China Chili

One of the best Chinese restaurants in Arizona! The food was delicious! Our lunch order came out quickly. We had wonderful service and the prices were excellent. I used to live I. Taiwan and one of my favorite dishes was MaPo Tofu. I have ordered it in the past but never did it taste as delicious and familiar to me! Will definitely return.

Stopped by for dinner before going to Phoenix Theatre. Service was fast and friendly. We got the Mongolian beef, and it was so good. The beef was tender. My wife ordered gyoza, and they were so large and delicious. There were a lot of people there for dinner, but the servers were very efficient. Highly recommended.

A large cozy Chinese restaurant. Got green tea (pot), string bean tofu and the tofu mushroom soup. The soup had a sesame aroma but overall plain, pepper helped, the tofu was silky and good. The string bean tofu was just that string beans and tofu with a pan seared flavor. Both came with a cup of rice. The green tea was one bag in a nice hot pot, BUT they need to clean the pots better. There was a lot of tea build up in the spout which was pretty gross considering it holds onto soap and other things it comes in contact with. Prices were fair for today’s economy. 2$ pot of tea/one tea bag, 12$ soup, 14$ for tofu dish.

I stopped by here for dinner, which was a new experience since I usually don’t dine in. It’s conveniently located close to downtown Phoenix. They have small parking spots both in front of the restaurant and in the back, with entrances on both sides. I parked in the front and was greeted and seated right away. The restaurant has plenty of seating, and everything on the menu looked tempting. I ordered the wonton soup and beef chow fun—both were flavorful and satisfying. They also offer great lunch deals, perfect if you’re dining solo, and dinner specials for couples. I’d definitely like to come back and try more items from their menu.

As soon as I saw the placemats in pics, I knew this would be legit! Fast Service! Got the Sweet and Sour Chicken. The pieces are huge, which they were smaller but the flavor is amazing. I do this give this like a solid 4.7. I do wish there was more of the crunch but the batter around it was thin and again the flavor was good!

Ok, is this Chinese probably the best you will get in Phoenix? Yes. Is it better than your average east coast take out Chinese place? No. I’ve lived in Phoenix for years and this is the closest I’ve found to the Chinese I know on the east coast. Their famous orange chicken was crispy and flavorful but still had bits of fat in it. The lo mein was great! Prices are kinda high for what it is.

Great food. I love taking out of town visitors here. And always love going with local friends too. Nice oriental decore. A great time is going here with a large group, sitting at one of the big round tables with a 'Lazy Susan' in the middle. You can imagine the rest... with the Lazy Susan. Sometimes the wait staff can seem a little cold, but the food is always hot. I ALWAYS get the Orange Chicken. I've NEVER had a better Orange Chicken anywhere. But really all of the chicken dishes are good. I steal samples from my friends plates all the time. lol Terriyaki, Sweat & Sour, Lemon, Kong Pow. All are dilicious. (Maybe the Sesame chicken is my least favorite) I just don't understand why they don't open until 4 PM on Sundays. Oh well. Oh yeah. I love their Pot Stickers too. And the Chinese BEER.

I'm doing a different international cuisine every week and this week's continent was Asia, the country I got (randomly chosen), was China! (No problem finding a Chinese restaurant 😋) I wanted somewhere I haven't been, that isn't a chain (like Pei Wei), with authentic food. I finally settled on China Chili, because their Peking Duck recipe comes from Peking. I ordered that and a Coke as it is widely consumed in China. Both the food and service were EXCELLENT! The duck was nice and tender, plum sauce that came with it was sweet without being too sweet, the ambiance was traditional, and the servers were consistently refilling our beverages at half empty! Also had another culture shock 😅 I got these little dumplings (I think) and just started dipping it in the plum sauce. My waitress came over and explained to me how I'm supposed to eat it 😂 There were scallions included, you open up the dumpling, put in some scallions, some Peking Duck, and some plum sauce (like a taco), and eat it! Had leftovers so I'm gonna take it home and eat the duck over rice with the plum sauce on top. Highly recommended!!!

What a freaking gem. Came here for the first time and can genuinely say this is the best Chinese food spot in Phoenix, probably Arizona. Walked in and was immediately transferred back to the old school Chinese restaurants back east. We did the Phoenix dinner for 2 and substituted the pork for orange chicken. Everything was absolutely delicious. First came out the salad which was super flavorful and fresh. Fresh lettuce, noodles, amazing dressing and super tender chicken slices. It came with two wontons which were also soo good. Perfectly crisp and filled with a cream cheese stuffing that complimented the salad perfectly. Hot and sour soup was next and while that's not usually my favorite soup, it was great and had depth in the flavor. Then came our entrees, huge in size and definitely worth the price. The kung pao chicken had delicious flavor and veggies were perfectly cooked. The fried rice was not your average, it had chicken, shrimp and the most tender beef. The orange chicken was definitely my favorite. You can tell they use breast and the crisp on the outside was so perfect, sauce was sweet with a little kick, just perfect. Service was insightful, quick and friendly. I think my bf had his sprite filled at least 3 times and I was asked if I wanted another coke at least 5 The ambiance is authentic yet casual with Chinese art and tapestry on the walls, fish tank, etc. We will definitely be back.

Bf was gagged to hell and back for the honey walnut shrimp. Now as for me.... There's an odd vibe about this place. Not sure what it is. Love the interior with the chandeliers... and yet I overheard so many random fights from families and couples around me. If you want to listen in on other people's lives this is definitely the place?

Eh it's ok. The food was not terrible; it was mediocre at best. I felt like there was no real flavor it just tasted greasy. The food came out in like 3mins which was quite fast!! The service was fine. It took a bit for my friend and I to pay. Other than that, it isn't awful but I wouldn't choose to go here again. My friend didn't really like her food either.

The portions here are so big, we got a two person combo and had leftovers for two people. My favorite was the Honey Walnut Shrimp, wish it was crispier though. The workers are super attentive and nice. The restaurant is big with lots of seating and was busy when we came for a weekday dinner! ig: @cravingswithcat

Love the staff love the food, family style is some of my favorite serving style and they actually give you good portions here for a good price. I always leave full and satisfied with leftovers for later. Get the orange chicken, obviously, but in case you needed to see it again! 10/10 been coming for years but it's time to hype them up.

Had a great first experience! Was in the area so got it to-go, 20min back home and it travels fine! Easy, friendly service calling my order in. Parking was very minimal as I was there on a Saturday afternoon. Food was great!! I personally didn't love the boiled wontons but overall everything was super flavorful and delish!!

The food has always been very good every time we visit. Which sadly isn't that often because it's a drive to get there. If I lived closer I'd eat there at least twice a week. The service is efficient because everyone shares the load. You don't just have one server. The ambiance is your typical large dining hall Chinese restaurant. A large open room with various sized tables with the typical paper table covers and zodiac paper place mats. If you don't know the vibe you don't get out for Chinese much. On to the food. For appetizers we got the BBQ pork slices. Very good but not anything great or special. I'd stick with the pot stickers for my appetizer of choice. Get the pork in an entree or the fried rice. For our soup choice we went with the sizzling rice soup. Very good with sliced chicken breast and veggies. And the rice actually sizzles. Since unlike some other restaurants it doesn't have shrimp or pork I might choose something else next time. Entrees. The star of the show in my opinion and others is the orange chicken. Not your standard chunks breaded and fried soaked in a sweet sugar syrup but a full chucked breast breaded and fried to a perfect crisp then sliced like a katsu and covered in a slightly sweet and slightly spicy sauce with hint of orange. I could eat this all by myself and be happy. Next we got the Mongolian Beef. Average. Not great, not bad, just average. Too saucy with too many onions. Nothing compares to China Chef in Morton Grove, IL. The pork fried rice. Pretty good with lots of bbq pork. Way more than you get in the slices. My only gripe with most places is there's no place for carrots and peas in fried rice. Bean sprouts and scallions is the way to go. But here it's the frozen veg carrots and peas combo. Oh well. Next time I think it will be mu shu pork instead of Mongolian and hot and sour instead of sizzling rice soup. One other comment. Like most restaurants in AZ. The egg rolls are really spring rolls. Hard pass as real egg rolls have won ton wrapper skins, shrimp and bbq pork with a hint of peanut butter in them. Outside of NY or Chicago I've never found the real deal.

Love the peking duck here with the bao as well as the honey walnut shrimp, spicy garlic eggplant, crab puffs, and hong kong style crispy noodle. One of the servers here has started to recognize as we go here so much and they're always friendly and quick to fulfill requests. There is lots of seating here, it's clean ,spacious, and well-kept, and I've never had to wait for a table. Real family style vibe. One of my favorite spots for chinese in the valley!

Probably the best fried rice I've had in awhile! Picked up some food to bring to the hospital. I ordered over the phone amd was ready by the time I got there. I ordered the shrimp lo mein. The dish was flavorful, the noodles were perfect, and came with a great amount of shrimp. The vegetable fried rice was also a great balance. Not too greasy. Light and tasty. Lastly, the house special chicken was very filling. The chicken chunks alone were huge. It actually tasted like real chicken too. The sauce was light and probably could've used more sweet chili flavors. Over all it was great experience. I'd bring my husband back to try more items!

Always good food. The lunch specials are right on the money. I've been going here for years.

The location, service, and ambiance - absolutely 5 stars! However, the food is a bit ok the salty side for me, hence the 4-star rating. As the photo shows, we ordered some meat dishes and some veggie dishes. The eggplant with chicken was my favorite. The pan fried noodles' dish is crispy and flavorful. We ordered a couple vegetarian dishes for a friend who is vegan and she felt accommodated with the Kai Lan and mixed vegetables that were picked out for her. I'll probably go back only if a meeting or a banquet is being hosted there. Side note: Parking could be a bit tricky for large banquets.

Visited China Chili, for lunch with some friends and it was super busy! Luckily we got sat really quickly. Our waitress was really friendly, and attentive. I was really surprised at how fast my food came out! I got the orange chicken, with fried rice. The orange chicken tasted good, it was different than any I had tasted before. The fried rice, didn't really taste like fried rice to me, it tasted like just regular brown rice, and the veggie egg roll they gave me was a bit bitter. Not sure if I would be back, but the service was great.

First Time Visit To Go First Impressions Very Nostalgic Chinese Restaurant With Vintage Decor If you grew up in the 60's, 70's and 80's this place will bring back memories. The way they make their egg drop soup brought back old school Chinese food cooking. Don't expect a modern Chinese fast food place. This place is reserved for those who love the old school vibes, vintage decor and just plain good food. Location is not far from the hustle and bustle of Park Central area businesses. Lunch special is worth it. A bit of medium heat with very saucey dishes. Service is great. Lunch specials end at 3pm. This place is good for dates and allowing for more conversations with others.

Authentic and flavorful Chinese cuisine! The General Tso's chicken and hot & sour soup are absolute perfection. Fresh ingredients, generous portions, and consistently friendly service. A must-visit for the best Chinese food in Phoenix!

Extremely fast service for lunch, the food was out right away, hot and tasty. The restaurant itself very nicely decorated and clean. In fact, service was so fast we were given our bill while still eating and we were prompted to pay while still eating too lol there are occasions when I appreciate this, so that's fine. Food was great! Pork was crispy and flavorful. The fried rice was just okay. Not enough egg and not very hot. But other than that, highly recommend and we will be back!

We love the Chinese food at this location. They have a ton of options and the food is always delicious. They do both take out and dine in and everything feels very authentic. The service is incredible. The staff are always super attentive to your needs. I always enjoy coming here. Food can be pricey but it's definitely worth it so we don't mind it especially be size portion sizes are huge. The only downside is there's limited parking up front and in the back so it can be full at times and you have to park on the street or lot next door. Overall, my favorite Chinese food spot downtown. The fried rice, Mongolian beef, chow mein and crab puffs are some of our favorite dishes. The wonton soup is also great, especially for take out if you're ever under the weather. Highly recommend this location.

CHINA CHILI IS OVER. HYPED. FOR. WHAT. REASON? PROS: Great Service, chicken wings were on point, iced tea was delicious... that's about all I can think of. CONS: the food was not it. We ordered shrimp chow mein which came with approx 5 shrimp and loaded on bean sprouts and onion, the flavor tasted like it was bought in the frozen section at the store. We also ordered Mongolian beef, it was very mediocre I wasn't surprised by any great taste by any means. The beef was bland and it was also overloaded onions and bean sprouts. Side note, the beef was tender. The craziness of the whole experience.... NO CHILI OIL. LIKE WHAT THE?! I've heard so many great things about china chili over the years and it was an extreme let down. I've had amazing Chinese food and this does not even come close to comparing to Great Wall or Happy Food and even Canton Dragon. Over hyped by the demographic in that area. Disappointed.

I love this place. Lettuce Wraps craving so searched my favorite app YELP. What to my wondering eyes should appear CHINA CHILI. Haven't had the lettuce wraps here. Oooh and I love eggplant so got the vegetarian eggplant also. While here Joy the waitress who I use to see at lunch a year and a half ago comes up and said hey long time no see. Just sweet people great food great service. Lettuce Wraps Huge & flavor on hit. The eggplant yes Jesus take the wheel foodie luv. Thank You for an awesome experience so needed after a long work day.

Finding a good Chinese restaurant in the area, I'm told is a challenge. I actually read about China Chili in a recent Apple News article so brought the family here recently to give it a try. Service was good and our waitress was able to speak Cantonese with me, so that was legit, and she was able to communicate in English with my family. We ordered a number of dishes for a family of 5: orange chicken, Yang Zhou fried rice, peking duck, and salt and pepper chicken. The orange chicken and peking duck were quite good! Plus, there was no MSG in the food as we didn't experience the post MSG symptoms. The peking duck, especially, brought me back to my childhood, which is great. However, we were disappointed by the fried rice and the salt and pepper chicken. Overall, this place has some legitimacy but fell short in 2 of our dishes. I don't mind coming back but the search continues!

The food is good, but maybe a little bit on the oily side, but then again, most Chinese food is usually greasy & oily. They give you decent sized portions here. I ordered the classic Chicken Chow Mein that said it came with cabbage, onions, carrots, & beansprouts in it, but, I hardly saw any of that in it, so it's a tad disappointed. It was a bit on the bland side, so I added hot sauce to spice it up! The servers don't have much of a personality, but they get the job done.

We got here before 4:30 on a Sunday and was seated immediately. It is now 5:34 and we are about to leave. Everything was excellent. We splurged on a whole steamed fish at market price and it was just how my dad used to make it after he came back with a fresh fish. Excellent! We had pan fried chow mein which was Hong Kong style. Seafood was varied and fresh with vegetables cooked just right. House fried rice was rich and flavorful. Szechuan Green beans excellent and salt and pepper chicken that others wrote about was tasty but looked nothing like a thought. Large portions and we spent about $120 for three of us taking home enough for several other people. My husband and son said I made a great choice coming here. I actually heard about it from my cardiologist who said his Asian clients include him for Chinese New Years celebrations here. Can't wait to share it with more family.

Come in hungry & ready to share! Large delicious portions served family style. Order a few different plates for a fun culinary experience. Speedy efficient service. During the weekend it tends to get busy. Although there is plenty of seating, it is a popular place that's been around for ages. It is not trendy however the food speaks for itself. Parking may be an issues during busy times but there is an adjacent dirt lot just a building away from the restaurant.

The food here is always great. Went for lunch for the first time and loved the lunch menu. Quick, efficient (although not chatty) service. They get a big crowd in, but it doesn't feel loud or crowded, which I appreciate. Bathroom could probably do with an upgrade, but that's a minor, side issue. Parking it tight, but I've always found a spot.

I really love this place! We went there for Mother's Day dinner tonight , my choice of course! We were lucky as they still had Peking Duck available ( I had forgotten to preorder). It was so delectable. The duck was moist, tender and perfectly seasoned. Nicely nestled in light and airy buns, topped with plum sauce and scallions. All for $49 and could easily feed 4 people. We however couldn't pass up also ordering our favorite orange chicken w/rice. So needless to say we left with enough left over for an excellent lunch for 2 tomorrow. Mother's Day extended play version! Thanks China Chili for another great meal.

This has been my go to for Chinese for years. I drive in from Chandler when I crave it. Orange chicken is the best I have ever had. I get it extra spicy (still only about a 3 of 5). The lunch special is a great deal. The spring roll that comes with it is mediocre at best but portions are generous so you don't need it. Service is fast. You can literally be I and out of there in 20 minutes if you know what you are doing/having. Parking is limited but there is a lot close by for overflow. Don't let that deter you.

We came here on a Thursday midday with a party of 8, and we were seated immediately. This is a great place to eat if you have a large party since all of the dishes are family style and meant to be shared. We ordered various items and they were all brought out relatively quickly. My only complaint, however, is that the servers often times came off as rude when answering our questions. Even when I asked if we could move to a larger table, the server said it was reserved already, yet no one sat there throughout the 1.5 hours we were there. Also, who's making a reservation for a large party in the middle of the week during the day? Other than the service, the food is good. They have an extensive menu and offer great choices if you're in the mood for Chinese food.

The food is authentic, the service excellent, portions, especially fried rice plentiful, the ambiance perfectl, location only one in Phx, no fast food service. A blessing.

I haven't been to China Chili for quite a while so on this Wednesday we decided to stop here just before the lunch crowd. This restaurant has been pretty much a staple for years. We were seated right away and server took our order of drinks which were immediately placed at our table. Their lunch menu offers quite a variety of choices so I ordered the Sweet and Sour Prawns and my better half ordered the Teriyaki Chicken. The server brought us the Wednesday soup which was like a corn chowder and it was delicious. We had just finished the soup when our orders were brought to our table. We shared a portion of each other's dishes so that we could have a taste. My dish was excellent and flavorful but I did spice the sweet and sour with their chili to balance out the taste. I tasted some the teriyaki chicken and it was delicious as well. This restaurant is very nice inside and quite roomy. In the times I have been their food has never disappointed and their service is quick. I have been here during the dinner hours and has more to choose from the menu and every item on each menu is more than enough and delicious. If you are ever in the area stop by, you will not be disappointed. No pictures of my dish as I dug in and ate.

Met up with friends for dinner and the place picked was China Chili, man this has been a place I have been wanting to try for years! China Chili does not do reservations and sometimes there is a line, but its so worth the wait! After checking out the menu I went with the sizzling black pepper chicken dish. It was thinly sliced chicken breast with onions and peppers in this black pepper sauce and it comes out on a sizzling hot plate. This was delish! Everything perfectly cooked, the flavors were amazing, Service is outstanding here at China Chili. China Chili is one of the best places to get Chinese food here in the valley and I can see why!

Why are there no prices listed for the meals? browsing the lunch menu, food sounds good. work close to restauranter would like to know what to expect for the price

Really great tasting chinese food. I like to come here after an event in downtown Phx. Food is really good and the service is excellent

Fast, Friendly, Flavorful! "We were invited to lunch by friends, and I'm so glad I tried it. The food is by far the best Chinese I've had in Arizona. Service is quick, staff is friendly, and the family-style portions make it a great experience to share. Highly recommend to anyone looking for authentic, delicious Chinese food."

Love it when I have business in midtown.. stopped by for a late lunch. Ordered chicken and veggies with 1/2 of rice. Good staple lunch, soup, egg roll and main. In and out quick. Great service.

This is an old school Chinese-American restaurant, with a great take on everything I grew up with. Yes, the Valley has some absolutely amazing, authentic, regional Chinese cooking in the south east valley: Shaanxi Garden, Old Town Taste, Heng's, but sometimes you don't want vervy, buzzing Szechuan pepper on the tongue, and not everyone appreciates fabulous Pig's Ear in Chili Oil or Chili Tripe. Sometimes you just want the more mundane, comfortable stuff you grew up with...the frankly more mainstream Americanized versions of Cantonese Classics. But, you want them cooked perfectly. China Chili brings you the dive bar feel of an old institution, and damn good versions of the classics. We went with the classics, and had egg rolls...solid but not exciting, a darn good Westlake Beef Soup, Orange Chicken and Sweet and Sour Prawns, that were also better than dishes I remembered from my youth, and a really good house fried rice with generous BBQ Pork slices. But the dish that blew me away was the Scrambled Eggs with Shrimp. Tender plump shrimp, in perfectly fluffy, moist scrambled eggs, with hints of onion and sweet wine, it was one of my favorite dishes so far this year. I'd go back for that alone. The food portions are very generous, and they have inexpensive beer and sake, and an ice cold Tsing Tao always puts a smile on my face. The dishes arrived immediately from the kitchen with an army of attentive servers, so we never felt ignored...or pestered. And, if you described what you like their suggestions were helpful...I don't understand people who say the service was inattentive....they must not be inquisitive. If I asked, they answered even if they had to struggle with language. Definitely the kind of place I'd take the parents to and feel like there were plenty of safe choices for them and damn good food for me with a few surprises.

Lunch specials on a Saturday! We ordered eggrolls, kung Pao chicken and orange chicken. The lunch specials came with eggrolls and hot n sour soup and steam rice. Orange chicken can be crispier. I would order it well done next time. Kung Pao was good and flavorful. Will definitely be back to try other entrees. Service was good. However at times I felt like they rushing to hurry and take plates off your table. Other then that a must try!

Hey there Yelpers..just wanted to share this lovely Chinese food restaurant that I have as a go to place to eat. It's clean. Open and great seating. Great atmosphere. Great customer service! And they have no problem recooking the food if there is something wrong with what you ordered. Every time I come here, they always succeed and put a smile in my belly..a must place to try out. Thank you China Chili!!!

China Chili is my go-to Chinese spot downtown. It's an affordable place to grab a quick lunch or bring the family for dinner. While I don't know if this is true authentic Chinese food (probs not), it sure is delicious. We love the orange chicken, all of their soups, the spicy wonton appetizer, and their tofu options. I usually order a side of green beans or eggplant to make the meal slightly healthier. For a special occasion, we'll get the Peking duck entree which comes with the softest pillowy buns to build your own sliders. Highly recommend if duck is your thing!

Good fast friendly not much more you can really ask for when it comes to Chinese food and china chili delivers on that. Walked in and we'd heard for a long time to check this place out and my wife really wanted me to treat her to Chinese food before she leaves on her trip so stopped in and ordered some chow mein, beef w/ broccoli and started with some crab cheese puffs. Food came out quickly and everyone was really kind and nice. I guess it has that Chinese restaurant feel of when I was a kid as it was very nostalgic and since I'd never been before couldn't say if they hadn't changed much at this place. But I will say from all the great reviews it would seem the service and food has been pretty good for a long time and you should check them out

Not too many places make salt and pepper pork in phoenix, this place makes it the best by far. I love coming here, the staff are very friendly and the service is fast. Big portions for around $15 a plate. I could easily share just one but I can't not have an order of chow fun as well. Definitely recommend coming here for great take out!

Our fav place for a big family dinner so that we can get a taste of all the dishes we like best! Peking pork chops, salt and pepper tofu, a big plate of noodles are not to be missed but my all time favorite thing to eat anywhere is China Chili's Peking Duck! Succulent meat, crackling skin, homemade buns (we get extra) Be prepared for the food to come out hot and quick! Good service, can get busy!

I gave three for the great customer service. The employees were extremely attentive, social and kind. I really wanted to love this place! I have been planning on coming here for months! Appetizers- crab puffs. They were just a breath of crab. Super scant. Tiny and thin. We also got the egg rolls. They were super thin like lumpia AND they were cut in half!!!! We paid almost seven dollars for2 overcooked egg rolls. I ordered the Mongolian chicken- it should have been called Mongolian onions! Green onion, white onion- just a few pieces of chicken. Seriously, I get a little nauseous if I eat too many onions- my stomach was definitely rolling! Not good! My friend got the hot and spicy prawns. I wish I would have ordered that- even though they weren't anything to write home about. I brought home the leftover onions and Mongolian sauce - I think I'm going to just trash it. Save your $ if you want tasty Chinese.

Food and prices. If you are going to charge the big prices you need to change the quality and protein size. It's almost to the level of a vegetarian dish. SMH

Good food, ambiance needs updating. Service is efficient and fast. Good orange chicken.

We had an amazing time! The food was DELICIOUS! The service was excellent. The ambiance was clean, inviting and organized. 10/10!

Still on the hunt for the best Chinese food in PHX area. Stop by China Chili with some friends for dinner. Service was decent didn't make any recommendations . We had Lo mein, chicken in Phoenix nest, Mongolian beef, and moo shu. The top items were the Mongolian beef and the moo shu. Will visit again.

I lived in China for several years and Peking duck was often my staple food. I can safely say China Chili's Peking duck is right up there. I also love their fish in black bean sauce and honey walnut prawns. I'm giving it four stars because when I ordered beef and broccoli the broccoli was way overcooked, same with the Hong Kong noodles. But overall it's a great restaurant. I get food from them every week or so.

This restaurant has extremely fast service, which is definitely appreciated. The food has great flavor, and the service is good. The only thing I would've mentioned is that some of the items are ridiculously overpriced. I ordered frozen lobster tails, which barely had any meat, they tasted like they had been in the freezer for quite some time, and I was charged $60.00 for the dish.

We go here often and it is honestly the best Chinese food I've ever had. It's always clean and fresh. The service is really fast and efficient. I can't say enough about the food though. The house special chicken is delicious and it's all white meat chicken and you can tell it's not frozen it's fresh. The boiled wontons as an appetizer is a soup but so flavorful. Every time we go it's amazing and we are never disappointed. And less than 50 for two people is very affordable and there's always food leftover for the next day.

We drove to China Chili from Scottsdale for our Sunday Easter dinner, and it did not disappoint! One of the oldest, if not now the oldest Chinese restaurant in Arizona, it is like you stepped into a movie, with the decor and authentic ambiance. The tables are big and round and they rotate - this place is the real deal "family style" restaurant. The food was excellent - fresh with large cuts, no skimping. We got cashew chicken, mongolian beef, sweet & sour pork, moo shu beef, fried rice, and... peking duck! It was Easter and our family was together so we splurged. The peking duck came with pancakes that the server wrapped at the table. My only complaint would be that the pancakes were ice cold, I would have preferred them steaming hot. The duck was absolutely delectable & succulent and the sauce that came with it was on point. I would order the duck again on another special occasion but maybe switch the pancakes or request them served piping hot. The sweet & sour pork was another highlight! It was done the authentic way (our favourite takeout place does them as the large corndough balls) and I would definitely order it again. Absolutely delicious. As was the mongolian beef and cashew chicken. The onions and celery etc were perfectly sliced and perfectly crisp and fresh. My gluten-free diet restricted mother-in-law really liked her moo shu beef, and our toddler dug into his fried rice and sampled a bit of everything. We got a couple Tsingtao beers and sodas and our huge family feast cost about $200. Very reasonable! The service was excellent and friendly and I can't stress enough how family-oriented the whole experience is. It had been over a decade since I went to China Chili for a business lunch. After our Easter feast, we have decided it is now our family's new go-to sit-down Chinese restaurant. Well worth the 1/2 hour drive! Xiexie
