    Egg Drop Soup
    Heather R.

    This restaurant has decent food but not as good as I expected given previous reviews. Atmosphere: Cute little restaurant with limited seating. The service was standard, not good or bad. Food: The Egg Drop soup was pretty good as an appetizer. The Shrimp Pad Thai wasn't very good in my opinion. The noodles weren't classic pad Thai noodles and the sauce was weird.

    Best spring rolls you'll ever have. Vegetarian option makes it even better!

    Always the best! Springrolls are exceptional and the staff couldn't be friendlier. Highly recommend.

    Thai chicken salad

    We stopped by this restaurant on our way to Machinaw city and we weren't disappointed. The moment you enter, you become a part of their culture,history and heritage. The menus had a description of how they got into business. You can really feel the love they put into their food.We ordered a Thai Asian chicken salad and temple chicken. I was told they can make anything on their menu vegan. Both the dishes were amazing and had good quantity. You won't be disappointed if you like a restaurant to take their time to make the best food possible. This family owned restaurant is amazing!!!

    Temple chicken
    Abhishek B.

    A really nice and beautiful dining experience. The place is decorated with paintings and Buddha statues praising the Asian heritage. We had the temple chicken and the Thai chicken salad and it was amazing. Also hats off to the staff for an amazing service . I would definitely come back and visit when I get in town again

    After years of great food and relationship with the manager my family had the worst experience…read moreduring a recent lunch service. When we arrived around 1pm the restaurant had a table of two and a table of 7 that left minutes after our arrival. After being seated we waited almost 10mins before our server even showed up to our table. After bringing our table of 5 water the waitress was gone and didn't return for another 10mins. At this point we asked to be moved to a larger table since we planned on ordering a substantial amount of food and they had no problem to accommodate our request. Another 15mins went by and still no sign of our waitress to take an appetizer order. At this time a table of two was seated and attended to immediately. Needless to say we decided to leave. Upon leaving we called the manager to inform him of the situation and he was very adamant that we come back and he would ensure we were attended to. Silly us we took his word due to our long standing relationship. Upon arriving for the second time we again sat down and waited yet another 15mins waiting for service. Finally the waitress came over to inform us that she would not be serving us and another waitress would be taking care of us. Turns out our new waitress spent 10mins clearing a table banging dishes around directly behind our table before coming to our table. When she arrived we simply asked if attending to the clean up of a table was priority over attending to ordering customers. The lady proceeded to say she didn't like our attitude and stormed off while complaining and saying things under her breath. So once again we decided to leave. As we were leaving the waitress decided to call one of our family a bitch in front of our minor child. The manager now called us again and we made him very aware of the terrible experience. The manager proceeded to now defend the employee of 12 years...Long story short, we finally made it to Hunans on Bay Rd where the service was absolutely exceptional.

    Food downhill from visit 9 yrs ago…read more Food: 1.5/5 Service: 5/5 did takeout, they were fast. Ambience: 5/5 cute inside, decorated romantically for night. Some seclusion, not chairs tightly in. Value: 1.5/5 The 4 items below were $35!!! I would rate this a 3 star expensive restaurant, generating higher expectations. Order Details: hot & sour soup: this tasted like a watered down chix noodle but with water chestnuts instead of noodles. Threw it out. Zero spicy, which isnt hot/sour soup. eggroll: it tasted like the oil and vat hasnt been changed in a long while. Szechuan shrimp with veggies. OMG a severe disappointment from a place that has authentic Chinese people working there. Fried rice: it was really white rice with some broth added. Thats not fried rice. I threw most of it out for squirrels and despite it being winter and cold- they didnt eat in 2 days. Shrimp: 1 size bigger than salad shrimp. Sauce: NOT Szechuan, it was a thick duck sauce and they threw in a couple peppers. Spice level: zero, despite the dish definition itself + me telling them I like spicy. Veggies: what a joke. There were 2 broccolis about .5" each and severely overcooked. My advice: call these dishes something dif, it is very misleading.

    This Father's Day weekend, we celebrated at Chen's Mongolian Grill Buffet, and even though we've…read morebeen coming here for years, this visit just felt different, in the best way possible. We had a party of 30 people and I called the day before to give them a heads up. When we arrived at 7:30 PM, everything was ready for us. We were seated right away, our drink orders were taken quickly, and the food was fresh and coming out nonstop. The staff has always been friendly and welcoming to our family. We've never had a bad experience here, and that's one of the reasons we keep coming back. The food is consistently good, and while Chinese restaurants may be a dime a dozen, finding a good Chinese buffet around here is actually pretty rare. What's funny is that my family owned a Chinese restaurant growing up, so you'd think we'd be tired of Chinese food by now. Yet somehow, we still find ourselves choosing a Chinese buffet whenever we get together. One thing we're always judging is the hot and sour soup. When you've worked in the restaurant business, you become a little picky about certain dishes, and hot and sour soup is definitely one of them. Since every restaurant makes it differently, it's often hit or miss. In my opinion, Chen's has the best hot and sour soup around. It absolutely hit the spot and yes, I had THREE bowls! What I ate: * Hot & Sour Soup * Fried Rice & White Rice * Chow Mein * Fried Chicken Wings * Fried Gyoza * Chicken & Mushrooms * Beef & Broccoli * Ribs * Sesame Chicken * Crab Rangoon * Sushi * Mongolian Grill Overall, the food was excellent. I cleaned my plate, and honestly, when all my nieces and nephews are eating more than just chicken wings and fries, that's usually a pretty good sign that the food is good! This is also a great place for families with kids because there are so many options. They have everything from pizza and hot dogs to traditional Chinese dishes. The only thing they're missing is tacos and burgers, and they'd have every kid's favorite food covered. With 30 people in our group and 18 of them being children, Chen's was the perfect place to celebrate Father's Day and Grandfather's Day together. Everyone found something they enjoyed, and the staff handled our large group with ease. Tons of ice cream options too! We'll definitely be back sooner rather than later!

    I was so excited that my family wanted to go here. We paid about $160 for our family to dine here…read moreafter an event. Some drove from over an hour away and we thought Chen's was the one perfect place. I made sure that we tipped the Mongolian grill staff $5-10/plate (even though it's included in the price of the buffet). I genuinely believe in taking care of our local establishments. And, at a buffet, I left a $50 tip just on the ticket (~35%) and yet the young lady working up front screamed at me for grabbing three to-go ice cream items (literally in to-go packaging) for my family because some are older, no one ate much, and no one realized that was an option. So I thought I'd get them for them. But the girl up front said no. I politely tried to explain and she immediately said she'd call the cops if I didn't leave. Wtf. You just lost a long-time group of people who were always rooting for you. That moment completely changed how we view this restaurant. A place we once recommended is now a place we won't return to.
