Someone told me that this was their favorite Chinese place so I decided to order from here. Definitely pretty big portions. I just couldn't get behind the smell and the distinct taste of the garlic scallop and shrimp. The vegetables had very distinct flavor that I couldn't stand for some reason. Otherwise the food was good. Can't comment on service or the ambiance. read more

I door dashed some food from here on a Saturday night and it was INCREDIBLE!!!! The food arrived promptly and hot too. We ordered the BBQ ribs, eggs rolls, chicken fried rice and orange chicken with a side of chow mein. I have no complaints about any of the food and would order from here or eat in here again in a heartbeat!! 10/10! read more

Wouldn't recommend it. My partner got me a chicken fried rice delivered. Idk if it is better to eat in the shop but It was very underwhelming. The rice had little to no flavor except maybe hint of oil. The chicken was super white. I ended up just refrying it and adding soysauce, oyster sauce, green onion, sesame oil. Literally no flavor. Ordered it cause I didn't feel good so I didn't want to cook but ended up cooking anyways to make it decent. read more

So, I've had delivery from here and it was okay......This time I went in to order.....NEVER AGAIN! First, at 2:50PM, I was told that it would be a minimum of 30 minute wait because the cooks just went to lunch......What? 1 or 2 cooks, as dinner orders are starting to come in??.........Okay, I'll patiently wait........ Noone in line, 1 other person just ordered in front of me....... Then "upon pick up", I ask for "House Mustard", after paying $52.10.....for 1 meal, 1 side of chicken fried rice (extra chicken=I'll pay extra for that).... They want to chard 50 cents??? Oh Come On....... DON'T GO TO ABACUS IN at 3509 W Thunderbird......just LK at how small the Egg Rolls are (in the photo provided).....8 for $15.50??........NEVER AGAIN! For $52.10........I didn't even get Chop Sticks......... DO NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY HERE!! read more

Not recommended and not coming back!! The food was mediocre at best. I asked for extra mushrooms and didn't think to ask if they were fresh. The server said there would be an extra cost and I said ok. When the dish came, it was loaded with slimy canned mushrooms. I also asked for no MSG and vegetarian and the sauce is virtually non-existent and what is there is pretty tasteless. Not recommended and not coming back and not taking one of my usually fave things from a Chinese restaurant- the leftovers. ‼ read more

So me and my friends did a "family" dinner tonight and got 4 orders of fried wonton. Normally these have at least a cream cheese filling or something, but not at Abacus. It's only the wonton crust. No filling, no nothing. What the he'll is that. Maybe a $1 worth of wonton pastry for $12? Definitely ripping people of. Paid $48+ for 4 orders of maybe $5 worth of empty wonton wrappers. read more

This has been our neighborhood go to for awhile. I keep trying others and come back to Abacus as the portions are generous and the food tastes fresh and not overdone/greasy, etc. I have to give them a shout out for saving the day on Christmas as I went through a very unfortunate experience with another restaurant and Abacus saved us. We had more than enough food for our crowd of people and it cost us less money. THANK YOU! Food is fresh, portions are large, and it is a great value. read more

Food was terrible. Ordered sweet and sour shrimp and it tasted horrible. I complained about it they only took 50% off.

The restaurant matched the ordinary and tired strip mall's vibe well. Not many choices for someone sensitive to MSG. Waiter seemed disinterested in our experience as never checked if wanted a soda pop refill which I would have happily taken because we were there chatting a while. Sweet and Sour Pork was a bit tough cubes but okay, and oddly the rice was mediocre with crunchy dry pieces, and I usually love rice. Not possible to get my favorite Kung Pao chicken and shrimp here because they use MSG in that sauce. The best things were the banana little pastry dessert brought at the end of the meal and the crab wontons. read more

I had not been back to Abacus Inn in a long time, the food was always so good. Our favorite was always their 'Family Combo's. Now I see online that the price's have soared way too much & can no longer afford to go there, plus they have changed the dishes within the family combo meal. Such a shame..... read more

Loved it!! Great old school atmosphere with friendly service. Ordered excellent sizzling rice soup, lemon chicken, fried rice, and Mongolian beef. All was really good, but the best part was the free dessert- Banana infused fried wonton in a crunchy sugar glazed coating- heavenly! We will be back! read more

Found this place after our old fave closed down. Food is absolutely fresh, great flavor and cooked to perfection. NOT dry, or overcooked like so many others. The service is always great. The gentleman we always get is very attentive and friendly, as is the hostess: If you want great food with fast and excellent service check this place out. Plus best crab puffs ever! read more

I love this place!! It's the best for family sharing or if you want leftovers. The food is fresh and really good.

I wasn't impressed with the food at all. I was disappointed. Wish the food was better. The Abacus Inn on 59th Ave and 101 is really bad. It used to be one of my favorites but new owners bought it and it's terrible which is really sad. A friend of mi e went to the 59th Ave location and there was a cockroach crawling across her table and her husband had a piece of metal in his food. It's a bummer. read more

meh. Ordered delivery so I cannot comment on cleanliness of the restaurant or parking or wait staff or stuff like that. I went with the Happy Family entree which is supposed to be chock full of beef, chicken, shrimp and scallops with mixed vegetables. Lots and lots and lots of carrots and leeks and baby corn. A couple thinly sliced pieces of beef, some tiny minced pieces of chicken, exactly two shrimp and I've no idea what happened to the scallops. Disappointing to say the least. The rice was hot. I got a fortune cookie. Those were the only good points of my meal. Really baffled by all the people raving about Abacus Inn as the premiere Chinese spot in the Valley. LOLOLOLOLOL. Yeah, I don't need order from here or visit this establishment any further. read more

Great food. Nice size portions. Loved the beef egg foo young and the beef fried rice. They even give you free dessert when you are finished with your meal. Recommend highly. read more

The only reason I stopped here was because Hing Loon on Glendale is temporarily closed. I ordered lemon chicken & pork fried rice to go from this place. I'm not a fan. I may come back one day and try something else. The meat used in the lemon chicken did not taste like chicken. The lemon sauce tasted really processed, maybe from a powder or can. The pork fried rice was fine, but this is just a matter or preference. The portions at Hing Loon are twice double the size for the same price. Also, this place uses plain pork whereas Hing Loon uses char siu. The lobby is clean, though. The service is also fast. They also have a rewards program. I do like that this place has an actual formal dining area, because Hing Loon has folding chairs and tables in their spot. read more

We have dined at Abacus for many years. We have never had a bad meal there. The lunch menu is extensive and offers a choice of soup, your entre choice, rice, a crab puff, an egg roll and most often, but not every time, a complimentary banana/honey puff as a parting dessert. The hot and sour soup is always our favorite. The Thai Volcano Beef is my favorite entre. The price for this lunch meal is very reasonable. My only complaint is that on holidays, or for dinner, even though the price increases, the soup, the crab puff, the egg roll and the banana/honey dessert do not come with the meal. Yes, you get more rice and the entre is a larger serving, but the whole experience is diminished. My New Year's resolution is to only eat there during lunch and never on holidays. read more

Awful after Mgr Noah left!!! He was so awesome!! Best food every time !! Since he left customer service terrible. Chef should be fired!!

Finally came in for a sit down meal instead of take out. We were seated right away (early on a Tuesday evening). My hubby order a Mai Tia and I order a glass of Pino Grigio. I tired his Mai Tai and asked if we could switch. Hey it's my Birthday week . The Poopoo as an appetizer. Everything was hot and delicious (egg rolls were average). For our mains: hubby ordered the Orange Chicken and I ordered the chicken & broccoli. Both came out hot. Tired my, yum, and then I tired hubbys OMG DELICIOUS. Our waiter was attentive and friendly. I also ordered the large Egg flower soup to go (lunches for the next few days. I used my Birthday reward for my free entree. Bill only came to $47 and we have enough leftovers for a few more mes read more

Just vile! We ordered for delivery but the orange beef was burnt and old with a nasty "sauce" in a cup. The egg rolls were greasy and stale. The peas in the unseasoned fried rice came to us frozen. It's definitely not what we expected after paying $50. Don't waste your time or money coming here! read more

We dine here a couple times a month, they are our favorite local Chinese restaurant. The employees are great to us and the service is very fast. We always get their hot tea, crab rangoons and wonton soup. My personal favorite dish is their kung pao chicken. So much better here than other local spots. This place is always consistent and we will keep coming back. read more

Very old school restaurant that has been at this location for years. Dine in is great with the pupu platter served on open flame which our grandkids love. The Dragon & Phoenix and The Sun Devil chicken are both family favorites. Take out is great as well but we prefer the yummy complimentary dessert at the end of dine in. read more

Finding a good Chinese restaurant is no easy task! Well I think I found my favorite one since moving to AZ!! The staff is always super friendly and the dining area is super clean. The lunch portion is plenty! And if you dine in you get egg drop soup with your lunch order! General Tso Chicken is my absolute favorite!! I will definitely be back soon! read more

My wife and I live near this place and we always love their food. However, after I put in a takeout order Saturday night and brought it home, my wife complained that the fried shrimp (she got the sweet and sour shrimp) had more breading than meat. She gave it to me because she couldn't eat the rest of it and she only enjoyed her chow mein. After taking a bite, I noticed it and I have to say it is unfortunate because this is our favorite Chinese cuisine. It's like literally eating fried grease! Please make an improvement on this ASAP as we appreciate your business. Thank you for your time. read more

Always fresh and delicious. It's our go to Chinese food every time and never disappointed.

Needed our Chinese food fix bad during this crazy world we are in right now. Ordered online. Arrived and our food was ready and on time! They have a great takeout system for COVID. Drove the 10 minutes home, it's takeout or delivery only and our food was still piping hot, packed in great plastic container and our order was correct! Food tasty, we don't recommend paying the extra for the chow mein but do recommend the Mongolian Beef! We've been coming to Abacus for years and for awhile it was hit or miss so glad to see them back to serving fantastic Asian food! read more

I was looking forward to eating here but one word describes the food...meh Wor wonton soup only had 3 wontons, and on top of that, they were very doughy with little meat. Potstickers we're not as good as Trader Joe's gyoza! Abacus special chicken was pretty good but the sauce was kind of bland. read more

The service was great, I wasn't that impressed with the quality of the food. It was decent at best. Some of the deep fried items like crab rangoons were overcooked. The spicy kung pao items were not spicy at all. read more

This location is inferior to the one in north Glendale. Egg rolls served at this location are frozen mush, but amazing at the other location. Other dishes seem...fine. read more
