This is the closest thing you're getting to Taiwan in Arizona right now. Service -- 10/10 You order at the counter, which threw us off for about two seconds, then we realized it just works. The owner is a super nice Taiwanese guy and the whole place feels chill and genuine. Deliciousness -- 10/10 We ordered a bunch of snacks and I'm telling you right now, the deep-fried stuff is non-negotiable. The popcorn chicken is life-altering. I don't even want to exaggerate but it actually changed my standards. The drinks are also dangerous. Smoothies and slushes both hit way harder than expected. Overall Score: 10/10 I would come back. I would bring friends. I would think about this food at 1 a.m. Definitely Unofficial Food Critic approved.

Food is always so tasty. We have tried a variety of…read moredumplings, soups, and entrees and enjoyed each. Service is always courteous, prompt, and attentive. As soon as you walk in the door they immediately get you seated at a table when there's availability. Menu is extensive, offering entrees we are not familiar with along with many of the usual suspects. And everything is served up quickly. They've recently posted an illustration on the walls about the dumplings, advising how to eat them so you don't burn yourself or your tongue. A little too late for me, but it made me chuckle. Each item we have tried has been fresh and delicious. I suppose we have gotten hooked on a few of our favorites and frequently order those items. Chous has become a favorite and certainly worth the wait when there is one. In the mood for Chinese food, specifically Northeastern Chinese cuisine? Or do you have the urge for delicious, homemade dumplings? Craving bold, hearty flavors? Chous fills that niche.

With rising food prices, I thought it was a great value. The service was excellent, which can sometimes be hit or miss at small casual spots, and the ambience was nice. The broth and ingredients were flavorful, and I appreciated the sauces available at the table. The fire-broiled soup was aromatic without being overpowering. The food did take a little while to come out, and the broth was slightly gritty. Maybe possibly due to the soup I chose. I also noticed the bowls are shallow and packed with meat and vegetables, so there wasn't much actual soup. When I asked about it, I was told additional broth would be an extra charge, which was a bit disappointing. That said and regardless, everything tasted fresh and delicious, and I would definitely come back.

I also liked the option to add additional sides to add to the hotpot. As for me, their mixed pot of mushroom hotpot was perfect. It tasted healthy as there were ton of mushrooms with many varieties.

The dining room was very clean and service was excellent. Will return to try more things. We're eyeing their pumpkin hotpot next. They also had the stinky tofu hotpot on the menu. Highly recommend!!

They offer a sort of cook-it-yourself experience where you order up to two kinds of broths, and they bring them to you in a large pot that goes over your tabletop grill. You receive meats from your server, and have access to a self-serve bar of vegetables, noodles, seafood, and spices. Because it is so customizable you can really experiment with flavors and come up with some delightful combinations. I was a big fan of the brisket and octopus in the spicy broth, and my fiancée enjoyed the pork belly in the sweet broth. Both pots also complemented each other quite well! My favorite part of the ambiance was the privacy curtains. Because tables are all next to each other I imagine it would be easy to see what other diners are doing, but the curtains add a sense of privacy that made us feel like we were almost dining alone. Our service was also excellent. We had several people working in the restaurant come by during the meal to make sure we had all the broth, water, and meats that we wanted. Definitely try Jin Shabu! It is delicious and well worth the money spent!

Cons: The soup bases are very salty while the flavor didn't quite meet expectations (I.e. mala spicy broth could've been spicier, and the tonkatsu broth didn't really taste like tonkotsu) Overall, this is a solid hotpot restaurant!

Chow fun had the wok hay ( wok air that makes food taste good) and thick slices of velveted beef slices. Pork and chive dumpling and XLB were juicy and moist and delicious with the ginger black vinegar chili oil sauce. I really like the food here and staff moves fast. Great place for a quick lunch.

The staff was all really friendly which surprised me because I swear they never stopped! They were busy but still kind and attentive! We ordered the spicy dumplings and the Hong Kong Fried Rice! The Boas were good, but the dough was a little thicker than I'm used to. So I felt full rather quickly! The fried rice however, 10/10 NO NOTES!!! Best fried rice I think I've ever had!! Totally worth the drive. Will be back for sure!!

Tip: if you go during lunch time, they offer free tea (cold black/green tea) What's new: they have a new soup! Spicy pickled mustard green fish! What we ordered: Thai and the spicy picked green fish soup! Both were excellent. They gave a generous amount of fish and the flavors were always consistent and spot on. It's definitely one of my top favorite spots. I hope they can expand toward Chandler/gilbert area.

For starters, this is a review specifically for the DoorDash version of kung fu noodles. I actually…read morejust realized that I'm not even sure if this is the correct location but since I live in Gilbert, I'm going to assume this was the one that was delivered to me. Either way, The food we received was the bomb.com! We were hanging out and watching movies on a Saturday while my lady was nursing a bit of a cold. She wanted something in the chicken noodle soup family, and after a bit of back-and-forth, we decided to look for Ramen or pho. Now that's where the start started, but that's clearly not where it ended. After a couple of different searches, we found kung fu noodle And simply picked it based on a combination of the pictures, the reviews and the fact that they have several noodle soup options that looked really appealing. Ultimately, we ended up ordering the spicy beef noodle soup, and the house special noodle soup along with their dumplings, crab Rangoon's and fried rice. Now, usually I skip straight to the review of the food at this point, but I have to give them one additional compliment. This place goes the extra mile in terms of making sure the delivery experience is Extra level. Starting with their packaging, which, for someone who is infatuated with great design, they really do a great job of driving home the full brand experience! Not only were the package is aesthetically, pleasing and artistic in some cases, but they were also very functional as well with all of the plastic containers having sealed lids that had to be broken open for the first time by us. This was just extra assurance that our food wasn't tampered with on the ride from the restaurant to the house. In addition, the food was extremely fresh and hot, even the crab Rangoon's, which in some cases can be delivered with that wet, gummy effect because of the steam and condensation that accumulates inside of many of the take-home containers that you receive from most Asian food places. I wouldn't argue that this is the kind of containers that you would necessarily keep around as home Tupperware, but the bag that they sent everything in definitely feels like it's gotta reuse or two in it. Overall, we were really happy with the quality of the food as both Soups were portion wise enough for two consecutive days of meals. Same thing with the fried rice, which was really good We got the shrimp version and it had plenty of shrimp and veggies in addition to really fresh rice. Lastly, while I'm not specifically a dumpling guy, I decided to try these because the pictures looked really good on the website. And I can't lie, these were definitely really Good dumplings. Overall, we are looking forward to trying to spot out in person, but if we have to order again before we make it in person, that's what it is going to be!

This does make it a little easier to take any leftovers to go because you can grab a lid later. The inside is very clean. You likely won't see too many other guests eating in as most get takeout. Service is frank and prompt. Ever since some of our favorite long time local hand pulled noodle places closed over the years, my partner and I have been on the search for any kind of replacement. Unfortunately, Kung Fu Noodles does not live up to that for us. You have to approach this restaurant with takeout in mind. Portion sizing is pretty generous. The food itself is very okay. With so many other takeout places to compete in the area, my partner and I likely won't return.
