    We’ve been coming here for 20 years and the food is still great as ever. You can never go wrong with the combo fried rice and garlic chicken! :) Parking isn’t hard to find and the staff are super friendly. Would highly recommend if you’re in Menlo Park.

    Consistency is present every time. Good flavors, great staff. Never a bad experience. Best place in town for sure hands down.

    My go-to chinese food for the past 4yrs! Used to go there at least once a week - usually when my child came back from sports meet. The owner (same as my name) started recognizes me.... Missed his food so much - we moved overseas temperory for now unfortunately. But when we r back in town, we'll definitely head back for our fav - beef w/ brocolli (brown sauce!) and Beijing chicken wings!

    Whenever I think of good Chinese food, I always think of this place. In fact, I usually use it as a benchmark when buying from other places but the answer is always the same "it's not as good as Chef Kwan's!" I have been going here for about 15 years, which is before their name change, but the service and food quality never changed. Whenever I am in the area now and need something to eat, or want to grab take out for family and friends, this is THE spot!

    Chef Kwan’s is a solid choice for American Chinese takeout. The food is pretty good, with all the classics you'd expect; nothing too fancy, but definitely satisfying. They have a good variety on the menu, so it’s easy to find something for everyone. One of the best things about this place is how fast they are. My order was ready in just 10 minutes, and the service was quick and efficient. It’s clearly set up for takeout, so don’t go expecting a dine-in experience; but for a quick and tasty meal to go, Chef Kwan’s delivers.
