I have been wanting to try this for a while, and I'm so happy I did! It was so good for a good price, even the picky eaters love it. I would definitely recommend. read more

Been coming here for 5 yrs. Nothing beats their chicken lo mein. You don't even think about the price!!! for less than 30 dollars u can have lunch for 4 to 5 people!!! Some says that their flavor has decreased? --pls tell it to the owner or the chef, it will help with patrons like us, or new comers. I had one time asked them to add more teriyaki sauce for my order and spice which they did. From now on when I order that item they know to put extra flavoring. Sometimes our taste buds get used to flavors and need a little more to get that same flavor were so used to. it's scientifically proven that the more we eat the same thing the brain we crave more of that flavor, :) read more

Chen Wok - Yummy! - Chinese Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Bland tasteless food, even when called Kung Pao. Takeout order was screwed up, and missing an item. The takeout containers leaked badly, you had to spoon sauce out of bottom of plastic bags to make the food edible. Ate just enough to not be really hungery, if it was better would eat more. The worst Chinese I have ever had! read more

This place is a gem, I've almost tried everything here except for the pork dishes b/c I'm not big on that. I order takeout almost once a week at this spot, love it. read more

First time at Chen and Wok. Portions are great! Food tastes good and good customer service. I'll be back for sure to try more. Ordered the orange chicken lunch special with Lo Mein. I would differently recommend! read more

Chen Wok - Orange chicken with lo mein Large. - Chinese Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Really like this place. My first time here, for lunch. Chose the lunch special: Lemon Chicken and substituted white rice with the vegetable Lo Mein. Everything was so delicious. Customer service was great as well; the woman working the cash register was just really nice. I decided to grab myself a drink as well; Total came to $7.82. Which is also a plus :3 Happy new year! read more

Chen Wok - Chinese Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I appreciate that they have their own delivery service, rather than getting gouged by a third-party service. Three entrees plus spring rolls was $35 with tip and all fees, which gave us two generous supper's worth of food. We tried the sweet & sour tofu, which was bland, and the spring rolls were bland plus mushy inside--neither dish not worth getting again. We liked the vegetable mushu and the vegetable lo mein, with the noodles being our favorite dish. Greasy comfort food, but tasty. Generous portions. To our surprise, the delivery bag included a bunch of plastic-wrapped extras of soy sauce, mustard, fortune cookies, so be sure to tell them if you don't need any extra items. read more

Oh my God I love this restaurant! The food is so savory and absolutely delicious, they have been so accommodating. If I either have to move or I am no longer near this restaurant I will drive to come get this food the biggest thing for me next to the food being delicious is the wonderful service and kindness they offer here read more

good food. I didn't have the best customer service but I'm complicated. I'd recommend the food :) read more

Chen Wok - Chicken Lo mein is really good! - Chinese Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

One plus for Chen Wok is the employees actually speak an Asian language which I assume was Chinese. That also might have been creating a problem as the lady taking my order seemed a little confused about things. She did take my order, clearly, I thought for teryaki chicken. I did ask her twice for chop sticks. When when she gave me my tray there was a fork. I finally convinced her that I really did want those chop sticks. When my order finally came up they asked me for my number which I was never given. It was determined that was okay that I didn't get a number and them she said you did order chicken with vegetables. It wasn't what I ordered but decided it would be more trouble than it was worth to get what I really wanted. My dinner was pretty bland but that was okay because I took what they gave me. Surprising thing is that there was more chicken than vegetables, usually the opposite of what one might expect. Overall there wasn't much flavor and some gristle in the chicken but it filled me up. Overall that is the objective when one sits down to eat, isn't it? If I had gotten what I had asked for and it had been about the same, I would have put two stars. read more

Absolutely disgusting food today I bought chicken curry with fried rice and I found a fingernail or toenail inside my food the Mexican lady or Chinese woman the fat lady she was very Disrespectful toward me on the phone because I told her about my food she say no refund she knows me because I don't tip her five dollars that's why she Put the toenail finger nail in my food because I don't tip her money so she Dogged my food Eat there at your own risk Absolutely disgusting calling the health department On Monday very disgusting Chen & Wok food taste like horseshit read more

Chen and Wok has really changed in food quality from years ago. The service is good but the food is sooooo so. First off the outside is a bit smelly, it smells like a trash can. This is the main reason I stopped going here for years...but I ordered delivery and probably should have passed and had a Polar pop instead. The honey dipped chicken either comes soggy with too much honey and soft wings or dry wings with hardly any honey at all, and the chicken tastes very low in quality. The shrimp fried rice has large shrimp and would be better if it weren't well done with 4 shrimp total. The house Lo mein is a hit or miss but in terms of flavor it's the dish I would choose. The egg rolls are also pretty tasty. All in all Chen Wok just may be the best Chinese food you've ever tasted...as long as you're not a long time customer that can compare it to the glory days. read more

Chen Wok - The menue. ..they went up a bit - Chinese Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I have loved this place since I was a kid. My father owns a company in the are and we used to go to lunch all the time. We still come in and we love the customer service and the food is awesome! Good portions and isn't over priced. read more

I called in my order for Shrimp Fried Rice. The lady told me that it would be about 20 minutes. I took my time in getting there, it was my first visit. Upon arrival I found Chen & Wok to be a small, take-out Chinese Food Restaurant. They did have a few tables if you wanted to eat there, but most people were picking up orders that were called in. My Shrimp Fried Rice was wonderful!!!! It had a fair amount of shrimp and the rice was not over cooked. It took me 3 sittings to finish the Large order. read more

This was my first order after recently moving here and I'm quite disappointed I love fried wonton but idk what that is inside it why is it pink? Why so little? The lunch special was good even though it was mostly onions. I got my boyfriend the sweet and sour chicken which he didn't like the fact they put the sauce on top of everything instead of on the side like we're used to. read more

Not covid or any other restaurant can beat those Lunch Special prices or quality. Its a neighbor staple that will forever be apart of my life and will continue to support. read more

If you are looking for an establishment with fine linen and silver, pass this place up. If you want excellent food for a very good price, this is your ticket. A very small establishment that caters heavily to he carry out crowd, there are a few tables for those who prefer to eat in. Food is served in styrofoam.. I did mention this was a No-Frills place right? I had House Chicken, and my partner had Mongolian beef. The food is excellent you can hear the clatter of the wok as they quickly prepare your meal. I'm not often on this side of town, but when I am, I know where I will go for good quality, low cost fare. read more

Looking for a Chinese restaurant in my new neighborhood. Reviews gave it favorable marks. The menu carried the usual staple of most Chinese fast locations. I ordered Kung pow Chicken, It smelled wonderful. Upon getting it home my "pint" of Kung pow was nearly HALF onions. I included a picture to share my disappointment read more

Chen Wok - The onions in Kung pow chicken - Chinese Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Ordered by phone from outside the restaurant and meal was done in less than 10 minutes. Our order was lemon chicken with white rice and Kung Pao Two (shrimp and Chicken). Delicious and fresh made at an incredibly low price. Portions were enormous and made 4 dinners! Sweet woman behind the counter. There's a reason they're open nearly 30 years! read more

So consistent for 15+ years. Their House Special Chicken is the best thing you will ever taste. It is quite possibly the most savage American style Chinese dish ever attempted. It's so savage, that it must be expressed in a French accent...Sauvage! read more

It was ok, Kung pao beef was really overcooked and so were the the lomain noodles. Service was good, but food was not

Update 2/21/2018 after a bad experience my work landed me in the area so I remember how good the lunch special was. So I said screw it let's give it a shot. People my exp was a total 360 degree the lunch special is were it's at. Orange chicken large w/ lomein noodle and side order of pint white rice. It was very good about $9.00 that was a decent price and quality. My last exp I ordered dinner after the lunch special so my bill was super high like 50 plus dollars and matching that price to the taste didn't match up. I recommend using the lunch specials to your advantage. The basic pricing without special can be extreme in$ to feed a family. read more

Where do I begin? The spring roll was fried in old oil, it tasted like kerosene. The chicken is dry and tough as if it was cooked a day or more before. This is not a once in a while observation but every time I've eaten their food. It's ordered from our office, I don't make the decision to order from this restaurant which is unfortunate. People without the ability to recognize what old rancid oil tastes like are deciding this is good Chinese food. Their judgement is clouded by the price and portion size. read more

Cheap, fast, tasty Chinese. Have been going for years. It can get really busy so allow time for your order or call ahead. They also do delivery. Recommend if your in the area and not feeling cooking. read more

Been going here for years and have no complaints as of yet. Good lunch time food and they make your order pretty quick.

I've been eating here for 30 years! This place is amazing and dollar for dollar the absolute best! It's casual dining not a nice restaurant but it's a decent place to sit down. We love this place! read more

I've never dined at this restaurant, but my in laws love it so much that they order to go all the time. I wasn't feeling very good and I requested if they can pick me up egg drop soup and teriyaki chicken from Chen & Wok. It really was what I wanted and needed. The flavors are okay, the portions are generous, and it is cheap and quick. read more

Nothing to write home about... nothing to leave home for. Not that great tasting. Chow main had no taste. Orange chicken was good, Mongolian beef was not good at all. read more

7th St & Maryland is vastly different than 19th Ave & Northern. 7th St & Maryland is far superior .

My husband and I have been trying various Chinese food places near us , in search of the best. I would give 4 stars but my husbands favorite entree Kung Pao chicken was not good. The chicken was pretty fatty and really soft and not very spicy. I loved the Mongolian beef. Egg roll was decent. Fried rice, my favorite part about Chinese food was just okay. My husband said it had to much of an egg taste. read more

There are basically two schools of Chinese food; upscale, fresh ingredients, non-artery clogging Chinese food and hole in the wall, greasy, guilty-pleasure Chinese food. This is the latter. On a scale of this kind of Chinese food, it's perfect. Big portions, easy on the wallet, fast, convenient, it's got everything. But because there's no different category, 4 stars will have to do. read more

I have to say this place is a for sure staple in Phoenix because they have really good food. They have great service and delivery is exceptional. For those that had a bad experience and found Chen wok rude , have you ever thought you just might be too sensitive?? Just a thought and the review about MSG...its against the law to use msg and this business I know for sure does not use msg, Just for the record. I love Chen Wok the place has provided good food for decades here in Phoenix and that's a fact. Good people that care about providing quality food to Phoenix locals ... I personally thank you and you will not be disappointed. read more

I ordered over 60.00 worth of food. Luch specials orange chicken. I received almond chicken. When I called the store to let them know that they made a mistake the woman argued and refused to correct it. I've been going to this site for 2 years and often have lunch delivered for my colleagues at the work place. but after today I will never come here again add I will be sure too inform my co workers who eat here of my experience as well. read more

This place is absolutely the WORST!!! Terrible customer service. They mess up your order and then argue with you about THEIR MISTAKE!!! Over priced mediocre food and the worst customer service all mean that this place should be AVOIDED AT ALl COSTS!!!! read more

Too often my enthusiasm for Chinese food detracts from my ability to say anything meaningful about the establishment. I order, get food, eat food, rant and rave about food, find out that nobody shares my opinion of said food, rinse, repeat. With nearly identical menus and service, I was having a hard time finding something interesting, meaningful, and most importantly funny to say about any of these places. It was starting to cramp my style, and I feared that Chinese food would prove to be the knight that slayed the mighty Jetta Dragon. I bet you all pegged me as the unicorn type, huh. Chen and Wok broke what could have been an otherwise endlessly repeating cycle of pointless reviews by being popular with people I knew and giving me something to criticize them for; their service. First let me start off this review by laying down the obligatory (though not undeserved) lip service. The food is pretty fucking fantastic. Ever since my coworkers and I discovered their menu at the bottom of our "take out menu" drawer, we've been eating that shit like it's going out of style. Normally just the sight of steamed rice makes me flail my arms and scream in tongue, but after that spicy kung pao or house chicken hits me and my stomach balloons with burn and gas, I'm grateful that I'm not being tempted with a side of lo mein. I usually keep a shamrock mmmmmmilk nearby whenever I order anything denoted on the menu as "spicy". Once I experimented with chocolate milk. Turns out chocolate milk and kung pao sauce get along like leather daddies and mountainbike enthusiasts; amicable yet jarringly indifferent. Look up any takeout menu from any other Chinese place, pick five random items. C&W has it, and its fucking DELICIOUS. The food is so good that it warrants the often mindfuckingly tedious task of dealing with the staff. For now, at least. I admit off the bat that I have a skewed perspective. In my group of co-workers I am the official "C&W ambassador." I can tell the difference between chow mein and lo mein so apparently that qualifies me to be a fucking interpreter of the culture. One day not too long ago the IT department managed to pull ourselves away from Japanese Bug Fights and Star Wars done entirely in Terminal long enough to decide that we were hungry, we wanted Chinese, and that although Jetta was in no mood to be yelled at over the phone, she was a bitch and deserved it anyway. I called in the order and was greeted by my friend Asian Lady With The Inappropriately Loud Voice, who after rushing me through my order and snapping at me when I tried to explain (for the fifth time now) where our office was located, would interrupt my giving of the credit card number by reciting numbers that in no shape, way, or form resembled the ones I gave her. You know, to keep me on my toes. One of the people on my order really wanted chow mein with his orange chicken. Chinese restaurants' legendary personal grudge with special orders and substitutions aside, I thought that if we just asked for some on the side and not substituted for their flavorless white rice, maybe they would take advantage of the opportunity to provide something resembling customer service and make a few extra bucks. We all know how this ends, right? The lady argues with me for a while, and then she argues with Clarice for a while, and eventually we compromise; we have to buy A WHOLE ENTREE of chicken chow mein so our friend can eat the noodles. Needles to say my credit card company LOVES C&W. Perhaps to punish me for my insolence, C Dubs sends an obnoxious and easily confused driver in a bad "I'm going to community college to learn how to be a game show host" suit in lieu of our modest and very smiley normal delivery guy. The driver refuses to park in the parking lot and instead drives in circles around the parking lot waiting for me to meet him. After I spend 6 minutes on the phone just begging him to park and wait for me, I spend another 10 waiting for him to finish his victory laps. After botching my name once or twice (how do you get "Liberty" out of "Jetta"? They're not even made by the same manufacturer!), he hands me two plastic bags which he has TIED together (am I supposed to slump it over my shoulder hobo style?) and drives off. Once inside, I find my entree to be so spicy it makes my nose run and my rice to be even colder and more flavorless than usual. Hell hath no fury like a Chinese place inconvenienced. All in all, Chen and Wok is still the Peoria-area Chinese takeout for me. But believe me when I say I've never been so happy and excited to see the Goodcents girl walking towards our office. read more

I recently ate here again. The food was delivered prior to the promised LONG wait, and it was HOT and fresh. I have now become a devout fan of this little Chinese takeout place! My dinner guest was equally as impressed with all of the food. I will say that I thought that the sweet and sour was a little dry, but everything else was delicious. We were impressed that they didn't shirk on the shrimp and the shrimp were large and delicious! Is it gourmet and to be served on white linen? No. It's Chinese takeout that you eat in your sweats in front of the TV. Just wanted to show Chen and Wok some love with another star! read more

I have been sick as of late and I had a HANKERING for some hot and sour soup. So, I took my sick self down the street and was delighted to find out how cheap the food was!! It looked to be about a quart (family size) of soup, for $4.25! The also had a small size for $2.50. Yesssss! I ordered two and the vegetarian bowl (steamed veggies with rice and sauce). The food was so good that I went back for more for dinner. Quick review: cheap eats, tasty grub, stuff available without meats, food comes out fast! It's a short review, I know...but sometimes short and sweet is just what the doctor ordered. read more

Food had great flavor but the beef as tougher than beef jerky,I would love to give a higher rating but inferior meat is what makes this one three stars, I will try them again for sure in hopes things improve they have been open for 28 years read more

Sappy post alert: I left Chen today almost in tears, and it wasn't from the hot mustard. Today was the quintessential "one of those days", and I stopped here to pick up dinner for my family on the way home from work. I arrived 5 minutes after the lunch special cutoff, was a total scatter brain, unable to count the correct cash and then leaving my credit card behind, forgetting to order crab puffs and and just generally having trouble articulating what I wanted to accomplish. The woman serving me still let me get my takeout from the lunch specials, and had such a genuinely sweet spirit. I forgot to order a drink, and she gave me my soda on the house. She just ...got it. I don't know if it's women's intuition or what but I needed that little bit of goodwill today. Sometimes a free drink and a little compassion goes a long way. I'll be back. Also, Good food. Like, really good. read more

I thought sweet & sour pork was to have pineapple and bell pepper in it. Well theirs didn't and I was really missing that part of the dish. If you are looking for authentic sweet & sour pork don't order from here. read more
