After passing by the restaurant so many times, we finally ordered delivery. It had great reviews and nearby, so it was quick. I liked they actually had combo specials, which seems to be increasingly harder to find in the city from quality Chinese restaurants. Flavors were spot on and I appreciated the General Tso's Chicken and Orange Chicken were slightly breaded and actual chicken chunks, while the Beef Lo Mein was not greasy. The Shrimp with Lobster Sauce was light in flavor and was more like a soup, but my fault for not realizing before ordering it. Plenty of selections, so I'm sure I'll order again! read more

Very good Chinese restaurant that's mostly takeout but with a few tables. Highly recommended. Our food was fresh and good quality. I saw a lot of people picking up for takeout and delivery. Prices are reasonable (as far as how prices shot up the last couple years). Worth trying. I'll go back again certainly and hope that it's as good. read more

Not great. Not gross. Well maybe their fried rice was a little gross. Nice that there were no knobby parts on their chicken but every piece was like the size of a small worm. Less greasy than most Chinese restaurants which was a plus but still greasy. read more

Place is looking very clean, nice oriental touch . Very friendly stuff and food is amazing. Very tasty . I ordered mongolian beef and hot and sour soup . Very good read more

Everyone here is so nice. The food was good. Orange chicken has a little more spice and definitely an orange flavor. Lo mien was great. Serving sizes were pretty good. They play cool music in the restaurant. read more

For Ma's bday we had a spot in mind. A very nice sit-down in the city. But being a school night with wee kids in tow, we decided to stick local. We didn't know much about Wonder chop beyond the stellar reviews. Had I scoped photos prior and realized it's mainly a carryout I wouldn't have dined in. Because, it's a very casual spot and lacks in ability to serve dine-in customers & it isn't comfortable for a long dining sesh. But, we called and notified them of our arrival. Because we had more than ten, they suggested we pre-order in advance. I put in a few appetizers only but in retrospect should have done as they requested. What I didn't realize, because they're mainly takeout, they don't have as many people working the counter. So, between orders, there's much time where we're just sitting and waiting on any food to emerge from the kitchen. Thankfully they prepared dishes in waves. They didn't bring out dishes one-by-one but would bring rice dishes with entrees so that everyone could dine together. That night was busy for them. They were still able to attend to the many carryout orders placed. Which were constant through the night. Food is fresh, tasty & excellent. Some well known staples like General Tso's should definitely be ordered if you appreciate that entree. We asked if rice dishes could be made spicier which they obliged. Large shrimps in the shrimp fried rice and overall presentation of food was appetizing. Some of our attendees thanked for a good time and saved the restaurant details for future carryout orders. I'm thankful that on short notice they could swing taking care of our group. Don't sleep on this casual Chinese restaurant. Worth a try. read more

Food was OK tasting, but the meat was extremely scrimpy in their Mongolian Beef. It was mostly all green onions. Not sure if it was because we ordered an hour before they closed and they didn't want to make more meat. The steamed veggies with tofu and mushrooms was decent and the sauce came in a separate container. The only thing I really enjoyed was the hot, white rice. read more

I've had better. I've had worse. Definitely not 5 star worthy as the overall rating suggests. 3.5 at best. I've had the orange chicken, sesame chicken, beef and broccoli, and the egg rolls. Solid at best. Temper your expectations. read more

Went to Wonder Chop based on the reviews prior to heading to the Stan Mansion for a show with my wife. There was only one other table occupied when we arrived around 5 pm. The Hot and Sour soup was bland - not spicy enough for me. My wife was equally unimpressed with the Egg Drop soup. I followed that up with the Bean Curd Szechuan Style dish. The bean curd was very soft and served on a plate with what looked like brown sauce. The menu indicated this was a spicy dish, but it really wasn't. It tasted more like soft bean curd served with an abundance of flat American brown gravy. I had to leave half of the dish behind. My wife had a pad-thai-style dish. Equally not impressed. I don't understand why this has such high ratings. Will not be returning. read more

Better than expected. It didn't seem like this place would be that good, but even for being a crappy looking place it was quite a find. Wonder Chop is one of the cheapest places to eat in Bucktown, or wherever. Okay prices on most items so it's pretty cheap. The area is kind of sketchy but not that bad for sure. Americanized Chinese yes, but it's good for what it is. It has a pretty standard menu. There's the basic type of stuff. It's about $9 for an entree. There's mostly beef and chicken, but some things for vegetarians. I picked up the Bean Curd Szechuan Style for carryout. The soft tofu wasn't the kind I prefer, but it tasted good in the hot sauce. Had some good flavor. There were also carrots and onions. Good place for cheap Chinese American food. It's a lot better than it looks. They still haven't reopened the dining room so it's only takeout. read more

Wonder Chop - Bean Curd Szechuan Style - Chinese Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Reasonably priced and delicious is how I would describe Wonder Chop for Chinese food. You can dine in at the immaculate dining room or order carry out. We were seated and served quickly while some soft contemporary piano music filled the air...it was just right. Our food choices came fast. Everything was as fresh as can be and served by who appears to be the owner. A charming lady who is soft spoken, all smiles and takes an interest in your dining experience. The food is carefully prepared and they serve the more traditional Chinese menu items such as home made Egg Phoo Yong, and crispy Egg Rolls served hot and fresh. They offer a wide selection of meat + vegetarian choices and you can add a little more spice if that's what you like. Honestly, we're foodies... we know what we want and searched around for a good clean simple Chinese restaurant. We mostly found fusion choices that although they were good, they just didn't fit. Looking for a new go-to for traditional Chinese... we highly recommend Wonder Chop. You won't de disappointed! read more

We ate in, which is apparently rare. I think takeout is their main thing. The server was exceptionally nice. The food was good, but not exactly what I was expecting. I like my hot and sour a certain way, and while this was very good, not lacking in flavor, and did have lots of mushrooms and other goodies in it, the flavor wasn't exactly what I was looking for. My girlfriend really liked it, so this is just a preference. You can tell it's high quality soup, so it's worth a shot. The flat noodles were pretty good. A little oily as big flat noodles tend to be, but not bad, I'd get them again. The general tso's was good but again, not traditional tso's. Little or no breading and the sauce wasn't that typical very sweet sticky sauce that I like. It was good, and very likely more healthy than typical tso's, but again not that traditional flavor I was looking for. read more

Hello fellow yelpers, found this gem while traveling in Chicago. Went by yelp recommendations and it did not disappoint. Ordered several different appetizers and entrees for takeout and everything was excellent. Great price points for the meals. I would highly recommend this restaurant. read more

Really good food, but takeout order was a bit small and didn't have a lot of protein in a protein dish. In restaurant may be better because the food was delicious. read more

Great food for a great price! combo special is a great value. Service was great. Fortune cookies contain actual fortunes, not just advice or joke saying read more

Solid but not amazing. Orange chicken was too spicy for my 12 year-old. Broccoli was overcooked. Pretty pricey for what you get. That said, clean, cute place with friendly staff. read more

I'm not sure if I ordered the wrong items but my experience at Wonder was average at best. To my surprise the place is takeout only. The place looked extremely clean to say the least & the food looked delicious but after reading several 5 & 4 star reti expected MORE. The rice was bland & the general Tso's chicken wasn't spicy at app. The food simply lacked flavor I doubt I'd return when. mccb is near & Hing Wang still reigns supreme. read more

Ordered takeout tonight. The woman on the phone who took my order was very kind and patient with questions. When we picked up the order, she was incredibly kind and thanked us for our business. The customer experience was 5/5. The food was actually fantastic. I ordered orange chicken (spicy) and it was some of the best I've had in a while. The chicken was lightly breaded, fried perfectly, and all white meat chicken. I ordered a single portion and it was enough to feed 2 people. I've lived near this restaurant for two years and just tried it, I will definitely be returning to try their other menu items. Sorry my phone did not eat first for this one because the food was too fresh! read more

I ordered takeout from Wonder Chop for New Years Eve and it was honestly everything I could ask for! I ordered the vegetarian chop suey along with veggie fried rice and a spring roll and all were delightful. The chop suey could have had a little more sauce BUT it was still very tasty. I will definitely be back to Wonder Chop! read more

My fav Chinese restaurant in the city. Love their lo mein noodles and the service is always amazing! Lovely staff. Always 10/10.

It's hard to describe how fresh this food is. Defies all logic. Best General Tsos chicken in the city. It comes with fresh crunchy broccoli that hasn't been sitting in grease all day. Great prices as well. Just grab a drink at chefs special, take a container of their mustard sauce and walk over to this place to eat read more

Wonder Chop is our favorite Chinese restaurant in Chicago. It has always been consistent. The food is delicious, and the service is excellent. If you like spicy food, make sure to ask for chili garlic oil. It adds additional flavor and heat to the dish. read more

This place is amazing. Fresh food and the staff are wonderful. It is hands down my favorite chinese.

We placed an order for pickup at 620pm. I went to pick up at 645pm and the order wasn't ready as promised. The woman said that they are cooking it now and should be ready at 7pm. It was finally ready at 725pm. They didn't apologize, say they are sorry, or offer any discounts. We ordered sweet and sour chicken but there weren't any veggies. The Kung Pao shrimp was spicy but had no flavor. I do not recommend this restaurant. read more

Great service and great food with BYOB this place is a no-brainer. Great chicken wings. read more

Favorite go to spot in the neighborhood! Food is always delicious and everyone who works here is really nice. Enjoy

Wonder Chop has great Chinese food! It's fresh and flavorful, and not drowned in oil and sauce like so many other places do. You can really tell they know what they're doing and take pride in serving quality food! Also, the portion sizes are very good and they don't skimp on the protein. Another great thing is that they actually read the notes on takeout and delivery orders, so if you ask for no bell peppers or mild spiciness, for example, your food will actually be made that way. Two thumbs up! read more

I wish that we would have tried Wonder Chop sooner. It was absolutely delicious! We had the General Tso combination and Chicken with Garlic Sauce combination. Very flavorful with quality ingredients. It may be the best all around General Tso that I have had. The staff was super friendly as well. I can't wait to order from here again. Matter of fact, we are going back this weekend. - B read more

Came with a friend after leaving the Bucktown Art Fest. Didn't even know this place existed. The atmosphere was nice and the lady who served us was so polite. I ordered from the combination platter, chicken lo mein. It came with fried rice and an egg roll. It was a good portion and ended up take some home. Everything was good and will definitely will be returning. read more

Best General Tso's I've had in a while. Moist and tender all white meat that wasn't overly breaded or fried, and the sauce wasn't overly sweet like many other places. The crab rangoon was decent, but the one complaint was on the hot and sour soup. It really wasn't great, it lacked flavor and barely had any meat. Stick to the Tso's. read more

love love love this place. I have gotten takeout from here multiple times and the woman who is in there when I pick up my order couldn't be sweeter!! Their egg rolls are PHENOMENAL and I don't even really like egg rolls that much. I have tried a couple of noodle dishes and a couple chicken dishes and I really enjoy both. The chicken is so flavorful and cooked to perfection. Portions are very good for the price and I will continue to be a customer. read more

We order take out most Sundays from here they they don't miss! Chicken and broccoli is so fresh and they roast the broccoli. I can't speak to the ambiance because we've never been. read more

Wonder chop = Wonderful. We live right down the street about less than a 10 minute walk. Thought we'd go check out the lunch special and guess we found a lunch spot for our Wednesday work from home days. Great options for lunch rather you want sushi or Chinese or both! We opt in for sushi this time around. 3 rolls for $10 + miso soup, what a steal! Especially, when the fish to rice ratio on the maki rolls are perfect. To be honest, I didn't think I was going to get full from 3 rolls but I did. Next time, we would have to check out the Chinese lunch special. Waiter was really friendly & accommodating to make modification to my order since I didn't want cucumber as well. Lost of 1 star due to the wait time for the food to come. A quick lunch turned into a full hour of lunch probably because it was lunch time and they had all these to go orders. So we kept that in mind that if we were to order out, it might be more ideal to order in advance so it doesn't cut into going over our lunch time. read more

We ordered through yelp (fulfilled by Grub Hub). Process was seamless. Food was ready on time. Staff at the restaurant were so nice and courteous. Only a few people dining in. I think take-out is their main business. Sushi is closed until the summer. Restaurant is BYOB. Portions are great! Taste was the best Chinese I've had in Chicago. I will ordering exclusively from here. Chicken Lomein- only white meat chicken, not greasy; Sesame chicken, not overly breaded or fried, only white meat and not too sweet/saucy w/ just a little heat; fried rice- great fresh veggies! ALL DELICIOUS read more

Can't recommend this place enough. It's the most affordable meal you're going to find in Chicago, I swear. And it's delicious too. We ordered delivery on New Years Eve, and our food was ready in under 30 mins. Egg drop soup for $2.50 in the city?? I was shocked. The portions of the combination plates and noodle dishes are large enough for leftovers. And we even got a bonus egg roll that we didn't order. The leftovers were perfect at 1 am to ring in the New Year. Can't recommend enough! read more

I must have walked past this place a hundred times without even seeing it. Don't know what brought me in today but I'm so glad I've discovered it--truly outstanding. The service was warm and personable and the food was WAY better than I've learned to expect from an undecorated empty Chinese place. I had fried rice (delicious) and Broccoli Beef (even better!) with broccoli not just steam-cooked like every other Asian restaurant but lightly ROASTED. That subtle flavor of char elevated this dish above every broccoli-centric Asian meal I've ever had--and I've had a LOT of those. My server took care to check that I wanted fried rice plus a dish that came with white rice (I did) and suggested some ways I could save money by restructuring my order. I arrived toward closing time but was not rushed whatsoever. Highly recommended. read more
