Wah Sun has totally become my go to Chinese restaurant - for delivery / carry out. Â Although it's a bit more expensive than a lot of other local places, I find the quality of food and portion sizes to be worth the price. Â The food is always ready when it says it is going to be, and often times the delivery is ahead of the quoted 45 minute time.
What I do not like about Wah Sun is their dine in menu is exceptionally limited compared to their carry out menu, and under no circumstances will they sub out menu items, regardless of whether or not you are willing to incur an upcharge. Â I have eaten here once and will likely never do so again.
So tl;dr - Great Chinese food delivery / carryout. Â Not so great dine in.
I have been living in Andersonville for a year now and have been struggling to find a "go to" Chinese place. On a very hung over new years day.. house of wah sun popped up on yelp.. I had been there tons of times as a kid but not in the past 5 years or so. I ordered 2 entrees, one chicken and one beef and they were both dynamite. i cannot wait to call up again to order more. prices were not unreasonable and the quantity of food was generous.
they have a big dinning room that is usually pretty empty. it is pretty standard dry chinese decor.. i would prefer pick up or delivery but if the dine in service is as good as the carry out, you cant miss. someone who i believe is the owner came out to say happy new years.
I will not be calling any other Chinese places for the next while
This is my favorite Chinese place...the sweet and sour chicken is so good..I crave it all the time...the waitresses are always nice.  The main one always remembers you.  The mix drinks are really good here also...the whiskey stone sour and piña colada...so good!!!
This place is usually empty..so you always have a table...no waiting...great for groups...big tables...
WORST food and WORST place for families!
I've gone a few times because it has free parking and cheap eats for their lunch special. Â The cheap eats and empty place should have clued me in (as you get what you pay for right?!?).
First time I went, I brought my 15 month old son who wasn't eating much Chinese. Â Now most restaurant employees are normally pretty nice to little ones but the waitress kept saying "Baby no, baby no" when he would drop one of his food bites on the floor. Â I told her that I would pick it up (like most parents I know) when we were done. Â She hovered a bit more with that but I thought nothing of it. Â Food was just as you would expect, loaded in clear, corn-starchy gravy, over salted and no other taste aside from that...again, cheap so didn't expect much.
Next went with parents from out of town. Â They liked it because you get a lot of food for 7 bucks, but food was tasteless. Â That's just how my parents see things now I guess. Â Cheap bargains. Â
I went again just recently. Â Now my son is 2.5. Â We went to the bathroom first, which seemed to annoy the waitress but we're potty training so that's what we do. Â When we got to the table, my son grabbed the salt shaker and started shaking salt on the table. Â The same waitress from before waited on us and said "baby no!". Â I told her not to worry, that I would handle it. Â I started to order with her and she was ignoring me and again focused on my son saying "No!". Â I again said, I'm his mother, I'll take care of it and again tried to order. Â This time she snatched the shaker from my son's hands and loudly said "No baby, no!". Â That was my last straw. Â
I asked to speak to the owner. Â She said she was an owner. Â So I asked her with her restaurant being SO empty, why she was treating customer's like that even though I told her I'd handle it. Â She said he shouldn't do that and I wasn't handling the situation. Â Again, this was SALT. Â I should have taken a pic to show how little was on the table. Â I told her I was trying to order with her and if she would have let me finish it would have been fine. Â I reminded her how little salt it was and how easy the clean up would be but we continued to argue. Â I said I would take my business elsewhere and she then snatched the menu from my hands at which point we picked up and left.
I waitressed for many years in college and know it can be hard cleaning up after little kids. Â However they have lost us as customer's and we will tell every family we know not to go there. Â I do see mostly elderly people there the times I went so maybe that's the crowd she caters to but if she really is an owner, she should be ashamed of herself!!
This has been my favorite Chinese restaurant since I was a little girl. The food is always delicious, although I believe they recently got new owners and the portions have definitely gotten smaller, don't know if it's related. It's never super crowded, I've never had to wait for a table in the 20+ years I've been going. The only complaint about the food is the egg rolls are kind of bland. Not bad, just a bit boring. Other than that the food is fantastic.
Review Source:Writing this before I slip into a food coma after consuming ham fried rice, an egg roll and some crispy chicken wings.
So full.
Now first off, I can't help but feel a little guilty because House of Wah Sun is NOT my go-to Chinese restaurant even though it's been around FOREVER. But I did want to give them a go before I continue on my quest to try everything on Shanghai Inn's menu.
The verdict? A-okay. My rice was a touch bland, but the wings and egg roll made up for it. That and drowning everything in sriracha. I also really enjoyed that they gave me almond cookies with my order.
I also ordered wonton soup, but it didn't make the cut in that I was too full to even open it up. Looking forward to giving that a shot for lunch tomorrow.
Good portion sizes and pricing, might have to actually stop by one day as they have a full bar.
House of Wah Sun makes the best egg rolls in all of existence. They have a lot of girth and are so crispy.
Other items are hit or miss: The sweet and sour chicken is good, and they pack the sauce and chicken separately for delivery, which I always appreciate. The szechwan beef is not very good, mostly salty and lacking in heat. The same goes for the combination fried rice, a tad salty. However, their Singapore noodles is one of the best versions I've had outside of Hong Kong - the curry really comes through. Ultimately, I still prefer the HK version though - far better.
The good thing about House of Wah Sun is that there are different sizes of entrees. So, when you order a variety of things like I always do (this is how Chinese people eat), you 1) don't spend $80 on Chinese food delivery, and 2) aren't eating Chinese food leftovers for a week.
They also packed me 4 almond cookies with my delivery order alongside fortune cookies, which I thought was a sweet touch. I'll definitely be calling them the next time I'm in the mood for some fat egg rolls.
OK, this is tardy, sorry, shoot me, eh?
Sorry to differ with you, John, Jules, Jennifer, Nikkie and Andie.......
Backstory:
I LOVE Chinese food. Erm, correction, I love GOOD Chinese food. I was immensely spoiled while attending UICC (now it's UIC), among my local friends & co-workers was a (cute) Chinese girl whose dad owned Chinese Lanterns on Argyle (her uncle was the cook). Â Way PAST heaven, out into the universe, the food was that good. NOT that we were special in any way (Grin).
That was then, this is now:
A few weeks ago, stopped in to order egg rolls, beef w/pea-pods, combo fried rice, barbecued pork. Yum! Â Rushed to my S.O.'s (she was starving, too) and gleefully anticipated a wondrous repast.
...talk about Murphy's Law..
Blow-by-blow is:
egg rolls - pretty good, could have used more time in the fryer.
combo fried rice - tasteless
beef/peapods - tasteless
barbecued pork - no sauce (?!), just pork. tasteless.
No, my sinuses weren't clogged up, I have EXcellent taste memory (that's problematic, as you can well imagine, and the impetus for these reviews)...
 The stuff simply tasted.. OLD. Decrepit.
I requested a refund (wouldn't you?)...
OK, so you'd think the manager (sorry, forgot his name) would say something like
"oh, gee, ok, bring it back, we'll give you new stuff or refund your $36+".
Nahhhhhhhhhhhh. Â More like "what? we've been here [insert bogus number here] years, noone has EVER complained..(read: what's YOUR problem, eh?)". Â Yah, no complaints never nohow noway? Â I sure don't believe That.
They're off of my list permanently.
They deservedly get Zero stars.
Perhaps we just got a bad batch of .. everything we ordered.. hmmm..
Will stick to the old-tried-and-true, deLICIOUS (IMNSHO) Chinese food available at a place on Pulaski and Foster, near the Jewel. Hint: no, it's not May, so don't expect to see a pretty Flower. Â They have multiple reviews here, methinks.
Bon Appetito.
House of Wah Sun is my go to Chinese restaurant. I used to live a stone's throw away (not literally, but close.) I would get takeout every so often and it was always solid.
Now that I'm a bit further away I have been ordering delivery and always get a deal. Between Grubhub deals, Livingsocial specials, etc. I can't remember if I've paid full price on delivery. They probably hate me (I tip well though.)
The delivery is very fast, and the guy who brings the food is super friendly. I know there are a ton of Chinese restaurant places around, but I just can't seem to let go of this place...
I have yet to make a 5 star review, this might be it. def 4-5 stars.
I went to this place with a good friend in highshcool ( a soccer mate whom I have since grown apart from) introduced me to this place. Â His mom knew how much I loved the Fun wide noodles. Â She always said something about those. I LOVED the chow fun wide fried noodle!
Years later I noticed the noodles were a bit greasy. Â Still the Soups and noodles are sick awesome superb. Â I love inexpensive places like this with superb food (better than fancy expensive places most often or always).
Very flavorful, very good, not a trace of MSG!
One of the things I really like about Wah Sun is the fact that main dishes come in two sizes, and honestly the small size is plenty of food for one serving. My favorites are the Kung Pao Chicken, Mongolian Beef, and Crab Rangoon appetizer. The sauces are very saucy and savory and only mildly greasy. The crab rangoons are adequately crabby and not too cream cheesy. When delivered, they include every sauce available, chop sticks, a dessert almond cookie and 2 fortune cookies, and they get it to you fast!
I will for sure be taming my chinese food cravings with the many options from Wah Sun again and again!
First of all, free parking which is rare in Chicago. They have a private lot :)
The food were fresh and delicious. I recommend the hot & sour soup. This is one of the best Chinese restaurants outside China Town.
The service was great. Everybody was courteous and we never had to look for our server, she always checks on us.
Great chinese delivery! Â I can't believe it took this long to find my place; I've been in the area for 2 years now and have never liked any of the 7 or 8 places I have tried. Â I'm pretty picky about my chinese food, and this place did not let me down. Â Speedy, friendly delivery. Â HOT food. Â Tasty and well seasoned. Â The meat actually resembled meat. Â The prices are very reasonable, and I made 3 meals out of my $17 order. Â Even the fortune cookies and almond cookies (bonus treat) were tasty. Â I definitely recommend you try.
Review Source:Probably my favorite Chinese restaurant in Chicago. Â I'm not really a big eater of Chinese food since I don't really like seafood or vegetables. Â However, my fallback foods when I have to eat Chinese, like orange chicken, sweet & sour chicken, crab rangoon are all incredibly delicious here. Â The service is excellent here, so definitely give it a try!
Review Source:The House of Wah Sun has been a North Center staple for almost 40 years. After passing this place 1,000 times over the past 40 years, I finally decided to check it out. Dare you ask, why have I never stopped into the house of Wah Sun? Answer: The idea of dining in a strip mall makes me break out in hives. The decor is tacky to say the least. It looks like the set of some bad, 70's Kung Fu movie. The good news is, the food is fantastic.
My travels have taken me all over the World. It seems like where ever I go, I always manage to find a dynamite Chinese restaurant. The problem is, I have never found a place like that in Chicago. I may have finally found my Go-To Chinese place. And what makes it even better, it's 4 blocks from my house.
The food is nothing short of mouth watering. I put Wah Sun to the ultimate test. I ordered my favorite dish. The General Tso's chicken. I was pleasantly surprised. Their version of this Chinese staple was amazing. It has just enough spice and featured huge chunks of lightly battered chicken. I loved every bite.
Here's the bottom line: You really can't judge a book by it's cover. From the outside, House of Wah Sun looks dingy and tacky, on the inside, they serve some amazing Grub. I wish I would have checked this place out earlier. It was pretty damn good!!
Let me just tell you that I love Chinese food as much as the next girl. Â My husband adores Chinese and loves it from almost anywhere.
That's how I know that this was bad. Â It was bland, boring and downright almost inedible. Â We got takeout on a rainy Sunday, hungover, in desperate need of good greasy food. Â We ordered Sesame Chicken, so bland we put it in a pan to add some extra ingredients to it to make it edible. Â The Beef and Broccoli - gross. Â The chicken fried rice was okay - definitely the highlight of a forgettable meal.
Won't be back.
I'll preface this review by saying we were extremely hungry before we walked in. Â But damn this food was good. Â
We ordered beef chow fun, kung pao chix, sesame chix, combo fried rice, beef chow fun, egg foo young and mongolian beef. Â
Everything was very flavorful, fresh and very tasty. Â
Good service helps that everyone speaks English very well. Â
House of Wah Sun is now on my short list of chinese places to frequent.
This is our favorite place to get Chinese in the city period. Amazing hot and sour soup and lick your fingers beef and broccoli.
It is is a place that I call when were both exhausted and need some great comfort food.
When the weather is nice we will take a walk and go to there for some amazing Hawaiian inspired drinks that come with cute little umbrellas.
The only complaint I have is that they are closed Mondays, other than that they simply Rock.
I keep going back. Â Usually the craving strikes me mid-afternoon and I telephone in the car on the way home from work. Â Every time my order is the same--sesame chicken and large vegetable fried rice. Â Both are the best versions that I have found. Â Usually I polish off the entire order of sesame chicken that night (oink oink) and save the fried rice as a foundation for three or four meals in the coming days, so my twenty bucks ends up going pretty far.
Last night, I managed to impose some moderation on my sesame chicken consumption...but I just ate the leftovers for breakfast. Â Call me unorthodox, but I can't think of a better way to start the day. Â Except maybe one.
This is by far one of my favorite restaruants. The crab ragoons are my absolute favorite in the entire city.
We order take out from here a lot, and it's always delivered in about half the time that they quote, and it's always piping hot and fresh. The staff is friendly, and when you dine in they're just the right amount of attentive, not too pushy.
I'm a BIG fan of Wah Sun.
This is the type of Chinese food I grew up on, and you probably did too. Â In my case, I have fond memories of coming here in the early-mid 80's for family night-outs. Â It doesn't hurt the nostalgia factor that the place is unchanged, right down to the zodiac placemats.
Is this the best Chinese food on the north side? Â Probably not, although my wife liked her sweet & sour chicken and she didn't have the nostalgia factor going.
So on to the food. Â Anything fried, particularly the chicken dishes, is good here. Â That would be the aforementioned sweet & sour chicken, the sesame chicken and my favorite the hong sue chicken (with plenty of vegetables, water chestnuts, big mushrooms). Â Chopsuey is very good here as well. Â
Oh and they have a free parking lot too, small but on this particular Saturday night there were still spots open (the other businesses in the tiny mall are weekday only).
So, overall I'd say Wah Sun is very solid if old school Chinese food.
I don't get it. How does this place have regulars? How has it been here so long?
The only part I understand is the kitchy, charming, old school Chinese divey restaurant thing it's got going on.
But the food was exactly what I expected. Watered down, not fresh, covered in thick clear goop, filled with water chestnuts and all the clear vegetables that lack taste.
The reason I never go to places like this is because I always suspect the food will taste as I just described. So sad. My dad liked it, though, and daddy paid.
I've been dying to go here for literally over a year. Far longer than really any Chinese restaurant is worth pining for (well, at least any Chinese restaurant in Chicago). From the outside, this place does not look like the epitome of upscale dining. It's kitty corner from a Jewel and the Golden Angel diner. But I'm a sucker for solid Chinese food, which is surprisingly difficult to find outside of Chinatown.
So I went in with expectations sky-high and I can say I was not disappointed. A few pot-stickers and egg rolls to start was an excellent choice. The egg rolls are short and stocky, plump full of tasty meat and veggies, while the pot stickers are surprisingly generous in proportion. I split a beef with green peppers and tomato with my lovely female companion and it was still too much that we had a box to take home. The entree was good, but a little on the bland side, enough to knock a star off here. Still, it's simply an excuse to go back, hopefully sooner than a year...
Major points for fountain soft-drinks rather than cans. This is literally a deal-maker for me and I don't care what you think.
This may not sound like the most ringing endorsement, but House of Wah Sun is definitely the best Chinese food on the north side.
I've dined in a few times, but generally I order for pick up or delivery. Everything is always well prepared and packaged appropriately. I've never experienced any spillage or leaking containers, missing items, and the food is always fresh and piping hot and they give you plenty of condiments (love that Chinese mustard!). To me, that is important, and something more restaurants should take note of.
The interior decor is textbook 70s Chinese restaurant, but I actually love the fact that this place hasn't been updated. It's delightfully retro, and not purposefully. They serve those tropical drinks like Scorpions and Zombies. Who doesn't love a boozy, rum-spiked cocktail with their Chinese food?
I've tried several menu items and it's all pretty good. My go-to items are usually egg rolls (crispy, lots of filling, and not at all greasy), chicken with broccoli or pea pods, Mongolian beef or garlic beef, sesame chicken (definitely one of the better versions out there), and any of the varieties of fried rice. Their fried rice sometimes is a touch on the greasy side, but that's not always a bad thing. It's just greasy enough without being gross. All of the vegetables they use are fresh and not overcooked. Again, it's these touches that separate the good Chinese restaurants from the mediocre or average ones.
As an added bonus, they have a small, but free, adjacent parking lot. And I've never encountered a wait for a table. Service is always very pleasant and efficient. They offer two sizes for carry out and delivery, but as I recall, only one size for dine in. The small sizes are generally plenty, especially if you're ordering a lot of food, as I typically do. Note that they are closed Mondays. I learned this the hard way.
I don't really have anything bad to say about HoWS, it may not knock your socks off, but it's solid Chinese food at reasonable prices for decent-sized portions. That's good enough for me.
3.5 stars.
This is another one of those places that has been around for a long time. I have driven past House of Wah Sun many times. Finally the other day when I was craving some Chinese food, we decided to stop and check out the lunch specials.
Right from the beginning there were things both Christopher and I liked. For one, they play Chinese themed music. I hate when you go into a Chinese restaurant and you end up having to listen to something like "The Girl From Ipanema" or Kenny G's greatest hits.
The music set the tone for a very nice lunch. The hot and sour soup was spicy enough but did benefit from the addition of a touch of soy sauce. The egg roll left us devided. I found it rather bland, but Christopher really liked his. Perhaps it is because to him, egg rolls are merely vehicles for the consumption of hot mustard.
I had the Mongloian Beef. It was tasty and there was a nice balance between the onions and the beef. Some places drown their beef in onions. This place got it right..
Christopher had the Sezchuan Chicken and really enjoyed it. I tasted it and I agree. There was a lot of chicken and a nice amount of veggies and it was not drowning in sauce.
The service was good and the lunch special prices were not bad. House of Wah Sun and I won't be strangers any longer.
Kevin A. is obviously alone in his evaluation of Wah Sun. First, if you don't like MSG in your food, you can request to have it without.
Anyhow, I just wanted to write an update to reiterate how great the food and service are whether you are dining in or ordering for delivery. The owner always asks how my son is, and I am remembered whether dining in or getting delivery.
The food is excellent - quality is the best way to describe it. The chicken is all white meat, the veggies are fresh and plentiful, and they definitely don't skimp on anything. Egg Rolls are fantastic as well, crunchy, well constructed, and most importantly, delicious. If you want a great neighborhood Chinese restaurant, Wah Sun is your place!
Sunday night we were all a little spent from the day's activities so we decided to order some food in. Plenty is closed on Sundays so we had to find a chinese alternative. My roommate suggested House of Wah Sun.
We ordered the Empress Chicken, some Wonton Soup, potstickers, and also a hot and sour soup. The total came to only $18.00!! And it was GOOD!
They told us it'd be about 45 minutes, but it only took about 30 and we live in Ravenswood. Not too shabby. The food was correct, hot ,and Tasty as hell. I highly recommend the potstickers, and the Empress Chicken was damn good too.
RULE #145231: DO NOT EAT AT CHINESE RESTAURANTS THAT SERVE MAI TAIS
I have a new rule. Â No eating at Chinese restaurants that serve tropical drinks like mai tais, pina coladas, zombies, etc. Â This along with blood-red naughahyde booths are very bad omens that you're going to have an unpleasant meal. Â
My first gripe with this place was the obscene amounts of MSG that they put in their food. Â My mouth was as dry as the Kalahari shortly after my meal and I must have downed 4 glasses of water in a futile attempt to quench my thirst. Â
Other low points were the greasy pot-stickers and the black bean chicken in a gloppy, cornstarch laden sauce. Â ***shudders*** Â The only thing that was passable was the Mongolian beef, but again it was loaded with MSG.
Upon reflection I should have noticed that there were none of my people here, and after my meal it was obvious why.
3 1/2 stars. Â The service is attentive without being pushy. Â They were really nice and helpful.
I really enjoyed the tofu vegetable soup, and the egg rolls were tasty as well. Â We got the mooshoo vegetables (I've also had the mooshoo chicken) and the szechwan broccoli.
On the downside, the entrees were not as piping hot as I would have expected as they weren't terribly busy. Â It is a little pricey, in my mind, for Chinese food but the food is good. Â Request no MSG if you don't want it as some dishes still contain it if not asked for without.
There is no reason why I won't go back. Â And they delivery quickly as well.
To the wonderfully sweet and patient waitress who waited on me and my dick of a date, apologies. Sincere apologies. Part of my experience here will always be tainted by my less than glorious company. Note to self, when you know a guy's a douchebag, simply refrain from spending time with him!
Ok so on to what this review is REALLY based on: the food! Um it was so so. I am really not a huge Chinese food fan but on occasion, when I am on a date and the guy really has no regard for what I like or dislike, I have to roll with it. So, we ordered the sweet n' sour shrimp and the schezuan (sp?) shrimp. Both were adequately tasty but definitely far from the best Chinese I've had.
On the upside, they did make a killer Mai Tai and their house glasses of wine are only $3.25. Oh and our waitress was a sweetheart. Again, apologies.
Probably won't come here ever again but had an OK experience (with the food at least) when i was there.
There are way too many hit or miss and overall bad Chinese restaurants in Chicago. This place is NOT one of them. I enjoyed my first meal here and I hope to return sooner rather than later.
We had a party of five so not only did I enjoy my Cashew Chicken but I had the opportunity to sample four other entrees. Everything was very tasty. The Crab Rangoons tasted slightly off. They weren't bad by any means but I was rather underwhelmed by them.
Our server was very good. She was very attentive but did not overwhelm us. When we did need something, she was always close by. The place has been around a while and it is showing it's age. it is kept up well though. The rear part of the dining room looked somewhat disheveled though.
I am anxious to try more stuff here!
My newly-vegetarian boyfriend loves anything cheeky, cheesy and topped with a dollop of campy self-conscious kitsch. Veggie Eggrolls are a mere bonus: It is the Drinks that must be seen to be believed!
Y'know the gigantic 7-Eleven XXX-Large Big Gulp cups?
No?
Okay, Y'know the gargantuan barrels you see horses eating from?
Right.
That is the approximate size of the 'Blue Zombie' and yes, you must see to believe the tiki-head stein-sized mugs your drink will arrive in- complete with little paper umbrellas, maraschino cherries, orange and pineapple slices and maybe even the Good Witch of the North ready to grant three wishes- but by the time I was done, I couldn't have remembered my own name let alone whatever else we may have ordered...
Update: MUST amend my review. The food is as good as the drinks! Came home from work today too wiped out to even attempt cooking. So we called the House for take-out. Literally: 23 minutes (yes, we timed it) after we hung up the phone the delivery-man was ringing our doorbell and the dining room table was groaning under the weight of all the food!
May I recommend the gigantic veggie egg rolls, the crab rangoon, the Hawaii pineapple fried rice, tasty little almond cookies and lastly: I want to marry the lemon chicken- My boyfriend is jealous, but he's not Lemon Chicken: crispy breaded chicken stuffed with ham and served with enough zesty lemon sauce to swim in! Ahhhhh..... Â Lemon chicken, we will be so happy together!
This is a nice little Chinese restaurant tucked away in North Center. The lunch specials are excellent, and I could easily destroy a few plates of the pork fried rice. The egg rolls are great, and this is one of the few places I've been to that offers a choice of egg roll (vegetarian, pork, seafood). At first, I was hoping that it would be a buffet, but after I saw the portion sizes, I changed my mind! They give you a LOT of food here.
The big disappointment was a lack of wonton soup on the lunch menu. The egg drop soup is very good, but wonton is my favorite.
It's the American Chinese Restaurant from your childhood. Â And I have to say that it nudges Orange Garden out of my list for the top spot in "American Chinese" cuisine.
Where to begin here? Â Perhaps in the order that you'll eat.
First, they've got "tropical drinks". Â They serve them out of flamboyant plastic glasses shaped like a tiki god or pineapple. Â Classic.
Their "appetizers" are top notch. Â Egg rolls? Â AWESOME. Â Crunchy, peanut buttery, sweet and filled with actually identifiable meat and vegetable products. Â Yum. Â Pot stickers? Â Similarly awesome. Â We had them steamed, they're probably just as good fried. Â Soup? Â Hot & sour is superb.
Entrees are equally good. Â Mongolian beef, chow fun, and vegetables all came out nice, and in copious quantities. Â However, despite our hunch we had ordered too much food, none of us could stop eating! Â It was great stuff.
All in all, House of Wah Sun reminds me of my childhood, and the food's just as good as it is in my memory. Â Yeah, you can't get this stuff in China.... you can only get it here. Â It's American Chinese food. Â Love it, live it!
There are not a lot of Chinese places in my neighborhood compared to the Mountain of Thai places and I enjoy House of Wah Sun.
A pretty legnthy menu and options  await and it's low frills enough to go there causually but it's not gross and campy. Perfect mix.
I like their Walnut Chicken.
So this is the neighborhood I grew up in. And in this neighborhood there are two Chinese restaurants. House of Wah Sun and Orange Garden. If you also grew up in this hood you have allegiance to one or the other.
So I'm dating the bf (also from the same hood) for about 6 months and we feel like Chinese, I'll all excited because I haven't been the House for a while and my mouth is watering for the appetizer tray.
In my horror he suggests Orange Garden!! Noooooo! Not Orange Garden!
I don't know what to do.
I go to Orange Garden and it just reiterates my love of House of Wah Sun.
Fast forward 4 years the same bf wants Chinese delivered.
Ha ha, here's my chance. Orange does not deliver!
We order from the House. Fast delivery. I don't think it took 25 minutes.
And I am slowly converting the bf.
After losing the fabulous Wing Lee to thai-fusion yuppiedom, we tried out Wah Sun for delivery. Â Their eggrolls are so good, it's almost easy to overlook the price.
So far everything we've ordered has been top-notch, although it's a bit on the pricey side - expect to drop $30 or so for a dinner with variety. Â
I vaguely remember eating in their dining room many years ago and thinking "this place will be here forever." Â So far I'm right!
