Very good food. Great portions. Awesome atmosphere Friendly people to serve. Time to go back soon !

My cousin turned me on to them to cater my moms 70th birthday party because we wanted something different. Not only was the service from Tony (owner) fantastic, the food was fabulous. I highly recommend them for whatever occasion you need. Thanks again Tony, everyone raved about the food! Look forward to coming in again when I come back to town to visit! read more

Love our neighborhood Chinese restaurant! We are never disappointed. May often waits on us and she is quick, efficient and very friendly. I have never had a dish I didn't like. Great prices and large portions. read more

I remember when this place first opened up, 8-10yrs ago and their food used to be a lot better. The last couple times I came, the service was slow, we waited quite awhile for our server to come with just the waters. I will say their boba Thai tea is my favorite drink and I always order it, and that is the one thing that has not let me down. Anyway, so the waitress took awhile to get to us and put in our orders and although the food came out fairly fast, it was cold and old tasting. I ordered the orange chicken and it was more like orange breading, only tiny bits of chicken in the actual dish. The steamed rice was good but the broccoli tasted like it had freezer burn. My son always gets their teriyaki chicken and normally doesn't have a problem finishing it but even he had stated that his food was "weird" and didnt finish much of it. Overall, I hope if I ever do come back, i will cross my fingers and hope that the food is better. read more

Okay okay... let me be real with ya'll. I DID read the SoMo review back in the day when it first came out. Now, I had my Bay Area hopes & dreams and yeah - was a little disappoitned. But for real. It's a nice place. I hate it when reviews hype a place up only to be disappoitned because it wasn't cracked up to what it was supposed to be even though what it was - was actually really nice. With that said. This is by FAR the nicest chinese resturant in this area! For real... show me a place that is more authentic AND more clean AND has better service THAT is in the South Mountain area. If you can... I'll give u $20! If you do decide to go, you MUST try the Won Ton Soup! I love everything, the single shrimp that's always perfectly cooked with the aromatic broth with the stuffed won tons. It's my version of heaven. I always go here for the soup. Some other favorite dishes are the Hunan chicken which has the right amount of spice and the baby corn is to die for! If you're not too adventerous then the Sweet & Sour is also good as is the Beef & Broccoli. I TOTALLY dig the Mongolian Beef which was suggested to me by a very friendly server. I am so inlove with the decor and the teal plates and matching salt & pepper shakers and soy sauce pourer and platters. But as a big girl, I must admit... the chairs could be a lil more sterdier. I'm always scared that this is going to be the time I finally brake a chair! The menus are hard to read because of the frosty page covers. I always press the hazy plastic page protectors firmly over the paper and that usually makes it easier to read. But all in all, it's a very nice place. I have taken quite a few of my friends there and have become somewhat of a regular. I have yet to finish a cup of water and soda because the servers are so attentative that they bring a fresh cup before my first one was even gone! The servers have always been willing to take special orders for me and are always willing to chime in on what they think the best dish is (when asked). I really love this place! :) read more

On 3/3/15,My family and I went to eat at Sun Asian Kitchen, this is not my first time eating here, nor my family's first time. My food was good , service was good, but cleanliness, not so good, and the Sushi was fresh but HORRIBLY PREPARED. Also, I hate restaurants with fake plants. If you have the fake plants please clean the whole plant not just the part you think your customers can see. The table next to us found a, cockroach in their drink. YES, A COCKROACH and then they did not want to refund their dinner, just comp the drink. HORRIBLE The sushi was good and fresh... but the rolls were loose, which caused the rice to fall off the roll. Who ever is creating the recipes for the rolls needs to be fired. The Teriyaki chicken roll and shogun beef roll needs to be discontinued or redone. There was no visual appeal to the sushi besides it looking fresh, no garnish to add color or different textures to the sushi. So I will not be visiting SUN ASIAN KITCHEN, NO MORE, YOU LOST ME WITH THE COCKROACH... read more

Tried this place for the first time tonight. We ordered 7 different appetizers and one egg foo young. It was a ton of food and I only paid 34 dollars. All the appetizers were happy hour price. I highly, highly recommend it. In fact, I kinda wish we didn't order an entree because we got full off appetizers. But the waitstaff was lovely and the place is a lot cheerier than you would expect. I only knocked off a star because the booth was a little hard on the rear and the boba balls were a little mushy. Lol at that sentence. All in all I had a good experience. My recommendation: squid salad! read more

I have to admit I am pleasantly surprised by this place. It's down on Baseline and I just don't know that I am a fan of this area. However, my new residence is here with my love, so I need to find places where I can get some sake bombers and sushi and not become illegal whilst driving home. I came here, honestly, because of the star rating by my fellow yelpers. Figured the worst that could happen is being poisoned by what one should probably not eat in a desert anyway or I could find good, quality, sushi and have that close to my new home. I love happy hour; cheap drinks and pretty good menu but not any real special rolls on the happy hour menu. That said I find the regular menu to not be badly priced & the staff is sweet end accommodating. I have since ordered take out Chinese and that is good too. I'm impressed because this side if town is lacking in places to really eat that I end up liking enough to return to. However, I am a fan! PS- they have boba and $1 egg rolls .. Get in it.. Mushi mushi ;-) read more

Friendly staff, love their egg drop soup! I have been coming here for the past 10years+. I also love to order their pad thai that has a good amount of kick and crunch with the peanuts. Mangollian beef is so tender and has a perfect sweet sauce. I can go on and on about their variety of menu selections! read more

Sun Asia is not a 5-Star restaurant, but for what it is, I give it 5 stars. They have probably the best happy hour I have ever seen that lasts from 3pm-7pm then 9pm-Close, and is SEVEN DAYS A WEEK. The HH menu includes single pieces of sushi for $0.99, rolls for $3, and a variety of other fried appetizers for a few bucks (including fried tofu and vegetable dumplings that are vegan friendly) in addition to a ton of cheap ass booze. You can get a sake bomber with Kirin/Kirin Light for $3.85. Beers (domestic and import) are under $2, cocktails are $5, and they even have scorpion bowls! The staff has been very friendly and quick to answer questions, and the service is always quick. The decor is totally funky inside, which I personally like. it has a lot of character. They also have a really nice patio that is great for beautiful days and day drinking! Their regular menu is really expansive and I've only had the kung pao tofu, but it was really good. They have free delivery with a $25 minimum, but only specific hours. M-F 11a-3p/5p-8p and Sat/Sun 12-8p. You can fax or email your order in too, which I think is pretty cool. Delivery is from 16th ave - 48th street, Broadway to Dobbins. Thank god we have Sun Asia because there is practically nothing else in South Phoenix. Definitely hit this place up if you are in the area!!! read more

Food is typical greasy American "Chinese" food. Sushi is horrible, I ordered a Alaskan roll and when it was brought to me I had to ask what roll I got thinking they gave me the wrong one. I sent it back after they confirmed it was what I ordered. The manager tried to harass me into getting something else or I would still have to pay for the sushi I didn't eat. Then to make things worse my waiter asked me if I needed change when I gave him a $20 for a $8 bill and when he does give me change he gives me 2 $5. Really?!! Will never make the mistake of coming here again. read more

My sister and I come here all the time for sushi. Every visit was left with a full palette and happy smiles. Its really hard to find a good sushi joint around Phoenix and this place does the job. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. Happy hour prices are amazing. Especially if your a big sushi eater the happy hour is a great time to show up. Never had anything on the menu that was disappointing yet. If you dont feel like eating sushi this place also has a Chinese menu. read more

We're all clear that wanting to like something is not the same as liking it, right? Well, I want to love this place. It's the closest non-take out Chinese food place to my house so I was completely ready to make this "My Chinese Restaurant". Unfortunately it doesn't quite live up to the hype. It is all good. It's fine. Some parts better than others. Entrees are in the $8 range for chicken/beef dishes, in the $16 range for seafood and they offer a few specialty dishes up to the early $20's. They have a decent section of vegetarian things as well, but less than you might expect at a Chinese restaurant. There was more "sweet" in the sesame chicken than in the Orange chicken - and they looked far too much like the same thing. The interior is kinda cool with funky lamps, window hangings and lots of bamboo. For a spot that size the bar, where you can also sit and eat, is a bit too big for me - but just because those 2 big screen tv's are pointing out to the rest of the restaurant so we can't help but be reminded it's there. The service? Not so bueno. I've been there 3 times and once it was good, but not great. The other times have been pretty off each time. I read a great review about the place by a professional reviewer claiming that it was similar to San Francisco Chinese food fare. I'm guessing he's wrong, but I wanted to put it out here for other folks to see. http://www.somonews.com/article.cfm?articleID=242 I'd love to hear what you Bay area transplants have to say... read more

Solid lunch deals, which turn out to be quite tasty. You can get in and out in under an hour for around 8$ with tip :)

Had only been there once years ago and the interior was blah, but now it looks great and the food was yummy.

There's some harsh reviews of this place but I don't have an issue with it really. Price is normal for dinner places, the staff are not the nicest people out there but if you sit and eat they are nice and quick with soda/tea refills and removing plates. They have a happy hour (I think it's every day) from 4-7 where all their appetizers (lots of em) are half off. If I get there before 7, which I try to, I usually only order a bunch of different appetizers so I have like 4-5 different things to eat... I like it. Their orange chicken is bomb too! read more

I've been to Sun Asian before, but that was pre-Yelp. So I was excited to go home and share this experience with all my Yelp friends. We get to the restaurant just after 11am - it's dead, if the TVs weren't on I could have heard chirping. We got seated, the hostes was very nice and took our order right away. Not even 2 minutes had passed when she brought out our meal...wow, what service. I orderd the Orange Chicken and enjoyed the texture and taste. The chicken meat was tender and the batter was crisp. Enjoyed my meal and would come again! read more

The staff are very friendly. Pad Thai, egg rolls, chicken lettuce raps were all great! I also got a crispy shrimp roll which traveled well. I would recommend this place for sure read more

Good food have never actually eaten hete just get carry out, only complaint is the containers they use they leak all over half the sause is in the bag ny the time you get home. read more

Great food for the price and love the cashier. I can't remember her name but she always has jokes when I come to pick-up my order.

They had different verity of food and I must order the wrong one, it was a little slaty but still good, ill be back and try a different thing next time, and they have boba drinks which I love. read more

Casual Asian restaurant around our neighborhood. The service can be a hot or miss. I gotten bad service and other times it's been exceptional. We always order different foods and it's always been good. The sushi is decent. It's kid friendly so it's a plus! There's a bar to sit, dine in or patio seating. If you live near by and don't want to drive far this might be a good option. read more

Sun Asian Kitchen - Honey shrimp lunch special & Shrimp fried rice - Chinese Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Just got back from having lunch here... Been many times in the last year for lunch, take out, ect. We will NOT be back!!! Went for lunch... got my usual of kung pao tofu with white rice and veggie egg roll. My husband ordered 2 pc. tuna nigiri, 2 pc. salmon nigiri, 2 pc. yellowtail nigiri. The reason he ordered this is because walking in there was a big dry erase board above the sushi chef and it said, "Daily special Nigiri 99 cent/ 1 pc. Yellowtail $1.50/ 1 pc." When we ordered we specified that he was getting the daily special and how many of each kind. When we got the bill he was charged $16 for 6 pc of sushi when it should have been $7. When I pointed out the mistake I was told that the white board special is happy hour specials. I pointed out that no where on the white board did it specify that there was a time that the specials were good for. I also pointed out that it was specified at the time of order that we were getting the daily special and pointed with my finger to the white board. The woman still charged us the $16. She got a $0 tip. Well Sun Asian, you just lost a big local customer. You will never see us again. read more

I would give this place 5 stars if their service is consistent, but it's not. Many places try to be what this place does well, asian fusion. Authentic flavors and good prices. This is my go to lunch spot. read more

Tony is a great example of a good owner he is friendly hard working and maintains a great restaurant. Mongolian beef is delicious and they have great sake homer specials and it seems like it's always happy hour. It has been a welcome place to come relax after work and get good food with cheap drinks. Make sure to stop by or order out either way you will receive great service! read more

I would like to write a review about sun Asian kitchen. Me and my husband have been there several times and there's been no problem but today we went and we have been running to the bathroom every since. we called the restaurant to let them know that we were not feeling good in what we had and we were told that is not their policy to give refunds we would have to go to the hospital save the food and have them tested to see if that's what made us sick. Not only was my husband and I see my granddaughter also was running to the bathroom it will be a long time before I go back read more

Great happy hour prices with a good size happy hour menu. The food is average, but on the cheaper side as well. If you want good sushi on a budget, this is your place. Avocado boats and Philly rolls are my favorite here. They do have most of your typical Asian cuisine as well. Ambiance is nice, casual dining, good for groups, kid friendly. read more

in 2012 i used to work near here and this was one of our lunch spots. This place is a bargain. A+ in customer service. Outdoor patio. Our meal consisted of: Sake / Saporo Big bowl of alcohol it was a bit on the weak side, I couldn't really taste the alcohol or the sugar. Orange chicken is dripping with sauce. Kung Poa beef is full of rich vegetables however I would've liked a bit more beef. Family size rice bowl. Tuna roll was ok. No fancy presentation just rice covered seaweed stuffed with tuna. bbq pork appetizer was cooked a little too rare for me. Final tab 42 + tip and 3 happy customers. read more

Came in on a weekend for dinner. I was impressed by the happy hour- decent deals on sake and appetizers (mostly fried delights such as egg rolls and rangoon). Ordered the crab rangoons (yummy! Loved the sauces too) and the spicy salmon roll (sloppy, not all that appealing). Shared the General Tso Chicken and fried rice with my husband. Good fried rice and the breading on the chicken was perfect, but the dish was swimming in sauce. if you are looking for an average Chinese place and want to have a nice sit-down meal, this is about as good as it gets in South Phx. read more

As always amazing food. NEVER disappointed with my Shrimp Lo Mein, or my Shrimp fried rice. They are always fresh. Amazing quality food for a reasonable price. read more

Decent Chinese food rained upon by poor, awkward service. I've been coming here on occasion over the last three years, but I don't eat-in anymore. I used to dine in really often because it's close by, but I got tired of all the waiting. Each time I went I ended up waiting too long for my food, my drink, the check, etc. Not only that, the employees don't socialize too well with customers. It's hard to discern if they're rude or just don't grasp how badly they're interacting with people, as though smiling might make their face crack. It's a little creepy. The last time I was there I was waiting 17 minutes for the bill when I had elsewhere to be, so I decided not to dine in anymore as a result. That and the Egg Foo Yung that they make is pretty much an omelet as opposed to a patty. It was a doubly disappointing experience that night. Meanwhile, as a Take-Out restaurant they are pretty good. The food is vastly better at Golden Phoenix, but the physical plant of Sun-Asian is pretty nice itself. Actually, it's gorgeous and it has great outdoor seating as well. Not exactly comfortable seating, but aesthetically pleasing. The sushi is passable and it feels awkwardly forced on the establishment as though it was a measure taken to compete with the nearby Pan-Asia. Their small portions, high prices and poor quantities ensure I'll have my raw fish elsewhere. It has all the practicality of a cat with a calculator; it doesn't add up. Heh. They tend to be good with chicken dishes, but aside from an outstanding physical plant with typically poor service they have little else aside from great eggrolls to offer to Eat in at your own peril and have nothing else planned for your day because they aren't in a hurry to get you the bill. Be safe, do take-out instead. read more

If you're desperate for some asian food and have time to wait....eat here. Staff is rude and seemed to make customers a inconvenience.Food is mediocre. Wait to be seated is pretty fast, but to get served and checked out takes a while. So bring a book. Greasy, fried, soggy food. Got the orange chicken and was disappointed. Had upset stomach. Such a bummer. Won't suggest anyone to go. read more

My family and I absolutely enjoy the good tasting food at an affordable price. We visit at least once a month because we don't live in the area. Servers are friendly and very attentive. Quick service and never had any issues with the food, service, or establishment itself. Nice spot to get some good sushi, appetizers, and drinks at reasonable prices. Happy hour is awesome!!! read more

Sun Asian has an eclectic decor that makes me think of what would happen if a foreign tourist had dinner once in a PF Changs, then tried to re-create it from memory a decade later. It attempts to be trendy but ends up looking like a loft apartment that was well-decorated, then occupied by someone's grandmother who didn't have the best taste. It is at least open and airy, though. It is a semi-regular lunch spot for me and my co-workers, since it is really easy to get tired of going to Chipotle over and over on the corner of 24th and Baseline, and I refuse to go to Ono Hawaiian Grill. Yuck. The staff is generally friendly and chipper, if a bit too informal. On a couple of occasions I have had to wait a while to be greeted at my table, but 90% of the time it is a quick in and out lunch. The food is average-to-decent chinese fare with average sushi and a couple of other asian cuisines thrown in. It is nothing earth-shattering, but it is reliably decent. I always order the veggies in garlic sauce, but substitute crispy fried tofu. The fried tofu is always well-seasoned and cooked just right. The rice is, let's be honest, mediocre shopping center chinese restaurant rice, but it is perfectly acceptable. It is a great place to grab lunch for 7 or 8 bucks. read more

GREAT Chinese Restaurant. I love a restaurant that stays consistent with the quality of their food. This place does it! My family and I have stopped in at least 6 times over the last year and have enjoyed their menu. From their delicious chicken egg-rolls to their sushi, we walk out full and satisfied. Sun Asian Kitchen is #1 read more

Every time I have ever eaten at this establishment the food has been phenomenal. No matter how busy the place is, the waitresses are quick, efficient and always have a smile on their face. The sushi is fresh and never tastes fishy, and the happy hour prices work great for someone on a budget that doesn't want to skimp on the taste. Bottom line, best place in town in my book! read more

The food here is great. The service is quick. The prices are reasonable. I highly recommend it!
