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.

This place is absolutely delicious. I haven't tried many of their dishes but it would appear the how one's sesame chicken comes out, would be a good indicator. I've had places in Seattle literally toss it in ketchup, places in Florida serve god knows what meat, and now Uncle Chen's - with actual chicken and the perfect amount of sweetness in the sauce. Their lunch special is AMAZING. Each person can easily have two meals from it. It's such a steal and we love that it's offered even on the weekends. The portions of other meals are huge as well - and it reheats like Chinese should, a total dream. It's definitely family run and the interior is just what you'd expect from a non-chain restaurant. They have a foosball table that entertains my toddler while we wait for our food to-go (we sometimes purposely walk-in to order so he can play it), tables by the windows and then old Taco Bell-style booths along the wall. They aren't always the friendliest, but I think it's just the culture and as a southern gal myself, perhaps I'm TOO polite and read into it. It doesn't make me uncomfortable or make me not wish to patronize the place though. PS - they carry both Coke AND Pepsi products which is a silly thing to care about but I LOVE having the option as I will avoid places with Pepsi like the plague (lol)

Love, love love this place! I've been getting my Chinese food fix from here for years! Great food for a good price. I've been going to Uncle Chen's since I was a little girl, I would ride my bike there.

Best Chinese food in all of NW Indiana. Awesome Orange Beef or Chicken. I'd also recommend the Chicken with Broccoli. And Elaine the boss lady is always accommodating and nice.

I'm on the same page as Christian K... Your socks will not be knocked off , but I ate my entire meal, was full and satisfied my msg cravings. I ate the garlic chicken it was.... Good Service was prompt at a decent price for lunch

This is definitely my favorite Chinese place in Indiana, my husband and I both really like it. Their chicken in garlic sauce and Szechuan chicken are my favorites, while my husband really likes their General Tsos chicken.

They do tofu lo mein for me here and add extra vegetables. It is the best I have ever had. The tofu is perfectly cooked and not sopping in oil. Add some plain fried rice and I'm content for two days. Husband will spend the night at the p's house if he gets Uncle Chen's for lunch the next day. He loves the chicken lo mein combo. Yes, I bribe him with food and he's okay with it. It's still hot when we get back to the p's house in CP - or even back to Zville. We grabbed some at 10:30 on Saturday morning, drove back to Zville, and ate it while watching IU choke during the Big Ten Tourney without reheating. Awesome.

Best Chinese around the area. Egg rolls are great. I grew up around there and I struggle to find better anywhere else.

Wife & I split the Happy Family meal, rice and noodles was the worst tasting piece of shit meal. Grade D cuts of meat, salty sauce and way undercooked vegetables. We couldn't choke down more than a few bites. Told lady at front, she got mad at us. Left and went to Subway. You should be ashamed to call this Chinese food. Step it up Chen or please go out of business.

Once again, another typical Chinese joint in the Region. When I walked in, I did have a bit more hope for this place as you can see from the counter the kitchen area with several big woks and the family manning the operations. It reminded me a lot of Brandy Ho's in San Francisco. However the food wasn't anything better than you'll get at most of the Chinese places around the local area. The Crab Rangoon, while better than most of what we've found in the area, had the look and the texture of something that was bought from the bulk frozen food section at Costco's. The Kung Pao Chicken had a very smoky flavor and the pieces of chicken in the dish were smaller than the peanuts in the dish - come on. We also had ordered the Sweet & Sour Chicken. The sauce was in a small container and tasted like it came in bulk and the breaded chicken pieces while a bit bigger than the pieces that were in my Kung Pao dish had more breading on them then the chicken itself. I ended up pealing off the breading and mixing the chicken into the remains of my Kung Pao dish.

I've eaten at alot of chinese restos. Uncle's has great food. Cheap prices. Especially the lunch special. You can't beat it. I have yet to find another place that has better tso. The crab rangoon is a little skimpy but for 2.99 its worth it. Must Eat!!!!!!!!

Average, through and through. Not much to say.

About twice a month my Hubby and me go and get take out from here. They always give us huge portions and are nice quick and friendly! family run and has the kids help out. I would recommend having it take home dinning there might give a better feel for the food. Cheap and good.
(4)Robert S.
I'm very picky. Lots of places like this serve crappy meats with lots of celery smothered in sauce. Here I got nice slices of quality white chicken meat with a spicy sauce. Yummy. Chinese owned - kids were doing homework in the dining area. Very plain dining area. Reasonable prices. Would recommend.

Good choice for take-out. Fair prices, nice family owned feel. Nothing spectacular, but not bad either.

I'm a happy customer of Uncle Chens's. Good food, cheap and it's ready pretty quick too. Here's the skinny: Take-out OR Dine-in. Picture menu's are awesome. Good food & portions are just the right size. Soup or Pop... not both. Here's the fat: It's a small place, a few booths and a large table in front. The large table is kinda useless though, since it's normally covered in magazines or newspapers. Take-out is a snap, just call it in and it's usually ready in about 10 minutes. There are big picture menu's on the wall and above the register. The wall menu features the specials. Most of the time, WYSIWYG "What You See Is What You Get". The food is pretty good, typical Chinese take-out. I've never been OVERLY impressed but, their lunch specials can't be beat as far as pricing and portion size go. Beef and Broccoli or Chicken and Mushroom are my two staple lunch specials, pretty tasty if you ask me. The meats and veggies are cooked well and the fried rice they make is A-OK too. With the lunch specials you get Soup OR Pop... that's the only thing I'm not a fan of. It'd be great if they just wrap it all up into one. It's not like it REALLY matters since I get the pop added on too. Thing is if both were included and the price was to go up say... $1 it'd feel like a better deal than to get one or the other for an EXTRA charge. Either way, Uncle Chen's is pretty good, the staff is nice and the food is tasty. SYOY

This place is amazing. My favorite food is chinese and i refuse to eat anywhere else! Uncle Chen will ruin every chinese food restaurant in northwest indiana for you! Also, the prices couldnt be better and the service couldnt be faster. They have my order memorized and they go above and beyond to satisfy your needs.

Worst Chinese food ever!!! How do you mess up chicken fried rice? Well they did. The chicken was old, nasty, and chewey. The owners were too busy in their own conversation rather than to take care of customers. I wish I could give 0 stars
