"It is said that Phoenix has pretty good food choices so we traveled from Maricopa Az to try find a good Chinese spot. Reviews lead us to pick this place see for ourselves how the food was. I wish we hadn't because our first experience will never lead us back here ever again. We ordered for pickup I hate doing that because if something is wrong with food we will not see it until we are home eating it. Can't take it back get money back. We ordered: Tangerine Beef- beef was dried out meat breaded saturated in a overwhelming orange peel tasting sauce. Sesame Chicken- Fried tasteless thick cut of chicken breast laid in thin gravy. 2 orders of Chicken Egg Foo Young- found something stringy on patty otherwise they were good until found that long string lost my appetite. Fried Wontons- way, way over cooked with 1/4 tsp of cream cheese sitting with all that Wonton wrap. Panda Express has better Wonton! They were absolutely unedible like eating a day old Wonton. Egg Rolls- very small, thin wrapping nasty. My two year old wouldn't even eat it she loves egg rolls. Chicken Fried Rice- Very dry, not a lot of flavor, hardly no vegetables or eggs. It was just like eating rice that soaked up all the soy sauce to get the color, no moisture at all. I was so looking forward to some good Chinese food since I hadn't had any in a month. Sadly to say, this place was a horrible first visit lots of money in the garage. Portion size are small for take home orders, they don't even fill up your containers. The prices for the food is just way over priced for the quality food portions. Very disappointing ? I hope this review make them step up their game start making good food for the next customers."
