Portions are so large they would qualify as two separate meals at other restaurants. Giving customers more than their money s worth has been the philosophy of owners Irene and Chin Min Lo since opening their first Rising Sun carryout operation in Frankfort in 1981. All three carry the Rising Sun name, but the sparkling jewel remains the Mokena location. The menu is almost as massive as the portions served. About the only flaw is the children s menu, offering just three items, two of which are chicken.
Prices are very reasonable.
Service is prompt. Appetizers are delivered within five minutes of ordering, while entrees are ready in 15 to 20 minutes. On a recent Saturday evening, my wife and I made a return visit to the Rising Sun, one of several we have made since the establishment opened three years ago. We re also loyal carryout fans. By the time we finished with our humongous appetizers my wife had crab Rangoon, I had won-ton soup with noodles and we shared a pair of massive egg rolls we had room left in our stomachs for only a few bites of our entrees.
