Customer Reviews
Owner recommended I try their egg rolls and they were delicious! The sesame chicken was one of the best I have had in Chicago - definitely going back soon. Great spot for dine in or takeout/delivery.
Dine-in is OPEN!!! And Lane is giving it his best. Food was just as I remember it from 1993-2020: savory, delectably spicy, and delicious. Service was fantastic. There is no Chinese food like here. If Lane listens to constructive feedback and makes those legitimate tweaks that respectful low-star eaters have made, Mon Lung will be THE BEST CHINESE CUISINE RESTAURANT IN CHICAGO. They are very, very busy, so cut them some slack. They are only human like you and me. Don’t walk in here with an attitude and demanding. Running a business like he is, is tough. Imagine having to put on a smile for 300 people in and out every day. Have some compassion, but also do yourself a favor and give them another chance. You won’t be disappointed.
Love this place. Super friendly staff, super solid prices, and great food. The menu is huge, so you may need to try a few dishes before you find the ones they do great (the black mushroom combination is my favorite for example). Pickup order turnaround tends to be fast but can occasionally get backed up.
I am a huge fan of Mon Lung and would highly recommend! Mon Lung has fair prices, big portions and delicious. I love going here for the lunch combo when I am WFH. Chicken fried rice and sesame (or orange) chicken and some egg rolls are my go-to comfort foods — so I am pretty much getting this every time. All excellent, 5/5 star meal. The inside is cute and cozy and I especially love that it’s family-owned. Reminds me of the good ol’ mom and pop shops I used to frequent back home.
Everything you expect from an original Chinese restaurant. What really blew me away was the attentive service, usually service is a hit or miss for me in Asian restaurants. On top of all that my two favorite things were the Wong tong soup and the beef fried rice. I appreciate that their lunch special came with rice and an egg roll. All the food I tried was delicious and I can't wait to go back.
