I really like the soup it was delicious and clean looking. Arrived well packaged and hot. I'm sure the restaurant look great but I've never been there. Delivery service was quick. read more

I've never dined there, we only order take out. Food is delicious and the portions are huge! Highly recommend. Their noodle dishes are my favorite but my husband absolutely loves the combination rice. I read more

Absolutely my favorite spot for Chinese takeout. You truly get your money's worth here, as the portions are incredibly generous. More importantly, the food is consistently delicious. I specifically recommend the Shrimp Fried Rice--it's flavorful and never greasy--and the perfectly prepared Orange Chicken. Great quality and great value. read more

It's been a long time since I've been back. I don't know how many times it's changed ownership since then. Taking a stroll around the neighborhood and was feeling some old school Chinese specials and decided to give them a try. I went with the king Pao dinner special and it was pretty good. I liked the fried rice as you can tell it's was made with day old rice. Only thing is, they forgot my egg roll. Boo! read more

Wing Wah Lau - Kun Pao Chicken Dinner Special (They forgot my egg roll ). - Chinese Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Whats good Yelpers?! It's the Fat Boy again & this time I have some pretty good Chinese food here. I'm always looking for some great Chinese food but it's hard to find to my satisfaction. I just happen to get a flyer from Wing Wah Lau and the food looked pretty good so I decided to gave them a try. Inside looks like a place that used to be a sit in restaurant, now it's just a space where you can get good Chinese take out. And we know THOSE ARE THE PLACES FOR GREAT FOOD! Lol. When first going to any place new I try to order the basic. Because if they can't prepare the basic most common dishes Don't even think about trying anything else. So my wife and I ordered some Jumbo Shrimp Fried rice, shrimp egg foo young, fried Wontons & some pot stickers. And I must say everything was pretty good. The Jumbo Shrimp fried rice had a nice amount of "fresh" tasting shrimp. Very fresh & very tasty! (8.5/10) I asked for Jumbo shrimp egg foo young but they only serve regular shrimp egg foo young. Now to that I was disappointed as the small shrimp in Chinese food is normally not divined. But to my surprise these small shrimp were divined!! That was a major plus for me! (8.5/10) the pot stickers I didn't have they were for my wife. They were completely fried I've never seen a fried pot sticker. She said they were just ok she prefers the steamed and pan seared pot stickers she gave them a (5/10) the fried wontons was good! (7/10) I will most definitely be returning to Wing Wah Lau they've just become my place for fresh, tasty and very reasonably priced Chinese take out! Overall I give them a solid (8/10) And Remember my fellow Yelpers all reviews are subjective. Sorry my pictures don't do them justice. Trust me is fire!! And I was smashing Lol. I really give them a 4.5 stars! read more

We try to visit Wing Wah Lau at least once every month. They always have a high caliber of quality Chinese food. They know us there and greet us warmly each time we arrive read more

Great Chinese food, been ordering from this place since I was a kid! Highly recommend

Best cooked rice for Chinese takeout. For me, Chinese takeout is hit or miss and many times the food isn't quite as good by the time it gets to you, but this was really good. I really haven't had bad Chinese food around here, even still, this was just a small notch better than what I'm used to for Chinese takeout read more

This place is like a dive bar, but dive restaurant. We ordered orange chicken, beef and broccoli, vegetable chow mein, and two egg rolls. It was AMAZING!!! Highly recommend! And the prices are affordable. Great spot for Chinese cuisine. read more

Chow fun super greasy,broccoli extra over cooked on the orange tofu.everything else was good

I've been going here for probably about 25+ years since I was a child! And I totally recommend it. Doesn't seem like much when you walk past it. But the food is good and such a great price! read more

I would say this food is fantastic the cashiers nice but shy the food comes out fast as-well. I would say coming from a Chinese household this food was probably as tasty as food from mainland china. The food was probably the best part of the store it might be because I was hungry but I finished the food so fast. I would recommend you try this place out if you are in the area. read more

It could just be me but once I ordered the hot wings and went to eat there was a beachy smell to them and I couldn't eat them. Bow a few days ago I ordered beef chop suey and I started thinking about what kind of animal I was eating. I was able to eat the rice but that thought of what I was eating sickened me bad were I almost didn't make it to the bathroom. Maybe it was just me but I don't know. read more

Hidden Gem; Sweet and Sour Chicken was very tasty. I totally recommend this restaurant for a good fair price meal. I have not been disappointed once at Wing Wah Lau. Pepper Steak and Lo Mein House Beef highly recommended. Try their Tapioca Smoothie too, you wont be disappointed :) read more

I don't usually write reviews. But this place is definitely worth of a GOOD review. Every time I call, nice lady on the phone. Food is delivered really fast and food is DELICIOUS. Would definitely recommend. read more

The food was so good. Got a couple options and nothing was disappointing. The service was quick and painless. Did a pick up thru DoorDash. It's a nice little spot. Definitely ordering from here again. read more

I'm very special when it comes to Chinese food. I've ordered before from this place and has never disappointed, today in particular I decided to stay home and have it delivered through Grubhub and I placed my order at 7:03pm and the driver was at my door by 7:26 so very speedy on both parts. I ordered sesame chicken with a side of shrimp fried rice and it was absolutely perfect. The sauce on the chicken wasn't overwhelming and the rice wasn't dried out like other restaurants. I also had a side of eggrolls which were very enjoyable. Over all a great find! Will order again :) read more

Have been coming here for years! Food and service never disappoints. The orange chicken, egg rolls and vegetable fried rice are my fave!! Neighborhood gem. read more

Went her for some shrimp fried rice and an egg roll. The fried rice was the worst I've ever had. So dry with no flavor and hardly any shrimp. Egg roll was so so. Never going back read more

I love this place, my favorite is the orange chicken lunch special and the crab Rangoon.

Tried this place for the first time today with co-workers and we all have agreed this is going to be our go to place. The orange chicken was crispy on the outside the sauce was tasty. The beef and gravy was delicious from what one co worker says and she is extremely picky. Egg foo young, general tso and chicken and broccoli all just as delicious. The egg rolls were oh so crispy and tasty as well. The lady even helped me carry out my order (which was not needed at all) but so very thoughtful. I will be back!! Great Job Wing Wah Lau!! read more

I ordered chicken fried rice, but felt my rice was bland. The reason I ordered from here, was because my brother raved about it. I won't give up just yet, because I would really like to try their Thai items. More to come. read more

I ordered the hot chicken wings. They said ready for pickup in 20 minutes. 45 minutes later still no chicken wings. I demanded my money back

This place is a hidden gem! The food was so good. We got the orange chicken and the sweet and sour chicken. And they're were both delicious!

Every time I order from here the food is always amazing. I had their rice, soup and beef dishes. All taste great

If I could give zero stars I would! Very bad experience. Found a GREY hair inside my crab Rangoon. Very unsanitary. And the bathrooms are absolutely disgusting. First and last time I step foot there. DO NOT RECOMMEND!!! read more

Lunch specials are HUGE! I usually order the generals chicken and the breading is good! Not super bready and loose. The smoothies are also pretty good but small read more

Very good food. My first time yesterday and I was very very impressed! The lady also threw in 2 free cans of pop cause I was a new customer. Thank you! Will def be buying here more often. Highly recommend read more

Possibly the best Chinese Restaurant I've ever been in and ordered from! -Great customer service! -Amazing food for a ridiculously low price! -A variety of food to choose from. -Convenient business days and hours. -Delivery is quick and they handle the food well! I have recommended several of my peers and family members to order from here, to save money and have a fantastic meal. read more

I dine in this time and OMG the cashier lady was staring at me. I try to eat my food peacefully and this feeling of someone staring at me makes me feel very uncomfortable. So I went to the cashier and talked to her and found out she's from Hong Kong but she still state herself as not Chinese but Hong kongnese but I really cannot tell a difference. She was slanted eye brow and looks very mean and I gave it a 4 star cause the food is great nothing wrong with it but just the service is bad. read more

Hands down, THE BEST Chinese takeout on the southwest side of Chicago - and I have ordered from nearly all of them. The pictures of the food up above do not do this place justice. I have been eating here since 1987 - I'd stop here late at night to pick up dinner after evening classes at Columbia College. I still order takeout from here and for the sole reason being that the food is always FRESH! No sitting around collecting sauce - I've had the Pad Thai, egg foo young, shrimp fried rice, kung pao chicken and shrimp, curry chicken, and the Mongolian beef is also excellent. Almond cookies are crisp and out of this world. They throw in fortune cookies, too, if you order the full dinner. This place is a life saver for me on the nights when I am too exhausted to even throw a frozen dinner into the oven, or, when I'm just not in the mood to dine out after having worked a full day around a lot of people. Okay to drunk dial if you didn't think you'd actually finish that bottle of Toasted Chardonnay which left you burnt to a crisp and ravenous as hell. I also like to order last call when unexpected visiting friends occasionally come rap, rap rapping on your door after 9:00 pm, expecting to be fed when you have nothing in your refrigerator but some year old frozen Italian meatballs. Nothing gets the party started around the Rita S. household more than a bag o' hot goodies from Wing Wah. You would be wise to heed the Peoples Gas public service video before ordering egg rolls or spring rolls with boo coo cabbage. Don't order the spring rolls with cabbage in particular if any one of your guests has a problem containing their flatulence as it is a well proven scientific fact that gas leaks indoors can be fatal. Oh, and if anyone has an allergy to shellfish, best to keep some Benadryl on hand if ordering the tempura: they are huge and they are delicious as all hell! It's probably my very favorite thing on their extensive menu. What else you need to know: delivery is always quick and food is always delivered HOT. All their drivers are friendly and cordial, as is the lady who takes orders over the phone. For some reason she reminds me of Steve McGarrett's secretary on the old circa 70's Hawaii Five-O. But I digress...Just pick up the horn and order if you are in the area. If you're in a car or on a Harley, just call ahead, park & pick up to go. read more

Doesn't look like much when u drive by, but I'm a VERY picky eater and I have tried a lot of Chinese places but this one is hands down THE BEST I have EVER tried !!! I recommend it to the fullest ! read more

OK lemme give you a run down on why this place is awesome for carry out and delivery.. they're QUICK!! and quick in a good way meaning everything is tasting as good as it should. Its hot. Nothing is forgotten. And they're friendly too! You can call ahead, pick up or call for home delivery. TRY the combination fried rice as its not overcooked or full of soy sauce so it may not be as dark as others.. any dishes containing veggies you will see Vibrant fresh veg colors. Broccoli that's Green not grey. The spicy Thai chicken wings are my new favorites to get along with the usually faves of egg Foo young or general tsao chicken. And check it out.. a SOUTH SIDE place that actually makes Thai food along with traditional Cantonese/Mongolian Awesome!! Pad Thai on the south side?? Absurd! But this place has it and does it right. And lets not forget the reasonable pricing... OK gonna order now.. read more

Ordered my food on the site and then 45 min later they called and said they wouldn't deliver it with me paying an extra $6 delivery charge. This place is awful. Do not order from them. I'll be writing a negative review everywhere I can. read more

Ordered here for the first time today, and am glad that I did. I ordered the orange chicken and crab rangoons!! Both were excellent, and as i dug deeper into the bag, I see that that they also give you an eggroll and a 7up! Yes!! The food portion was amazing. Couldn't eat it all, so I def will have left overs! The delivery was also pretty fast and they even call right before they show up! My new favorite chinese restaurant here on the south side!! read more

I really wish I could give this place a better review but the food was terrible. I ordered some food today for delivery since I was iching for some Chinese food. The crab rangoon was really oily and tasted old. As for my main course of pad thai, wow horrible! The noodles were still hard, I just ate some of the meat and threw out the rest, honestly there was probably 75% of it I did not eat. The only thing that was average was the egg roll but even that was not stellar. I will not be ordering from here again, sorry the first impression is always the most important and I can't see myself ordering here again. read more

Relatively inexpensive and really good. The portions are huge and I've noticed that 50% of my orders arrive with a beverage I didn't even pay for, so that's nice. read more

My sweet and sour sauce was separate from the chicken but came in a folded paper container. Spilled/leaked frequently in a short trip home. Otherwise food was good. read more
