Tony Cheng

Although it appears a bit pricey, food portions and quality are of value. Just make sure to ask for more rice to give yourself a good ratio to the entree. Soup dumplings were great and the Sizzling combination was very good. Loaded with all the proteins although hard to tell from picture without digging in. Restaurant setting is a bit, old, dingy, musty but in a non-chain way. Food came quick. Staff is no nonsense and to the point. Neither nice or mean. Just matter of fact. Restaurant was to capacity just after the usual lunch rush.

This place is great for families and has great drinks. It gave us the option of using chopsticks. Tony Chang has sweet sauce and cheesy chicken. I ordered some scrumptious shrimp spring rolls and some nice rice which came with delicious scrambled eggs. I got chewy, hot, spicy meat with soft mushrooms. The restaurant had wonderful speggeti with the BEST SHRIMP. I also got some warm and flavorful Wonton soup which became my favorite and came with something that was crunch and chip-like. They gave us some exciting fortune cookies which some of the kids thought were pointless😉. The atmosphere is wonderful and peaceful. Overall, Tony Cheng had excellent food and is one of the best restaurants I've went to with the exceptions of Don Churro Resturant in Chantilly and KikiRiki Restaurant in Woodbridge which no one can beat!!!😁😁😁

Really surprised by the negative reviews. Even though most are complaints about cost and a service charge (18% automatic gratuity)… as if most of you just go out without any intention of tipping… 🙄 We were in town for a Marathon and were staying walking distance to Chinatown and came across Tony Cheng’s on a quick Apple Maps search and everything was absolutely delicious. Were prices on the “higher” end? Sure. But food at Applebees is $18 now. The decor is stuck in the 80’s but it made the experience that much better, as we all enjoyed the atmosphere as well. We ordered the soup dumplings, fried meat dumplings, orange chicken, sesame chicken, Mongolian beef, and vegetable lo mein. Every dish we had was talked about for days, as being one of our favorite Asian meals in a long time. Service was absolutely wonderful as well, as about 3 different servers checked on us, delivered our food, cleaned up our plates, etc. I requested the sesame chicken to be on the spicy side, and they happily obliged and brought me out a chili oil in case the dish wasn’t spicy enough. It was perfect. We had no problem paying the 18% service charge, because we’re decent people who always tip atleast 20%, in this case, we ended up nearly doubling it and tipping extra because we had such a great experience, delicious meal, and fabulous service. 10/10 would return to Tony Cheng’s at any given opportunity when we’re back in DC.

This is the best American style Chinese restaurant there is. Prices are high but they come with good value. Whereas most breaded chicken dishes these days are all crunchy corn starch, Tony Chang’s are big solid chunks of white meat with a light coating and very good sauce. The portions are also meant for sharing. We always order too much. 3 dishes for 4 is probably good. Seafood dishes we tried were good. Love the sizzling scallops.

I was visiting with family from Philly and wanted to try the Chinese food in DC. The service was great. Waiter and waitress was super nice. They refill our drink and service us great. We love our waiter, he did an amazing job taking care of us and letting my nephew take picture with the lobster. When I saw the service charge I automatically know it mean tips so I had no problem paying the service charge. We was planing on tipping around 20% anyways so we had no problem. The food however was alittle salty. I wish the duck was crispier. The walnut shrimp was alil over cooked. But I did enjoy the fried noodle and the Chinese broccoli.
