Customer Reviews
A nice experience overall. Food is good especially those Chinese food that’s rare to find in usual American restaurants such as the duck, and it’s cooked pretty good.
Great food here, hot and fresh. Come see Eric the manager.
I’ve grown up eating at the Chinatown location but I decided to give this place a try. I’m so glad I did. I’ve been looking for a good Chinese takeout spot on the Northshore and this is both a takeout and a fancier/special occasion eat in spot as well. It was very easy for me to order online from their website . I ordered during the arctic storm and they had my food ready very promptly. Staff was super kind . I got their lunch special which was so affordable . Highly recommend! It comes with white/fried rice and an eggroll or crab Rangoon . Crab Rangoon was huge ! If you are dining in, a soup is included . Lunch was about $12 for a lot of good quality super flavorful food. Normally the fried rice that comes with lunch specials at other Chinese restaurants are sub par but not here . The fri
April 1, 2025 – Went to Lao Sze Chuan for an early birthday dinner celebration with family. We started with crab rangoon as an appetizer, followed by a variety of dishes: Combination fried rice Combination chow mein Crispy shrimp with lemon sauce Sautéed garlic pork chop Mongolian beef Chef’s special dry chili chicken Pea pod leaves with fresh garlic Overall, the food was flavorful, with the chef’s special dry chili chicken standing out as a favorite. However, the Mongolian beef was surprisingly sweet, and some of the pea pod leaf stems were a bit tough to chew. Despite these minor issues, we had a great time. The ambience was pleasant, and the staff was attentive, making for an enjoyable dining experience at Lao Sze Chuan.
I ordered the chicken fried rice, sweet and sour chicken, orange chicken, and vegetables—and every single dish was packed with flavor, fresh, and perfectly cooked. The chicken was tender, the sauces were rich without being overwhelming, and the fried rice was spot-on. Everything tasted like it was made with care. I would recommend this place to absolutely everyone looking for delicious, quality Chinese food. I’ll definitely be coming back!
