 way dish and he said is was really good and really spicy. I got Chicken and mixed veggies and it seemed a bit salty but I really liked it. We got egg rolls which were average but good. I did ask for a little side of rice to go for my left overs but when she came back she said they ran out and were making more. Ok so not a good idea to run out of rice during dinner hour on a Sunday night. Waitresses was extremely nice and I was understanding. All in all, we were very happy with our first visit. Icing on the cake was the store. I could shop there for hours. So much to look at and buy. We will be back. read more

4 stars for the Restaurant, 5 (more if I could finagle the system!) for the food market. We visited recently, looking for decent Chinese meal. We found it, in the form of Cashew Shrimp and Kung Pao Combo. I also had the Seafood Hot and Sour soup, which I ranked only OK. The service was good. Not much ambiance - the restaurant is inside the market. The real star is the Market - incredible variety of crabs and other live seafood (eels, etc). Chinese food that I've never had - it was an interesting experience just walking through the aisles, looking for things we could bring home. read more

Good food, good service, reasonable prices. The grocery store is also cool to walk through. I ordered the sizzling veg and tofu with seaweed salad on the side. My husband ordered General Tso's chicken. We would have preferred it spicier, but it was good. The menu is extensive and has pictures. I would come again. Easy access off I-55. read more

By far my favorite Chinese restaurant!! Service is always good and the food is by far the best in Mississippi.

Delicious breed! Great service. As you have it authentic Chinese experience. We will definitely be back.

Overall 4.5 Stars Ambiance 4 Stars - It has been at least a year since I've been at the recently remodeled Asian store and restaurant. They have expanded the sq footage and it feels more open. I stopped by to do some shopping and then my stomach grumbled due to the pleasant scent of Chinese food permeating the air. So I diverted to the restaurant before shopping and was greeted immediately w friendly smile from the employee. The restaurant has a lot of table booths, round table to accommodate larger group and was open and airy. When boys, it could get a little bit loud. Service 4.75 Stars: The server was pleasant, friendly and smiled a lot. She and the other servers were efficient in bringing the food and drinks. Food 4.5 Stars: I ordered from the Lunch Menu. Also, the lunch price was pretty reasonable for the amount of food served. 1. Appetizers- Shrimp Dim Sum 4.75 Stars. I would given it a 5 star rating but you are served only Four instead of Six. The shrimp were plump and fresh while the thinly wrapper were practically "see through". It had a hint chewiness and the shrimp juice was mild and pleasant. Tip: Request for hot chili oil to enhance the flavor for the soy sauce and shrimp. 2. Kung Pao Beef 4.25 stars - served w white rice and egg roll. The Kung Pao was seasoned well with the soy, oyster, Asian seasoning and chili. However, the spiciness could have been higher for me. Thank the Lord for hot chili oil! The veggies and peanuts were fresh, crispy and crunchy. The peanuts retained its crunch. However, the egg roll was ok - 2.5 Stars. It was oily and bland. I was impressed with the food that I ordered more as take out for my wife and myself. 1. Pad Thai Combo meats - I figured "why not". I've been missing our favorite Thai place and I saw it on the menu. I opened the container and smelled wonderful! 2. Kung Pao Chicken w fried rice - we figured we would try chicken and the fried rice instead. I highly recommend the restaurant and store. Enjoy read more

Mr Chen's - Jackson - General Tso - Chinese Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

I read the reviews and I was excited to try out Mr Chen's, for me it did not live up to the hype. It wasn't terrible but I probably wouldn't go back. I was in town for work and I usually check out several yelp categories: local favorites, Italian, steakhouses and Chinese. I had the General Tso's and the chicken was tough, chewy and the sauce was like jelly (too thick). Also, no lemon for my iced tea but I can let that go I guess. read more

Best oriental food in town! Very fresh, big portions and excellent flavor. I highly recommend the chicken lo mein :) read more

The food and service is great and the restaurant has a nice atmosphere. We have a family of 7 and we all like multiple things so so we ordered several dishes and shared. They have lazy susan's on the tables so it's perfect for family style dining. The market is a treasure in the heart of Jackson. They have so many hard to find ingredients and lots of cook ware etc. read more

We love Mr.Chen's, don't be shy to order "out of the norm" dishes. Our new favorite is Mr.Chen's Crispy tofu with bean blend. Honestly one of the top dishes I have ever had, delish !!! read more

Mr. Chen's is reliable comfort food. Soups tend to be overly salty, but everything else is great. I love the General Tso's, orange chicken, and kung pao. read more

I asked for a spicy tofu dish but they made it non spicy. Would've given a 4/5 but for this I will bump it down to 2/5.

Mr. Chen's has the best Chinese food anywhere in the metro area. The staff is very friendly and the service is great. Try the Duck Rice. Wow. read more

After seeing a recent TikTok review, I decided to give Mr. Chen's a try. A group from our office went, and we were not disappointed! The market was much larger than I ever thought it would be & included very unique finds. Once we made our way to the restaurant, we all had a different lunch special and it was clear that the dumplings and egg rolls are all made fresh, not frozen like you typically find in the Jackson area. Top off the great food with wonderful service and that was our experience. Highly recommend ! read more

First visit and I was pleased. The service was good and so was the food. Was there for lunch and found the portion was more than adequate. Found the atmosphere comfortable and relaxed. The kitchen supply store has many items that wouldn't be available at general large box stores not to mention the food market with many interesting items not commonly available. read more

The Wife & I really, really like this restaurant! The food is the most authentic Chinese food we've had in the USA. Great! The service is very good! I like the restaurant it's like a food court attached to the import store. We highly recommend this place! read more

Great place to get some good Chinese food. They give a huge portion of food so it can easily be split into multiple meals. The only downside is the shrimp in the fried rice wasn't super great so I'd just get the regular or chicken. But overall, really good! read more

Christmas Eve, Eve visit. Spent some time wandering in the grocery store and the dry goods market. Huge and very varied Asian market with a fresh vegetable and fruit section. Fresh fish too. Restaurant was great! Servers were very nice and helpful. Very reasonable prices and big helpings. All of us took left overs home. Restaurant was clean and so were the Restrooms. Great experience and highly recommended! read more

Consistently good food and friendly service. We are usually able to sit in a booth. Give this place a shot.

The service was fast and the place has really upgraded. I was impressed. The food was hot had a little kick and the appetizers were fresh.

Met some friends for lunch. Mr. Chen's service is always top notch but this time it wasn't up to par. Our server had difficulty understanding us as he spoke very broken English. He managed to get our order correct but we were unable to understand him when we asked about certain dishes. Another issue I had was how our food came out. There was three of us in our party. Two of us ordered appetizers (I ordered the egg drop soup and the other diner ordered some sticky buns). Soup came out early which was good. But the buns came out about 8 minutes after our entrees arrived. And we had to ask about them before they brought them out. Two of entrees came out together and it was over 10 minutes before the third entree arrived. No explanation nor an apology. But food was outstanding as always. Mr. Chen's menu offers a great variety that you should be able to find a dish that you will fall in love with. The food is very authentic and this place is THE best Chinese restaurant in Jackson. And don't miss the chance to visit the Asian grocery store there too. Many great treasures to be found there read more
