So I have debated coming here for almost a year... with a name like Soya I thought it was a fancier…read moreplace and I never wanted to dress up and go. But I was hungry for Chinese this Tuesday and my favorite place is closed that day so I decided to go search Soya out. And search is what I had to do! Even my 2 GPS apps sent me to the wrong place by a block or so... it's in a strip mall just where Airport goes Into Montana. Now my GPS' said it was the strip mall BEFORE the one it actually is.. but as I decided to keep going I found the only entrance AND exit to another strip mall and as I was looking at all the business names across the top of the Mall I see the word "SOYA". So I pull over to it and the parking lot is packed, but one place is opening up under the sign so I wait and get that place. On the windows it's painted "Chinese Restaurant". So this must be the place. As you walk in, you first see, it's a hole in the wall. Plan walls. Boxes stacked around. No AC working so two HUGE black portable air converters blowing loud but cooler air across the 7-8 tables in the place. Only 4tops with 4 chairs each. About 3 tables were occupied when I showed up. There is a counter towards the back.. I walked to it because it had menu's spread out on the top and I thought maybe you order, pay and go sit down ... but the lady wanted to know if I was here for pickup, I kindly told her no, I wanted to eat inside. So she said pick any table and they would come to me. So I did. She came quickly. Took my Drink order and left a menu. It was typical "Chinese" faire. Lunch specials range from $8.75-$10.75 or so. Each entree comes with fried or steamed rice. If you want soup or egg rolls that costs more. Most places I go those items are included, so if you get those things you will spend a bit more here. I was a bit disappointed in the egg roll. It had no pork or shrimp or any protein. It was more like a spring roll. Just veggies. The egg drop soup was super yummy. The right kind of texture, color and amount of eggs. And good flavor. They barely give you any crispy strips for it, but at least you get some.. I got Mongolian Beef with no heat. And fried rice. And it was amazing. Nice bite size chunks of beef. Good amount of Green peppers and other veggies. Mushrooms were a little too thin, could have been sliced not so thin so as to be more of a flavor contributor to the dish. The fried rice was AMAZING. You could taste the "wok char" in the rice, this was actually fried and not just doused in soy sauce. It was delicious. Best I've had since Hunan on Mesa. The place is very small, very plan, no Chinese lanterns or dragons or Buddha's, a true hole in the wall place... making pretty Good Chinese food.

Service was fine. I ordered orange chicken and asked if it was breast or thigh meat. I was told…read morethigh but if I paid extra they would use white meat. So I ordered. When it came there were a few small pieces of breast meat but the rest was thigh. When I asked she said, yes they added a few breast meat pieces but they used thighs meat for the rest. The sauce was great but I hate thigh meat and felt cheated. They still charged me the extra. Will not go back.

The most unfriendly staff ever! Didn't smile, greet us or even bring menus until asked. Took drink order then came back 5 minutes later with no drinks and asked if we were ready to place food order. Then took order and came back with drinks. Food came out one plate at a time as ready. She forgot one of the dishes for about ten minutes. It got busier and never came back. Had to get up to ask for to go containers and the check. The place was nice and the food was tasty. But do not see myself going back. Too many other good Chinese food spots with much better service and cleaner. I forgot to mention the egg rolls were my favorite! Reminded me of Brooklyn.

We live in Las Cruces where we don't have any decent Chinese restaurants. A dear friend of ours…read morerecommended this place as they often dine there so my wife and I stopped by on May 21. We got there around 11:30 and the place, that it is small was empty. The server got happy when we told her that we got recommended by a friend from Las Cruces. She told us that they were preparing a large to go order so we just arrived on time. She explained a few things on the extensive menu and pointed out to their lunch specials that cost $8.85. My wife ordered the Teriyaki chicken and I ordered the Tofu Homestyle option. The price includes a soup and either steamed or fried rice. The platter was generous, we liked specially the Hot & Sour Soup. After we arrived several customers came to eat there as well as picking up food. The server was fantastic, on of the best we ever had; very pleasant, fast and courteous. We will be back soon.

We had the Shrimp w/ blackbean sauce, BBQ pork egg foo young, Spicy fried rice and spring rolls. All of items were delicious and the servings were very generous. The Spicy fried rice was quite a treat and highly recommended as an introduction to the chefs capabilities. Service was amazing and treated us like "regulars" on our first visit. Our new favorite spot in El Paso for authentic Chinese cuisine.

If you don't feel like paying outrageous buffet food prices, go for the lunch specials! I say…read moreoutrageous buffet prices, because they went up again in prices for both lunch and dinner. Drink not included. I looked at the lunch specials from 11-4pm and they have a good variety. Depending on what you get, you will pay either 9.99 or 10.99, and it comes with an egg roll, white or fried rice. I got the sesame chicken for 9.99 with fried rice and and egg roll. I paid extra for my Won Tom Soup which I love here! Did I get full? Yes and I took the rest home.

The last day in 915/El Paso for Christmas family time so wife and I do everything possible to visit…read moreour favorite places to eat. The business is located in a small strip mall where parking is limited. As you enter, you are taken to your table and given menus. We truly enjoy the fresh noodles ( order them when you visit) We started with egg rolls which dont have a hard shell. Mother of Cashew ordered Orange chicken with noodles and i ordered the combination plate of noodles. While waiting, they had techno music looping which was a bit annoying. The food quickly arrived and upon bite one the fresh taste burst. I had some of the orange chicken and the chicken wasn't as good as my noodles. The actual chicken had no flavor once you get past the orange covering. When you add the red pepper sauce at the table it only enhances the flavor. It's a tad pricy ($41 w/waters) for two plates yet the flavor made it worth the trip when we returned home.

After waiting over 5-10 minutes with no acknowledgment, no explanation of the delay, and no offer to take my information or schedule me, I left and will not be returning. Specific issues I experienced: * No greeting or check-in process for walk-ins; I had to approach the counter multiple times just to be noticed. * Staff appeared indifferent to my presence and gave no estimate of wait time or reason for the delay. * When I finally asked for help, I was told curtly that they were "busy" and that I should "wait to be seated," with no attempt to assist or offer alternatives. * The overall atmosphere felt dismissive and unwelcoming, especially for customers without appointments. I understand that walk-ins can be challenging during peak hours, but basic courtesy, acknowledging customers, providing wait-time estimates, and offering options, would have made a significant difference. As it stands, this experience has lost my business and, based on how I was treated, I cannot recommend this location to others.
