This restaurant is just around the corner from us but we rarely go there. We went for dinner and the service was good, the food was good but we weren't wowed. We ordered the lettuce wraps to start and they were flavorful and the lettuce was fresh. We also ordered a thai curry noodle with chicken and shrimp and the honey pecan chicken. The noodle dish was ok but made amazing because of the in house made chili sauce. The highlight of the honey pecan chicken was clearly the candied pecans. The chicken was tender and sauced well but lacked that umami flavor. Will we be back? Only time will tell read more

This is a hard one because I don't like doing reviews like this. This was my first time here. I got the mongolian beef, but I substituted the beef for chicken instead. I also ordered the chicken lo-mein. I was surprisingly shocked how bland everything was from the chicken to the noodles. Especially for the mongolian sauce. It didn't have that pop at all. I really wanted to like this, but I was just disappointed. I'll come back and maybe try another dish. Maybe it was just one of those days for the them. read more

The sushi was decent but not my favorite. Took a while to come out despite there hardly being anyone eating at that time (Saturday at 7). The service was friendly and the restaurant was clean. I've had other things on the menu before but this was my first time trying their sushi. Will definitely come back but stick to other dishes aside from sushi. We tried an assortment of sushi and also the special roll for the day. The special was tasty and had great texture! read more

Nice place, good food, but vegetarians beware! I asked if the Hot & Sour Soup was vegetarian, and the waitress assured me that it was. I asked what base was used to make the soup, and she replied "Chicken". What??? I said that if it was chicken, then it was NOT vegetarian. She looked confused and asked if I wanted her to ask the chef. I said yes. She went to the kitchen and returned, saying that the base was indeed chicken broth--then asked if I wanted the soup. I replied that it was NOT vegetarian, and that I did not want it. She did not appear to care, nor did she apologize. I felt as if I had to check what I was considering for all the ingredients before I could order, which did not make me comfortable nor happy. read more

Enjoyed fantastic dinner recently at Phoenix, my only complaint is that this spot isn't closer to my house! We were greeted by the hostess upon entry and quickly seated. Server was very attentive taking our drink and then food orders. He checked back regularly throughout the meal making sure we didn't need anything for to refill our drinks. We got an order of the lettuce wraps to start, which were del IOU's, then I got an order of the Phoenix chicken, which came with a side of brown or white rice. My wife got the combo lo mein with chicken and shrimp. Everything was absolutely devious, and portion sizes very generous, leaving us enough for (2) additional lunches. If you've never been to Phoenix, I'd absolutely recommend it. It's a clean, modern spot, with a good variety of Asian food, from Chinese to sushi, and many other things, there is bound to be something for everyone. read more

We headed back to Phoenix and of course had to get the crab wontons again. Still amazing! Still my favorites! I got the shrimp habachi dish with white rice. It was phenomenal! When it came out, I was shocked with the size of the shrimp--they were massive and perfectly cooked. For desert, we split the banana spring rolls. They're fantastic too! I can't decide if I like them or the cheesecake desert is the best. We sat in the bar at the tall tables and it was a nice experience. We could see the TVs and it was a very chill vibe. Our server was also the bartender so she was busy but always attentive and helpful. read more

I enjoyed Phoenix Asian cuisine. I got the ma po tofu and it was the perfect level of spice and came with brown rice. Vegetables are extra but the tofu and rice alone are good. I also tried the spicy tuna sushi which I enjoyed. I'd suggest trying the lychee saki. It was delicious. The wait was short. This would be great for groups. read more

Phoenix Asian Cuisine - Tofu - Asian Fusion Near Me - Greensboro, North Carolina

It's been a long time since I wrote a review of this place, and I have been a couple times recently for dinner out with a group, so it is definitely high time for an update. In truth though, i don't feel a whole lot different than I did in my first review, in that it's not a great value and the food is pretty hit and miss. That mirrors my most recent experience. I will say, the staff did an incredible job handling our large group of about 20 people, and some of them were pretty demanding. They had a few people handling us and checking on us, and that was very much appreciated, making this a definite top destination for groups. The restaurant was clean and attractive as it always has been. A few starters were ordered around the table, I order my crab volcano roll because it's something unique I can really find elsewhere. Unfortunately, it just continues to get smaller and smaller overtime. This time, I found the actual roll pieces to be about the size of what you'd find in a grocery store. The crab dip over the top is still the highlight, and really what you're ordering it for, so I suppose i'll continue to order it but really just for myself. It's no longer shareable unless maybe with 1 other person. There was also lots of soup, and even in the smaller size, the portion was really big, and it comes with a nice helping of the fried noodles. In truth, I wish I could just get a basket of the fried noodles. Maybe I'll ask next time. For dinner, someone was talking about how amazing the "Dragon's Nest" was and it was highlighted as a house specialty. So I went for it, instead of a dish I had had before. When it came out, it definitely looked interesting in it's literal fried nest with seafood and veggies. Unfortunately, I found it just to be so bland. Like, nothing really had a standout flavor, it was not much better than if the seafood were boiled. Certainly nothing "wok-seared" as the description indicated. I ate it because I was hungry and it was not exactly cheap. I would definitely not re-order this. I did get bites of other things around the table, and they were much better. Anything fried and sauced seemed to be the more reliable option for flavor, and the Mongolian beef. In the end, this is still a place that I don't usually choose, but get invited to a fair amount. It's a crowd pleaser that everyone can find something they like. read more

It's sad to see a restaurant degrade their quality, especially one that you have loved for over 20 years. Got my standard order of Dumplings and Pan Fried Prawns. The dumplings used to be the best dumplings in Greensboro. Fat, juicy, flavorful....unlike any other in the area. Now they look and taste like something bought in a bag at Super G Mart - one star rating. And they left off the asian pickles. As for the Pan Fried Prawns....the shrimp were "okay" but not at all what they were in the past and the lettuce was wilted and bleh. Unfortunately, our former go-to place is no longer go-to. read more

I ordered thru their website. Easy process and they even called me to clarify an add on order. Friendly, helpful staff. read more

When you walk into the restaurant the distinctive smell of Chinese cooking hits you in the face. This quickly brings me back to my old middle school days when my friends and I got that special permission from our parents to walk across the street to our local Chinese restaurant and indulge on the last day off school. Boy we felt important! The smells are nostalgic but the food is not. A fusion of old time favorites and a more contemporary flair like a PF Chang makes this place a favorite! Service is great too. I do wish they would serve some of the New England Traditional Cocktails one gets in the more northern restaurants, but we do visit here often and like it a lot. read more

Attended a birthday gathering this evening and once again Phoenix did not dissappoint!! The service is always top notch and the food is JUST amazing. Crab Rangoons, pot stickers, fresh winter rolls and the always delightful chicken and green beans. read more

This was my first time here and I had a great experience! Our waitress was very nice. I loved how the place was decorated, too. We went for lunch, and the lunch portions are very generous; great deal for the money. The thing that stands out to me the most was the dessert. It was newer, and I don't remember the exact name. It was chocolate mousse, hazelnut, and whipped cream. I ate every single bit of it and I've been thinking about it ever since! read more

Good service, and plate of shrimp. The shrimp served with crisp lettuce is the favorite of mine and I order it each time I visit. The general flavor is fresh and lemony shrimp. Just like the seashore! read more

They get high marks as it was my first time dining and it was with a large group of 12 and it was the perfect spot for that size group. Lots of restaurants cannot execute well with a large party. We had appetizers, soups and entrees and all were good with no complaints . Several people had sushi . Our server was excellent. The apps of wontons, edamame, wonton soup was enjoyed . The entrees of dragons nest , Mongolian beef , were very good and large portions. I will definitely return and put them at the top of my list for Asian dining. read more

I have eaten here many times and enjoy each visit. The choices are great and I have enjoyed everyone I tried. Mongolian Beef may be my favorite though. I enjoy their Egg Drop Soup and the Lettuce Wraps also, and have them every visit. My second choice for an entree is Classic Honey Chicken. And the Chocolate Lave Cake is a fitting end to the meal with a cup of Green Tea read more

The restaurant has pretty room and great ambience. The tables and chairs are comfortable. Our waitress was very attentive almost a little too much...lol If we dropped a small piece of paper she was there to remove it. We finished our sushi, but we weren't quite done with the side of ginger. She came by and scooped up the plate without asking. Literally as my friend lifted her chopstick from the plate. When the food was brought out, she had placed take out boxes beside our table before we could start eating. It wasn't the worst thing, but it just seemed like we were being rushed. She was attentive with refilling our waters. I ordered the beef and shrimp Phoenix lo mein. The portion size was just enough, but there were barely any vegetables in it. There were a few shrimp and lots of beef. The lo mein was very salty to me. The beef didn't have that much seasoning so I added some soy sauce, but I regret doing that, because it made the lo mein even saltier. My friend enjoyed her salmon. She said the vegetables were tasty and the salmon texture was good. If your child doesn't like Chinese food, this probably isn't a good place for them. Overall, I peeped the other meals being served around the restaurant and they looked tasty. I would return to try something differently. This restaurant seems like it would be good for larger parties. I'm going to keep this as an option. read more

Me and some friends grabbed dinner at Phoenix recently and really enjoyed it! We started with the California wontons and potstickers. They both were really good. The potstickers was full of meat and had nice flavor. The California wontons were like crab rangoons and were super good! They were nice and crispy on the outside but creamy on the inside. I ordered the Phoenix chicken as me entree and it was delicious. It had a nice sweet flavored sauce and the chicken was nice and crispy. It came with rice as a side which was good as well! read more

I have visited here many times food is good nothing to exciting. But they are consistent. This time we brought a friend to introduce her to Thai food. We did arrive 40 min before closing. Me and my wife already know what we want. Are waitresses Nora arrives at the table with our waters and throws straws on the table, Greats with a bad attitude. Then lets us know kitchen will close in 10 min and walks away. I worked in the restaurant industry for over 10 years. So know we where going to be out by the time we closed. We left the restaurant at 9:05 only reason we left 5 min after is it took forever to get the check. She brought no refills as drinks sat empty. She never checked on the table once appetizers of food was ran to the table. This was by far the worst service I have ever had here. I don't know if she was having a bad day. As for the food we all ordered Pad Thia and for appetizers we had crab wonton and spring rolls. Out of most of the place we go I believe they have some of the best wontons they are creamy with crab you can taste and see. The Pad Thai is average plating is ok. As I said before you can count on consistency with their food. read more

For me, this rather upscale restaurant consistently serves up high quality asian dishes, some of which are unique to this spot - such as: DRAGON'S NEST- seared Shrimp, Scallops & Chicken with broccoli, snow peas, sliced green peppers & shiitake mushrooms in a potato nest. ASIAN JALAPEÑO BEEF - sliced marinated beef on bed of lettuce. BA BA BLACK LAMB - wok seared sliced lamb with scallions, garlic, & black bean sauce. And they offer very good versions is some commonly found dishes, the best of which are: MONGOLIAN BEEF (as well as a Deluxe version which adds shrimp, chicken & crispy rice noodles). CRISPY CALAMARI - an appetizer SINGAPORE STREET NODDLES - some nice heat here! EGG DROP and WONTON SOUPS SUMMER ROLLS AND MORE!!!! Ambiance - 4 Service - 4 Food - 4.5 Value read more

This was my first time visiting this restaurant and I was excited to try some of their dishes. I was there to celebrate my cousin's birthday. Upon entering, I thought it was a pretty decent space, however there were a lot of parties happening so it seemed really tight trying to maneuver between everyone to get to my party. A waitress greeted us and took our drink orders and poor thing, I swear she had every party but she remained pleasant throughout it all which definitely helped. For the food, after taking our food orders, it took FOREVER to get it. To give you context, we sat down at 6p, ordered our food around 6:20 and didn't get our food until around 7:15-20. I ordered basic sushi (California and Shrimp Tempura) rolls which I thought was pretty easy to fix and wouldn't take long but I was absolutely wrong on that thought process. Also the family pretty much ordered the Phoenix chicken and shrimp dishes and pineapple rice and still took longer than expected. I will say the Phoenix shrimp was delicious but it wasn't spicy at all even though the menu had the peppers to indicate it would be. Hopefully the slowness was due to all the huge parties they had but I don't plan to go back to see if that was the case or not. read more

So we are somewhat regulars here, usually come in about once a month.... And we've had a couple bad experiences at Phoenix in the past but hadn't gone with a large group in a few years so decided to give it a try again. Food is 10/10 but service is just lacking. Now, let me make some disclaimers - we went with a very large party, a couple people were late, and we had a couple young kids, so patience was a little thin. We weren't there for a nice evening out. It took the server 30 minutes to take our order, our food came out after we had been there an hour, and I was waiting on a refill for water (along with several others) for over 20 minutes. We ordered our dishes (phoenix chicken and white rice) for both myself and my husband, and got one water refill that we sparingly drank afterwards knowing it wasn't happening again. We got our bill and were charged extra for rice? Again, we come here frequently enough to know that I didn't get any extra than normal. So I asked the server if it was a new rule, and she said no, that we as a table, ordered too much extra rice, and she picked two or three couples to put the charge on. It was $2.75? For a pint of rice? Long story short, someone from our table asked to speak with the manager. My husband was discussing with the server that he wouldn't be paying the extra amount as the menu didn't state the charge and that he didn't feel like the table got extra rice at all, nor did she tell us the extra would be a charge, and she got very loud and threatened to call the police, and later throwing in a comment saying we didn't get refills because she was fetching rice for the table constantly. Also said to everyone but my husband and the other person who spoke to the manager "pleasure to serve YOU" but didn't say anything to us and didn't give us fortune cookies. It was all very embarrassing, the manager did take the rice off the bills at the end but we still were forced to pay the 20%gratuity for large parties. I really don't think we will be back here even for a lunch date. It's a shame because we do get good service sometimes and the food is always super. read more

Well I have not been to this restaurant in years. Last time I went I had a good experience. The location is outside of my normal radius of travel. This time a friend and I went for a late lunch on a Thursday. We wanted some tasty Chinese food. We arrived around 2:15 not realizing that they were closing at 2:30. Our waiter let us know that right away and not in a friendly sort of way. We rushed to order before the kitchen closed as we were reminded 2-3 times. I got the Phoenix chicken. It was fried too hard for me. My friend got the sweet and sour chicken. She said it was pretty good. We both took some home in a to go box. I tasted it again wanting to love it but the chicken was fried so hard. I ended up throwing most of mine away. The spring roll that came with the lunch special was nice and crispy. The wonton soup was good as well. We also ordered a shrimp appetizer. It was good and tasty. Cooked fresh and shrimp very tender. I have a feeling my chicken dish was probably not fried fresh and I may have gotten leftovers cooked from earlier. Since we had to rush to order and eat, I did not it have a restful time with my friend. I guess we should have gone somewhere else when we found out the kitchen was closing. The waiter was efficient but not friendly. Ready to go home or clean up I guess. It will probably be a while before I go back. My recommendation: check their website for times of operation before going. read more

The service was very friendly and attentive but the food lacked flavor. We got crispy shrimp, hibachi salmon, mongolian beef and pad thai and there wasn't much flavor to any of the dishes. I wouldn't go back but I did appreciate the friendly service! read more

I haven't been to this place in about 10 years. I chose the Singapore shrimp which has good flavor and includes shrimp, broccoli, snow peas, peppers, and mushrooms. I had the brown rice with it. Great variety of vegetables and it comes with a spring roll and an option of soup or salad so I chose egg drop, but I was disappointed with only 3 shrimp. I asked the waitress and she said that's normal. Might be a while before I go back again. read more

Delicious food, and incredibly fresh! Came here on a whim, and it's the best Asian food we've found in the area so far.

We came to Phoenix a couple of weeks ago for a gift exchange with a friend. I have no idea why but we always forget about Phoenix as an option for Asian cuisine and is much better than supporting a chain restaurant. For appetizers we got the short ribs - nothing short of amazing. These were the star of the night for me. Perfectly tender and saucy. We also got pot stickers and calamari - both which weren't my fav. The calamari was a little chewy for my taste and pot stickers didn't have a flavor I was particularly fond of. No worries though - the short ribs made up for both. Our entree of honey chicken and the deep fried sushi roll were exceptional as well. I love a deep fried roll with cream cheese and the honey chicken with white rice was great. The only down side I will say is I think they are filling the soy sauce up with half water. I've noticed places are starting to do that and it takes away from the flavor I'm trying to achieve when I put it on my food. Overall not a bad experience at all and will definitely be back for more sushi, short ribs, and honey chicken! read more

Food is consistency good. Portion sizes are amazing service was great and the atmosphere is generally good. We love it.

Food is a mix of Asian foods. They can do family style, or individual meals. Wide range of dishes. White rice, fried, or brown. Lots of vegetable dishes, or meats. Service is great for large parties, they don't mind having more than one server helping out. Soups, sauces, everything just the right amount of heat, or tang. read more

I have been to Phoenix Asia several times dine in and enjoyed it for the most part. Ordered to go recently and was unpleasantly surprised. The firecracker shrimp was good as usual but the winter roll was not. The wrap was hard with chicken although I requested no chicken and asked the young man to confirm no chicken. Waste of money because it was not edible. Management needs to help employees understand the need to adhere to request because of food allergies. Disappointed. read more

I just keep coming back for the Ma Po Tofu with Vegetables. It is my favorite tofu dish in Greensboro. Phoenix has such a pretty interior with many Asian accents. The waitstaff is always attentive and polite. The lunch specials are a good deal at $12.99. They include a choice of lunch entree, with soup or salad and an egg roll. If I am not ordering the chicken and broccoli, I get the chicken teriyaki. But, it the tofu I am really after. read more

Not my favorite sushi experience. The food looked very appealing. It was colorful and bright, but lacked any real flavor. It was all one note. The same is for the shrimp we split. The service was lacking also. There may have been three other tables occupied when we arrived, but it took quite a while for anyone to greet us and once were sat, it took a while for the server to come over. He brought the wrong drinks to our table and couldn't make any recommendations from the menu. For the 16.50 they charge for the sushi roll, I expected a better experience overall. I give it 3 stars because the spring rolls and wontons are worthy of at least that. read more

Previously visited this location a year ago and returned for more. This time was truly disappointed, we had ordered the pan fried dumplings and California wontons to start. The California wontons were pretty standard cream cheese wontons, the sweet chili sauce that came with elevated them to stand out. The dumplings would be barely passed as pan fried and there was entirely too much filling that made the dumplings somewhat unpleasant to eat. I had ordered the pineapple fried rice which came as a huge portion however my shrimp were fresh from refrigerator cold and the dish overall did not have much taste to it unless you had bites of pineapple. Ended up having stomach upset after eating this dish and suspect it might have to do with the cold shrimp. The other entrees ordered were the honey chicken and Thai noodles which were fine. Did not finish the fried rice and did not bother packing it to go. Was disappointed in the food as phoenix is usually a go to. read more
