    THICK sashimi
    Alan B.

    I've never been here, I had to call ahead to make sure there's no dress code and there's not lol. I was hungry but not too too hungry. I was thrown off by how cheap everything is here! I ordered chicken katsu (no curry :( ). I wasn't expecting much for $14, until they came out with 2 large cutlets!! The wonton soup had 4 wontons in it and it was very tasty! The soups were our favorite! I really want to try the house wonton now! We got spring rolls, hoping for the healthier option we see lately, but got fried ones. The sashimi we ordered were so THICK!! We definitely ordered way too much food! The check was about $52 after taxes and we got a lot of food! This place is definitely worth it. And they have all you can eat sushi and sashimi for $34.95/person. I think I may have filled up on water when I drank 6 glasses. Oh, everything pretty much comes out all together, so there's no real break between soups and appetizer and main course. The ladies waiting the tables were very tentative, refilling water, removing empty plates and replacing condiments. Definitely recommend this place if you love sushi and sashimi!

    I have never had a bad experience here. I order to go usually and it's always delicious. Never had food poisoning from raw fish which I normally order. I love the Philly hand roll. They use slivers of salmon and not cubes thankfully and it's delicious. I even got a free drink which was very nice. And they always read my notes and super accommodating. I don't really like red tuna and every time I ask to have it not included they listen! Just the attention to what I ask for is incredible. The restaurant is a bit small but it's cozy and wonderful. Perfect for date night or meeting up with some friends

    Decent sushi option if you want to fill up with the AYCE and don't care about high-quality sushi, but the orange chicken was not great. The lunch combo came with chicken fried rice (no flavor), and a small crab rangoon and spring roll. But the orange chicken itself was drenched in sauce. I absolutely love sauce but this was overdoing it. As another Yelper mentioned, their dishes are way oversauced, which then ruins the flavor.

    Food 9/10 would prefer my sashimi cut in thinner slices. Fresh quality though. Service 10/10 Ambiance 10/10

    Sauce overload
    Brad W.

    Lunch special was cheap at under 10 bucks, but food quality left a bit too be desired. The chicken with vegetables was doused with so much brown sauce, it was inedible, salty and disgusting. They put a whole jar on top of the food. Spring roll was tiny and burnt. Not a good lunch.

    ALL YOU CAN EAT. that's all I need to say lol the service was great, super attentive since we got there and they took our order in right away, our server would periodically come check on us and take our new orders. Everything we tried was tasty and we would definitely go back. It's a small place but the outside seating was great and shaded and we truly enjoyed trying this chill place.

    The most AMAZING yellowtail (hamachi), unagi, maguro, edamame, seaweed salad and tempura, not only in Phoenix, but even better than Tokyo!!! Thank you for a GREAT "late night" snack for Trish and I Cindy is the BEST server

    Iron chef is amazing. The vibe is like an underground eatery. Colorful lighting and friendly staff. They have a large menu of sushi, which seems to be their main go to, but they also have the likes of kung Pao chicken, Mongolian Chicken and other dishes. The food was absolutely amazing. The best Kung Pao chicken I have had in the state of Arizona. Upon returning to Phoenix I will definitely be eating at Iron Chef again and again and again. Solid A

    Listen... this place is amazing. The portions for the all you can eat menu are huge!! so be careful when you order lol. The regular food menu is given to you at first although everything in the regular food menu is even better than that all you can eat menu you have to ask for the all you can eat menu separately. They don't just give it to you upfront. I usually order off of the regular food menu, but sometimes you just want to eat all the sushi that you want to eat.

It's probably the fanciest Chinese restaurant I've been to in AZ. The lunch menu is excellent and quite impressive! There are 8 entrees to choose along with a side for only $20. What's crazy is that a full size seafood and wagyu beef belly jjampong is a side! They're regularly $24 so it's a crazy deal to get an additional entree!! We ordered seafood jjampong and wagyu beef jjampong as sides and genghis khan beef and chili garlic fried chicken as mains. The jjampong had that great umami taste without the oiliness that's unavoidable at other restaurants. The ingredients felt very premium and fresh. Ghengis khan beef pieces were very generous and tender with a savory sauce. Chili garlic chicken was a tad salty for me but had great crisp.

For whatever reason, Chinese restaurants in Arizona serve egg hockey pucks and cover it with various items and call it egg foo young. I even asked about it before I ordered it. Alas when I got home and saw what I had, I was disappointed. It's faster to make it this way but the egg hockey puck had no taste - zero. They could have at least added oyster sauce, a little soy sauce, maybe nam plah, and perhaps sesame oil. It was tasteless. A complete miss. I also ordered something simple, shrimp spring rolls. They were delicious! I inhaled them and will order them again. I'd go again just for the spring rolls. Maybe they have other dishes that are good and I may not entirely give up but the egg foo young is a no go.

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.

Some standouts for me included: - Ba Mee Moo Dang (BBQ pork egg noodles) - Pla Rad Prik Sam Rot (fried branzino) - Tom Kha Gai (coconut chicken soup) - Tom Yum Haeng Sen Yai (wide rice noodles) All of these had a beautiful balance of acidity, savoriness, spice, and herbs in one dish with tender meat.

The staff members made sure to ask about allergies and spice tolerances and thoroughly explained each dish as it was served.
