Been going here for years. Amazing food and amazing service. I recommended the general tsaos chicken, Mongolian beef or chicken, combination schezwuan noodles or spicy human chicken. For appetizers, shrimp pakoora is a must!

This is possibly the best indo-chinese food you can find in the Chicago land area. I have lived in Chicago for over 15 years and I have tried them all. There was a restaurant called Bamboo Garden which was also very delicious but they closed down for some reason. I tried a few others but this is definitely a favorite. I’m surprised someone mentioned about the owner being rude whereas I found him pretty friendly/sweet. He is a Chinese man who especially went to India to learn the indo-chinese cuisine. Almost everything I have tried has been fantastic and all his sauces/flavorings for the dishes are different. Favorites include but are not limited to: Baby corn bhazzia, chili/manchurian fish or chicken, and ginger/garlic fried rice. The food is fresh and comes out piping hot and is bursting with flavor! Baby corn always seems like it just came out the fryer, crispy and golden brown and they serve it with the most amazing mouth watering sauce. I usually wouldn’t go to a chinese restaurant and order fish but when I come here I do because it’s absolutely amazing. I don’t even like fish that much but here I order it! Can’t go wrong-now that I’ve moved I’m always missing the food here and always make sure to dine when I am in Chicago!

Horrible service. Called an order for pickup in and was told 630 pick is perfect and 645 I still haven’t got our food. Owners wife doesn’t even acknowledge me and the extra wait as I wait for an order and keep looking around. Then they finally 655 the gentleman waiter brings it to me.

This is my favorite Chinese spot. It’s neat, clean, and the atmosphere is warming. The quality of their food is unparalleled with other competing establishments in the area. I have been here with family and friends multiple times and have never left disappointed. My only gripe is that they tame the flavor for the American palate. Even though some items indicate that they fall under the«spicy» category, they are rather far removed. This one time, out of my several satisfied visits, the chicken item I ordered tasted sweet rather than spicy. I brought this to the attention to the server who proceeded to argue with me instead of making it right. It took a 5 minute dialogue with the imbecile, before he took my food back to the kitchen to get it right.

I have been to this place multiple times, and yes i an a fan. The food here isn’t your typical Chinese food, it is more like fusion food, Chinese with an Indian twist to it. The atmosphere here is nice, decent size place, not to loud. the staff is great, very friendly. and the food here is consistent, you can come here 10 times and the food will always taste the same. I really like the Kung Pao chicken, one of my favorite items on the menu. something that i tried for the first time and I would recommend are the Hot Garlic Chicken Wontons. Overall the atmosphere is nice, staff is friendly and the food is great. I really like this place, it has turned into one of my default spots, for when I don’t feel like trying something new and/or don’t exactly know what i am craving. Chang’s Hot Wok it is.

Nice atmosphere. Friendly Service. Food is inconsistent though. You may order the same dish 5 times in a row(I have) and the quality will be hit or miss each time. Sometimes the beef is tough or melt in your mouth tender. Sometimes the chicken is tender or like little pieces of jerky. The sauces may change on you or the amount of meat compared to veggies. The spring rolls are simple and amazing. The soups as well. They just need consistency to justify the prices.

Amazing! I eat here ATLEAST twice a week! It’s not just your ordinary Chinese restaurant every dish if full of unique spices and so flavorful in its own way! You must try Chang’s today!

Only reason I gave this place as many stars as I did is because the food is halal. Otherwise this place is nothing special. The service is terrible and the food is extremely overpriced. If you plan on going I would recommend you to go for their lunch specials.

Some dishes is either a hit or a miss, but that’s what I get for trying to be adventurous. It’s especially disappointing when the flavor doesn’t match it’s price, but it’s the quality of the ingredients that you’re paying for. I’ve never had bad service here. I recommend the fresh squeezed lemonade & Mongolian chicken~ delicious!

Poor service. Ordered wonton soup and the skin/wrapper was uncooked towards the center. Server argued, still charged us for it, and wouldn’t let us substitute for something else. Never coming back.

I came to this place off a friends suggestion. We heard that the chef had come from the successful Hot Wok in Atlanta that had closed its doors a few years ago. Instinctively we ordered our favorites from the old Hot Wok. The chicken pakoras, house hot wings, Mongolian beef, and hunan chicken. I’ll keep it short and simple the food was not up to par. We ordered the food spicy, but instead we received under spiced and under flavored dishes. The wings were slightly raw from the inside and lacked any flavor. The only dish that made me change my rating from a 2 to a 3 was the Mongolian beef which was stellar. Service is okay, cold but not as good as it should be. Which can sum up my experience at Changs Hot Wok.

Didn’t hear about this place until a family member mentioned it to me. We went this past weekend and it was AMAZING! The location is a bit off but it’s clean and the people were very friendly. All of the food was seasoned great and tasted amazing!

Tried this place for the first time today. Wouldn’t come back. The portions are on the smaller side for the price, I mean for a couple of dollars more you can get double the food and much better food at Bombay chopsticks. We had the chicken lollipops which had a lot of Indian spices– I did not enjoy them that much. The hot & sour soup was really good. The beef hot black garlic was just alright, same with the chicken Szechuan noodles. They skimp on the meat and give you a tiny bowl of rice in proportion to the entrée size, and then when you ask for extra rice, they charge you without even letting you know. We were the only ones there and they still took a long time to bring out the food, and our entrees still came out at different times. The service was terrible– our server didn’t even smile, and she was nowhere to be found for most of our meal. In fact, there was no one in sight when we needed something.

A good place to go and have a good time with family. Food is ok and so is the ambiance. The owner is friendly and caters to every need. Must visit if going with family to enjoy quality family time. Done proudly! Umair.

One of my all time favorite restaurants. We started eating at the original location years ago, it used to be in Hoffman Estates. Their«new» location is in Carol Stream(they’ve been here for a number of years now) The cuisine is Haka Chinese. The Haka Chinese settled in India a few generations ago, amd they incorporated Indian spices/techniques with their Chinese food. And the result is AMAZING. We went for my parents’ anniversary, and there were 16 of us. So we ordered a virtual buffet of all of our favs. Must have’s include: chicken hot garlic wontons, house special wings, chicken and shrimp pakoras, manchow soup, chicken corn soup, haka noodles, chili chicken(dry and gravy), Manchurian chicken(dry and gravy), beef with okra, chicken basil, chili potatoes. And you MUST try, what I lovingly refer to as, their«magic» sauce. It makes everything even more delicious! As part of a Restaurant Management class, I audited/inspected Chang’s Hot Wok, including the kitchen. And I can assure you, it is super clean, hygenic, and well organized. Food items are maintained at the right temps, produce and meats are stored properly. It is a pristine kitchen. I recommend this restaurant to anyone, vegetarians and non vegetarians alike.

Was a bit reluctant to go here because of the hugely divergent reviews and plus yesterday I had a very bad experience at another halal Chinese joint. One of my pet peeves with restaurants is inconsistency and since I cant judge these guys on that they only get 4-stars; however, the food I got today was 5 star worthy. Crispy egg roll that aren’t doughy or have any trace of remnant oil. My main dish was the hicken Manchurian which was hands down one of the best I had. I do wish it was more spicy but I didn’t add for extra spice. The only complaint would be that the chicken was ever so slightly overcooked. For the 1-star’ers maybe there is a lack of consistency here? or maybe if you expect something more spicy just ask, «yo, I can feel my tongue and I don’t like having sensation in my tongue, can you pour some more red hurt into the sauce» — I’m sure you’ll get your spice kick.

Food is ok but what is up with those big fish trapped in tiny aquarium like that. They can barely move in there. It’s the equivalent of being trapped in a closet eternally no where to go.

Ever since Bamboo Garden shut down, we’ve been all miserable about the lack of Indo-Chinese cuisine in the area. As it turns out, there are several Hakka wok places which are basically the same thing. Yay! Service here was friendly and efficient, though I had to sigh a bit when our server took our orders without writing them down and then had to ask a few minutes later, «Wait, what was that again?» …and she still got the order slightly wrong. I just wish servers wouldn’t do that, it stresses me out: P. The fried garlic tofu was excellent. And wow that green sauce – sweet and tasty but oh so spicy, it was hard to keep eating. I ordered the sweet and sour bhazzia, which I was pleased to find was almost the same thing as the veggie coins I used to get at Bamboo Garden. The sauce was alarmingly neon red, but tasted perfectly delicious. Next time I’m thinking I’ll get the manchurian sauce because I stole a little spoonful from my partner’s manchurian beef and it was amazing. Not actually that spicy, despite having the double-pepper annotation on the menu. Definitely recommend ordering the fresh lemon soda as well – I’ve never had anything quite like it.
