Orange chicken (by itself) and a small side order of egg fried rice. Diet Coke and a Water to drink!
Zachary H.

Love the old school look and feel of this place, made me feel like I walked into a Time Machine. Quiet, and very clean! The people are extremely nice and the service was excellent! I ordered the orange chicken with a small side of egg fried rice, and it was delicious! Washed it down with a Diet Coke and water. Reasonably priced and food was hot and fresh made to order!

Lunch specials; were more like dinner specials, as we had leftovers to bring home. Nicely-sized portions tucked away in a restaurant off the beaten path; the perverbial "hidden fishing hole" has been found!

That's not chicken.

I'm sorry but I went looking for chicken fried rice and I swear that's not chicken it was gummy and I'm chunks just nasty I will never go back here again watch what your eating people !

Popo Platter & egg drop soup.

We came here on a Friday afternoon and had the Popo Platter, lunch specials #2pork & #9chicken. It was delicious. The sweet and sour pork was crispyyyyyy and the sauce was perfect. Everything was fried and crispy. The egg drop soup and flakes were also really good! My man said his was really good and he would come back. Definitely going to be back. It's almost a hidden spot with great food!

missy b.

BIG QUANTITY, we could have shared a plate the servings were so big! 10/10 the best Chinese restaurant I've gone to!

Fried Rice Combination
Jon K.

This place is so dope man, has never disappointed me ever, and they are so quick on the food. They give you lots of food too and the cost isn't bad whatsoever. I'm a regular here and ever since I tried their fried rice I've been just picking it up and it's always ready. Dine in is also quick as well. Give this place a chance and Im tellin you it won't disappoint. If I could give this place 8 stars I would.

Honey Walnut Shrimp- my absolute favorite
Isabel S.

Although the outside looks sketchy, it's the best Chinese food I've found in Phoenix. I've tried ¡¡¡¡ Walnut Honey Shrimp: 5 Stars Broccoli Beef: 5 Stars Kung Pao: 4 Stars (would like some veggies) Vegetable Chow Mein: 4 Stars (needs a tad but salt)

Peppered Beef!
Tony S.

For some reason, I was unable to check in. But nonetheless, here's my review: I first started going here about 8 years ago (B4Y), when one of my former students told me that her family owned the place. My favorite dishes are the Beef Fried Rice and the Peppered Beef. Of course, one has to have a Tsingtao beer to go with it. The onions and peppers are sauteed just right. They are cooked, but still have a bit of a crunch to them. The beef is quite tender (even the once in a great while, tough piece is still edible), and is spiced just right. The servings are plentiful. My waitress was someone I hadn't seen before (though it's been a long time since my last visit). She started to take my order, But the hostess knew what I have so she told the waitress for me. My only issue, was that after serving, she didn't stop by and ask how things were (I wonder if this is a trend now days?). A bit late, but here's the pictures.

Come for the Peking Duck; stay for the Duck Sauce y'all!…read more China Chili is absolutely fantastic! I've ordered from them through Uber Eats and Grubhub multiple times, and I already knew I loved their orange chicken and fried rice. But when a friend suggested we actually go inside and eat there, I thought, why have I been keeping this deliciousness strictly a takeout relationship? We went on a Saturday around 3p. The restaurant is simple, casual, and no-frills. Don't come looking for romance or Instagram-worthy ambiance. This is not the place for mood lighting. You're here to EAT, and honestly, I respect that. We were seated within about 5 minutes, and our server came by shortly afterward. My friend is a regular who swears by the Peking duck with buns, so we ordered that to share. I got my Sauvi B, my friend ordered a Chinese beer, and almost immediately, delicious egg drop soup appeared. No doctoring it up, no adding a bunch of stuff. It was perfect as is. Then came the Peking duck. Beautifully presented, expertly sliced, with crispy skin and all the fixings: shredded scallions, plum sauce, duck sauce, and spicy mustard. That spicy mustard? AMAZING. So... how did I build these little masterpieces you ask? Open the bun, spread on that delicious dark plum sauce, add the duck, scallions, a little crispy skin, and a dab of spicy mustard. Close it up and proceed to mind your business because baaaay-bee... that first bite was everything! I ate approximately 7 mini duck sandwiches. SEVEN! And I regret absolutely nothing. You can also order the Peking duck with pancakes, which I plan to try on my next visit. Because yes, there WILL be a next visit. And the one after that. The service was excellent, too. Attentive without hovering, efficient without rushing us, and perfectly pleasant. Nobody was trying to become our new best friend, but nobody was rude, either. Just good, straightforward service that let us enjoy our meal. By the time we left around 4:15, the restaurant was getting busy. All kinds of people were coming in, and plenty seemed to know exactly what they wanted. You could tell this place has its regulars, and I can absolutely see why. Now, let me address something very important from the perspective of a NEWYAWKUH (yes, that's how we say it). Since moving to Arizona 3 and a half years ago, finding truly delicious duck sauce has been the bane of my existence. I know, I know. First-world problems. But if you know, YOU KNOW. China Chili has the sauces, the fixings, the flavor, and the goods. That duck sauce and spicy mustard alone deserve a standing ovation. I can't wait to return with a bigger group so I can try more of the menu. But if you're going with just one other person, the Peking duck with buns is an excellent place to start. China Chili has officially secured another repeat customer. If you haven't been, go. And if you're already a regular, I now understand your loyalty. Come hungry. Bring friends. Order the duck. And for the love of all things delicious, don't sleep on the sauces!

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.
