We got a crab and shrimp bundle. That's normally $35 for 20! We were able to easily add on sausages, extra corn, potatoes, different sauces, hard-boiled eggs, and more! They even had a side of lo mein noodles. We tried on the side. Definitely recommend this location, especially because they actually debate their shrimp. I am not trying to eat any poo Shout out to the chefs to the creators of this place seasoning is on point! My boyfriend did say number three isn't as spicy. There is tons of seating in here, indoor and outdoor and they celebrate birthdays!

Rose was polite and efficient. This location is in a large shopping center with ample parking. It was about 2-3 mins off the freeway. The atmosphere was very lively and friendly. This was the exact opposite of the other location where everyone appeared unhappy. The manager was very friendly as well. The food was delicious. The Cajun fries are yummy! I still wish they weren't so stingy with the red beans and rice. Overall, much better experience. I highly recommend this location! Manager was great!

Crab cheese puffs were excellent (just not enough of them). Loved the lemon chicken, and although I don't like eggplant, this spicy garlic was great disguising the eggplant! Both chow meins were yummy. Can't decide which one I liked the best. I didn't feel like a needed to drink a lot of water after eating which sometimes I feel like after Chinese food. That's a good thing. Definitely going to make this place a go-to for Chinese food!

There was a huge parking lot in the back, so parking wasn't an issue. They had indoor and outside seating.

Juicy savory pork skewers with sticky rice and green papaya salad. Everything was good! I really wanted to try the dish that said it was Thai hot and no refunds, but I was overruled lol.

The atmosphere is relaxed and the service is amazing. Our food came out in record time, but was still hot and tasted of high quality! I recommend coming during their lunch times, I came on a Sunday and they still offered their lunch menu. The lunch menu plates are huge! They come with your entree, soup, chow mein, rice, a crab ragoon, and an egg roll. I ordered the Kung Pao Shrimp and it was delicious. It had a slight kick, bit it wasn't too spicy. The shrimp was cooker perfectly, mot rubbery. My favorite was the egg drop soup, it had tofu in it and it was addictive. I definitely recommend checking George and Sons out!

Recently I heard very good things about this Asian restaurant. I couldn't wait to go and try their…read moreegg foo young - an American asian staple by which I and many others judge an asian take out restaurant. To be clear, I am a New Yorker and know good fast Chinese food. The ambiance was promising. It looked like I was finally going to find what I've been looking for in Phoenix for years. 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.

The decor is minimal but that's totally ok, but a little background music would be nice. I was a little nervous when all the tables had non-Asians. Typically not a great sign. lol We ordered the pork egg rolls. Two to an order for around $3.50. They are not very big, but they are good! Super crispy, not greasy and came out screaming hot. We asked for spicy mustard and they brought some little packets. It's not very spicy so add in some chili oil if you like it hot. The noodles came out at the same time. It's a big portion with beef, chicken, shrimp, calamari and bok choy. Beef, chicken and shrimp were all great. The calamari was a bit chewy and the bok choy overcooked. The sauce was a little thicker than usual. Maybe a little heavy on the corn starch. It definitely needed the chili oil to add some zip. Overall, the food is good and again the service was fantastic. This is the place to go for your Cantonese Chinese food fix.

Ling & Louie's have been my favorite Asian fusion go-to for at least a decade…read more I frequently meet up with friends or bring out-of-towners here to experience their awesome menu. I drive from Arrowhead to their North Scottsdale location, and for me, the trip is worth it. (I wish they would open an Arrowhead location though.) Their orange chicken is the best in the Valley as far as I'm concerned with decent portions. Just excellent. The New Wave Pad Thai is another favorite that never disappoints. Their menu has a wide variety and lunch/dinner is turned out to you in 15 minutes, tops. The atmosphere is pleasant, and the staff is attentive without being interruptive as you enjoy dinner. Nice semi-enclosed patio for evenings and our rare cooler days. Excellent place.

Overall, this was an extremely disappointing meal and absolutely not worth the price.

I got chicken lo mein (soft noodles) and chicken is perfectly cooked, right amount of sauce. Broccoli and beef sauce was also fantastic. Tender beef and vegetables, not mushy. The orange chicken sauce is packed separately and the chicken was a bit chewy- not my favorite but mid. Came with generous helpings of white rice. The chicken spring rolls are delicious! Great crunch and flavor. Order comes with 2 and red sauce. Pot stickers came with 4 and sauce. Those were pretty good but not as flavorful as the spring rolls. My online order was on time and service for pickup was satisfactory. The inside of the restaurant was packed with people, bustling and lively. I'd like to dine in next time, ambience looks inviting for dinner. Dim lighting. Clean and modern interior.

The wonton soup broth and wontons lacked a bit of flavor but the size was big and it was packed with veggies and multiple wontons which i appreciated. Overall I would absolutely return and will be trying more items! The restaurant itself is actually mondern and a big space I would love to dine in next time.

The Boas were good, but the dough was a little thicker than I'm used to. So I felt full rather quickly! The fried rice however, 10/10 NO NOTES!!! Best fried rice I think I've ever had!! Totally worth the drive. Will be back for sure!!

2/22/26: I've been going to Phoenix Palace for years, I can't believe I never reviewed it before…read more Damn. I've only ever partaken of their dim sum menu, and it is absolutely delicious. I've very picky about my food, but my sweet tooth loves their egg & custard tarts, their mochi w/ peanut, the rice porridge, the pineapple buns. Their rice noodles (pork, beef, shrimp) are great, as is the sticky rice, the steamed buns w/ BBQ beef, the spare ribs, spicy cucumbers. All of it is good. We usually have a crowd of four to six, sometimes more, when we visit so we always have a plethora of food on our table. The staff is always friendly and smiling, even if sometimes there's a language barrier. We point, they provide, and we always manage to have full bellies & great laughs at Phoenix Palace. This particular Saturday we had the opportunity (and surprise!) of enjoying a parade for Chinese New Year. Awesome!

It's an adventure: authentic, lively, and full of energy with the carts flowing all around you, loaded with all kinds of delicious bites. The staff is super friendly and always happy to help if there's something you don't see on the carts. Some of our other favorites are the salt and pepper shrimp, noodles, and shrimp egg rolls--the grease is absolutely worth it!
