I'm a Carle Place resident and this is my go to spot. It's not going to blow your mind but you'll be satisfied and happy. Just a solid take out Chinese joint and is consistently delivering on taste. Fried rice and lo mein is always on point and I enjoy their moo shu pork. read more

My friend loved the food there it actually was good but getting a stale egg roll ruined my mood .

I stopped in real quick for a pork eggroll and some shrimp dumplings. I didn't expect much because I've been very disappointed wherever I go for Chinese takeout lately. I was pleasantly surprised to actually see some pork in the egg roll. And the shrimp dumplings were super tasty. Steamed perfectly. And their dumpling sauce was yummy. I would definitely try some other things on the menu next time I'm in this neighborhood. read more

Do NOT use your credit card here. Two times our credit card was used to purchase over $3,000 worth of airline and hotel/travel purchases. Each time after we purchased from here. It happened near easter time and then again this week. While the food is fantastic. It is not worth the credit card scam. read more

Easy to order and quick delivery. The chicken and broccoli lunch tasted good but was definitely heavier on the broccoli than the chicken. It was decent for a reasonably priced quick lunch option, but it wasn't anything outstanding, and I did wish it didn't skimp as much on the meat. read more

this WAS my go to restaurant for chinese ...the last time i ordered from grubhub one of the dishes i ordered was chow mein which says on the grubhub menu that it is a noodle dish ( google chow mein,its a noodle dish) . when i received my order there were no noodles in the dish , so grubhub credited me for the dish ( i placed a large order) . the restaurant called me on my cell and started yelling at me that chow mein does not have noodles ! ( although the menu clearly states a noodle dish) and i shouldnt have been credited. the next time i tried to order from this restaurant, not thinking that they would take a customers complaint personally . i waited the hour delivery time they stated and when i called the restaurant to find out where my delivery was , she said we are not delivering to you we cancelled your order i would not order from this restaurant this is terrible customer service. this is no way to run a business! read more

Old School Chinese food with the styrofoam containers right on Carle Place; HOW BOUT THAT!! personally I must disclose that I am not a fan of quote unquote Chinese food. But old school Chinese food stands in a category on its own right next to DimSum on the list of things I rarely eat but secretly love. So just top that off with an afternoon of pre vacation shopping with my mom and kids at the stores right next door. Stop it. We enjoyed perfectly prepared shrimp fried rice with chicken wings, chicken lo mien, egg rolls and beef and broccoli doused in as much duck sauce as my little body could handle! Yes the styrofoam shocked me- but it didn't stop me from indulging in lunch with the family in a small shop with like 4 tables and a soda machine. The chef host and waiter displayed wonderful service and managed to take care of everything and everyone without any complaints seemingly all by herself. I didn't know how much I needed this and am totally JEALOUS of the folks who live near by bc I'm pretty sure Friday nights the phone lines must be jam packed with to go orders bc this place has really decent old school Chinese food. Tasted fresh. Sent me down memory lane when my second grade teacher took me to china town and I discovered what Chinese food actually was. Perfect end to a happy sunny Saturday. read more

The restaurant food is not fresh! so bad cooking! The corn tasted bad and the rice was hard. read more

Fast and easy to order! The food was tasty! It is better to pay cash cause they do have a fee for using a credit card.

This chick was so NASTY. Someone told me two different prices over the phone and when I got there it was not what was said over the phone. She was RUDE, RUDE, RUDE. Slammed the pen down, slammed the receipt down. Yelling in Chinese. Probably putting a curse on me. Her behavior was DISGUSTING and I will never step foot in there again. She should be ashamed but she's not. She is just a miserable crappy POS. Wow, what a POS. read more

Came in for lunch, ordered 2 lunch specials and didn't get my soups for both orders and took a can of coke-cola instead. She made a big deal and changed me $5 for the can of soda which is not the ultimate problem. Main problem even in the end I paid the $5 for the can of soda , she belittled me in front of other customers. I will not come here again and wouldn't recommend others to come and spend money that will end up getting belittled in front of others for a can of soda. read more

ZERO STARS. Ordered tonight. They got my order wrong. called to let them know, women YELLED at me and hung up in my ear. Their mistake, Mothers Day no dinner. So many better places without the attitude. We won't be back. They do not deserve my patronage. Find a restaurant that apologizes when they make the wrong order, not freak out and hang up on a paying customer! deserves zero stars. read more

Nice little take out place in the strip mall. I disagree though with fellow Yelpers on portions being generous, but the upside is the food is quite delicious In 2008 this place won an award for top 100 takeout places in the area. There is a picture of the owner with the famous TV chef personality "Martin Yan" as he receives his trophy that year. The trophy is displayed in the restaurant as well. Great food and moderately priced, you can't go wrong. read more

Very reliable and FAST. Prices are good too. Never a problem here. P.S. I do not think the "took to long to deliver" should be an issue. It should not effect the food quality. You're not the only one that orders Chinese food on the weekends, you morons. Yeah- it will probably take longer than you think it will. read more

We placed an advanced order around 4, to be delivered at 6. They came at 5:30 (we only live about a mile away, if that). Good serving sizes for the price but a piece of the pork in my fried rice was basically all bone. -1 for rushing our order -1 (1.5 if I could) for the bone! read more

This Takeout Restaurant is one of the best in terms of taste. I have enjoyed my food each and every time I have visited this place!!! The shrimp with broccoli is really tasty it has great flavor without the greasy after taste. The shrimp fried rice is excellent The Crab Rangoon is perfection The Lomein was very good and so was the Fried Chicken I would definitely buy food from here again and again as a person who enjoys takeout Chinese food!! read more

I think the negative reviews here are about the service, not the food. Ordered takeout here past 9pm. The food did take a long time to come out, but I prefer that since it could be because they are freshly cooking the food. That's so much better than eating pre-cooked food. Order the boneless ribs ($11.25) and pork fried rice, it's the best in the area (this place is the best Chinese takeout, I think, in the neighborhood). Wonton soup ($1.85) needs more meat inside though, it was mostly dough. read more

It's reasonable option for a Chinese takeout option. Definitely one of the better takeout spots in the area. Not Flushing level but does the job. Not sure why the 3 star average. read more

This is my new go-to for takeout chinese. Been there twice now and have not been disappointed. Food tastes clean and not greasy.

Reviewing a take-out place is more about self-awareness and multi-cultural diplomacy than food, but Mr. Chen's Kitchen is straight and so we stick to the food this review. It first appears as merely a strip mall take-out place in suburbia thus sure to disappoint. Judgement be spared, for the inside is fine, like a cleanly kept take-out decore. Food is overall neither too greasy nor too oily nor too sugary nor over-sauced, thankfully. Standard take-out menu is posted, you know the drill. Service is unusually attentive for a take-out place, largely owing to its suburban nature which also means their English is unusually well supported. A pleasingly quality take-out experience, in summary. read more

This has become our go-to Chinese takeout spot since King House changed owners a few years ago. Pretty standard menu. We always pickup, so I can't speak for the delivery. read more

I love this place. Their food is amazing but they have trouble taking orders. I have ordered pork fried rice with no vegetables and each time I receive my order there are always vegetables in the rice. The delivery guy has an attitude also. Other than that the food is amazing! read more

chef were talking alot with out mask while cooking 。 just cant imagine what's inside my food. And there's no fork or chopsticks Won't come again. read more

Place is not clean but the food was at average and as tasty as expected. With the price it is okay anyway.

OH MR CHEN'S! I weep for you. So yummy. So nommy. I ate you every night as a broke college student at Hofstra University. Only twice in 4 years did you fail me and serve me over/under/something was wrong with it cooked Chinese. And that's okay, because you sure as hell made up for it the other 5282331 bazillion times. Boneless Spare Ribs = mmmmmm, Wonton Soup = mmmmm, Friend Wontons = mmmmm, House Fried Rice = yeaaaaahhhh, Pork with Mixed Vegetables = ohhhh laaaaawd, Chicken With Broccoli = MY ADDICTION!!!!! I tried to give you up for lent, which was hilarious because that didn't even come close to happening, you were so great you made me into a bad Catholic. Everytime someone is visiting me from NY i beg them to order some of your food and to freeze and bring it to me :'( THE ONLY CON WITH YOU??? = Your delivery man has long finger nails, which is kinda creepy. read more

Ordered a spar rib and shrimp toast on their website. Rub is $10.25 but when I picked it up at the store, they charged me $11.25...really? read more

For all you business travelers- this is the only Chinese takeout place nearby that accepts AMEX!!! Just a heads up. Mongolian beef was good, house fried rice was good, egg drop soup was good. I ordered chicken chow mein and there were no noodles in it. It was this weird chicken and onion white jelly concoction. If I ever come back here, I'm sticking to the basics. read more

This place usually delivers about an hour late. I have given them multiple chances which was foolish on my part.

I haven't ordered here in years but did last night. It was ok. Skip the skimpy egg rolls. The fried rice was good as was the sezuan chicken and bbqu ribs. No one liked the lo mein. Pricing is reasonable. read more

Came in for lunch during a shopping trip. I got a lunch special (chicken with mixed vegetables with brown rice) and it was very good and fresh. Mom got a lunch special also (chicken with broccoli with white rice) and she loved hers as well. I will definitely come back in when I'm in the area. read more

Food is good and portions are generous, no doubt on that. The place however is run down: it's old, there are no lights in the kitchen and workers don't use appropriate working cloths. I wish Mr Chen to revamp the appearance of his shop and it's definitely a 5 stars. read more

Foods standard hole in the wall Chinese food which hits the spot when you want a greasy egg roll. As long as you like it cold. 45min delivery means 2.5hrs. And then lying to you on the phone. Decent if you can pickup, but if you're hungry or have kids waiting to eat, nope. read more

Had take out from there to tonight. Excellent ! In short, the food was as fresh and delicious as the very best I have ever had--including my 7 trips to China. We had veggies and shrimp, beef veggies, and chicken and veggies. And friend rice. I'll be back! read more

Long time no yelp! Decided today to revisit Mr. Chen's in Carle Place because I recalled getting fried rice and chicken chow mein from there and it was pretty dang good. I'm happy to say it did not fail me, and it's a much shorter drive than my usual spot. I couldn't get over the freshness of the vegetables in the chow mein. There was some crunch, I love that! The sauce was flavorful, the chicken pieces plentiful. The fried rice was good although had a slightly smoky taste I don't care for and lacked pieces of scrambled egg. But again, fresh! The bean sprouts had a nice snap and overall it was not as greasy as my usual spot. Lots of pieces of pork, too. Here, like everywhere else, they have COVID protocols in place-no dining in-pick up or delivery only, and they meet you at an improvised counter with your food. Definitely going back the next time a craving hits! read more

First time ordering from this place, may be the last. I always order dumplings to get an idea about a Chinese food restaurant. Let's face it, if they can't make them, the rest of the menu is most likely fair at best. Well the theory rang true at this place. I ordered General Tso's chicken with my dumpling order. The dumplings were ok, not the best I've eaten. But the General Tso's was awful. I intentionally left off the word chicken because there was hardly any in all the pieces I tried. They were all breading with literally shreds of chicken inside. I also ordered scallion pancakes which were dripping oil most likely due to the fact that they were not fried but deep fried. Such a disappointment. read more

Loved it. So we were in Carl Place and were headed to the pizza place in the corner and just happened to notice Chens. So we went in for lunch and ordered 2 "small" orders of food. It was very reasonable $. Lo and behold, out came these nice sized plates of delicious food. If ever in the neighborhood again we would not hesitate to stop in again. A great value for great food! read more

I ordered General Tso Chicken with fried rice and broccoli it came with a egg roll I never got to taste. The food was fresh and nicely seasoned. The rice was fluffy as well as tasted good. I would order from them again they had a big variety of Chinese food as well as Thai. Keep up the good work. read more

Oh Mr. Chen's... you and I have a love hate relationship. You're tasty and inexpensive, but you aren't all that close and tend to take a VERY long time to prepare your cuisine. You have helped make some of those long days at school go by a little faster. Your student specials are awesome and you give a nice amount of food with each dish. Apparently you have some plaques there for being in the top 100 chinese food places on LI (or something along those lines) BUT your sesame chicken and your general tsao chicken taste almost identical, which is disappointing and makes me question the validity of said plaques. Guess we shall never know for sure Chens but rest assured, I shall be back. (Thus ends what will probably be my oddest review yet). In all seriousness this place is pretty good and worth checking out. read more
