Chinese Gourmet

Same wonderful service every time we go by a nice young woman. We love the egg rolls, happy family, sweet and sour chicken, chicken fried rice. The food was so delicious. My hubby and I live right around the corner. We love this place.

We were very disappointed with this restaurant. It was our first and last visit. Nice interior. Quick service. The food was simply not very good. My food was bland...with a generic brown sauce, and I actually thought my wife's food tasted poor (she didn't care for it either). Prices were a little higher than what we typically pay...which is fine if the food is something you come back for...but not for Chinese Gourmet. I'm sure South Elgin has better Chinese food...

First time trying this place even though I've been in the area for the past 5 years. I read all the other reviews first before calling and figured why not. I had a craving for chinese food for some reason. Didn't bother looking at a menu, I already knew I wanted orange chicken, shrimp fried rice, and crab ragoons. Came out to be about 25 bucks. Wasn't expecting it to be that much but  the portions were pretty big so I'm fine with that. When I went in to pick it up, there was 1 couple in there. Kind of felt bad it was so dead. This was a Thursday night if I remember correctly.

As for the food, the ragoons were pretty good. Rice was pretty good. Had a lot of those mini shrimps in it which is great. And the orange chicken was alright. It kind of had a little bit too much sauce for my liking. Though when I called, they asked if I wanted is spicy or not so I wonder what the spicy one would have tasted like. Place is a-ok, didn't blow my mind at all. Average is about right. Nothing wrong with average
