Food is fantastic best I've had around NWI! Generous portions and a good price point.

Great food!!!!! Great service!! Best food in Crown Point. Hidden gem in the town. Love the f

Amazing food and awesome customer service. The Chicken Curry was perfect. My kids loved the orange chicken. The crab rangoons were delicious. Lastly, the customer service was just great; great people. They even gave us these delicious little pastries which I thought was a nice added touch. 10/10. Wish I would have taken pictures but the food was too good. read more

Uncle Chen's Hot Wok - Chinese Near Me - Crown Point, Indiana

They're the best. Always friends. Good is always hot and fresh. Lovely people. I order weekly for lunch the chicken and broccoli when a diet Dr Pepper. They're fantastic every time. read more

Service is good, warm welcome. Nice menu, I was only there once. Kung poo chicken was kinda bland and there was a root vegetable I couldn't identify. The egg roll was good. If in the area I will try a different menu item. read more

Food was delicious and generous servings. Very friendly server. Was surprised to see our many tables there were for inside dining .

Quick and good Chinese food with ample portions for leftovers! Service is always nice. Family and locally owned

Did not particularly care for the food, small portions and far from my house so for me not worth the drive

Uncle Chen's has never been fabulous but it was about the best Crown Point had. I ordered some Chicken Egg Fu Yung Tuesday evening and it was just awful! The rice was "crunchy". The gravy was nearly solid like jello. The egg Fu Yung patties were thick and full of gigantic pieces of vegetables, not very well cooked and hard to chew. Not even close to bite size! I don't know what happened but based on this visit they don't even deserve one star when they would normally be a 3-1/2. read more

The food has changed for the worse I no longer eat from here try the egg foo young it's just flier nothing but cabbage not worth eating smaller servings I guess this is the sign of the times read more

My first complaint here is we ordered vegetarian rolls. Reason being, my daughter is allergic to fish We received shrimp in our roll! Maybe in other countries shrimp is a vegetable? Even with the shrimp there was only chopped lettuce! The taste was bland.Sweet and sour chicken. Still trying to decide where the sweet and sour fits in! The Roast Pork Fied rice. The rice was hard (overcooked?) and the roast pork tasted like it sat in water. No taste at all. Please, Please is there any Great Chineese place in Indiana. That is the one restaurant group I miss the most from Illinois. This place is one to avoid. Not sure where they learned the craft of Cjineese cooking. WAS AWFULL.. read more

Had high hopes for this one; looking for an easy regular ol' Chinese take out in Northwest Indiana has turned out harder than I thought it would be. Picked up lunch for 4 on a weekday afternoon and was super impressed how well boxed-up our lunches were. I felt like it was a good sign! But that was the best part of our experience that day. Food was meh Chinese food, missing that "keep you coming back for more" flare that makes me love Chinese take out. read more

I have been ordering from Uncle Chens for many, many years. Im not sure if it's changed hands recently but the food was so gross!!! To say the very least, I was highly disappointed!! The food was also very poor quality. I won't be ordering from there again. read more

Terrible food I usually get shrimp and lobster sauce at Chinese restaurants but there's had peas and mushrooms and also the sauce was sweet taste terrible also order lo mien noodles they were clumped together and were really really bad tasted like they were burnt! I will never go back there again! read more

My main entree's were good sesames chicken and general. The sides lack seasoning that was the lightest fried rice I've seen one step from white. Same with the lo mein read more

Food is best in NWI I've had in the region. The prices have gone up just like everything else. read more

See all

I ordered the Bourbon Chicken and Crab Rangoons it was real good. Food was hot and ready exactly when they said it would be. Nice and easy transaction, love being in and out. Definitely will be returning. read more

Uncle Chen's Hot Wok - Bourbon Chicken - Chinese Near Me - Crown Point, Indiana

Pretty disappointing. We got the chicken with Chinese vegetables. The dish was prepared in some kind of fish oil or they had just prepared a seafood dish in the same pan before ours. It was very fishy. They only had white rice and fried rice and choices for rice. The fried was was terribly overpriced since there was no vegetables or other goodies added to it at all. The rice looked brown, but it was the oil that out was fried in and it tasted bad. Other similiar Chinese restaurants have brown rice as an option and their fried rice has peas, carrots and scrambled egg pieces. We won't be going back there. read more

Uncle Chen's has a wide variety of excellent food. I am a fan of their Mongolian Beef. Very tasty egg rolls and rice offerings. The restaurant is also very clean which in today's world is important. Prices are affordable. My whole family loves the place. I give Uncle Chen 5 stars. read more

Always consistently fresh and delicious. My favorite is the Chicken Kung Pao. Love, love, love this place!

Ordered for new years and food was hot and fresh tasting even after driven 20 minutes away. General Tso chicken is sooo good every time.

Fantastic Chinese. Loved every dish we ordered but especially the pork lo mein. I forget the other dishes but I'll be coming back again.

The food was awful. Burnt shrimp egg foo young, egg roll and crab Rangoon cooked in old oil, dry and was tough to chew. Hot and sour soup watered down. Shrimp and garlic sauce (brown) over powered with ginger. Over $60 in the trash. Thanks for the containers. read more

Chen's is my go-to place for Chinese in the region. It's consistently good food and you know you're getting what you expect to get. My favorite is steamed dumplings- delicious. read more

It's cash only, so be ready. The food is amazing and the staff are friendly. We loved the sesame chicken, broccoli in garlic sauce, beef lo mein, bourbon chicken. read more

I really like this place they have good food and I haven't found anyone else in northwest Indiana that's better.

Something has changed with this place, order several it items including my fav general Tso, half the container was filled with rice as were all the other entrees . Never seen such a cheap money saving screw job before from a Chinese place, what happened to rice on the side in a carton and full orders of what I actually ordered! Won't be coming back. Food was also subpar at best, disappointing, used to be good. read more

I can't put into words as to how TERRIBLE our dinner was. We spent $35.00 for two large entrees and two egg rolls. It was full of mysterious things, not even identifiable! Lack of flavor is an understatement, especially when you order spicy food. I would never go there or recommend this restaurant ever! Couldn't be more disappointed, would have rather had cold fast food! read more

Love the chicken with mixed vegetables - ask for the garlic sauce - and egg foo young and vegetable fried rice

My family loves Uncle Chen's Hot Wok. They are never disappointed. Great taste and quick service. Only complaint is there are no Gluten Free options! I would have give a higher rating if they did have GF options like most of the other Asian restaurants do in the area. read more

I'm on the same page as Christian K... Your socks will not be knocked off , but I ate my entire meal, was full and satisfied my msg cravings. I ate the garlic chicken it was.... Good Service was prompt at a decent price for lunch read more

Ordered Singapore Mei Fun and it tasted like mold. The fried rice is really yellow rice with carrots and onions. And dried up peas. I won't be going there again. read more

Wanted some spicy shrimp and beef friend rice and decided to try Uncle Chen. Soooo glad a made the choice. Nice portion and super fresh. Rice was really flavorful!!! I will be back! read more

Used to be the best Asian food around but not any more. Everything has changed. The fried rice used to be excellent but it is sticky and lacks flavor now. I don't know if they got new cooks or what as happened. The two stars is only because they were GREAT at one time. Don't waste your money. read more

I originally went to Uncle Chen's because the reviews were great, however, I am highly underwhelmed. I ordered the sweet and sour chicken which lacked crisp and actual meat, as most of my pieces were entirely too fatty to consume. I also ordered the Steak Lo Mein and what a waste. The steak did not have steak texture or taste, and the entire dish was highly under seasoned. The egg roll was decent. Overall, I will not be back and I'm not sure what's going on with these other eaters taste buds, or maybe I just went on a bad day. Regardless, this place goes on the bottom of my list of Chinese restaurants...ever. read more

Chicken fat, anyone? We ordered the Hot Pepper Chicken and Hot & Sour soup. The soup had no 'tang'; it reminded me of egg drop soup. The 'chicken' in the meal consisted of 'puffs' of something, resembling deep fried dumplings. I took the 'chicken' dish back to the store: the lady insisted that the 'dumplings' were cooked chicken, so I tore several apart to show her that there was NO MEAT in them. They MIGHT have been deep fried chicken fat, but they weren't meat. She was adamant that the meal was fine. I left the 'meal' there, as I wasn't going to eat it, and so I was out $14.25 plus tax. If you want deep fried chicken fat puffs, order the Hot Pepper Chicken. This establishment used to be good: I will never walk through their doors again. read more

I used to eat lunch here quite often when I worked in Crown Point. I consider this place a Chinese greasy spoon. I mean this as a complement. I now reside in Michigan , but whenever I am within driving distance, I stop here for lunch. Good hot food, very basic dining room. Inexpensive in my estimation. My uncle owned a Chinese restaurant, so I know good Chinese food. Skip the egg roll and get the soup, always severed hot. read more

This is one of the better small, family run Chinese restaurants around the area. And from my experience having lived in various places around the Midwest, not all small, family run Chinese restaurants are equally good. This is by far one of the better ones! My family has been going there since not long after it opened in 1996. I have noticed that they can make both the fried and steamed rice pretty well (very important for a Chinese restaurant). I have also noticed that, for some reason, they have always have had their cans of pop cooled to exactly the right temperature to give them the best taste possible. The egg rolls, sugar biscuits, and almond cookies are also very good. Heck, they can even make steamed broccoli taste good! Their lunch specials are a particularly good deal. They are available before 3 pm. My particular favorite is General Tso's Chicken (specifically asked to be mildly spiced) with fried rice. I had made it a point that when my girlfriend first visited Crown Point that she would try the food at this restaurant (as well as at Papa's Deli). An excellent place for a take-out meal that is done right. read more
