Living in Crystal Lake for 5 years I second the thought on good chinese. There is a Thai restaurant by Best Buy that is pretty good.

Actuall, there is a better Thai place down the street calles krystal thai that is between the TJ Maxx and the Deals store. It was formerly knows as Siri Thai III.

Try Lao Szechuan in Palatine - long way from Crystal Lake, but worth it.

There is no Chinese restaurant on Crystal Lake that could even be rated as average. Most of the restaurants/buffets along Rt 14 are generally pretty bad.

The gourmet House, in an old Julie Ann's location is a pretty good white table cloth restaurant. There food is imaginative and pretty reliable.

The Plum Garden also prepares very good American-style Chinese food. Get there pretty early as it is one of the most crowded restaurants in McHenry.

If you are looking for food on the order of Chinatown in Chicago, you are bound to be disappointed.
