I really like this place! I went in for lunch and had a good experience. The staff was really friendly and tentative. Food was tasty, and the chicken was good quality! I added broccoli to my entree for no additional cost which was really nice. Their egg drop soup is delicious! It had small bits of tofu in it too. The plain fried rice really was pretty plain, but tasted fine. Would’ve liked more veggies. Big portion sizes! I’ll definitely be back

This is a nice Chinese food restaurant. We waited for a little long time until the dishes served. It’s near Indiana dunes national park. Decent price for lunch specials. I am glad I additionally ordered one dish to take to the plane.

As American Chinese as it can get – not authentic unfortunately. The menu is more Asian than Chinese with all the Asian cuisines offered so mastery of Chinese cooking in their dishes is not to be expected.

Chinese restaurant but Menu also has Thai food, I ordered the Pad Thai which is a very common and popular Thai dish. It was the absolute worst Pad thai I’ve ever had. Looks like the poured a jar of red sweet and sour sauce and served it on a plate. The most horrible!!

My parents have been here before and my mom has been telling me I need to try it out. We just finished dinner and I have to say this place is amazing! I live in Chicago now and love all kinds of Asian cuisines. I’ve been to many restaurants in the city and I cannot think of any that come close to this restaurant. The variety here is also very impressive. Anything from Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai, Korean, and more! And all the dishes are exceptionally good! If I could give it more than 5 stars I definitely would!

Done going to this Tao Chen’s. We frequented this restaurant for many years. But now the chicken fried rice had small square chunks of fry chicken, don’t see any egg in it and very little onion. The previous owners had excellent food. Now it is mediocre.

We were on our way to Indiana dunes and looked for place to have lunch. They had good reviews so we dropped by. It’s a quite and nice place to have lunch. The food was yummy, everyone enjoyed it. The only problem was the wait time for the food to arrive was Soo much. And when the food was there it was sooo good. Maybe next time we will order before we reach there .

The food here is always amazing! The staff is very friendly and I love coming here. The portions are huge and 2 people can split 1 entrée easily. The food tastes very fresh and the hot tea is delicious! Orange chicken and crab Rangoons are the best!

The place was super busy when we arrived. We were seated straight away. The atmosphere is beautifully calming and serene, huge plus there!!! We were served quickly but our food did take quite a while to arrive. It is a mix of Chinese cuisine and Vietnamese cuisine. Everything was separated on the menu but we hadn’t tried a number of the dishes before, seemed very authentic. The food came fresh and quite warm, the servings sizes were very large. We left with at least a full portion for lunch tomorrow.
