Had lunch at Bistro Chen. They have a lunch menu including soup, rice and entree for a very reasonable price. I had Mongolian beef and my friends had shrimp in garlic sauce. Everything was delicious and nicely presented. The hot and sour soup was excellent. Hope diners will give this restaurant a try. They also have an all-you-can-eat sushi dinner for $28. Hope to try that sometime.

We have never eaten here before and being unsure what to order we went for rolls and entrees, both were outstanding! Full of flavor and freshness it was very much a win win!!!

Ayce sushi for lunch $28. Vast selection even included noodles! I tried the Singapore and Beef Chow Fun. General Tso Chicken, Lo Mein, nice loose leaf green tea in a personal pot. Crab rangoons came with something. Hot Sour Soup. All was great. Service great. It was dark, that was my only complaint. Cute outside dining area but no one was in there the 2 times I went.

Friendly staff and nice dishes. Could order different cook styles as long they have the ingredients. Daily specials on the wall are cool too.

We have lived in the area for 4 years and pretty much tried every Chines Restaurant within approx 10 miles. We were looking for a place for dinner and past by Bistro Chen and decided to try it.... The food was excellent, great atmosphere, and the hosted and waitress was soooo nice. The prices were very reasonable. Give them a try, you WILL ENJOY IT.
