Choi's Chinese Restaurant — Restaurant in Jefferson Township

I rarely take the time to write a review but I feel obligated to send everyone a warning since I did not pay attention to a few of the reviews I read before I went to this place which over and over again mentioned the same over the top unacceptable Behavior from whoever the guy is in charge. Ive just moved to Chicago and the food is good and affordable.... so I was excited to find a place nearby and quite ironically had just complimented whoever checked me out telling them how happy I was to have found them and then left a 50% tip then ...Then whoever this OTHER horrific owner was ..AFTER I'd even asked permission just to sit down for 5 minutes at a table and eat a little bit of what I just ordered until my ride came .....the guy said yes ....then God forbid I asked for a napkin and quite literally after less than 5 minutes whoever this owner was( an older Chinese man )...told me "we don't want you here ..u go go ...out..now?!?! and I said I had just ordered something to go when I've been here 5 minutes oh you go you go out the rudest I've ever been treated ever at a restaurant EVER... and even though I left in this review that the food is really good or at least a five times that I've had it since I've been in Chicago but I want everyone to know the way I was treated makes this some place to avoid absolutely. unacceptable the way I was treated and I will...

Was very fresh & yummy. Ordered orange chicken for my picky husband, and he liked it, not too spicy. I had beef with mixed vegetables, but ordered beef & green beans which they were out of, and I didn't mind the change because it was my 2nd choice. I was happy with what I got. Tasted good & fresh. Also ordered crab rangoon which my husband wasn't too crazy about because it was too creamy & had onions which he doesn't like. All the food was good and plentiful for the price. It's hard to find good Chinese food since our favorite place closed over 20 years ago, but after a long search I think we found a replacement restaurant finally. And my cousin owns a Chinese restaurant, but I'd prefer Choi's food now. Ssshhhh,...

Yes, the owner is gruff and speaks limited English. Honestly, who cares? We're all adults, we don't need or want everywhere to be a flippin' Chili's.

It took me 2 years to try Choi's, even though I live around the corner. It just doesn't look like much.

The portions are huge, the food quality is very high, and the prices are low. It won't win any awards for complexity, but if you want to pay $15 for enough tasty standard Chinese fare to last you 2 days, this place is fantastic. Big soft pot-stickers and crispy Crab Rangoon, great curry, kung pao and cashew chicken. Dishes are full of veggies and nuts. Hit's the spot. Definitely order takeout or delivery because the ambiance is...
