Mama Chang Fairfax Reviews from The Last Year
I think this was my third time dining at Mama Chang and it
I think this was my third time dining at Mama Chang and it just gets better every time. I came here with a group of 6 girls and we got 6 dishes, two being sides and we had to take leftovers home. Service here is extremely efficient and the food comes out very quickly. This is kind of the closest thing to din tai fung for me LOL
Worth the hype and great ambiance.
Mama Chang us located in a huge shopping center with ample parking. The restaurant itself was pretty big with ample seating but service was a bit slow on a Wednesday evening. We got the rib soup, pepper beef tenderloin, three cup chicken, snow pea tips, and pork belly with tea egg with were all very tasty. We especially liked the snow pea tip and the beef tenderloin which was both cooked and seasoned very well. We ended the meal with the citrus coconut pudding that was light and tasty--a good way to end the meal. A bit pricey but acceptable. Would definitely come again!
While dining at Mama Chang, we ordered the half Peking
While dining at Mama Chang, we ordered the half Peking duck, but it resembled more of a roast duck. Upon comparing our dish to various images of Peking duck, it appeared they might have substituted a cheaper duck but charged us the Peking duck price. It would have been preferable if they informed us if they ran out of the specific duck. Additionally, the service was slightly abrupt; despite having ample food remaining, we were asked in a hurried manner if we intended to order anything else. Upon further review of various other Peter Chang restaurants and events, it appears that such deception is not uncommon, as they have been known to replace items without informing the customer. This lack of transparency regarding substitutions is disappointing and diminishes the overall dining experience
Between 3 and 4 stars but lean towards 4 cause the food was
Between 3 and 4 stars but lean towards 4 cause the food was not bad. Ordered fried rice combination, seafood stone pot, Bao bbq dumplings, crab& pork soup dumplings. The price was not cheap but the food was not bad. I didn't feel completely ripped off, since the environment was nice and the food was decent. The thing that bothered me though was the seafood stone pot is kind of like a soup thing, there were no spoons except for a serving spoon. Maybe a bit awkward if sharing. Fried rice was good, but while I don't mind using chopsticks, I'm annoyed of having to use chopsticks for rice on a plate....Did ask for a spoon but wished I had maybe a bowl instead of a plate. Anyway, the dining experience could have been better with slightly better tools to eat with. Would expect a little better on that for the price paid but was not a big deal. It was not bad, I would go back with a friend that wanted to try the place; however, I would probably not be going back anytime soon. The food was not bad but it was not wow and it was on the expensive side.
Went for the Peking Duck! So good! Crispy scallion bubble!
Went for the Peking Duck! So good! Crispy scallion bubble! What the heck? Break that dude open! Like Chinese nachos! Service wad outstanding! Attentive but not overbearing. Very quiet inside. Modern chines modern. Thin woods snd sharp lines. Very nice!
Be ready for a wait if you don't have reservations.
But it goes pretty quickly. Food portions are good. It's good, I wouldn't say great. But given the slim true authentic Cantonese choices around the area & close to home, I'll definitely go here.
Came for a Valentine's dinner on a weekday night, and it
Came for a Valentine's dinner on a weekday night, and it was quite busy. Thankfully we made a reservation so we got seated quickly, highly recommend making a reservation beforehand to skip the busy queue. The inside of the restaurant was decorated with Chinese New Year decorations and was well-lit. We ordered the scallion bubble pancake which came with a curry sauce. The pancake was hot and crispy - I recommend ordering this if you want a light appetizer before the rest of your meal. The pork soup dumplings were full of flavorful broth, and the dumpling skin was thin yet didn't break easily. The dumplings were delicious on their own and even better paired with the sauce! We wanted to order a vegetable so we went with spicy garlic eggplant. Not too spicy but very flavorful - would recommend ordering a side of rice to accompany this dish. The beef rice noodles took a while to come out but I loved the bounciness of the noodles and the beef was nice and tender. I wish the noodles came with bean sprouts and more scallions, but I still recommend this dish! There are a lot more dishes on the menu and I will definitely be returning to try more!
The food here is very good.
The prices are not cheap but reasonable. Some things we didn't like: 1. Kitchen closes an hour before their closing time which is very odd. We came in at 845on a day where they close at 10pm. We ordered our food and it came out slightly before 9pm. We were asked to put in our dessert order because the kitchen is closing but we just barely started eating out entrees 2. They don't have good ventilation so you will end up smelling like food 3. The bubble pancake was interesting but quickly becomes stale if you don't eat it fast enough. The sauce served with it has an odd flavor and is served cold which we didn't care for What we ordered that we really enjoyed: 1. Dry fried cauliflower. This was my favorite dish. They are very generous with the Szechuan peppers so be prepared to have your whole mouth numb. A must order 2. Gamghood Friend chicken - light battering and very crispy 3. Hand pulled noodles - they really do a very nice job with this. The noodles are the perfect texture.

AMAZING! Best Chinese food you've ever had! Wait staff are wonderful. Our family loves the food and we come quite often.
When we first entered Mama Chang's restaurant we couldn't
When we first entered Mama Chang's restaurant we couldn't get over how loud it was. They need something on the ceiling to deaden the loud noise. No ambiance AT ALL. It felt like a high school cafeteria. We ordered two dishes that we thought were pretty safe, mine was beef tenderloin with broccoli and my husband got the pork belly. I did not get beef tenderloin. The beef was fatty and chewy. I don't know if they know this but there is hardly any fat whatsoever in a beef tenderloin. My husband's pork belly was breaded and then had a soggy sauce on it. Both dishes were overly salty. We were given a large dish with only a bread dish size plate to work with. I asked for a cup of tea but was told they did not have tea. We only saw the waitress when she took our order and when she brought the check. We were asked if we wanted a container and we said "no thanks". All of the above for a grand total of $80. Needless to say, we won't be back.''
Quality Chinese in Fairfax
This restaurant has many authentic Chinese dishes as well as the fare you would expect to see at an American Chinese restaurant. The service is always fast and efficient and everything is always well executed. Recommend the duck egg roll appetizer.
BEST CHINESE ever!!
Second time eating here and it’s the best Chinese food I’ve EVER had. The first time was with 5 people and we shared numerous dishes and all were delicious. Today, I took a friend and he and I split Lychee Pepper Chicken (saw a plate go by and had to ask what it was!!) and combination fried rice. Friend also got Sweet Sour soup and said “best ever.” I ordered a fried rice to go and my wife and daughter agreed—best ever. It’s a bit pricey at $18 but it must be two pounds of food!!! They both ate two bowls and there’s still a ton left for later! I can’t wait to return!!
Different Dim Sum experience
Spacious restaurant in Fairfax that features an extensive dim sum menu. I would describe it as a slight upgrade to the typical dim sum fare in terms of presentation but at a slightly higher price point. There are no dim sum carts here and there is a big team of waiters who bring the food out to the tables. Some of the dim sum orders come with fresh and tasty bok choy on the side. Soup pork dumplings ($8) and pork & shrimp shumai ($7) were good. The turnip cake with XO paste was ok. Beef chow fun ($16) is tasty but a bit pricy. Pork and century egg porridge was quite tasty. The Yangzhou meatball stew ($18) can be skipped as it was essentially 3 giant meatballs but bunch of filing and crunchy stuff inside each one that didn’t quite accentuate the enjoyment factor. We didn’t order the scallion bubble pancake but saw others enjoy this unique appetizer. If you like the more traditional dim sum places with the carts, at a lower price point. then this may not be your place.

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
What happens if no one accepts your bid?

Getting a Refund
I'm reaching out for some guidance on a recent experience I had with a Resy reservation at 4Charles purchased Appointment Trader.
Upon arriving for my reservation, I was surprised to find that there was no record of the booking under the name provided in my AT purchase. I've already initiated a refund, but I haven't received any updates except the suggestion to check my purchase details and open a refund inquiry.
If anyone has successfully navigated a similar situation and could share their insights, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.
