The lunch special is quite the bargain. Tuesday's special is broccoli with your choice of meat. Fresh broccoli in a stir fry sauce tastes really good. I got it with beef. I might try it with chicken. The egg rolls are reason enough to come here. If you've ever gone to 711 for those dry bland overpriced taquitos, forget that. For 75 cent or a dollar you can get a much better egg roll here. The egg foo yong is awesome. I like the sausage egg foo yong. It is like Hillshire Farm or Johnsonville sausage cut up mixed with egg and onion. There are a few meals that could maybe use more spices. I don't think there's any Kung Pao Chicken on the menu. That's something I'd like. I have not tried the subs. It is one of the best places within walking distance.
The pork chop does not taste like pork chop,it tastes like a Wilde animal . All I know it's nasty and doesn't taste like pork don't order that dish
I had precise orders of how I wanted my order and they repeated it verbatim and presented it exactly ???how I desired
**Cash only!! And very reasonable $. 757 Old school take out!! Real Chop suey!! Yock!!!.Hot Sausage & dark gravy!!
Best Yock in this area hands down. to Top this you must go over to Newport News to Sam's.
The egg rolls need more filling. Overall they were ok.
Food was freshly made and very good
Don't expect typical Chinese menu. This place is known for a noodle/meat dish called Yokamein. Often referred to as Chinese Soul food, only Portsmouth, Va and New Orleans residents know about Yok. Mama Chan's has been around for many years and is a local area staple that is popular among locals. Whenever I visit, it is a mandatory visit to Mama Chan's to order a Chicken Yok with extra meat. The sausage and rice with brown gravy is my other favorite. Best for take out. It's one of those scenarios where you either love it or hate it depending on your point of reference for Chinese food.
Food Was Good.
They have mice in mama chans and I love there food but im not spending no more money
