See Thru Chinese Kitchen

I've been coming here for years. Overall food is good and my go to spot, there's days where you can tell they were short on a few ingredients but 9/10 they are consistent. She definitely has the best egg foo young and kung pao chicken. FYI: Call ahead they cook to order and it's cash only. Update: Not sure what happened, but they have randomly closed. Sucks they had the best egg rolls and egg foo young.

First of all I wanted to give 0-star, but you have to give 1! I order a small 🔥 spicy fried rice, I asked for extra onion, extra bean sprouts, and extra eggs. When I got home there were No extras, but I was charged, and paid for them! I called back and told the person at the front who take all the orders, and I told her I want my money back for the extras that I did not receive. She told me next time she give them and no charge. She said she only charged 3 dollars and she remember next time she add them at no charge. I told her that there will be No next time and I want my 3 dollars back. I asked can I pickup my 3 dollars tomorrow! She said I'm very busy, I give to you next time no charge. I will never purchase anything from Chinese See Through Kitchen on 83rd and Cottage Grove again. The order had the veggies that came with it, but I paid for the extras, because I wanted them in food. Unbelievable, that she will not give me my 3 dollars back. I didn't request the money for the order that I got. Just for what I paid for and didn't Get. Please check your orders at this place before you leave. Which can be hard with this type of food, but once you leave, it's will not be made right. I called as soon as I got home and opened my order, and saw it didn't have what I had paid for. A customer came in after me, placed an order and she gave them the price the customer asked for a receipt, because they stated they always order the same thing and it has never been that high. She went back over the otder and the price was significant lower. Buyer Be Aware!

Coming from Aurora and having the best Chinese food thus far I tried See Thru. The food was good although we asked for spicy orange chicken and it was not. Egg rolls were fried a bit too hard for my liking but again overall good. They do give you a lot of food for the price.

Sad to see them go! I'm not sure how long they where in business. I been a loyal customer for the past 15yrs. I never got my Chinese food anywhere else. My son who 23 grew up on the best Chinese food in the area. I feel Iike we watched each other get older. These past few months I noticed the random closing and reopening. I knew it had to be because they're aging and still trying to run a business. I wish them the best in their lives and retirement. My Chinese food will never be the same without them. I wish they would have closed with a warning so we all could have shown some appreciation for serving delicious affordable options in this community for well over 20yrs. I'm sad to see them go! I'm guessing that they didn't have any family to keep the business going. It probably wouldn't have been the same without them. I saw this happened to another fav Billy's on 79th when Billy pasted. Whoever took over killed the brand. Best wishes! Blessed retirement! I hope they see this! You definitely have the best food in town!

The food is pretty good. However, the building is disgusting, the seats are shredded, and they do not take credit/debit cards. Cash only in 2019?? Terrible customer service. My mom was loyal customer for 10+ years and they didn’t even know her name. It’s truly saddening how little they care to upkeep the place and the relationships of those who spend money hard earned money with them.
