I think that the cooks have changed..the food is different, even the chicken wings are different. The food is more bland. Not sure what happened. It was my go to place.

Diner Review №3

Really great Chinese takeout. Hard to find good Americanized Chinese takeout that’s not super upscale in the Chicago area, but this place hits it right on the head. Huge portions, good food (really good fried rice), and cheap (especially considering the portion sizes).

Diner Review №4

The inside of this place looks a bit sketchy but the food is consistent and decent... Very quick service

Not sure of it's the same owners but I've been eating at this location for 25 years. Great food at a decent price. Lately the Mongolian beef has been my go to. The orange chicken, Szechuan wonton, and spicy chicken wings are good as well. The also have quite a large selection of items I'd say more that alot of other Chinese restaurants.

2/27/24 Sounds and tastes like they've changed ownership and food as definitely gone down hill its ok id still eat here but nowhere what it used to be. Also why do you list your hours to open at 11 but don't answer the phone at 11?

This was my first time ordering from here after my last spot fell off and wow was the food AMAZING. It has been a while since I had some real good Chinese food. They were quick with the delivery, very nice on the phone and delivery driver was super patient. (I couldn’t find my shoes) lol I never write reviews but I had to with this one!

Great Service and food is delicious! They go above and beyond. I ordered through a delivery app. and some of my order was missing, but the young man who answered the phone said he would deliver the rest of my order and he sure did! Very happy with their service and food. We've been ordering from Wing Wah Lau for over 10 years.

I thought the dumplings would be steamed. They were fried very chewy not good chicken broccoli was OK broccoli was undercooked. I like crunchy vegetables when they’re cooked correctly. A small shrimp broccoli literally had only seven pieces of shrimp

I’m so glad I found this place. Chinese takeout 🥡 can be hit or miss at times. This was my first time here but it won’t be my last. Not the best ambience but the food SMACK!!

Diner Review №25

Really good food would come again this place seemed interesting at first but turns out the cashier is fantastic very nice but a little shy I would prefer you order out as there is limited amount seats

Diner Review №26

I had the Mongolian beef dinner. Very very good, better than many other spots in the area. Dont let the fact that this place doesn't have 4.5 or higher on Google fool you. Try it, you won't regret it.

Diner Review №39

Ordered through Uber Eats after seeing their good reviews. Yes the food was hot & fresh. Though this is the blandest fried rice we've ever had. Crab rangoons are just all cream cheese. Chicken was good. Will not order from them again.

I don’t know if I was just hungry BUT the food was absolutely AMAZING! It was super fresh! Felt like I was at a restaurant. The spring rolls were nice and crunchy!!

Diner Review №62

Never had a problem ordering for delivery until today. Always got delivery and the gentlemen tells me over the phone that my location is too far when it’s 10 min away. He was super rude about it and just hung up on me. Lost a very loyal customer due to this.

Diner Review №63

Diner Review №67

Diner Review №68

We have been getting takeout from Wing Wah Lau for decades, and the food has always been dependably good. I tried something new tonight—the spicy Korean chicken—and may have found my new favorite!

Diner Review №69

In times where I crave some orange chicken, crab rangoons, fried rice, etc. they always have good food in their menu. I have been a regular here for years now, with delivery making it easier to order as well.

Diner Review №70

Fran was always friendly when I dined in long ago. Food was always good.

Diner Review №71

Closed on mondays. Food is really really good. Best asian food in this neighborhood. This restaurant is not fancy. Its your neighborhood mom and pop but dont judge a book by its cover. The food is 🔥 you must try it.

Diner Review №72

Diner Review №73

Not my First time coming here I’ve come here regularly several times over the years it’s a neighborhood restaurant.. However I wasn’t to happy with the service in which I received today usually it good even the delivery people.. I Ordered chicken wings I asked was it pieces like the winglets or whole wings since it was six for eight dollars the girl not the regular lady lied and said there whole wings when they was pieces so I paid eight dollars for three wings it’s okay because I decide to share my story on their platform about dishonesty it makes no sense when people trying to give you business and you lie about something so small however you lost a customer..

Diner Review №74

Family owned and operated since I can remember love this place and its staff.

Diner Review №83

First time trying this place out. I read all reviews before going, which some are Pretty bad but decided to give it a try.

Food tasted good, and also a pretty nice amount for the price I paid which was a lunch special. The only thing was that when I got there the place looks kind of bad from the outside and the inside is a little dirty looking 😕😕😕 soooo that was upsetting lol it’s always nice to pick up your food when you get there and the restaurant is looking nice and clean.

I purchased a order of pork egg foo young for delivery on 6/19/21. The pork in the dish was not chewable. I have been ordering from this place for sometime. I would love to hear from the owner.

Diner Review №86

Diner Review №87

My first time it was great, then second time it was good, the third time it was was very upsetting, the chicken fried rice was very muchy like it was 3days old and the rest was also the same, very disappointing, I thought I found a great Chinese restaurant. So sorry

Diner Review №140

I hate that they didn’t deliver to my address, BUT the food was so good. I have tried several and they are so greasy and no great taste to it. This was by far the best and so, I don’t mind the drive. We ordered the shrimp fried rice, sesame seed chicken, and spring rolls. We got a 3 free Crab Rangoons! They were all delicious and neatly packaged with napkins, forks, sauces, and fortune cookies! Will definitely reorder and recommend to my friends and family!

Deere’s 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.

I’ll be writing a negative review everywhere I can. They threw away food or repackaged it I’m sure. DO NOT ORDER from here

Diner Review №165

Food was easy to order. Crab ragoon, lo mein, and potstickers were delicious. Fried rice was oily and pork tasted microwaved. The sweet and sour chicken had also been reheated and needed seasoning/salt. Delivery person also asked directly for a tip which was kind of strange.

Diner Review №166

Diner Review №167

The food have no flavor and the rice was burned and not a good taste

Diner Review №168

Food is good. I had the Orange chicken special, Orange chicken was crispy and not drowning in sauce, chicken fried rice was also good but them egg rolls where DELISH!!! wished I had got more egg rolls.

Diner Review №169

Pretty good

Diner Review №170

We love their Chinese food there, it's the closest thing we can get without making the long trip to Chinatown!!! The portion is very generous with the lunch specials you can get two meals out of one!!! They make their fried rice fresh for each lunch box, not the typical of making a batch and scoop it when it's needed. Lady at the front desk is very nice and friendly!!!

Diner Review №180

Ordered from them they forgot something and when I called they said they sent it, but it was not in the bag. Instead of just sending it back to me they said they would credit it and next time I order they would send it out. To bad I don't live in the area, or it would be okay. But why they could not send it now Lord only knows.
