Fuji Chen

Em. The best Chinese Place in Providence Mall!!! … And you dont have another choice.

This is the best bang for your buck. I love Fuji Chen. I’ve been there 3 or 4 times since discovering it.
It’s hidden in the back of the Providence mall food court and there’s always a cheerful and smiling employee handing out free samples
For 6.99 you get a huge plate of food. Very filling, and very appetizing. Best orange sesame chicken I’ve ever had!
Please look passed the construction at the mall and find Fuji Chen. You will not be disappointed whatsoever. I have introduced 5 of my friends to Fuji Chen and we keep coming back.
Tip: do not go to the one in Massachusetts. Unlike the one in RI, they scam you and try to give you food poisoning.

Delicious and fresh food, chicken is superb with generous portions. Rangoons are a must. Has the spicy sauce on the side my dad loves. Much better than the experience I had at yesterdays restaurant.
Originally came here 7 months ago for visit, came back and this place hasn’t changed… thankfully.

This is the worst American Chinese food I’ve ever had. I went there three times and tried different dishes each time, but the food was so salty and greasy no matter which one I picked! The food tasted so badly that I couldn’t even finish my plate.

I actually hated this food. It is like generic American Chinese food. Frozen food is better. Mine plate had the low mein, which as others noted is spaghetti with some grated carrot and onion. Just not anything worthy of mentioning, My two friends agreed, this was bad but we were starving.

Ever since I was little I’ve had a poorer than average sense of taste and smell. It has it’s blessings and curses, but with food typically means I prefer food that is stronger than tasting than most. So take the flavor review here with a grain of salt (or pepper), but textures are super important to me.
Today I had the pepper chicken, and some crab rangoons. The chicken had (for me) just the right amount of spice to it. It was very subtle, but I could taste it. It’s likely spicier than I realize, but I spoke with the owner and he said it’s not the spiciest item on the menu. The chicken was battered and fried, and this was done well. The outside had a nice crunch to it, and the chicken on the inside was still moist.
I’ve heard the crab rangoons here are amazing, and today got to try them. They definitely do not skimp on the filling!!! Again, a great crunch combined with the creamy filling is really all you can ask for. I definitely recommend them.
There are multiple options for Asian Cuisine in the Providence Place Mall food court, if you’re looking for that — stop here.

This place has some awesome items I have never seen before and run of the mill Chinese places. The pepper chicken is like spicy crack. Seriously. So much flavor in a dry entry, they do something to get the flavoring into it with out loading it up on sauce. You gotta try it, the flavor is subtle but builds as you eat it. Reminds me of some of the real Chinese food I get in California. Must be an OG behind the scenes! BBQ pork was also pretty damn boss, no fat, and crispy edges.

Quick stop for lunch while at the mall and the sesame chicken was good but cold and the lo mein was just fried spaghetti basically, veggies were ok. I am comparing this to a Panda Express and it is disappointing

I wanted something quick to hold me over until a nicer dinner so after orbiting the food court a couple times I settled here. I will say that the food isn’t horrible. It’s what I would consider default Americanized Chinese food. After all they actually have «buffalo chicken» in one of their steam trays.
I had the BBQ pork and the sesame chicken. Like I said for mall food, not bad. I also got a fountain diet coke. Trying to watch my figure and such which sadly was very watered down.
That being said, if your hungry. This place won’t kill you, it’s very default, and I probably wouldn’t come back. That being said I’m very much looking forward to dinner at one of the real restaurants around here later tonight.

The food here is Lousy… box Italian pasta for Lo Mein… if u go for lunch you’ll get left over from past day… I had chicken… that was 2 different colors …

First off the pic is true. It is fake lo mien, though mine didn’t even look as good. It was spaghetti! The bourbon chicken tasted ok but better elsewhere. The vegetable side was also an ok. I don’t plan to go back. I should stick what I know. I was had… spaghetti …come on!

BEST sesame chicken I’ve ever had in my life. I’m not joking. My girlfriend used to live in rhode island and when I would visit I would find every excuse possible to go to the mall so I could have the sesame chicken at fuji chen. I now live in California and dream about this chicken every night.

These guys are like crack dealers. They ambush you with pieces of toothpick pierced pieces of warm, sticky, sweet and sour tasting chicken. A perfect balance of tang and sweetness. One bite and you’re hooked. How can you say no? Its an offer you cant refuse.
Choose your side, rice or noodles. Then choose from the array of meat/​vegetable entrees. I usually go for something with chicken and vegetables. It’s everything a food court meal should be. Greasy, warm, salty and just a tad bit sweet. Oh yeah, and the servings are generous. You’re guaranteed to be eating for at least two days if you get the two entrée meal.
Make no mistake, you’re probably consuming tons of msg, sodium, cornstarch, fat and food additives. But it tastes great and you’ll be satisfied. Sometimes, that’s all that matters.

It’s great for the fresh Chinese student to have food here:) Especially after a very tied registration process and orientation, it’s so good to have a home feel food here.

4 or 5 stars? NEVER! This is mediocre Chinese food at best. I am being generous giving them 2 stars.
The sesame chicken was just ok. It wasn’t bad but not one of those things I’ve got to have again. As for the wonton soup, it was disgusting. Dirty dish water would have probably tasted better.

In summary it’s good food at a good price. I’ve tried the other restaurants in the food court and this one definitely gives you the best bang for the buck. The portions are large so some of you might have to pack some home which means 2 meals for the price of 1 !. well in my case it’s really a meal now and a snack later but I’ll gladly heat it up and enjoy it later. All the choices I’ve tried are good but I especially enjoy the Mushroom chicken. The side order of crab rangoon is good too. It was crispy and the meat inside was very tasty.
The downside is the paid parking. If I was in the mall already and shopping this would be my top choice but having to pay for parking otherwise is a turnoff.

Honestly in all of Providence I find Fugi Chen to be top notch. Unlike most mall food, Fugi Chen tastes like authentic American-​Chinese food every time. I recommend their Sesame Chicken with half fried rice and half low mein noodles. They charge the perfect amount for a heaping pile of whatever you order too.
One time I was at the mall when it was just about to open and I waited for them to put out the Sesame Chicken. It was worth the wait, for when I finally got my hands on those warm, savory pieces of chicken, I was satisfied.

Formerly known as Cathay Cathay, this new Chinese place has great food for a great low price.
I was lurred into this food court fiasco by one of the workers offering me a free sample of their Sesame Chicken, which surprisingly, was good. I decided to check this place out for real. I ordered a Super Combo which gave me a choice of three items with either lo mein or fried rice for $ 6.99, not a bad deal if you ask me. I ordered the Sesame Chicken, Mushroom Chicken (fresh mushrooms to boot!), lo mein, and an order of Crab Rangoon.
Next time I’ll be sure to order a smaller combo because, like Cathay Cathay once did, they give you A LOT of food. I finished half and took the rest with me.
Now if only they had General Tso and Orange Chicken… they didn’t have much of a selection when I went there a few days ago. They just opened so I guess that counts for something.
Reguardless, they earn four stars, but I still think Cathay Cathay was the best. I miss it.
