Chef Chen's

I've been eating here for years. The food is pretty good and if you're talking about Chinese food in Redwood City this place should be in the conversation of places to try. I love the bbq pork fried rice and sesame beef and the chicken version. The service is quick and to the point and you can get back to work if you're short on time. The inside is small but has a welcoming feeling to it.

I was craving some American Chinese food so I decided to try Chef Chen's. Ordering online from their website was easy and the food was ready within 10-15 minutes after ordering. There is no indoor seating. It is takeout only.I overall thought the food was just okay and a bit under seasoned surprisingly. I actually reached for the salt shaker for the food. I did find the portions to be large though so I thought I got decent value here.-beef and broccoli was kind of bland and gummy. This one needed salt.-kung pao chicken was also okay but needed salt. Chicken was a tiny bit dry.-sesame chicken was not bad, a bit on the sweet side but I kind of liked it actually. If you reheat you should use a toaster oven or equivalent so that it's crispy.

Very good take out food. We just started ordering so haven't tried all of the dishes. Was nice and hot by the time we got home (upper RWC area)

The food is very reliable... great prices. I've eaten here a dozen times! Great lunch specials. Usually 10-15 minute wait.

Ambiance: this restaurant seems to be only for carry out or delivery. No indoor seating available, just as a fyi. Service: quick, no frills service. They have a menu posted on the door when you walk up to order. I think their specials change on a rotating basis. Food was prepared in less than 10 minutes after ordering for me. Food: just as you would expect. Most of the menu items are standard Chinese American dishes. The price is somewhat on the pricier side as dishes will run you -12-15$ but I think they do a decent job of giving adequate portions, as it will probably feed average person 1-2 meals. Ive only tried their walnut chicken, which satisfied the craving. Nothing too special to write home about. Some of the chicken pieces were too doughy, but it tasted freshly prepared.

I've been to this restaurant plenty of times I regret it now I just pulled up. I saw the chef outside cutting his toenails. I went to the door and ordered my food. The chef came from behind after cutting his toes, grab the plate and the piece of paper with my order on it and started trying to make my food. I told the guy forget it. I did not want the food. He was just cutting his toes and he did not wash his hands.

We love the beef and broccoli, sweet and sour pork, and almond chicken it's not cheap but the food is good for special occasions. A lot of nearby companies order from here. Diffidently 5 star Chinese food.

Amazing food. I live in San Jose and I will make a special trip to go to Chef Chens Walnut Shrimp is amazing Lemon Chicken is awesome. Make a point to taste it. GREAT FOOD

Our favorite chinese food place in the area closed down permanently last month. So we went out looking for a new spot and came across Chef Chens. The food is really good and tasty! FYI- they only have food to go only

Been going here for a few weeks now and everything ive tried has been fantastic. Super friendly and good portions. Best chinese ive had in a long time. Free parking in the lot too
