Food is good. Sesame chicken is not too sweet (most restaurants make it too sweet). I asked for it with light sauce (not too much sauce) Chicken with broccoli was flavorful, and had a lot of chicken. Fried rice wasn't too flavorful but had a lot of egg, meat, peas, etc. I'd order again read more

Ordered uber eats to work. They had a BOGO deal! Staff did a great job packaging food. The soup was separate from sushi which was appreciated also had great presentation. Taste, portion and quality were great! The 3 roll lunch special even came with wonton soup and the tornado roll was delicious! I had this for lunch and dinner. Highly recommend. read more

This restaurant used to be good before their fire remodel. Now for lunch you get a extremely small portion and extreme amount of rice. No more egg roll with lunch and their 3 dollar egg rolls aren't great, the hot and sour soup isn't great. My eyes swelled after eating it the next day. I called to tell them about how little food I received. They offered me a free lunch however after the swelling of the eyes I can't go back. I'm really disappointed because the old owners were great but the new people fall really short. read more

From NJ, we had an appointment with a veterinary cardiologist today in Malvern and I just had to run into Giant on the way back home for some donuts. No donut pics, they're gone! But we also grabbed takeout at Oriental Pearl in West Chester. THE best wonton soup and Chinese food! Pepper Steak and Chicken Mei Fun. And a couple of shrimp spring rolls. Soooooo good!! read more

Dined in for lunch. Absolutely horrible experience. Took forever to take order Forever for food to come out. (And they were not that busy). Then got an order wrong and had to wait even more. And then no apology. Never going back. Did note that another group of diners of majority ethnicity and greater maturity were taken care of with great solicitousness. In fact, other people who arrived later were served before us. Did not know what to make of how we were treated. Guess they don't want our business ?! Needless to say, never ever going back (probably what they would like). read more

Many Asian restaurants seem to go through the cycle of new-to-old-to-disappointing. A new one opens, hires a great chef with excellent ingredients and gradually declines over time into something over-priced and underwhelming. We were quite disappointed with our visits to Oriental Pearl before their fire and reconstruction. We returned today after a long time away and were quite impressed. The decor was much nicer and we hoped the food would be too. The menu has been redone as mich as the interior and we decided to select from the lunch menu. Soup, rice and an entree for $11.50 per person. The food was very tasty. While the Hot and Sour soup was mostly broth the flavor was excellent. The fried rice was also very good as was the Hunan Beef. Lunch was a very good value and I would recommend this to anyone now in hopes it won't follow the usual cycle of decline. read more

My dinner was delicious and served warm. The new restaurant remodel is beautiful and enjoyable surrounding in which to dine.

Nice place for some of the best pan-Asian food in West Chester. They had a kitchen fire but have rebuilt and are back better than ever! Family owned and operated, good service though a tad pricey IMHO. read more

Incredibly slow service. We were served separately- my spouse finished and them 20 minutes later my dinner arrived. Food is just fair. We won't be back. read more

The best Asian restaurant in Chester County. We couldn't wait for them to reopen after their flood. Hallelujah and here we come! Our favorite dine in or pick up place for Asian food. Rich & Judy read more

Ordered for delivery well before closing and my order was canceled with no explanation

Slow but thankfully inattentive service. It was like we were invisible. It took forever to have the order taken and then another eternity to get the food. They were not that busy. read more

Delicious food, friendly staff...top notch! I especially love their Thai dishes. New Ambiance too, completely remodeled.

It was my first time ordering from Oriental Pearl. We ordered takeout and our order was ready within 20 minutes. The food was good. I really enjoyed the beef chow fun noodles and I very much appreciated that they put the walnut cream sauce for the shrimp on the side so it didn't get all slimy in the to-go container. The bbq ribs were very good too, just a hint of sweetness even though I was expecting them to be more sweet. I would order from here again! read more

The sushi was delicious, both the Futo Maki and the TNT rolls I would definitely get again. Though 2 pieces of the Futo Maki looked like they were just kind of throw in and they were barely holding themselves together. The sauteed String Bean w/Shrimp was good, but it only comes with 4 pieces of shrimp. It was fairly cheap, so we honestly wouldn't mind paying a few dollars more but just add more shrimp to it. The only major complaint I have is that the person working at the front counter needs to check their attitude. I cut them some slack because they seemed really busy, but I almost dropped them to three stars just for the interaction. While I was waiting for my food another customer that got his order and was on his way out stopped to complain to me about their attitude. read more

Hands down my favorite place to get shrimp fried rice. I also love that they are BYOB and don't charge a corking fee.

The food is very good, the prices are reasonable and you can get most entrees as half orders. I wish they went back to the mustard they gave you in little cups. read more

Agood local favorite. Not the best Chinese food, but definitely acceptable. Service is mediocre but it is a BYOB.

When the food is good...it is very, very good. Sometimes, it is not as good. By that I mean it is too oily...way too oily! To wit, I'm trying to eat an egg roll that I needed to roll and press through several pieces of paper towels and still oily. I must add that it did taste a bit fishy - Shrimpfish. Our favorite order is Eggplant Chicken w/garlic sauce and while coping with the oily egg roll, I see way too much oil on the entrée. OP has the best Chinese food in our area. I just wish it wasn't so spotty. The staff is great all the time. read more

Overall, my first experience at Oriental Pearl was pretty good. First, the complimentary tea. Yay! It's very infrequent that restaurants give out free tea anymore, so this was a pleasant surprise. I ordered the edamame and General Tso's chicken. I asked that the Tso's be extra spicy. Unfortunately it was too sweet even with the extra "spice" for my liking. It wasn't delicious but it was still tasty. The broccoli was great, it was fresh and not mushy. The edamame was pretty standard. Good portion, fairly priced at $4. Overall it was a solid dinner. Enough leftovers will make for another meal tomorrow. I'd like to try more of the menu as there is such an array of items! Thai, Chinese, Japanese, I shall return. read more

Great take out picks: beef chow foon, chicken with mixed veggies, chicken with broccoli I think call it chicken broccoli is such a misnomer -- it is really well done with tremendous flavor and cooking wine -- it is not your regular old chicken broccoli read more

Normally the food is decent and the staff is always friendly. Last night I bought Hunan Chicken and it was so salty that I ended up throwing it away after two bites. Very disappointed but this was the exception to the rule. read more

Oriental Pearl has a large selection of sushi and Chinese options. The ambience is very casual and I've never had to wait for a table. Staff is very friendly and attentive. We normally order take out due to the convenient and easy location of the restaurant. We've never had an issue with our orders and food is consistent and fresh. I usually order basic sushi rolls, kani salad and sometimes a dish off of the menu. read more

Well, of course we discover this amazing place literally 2 weeks before we move down South to retire....... Great food!! Very very flavorful, big portions, not too pricey, but well worth it. Gets a bit loud on weekends. Highly recommended though!! The Oriental Pearl special (Shrimp/Scallops) was stunning. read more

We passed by this restaurant while going to pick up a car at the Hertz Rental facility in the same shopping center. Reviews on Yelp were positive so last night we placed a take out order to give it a try. The menu is impressive : Chinese, Thai, Sushi and Vietnamese food - all available. The first thing that stood out was the wait time on the order - 20-25 minutes. I can not remember EVER ordering Chinese food that wasn't ready in 15 minutes. I thought this must either be the busiest local restaurant of its kind or they spend extra time getting everything ready. Sure enough, there were take out bags everywhere when I arrived. The restaurant is clean and much larger than it appears from the outside. A sushi counter is located in the front. I recognized the owner who appears on a video on their website home page holding down the front of the house. I love seeing an owner who is there making it happen in prime time. The won ton soup was tasty - nice broth with delicate noodles that fell apart when eating as opposed to those other versions that use noodles that are hard and industrial strength. The egg rolls were so-so. House made hot mustard was excellent. Pork fried rice was decent. My lady's Kung Pao chicken was good with cashews instead of peanuts. Easily the highlight was the all white meat with no upcharge General Tsos chicken. Huge pieces of chicken, lightly fried, in a delicious sauce. Crispy, sweet, tender and spicy - exactly as promised. This is a good restaurant. Not the best but decent versions of the things we like, especially the rocking General Tsos chicken. We will be back. read more

This is my spot for dine in or even take out Chinese. Excellent menu and always well prepared. Very hard for me to give 5 stars to any Restauraunt but I'd give this place a 4.5 if I could. read more

My family and I LOVE Oriental Pearl! We order for takeout often and are never disappointed. We've loved every sushi roll we've ever tried -- they are made fresh and always delicious.

Having lived in South Jersey for 8 years, I was a frequent diner to the original Oriental Pearl restaurant in Haddonfield, NJ. On a recent trip back there, I came to learn they opened a new restaurant in West Chester, not far from me. To celebrate Chinese New Year today, I stopped by. To my delight, the owner's son was there. So yes, they business has stayed in the family, and so have the recipes. Oriental Pearl has Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese and Japanese fair. Most places that try to do this don't balance out. But Oriental Pearl does. And they use incredibly fresh ingredients, no oil or MSG, and the consistency is always there. For a truly diverse menu, fresh ingredients, hospitality, I have to give a good ole sentimental spot in a new location 5 stars. read more

We ordered dinner to take out tonight (4/26/14) Ordered egg rolls they were crispy & tasty. Entrees were red curry chicken which was very delicious and great flavors of south east Asia, Pork in garlic sauce, the pork was tender flavorful and sauce was tantalizing spicy garlic sauce which was excellent, then the orange beef was very tender & tasty with sweet & spicy orange sauce. What we really love is that you also have a choice of rice, from white, brown, or fried, the fried rice is amazing and the edamame in the fried rice is perfect. The food here is remarkable! We had a nice chat with Johnny, what a nice man. The service here at Oriental Pearl is outstanding all the staff are professional. We really enjoyed the crispy noodles & duck sauce :) Thank you so much See you soon! read more

Was here recently with a party of seven and was really looking forward to it based on the number of good reviews, but ultimately left somewhat disappointed. We had reservations, so we were quickly seated once we all arrived. It took another 25 minutes before someone came over to take our order! The place was busy, but by no means packed. We were never offered anything else to drink besides water and hot tea, which came out automatically. This is by the way a BYOB, but some of us wanted ice tea or sodas. Not a biggie, but still found it odd that they didn't ask. While the food was good, it didn't blow me away and i wouldn't go out of my way to come here. For an appetizer, I had the egg roll and the crabmeat cheese wonton. Both were very good, especially the wonton's which were stuffed pretty good. I had a Philly roll and then shared the Moo Shu Pork with my wife. The sushi was fresh and while the Moo Shu Pork was good, we prefer a slightly thinner pancake to wrap the Moo Shu Pork in. I tried my friend's General Tso Chicken but didn't really care for it. I thought the chicken had an odd texture to it. For dessert, I went with the fried ice cream and my wife had the tempura bananas. Again, both were good, but nothing to shout home about. My wife preferred to eat her dessert with some of my ice cream. Before heading out for the long drive home, I hit the mens room and found it to be a little dirty and was frustrated that there was no soap to wash my hands with. They really need to check on the bathrooms throughout the night and make sure they are cleaned and stocked. Overall, service was very friendly...I just wished it had been a bit quicker. It's not that the food was bad, but it didn't blow me away. If I lived closer, I would likely go back, but since this is a bit of a hike for us, we likely won't be. read more

BEST Asian food in Chester County for prices that will make you smile. Trust me when I tell you this, as it's coming from a guy who has grown very tired of a cheap, quick and salty Chinese take-out. This place throws out all of those expectations. Great spot for the family or even a night out with your significant other. It's BYOB too! read more

Love this place! Best Chinese food in the West Chester area (and beyond). Staff is always very attentive and eager to answer questions or make suggestions. I haven't tried the sushi, but need too. Their basics are great...fried rice, wonton soup, egg rolls. General Taos is delish - and they have this steak and pepper special that is out of this world! Oh...and ask for the fried noodles - so good! read more

Oriental Pearl Restaurant - Chicken and shrimp Phad Thai - Chinese Near Me - West Chester, Pennsylvania

In the area, browsing Yelp, come across this place, see the scallop and shrimp dish, just ate but decided hey why not!!! I get to the counter to find the food at 20 dollars in this large bag. I am far from a cheap skate when it comes to food so I figured it must be worth it. The owner I assume ( Heavy set Guy) tells me how they use large scallops and blahh blahh blahh. I get home to become extremely dissatisfied. About 4 scallops 5 shrimps and the rest giant onions and peppers. Never again. The one is for the taste wasn't that bad read more

Oriental Pearl Restaurant - 20 dollars!!! Please tell me why - Chinese Near Me - West Chester, Pennsylvania

We have been going here for the past year. It is a great little place. I love a place that has constancy, there is nothing worse than going somewhere the first 2-3 times and its great, than after that its down hill. This place is definitely not like that. We have been here at least 30 times and have always gotten great service and great food. Staff is incredibly friendly. We love all of their traditional dishes like the general tso's, fried rice, lo mien. But another thing I love about this place is you can get chinese, japanese, thai, and vietnamese. I have had numerous sushi rolls from here and it is delicious and fresh. I would say its as good as high end restaurants, not to mention lower prices. Most of your regular rolls (tuna, salmon, spicy tuna, spicy salmon) run around $6-$7 and they are delicious. If you like the slight spicy flavor, but dont like spicy food their spicy salmon roll is TERRIFIC. My partner hates spicy, where I love it so this allows us to share a roll, because it has great flavor, and I just ask for a side of the spicy sauce. Another great roll which you dont see everywhere is their spicy white tuna roll. It has a light spicy tangy sauce and is delicious. They make a lot of different special rolls which are large. I myself could probably eat 1, 2 at absolute most they are really big and delicious. Everything is so fresh which makes it even better. Dishes we have had and our thoughts: Pad Thai- very tasty, this is the first time i have had it so i cant compare it or tell you if its really "authentic" because I have no idea. but it was delicious. Basil Sauce(chicken, beef, or shrimp choice)- I have had only the chicken and it is great. There is nothing worse than dry chicken, this chicken is moist with a wonderful thai basil sauce, slightly spicy (they will adjust it how you want it) with fresh vegetables that are still slightly crisp. absolutely wonderful crispy noodle dish includes chicken, beef and shrimp- it is lo mien noodles deep fried until crispy with the proteins mixed with veggies and a light brown sauce. very good also. Fried Rice- one of my favorite things when getting chinese, their fried rice is not your typical, but very tasty. they fry it with edamame beans, onions and it is one of my favorite dishes. Overal I would definitely recommend this place, family run place. When seated you get a bowl of fried rice chips, fresh hot tea and water. Absolutely love this place!!!! read more

Today was my second time ordering from here and have been impressed each time, new favorite while I'm working. Had edamame and shrimp fried rice today--edamame was perfectly steamed and just the right amount of salty, shrimp fried rice was overflowing with shrimp and I only ordered a pint. My first time visiting here I had chicken & eggplant in brown sauce which was superb as well. Great portions, quality ingredients, fast service (I've only tried takeout), great value. read more
