Had lunch here today since they were one of the few places open on a Sunday, which was nice. Despite what has been written in previous reviews, the lady that waited on me was not so friendly when I first arrived. She was kind of short and snippy when I told here I wanted to eat in and not take it to go. She warmed up and redeemed herself by the end of my visit. I ordered the lunch special Yu Shang Pork. The food came out piping hot and had clearly been made to order. All of the ingredients were fresh, but it was WAY too sweet. Like syrup sweet. I asked for some extra hot mustard, which helped a bit, but barely made it edible. The soup was good, the fried wonton and crab puff were pretty good too. The chicken eggroll I ordered was pretty dry and lacked flavor. I will try the veggie eggroll on a future visit. Finally, I had water to drink since they did not have any hot tea. I will certainly try again. I will be sure to pick something more familiar so that I can hopefully avoid the over sweet issue.

Cashew chicken

Amazing that it took us so long to find this place. It's a little hole in the wall in a strip mall. Plenty of convenient parking. You can sit and eat but I think most people take out. If you eat there it is styrofoam and plastic plates and utensils. The service is wonderful and they are so friendly. It's obvious as we sat there that they gave many loyal regulars. Food comes out quickly - and it's piping hot and very tasty. We started with hot and sour soup. The color was lighter than we were used too, but flavor, texture and spiciness were perfect. We had almond chicken and king pao chicken. Both were very good. We found our new Chinese food place. And I just want to reiterate that it's a BONUS to do business with nice people. These people are so kind and courteous. YUMMY FOOD.

Egg drop soup and wonton soup
Ernie J.

Some of the best classic Chinese weve had in years! Everything was super hot, fresh and made to order. The highlights were the egg drop & wonton soup and the house lo mein was epic! Three kings was delicious and full of perfectly cooked plump shrimp. The pork egg foo young was really good ...could've been a bit crispier though but the gravy was DELICIOUS. All the ladies working there were sweet and attentive. We will definitely return!

Orange Chicken
Katie R.

I got orange chicken and Wor Wonton to go. I enjoyed both. The chicken had a little kick to it. I always order Wor Wonton Soup at any Chinese restaurant. It was good. I will say I had gotten takeout about 8 years ago and wasn't impressed, so maybe that was an off night. Glad I gave them another try.

Best Chinese food spot in the Ahwatukee area. If you are a native Ahwatukeeians, circa 1991ish, you'll remember Abacus Inn that was on Elliott and 48th in the Safeway plaza; Great Wok is comprobale to them and they were the bomb. I usually get the sweet and sour chicken and the house lo mein. Big portions, feeds a family of 4 easily (two teenage kids), great taste, nice service and the prices are reasonable.

Shrimp Chop Suey...yum!

Upgrading one star, as I have given them another few chances and they're OK for the Tuke.

The food is consistently outstanding, and the warm, attentive service keep us coming back time and time again. On this visit, we ordered the sautéed whole lobster with green onions and ginger, beef lo mein, shrimp lo mein, walnut shrimp, and fried rice. Every dish was prepared beautifully and packed with flavor, but the lobster was truly divine. Perfectly cooked, incredibly tender, and infused with the aromatic flavors of fresh ginger and green onions, it was one of those dishes that leaves a lasting impression long after the meal is over. The beef and shrimp lo mein were equally delicious, with rich savory flavors and generous portions, while the walnut shrimp was perfectly crisp with a delicate sweetness that balanced the dish beautifully. The fried rice was the perfect complement to everything on the table. We also enjoyed a few sake bombers, which are hands down the best we've had anywhere. They are always perfectly prepared and have become a must-order whenever we visit. They pair wonderfully with the food and add an extra touch of fun to an already fantastic dining experience. What truly sets China Chili apart is its consistency. Whether it's your first visit or your hundredth, you can always count on exceptional food, attentive service, and genuine hospitality. The staff is welcoming, friendly, and always makes us feel like valued guests.

It's probably the fanciest Chinese restaurant I've been to in AZ. The lunch menu is excellent and quite impressive! There are 8 entrees to choose along with a side for only $20. What's crazy is that a full size seafood and wagyu beef belly jjampong is a side! They're regularly $24 so it's a crazy deal to get an additional entree!! We ordered seafood jjampong and wagyu beef jjampong as sides and genghis khan beef and chili garlic fried chicken as mains. The jjampong had that great umami taste without the oiliness that's unavoidable at other restaurants. The ingredients felt very premium and fresh. Ghengis khan beef pieces were very generous and tender with a savory sauce. Chili garlic chicken was a tad salty for me but had great crisp. Service was impeccable and one you'd expect from an upscale restaurant. I can't wait to go back to try other dishes from the lunch menu. I also want to try their happy hour that's available everyday from 4-7PM. All the food items are only $7 and variety looks amazing.

I ventured inside on this lovely Sunday, noting a delightfully serene dining room with only a few select patrons present. I was instantly received by a charming young woman at the counter who extended a remarkably friendly greeting. While my initial impression of the layout was conservative, the hospitality quickly evolved into something genuinely impressive. They also feature a beautifully appointed small bar that crafts cocktails, which adds a sophisticated touch. I escorted myself to an excellent table and requested a bowl of Egg Drop Soup to enjoy while engaging in a brief, lovely conversation with the attentive staff. The preparation was entirely satisfactory. While the interior architecture and decor are not quite as grand in scale as I had initially envisioned, the aesthetic is tastefully curated and not bad at all. For my main course, I selected the Mongolian Beef from the menu a splendid choice, and beautifully priced at $14.85. The gentleman assisting us throughout the afternoon was an absolute credit to the establishment, executing his duties with flawless precision. When the entrée arrived, the flavor profile and presentation left me completely satisfied. Between the exemplary service and the delicious culinary execution, it was an absolute treat. I shall most certainly be returning to this delightful sanctuary

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.

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.

Given the landlocked area and dearth of Asian markets, I have so much respect and awe that they dont hold back on lemongrass and all the thai spices in both of the food and cocktails. Loud, modern, and hip scene even on a Wednesday night. 45 min to 1 hour wait if you attempt walk in but we did reservations just a week prior. We opted for indoors since we visited in June heat and that was a great decision as we were sat in the back clubhouse which felt like a secret cocktail club. Btw, if you reserve indoors or outdoors, they will hold you to it. Save room for their hibiscus and lemongrass creme brûlée that has the perfect crust and smooth texture. Even if you can't take a lot of spice, they did a great job sharing what dishes would still work. Appreciated the thoughtful text ahead of time to arrive early for parking because yes, it's extremely challenging in that area even though my dad has a disabled placard. Just go here. So worth it.

It tastes even better with that Thai chili sauce. I didn't take the photos of all the other dishes but they were all super delicious.

It took a really long time for one of my friends' dishes to come. But when we checked with them, we were told "it will come when it's ready." I understand that they were busy at that moment. But they could have told us in a better way. Overall, I always look forward to dinning here. And this is definitely one of the best Thai restaurants in Phoenix!
