Best pork knuckles I ever had and I ate a lot of them! The fish dish is sooooo flavorful! Duck blood is a rare find! Such an amazing place!! Also friendly and very caring service!
My wife and I had our wedding rehearsal dinner here and the staff was extremely accommodating and the food was amazing! They also have amazing prices when it comes to portion size. We love coming here and the food is always top tier.
My favorite Chinese restaurant in Dallas, dine-in and pickup for over ten times. Each time after a business travel, I would like to order something from here. Almost everything on the menu is great, though they are not good at cook seafoods.
Very authentic Sichuan hot pot. Comes with options for different flavors including spicy and non-spicy soup base and all you can eat pricing makes it very economical. Ideal for large groups that want to socialize over an authentic Chinese meal, or just for two.
Excellent Food. Very friendly and nice Service! The prices were very good and The sweet and Sour Chicken Used White meat instead of dark which is very delicious. The sauce was very delicious also. The Shrimp Fried Rice was really good too. Probably best i have ever had! Its close to cicis pizza.
Very tasty and fresh food. Took my American friend there . They like spicy and hot authentic Sichuan food too although it’s their first time. Would like to try their different dishes. And there are so many options.
Chen’s is hands down the best Sichuan restaurant in DFW! It’s my family’s go to for Chinese comfort food. We have been to several other places, but we have never left disappointed with anything we’ve ordered at Chen’s. Highly recommend their dongpo pork, spicy pork ribs, salted egg with corn and shrimp, sichuan jelly, green onion pancakes, beef noodle soup, etc.
Authentic Sichuan restaurant run by Sichuan people. All the dishes are excellent and not the rubbish served by Panda Express. This, in a nutshell is what my wife says and she has the bona fides to say so since she's Chengdu born and raised. I gave the food and service 5-stars but took a little off for the atmosphere because it can sometimes get a little grungy inside. But that actually just adds to the authenticity of the place since lots of delicious restaurants in China--and Asia in general--are like that. We visit quite often, whenever we can't visit the real thing in Chengu, China.
