    Love at first bite! For years I have driven past this small take-out without a second glance. Shame on me! I called and placed an order for pick up and the very articulate man on the other end of the phone line told me that the order would be ready in 15-20 minutes. Although this was an off eating hour, 3 pm, I knew that there were others eating as well because he had put me on hold while taking another phone order. Yes, this place definitely has customers, always a good sign. I ordered a few small items off of the online menu. When I arrived exactly 15 minutes later everything was packaged in a nice brown paper bag with a printed packing slip stapled at the top. Wow, I guess even the small mom & pop shops these days are tech savvy! The food was STEAMING HOT! Obviously freshly cooked and not just reheated. Upon arriving home I scooped out the white rice and was astonished that it was so soft and tender! The combo fried rice was the same softness, not too oily, with plenty of baby shrimp, pork & veggies to go around. The beef kow was heavenly! The meat was surprisingly tender with veggies that weren't overcooked, nice and green instead of wilty looking. And the taste of everything else was fresh-tasting & without too much salt. Overall, my entire family gave them 100% thumbs up! I think I'm in heaven! I must come back and try more dishes. Glad to have found this tiny but delish Chinese take-out in Naperville!

    We had one of our council meetings for Chicago Jedi at my home. We put in a nice sizable order and it arrived more than on time. We were very pleased with the speed of delivery. The four of us, plus my son, sat down and ate a wonderful meal that was delivered to my home. The food was hot. The order was correct. And the size of the portions were fantastic. I happen to like Chinese a great deal. And in my opinion this was a great place to buy dinner. Chicago Jedi approves ! Thanks Yen Ching ~ May the Force Be with You ~

    Our favorite Chinese place in the area. Amazing food, quick service, reasonably priced and you can eat for days off of a portion. Takes about 15-20 for pickup.

    Just barely ok. Flavors were off, think it had to do with old oil used? Definitely a big portion, but not good. Got general tso chicken and pan fried noodles.

    Really fast and helpful service. The hot and sour soup is always really good. The owners are great people and my orders are always ready when I get there. A+

    Their food is always done quickly and is fresh. The chicken isn't chewy like some places and the food isn't overly salty. I recommend the chicken fried rice and the generals chicken!

    I ordered the chicken fried rice which had PLENTY of perfectly cooked chicken, but unfortunately that's all it had along with some egg. I was hoping to see some sprouts, scallions and maybe some chopped onions. What I was happy to NOT see were peas and carrots. I also got the General Tso's chicken which was good as well but a little more on the sweet side than spicy. The service I had was AMAZING! The man who took my order was incredibly sweet and even allowed my sister to get a substitution with her order. The price was incredibly reasonable, the portions were large and it only took 10 minutes (we went at 6:30pm on a Tuesday). Additionally, the restaurant was INCREDIBLY clean. Overall, the food was good, not the best I have ever had, but not the worst. It was a bit of a drive from where I live to go here and I do have closer Chinese food places, but I will definitely come back here again.

    Solid chinese takeout/delivery. Real good general tso chicken... I would skip the crab rangoons though. Their small portions are HUGE, don't even wanna know what their large portions are like! Delivery order has always come at a decent time- everything packaged well and the order is always correct :) I hope they get their online ordering system up and running soon!

    Okay, so I fashion myself a Chinese Food aficionado. I've eaten from Taiwan around the world to Tokyo and everywhere in between. I think Chinese food is subjective. It's as regional as BBQ. Still, what's good is good. For Chicagoland, I'd set Chi-Tung as our measuring stick (10/10). Given that, I'd grade Yen Ching a 6/10. This first visit I had General Tso's and sweet and sour chicken with a side of shrimp fried rice. The orange chicken is slightly above average where the general Tso's (slightly mushy breading, under sauced and over-salted) underwhelmed. The fried rice, arguably the easiest of dishes to master, was pedestrian at best. Given the ratings from frequenters, I may try some other dishes and change my rating.

    My grandma ordered mapo tofu for my brother and it came out pink!! Wth i was so in shock. They must have used a very artifical spice or something. I thought this place would be more professional. I ordered brocolli and tofu myself and it was fine but not the mapo tofu. It was very scary looking at how pink the tofu was.

    You know how you have that favorite dish at your local spot and you don't go often enough to expand your choices... Well that keeps happening here. I just love their sweet and sour shrimp lunch special. I think it takes me back to Cincinnati in '79 when I first experienced fine Chinese food at Eah Mei's on Fountain Square. Yen Ching's shrimp takes me back to those days, when we could order a Volcano drink (at 18) and enjoy some fine dining. Over the years here I have explored other dishes but. their shrimp is magical. It is a heavy breading, but put it on top of the fried rice and drizzle a small portion of the sauce on top, as they give it to you on the side and prepare yourself for a nap... Especially if you polish of the egg roll, or rangoon if you prefer. I'm a little bummed they took the soup as an option off the table but the special still comes with a can of pop, it's better than an increase. If they'd offer brown rice I'd give them five stars. Such nice people! Great value!

    Yen Ching has always been a good take out/delivery spot for me. I really enjoy their Chicken Fried Rice and their chicken with broccoli is pretty good. Their delivery has always been the best and arrives fast with the food still warm.

    No, just no. The combination fried rice tasted like it had been cooked days before and reheated. The rice itself was bland and the meats were extremely dry. The broccoli beef tasted like nothing. Literally, nothing. It had absolutely no flavor. I could not finish my meal and ended up reheating leftovers from the night before. Please look elsewhere when looking for a good chinese take-out place because you won't find it here.

    Driven past here many times and was itching to see if it was any good. It's located in a strip center in a residential area, just like one of my favorite Chinese take-outs, New Wok. Finally got my chance and here's what I thought: Egg Drop Soup: eggs were stirred well and not clumpy. That's a good sign. But the soup was fairly tasteless overall. It was like it was thinned out with hot water instead of chicken broth. We added our own chives and sesame oil to it, but it was still no good. Couldn't resuscitate it. Chicken Egg Foo Yung: good gravy, just the right amount of thickness. The patties were decent as well. Beef Fried Rice: Kinda lite in color which worried me some, but it was allright. The beef was not as tender as I would have liked, and it could have benefitted with a green onion or two and some bean sprouts and a scrambled egg. But it was OK. Probably the best of all our choices. Beef Kow: we got this on the strength of it being mentioned on the menu as one of their specialties. It was bad. It had a vinegar flavor in the sauce which was very weird and not good. Again, the beef was not as tender as expected. But the vinegar really ruined it. It had to be a mistake by the cook. Probably grabbed the wrong bottle or something. The menu is larger than the normal take out place. It was prepared pretty quick and on time.

    This is our goto Chinese takeout. it's about as good as Chinese takeout as one can get. I don't think I've ever experienced any of the negative experiences that other reviewers mentioned but maybe my taste buds are just not as refined...

    Solid take out. Not the most authentic, but there's few places in Naperville that put out the real deal. He use to have a restaurant off Ogden where all the car dealerships are, that might have been in '89-early 90's. My mom flipped when she discovered he reopened right down the street. The service is very friendly and they will always get your order right. For STARTERS we've had their egg rolls, crab rangoon, pot stickers, and beef teriyaki. The egg rolls are so-so, the crab rangoon is probably my favorite in Naperville (their big crispy triangles), the pot stickers usually have too much covering but the pork filling is good. For CHICKEN we've tried their curry, sesame, general tso's, and orange. All or just OK. Aside from the curry, they usually have a heavy sauce that gets gelatinous rather quickly. Their Szechuan, Kung Pao, Mongolian, and Moo Shu preparations are all pretty good. You can choose the meat. Lo Mein is just OK and the fried rice is only OK. One of their specialties is Sha Cha Shrimp and Scallops, that's a damn good dish. Yen Cheng is a good take out spot, much better than the common "cookie cutter" crap that is littered around the suburbs.

    The authentic Cantonese style food. Service with a smile. Their noodles are homemade... Fresh veggies for all vegetarians. As Asian community leader...I would strongly recommend that try it.. You will get hook...Northern Chinese food are well known here too. Chinese Christian churches would cater for Food , fun times also other seasonal recreation food feast.. Small kitchen does not mean that they don't have the best cook on location. I believe the owner came from Hong Kong. Our Martin family are repeated customer... Come & taste for the food is plentiful. Too bad this is only a take out place. Senior are welcome.

    My two favorite things here are the fried rice and egg rolls. They are tasty and the portions are good. I also like the fact that they deliver (and they're quite fast at it!), which is always great whenever I don't want to leave the house. I'm really looking forward to ordering from here next time I go back to Naperville.

    Excellent food and service. Our new favorite since our old favorite has been bought and sold too many times.

    This is probably one of the best Chinese takeout places in the Naperville area. Nestled right in the corner mini-strip at 87th and Modaff, it's typically my go-to spot for good Chinese, especially during historic snowfalls and temperature drops! My personal favorites are their General Tso's Chicken, Sesame Chicken, and Mongolian Beef - highly recommended!

Chinese Cuisine

The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.

Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.

There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.
