Order a combo with fried rice chicken balls egg roll honey garlic ribs. Whole meal was dry and tasteless and cold one of the worst chinese foods I have eaten

We order here often. The food is great but if you are ordering for a pick up or delivery, you have to ensure you tell them over and over how you want the food. Ordered chicken fried rice with 'no veggies at all, no mushrooms, no onions..nothing.' Disappointed to find no chicken and all veggies. Not too much of a big deal as they usually get it right. Just wanted others to be aware you have to be VERY assertive as to what you want and don't want.

I got a combo 3 and an order of chicken balls. My kids wouldn't eat the chicken balls at all. They didn't like the batter or the sauce. The rice in my combo was bland. It was supposed to be fried rice but it just seemed like steamed white rice with a cupful of soy sauce. I found the chicken balls to be extremely salty, and I am always heavy on the seasoning when I cook. I could barely eat one. Otherwise the ribs were good as well as the egg roll and chicken chow mein.

This is the 5th time I've ordered from House of Chan in Millidgeville, up until lately it was always the House of Chan in Brunswick Square. (I live closer to Millidgeville one now) The food in Millidgeville is beyond awesome. I can't even describe how tasty those egg rolls are. Each time I ordered, the food was consistent. Neatly put in the tray. And looked so appetizing.

We have had several meals at the house of Chan. All have been tasting. We have noticed that when we order the meal is not necessarily identical to the last time, I ordered it. Always tasty!

It was the worst Chinese food I ever ate. I had been warned that it wasn't very good, but I had a terrible craving for Chinese. Ordered a combo with chicken balls, chow mein, fried rice, and spare ribs. I substituted the spare ribs for more chow mein. Ate 3 bites of chowmein with was just a veg & chicken stir-fry (not actually chow mein ), pieces of veggies were cut so large I had to cut each one 2 more times. The chicken in it was good but there was only a few pieces of chicken. Chicken balls...ate half of 1 and then tried a mouthful of the rice. It was at this point, I threw the whole combo in the garbage and got a bowl of cereal. Chicken balls had a terrible batter and the s&s sauce actually smelled funny...and tasted worse. There were tons of sesame seeds on my chicken balls. I hate sesame seeds. The rice tasted nothing like fried rice. It just tasted like white rice does when you drown it in soy sauce. Hopefully someone else will read my post and avoid the disappointment and save their money. I sure wish I had paid attention when I was told it was not very good.

Great decorations for the first impression. Prices are relatively high compare to other House of Chan's and other fast food restaurants, but personally l think as a dine in restaurant with these decorations, and dishes that are more delicate, at this point they did a good job in differenciate themselves. Personally l had a satisfied, positive first time experience there, ordered a Sichuan Chicken with a cup of Wulong Tea, cost around 20 bucks included tips and taxes, plus the servers actually brought my food to me. As an American style Chinese food, they did fairly well on the food presenting and tasting.

Awesome food, great attentive staff. Couldn't actually ask for more. If any restaurant deservers to actually survive in this wonderful little city, its those folks. Yellow curried chicken was more home cooked feeling than just about any Thai restaurant I've ever been.

The service itself was good but the food, not so much. Chicken balls were hard, rice had a weird taste and chow mein was terrible. The only thing that was good was the egg role. Will not be going back to this place.

I just purchased take-out at this location. I order the padh thai which is one of the best gluten free options in this area. I was driving home and two deer ran out in front of my vehicle. I jammed on the breaks and my take-out order went flying through the air off of my passenger seat and into the back of the passenger footwell. I was pleased to discover, after I had arrived home, that the contents were perfectly intact and that the lid was still very secure. Good job! Keep putting those lids on tight, you never know in Millidgeville!

Food was OK. Nothing to write home about. Will probably choose Subway next time I visit the nearby Supercharger.

Awesome food, a great little gem for the area. We really enjoyed our dinner.

Not happy with the food. It was soggy and over priced for the portions. I asked for an upgrade to chicken fried rice that cost an extra $4 plus tax. I received no chicken in one order and 3 little pieces in the other the size of peas. I called and was greeted with a pompous attitude. Dont waste your time or money.

The chicken Pad Thai is not near as good as the Galina restaurant on Milledge Avenue. There chicken pad Thai is so much better in comparison. Stand Alone Above the Rest
