Very true the worSt Chinese food I’ve ever had ! Everything was so soggy and disgusting. I tried to return it they are giving me the run around. I told them to come pick it up. Please don’t listen to the 5 star reviews they must be from the owner or something. This really couldn’t be worse

Yikes… with 5 star reviews and nothing but great feedback, I really thought taking a risk on Chan’s as we passed through town would pay off. I was really really wrong. Where to start… Their service was lovely and they were fast(10 minutes?!) Almost too fast to cook our food fresh… hmmmmm. We ordered for take out and we’re thrilled to receive a free dish for hitting the $ 32 mark. We chose the chicken chow mein as our freebie. It was a bland sad clump of chow mein noodles that were chopped into smaller pieces. Flavorless and sprinkled with chopped up chicken bits on top. Meh… this one is going to need soy sauce. My guys favorite is the ginger beef… Although floppy and chewy, the flavor wasn’t awful. The chewiness was somewhat distracting as the pieces felt more like fat and the occasional strips of meat. Pass… The peppered beef tips gave the most promise upon first tastes. The sauce was loaded with flavor and spicy. Juicy mushrooms and onions floated amongst the steak tips. Looks pretty good so far. Then the beef… the pink tone of the beef made me think it was simply undercooked, possibly medium rare. The meat proved to be spongy and had an odd flavor. I couldn’t put my finger on it but it just tasted awful. 3 down…2 to go. The chicken with cashew nuts and mixed vegetables… ho boy. This one was especially sad. The carrots were almost frozen inside and the chicken was slimy and the lowest quality meat I have ever seen. I barely tried a bite of the chicken as the texture was so off putting. Just terrible. Last was the sweet and sour boneless pork… this one wasn’t actually bad at all. Not to much dough on the bits, the meat was only a little fatty but edible. The sweet and sour sauce was very potent and made the pork quite tasty. So as I am sitting here staring sadly at $ 45 worth of Chinese food that is laced with regret and poor quality meat. Might want to avoid this one and be more leery of 5 star ratings on Unilocal from now on.

There are two things that my uncle told me to always remember… don’t trust someone with two first names and never eat Chinese from a strip mall. As I found out tonight only one of these is true. We decided to eat out after a long day of shopping at home depot, on our way home we discovered Chan’s. Now I was a little leary at first… but Chan’s turned out to be the best Chinese food I have ever had hands down. Also Chan’s was very affordable for a great dinner. Clean very friendly and delicious. I highly recommend you try Chan’s.

Always drove by but nevwr went in until recently. Haven’t regretted it since. Décor is outdated and well its a typical but clean chinese restaurant. But the food is great! Love the spicy salty fried shrimp dish! The chow mein is not the best but decent especially considering the competition across the street

This is my favourite Chinese in Langley. Not greasy, no MSG, and overall great quality! We’ve been ordering for years and will continue to.

Our large extended family(of 35+) decided to order-in on Easter Sunday, so that everyone could relax in the sun and enjoy easter egg painting instead of basting a turkey. Chan’s was one of the few places open on easter, so I called the day before and they helped me select items that would please a large crowd aged 2 to 92. Some vegetarians, some meat lovers, some hungry teens. It arrived piping hot at 5:30 sharp, as promised, and it was a bit hit with everyone. The vegetable dishes were especially good — fresh and perfectly tender crisp. Nothing was too salty or greasy. Nothing was drowned in goopy sauces either. Healthy and filling and hardly any leftovers, thanks to their menu-planning assistance. Highly recommend!
