Cashew chicken
Marybeth M.

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.

Updated menu prices

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!
Tina M.

There is nothing fancy about this takeout restaurant, but the flavor of the food makes up for that! I had a craving for Chop Suey which can be a finicky dish if you don't have good flavor and fresh vegetables. Great Wok nailed it! I ordered the shrimp and got an easy 2 meals out of it. I wasn't thrilled with the chicken egg roll, but other than that it was a 10!

walnut shrimp, beef lo mein, sweet and sour pork, potstickers, shrimp and chicken garlic, beef fried rice, regular rice.

I have been wanting to try this restaurant for the longest time and so glad I finally got to last…read moreFriday at lunch time. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful and feels very upscale. 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 ordered the seafood jjam-pong and Genghis-khan beef. The jjam-pong was not oily like at other restaurants which I appreciated. It was very flavorful and clean tasting. The beef was delicious and savory. I couldn't finish it all and had leftovers. I would definitely go back and try many other dishes. Highly recommend!

The atmosphere is relaxed and the service is amazing. Our food came out in record time, but was still hot and tasted of high quality! I recommend coming during their lunch times, I came on a Sunday and they still offered their lunch menu. The lunch menu plates are huge! They come with your entree, soup, chow mein, rice, a crab ragoon, and an egg roll. I ordered the Kung Pao Shrimp and it was delicious. It had a slight kick, bit it wasn't too spicy. The shrimp was cooker perfectly, mot rubbery. My favorite was the egg drop soup, it had tofu in it and it was addictive. I definitely recommend checking George and Sons out!

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.

It's a small plate type of restaurant and we tried 5 different ones: 1-egg noodles with pork belly...delicious!!! The pork belly pieces were so tender and the noodles were perfect. 2-fried bamboo with sweet chili sauce...amazing! I would love to have a bag of these and just eat them like chips while watching TV...LOL! 3-stir-fry bok choy with tofu in a garlicky sauce...one of our biggest surprises of the evening! What a wonderful way to eat your greens, along with the most flavorful tofu I've ever had. (We actually ordered it twice.) 4-scallop crudo with garlic and lemon sauce...refreshing! I'm not a big scallop person, but these were so fresh and so good! 5-fried chicken with a sweet/savory dipping sauce...very good! The chicken came like wings, very crispy and juicy. Everything we had was incredible! Unfortunately, I'm allergic to curry and mango, so our choices were somewhat limited. I'm just glad we were able to find these dishes that were so awesome. The only downside is the parking. It's street parking, but there are a bunch of apartments all around, so the spots were very limited. There are some pay parking lots, but they're pretty far from the restaurant. Hubby drove around and did find a spot about a block and a half down a side street. But, to be honest, it was a nice little walk back to the car after eating. What a fun time and a delectable experience!!
