1st Chop Suey

Ignorant Chinese chick on phone why spend money with ignorant businesses it shows how the owner feels about you if he let’s people like that represent his business

Been Going & Ordering Here A Long Time. Good Food, Tasty As Well. Wish They Weren’t So Stingy With The Sweet & Sour Sauce, But Persistence Is Key When Ordering In Or Out. They Use The Classic Small Packets Of Sweet & Sour Unlike The Homemade Watered Down Orange Whatever.
Awesome Combo Specials
Moderately Priced
$$ To $$$
Fast Delivery
Relatively Small Inside Dining
Mongolian Beef-​Spicey Is My Favorite With Beef Fried Rice. Be Sure To Ask For Little Onions.
Awesome Crab Rangoon

Been ordering there for years! I am spoiled and don’t care for any other Chinese from anywhere else! Great food, good service, and gigantic portions! Awesome.

Food taste really weird
Worst fried rice ive had
Never coming here again
I had the orange chicken
The lady took like 10 minutes to take my order
Rice tasted really nasty i threw it away
I was going to return it but felt bad about going back and telling them
Will never come here again
I usually go to new china tea
ITS WAY BETTER
I was trying something new with this place
Just sticking to my usual Chinese spot

Ordered from here for the first time 2 days ago.
VERY generous portions, great price, great tasting food. Delivery took no time at all. Very pleased and will most definitely order again soon.

No food especially Chinese take out with questionable OSHA practices is worth being ignored while standing 3 inches away from the woman at the register who was on the phone telling the person on the other end his/​her total every time he/​she added something to the order. After ten minutes a different woman took my order. However, the woman on the phone was still casually asking the customer if he/​she wanted a free egg roll. She held up the only phone line so my payment couldn’t be processed. It was ridiculous. Get another phone line, the customer standing in front of you takes precedence over the nutcase on the phone, and lastly give Joy Lee noodles back its chairs.

The food was ok for a Chinese restaurant. I got general sous chicken, my go to dish. The rice was good but the chicken was literally tysons frozen chicken! Ugh oh well, I would go back in a pinch but wouldn’t if I had another option.

HORRIBLE SERVICE!!! I ordered a large shrimp fried chicken and they brought me something completely different. I called back to tell them they delivered the wrong thing and said they would deliver the right item, but would still charge me. I asked for manager and he started yelling at me on the phone! What manager does that?!? NEVER GO HERE unless you want the wrong food and to get yelled at by the manger! Horrible management!

Wanted some quick food close to my job.
I read the other reviews here, so I gave it a try. Ordered chicken fried rice, Singapore style noodles and Mongolian beef. Only the fried rice was acceptable. The Singapore noodles were bland, they gave me half an onion that was nearly raw. The noodles were very soggy and oily. The Mongolian beef was made from cuts of meat that seemed to be days old. They smelled terrible. Again, there was too much onion. And it was undercooked.
I don’t know what the other reviewers are thinking. This is terrible Chinese.
Don’t order from here.

I’m not a Chinese food fanatic for I only order the fried rice, but it’s delicious. I’ve order from this establishment for years and never experienced a problem. The staff is friendly and service quick.

Order the king pao chicken lunch special and oh my, the portions are HUGE! You could easily feed 2 adults with one order. My friend got the orange chicken and hers was much better in my opinion. The food was overall good but you can really taste the msg, but you gotta expect that when you are paying $ 6 for THAT MUCH FOOD!
If you are in the mood for chop suey on the cheap, it’s not a bad option.

I only come here for their chicken noodle soup. OMG!!! It is really good. Best chicken noodle soup I ever had. One day I was near & so I stopped in & got their soup. Wow! It’s outta this world. I pretty much stop there everyday after work just to get it. & it’s only $ 3.57. Can’t beat that. Highly recommend if your a soup person like me.

Excellent dishes, they give you a good amount too. I’m vegetarian and they have options for me here. Their delivery is super fast!

At 1^st Chop Suey I’ve never had them get an order wrong. In 20 years this has been the place we use at least a couple times a month. They also now take credit cards (for a $.30 service fee).
They don’t have a huge selection menu like some newer places but everything they do here is spot on. Even the lunch specials are great and a good value.
We love their egg foo young quite a bit. Usually we get ham but the shrimp or combo is good too. Cooked fast and not burnt with lots of gravy makes it a winner. The pan fried noodles are excellent and always made to order, not left limp and soggy in a bin. And the egg drop soup is one of my favorites.
There are a couple things I don’t care for here like Crab Rangoon (too oily) or Orange Chicken (thick gelatinous sauce with heavy dark spicy peppers) but there are so many good offerings who can pass it up?
The family that runs the place is great and even though a terrible traffic accident on I55 a few years ago hit the family hard by losing a few family members on their way home from work, they continued smiling and serving up their huge portions. I may occasionally visit other local sit-​down table service Asian restaurants but this is my take out choice by far.

My favorite Asian food in the area, whether we stop in or get delivery. I always get shrimp fried rice and hot orange chicken which isn’t really any spicier than the mild so I’m not sure if there is a difference. Love the broccoli that comes with it too taste good in the sauce!

It’s not completely horrible because if its a Monday and we really really want Chinese we will go here. More than once they have forgotten to put sauces in the bag (sweet & sour and soy) how does that happen?
Also dislike what thickening agent they use for their gravy. It’s awful to reheat. The portions are big so reheating is usually happening for us.

Best in the Midway area. Have been eating here for over three years. If you do not want to drive to China town, or drive at all. Have them bring you a great meal.
Egg rolls are great, shrimp fried rice is great. They have lunch meals, that are giant. Makes into lunch and dinner for me. They are the fastest in the city. And really a nice family, and have always taken great care of my dinning needs.

Good food, and always FAST delivery… The best around.

I have never been but have recently moved to the area. and found this website with this horrifying information!

I eat here all the time and have never been disappointed. love their combination chow mein, ham fried rice, and chicken and broccoli. huge portions. best place in the area hands down
