CATHAY CHOW MEIN - Minneapolis

My family and I have been going to this place for years! We often get chow mein, egg foo young, and fried rice. In our experience, the food has remained consistent and the people there are always friendly. My dad likes their egg foo young best out of all the other places he's tried it at because of it's dark tasting and savory gravy. The chow mein has a very light gravy by contrast and we often spruce it up with their slightly spicy sweet and sour sauce. Good food. Generous sizes.

I love Cathay Chow Mein. I'm 33 years old and I've been going there my entire life. My dad went there when he was a kid and still goes there to this day. He's 72. Great selection. Great sweet and sour sauce. Every order gets free wontons. And everything is cooked fresh. It's just a little hole-in-the-wall that's easy to miss but it is well worth your time.

One of my favorite gems in the wall! I’ve been a customer since I was 11 years old. The food is fresh, good and always hot! I usually get the large chicken fried rice and add shrimp, FIRE!!

The best lo mein in Minnesota! This place is a legend! My grandparents were regulars here when they were raising my mom, and I've been eating there for 34 years. That's how long they've been our families favorite take out.

The absolute best Chinese American take out in the Twin Cities. For over 40 years my family has considered this the benchmark for Chinese take out. Whenever our extended family visits from either coast Cathay Chow Mein is always a must for them. This is Minneapolis at its best! The Cathay Special is our family favorite, and they have always exceeded our exceptions. Thank you Thank you
