    Not sure about the bad reviews. The service is really, really nice. We have a family member who's "allergic" to MSG (they get the night sweats and headaches that are possibly placebo affect) and we called and the lady was so, so sweet. Literally so concerned with making sure our food was free of MSG. The food was pretty good. We got a variety of items. Nothing was out of this world but it was pretty typical takeout Chinese fair. Which, is good enough for me. I would definitely come back due to the service.

    Food was so bad. Had to put so much so much soy sauce and salt to even try to eat it.

    This soup was so bad with no flavor. Tried to put so much soy sauce and salt just to see if I can taste any flavor.

    I recently was turned on to this place by a coworker. It's now our to-go place. I read some comments about the customer service, I have fortunately only experienced great customer service.

    No flavor other than being extremely salty. I'm not sure if any seasoning other than salt was used.

    Chunks of chicken in the VEGETABLE moo shu

    I ordered from them off Door Dash last night and will never order from them again!! I ordered Vegetable Moo Shu and Shrimp Lo Mein. I received CHICKEN moo shu (this was for a vegetarian) and the Lo Mein had literally THREE shrimp in it and almost no vegetables. Just a container full of noodles for almost ten bucks. Thankfully Door Dash compensated me, but it wasn't their fault. The cooks at GWC need to be more vigilant and careful to get their orders right!!!

    Shi mai on the dim sum menu

    Twice tried, twice denied. Goodness, me. What a horrible set of experiences at this restaurant. First try: I sat with my menu for a good 20 minutes and didn't get any additional service. Not even a quick drive by. I even thought about walking into the next room to flag down my server but opted to just leave. Second try: Service was very attentive this time! But a couple of things left me feeling like the Great Wall is not worth a third try. First of all, I am very thrilled to see that the restaurant serves dim sum. I generally go to Gee's Garden, but wanted to give this place a try. Mistake. The dim sum cart sat motionless in the middle of the restaurant for I don't know how long. I didn't notice this until I placed my order, and my server brought the cart from behind a wall. I tried the siu mai, BBQ pork buns, har gau, shark fin and one other type of bun. My immediate impression? Most of the wrappers were beginning to dry out. And you know how wonderfully plush buns are meant to be? These looked to be slightly burnt on the bottoms, so much that the papers stuck to them and had browned. At the end of my meal, I had quite a bit of food left, some I decided to take with me and some I decided to leave behind. When the server caught wind of this, she asked why I was leaving food behind. I told her the items did not taste fresh and that they were stiff. Not only did she proceed to tell me, "No, no. They are fresh," but two other servers came by to affirm her statements. Wow! Three servers now when I couldn't get one on my first visit! Since they refused to believe me, I asked them to touch the food I was leaving behind. One did, and then she went quiet. Then one of the others told me -- no lie! not even exaggerating: "When you take it home, put it in the microwave with a few drops of water on it. Leave it in for a few seconds. It will become soft again." ...whaaa?! But I came to eat at your establishment! Not to take your food and microwave it at home! Wooooow. Folks, over the more than 10 years I have been enjoying dim sum I have had amazing, AMAZING dim sum in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle and elsewhere. I trust and believe I am a decent judge of what is fresh and what is sloppy. This was hands down one of the most outlandish experiences I have had at a restaurant. I won't be going back.

    Fresh Spring Rolls... Morn made very well and the pork was so old and tasted very bad...

So I searched Yelp and I found this gem, Jun Dynasty. We traveled an hour and forty minutes from Maricopa to try this place. I could've traveled to other Chinese restaurants in half the time in and around Phoenix and Scottsdale, but something just intrigues me about Tucson. Jun is located in an older part of Tucson and its location can be misleading. But trust me, you want to try this place. We were immediately greeted and seated after we entered the establishment. We were handed menus and asked what we'd like to drink and I ordered Oolong tea and water. The menu included several authentic dishes not found at other Chinese restaurants. I kept it simple though and ordered Walnut Shrimp for my wife, Steamed Dumplings in Peppercorn sauce, Salt & Pepper Fried Fish, and Bok Choy. Steamed dumplings were the first dish brought out. I ordered this because my wife can't eat anything spicy. Well this had a kick to it even I wasn't expecting. It was numbing, literally! Some restaurants will even list this type of dish as cooked in numbing oil. Soon after swallowing the dumpling, a numbing sensation enveloped our tongues. Sorry honey; I thought I ordered a mild dish. I ended up eating all of them. It was hard tasting the other dishes because of the numbing effect. The walnut shrimp came out next and I have to say, they were probably the best I had; even better than Fat's in Sacramento who set the bar back in the day. My wife devoured them. Bok choy was brought out next and she also loved them. They were served with I think a garlic sauce and it was very tasty. The Salt & Pepper fried fish were delivered last and they were also good. However, my wife preferred the walnut shrimp. I did have better S & P fish elsewhere, but these were still good. I can't speak enough about the staff. They were the friendliest I ever experienced in a Chinese restaurant. Our server always checked on us to make sure everything was fine. They all even said good-bye when we left. Yeah, I picked a good one!

Food: (4/5) Hummingbird nest or something like that:(4/5) It's a bit bland, but it has a good variety of shrimp, scallops, snow peas, and other vegetables on a crispy shell. Good low sodium option in my opinion. Walnut shrimp: (3/5) I'm not the biggest fan of sweet and salty foods, but it was pretty savory and crunchy despite the sauce. Pork intestines: (5/5) These were so crispy and oily. The spicy aroma from the peppers also isn't that unpleasant. Overall a very oil heavy dish and just as delicious. I did order another dish, but it wasn't that outstanding and I forgot the name of it. Service: (5/5) Water refills were frequent and there wasn't much else to it. Everything was quick and efficient. Ambiance: (4/5) Very quiet and dim restaurant. Even talking normally felt very loud. Decor in the walls definitely establishes the vibe. Overall a very nice experience.

Will not return but wish them the best. Regarding service, it was ok, but some of the other comments ring true. For example, in the middle of taking our order - the server asked the gentlemen at the table right next to us who just sat down, "What would you like to drink?" while standing talking to me. Perhaps a little training inside and outside the kitchen would raise the tide across the board.

    Stopped by for an early afternoon brunch today. Big mistake…read more But first, let me say that our server was friendly and attentive and could not have been more helpful. Promptly seated, drinks brought out, order taken and food delivered fast, hot and correct. The background music was some chinese music tv station playing modern easy listening tunes and, along with the comfortable chairs and solid table made for a relaxing environment. The food? meh. You can see our order in the latest photo and how expensive it was. the Lo Mein was mostly tasteless and certainly lacking in thast "lo mein flavor." Although the meat was tender, the sauce was just a sticky brown sauce. Surprisingly, the Spicy Pickle Tofu was essentially the same sticky brown sauce as the Lo Mein but with some fried tofu in it and without the noodles but nothing otherwise remarkable. You can tell by looking at my earlier picture attached. The old picture shows a bright and colorful plate. The dish today was a dark brown (you could hardly see the tofu from the beef) as everything was just dark. Eggplant seemed to have a similar brown sauce as well but the eggplant was otherwise tasteless. Nothing popped. Chicken bites were bland and not at all crunchy. Just fried to soft texture but no real flavor. According to our server, the menu was just recently updated about a month ago. We noticed because one of our favorites was the Fried Taro Pie which is now gone from the menu and the server said yes, that's right. Maybe this place has a new owner or chef, but it's no longer in my top asian restaurants for Tucson.

Rangoons were perfectly crispy, while the chow fun had a delicious wok hei flavor. The noodles and beef were tender and the dish had plenty of onions/green onions/etc. The only thing I didn't care for - and this is a personal preference - is that the chow fun did have a little more star anise/five spice flavor than I care for.

I got introduced to the existence of this Chinese restaurant that serves pretty authentic Chinese food for being in Tucson from a non Chinese doctor who hangs out with Chinese doctors at his Tucson hospital and they brought him here to eat REAL Chinese food in Tucson. I know this restaurant serves Chinese authentic food because they have a dish that is nothing but "cut off duck heads.". Just so that you know they have non-authentic Chinese food on the menu that only white people know as Chinese food such as gungbao chicken and broccoli beef, as well, if you don't want to order something as strange as the pile of duck heads. I ordered one of my favorite Szechuan dishes here. It is whitefish fillets with pickled vegetables in a soup. It is like a hot sour stew. It was a generous portion for $16.95 that year. But the reason why I am giving this restaurant two stars is because something happened that never happened to me ever in a restaurant in my 73 years of dining experience, Chinese restaurant or other wise. What happened was I like well lit tables. I don't like to sit in the dark. I was dining alone and like to read while I am eating and I said I want this brightest table which was the first one next to the waiting area. It was a table with four independent chairs. After I sat down and was already eating my food the restaurant asked me to move to another table which was a booth in the corner which was the darkest table in the restaurant. I like bright well lit tables because I read while I eat and I always dine alone. The reason why they asked me to move was because four very obese men couldn't fit in that darkest booth in the far corner of the restaurant, because there was no room in the booth for their bellies to fit. They had to sit in the independent chairs at the table where I was sitting and I was only one person eating at that table for four by myself. They could have waited till I was done eating. So I did move when they explained why and I saw the 4 men waiting there, but honestly I don't think this request that I move when I was ready eating at that table would have happened if this were not a Chinese restaurant, and I say that because I am Chinese. That was my first time eating there and I never went back.
