This is our go to spot when we are craving orange chicken and lemon chicken. We also like grilled pork and grilled chicken. My favorites are Taiwanese rice noodle stir fried and egg drop soup. The perk of redeeming free food once you made enough purchase is nice. Always short line but food is fresh.

Not sure if I should even eat this lol

This is beyond awful. I'm pretty sure none of this was real food. So many issues. First, it's located in a Bashas, which I didn't know or else I would have stayed clear from this place. I get there and no one is behind the counter. Ok fine, it gives me time to see a sign that says text this number and get a free appetizer. Not bad. Actually it was the worst marketing and terrible idea with the worst execution I've ever seen. The sweet lady comes out from the back. You can see what I got from my food pic. Issues number 2, they had what seemed to look like leftovers from the lunch crowd. 3 or 4 trays where food usually goes, we're all empty. The rest of the food just looking amazing under the heat lamp. Ugh. Third, I ask for my free app because I sent a text message and got the notification. Good think I have 3 numbers and I chose one I don't use so they didn't get too much info. I ask for the crab Rangoon appetizer and she gives me ONE crab Rangoon!!!! One? I give you my info and I get One??? Don't think I'm complaining about free food but come on, one what kind of nonsense offer is that? It was crazy to me. At least give me 2 for all the hassle everyone has to go thru. Sometimes free isn't always good either. Number 4, the food was actually pretty terrible, but I was so hungry I didn't have time to go to another location. So at the end of it all, the only thing good I got was the fortune cookie message. I will never go here again. I hope I'm not going to get sick or puke later. Also, Bashas should vet their vendors a bit more carefully. Not a good representation and I wouldn't want to be affiliated with this.

Roach in Taiwanese Rice Noodles

I ordered the rice noodles and I noticed something didn't look right. At first I thought it was a burnt piece of onion but then it looked like LEGS AND BODY!!! There was a ROACH in my noodles! NEVER eating here ever again... Literally threw up every bite I took!!!

Orange chicken and sweet n sour pork combo.

Food tastes old. The staff at the Rice Garden seem to be impatient and just want you to hurry up and order or be gone.

Hao Hao is located in The Block at Pima Center plaza. There was chatter on the Next Door app…read moreabout a possible rumor that this restaurant had closed. We found out that the staff closed for vacation. One of the staff thought there was a note on the door stating their vacation closure. Maybe, maybe not. We'll never know and we're happy the place was still in business. We arrived early with 2 patrons finishing up their meal. We got chicken with black bean sauce, no spice. They do offer a spicy version of this dish if you so desire. Service is super fast especially when there are no other patrons. The meal was good. My slight complaint is the amount of green peppers vs chicken pieces. Green peppers do not agree with me so they were all pushed to the side. We will get a veggie dish or something else next time. Shared parking lot.

Decided to try again after a year+ It's really a strange…read morerestaurant. They now have tablecloths and you can get beer and wine. They only put a fork with a thin napkin. They really need more help as Service is pretty much nonexistent. The owner waited on us. He's very pleasant. I think an issue besides not having enough help whether it's in the kitchen or a servers is they're doing a very brisk takeout business along with trying to serve dine in guests. I was observing people that were lined up to take out their food and many of them were waiting 30 minutes or more. . also, there are two areas where they are serving, which is bizarre. We thought the food was good. Would like to go back, but we arrived about 515 and finally started getting food an hour later. Next time we'll go at 4:30.!

first off, service was great!! no issues at all with that, the food was just VERY very bland. i got…read moremiso soup & spicy edamame to start off - miso soup tasted watered down & spicy edamame had no flavor to it. i then got the vegetable spicy wok n roll entree with an upgrade to udon noodles, that also was VERY bland & had no spice whatsoever & i even asked the server if it is spicy or just some spices added., she told me it would be spicer than the other options. (not her fault she is a server not a cook & i appreciated her giving me feedback). i even added sriracha & chili oil & it still was very unflavorful. the texture was good everything was cooked correctly just very bland that i only took three bites. i took it togo knowing i can add seasoning at home & obviously tipped 20% as the service was great & not their fault i didn't like the food, but just keep this all in mind if you decide to try it! i make my own udon noodles-miso soup- & edamame at home often & it's very hard to mess up the flavor so idk if it was an off day, but definitely wouldn't order any of those options again. i know i could of said the food didn't taste good, but the server was busy & i felt bad as someone who has worked in the restaurant industry for 8 years now as a server/linecook/manager. i wish it tasted better than it was because the ambiance was amazing as well!! i feel like its easy fixes to make it more flavorful. if you aren't use to Japanese or Chinese cuisine im sure it would be good, but someone who eats it often it did not have the expected/known flavor it does elsewhere. to the owner, i did not keep my receipt so i cant show proof but i am being honest & did dine in on 9/28 around 1pm. i sat at the bar top & got two drinks plus the three food items.

Best Chinese food around! And yet I drive 45 minutes because it's not "around" where we live…read more I have no idea how it's been five years of coming to this restaurant that I didn't write a review. The food is outstanding, the service is beyond perfection, and we are never disappointed. Never! And I don't use that word lightly. Sarah is always our server and she is incredible! I just can't say enough about her. We appreciate all she does. And the bus boys are always friendly and on top of your water, iced tea, and clearing the table after each phase of the meal. Our go two items are first the New York egg roll. You cannot go wrong. We've also had many of their soups, which come with fresh fried wontons, sweet-and-sour and mustard sauce. We enjoy a nose-running mix (lol) of these two items, but yours doesn't have to be. And if you like shrimp, these jumbo shrimp will not disappoint. Our go to is always the sweet and pungent shrimp. It's incredible. Lightly fried, we can't come here without ordering them. The next go-to is the beef chow fun. You can order it with any meat, but this is our favorite. The meat is so tender. I absolutely love this noodle dish! They also have low mein, which is also delicious, but the chow fun we have to order at every visit. Next is their dried green beans. Perfectly cooked and fried, just enough that they're still crispy. They are so flavorful! My other favorite is their chicken and black bean sauce. On this trip, we didn't order it, I ordered the shrimp with snow peas. Both are incredible. I think one of the most impressive parts of this establishment is that the owner and manager always comes to every table, at some point during your meal. From start to finish this place is just perfection. I've tried, on multiple occasions, to get them to open a place out in Verrado - Buckeye Arizona, which is where we live, but to no avail. But I will never give up!

The chicken was crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and had a great flavor. The broth in the wonton soup was clean, light, and delicious. My only disappointment was the wontons themselves. They were hallowed no filling, which isn't what I expected from wonton soup. Is that normal for this place or was it a mistake? (I'm not sure if that was a mistake or just how they prepare it, but it kept the meal from being excellent.) The packaging was also good everything arrived hot, secure, and nothing leaked or spilled. Overall I'd rate it a 7.5 out of 10

I've been to China Chili three times now, so I can safely say it's my favorite Chinese restaurant…read morein town. On my most recent visit, I stopped by on a Friday evening for dinner. They have complimentary parking in the front, side, and back of the restaurant. There aren't a ton of spots, but there's street parking close by too. Ambiance (3.5/5): Like most Chinese restaurants, China Chili is pretty no frills. Which isn't a problem for me at all, I'm there for the food. It's a spacious restaurant with both regular tables and circular tables that rotates (good for large groups sharing dishes). Service (4/5): Fantastic service is also not something I expect at a Chinese restaurant. Yet again, I'm there for the food. With that being said, service, while not overly friendly, is typically pretty efficient. Which I always appreciate. Drinks (4/5): Pretty much your standard soft drinks, tea, and a limited selection of alcoholic beverages. My favorite option is their buddha beer which you don't see in a lot of places. It's a lager and it's in a buddha-shaped bottle. It doesn't get much better than that. Food (5/5): The first time I came was for one of my favorite dishes... Peking duck. There aren't a ton of spots in Phoenix that have it, but out of the ones that do, China Chili serves it at a high level. You can go with either crepes or baos (additional surcharge). The duck is absolutely to die for. Flavorful, juicy meat with crispy skin that fits in perfectly into your mini "sandwich" with green onions and Hoisin sauce. For a reasonable price too. Their food outside of duck is of a similar quality. I especially like their flat noodles with beef. Even classic dishes like sesame chicken have a twist here. It's sliced chicken rather than fully breaded chicken. Just as good as the typical way, the sauce is delicious. My only complaint? They give you a pretty small helping of white rice with your dish. Outside of that, the portions are generous. Everything I've had at China Chili has been a hit. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

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.
