We love Asian Spice and order takeout from here 3-4 times a month. As a family that needs gluten-free options, it's one of our go-to spots because there are actually several things on the menu we can enjoy. My personal favorite is the chicken chow mein. I order it almost every time and it never disappoints. The food is consistently good, the portions are generous, and our orders are always ready when expected. Definitely one of our favorite takeout places in Tucson. read more

Old school Chinese diner. Not fancy, but def fast. Not sure if the economy is causing a drop in food quality or if there have been changes in recipes or cooks but it has been noticeable. The dish that used to be my go to was the ginger chicken, but the chicken quality is noticeably less tender, on the stringy side. So I switched to order other dishes like their tofu dishes or an occasional Mongolian meat dish. Again, the meat & sauce similarities (hard to tell them apart) are noticeable. It's still a decent place for a fast meal or easy takeout but I find myself looking elsewhere for Chinese food. Their fried rice was always basic, but now it's like it got hit with some soy sauce & little else Prices have gotten a bit higher (like they do :) though they're still cheaper than many) but quality has gone down a notch or more. Not saying I'll never be back, but it's not on my bi weekly dont wanna cook lets eat out rotation. Oh well. read more

Absolutely amazing customer as soon as you walk in the door. The place has a really nice vibe, I love being so close to the chefs. Then to top it off the food was amazing, I had egg rolls, orange chicken, fried rice, and egg flower soup and it was amazing, I cleaned every plate. The dinner special was also a great price. Some of the best Chinese food I've had since I moved to Tucson. read more

So happy to have a delicious Chinese spot nearby that has daily lunch specials and a wonderful variety of dishes. I've dined in and gotten takeout several times, and the food is delicious both ways. Service is friendly. There aren't a ton of booths, so you may have to wait, but they're quick and efficient. I love the cashew chicken, sesame chicken, and moo goo gai pan. The fried rice is the perfect complement, and the egg flower soup and egg rolls are tasty too. Don't skip the hot mustard, it's the real stuff. Even the Thai tea is great! The lunch special is an unbeatable value and has earned me as a loyal customer. Can't wait to keep trying more options from the menu. read more

What a terrific place to get Chinese/Asian food. I usually do pickup as there is limited seating. The portions are very big and perfect to share with a friend. read more

One of my friends recommended this place but I don't live close I finally got the chance to try it! I'd say one of the top Chinese food places in Tucson. I'd rank it #2 next to Fatman kitchen. The space is small they maybe have 4-5 tables. We came right before a rush but it was super speedy service! We had crab puffs and they were well done, super fresh and the sauce was great. They put green onions in which added really nice flavor. My husband and I shared orange chicken with fried rice I was really happy they didn't even up charge us for fried rice because most places do. The batter was great, crispy and moist chicken inside. The sauce was flavorful and they put orange peel in the sauce which I feel like added a nice flavor on top. Overall this is some of the best Chinese food I've found. A real gem! read more

This is our go - to spot for Chinese Takeout. It is consistently quality and the staff members are always very nice and prompt. I almost always get the Mongolian Shrimp but enjoy other dishes I have gotten including the Eggplant. Comfort food! read more

Shrimp Fried rice and egg drop soup were good Orange chicken left me a little wanting Service was on point though especially for being pretty packed Tight quarters inside but still very nice read more

Update. Returned to try the food when it was not so busy. As far as Americanized Chinese food goes this was exceptionally good. Specifically the sauces with distinct flavor not just soy and corn starch brown gravy. Large portion sizes. Veggies done just right. Quick attentive service. Still would like to see beer and wine added. read more

Don't let the tiny size deceive you! They pack service and good food in a tiny space. Friendly and timely service by a collaborative team keeps patrons satisfied. We had a lunch portion of General Tao with Sweet and Sour soup and Kung Pao chicken. Everything was flavorful. read more

We came here with our friends who really love it and we were underwhelmed. The food was just okay, nothing to brag about and we haven't been back when there are so many other choices. The service was good, the food came out slower than a typical Asian restaurant. The restaurant is clean. read more

This is not the type of restaurant where you need any more ambience than watching the food preparation a few feet from your table. After probably more than a dozen meals there, I've never been disappointed in the quality of the food or the service. It has a "no-nonsense" interior that suits the purpose just fine. I drive 17 miles each way to eat there if I'm not in the area for other reasons. I almost hesitate to recommend the place so it doesn't become popular to the point that seating becomes more of an issue. Smile here. read more

This place is good, they have really yummy vegetarian options. They forgot something once and they gave me a 20 dollar gift voucher so it's a great local asian place. It's a bit loud inside so I would definitely recommend takeout. read more

Service was fast and friendly. The food was served hot and promptly. It was delicious. Veggies were crisp. Everything was quite delicious. Best kung pao chicken I have had in a very long time. Doesn't look like much from the outside. But do come in!!! read more

We have only ever picked up, but the prices are well worth it, especially for the dinner specials! We love the cashew chicken, egg rolls, and egg drop soup! The service is efficient and this place is a great little hole-in-the-wall vibes that I really enjoy. We will be back! read more

Our go to lunch spot when in town. Great Food every time ! Great service always! Beef or Chicken and Broccoli are my favorite. Cream Cheese Rangoons and Egg Flower soup are great. read more

This place is well oiled machine. They have a few booths and capacity is probably less than 30 customers to dine in. They were cranking out to-go orders and serving customers quickly. I got seated, a beverage, a soup, and my entrée within 10 minutes. There was a constant flow of customers coming in and out. So the ambiance is small, family run strip mall fast Chinese food. The food is good. I think this is a place that does mostly take-out orders. If you're near Silverbell and Ina check this place out. read more

First choice on Asian food every time. CONSISTENT! always fresh, always delicious. Literally every dish is great and the lunch special is so much food and so affordable read more

The fast stuff 1. Willing to make modifications. The tofu with vegetables came with a white sauce. We asked, "Can we change to brown?" DONE. 2. Garlic intolerance - So they said tofu has garlic, and we can remove that. The Mongolian Shrimp their chili paste has garlic. They let us know. However, they offered fresh chilis instead. Wow, that's going the extra mile. DONE. 3. Service is elite. The place is small, like six booths. They do a lot of takeout. 4. The food itself A. Mongolian Shrimp was spicy and great. Lots of shrimp tasty with green onions. It's a schezwan dish. Recommend. B. The tofu dish didn't work for me. It was bland. Needed some heat. There are plenty of veggies, and I suspect the removal of garlic probably hurt. Tofu was solid. We will be coming back. Good food. Fair prices. And service that wants you as a happy customer. read more

Asian Spice - Shrimp Chop Suey - Chinese Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

I called to get takeout here on Christmas evening right before closing and Angelo helped me thru the menu and navigating my strange dietary needs so patiently and kind. When I got there everything was done great and the food and service were great! Good dinner deal! read more

Very odd. The food here is decent, but def not Traditional Chinese. However large portions are great. The food is greasy.

Stopped in for lunch. The dining room was packed. I ordered the Mongolian beef lunch special. It was less than $11 which surprised me a bit. Until I opened the bag and revealed a pile of rice and a tiny bit of meat and onions. I was still hungry after eating every morsel. I would have rather paid a few dollars more for a properly sized portion. I'm not a big eater, the portion size was tiny. The beef was very good. I just wish I didn't leave hungry. read more

My family and I order from Asian Spice quite often and we have never been disappointed. The food is consistently delicious and always prepared as we've requested. I would recommend ordering out instead of dining in, as the space is pretty small. Their hot and sour soup is the best I've had and my favorite dish is their Cashew Chicken. You also can't go wrong with the crab puff and spring roll appetizers. The owners are very kind and generous as well! read more

This restaurant has been here for a bit and everyone loves it. I personally love their soup specially when I am under the weather. I love their garlic eggplant, the noodles, and beef broccoli. There are so many to choose from and they cook it right there. It is not pre cooked. The owners and employees are so kind and nice. This is our go to restaurant! read more

This was recommended by a friend so we decided to give it a go, we were in the area. Checked in for lunch and there was a 10 minute wait. It has very limited seating and seems most of their business is take-out. We ordered their lunch specials, the Orange and Sesame Chicken which came with Hot n Sour Soup a roll and steamed rice at very reasonable prices. We were surprised! The Hot n Sour Soup was delicious, tart and tasty and the Sesame and Orange Chicken both on the very good side. Of course steamed rice is steamed rice. The portions were plentiful, surprising for $9.95. The wait was short, the service very good, all in all a great place for lunch. We will definite back for dinner and made sure to take home their menu for to go items in the future. read more

Asian Spice - Chinese Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

This place is great! Probably the best Asian food I've had on the north side and I feel like I have a high bar (from Seattle).

Great food, great service . Will order there again and again. Small dine in area but nice.

I've been eating here for about four years and was so happy to see they made Yelp's top 100 Chinese Restaurants. It is way better than most of the Chinese restaurants around Tucson. Their kung pao tofu, garlic eggplant, and Singapore curry rice noodles are my recurring orders and I really love that they will make my chow fun vegan on request. It is also really cool that they offer a discount for veterans and service members. Even when they are slammed, you will always be greeted by a friendly staff member and they are very quick to move orders along. read more

Great takeout or dine in. It's a small place but if you don't mind that you can eat in. I always order takeout, I hav r not had a meal that I didn't enjoy! Highly recommend! read more

Smells SO GOOD!! We couldn't wait to try! We ordered Ginger Green Onion Beef & Singapore Curry Noodles along with Egg Rolls and Crab Puffs appetizer. Our waiter was friendly and everyone was so nice. He recommended the Singapore dish and said the green onion choice was also one of his favorites. The Vegetable Spring Rolls were crunchy and fresh! My husband, who isn't an egg roll type guy, loved it! The Crab Puffs were nice and crunchy with smooth crab mixture - delicious! The Ginger Green Onion Beef dish had such tender beef cooked perfectly with the green onions and ginger flavors - Yum! The Singapore Curry Rice Noodles were a nice surprise. Something we never tried before and we were pleased! The curry flavors was spot on but with a hint of Asian flair! It came with Shrimp and chicken which both proteins were perfectly cooked and not dried out at all. The noodles were soooo good! Def a dish I would order again! Yum! We would for sure go back! read more
