Taste Of China

They have the best combo fried rice hands down. I have eaten a lot of fried rice and I have yet to find one better than here. I order carry out several times a month from here and for a large 9.95 container of rice (which they fill to more than the max– they aren’t stingy with the meat either) it is pretty worth it to me. That can feed 3 adults easily! I have not explored the rest of the menu much since I always order my fried rice. Maybe I’ll do another review if I ever order something else. For now, go try that fried rice!

Called and ordered delivery at 8:06 on Thursday night. They close at 9. At 9:02 I started calling them to ask where my order was. No answer. Writing this now at 9:30. No food. No call. No show. Didn’t even bother to let us know. ** update**. Just showed up at 9:46 saying his gps isn’t working. Expected me to pay full price for cold food. Never bothered to call and ask for more directions besides the detailed ones I gave while ordering.

Awful! Completely disgusting. I went to go eat here with my friend and we both had a bad experience. She found hair in her shrimp fried rice and my beef and broccoli was less than appetizing. The meat they used was strange in texture and my food REEKED. It was so bad that I am at a loss for words to describe how gross it smelled. Even my friend commented on how horrible it smelled and she sat across the table from me!
Complete waste of money. I will never go back to this place ever again. No one was wearing a hair net and the girl at the cashier had her long hair just draping down even though she went back into the kitchen. Very disappointed. The stomach ache is not worth it.

This little store front takeout place has good fresh food. The place is clean, the service is fast and friendly, and very generous portions for a nice price. I also like that I can order all white meat chicken in my entrees. Here is the caveat, my order has never been 100% correct in the 20 – 25 times I’ve been there. Whether requesting hold the mushrooms and finding them included, or just getting the entrees mixed up all together. (Such as ordering chicken Kung Pao and I get Szechwan chicken instead.) This place is located very close to my house, thus I’m willing to take the gamble over and over. You never know what you’re going to get but it’s generally good and always hot.
Also, make sure you ask for chopsticks, they don’t come with the order unless requested.

All I have to say is that the vegtable egg rolls are really good and that my gluten free wife did not have a problem with the chicken spring rolls. She also said that they were good enough to get again. I would like to comment further but those are the only things we ordered. The service was also good.

Great food, fast delivery. but very expensive! I ordered the orange chicken and vegetable fried rice with baby corn and it was 28.00 $

This was our first time and we are believers. We will definitely order from here again!

We have always gotten our Chinese food here (12 years)! We usually order Crab Rangoon, Egg Rolls, Potstickers and Sweet & Sour Chicken. We have never had a bad experience!

Great food. Clean and open view of the kitchen. Efficient and high quality service.
Cons:
Would like an option to ban all MSG from my account permanently.
Add brown rice option for health conscious consumers

I have ordered from Taste several times. The food is pretty good but they have gotten my order wrong about ½ the time. It gets old having to check my order before I leave the store. I mean come on, McDonalds can even get that right.

I used to be a regular here because it was right across the street from my old house. I moved to the other side of Naperville about 6 months ago and have been trying other Chinese take out places that are closer to my current home. Nothing compares to Taste of China!
Tonight I ordered vegetable fried rice and egg drop soup. I typically always get chicken fried rice but decided to change up my order tonight and I am so glad I did! There were so many yummy vegetables in this rice, including broccoli, pea ponds, carrots, mushrooms, water chestnuts, YUM! Both items were still piping hot after my 20 minute ride home, another big plus!!!

The Lo Mein was so salty it was not edible, and the General Tso’s Chicken was not good either. It was to expensive for the portion that we got. I would never go back.

Very friendly and quick. The food is pretty good too. It is very pricey though, for what you get. Unlike many chinese food places, the egg rolls are not that greasy.

We ordered carry out from here one rainy evening and got the following:
— Gon Chow Ngau Ho (standard, not terrible)
— BBQ Pork Fried Rice (same, pretty decent)
— Beef with Broccoli (POISON! Okay, not poison, but it was def funky)
Let’s elaborate. Since I’m a lady, I’m not really familiar with the smell of a urinal. However, my boo informed me that the beef with broccoli did, in fact, smell like a urinal. It was weird and creepy and we didn’t eat it.
We called the place and they let us bring it back for a refund. Later, we asked our chef friend for potential reasons why the food would have smelled so bad. His guess was that the broccoli was probably really old, which is a better scenario than using urinal cakes as an ingredient. But it is still a little off putting.
So long story short, very standard carry out with questionably fresh ingredients. I’ve had a lot better. Wah wahhhhhh!

A pleasant surprise! We did carry out tonight after I realized it was far too hot and muggy to hold myself accountable for cooking. Our wait time was minimal; ready in 10 minutes. The portions are enormous, a large menu item is enough for 3 – 4. Ordered some staple items — eggroll, Hunan Beef, and General Tso’s Chicken. Sometimes I just want my standard Americanized Chinese food and Taste of China did a great job providing me exactly that. Meat was REAL — with no odds and ends and all white-​meat chicken. Everything was yummy, well-​packed, and hot when we came home. Their staff was super friendly when I arrived and very welcoming. The experience was exactly what I was hoping for and it seems as though Taste of China may just have become our restaurant away from Chinatown.

When we order Chinese we always order from here. It has never disappointed us. My only gripe is when Chinese restaurants staple the carry out containers. Im always wondering if one got in my order. Yea I have issues

Fresh white meat chicken, NOT cubed. well worth the price. ordered chicken fried rice. w no sprouts. best in the area. fabulous!

The food is excellent. I have tried a number of dishes and liked them all. A little pricey so I knocked off a star for that. Service for take-​out is very friendly.

Been eating from this place since they opened up in Naperville in 2000 or 2001. Great food and great staff. Egg rolls, wonton soup, and friend rice is great. I have tried everything on their menu and it’s all good. I still haven’t found this good of food in NJ and crave this all the time. Prices are great and they have great lunch specials.

Okay, so I used to work here when I was in high school, so you have to take everything I say with a grain of salt, but the food here is pretty damn good.
It’s true that Taste of China goes a little heavy on the cornstarch, but what quick chinese takeout place doesn’t? What really shines at Taste are their huge eggrolls, delicious crab rangoons, and phenomenal Hong Sue Chicken or Shrimp.
The eggrolls are thick and stuffed with delicious cabbage, shrimp, pork, and soy sauce and always hit the spot. Kids come home and want Portillos. I come home and want eggrolls. (P.S. They have a veggie eggroll if you can’t do the meat)
The crab rangoon is also great: huge triangles filled with crab and cream cheese, guaranteed to melt in your mouth. Delicious.
Okay, Hong Sue. It’s a dark brown sauce that is savory (and not spicy) and has no cornstarch. It comes with veggie like water chestnuts, carrots, mushrooms, snap peas, and bamboo shoots. It comes with a side of breaded *insert pork, chicken, beef, shrimp here* and is to die for with rice. Seriously, my go to dish pretty much every time.
Overall, a very good take out place. Yes, the price range is a little high, but those damn eggrolls are what makes it worth it. :)
