Order from here. Best Chinese in Oak Lawn. Very fresh ingredients- meats and veggies. Always consistent and a great option for take out on busy nights when cooking is a task. Pan fried noodles, any of the fried rice, beef and broccoli always solid choices. read more

Excellent take out Chinese food cooked quickly. Extensive menu, reasonably priced. Egg rolls are great.

My husband and I have been ordering from Ruan's for 10+ years. They are consistent which is something that can't be said for every restaurant unfortunately. Their delivery is fast, the food always arrive hot, and I honestly don't think they've ever messed up one of our orders in all this time. The food is always fresh, seasoned nicely, and the portions are good. We've tried other Chinese food in the area over the years, but nothing is as good across the menu. read more

Fast service. Staff is nice. Food is always made to order. Not a dine in place. Just order and go.

It's nice to know that RUAN'S CHINA KITCHEN knows me! Every time I place an order they know me by name they always give me enough portions to make sure that if it's just myself or my husband along with my daughter that we're all fed and our bellies are full and yet we have leftover for the next day too. I really feel in my heart that they do absolute great service and they are helping out the neighborhood. They keep their prices low and their portions are excellent and they don't even have to do that. They've been around forever and we appreciate them very much! read more

An old standby, food is decent, however they NEVER give you enough gravy with your orders. Takeout Only here. Plenty of parking but lots of traffic in the area so b careful. read more

My shrimp was not deveined how gross! The total of my order was $55.47. I asked for extra condiments which was too much of a hassle. I was given six packets of soy sauce, four packets of sweet-and-sour, and two packets of hot mustard. I asked if I could return all of those condiments except for the hot mustard and exchange them for extra hot mustard. She rolled her eyes at me and said I gave you hot mustard. I said yes two is not enough for all the food I ordered, I don't need all of the other condiments, I just want hot mustard. She gave me two hot mustards and slammed them on the counter. The order taker was extremely rude. read more

My favorite quick take out Chinese food restaurant. I absolutely love it here. Combination fried rice without pork, general chicken with white meat extra spicy, shrimp lo mien, Singapore Rice noodles, and Mongolian Chicken are my go to dishes. Never disappoints and there are always leftovers! I each here weekly! read more

Always consistently good. Very clean. We have been eating here since 2003. We always get the Cantonese chow mein combination with pan fried noodles. They have great service and are always fast. read more

See all

Fresh steamed broccoli! Delicious Mongolian beef. Always quick even lunch time delivery! With gratitude! read more

I ordered on a whim because I was in the area. I got a full order of Mongolian Beef. Was shocked that it cost me more than $17. It was pretty good but at that price point I'll stick with Panda Express. read more

The selection is outstanding. Whatever you choose the ingredients are delicious from the meats, vegetables and sauces. Your container is filled to the brim. You never wait long to pick up your order! Friendly service! read more

Best Chinese on the Southside. My go to Sunday night dinner. Happy Family gives you a little bit of everything in a brown sauce. Crab Rangoon's and chicken fried rice are on point. I also like their jumbo shrimp lo mein or in the fried rice. read more

The food is really good at this restaurant, but the service is very inconsistent. Normally when you spend so much money at the restaurant you receive a free egg roll. We have been here several times and it's always a different rule. It's quite frustrating to be honest. read more

I order here all the time and the food is always made just how I asked and it tastes amazing!!!

Very very tasty orange chicken. We've been using this take out since changing from a different place at 103rd and Central. Orange chicken has never been over cooked and is delicious consistently. The pepper steak was also tasty but had way too many onions and peppers and a little skimpy on the steak, but it was good. My daughters love the pot stickers, and pretty much everything we've ever ordered has ranged from good to great. They are quick....if calling for pick up and your told 20 minutes, be there in 15. read more

We had 2 lunch portions of Orange Chicken (good) with Lo Mein noodles (good but little flavor) and 2 orders of Crab Rangoon(good) $46. I also added a tip after $46 A little high for lunch size. Ruans was right on time for pick up at 11am. read more

Delivery the worst I've been ordering from them for years but not anymore they won't deliver to my Greenwood!

Awesome lunch specials. Chicken egg foo young has huge pieces of chicken. Large portions.

I have ordered from them for yeats and have always been pretty satisfied. I ordered today 2 pieces of beef, eggfuyoung, and beef fried rice. There literally was no beef on the egg fu young and very little beef in the fried rice.$26 later, I called the rude girl who answered the phone said let me ask the cook." She came back and said there was beef in both. She said little pieces because of higher cost in foods., which I get however the reflect the increase. I again said there was NO beef in the egg fu young. She said the cook said there was, I asked if I could send her a picture, and she said no, she couldn't get pictures. Both items literally had no flavor. I'm totally disappointed and will not go back! So $26 for rice and eggs. read more

The very most rude people. The food was not bad, but the customer service was god awful. The cashier gave me my food, asked for my money and gave me my change so fast picked up the phone no thank you no acknowledgment whatsoever and I wanted to ask her for like extra soy sauce and she gave me like two and just continued with her conversation no thank you no acknowledgment no appreciation. ThThe food is good, but they attitude is terrible. read more

Ordered on-line, so I guess we avoided the rude lady on the phone. Ordering process was adequate. Our order was ready on time and was hot when we got it home, unfortunately, those were the only positives. Most of the food was standard to substandard: egg rolls were crunchy on the outside but filling was mushy (would have no idea what the ingredients were), chop suey was horrible (it tasted like it had been around for a while-wouldn't even eat it), fried rice was palatable but nothing special, sesame chicken was just okay broccoli was horribly overcooked. Also, not a big fan of the Styrofoam packaging but maybe that's why it stayed hot. Sorry Ruan, we are looking for a new go-to Chinese take out and we wanted to like you but we won't return. read more

My order was ready with a quickness!! Food delicious!!! I loved the Vegetable Fried rice; steamed veggies, egg rolls and pot stickers.

the food was very tasty i have ordered from there numerous times but i've been in the resturant business since i was 14 years old and i've never treated anyone this way ,the lady on the phone is so rude!!!!!! she rushs you to hurry up and tells you to say what size portion you want and scolds you over the phone and treats you like you are in studys for there menu and then proceeds to rush you off the phone ,like you are wasting her time , .like i said i love the food but seriously """""dread!!!!!"""" calling them for food anymore ,are there any other places that are recomended,in this area ? what a terrible shame i see so many people complaining about the same thing and nothing is done so i guess i will order from somewhere else and have a better experience i shouldn't have to feel like im walking on eggshells calling in a order there is too many other places out here read more

The food was phenomenal! Called an order in and it was ready fast, about 15 minutes. Their egg rolls are delicious. Reminded me of the ones from Lang Lee I ate as a kid. They were not overfilled with cabbage, but actual meat filling! They were wrapped in a perfectly wrapped fried wonton. I ordered 4 should have gotten 100. Shrimp fried rice had a good quantity of shrimp! Usually you're lucky to find 2 from other area take outs. Kids loved their sweet n' sour chicken. My daughter said that the chicken was crunchy and delicious. We also had the Hunan Chicken which was spicy.. sometimes I have to ask for extra heat, but not on this one. That spice packs a punch! Veggies in the dish were not soggy, but cooked nicely so they weren't mushy. I'm really happy I tried out a closer, local Chinese spot. Food tasted like it wasn't sitting around, it was prepared to order and was fresh. The woman at the register was very nice as well. I will definitely be coming back to try the rest of the menu! read more

Have stopped here a few times over the years. I always find their food to be just average. Will try again in a couple months hoping for a better outcome. read more

Seriously the best place in Oak Lawn to get Chinese. I used to be a regular at Chi Tung, but since the original owner sold years ago it has become trash. Ruan's ingredients are by far the freshest and their product is fantastic! The portions are huge and we order regularly. I wish they had shrimp toast and Pad Thai...but everything else is fantastic! read more

The food here is bland. I ordered from here years ago and my order was wrong, I got pork instead of chicken. I called to explain that my order was wrong and the cashier didn't attempt to fix it. I was stuck with it and had to throw it out. Fast forward to this weekend, i decided to give them another try and ordered this past weekend and my order was wrong again, the food was bland, soggy, with watery gravy. I ordered shrimp egg foo young, crab ragoons, shrimp fried rice. I didn't get the shrimp fried rice instead I got an extra order of shrimp egg foo young. Don't waste your money here. read more

First time trying this place. It is in very close distance to my home, so we figured we would give it a try. Staff was nice and food was ready in 10min. The biggest problem is there is Absolutely no flavor. It all taste the same! Sadly I got the Mongolian beef and fried rice. My boyfriend got the shrimp egg foo young with fried rice. And sadly it all just taste the same. read more

I missed this place while it was closed during the initial non-essential closures of COVID. This has been my go-to Chinese place for a while now. It always gets delivered, steaming hot. The pot stickers are amazing, I love their Orange Chicken, their chicken fried rice is awesome. I've never had a delivery of theirs take more than 15/20 minutes. No joke. The servings here are pretty generous with whatever we've gotten. The woman who takes the orders on the phone is always polite and it's always been the same delivery driver who is always polite as well. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for great Chinese. read more

First of all I hate this place but my husband tolerates it more than me. He decided he wanted Ruan's only because it was on the way home and wanted some Chinese food. The lady was sooooo rude. Definitely should not have an attitude since their food isn't good anyway. read more

Super basic food. No flavor whatsoever. Won't be ordering, need to find a different place with better food and flavor.

Worst customer service ever, I stopped in there to have a quick lunch. I did not finish food, so I wanted to take it with me. I asked for a container, they gave me this wax paper bag. Again, I asked for a container Then they act like they have no English! So I try to put my food in this little bag, The hot mustard burned my eye!! So I simply just left all my food on the table! I said just forget it, I will never go in there again! Also, last time I got food to go, they did not package it Properly, food all over the place! Just not worth it! Worst place ever!!!! read more

Apparently they give you attitude if you don't ask for utensils over the phone. I placed an order for someone else and they received the attitude for asking when there. But also on the phone the service was rude and hung up before I could even add a smoothie after she tried saying I hope you know where our location is. Obviously I do since I looked it up on my map before calling my order in. Maybe because I'm sick she couldn't understand exactly what I was saying but theres better Chinese food around the area that won't be so impatient taking your order over the phone. read more

Decent food, however they need to update their online ordering menu b/c I had ordered lo mein and was given crispy noodles. I was also disappointed to get pork egg roll when I ordered vegetable... read more

My order had scarce noodles! They only gave two packets of the hot mustard with all the soy sauce packets. The fried rice was cooked well!

Seriously disappointed!!!!! I have ordered from Ruans for a few years and have rarely had a bad meal. Tonight i had the Gen Tsos Chx, (Tasteless) Beef Chop Suey (Good) and an Egg Roll (Cheaply Made and TASTELESS) ... i am thinking that they have new owners because i did not recognize any of the staff working... If these are new owners, call the old ones and get their secrets, you are lacking... if you these are the same owners, then fire the new cook and get the old guys back, PLEASE!!!!! read more

Hands down best Chinese around my house! They're shrimp fried rice is so good lots of shrimp in it and it's even good reheated not like other Chinese places that Ilonce you reheat it its dry. Their orange chicken is one of the best I've had it's not mushy or too sweat and it has a little kick. When we order we usually get crab rangoon, egg rolls, pot stickers, shrimp fried rice, orange chicken, garlic shrimp, and Singaporean noodles and everybody always loves it. They are fast, close, and tasty. read more

Sunday night stop in for dinner picked up the chicken lo mein very hearty very tasty very good. For appetizers teriyaki beef sticks and eggrolls very hearty and very good very happy I eat here read more

After being disappointed by another local more popular Chinese restaurant I decided to search for something better and I found it with Ruan's. The prices are spot on, the staff is friendly, and the food is fresh. This is now my go to Chinese spot. read more
