  I was wanting some Mongolian beef so I saw it was on the menu and I drove over, my lunch combo thing might win once I am in the place for the fried rice. The place has moved around the corner from the original spot but it's in the same building, on the big lot side now.
  
  The menu is huge with my Mongolian beef and it's a lunch special also but I went with the dinner Mongolian beef and an order of pork egg rolls. My food came fast and hot in about 10 minutes with my order of egg rolls.
  
  The egg rolls were the smaller kind but two in the order which were better than average but not that great egg roll. The Mongolian beef looked and smelled good and thank you for not skimping on the beef and using a ton of onions to make it look bigger like some places do. The Mongolian beef Was good with that slightly sweet Taste and that quiet heat, you can't feel it on your tongue like hot wings but your nose starts to run. The beef was plentiful and tender with green and white onions that had some crunch left in them, thank you.
  
  Overall my crave for Mongolian beef was completely satisfied because it was beefy with just the right amount onions so I would definitely go back for more of the menu. 188.

  Ordered via Uber Eats and I was pleased with the speed of the product.. however this place totally missed the mark of flavor and presentation. I ordered Scezuan Beef and it was FAR from spicy or flavorful..
  the sweet & Sour chicken was more than breading vs actual meat.
  Like a total disappointment, Panda Express is better than this.
  Sorry but this is NOT authentic Chinese or even close to Chinese

  I was craving food not made by myself, so we took a gamble and ordered Huan Xi through Eatstreet for delivery.
  
  They have a good selection on the menu, and lots of vegetarian options. It's disappointing that they don't have descriptions or photos of their dishes, which forced me to Google what's in what traditionally. I think that would be huge help for their customers, especially because some people have allergies.
  
  My boyfriend wanted the General Tso's Chicken (medium spice) and it came with a side for $8.25, not bad. All of their dinner special options are the same way. I wanted tofu and broccoli but nothing on the menu really stood out to me so I went with the mock chicken, Kung Pao Vegetarian Chicken, medium spice level.
  
  I threw in a few extras, a side of vegetable spring rolls, the pancakes, and crab rangoon. The spring rolls were smaller and could have used more filling, and even though the menu says you get 2 we got 4.
  
  The crab rangoon was decent, sauce packets provided. I have to admit I didn't know what the pancakes would look like but I assumed a pancake of some sort. To my surprise, they're just paper thin crepe like square sheets and honestly I don't even know how you would use them. They're 4 for a $1 so it wasn't a huge waste of money but next time I will skip those.
  
  The mock chicken. Oh please, no. Bad idea. That ruined my dish. It's rubbery, has a weird shape like a curled up flat square, and honestly just thinking about the texture when I chewed it makes me cringe. It was like chewing on a rubber band ball. For this dish, why do they not offer tofu as an option instead? Maybe in person it's possible to sub things. But aside from that, the sauce was really runny and zero spice, I asked for medium. It wasn't flavorful at all. There were random mushrooms, carrots, celery, green peppers and peanuts. It was a strange dish and I would not recommend it no matter what protein is used.
  
  My boyfriend liked his dish so there's that. I'm sure there are great things on the menu based on the reviews here, it just wasn't a win for me.

  Prices are quite reasonable and the quantities are good. Quality has been consistently good. Never had a bad meal. Their chicken wings are delicious. Loved all the entree dishes that I have tried so far. Their delivery service is also pretty consistent, food always arrived hot and on time.

  I went in to Huan Xi for hot pot with my friends for a belated LNY dinner. Now, I'm a firm believer that each restaurant has its own special thing, their special thing is what they do best and it really is what makes them shine.
  At Huan Xi, their hot pot makes them shine. A great assortment of ingredients, "Hot Pot Projectiles" (they're all getting thrown in), and all were good quality and brought out quickly after we ordered them.
  
  I ordered a bubble tea, the tapioca was good, cooked all the way through unlike some other boba I've had in Chicago. I ordered a taro boba, but I think I was just given a regular milk tea. Oh well, it was still delicious, stuff happens, and the food was good. No complaints here.
  
  I was intrigued by the individual hot pot burners, and I look forward to future return trips - it was nice to have that option, especially for people who want to eat alone, with dietary restrictions, or who have food allergies.
  
  For good hot pot, with good quality ingredients and an atmosphere like a family restaurant you feel at home in, Huan Xi is the place to go!
