👍👍 I’ve have ordered from here using door dash a number of times and I am never disappointed. The food is always delicious, hot and fresh when it arrives. My favorite is the extra spicy beef and broccoli and pot stickers. People often mention spicy, good,

    I found it to be extremely clean, great service, and most of all delicious. I'm glad I came back and look forward to visiting soon.

    My husband and I decided to stop by this place and have dinner here. We Have ordered this on delivery before, but having it fresh was next level!! The star of the show was a stir fried chili spinach. It was not too spicy light and refreshing, and it was season well enough nothing had to be added to it. I definitely love the scallops with salt and pepper It’s a must try if you love seafood!!! Our waitress was lovely, and was very attentive to us. She also decided to give us a free soup, and it was absolutely to die for highly recommend, and they will be definitely seeing us again❤️❤️ Dish names: Sesame beef, sweet-and-sour, chicken, salt and pepper scallop, Stirred fried Spinach w Chilis, & Beef lo mein

    Was looking for dinner last night and the places I was wanting did not pan out. Saw this place and figured why not. It was a great choice. The Mapo Tofu and the Lamb with Cumin were fantastic. I wish I lived closer saw so many dishes on the menu I would love to try. The 2 dishes were large enough that I even had leftovers for breakfast.

    As a Chinese, I have to say the food is very delicious. It is way better than Laoischuan in downtown. High recommend Szechuan boiled beef, and Szechuan pork belly, ganbian green long been. If you love spicy food, you will enjoy the same as me.

    Food is authentic, well prepared, at reasonable prices. I thought the sweet and sour fish was too sweet; the fish with black bean sauce is better. Beijing style eggplant is also very good. My wife loves spicy food and this restaurant has a wide selection.

    Hubby and I went based off the reviews. Well, coming from Chicago, it was a little disappointing. Could not taste any seasoning, food was very bland leaving us to use salty soy sauce as seasoning. The noodles were dry and sticky with heavy curry seasoning only, and the egg Foo young gravy was thick with no flavoring. Service was excellent, we sadly won't be returning.

    Good food and GREAT customer service!! I ordered the schezwhan green beans and did not know it had shrimp. Even though it was my mistake, they were kind enough to replace and make again as garlic green beans for me with no issues and a smile too!!! The food is amazing!!! And the fact they went out of their way for a mistake I made to make it right for me says a lot. FIVE STARS ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    I have been looking for a new Chinese restaurant for some time now and decided to try Lao Size Chuan. I purchased shrimp fried rice, egg rolls and their brown gravy. Finally tab was around $25.00 and was it worth it. The rice had green peas in it which I had never seen, but I was very impressed with the quantity of food and the quality. It wasn't salty at all which let me know that it didn't have an exceptional amount of Msg which was fantastic. I will be going again and highly recommend them.

    I have been looking for an old fashioned, classic Chinese food place. I finally convinced my husband to try it out on Friday night. It wasn't too busy when we arrived, but as we were leaving they were getting busy. Huge menu! We ordered the Orange Chicken, Chicken and Broccoli and Chicken Fried Rice. All were huge portions and excellent! Reasonably priced, too. I was happy to find just what I was looking for here and we will certainly be back. The interior isn't anything crazy nor does it have to be if the food is good - it was clean and that is most important. The parking lot was large enough that we got a space easily. I really enjoyed the hot tea and almond cookies. Looks like they get a lot of repeat business - we will be back soon, too!

    First time visited this location... The food is pretty good but.... This location need a total update lol The parking lot is all sand, small rock and dust! The inside looks old and the washroom was worse lol.  The faucet is broken lol There were six tables on a friday, range from two ppl to six ppl in a tables and the service was slow...Lol Even tho the waiter came by three times, once take our order, one gave us food and one gave us the Bill.... According to the menu more than four ppl a 18% tips is added lol While the food is better than average it's hard to come back lol

    Second time here for lunch and the food is so good. This time we tried the wonton soup with Kung Pao Shrimp, which was kinda spicy and combination egg foo yong. The portions are huge and yet priced reasonably. Music/radio is missing and seems odd to me to dine in a super quiet space. Love this place!! Great food and authentic evidenced by many Asians dining here.

    This place just looks tired. Needs a fresh look inside and out. Nothing special about food..menu too many choice a, but not enough attention to detail. Was told Orange chicken was spicy but not citrus-y at all.

    1st time visiting this place. Drove 20 miles. Egg rolls perfectly crisp. Large serving of entrees which were great but the serving platters were cold. Not sure why but server said the kitchen was cold. We ate until satisfied and brought the rest home. There were only a few guests dining in but they have a huge carryout business. Recommend: yes.

    It was Easter Sunday and I entered the restaurant where I saw nobody. Was finally greeted after talking out loud. I ordered pork egg rolls and Peking duck. The pork egg rolls were ok, the sweet sour sauce in the bottle was horrible. The Peking duck was great!! The skin crispy and meat moist. The pancakes were dry that accompanied the duck. The server was a no show my entire meal. If you want Peking duck, come here

    Since I moved to IL I havent found a chinese restaurant that has good fried rice. Most times it is white rice with a sprinkle of soy sauce. Not at this restauran, I love their frid rice. I order it atleast once a week!

    Delicious, fresh, authentic Chinese food. A bit pricey which is why I gave 4 stars instead of 5. Had spring rolls, crab rangoon, Orange beef - best in the area!

  • 5/5 Erik D. 1 year ago on Google
    Food is excellent excellent. Always thought of it more as a takeout place but they have a dining room. Big Lazy Susan in the middle of the table so everybody was able to share the dishes with each other. Everything hot fresh and delicious. Waitress did a good job. Give it a try if you haven't
