Had lunch here today since they were one of the few places open on a Sunday, which was nice. Despite what has been written in previous reviews, the lady that waited on me was not so friendly when I first arrived. She was kind of short and snippy when I told here I wanted to eat in and not take it to go. She warmed up and redeemed herself by the end of my visit. I ordered the lunch special Yu Shang Pork. The food came out piping hot and had clearly been made to order. All of the ingredients were fresh, but it was WAY too sweet. Like syrup sweet. I asked for some extra hot mustard, which helped a bit, but barely made it edible. The soup was good, the fried wonton and crab puff were pretty good too. The chicken eggroll I ordered was pretty dry and lacked flavor. I will try the veggie eggroll on a future visit. Finally, I had water to drink since they did not have any hot tea. I will certainly try again. I will be sure to pick something more familiar so that I can hopefully avoid the over sweet issue.

Cashew chicken

Amazing that it took us so long to find this place. It's a little hole in the wall in a strip mall. Plenty of convenient parking. You can sit and eat but I think most people take out. If you eat there it is styrofoam and plastic plates and utensils. The service is wonderful and they are so friendly. It's obvious as we sat there that they gave many loyal regulars. Food comes out quickly - and it's piping hot and very tasty. We started with hot and sour soup. The color was lighter than we were used too, but flavor, texture and spiciness were perfect. We had almond chicken and king pao chicken. Both were very good. We found our new Chinese food place. And I just want to reiterate that it's a BONUS to do business with nice people. These people are so kind and courteous. YUMMY FOOD.

Orange Chicken

I got orange chicken and Wor Wonton to go. I enjoyed both. The chicken had a little kick to it. I always order Wor Wonton Soup at any Chinese restaurant. It was good. I will say I had gotten takeout about 8 years ago and wasn't impressed, so maybe that was an off night. Glad I gave them another try.

Egg drop soup and wonton soup
Ernie J.

Some of the best classic Chinese weve had in years! Everything was super hot, fresh and made to order. The highlights were the egg drop & wonton soup and the house lo mein was epic! Three kings was delicious and full of perfectly cooked plump shrimp. The pork egg foo young was really good ...could've been a bit crispier though but the gravy was DELICIOUS. All the ladies working there were sweet and attentive. We will definitely return!

Best Chinese food spot in the Ahwatukee area. If you are a native Ahwatukeeians, circa 1991ish, you'll remember Abacus Inn that was on Elliott and 48th in the Safeway plaza; Great Wok is comprobale to them and they were the bomb. I usually get the sweet and sour chicken and the house lo mein. Big portions, feeds a family of 4 easily (two teenage kids), great taste, nice service and the prices are reasonable.

Shrimp Chop Suey...yum!

I've been to China Chili three times now, so I can safely say it's my favorite Chinese restaurant…read morein town. On my most recent visit, I stopped by on a Friday evening for dinner. They have complimentary parking in the front, side, and back of the restaurant. There aren't a ton of spots, but there's street parking close by too. Ambiance (3.5/5): Like most Chinese restaurants, China Chili is pretty no frills. Which isn't a problem for me at all, I'm there for the food. It's a spacious restaurant with both regular tables and circular tables that rotates (good for large groups sharing dishes). Service (4/5): Fantastic service is also not something I expect at a Chinese restaurant. Yet again, I'm there for the food. With that being said, service, while not overly friendly, is typically pretty efficient. Which I always appreciate. Drinks (4/5): Pretty much your standard soft drinks, tea, and a limited selection of alcoholic beverages. My favorite option is their buddha beer which you don't see in a lot of places. It's a lager and it's in a buddha-shaped bottle. It doesn't get much better than that. Food (5/5): The first time I came was for one of my favorite dishes... Peking duck. There aren't a ton of spots in Phoenix that have it, but out of the ones that do, China Chili serves it at a high level. You can go with either crepes or baos (additional surcharge). The duck is absolutely to die for. Flavorful, juicy meat with crispy skin that fits in perfectly into your mini "sandwich" with green onions and Hoisin sauce. For a reasonable price too. Their food outside of duck is of a similar quality. I especially like their flat noodles with beef. Even classic dishes like sesame chicken have a twist here. It's sliced chicken rather than fully breaded chicken. Just as good as the typical way, the sauce is delicious. My only complaint? They give you a pretty small helping of white rice with your dish. Outside of that, the portions are generous. Everything I've had at China Chili has been a hit. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

We got the peking duck with buns and Szechuan style green beans. The duck came with hoisin sauce…read moreand shredded green onions. They gave each of us a bowl of rice. There aren't many places in Phoenix that serve duck this neatly like in my photo, and I appreciate that it's not another chain restaurant. Is it the best version of this dish I've ever had, no...but it can be a nice change from the usual options of beef, pork, shrimp, and chicken.

I came here with my friend for lunch to celebrate her birthday. It was my first time here, and the…read moreplace is huge! The front entrance doesn't really match the size of the restaurant, though. It looks surprisingly small compared to how big the place is inside. The restaurant is decorated with lots of red, lanterns, and even a giant fortune cookie. The food is a mix of Chinese and Korean dishes, but it's definitely more Americanized Asian food. We ordered from their Lunch Combo Special. My friend got the Chili Garlic Fried Chicken and the Seafood Jjampong without shrimp because she's allergic to it. I got the Chili Garlic Shrimp with fried rice. When our server found out it was my friend's birthday, she told us we could choose a complimentary dessert from the menu, which was so nice! My friend picked the Glazed Sweet Potato with Lemon Sorbet. The lunch combos were huge. My friend was already so full after eating the jjampong that she had to take the chicken home. I really liked my shrimp and fried rice. They were so tasty that I finished everything! We also really enjoyed the Glazed Sweet Potato with Lemon Sorbet. The refreshing lemon sorbet paired perfectly with the sweet, warm glazed sweet potato. I try, I review, and I might come back again to try something else.

Went late after a game. There was only one other table in the restaurant…read more We had been in 112° heat all day and were really thirsty. The water glasses looked like what you'd make a tequila sunrise in (tall & skinny). Obviously with ice that type of glass doesn't hold very much water. Getting a refill and we needed several, was worse than pulling teeth. We had the bartender as the only employee left working. One time I had to ask four times for a refill. We also ordered beer and a whisky drink so we weren't cheap. The food was pretty good. The ticket time on my entree was about 10 minutes but the other two at our table didn't get their food for almost half an hour. No consistency. I may try this place again much earlier in the night.

Food hits the spot when you're craving Chinese. Basically can't go wrong with anything on the menu…read more Service is really good as well, highly recommend this place!

We came here for dinner because one of my friends said that they are one of the restaurants that…read moresources their noodles from local house-made noodle vendor Samuel Hom from Phoenix Produce Co. Gotta support local when you can I say! The menu is pretty basic and has all your typical options for Americanized Chinese food. Wanting to get something that had noodles in it, I opted for the combination #1 which has chow mein crispy noodles, pork fried rice, and two tempura shrimp. Quite a lot of food and for a very reasonable price! I think the combo was around $10. If you are a fan of bean sprouts, this is your place. The chow mein had a massive pile of beansprouts on top. The noodles were indeed crispy but they was such a meager portion compared to the beansprouts. The fried rice was pretty basic but also a generous portion and the two tempura shrimp had a nice crispy batter. I tried some of the eggroll too which is one of the most unique versions I've had since the super crispy outer layer was either a different preparation or different wrap material than I'm used to. The interior was made primarily of beansprouts too. Service was good. Our food was prepared fairly quickly.
