About China Chen

Located in Sun City Center, Florida, China Chen is a Chinese restaurant that has garnered positive feedback from many local customers, despite some negative reviews that exist online. It is recognized for providing fresh, well-prepared Chinese cuisine, primarily for takeout.

Environment: Customers consistently describe the restaurant itself as always clean, contributing to a positive perception of their operations.

Services: The staff at China Chen are frequently mentioned as being very hard-working, even going above and beyond, such as staying open during Hurricane Milton without AC to serve the community. They are also described as consistently kind and friendly, providing good customer service. Orders are typically cooked while customers wait, ensuring freshness and promptness for pickup.

Features: China Chen is appreciated for its food being consistently fresh, well-seasoned, and never greasy or overcooked. A notable feature for some customers is their take on Canadian-style Chinese food, particularly the egg rolls which are made without carrots – a significant preference for some. Their sweet and sour chicken balls are also noted as being quite similar to the Canadian style. Portions are described as very generous, and the prices are considered reasonable for the quality and quantity offered. Initially, the chicken fried rice was highlighted for not containing peas and carrots, which was a positive for some, but a more recent edit indicates that this may have changed.

Promotional Information: China Chen is recommended as a great local Chinese option, especially for those seeking fresh, well-prepared takeout. Many customers express their loyalty and intention to continue supporting the business due to the consistently good food quality, generous portions, reasonable prices, and the kind, hard-working staff. If you appreciate Chinese food that is cooked fresh and is not greasy, and if you have a preference for Canadian-style dishes like egg rolls without carrots, China Chen might be worth trying. However, recent feedback regarding potential changes in ingredients like peas and carrots in the fried rice should be considered.

I'm not sure why there's so many negative reviews. I've been here a few times, including placing a big family order for New Years eve dinner so we can enjoy the day and take a break from holiday cooking. The food is always fresh, is cooked while we wait, and it's well seasoned. The food has never been greasy or overcooked and overall the resturant is always clean. The staff is very hard working (they were open during Hurricane Milton cooking with no AC to help feed the community) and they are always kind and friendly. I love this place and will continue to support their business.

This is the closest I've come to finding canadian style Chinese food. Egg rolls, especially. No carrots! Finally! Prices are in line with what you can expect to pay for this style of takeout. Portions are very generous. Unlike other locations, we will return here. The sweet and sour chicken balls as well is pretty close. Also, there are no carrots and peas in the chicken friend rice either 👍. I was very impressed overall. 👏 when we arrived, it was all ready to go and in a sturdy cardboard box. thank you, China Chen! Edit. Recently ordered from here again, and unlike last time, the chicken friend rice had peas and carrots in it. Just to advise.

Very disappointed in the food and service from this restaurant! This place is usually very nice (service and food). That wasn’t the case on 3/17/25. The person who took my order when I called in was brash and I could hear yelling in the background. I should’ve taken that queue and not proceeded with my order but I assumed that they were in the middle of a dinner rush. The Burbon chicken was dry and tasted old, the dumplings were undercooked and the fried rice was bland(even after adding sauce to it). Time to find another place because this one missed the mark.

Our szechuan chicken was barely edible. Egg roll was greasy and looked like it was fried earlier and leftover. This place used to be pretty good but the last 2 years it has gone downhill. From now on we will get from the KFC Plaza in Ruskin. Coats a little more but we'll worth it

Okay so the inside isn’t anything special, but its more for takeout! At least there was a place to sit when I spontaneously decided to eat some of my food at the restaurant. This is my first time ordering their food and I was pleasantly surprised to say it was really delicious! I ordered house lomein and house egg foo young! My food was ready at the time he said it would be! All while I was there, their phone rang off the hook and at several points the line (to order or pick up) was nearly out the door! The younger man at the counter was so fast that you could hardly understand that he was saying “China Chen” when he answered their phone! I would order from them again!! I got a lot of good food for a very reasonable price! I recommend this place!
