6 reviews for Chopstick Express Chinese Restaurant
This place is average, but I didn't get sick! Plus, they had little to no MSG in their cooking.
It's in a strip mall on Harlem ave, in Chicago's farthest northwest side neighborhood. You can eat in, but most people seem to utilize Chopstick Express for carryout and delivery.
Other people are right, it's not very adventurous or spicy, but did the other reviewers honestly expect something extraordinary that you might find in River North or Chinatown?
Their rice and meat dishes are appetizing and are good for a quick Chinese meal. They are easy on the spices here, which is fine by me since I can only eat so much of that.
I don't get why everything that is described as spicy has no spices in it. Over all bland and not really to exciting.
I ordered two dinner specials, beef & broccoli and the bourbon chicken both small. It was 19 bucks and the food was horrible. I took our meals back to the restraunt for a full refund. I really did try to eat it because we were starving but I just could not do it.
Fairly new Chinese take-out restaurant in Edison Park. My favorites: Mongolian Beef (fantastic - it has mushrooms in it), Orange Chicken, and Shrimp Fried Rice (huge shrimp). Great egg rolls and usually free if you order enough. Seems like every time we have ordered, they have given something free. Edison Park Chinese places have this tendancy to close quickly or change owners. I hope this place does not change or close! I love it! It is my absolute favorite for Chinese take-out!
Added: Also remembered I had Mongolian Chicken too. All right - not as good as Mongolian Beef. And if we want chicken, Orange chicken was terrific.
This is my go-to place for Chinese delivery. It's not great, but it is pretty darn cheap and quick to deliver. Egg rolls and other fried things are very dry and tasteless. I usually order soups or the entrees which are so big they can feed me for 3 days. Since this is (literally!) one of two places that actually deliver to me, I utilize them when I am too tired to cook, but it is in no way a favourite or recommended place.
Pretty Darn Bland if you ask me. I ordered a chicken dish that was supposed to be spicy, but it was bland as cardboard, and the egg rolls were a total grease bomb. Now I"m of the belief that Chinese food is all pretty much the same, but this was way below average.
