    Beef is overcooked, no flavor. Noodles and soup broth ate good. Needs more noodles
    Raquel F.

    Lychee Kitchen does a lot of things well! First, the service is great. Staff is ready to help, responsive, attentive, and quick. The restaurant is clean and and tidy. Food comes really quickly and is very hot like it just came off the wok. While there are some Chinese style take out dishes that are very good, I wouldn't say that across the board with every dish. I think some dishes are better than other so it's worth trying from their expansive menu. A lot of their dishes use a brown sauce so you'll find it in a lot of gravy heavy dishes like stir fry. The only downside is that the sauce is very sweet, like almost distractingly sweet. I mitigate this by simply asking for less sauce when I order. They started offering some Taiwanese style dishes so if that's something that interest you, ask the server. One of my personal favorite dishes is the bbq pork fried rice. It's nothing special. It's simple but they get it right, which not all places do. Any of their choy dishes are good, lots of garlic and wok hey. I come here pretty regularly and I'm happy to.

    Sweet and sour Fish, so yummy
    John T.

    Came in for a solo lunch outing during the Super Bowl Sunday game. I've been here dozens of times and I already know the food is good. Today I ordered the sweet and sour fish with a non alcoholic ginger beer. Food was exceptional like always. Service was prompt and very accommodating. The good thing is I was watching the game on their big screen and it was awesome. Very chill and cool Chinese food spot, highly recommend. If you want superb Chinese food and not just ordinary Chinese food than check this place out. Prices are very reasonable and service is very prompt and attentive.

    S28. Teriyaki Chicken Roll
    Amy R.

    Didn't know this place was here but a hidden gem for sure. We got the orange chicken with noddles and teriyaki roll. The orange chicken was good. I found the chicken a little dry but my gf loved it. The noddles were good as well. The teriyaki roll was a miss for me is was super dry but again my gf thought it was ok lol last but not least the cucumber salad. 10/ 10 we will be back the service was 10/10 soooooo nice and very attentive! It's small in the restaurant but they make it work. It was super busy but they didn't rush you out. Highly recommend

    Orange Chicken
    Claire C.

    We ordered orange chicken, stir fried veggies, and beef chow fun. The orange chicken was very flavorful, not too sweet and with the citrus flavor, good company with rice. The stir fried veggies was good too, and of course our favorite: beef chow fun! The portion was generous and has nice wok flavor. Good choice for Chinese takeout when you are craving Chinese food.

    Crispy Honey Chicken
    Christine N.

    Fantastic place for Chinese fare and especially, if you have a larger group. They were able to accommodate 12 of us to celebrate a birthday and let us bring in our own cake. The service was very friendly and stayed on top of our needs. It's family style dishes so be prepared to share. Some of my favorites from the day were the salt and pepper squid, the honey walnut shrimp, and the salt and pepper fish. But, their honey chicken was crispy and sweet too. Deviously a great place to check out.

    Combo fried rice
    Sahand S.

    Good Chinese joint with great lunch specials and cheap drinks. Portions are good and service is friendly.

    S8. Las Vegas Roll
    Nathan W.

    Still one of the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Making really great food and fast. The service is really great and friendly. I had the Beef Chow Fun with vegetable egg rolls and ice cream milk tea which is probably one of my favorite drinks. The restaurant tonight when I went to pick up, my food was incredibly crowded, which is a good thing considering that good news travels fast about this place and it certainly for good reason this food is great. Ambience is casual yet well lit and comfortable place to eat.

    Pad Thai
    Elizabeth N.

    Ventured here because family was staying close by. The staff were very friendly and attentive. It is more of a family style restaurant so would recommend ordering multiple dishes to share. We got the walnut shrimp (which was fantastic), the house fried rice, the Szechuan fish (great spice level), the "Happy Family" chefs special and the pad Thai (the flavoring could use a little work). The food came out very quickly and for the most part was delicious. Overall, great first experience!

    This review is strictly for the food as I ordered through Uber Eats. I didn't step food into the…read moreresturant or have interaction with the employees. I like that they use purple rice for all the sushi here, it's healthy and also adds a bit to the flavor. Fish is fresh and portion sizes are generous - I mean that in a way that the rolls and sushi fill you up quite quickly without the rolls being too large in size. The balance between fish and rice is a solid ratio, although I'll say that everything started to taste quiet similar after a while and I couldn't really differentiate between the different rolls. Anyways, overall a solid sushi spot in Scottsdale, AZ. Mt Fuji Roll- Love that they top with raw scallop! Yellowtail Carpaccio - Fresh and vibrant, jalapeno adds a nice kick Havana Roll - The mango brings brightness to the roll 5 Nigiri & Crazy Roll - Value combo, the bluefin tuna quality is good

Upon arrival, the place doesn't look like anything special. It's inside a strip mall, and looks mediocre. However, do not judge too soon. Once you get inside, everything is well laid out & it's very nice. It was busy when we went in on a Friday night, BUT we got seated quicker than estimated- which is always a win! I was not happy with where we were seated, as it was facing the wall in the small bar area. We are people watchers by nature, so it's always fun to be in a spot where we can look around the room effortlessly. However, it wasn't the end of the world and I certainly didn't want to wait any longer, the food looked wonderful & I was starving! I do not remember exactly which rolls we got, but... all of them were EXCELLENT!! Everything was undoubtedly fresh, and made with quality ingredients. I thought the black rice was really neat! I've never seen that before. The waitstaff were very friendly and accommodating. It took no time at all to get our orders out, which was impressive considering that the place was packed near capacity! As we left, all of the sushi pros behind the glass thanked us for coming in and wished us a great rest of our evening. I thought that was very kind. It's not very often that you find a whole line of people stopping what they are doing to wish you well on your way out of their establishment. All in all, 10/10 experience! I would recommend this place to anyone who loves Sushi!

    The food was actually very good, which makes the experience even more disappointing because the…read moreservice was absolutely horrible. We were a party of 12 visiting on vacation, and none of us are from the area. We ordered spam musubi and a chicken skewer as appetizers. Both appetizers arrived well after our entrees had already been served and we had essentially finished eating. Each time we asked about them, we were repeatedly told, "They're coming." Mind you, these are simple appetizers that should not take anywhere near that long to prepare. When we asked for the third time, we finally asked that the appetizers be cancelled since we had already finished our meal. At that point, the gentleman working the front area , tall, with red hair, loudly yelled from across the restaurant, in an extremely rude and confrontational tone, "It's already on the grill!" There was absolutely no reason to speak to paying customers that way. His response was unprofessional, unnecessary, and honestly created a very hostile and uncomfortable feeling during what should have been an enjoyable dinner, especially while our group was on vacation and simply trying to enjoy a meal together. When the appetizers eventually came out, we left them sitting there because we were already done eating and ended up taking them to go. He eventually told us they would be removed from the bill, which we appreciated, but that did not excuse the way the situation was handled. Again, the food was good, but good food does not make up for poor service and especially not for an employee speaking to customers in an aggressive and disrespectful manner. Management should seriously address how customers are treated, because the interaction with this particular employee overshadowed what could have otherwise been a good dining experience for our party of 12.

We also tried the sushi flight, which was a great way to sample a few different flavors. Overall, I really enjoyed it, although the eel was probably my least favorite of the flight just personal preference. The crispy tuna rice was easily the star of the meal! Crispy, flavorful, and the textures worked so well together. I would 100% order that again. The ramen, however, was just okay for me. It wasn't bad or inedible, but the broth was lacking that rich, deep flavor I look for in a good bowl of ramen. A little more depth and seasoning would really take it to the next level. The service was honestly one of the highlights. Our waiter was super friendly, cool, and attentive without hovering, which I always appreciate. Overall, there were definitely more hits than misses. The great service, fun atmosphere, and crispy tuna rice are enough for me to give Full Moon Izakaya another try. Next time, I'll be exploring more of the menu!

We shifted gears and went next door to Sake Haus, and I'm so glad we did! Everything was spectacular! First of all--BEST edamame I've ever had! That tallow really adds a richness! And the gyoza had just the right amount of kick to them. We had both the hamachi crudo and the halibut crudo. They were both delicious, but the hamachi was the standout. Hamachi is usually a little too fishy for me, but this just melted in my mouth and left me wanting more. We also had one of the specials, the 808 roll. It was topped with poke, and we would not let them take the plate until we'd scooped up every little morsel! Cocktails and service were excellent as well. We definitely ended up with a pricier meal than what we'd planned next door, but it was totally worth it! I wish I'd taken pics of the beautifully plated dishes, but I was too just eating!

A few things to preface this review: 1) I…read morelove sushi and I typically steer clear of sushi in the desert for obvious reasons. 2) I lean towards sashimi and high quality fish. The service- pretty poor. I was sat in the bar at the back but I basically sat there for a good 5 minutes and nothing. I went back up front and asked to sit at the bar and it was still pretty inattentive, especially considering no one else was even seated in the front room at the time. Never got my water refilled, had to flag them down to put in more food, that sorta thing. The vibes- thought the bar was pretty lit and is prob pretty fun during HH. The food- overpriced for what you get and portion size while the fish and flavors being a smidge above average. I left still hungry after getting the gold omakase, bad and buri roll, and hamachi crudo. The hamachi was the best part of the meal but I'd still expect at least 5 pieces for the price. Anyways, this spot will hit the spot if you have a sushi craving. I can't vouch for the drinks but I assume it more than checks the box in that regard judging by the menu, selection, and vibe. But know that you're in for some trade offs imo.

When we arrived, I felt a little scolded for making our reservation through OpenTable, even though that's the platform Arizona Restaurant Week directed us to when we clicked the reservation link. That left me a little confused as to why OpenTable is listed as an option in the first place. We were also seated right next to the only other two guests in the restaurant, despite there being plenty of empty tables. I understand the seating choice a little more once the restaurant started filling up, but at the time, it made us feel a bit awkward and crowded. Thankfully, the **food was the highlight of the experience--and it was delicious!** I wasn't a huge fan of the crispy rice, but the cucumber salad was SO good. I also ordered the Dragon Roll, which was delicious. We ordered from the Arizona Restaurant Week menu, and choosing the steak made it an especially great value. The menu included an appetizer and dessert as well, so there was a lot of food for the price. Angela took great care of us throughout the meal. I do wish she had been a little more accommodating when our sushi roll presentation accidentally fell, but overall, she was attentive and friendly. There was also a little mix-up with the salmon belly nigiri. We thought it was included in happy hour, but it turns out regular salmon is on the happy hour menu while the salmon belly is not. Honestly, after trying it, I don't think the belly was really worth ordering anyway! There were definitely a few things about the experience that put me off, but now that I know what to expect, I'd approach things differently next time to hopefully have a better experience. **At the end of the day, the food won me over.** I'll definitely be back for happy hour because it looks like they have a really good one!
