We decide to do takeout and see how Chen's is doing with the old standby's -- Won Ton soup, egg rolls and General Chicken. The soup was good; a small to go has about 5 won tons and enough broth for two. So we have a second small for tomorrow! The egg rolls were strange. Very dense with no noticeable pork, just cabbage. Taste was just ok. The General Chicken was good with the right amount of spice. It was a huge portion, mostly chicken. I would have liked more peppers and sauce. Overall, it's still on our occasional list and I hope for further improvement.

The service is A+, our server was very kind and helpful. The food was AMAZING. 4 of us went, ate our full and we still had 2-3 servings left of each dish. The prices are REALLY good. The ambiance is soft and dimly lit. All around a wonderful experience.

Having visited this restaurant multiple times throughout the years, it still remains a favourite of mine. You wouldn't expect to see a beautiful, old school Chinese restaurant that's impossible to tell from the outside. Starting off with a couple appetizers, the pan-fried dumplings were delicious and 100% homemade. Crisp exterior and tender filling on the inside. The fried squid was phenomenal. Possibly the best fried squid I've had in Rochester. These were fried to perfection and the squid was tender and fresh. For mains, we opted in for sweet & sour shrimp which is difficult to get wrong. The shrimp itself was ginormous which was great, and the sauce had the perfect balance between sweet & sour and the consistency was great. We also opted in for the market priced crispy seabass. This took me by surprise as I wasn't expecting such a huge fish, fried and accompanied with a great slightly sweet and savory sauce. The presentation alone left my jaw on the ground. The seabass was crispy on the outside and succulent on the inside. Overall, a great dinner, an amazing atmosphere and friendly service from "Wendy." 10/10

Overall wonderful date night. Ambiance was romantic and quiet. We were seated immediately at a booth for two. We had a reservation as well, however we didn't need it. The food came out piping hot. We had to wait a moment for it to cool. For appetizers we ordered pan fried veggie spring rolls. These did not disappoint with the right amount of flavor and crunch. We also shared the 10 piece veggie dumplings. I loved dipping them in the spicy sauce (which wasn't spicy and instead gave them an extra pow or oomph of flavor in each bite). Then we each had Wonton Soup. For entrees the Sweet and Sour Chicken and the Shrimp and mixed vegetables with white sauce. Each meal here is delicious and filling. Definitely leftovers for another meal. A good value overall. Wendy our server was very attentive and polite. Thank you for an enjoyable evening
