    General Tso Chicken
    Dylan Hoa N.

    I like General Tso Chicken so much and had not eaten many years ago. I just call for order and take about 15 mins to pick it up. If you do not like chili or spicy, you have to tell them before. Serving with the white rice is really good.

    Got to try their beef noodle soup! Reasonable price and fast service :) Oh and this place is located at Mekong plaza mall. Beef noodle soup, the portion was huge, there were 3-4 pieces of meat and noodle. It was good but I personally felt the broth was a bit salty, but it was a good filling meal!

    I knoowwwww y'all are lacking taste buds if you think this Chinese place it any good. Maybe I'm a snob because I lived in places inCalifornia where we had so many Chinese restaurant gems in the San Gabriel Valley. We ordered some of the most basic things, and it was just NOT it. I really wanted to support this business and give them a shot, but it was disappointing. Why is it so hard to find good Chinese food in Arizona? How do you mess up on a green onion pancake? It was burned and dry to a crisp. My eggplant as microwaved and soggy, the dumplings tasted frozen, and the beef noodle soup didn't taste fresh, the noodles tasted microwaved because of the texture (maybe it because wasn't, but the noodles didn't taste fresh). I heard the microwave and seeing them taking food out!! Pictures provided..

    Braised pork noodle soup

    Located in the food court inside of Mekong Plaza. It's more of a takeout spot but if you want to dine there in the food court you can. Service is fast, friendly, and they were very helpful in answering all our questions. You don't find many places like this anymore, where the food is good, the portion sizes are borderline generous, and the prices are affordable. We decided to order some dishes to share that we thought would be better to eat fresh there, than to take out. We ordered the juicy steamed pork dumplings and the braised pork noodle soup. The dumplings were good, standard, as far as soup dumplings go. The braised pork noodle soup on the other hand was delicious. The broth was lighter than we were expecting, however, the braised pork itself, was melt in your mouth tender, and had great flavor to it. The only thing about this place is that I wouldn't recommend it to people who are vegan or vegetarian. Most of their vegetable dishes come with either egg, shrimp, or is cooked in oyster sauce. Only mentioning this because a person in our group is vegetarian and couldn't find something on their menu to eat.

    XLB

    Came on a Sunday night at 6pm. Originally went to another soup dumpling place nearby, but they were out of XLB. Just happened to see that this place had them on their menu! Straight forward service from the lady at the counter, not friendly nor rude haha. She just wants your order/payment and nothing else. Went with a few orders of the XLB, Sweet and Sour Pork Ribs, Beef Chow Fun, and the Pork Potstickers. She gave me a number and off I went to one of the many tables available. We were one of their three groups. Food came out quickly and looked decent. Upon tasting, we were kind of surprised that the dishes all tasted well above average! XLB were soft with plenty of filling/soup! The dumplings were our favorite dish. We enjoyed our meal and wouldn't hesitate to come back again!

    Home-Made Fried Pork Potstickers
    Amanda C.

    Conflicted about this one. Cheap takeout - 4 items for about $42!! Food was OK just not as advertised... Heng's is located in the food court of Mekong Plaza. Plenty of seating if you want to eat there. Service was fine. Ordered the beef noodles - the broth was nice but it came with minimum veggies and and only 2 pieces of beef. The spicy boiled fish was good but I'm used to the Sichuan style with a more liquid sauce - this one was thick. Great with white rice but they charge you for rice...many places give you some white rice for free with your order. The potstickers were not as advertised. On their poster they had long style potstickers and my husband was super excited because he can usually only find them when he goes back to Taiwan. Well, they were not that style at all! The yang zhou fried rice also wasn't as expected. It was OK but should usually come with a variety of proteins and finer cut toppings. Tbh, since its close to us we may return for a cheap takeout option.

    Rude old lady
    Jorge M.

    Food is good and service is fast, rude lady at the front though. We got the soup noodles and chow mein. Chowmein wasn't anything special but broth was good. We asked for more then 1 napkin cause there was four of us and she rolled her eyes and said to get more from somewhere. Beware of the rude old lady Wont be back

    Spicy Beef Noodles

    Quick lunch stop at Heng's after grocery shopping at Mekong. Service was quick & the Beef Noodle was delicious. Will definitely stop by to try some other dishes!

    干炒牛河(Beef Rice Noodles)
    Jamie K.

    Great place for Chinese food you shouldn't miss. I went in Mekong Market to grab some groceries the other day and came across to this little "Kitchen" in the food court. I ordered a very Cantonese dish which I considered unusual to find in US Chinese restaurant. It turned out that the dish was well made. It isn't the traditional "河粉 He Fen" (Thick Rice Noodles) that I expected. It's thicker than the ones I had back in Canton. And also very interesting choice of vegetables besides bean sprouts in this dish that I found a little different than what I had back in my hometown Canton. But beef was so tender and tasty and the noodles are favored really well. I would give this whole experience a 4-star based on the authenticity&Taste. Also it's a place you get to order and have a quick bite at the food court so there's no proper seatings like we usually do in restaurants. Just a reminder for people that goes in for a try. But I totally understand how hard it is for small Chinese business in US like this to survive and I really appreciate having this amazing food experience to make me feel a little closer to home again. 我的评价可能不太客观,毕竟我这次只点了一个菜,就是干炒牛河。作为土生土长的广东人,我可能对干炒牛河有更特殊的感情,因为是从小吃到大的食物,所以评价上可能会稍微有一点点苛刻。但是我觉得是好吃的,河粉比想象中的要更大一点,不是我们传统意义上的半指节长度的河粉。味道倒是没有问题。牛肉很嫩很好吃。蔬菜上我觉得芽菜的加入是正确的,但是另一种蔬菜和广东常用的生菜大相径庭。对于菜品的不同我其实倒也能理解,毕竟在这边要找到相同的食材做出一样味道的中餐是会需要更多人力物力去调整的,我们吃的也不是正宗的大饭店,会有差异性其实是可以接受的。(虽然说生菜也真的不难找就是了)。但总体来说能达到预期水准,所以会给四颗星的评价。还是推荐大家去试吃一下的。

    Beef & Broccoli, with included side of rice.
    Ken R.

    This is my second time trying this walk-up counter location inside Mekong Plaza. I don't recall what I ordered before but the beef and broccoli I ordered today I will not soon forget. As you can see from the picture, the portion was plentiful. Additionally, the beef was tender and the sauce was awesome. It came out smoking hot! This dish would've easily served two people however, I decided to take care of it all by myself. Definitely will try this place again.

    Rice & Dumplings
    Sina P.

    Decided to try out one of the small restaurants in The Mekong Market. We chose Heng's Kitchen because the food looked appetizing from the menu and weren't in the mood for ramen/hotpot. The food was about 3 stars, the best item was the Kung Pao chicken, it was flavorful and I liked the Bell pepper and onion cooked with it. The dumplings were okay, not too bad but i would try the pot stickers over these. The chowmein noodles had a specific taste that I didn't necessarily like. It was just alright. The service was quick and the girl taking out order was nice. Tons of seating areas in the food court area and you can check out the entire market!

    Heng's Kitchen is a Chinese Restaurant in the food court at Mekong Plaza. We shared the Szechuan Spicy Boiled Fish. The woman that served our dish was very nice and split the rice plate for us. This is a dish that I am familiar with and I know it's supposed to be spicy. It's supposed to be fiery hot and mouth numbing. The dish was developed with good flavors, the fish was cooked to perfection and it did have some heat and some numbing but was the mildest version I ever had of this dish by very far so I would never order it again here. They have a open area in the wall behind the register and the cook was looking at me and I wonder if he thought I look like a person that doesn't like spicy food? I don't know?

For years I have driven 25 minutes for takeout and never regretted it. High decor -No, limited selections -No, quiet -No, great food -Absolutely, incredibly friendly and pleasant staff -100%. Our typical order is a large General Chicken with extra sauce and Malaysian fun chow. The general chicken is perfectly breaded, deliciously flavored, slight bite and an uncious taste making you want more. The Malaysian fun chow has wok fried wide rice noodles with a hint of char, shrimp, bean sprouts,onions, veggies and a light but savory taste. Another home run! Don't let the exterior or inside decor persuade your judgement. Hands down the staff is second to none and the food is fabulous. Asian Cafe Express is an incredible value for the food quality and portion size. Trust me, if you give them a shot, you will also be ordering here for years. To the staff, fabulous job and thanks!

    A Mesa Asian District Gem Worth Seeking Out…read more Asian Cafe Express is a lovely strip mall gem near H-Mart in Mesa's Asian District, and after 21 years in business, it clearly has a loyal following for good reason. We brought in a fresh lobster from H-Mart to try their "bring your own seafood" cooking option and chose the garlic onion stir fry preparation. It's $14.99 for anything under 2 lbs and $7.50/lbs for anything over. It came out excellent, served over crispy egg noodles with classic Asian flavors and plenty of wok-fired goodness. We also enjoyed the Peking pork ribs, which were deboned, tasty, and slightly sweet; the stir-fried green beans, which were fresh and well prepared; and the garlic spicy chicken wings, which were especially flavorful and highly recommended. The red bean drinks were traditional and satisfying, with soft, nicely soaked mung beans and no milk. Service was friendly, efficient, and personal, handled by a couple of ladies who clearly know the restaurant and their customers well. While we were there, plenty of regulars came in for takeout and several tables were happily dining in. Overall, we really enjoyed Asian Cafe Express and were surprised we had not stopped in sooner. Highly recommend, especially for the "bring your own seafood" cooking option and the garlic spicy wings. We will definitely be back.

The Xiao Long Bao were the winners of thee meal and would be why I go back. Easy to eat and tasty. I only wish the soup inside was a bit hotter. The Chicken Sheng Jian Bao was good, but the breading a little thicker than I personally like. This felt more like a dessert with the sesame bottom. Good taste, just heavy. Felt like we were rushed a bit and we're asked several times if we were done. There were empty tables, so that knocked it from the higher 3.5 side to the lower. Yelp is a flat star rating.
