Gilbert's Kitchen - Elgin

The best Chinese food around! I'm not kidding. No place to sit and eat, it's just out. Tell them when you eat in the car, they give you utensils. I love this place. Amazing roasted rice, tasty crab Rangoon... Soups all amazing, Mongolian beef has the bar for all other... General Tao chicken, brilliant, like the orange chicken. I could go on and on. It is a hole in the wall Chinese place, but it is clean clean clean clean. Very affordable, large portions too. You are so friendly and grab food, so it stays hot! We drove an hour to eat and stopped eating, and it was HOT. If you're ever in the area, and want hot, delicious Chinese... I highly recommend

Possibly known the largest Chinese cuisine of modern humanity. There are not enough stars on Google Maps to give this facility. If I was in a room with manna from heaven or a cardboard box of Gilbert's bbq pork, I would choose the rice easily. Next place is Cozy inn chinese in janesville Wisconsin

Been going here for years. Moved about 30 miles away and still my go to for Mongolian beef! Would recommend to anyone.

I remember the Jumbo egg rolls being…JUMBO. Not so much any more. Just slightly larger than a normal one. Huh

Woman at the counter was rude. Didn't want to sell two large white rices, she said they were running out and doubled down by saying she just didn't want to. Even if I'm paying??!!! With that said, I bought a rice and soup so I could pay via credit. Soup had no flavor. I frequented this restaurant years ago. I moved , came back and must say I'll never return again. It was empty and she was rude. That told me everything I needed to know.
