Chinese Cuisine
The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.
Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.
There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.

We had a delivery dinner last night. It did take a while for it to be delivered. The food was of poor quality. My Sweet n Sour Chicken was very dry and brittle. My Husbands Cho Pou Chicken was stringy and dry. The egg rolls were dry and tasteless. The NEW MANAGEMENT (OWNERS) Need to take lessons from the PREVIOUS OWNERS when the quality of food was much-much better. The delivery time was more prompt. CJD'A-Teague

So we waited until the Re-Birth of New York Wok under New Management Restaurant layout. .. Has more seating and they stream lined the counter. Moved the soda fridge by kitchen. So we had the order and waited, and waited Food was hot....... And then the wheels fall off! I love the food here and I have Lost that Loving Feelings My order of Kung Pao Two. ... About the strangest, light on sauce, heavy on fishy Shrimp! Uncoated Chicken. TOO DAMN MANY VEGETABLES! ! My sons order General Tso Chicken NOTHOT. .. WAS HOT. ... GREASY, STRANG CONSISTENCY. . THEY HAVE COMBINATION. ..hot to fet them is a Ancient Chinese Secret. My wife asked if the Sweet and Sour Shrimp was heavily coated... They brought out a very nice Butterflied Shrimp with a perfect amount of a tasty Tempora coating. I have to say today was a sad, sad, sad day. I thought long and hard and decided. .Its time for ua to Cook Chinese. I have several recipes and only need a few things. Thanks to a strong Asian Restaurant Supply selection of places to buy. I am sure we will find our Happy Asian Place. Thanks for the poor food and inspiration to cook it My Damn Self. Ni Hoa, Hop Chung Mao

Have not been back here since the new owners took over & based on the reviews I'm glad I haven't. If anyone wants a new chinese place, check out Grand Dargon on 47th Ave & Dunlap!!!!

Food tasted like shit there cooks should take lessons on cooking Chinese food or do u call it that order a shirmp dish only got 3 maybe 4 anyways who ever brought da place is gonna lose it due to very bad food do us all a favor and sell da place stop taking people hard earn money
(1)Monica C.
If I could give this restaurant zero stars I would! Apparently after April 5 it has new owners and new COOKS, because the food use to be great and now it taste HORRIBLE!!! Everything is drowning in some sort of sauce which seems to be a universal one, gross! Also, no one there speaks English either, which is very convenient when one calls to complain. You've been warned!!!
(1)Joe B.
No condiments, no bowls, cold soup, bland food...Please take some pride and clean up your parking lot in front of your restaurant.
(2)Robert V.
This used to be the best. It was real New York East Coast style Chinese food. Sadly, the place was sold in April 2015 and the menu is totally different. It's literally the worst food I've ever had. I spent a long time trying to think of worse food. I can't. I couldn't eat more than three bites. It's just awful. AVOID.
(1)Bo G.
We used to love this place and would order once a week. It was family owned and the young girl answering the phone already knew our order. This was our first try after it was sold in April and we will not be back. Nothing we ordered was worth eating, the sauce was horrible and we were given chicken when we ordered shrimp. I called to speak with a manager who of course was not in and was met with little apologies and no resolution. If anyone knows where the original owners went I would love to know.
(1)Eddie E.
Wish I could give this place a zero! The food was awful they put the sauce for the sweet and sour sauce on the side? Which I don't know why, I ordered the fried rice they gave me white rice, the rice was flavorless the soy sauce couldn't even make it good. Would def never go back unless they made some major changes! DO NOT EAT HERE UNLESS YOU WANT BLAND FOOD. I didn't think I could ever say that about any Chinese food place in my life. The staff were pretty friendly and understanding but they need to get the old cooks back the food is awful,terrible,horrible, bland.
(1)Bill D.
We search and search and search for good, inexpensive chinese food, and I think we have finally found it. So far, the food has been great. Not TERRIBLY impressed with the shrimp Mei Fun, but I think it's just because it wasn't what we were expecting. The Singapore Noodles are AMAZING, egg rolls are great, and they have the best hot and sour soup (which has no meat) of any of the local places around here. I understand the critics who say the food is bland - because most places put so much cloying, thick, syrupy gook on all of the food, one can't experience the freshness of the vegetables, and the simplistic cooking style that should go into these dishes. They get it just right, in my book at this place. YUM. Will definitely go back.
(4)Kathryn S.
We have loved this place for several years but I think it must of changed hands!! This place is no longer New York style!! The fried dumplings, egg rolls, and the crash puffs are frozen and the main course let a real bad aftertaste and the fried rice was actually plain brown rice!! Very sad that the food is no longer made with love - we asked when placing the order if there were new owners when we placed our order because they didn't recognize the numbers from the menu and they said no. After receiving our dinner, we called them back and they admitted they just took it over and insisted they advised us otherwise!!
(1)Phil J.
sad face they changed owners. no more ny chinese food. this was my favorite low key stop .
(1)Sara M.
**updated review with new management** we looked forward to our weekly Chinese night meal from our favorite place. Sadly disappointed!! The Mongolian beef had way too much pepper it was barely eaten. The garlic chicken was WAY over seasoned with garlic. The egg rolls that used to be the best ever are now only stuffed with what looks like cabbage and carrots. The shrimp with lobster sauce is now a brown sauce that is mainly huge chunks of green bell peppers. The rice that comes with the combination meals tastes just like unseasoned white rice. It has egg and peas but absolutely NO flavor at all. Now, after all of that the ONLY thing I did like was the crab puff. Sad sad day. Now I gotta find something else to eat for dinner.

We ordered delivery for the first time from this restaurant last week and it was great! You can do all of your ordering online which I thought was super helpful - and - they delivered until 10pm!!. We had the sweet and sour chicken (5/5), chicken with cashew nuts (5/5), curry chicken with onions (4/5) and spring rolls (3/5). The rice came with each of the main dishes and was delicious! The curry did not taste milky-ish as I have become accustomed to and enjoy, but instead was on the watery side and had a lot of bell pepper flavor. Overall good and I will definitely be back in person!

I've been to plenty of hole in the wall "Chinese Food" restaurants, but this one is definitely better than most. Portions were good for the price and everything was actually pretty good. There were a few reviews saying that the it was "bland" or the consistency of the food was bad. Sorry to say this, but it isn't a Panda Express with doughy-breaded meats and blasphemous proportions of sauces and salts. In all honesty, the food was really good. There was no overabundance of sauce or salt, and everything flavored just right. Some of the dishes only come off as "bland" if you eat some of the richer flavored foods first. For example: the egg drop soup. I order the Sesame Seed Chicken and after eating that, the soup tasted bland until I cleaned my pallet where I was greeted by a nice light soup. In addition I tried their Wonton Soup, General Tso's Chicken, Orange Chicken, and Home-made Egg Roll all of which were equally as good as the next. I HIGHLY recommend this restaurant for those who want to eat good hole in the wall food. P.S. Just a tip, for hole in the wall restaurants either ask what their specialty is, what is ordered the most, or what the employees like to eat. Those tend to be what the restaurant is best at making and thus the best tasting.

I ordered food from this worthless establishment last night and when the idiot finally got to my door he starts yelling at me saying that I gave him the wrong address. After a couple of minutes of this mindless delivery guy arguing with me I show him a piece of mail to finally shut him up and get my food. Then he complains to me that I didn't tip him!! Umm hello!!?! You come to my house yelling at me when you are clearly wrong then expect a tip!? I don't think so. Then I call the place to complain to management about their deliver guy and they didn't care at all about what happened. The food was horrible and the service doesn't even deserve to be called service. If I wanted to be yelled at by an Asian man I'd join a karate class. This was the worst place I've ever paid money to in my life. A complete waste of time and money
(1)Joe R.
In a word...AVOID! Food was very bland and tasted like it had actually been made in a wok in New York and shipped via bike messenger to Arizona. Egg rolls and rangoons were stale and had almost no filling. Boneless spareribs were black around edges, extremely hard and had almost no flavor. Fried rice was over cooked, and was little more than white rice with a bit of soy sauce. Although the dumplings appeared homemade, they were very bland, and shriveled like they may have been reheated. They were not even folded like a proper Chinese dumpling but simply folded in half. Food at local cheap ($5) Chinese buffets are far better than anything I got from here. I have noticed that the reviews for this place used to be excellent, at least until the last few months. This usually indicates new owners, cutbacks or a staff that just doesn't care anymore.
(1)Brittani C.
I really wanted to like the food, but sadly I couldn't. The crab angels hardly even taste like real crab puffs. Not only that, but I ordered a shrimp dish and it hardly had any shrimp in it. Fried rice was mediocre. Would not return unless I had no choice.
(2)Mal C.
Coming from NYC originally, it should be illegal for a place like this to be allowed to use my city's name. Instead how 'bout they change it to Pittsburgh because the food really is the Pitts (no offense to all you from Pittsburgh, sorry.)
(1)Andrew V.
Flavor is there but the portions you get for the cost isn't proportionate. The large teriyaki chicken could feed 1 person full but wouldn't really be satisfying enough for two people. It's also a little strange to have such young children working the front desk. I mean that girl maybe was 13 and the boy maybe 9-10. Probably won't come back....
(3)Jaime S.
Yay! I've finally got a local Chinese joint again. After a hit and miss journey New York Wok has become my go-to spot for Chinese American delivery. It's all been very good here, but I'm a freak for their egg rolls, mei fun and chow fun. If you haven't had mei or chow fun before you have to try it here. However their most killer-est dish is the roast pork lo mein. I'm typically disappointed by pork dishes from AZ Chinese restaurants; regardless of the dish the pork is usually bland and/or dry. That's not the case here, the pork is seasoned and roasted well. Spicy beef it a close runner up to the pork lo mein (and is really done justice by a night in the fridge), so be sure to hit some up as well. I've only taken out or had delivery to date, so I can't speak to the wait staff but the counter and delivery service has always been prompt and friendly.

Small sitting area but for take out, no complaints. Children working the desk area no adults to be found, great size portions though for the price...

Stopped in here for lunch today. It is located in the Albertsons Center where I sometimes shop and I had seen it getting ready. This location used to have a water store in it. Nothing really special about this place. It is geared for takeout as there are only 4 tables. They could add 2 more if they wanted. Food was ok. The pork fried rice had bean sprouts and onions in it which seemed different to me. I had the General Tso's chicken lunch special which came with pork fried rice and my choice of a soda or soup ($5.75), I chose hot and sour soup. It seems to be a family run business. The person at the counter was having a rough time understanding much English and had to be helped several times. Minimum credit/debit order is $8 so if you are by yourself getting a lunch special you better have cash. I only took a picture of the back of the menu, inside is over 100 more items. They are open until 10 PM which could come in handy sometimes.

This is a little hole in the wall take out joint. You could eat in, if you want, but there is little ambiance and only 4 tables. I'm incredibly particular and after walking into another Chinese restaurant down the street that was dirty and super stinky, I was scrutinizing this place. It's clean, in fact, it's super clean- at least on the surface. I did smell some backed up drain or something, but ... well, semantics I tell you. I ordered the garlic shrimp combo. Oh my goodness. It was really good.I actually don't even like Chinese food all that much, but I thoroughly enjoyed it all. I'm really happy I popped in. Plus the family running the place was very nice. They're children ran the cash register, while mom and pop cooked the food... They're living the American dream. That's what it's about. I will visit again.
(4)Sean O.
Terrible... Tasted like bad frozen food and only made my stomach toss and turn the rest of the night. Will never order here again.
(1)Liz E.
Great food. Now, friendly family. No MSG which I love and healthy selection too. Our favorite Chinese delivery for sure.
(4)Claudia InA Z.
NY Wok is my new go to place for Chinese food. After my old place kept getting complaints from the health dept, and trying a few other places I just didn't care for, I saw this one when I'd be going to and from the supermarket, so gave them a try. First thing I noticed was how clean the place was. Not much of a place to eat in, but you could if you wanted to....I prefer take out, just wanted to actually see the place first. Their hot & sour soup is wonderful and they are the first ones I call when I feel a head cold coming on. Clears it right up! Their orange chicken is very good, the egg foo yong, the lo mein, the crab ragoons - everything we tried has been delicious. They deliver and I know it's coming from a place that takes pride in their appearance, keeps the place clean, and the delivery, service, and most importantly, the food is always great..
(3)Grant O.
First time ordering from this restaurant the orange chicken was awesome the hot and sour soup was a little spice to it But it was really good and they delivered all the way to 39th Ave. and Northern.
(4)Chris S.
I ordered takeout today from here. The delivery driver was prompt but that wasn't the problem. The driver stunk like stale cigarette smoke so bad i almost gagged. You could smell it on him a few feet away. He handed me my food and left. As I was walking to the kitchen the smell still lingered. i realized it was the bag the food was in, it smelled disgusting. I took the food out and began plating it. I began to smell the smoke again and realized my food completely stunk like the cigarette smoke. It was foul, everything stunk like it. He obviously was chain smoking with the windows up while bringing my food. That has to be one of the grossest things I've ever dealt with food wise. On top of that when I called, the lady informed me there are no refunds and that nobody else had a problem with him smoking in the car while he delivered food. My first experience with New York Wok will absolutely be my last.

Best in Az
(5)Allan B.
Did not like this place at all. Saw all the positive reviews so we ordered delivery. I live 3 miles away and it took almost an hour. Mongolian Beef was very bland and we ended up throwing most of the meal out. Beef was chewy and coated in a slimy corn starch substance that tasted like paste. Shrimp with lobster sauce was more like egg drop soup with shrimp in it. Shrimp were large and cooked properly, but flavor of the rest of the dish was off. Eggrolls were crisp and hot, but the crab puffs were soggy and greasy. I might have ordered the wrong dishes on the wrong night, but doubt I will order from here again.
(1)Lisa H.
Really enjoyed the food at this little hole in the wall, mom-n-pop joint. Fresh ingredients and great flavor. Will definitely be back, best option is take out!
(4)Megan S.
This is the best chinese food I've manged to find in the area and that's after trying at least 65 places (I lost count). I do still miss my Chicago style chinese food, but like I said, this is as good as it gets in the area. This is a great little family run business and there 2 young kids are often there when we go in. There is a small language barrier with the mother, but she is getting better and better, and her two daughters have very good English. We love their eggrolls because they are the only freshly made ones we've found in the area. My other favorites are the wonton soup and chop suey. I'm not big on the fried rice, but its just not my style. My boyfriend loves it however.
(5)Nicole S.
Small but clean. Very friendly. Great food for a small delivery place. Only reason I will not give them 5 stars is because the delivery times have been very inconsistent. Non the less we will continue to give this mom n pop our business.
(4)Bridget H.
I quite like this place a lot. Haven't been in, but have had delivery several times, and it's very very good. I'd recommend it in a moments notice. I get the kung pao chicken and it's always good. I also get vegetable fried rice, and it's so delightful. Yummy!
(5)Chris S.
Best American Chinese joint in the area. Orange chicken is bomb.
(4)Jeff R.
I ordered delivery from here, got an order of General Tso's Chicken extra spicy, pork lo mein, house egg foo yung, and crab puffs. The General Tso's tasted very slightly burnt. I'm pretty sure it's the extra chilis. If you skip the extra spicy, it might be fine. It also came with a couple florets of broccoli. That was new. The crab puffs were solid, but quite greasy - No surprise and not a problem.
(2)Diana Y.
Moving from NY 2 years ago was a big change, didn't realize how big untill I tried the pizza and chinese here. This is the first place that actually knows what duck sauce is.... must be honest what got my attention at first was the name of the place.... food is really good for a take out chinese food... delivery is quick... prices are decent... overall good place to try!!!
(5)Hieu C.
Great place. Very friendly staff. Ordered carry out at 9pm not knowing they actually closed at 9 and they stayed open till 920 for me. Got the orange chicken dark meat with the fried rice. The amount of food they give you was ridiculous. I had enough for two meals and then some. Chicken was tasty and so were the egg rolls and cheese wonton. The fried rice could have been better though. This is probably my go to spot for Chinese since its on my way home from work and also for 8 dollars I have food for two nights.
(4)Dione G.
This place is really good and the price is great too. I am really picky when it comes to eating Chinese food. I know most places hate me because I take out stuff and add stuff and get a lil extra this or that. By the end of ordering I am sure the person on the other end has already spit in my food for being so difficult lol. This place though the people are soooo nice and they always get my order right no matter how difficult i make it I love it. The delivery people are very nice too and the amount of food you get for the price is awesome. I really like that I can get it delivered since I am sick a lot and can't get out so this place is my go to place for delivery. My favorite dish I have had is the Schezwan beef and the fried shrimp. If you are looking for a good delivery place in Glendale I recommend this place.
(4)Rebecca P.
Stopped in to get some lunch but it looked a little dirty so I decided to go elsewhere. Good thing I did because after checking the health ratings I am surprised they're still open- a 27!?!? Really? That is freaking scary! No recent award either.
(1)Chukki S.
We ordered here for lunch and I thought the food was really good. Probbaly the best Chinese food I've had since I've lived in Arizona. I had the General Tso's chicken and it was very flavorful and just a tad spicy. It was also very tender. The meal came with rice and broccoli, which I enjoyed. The portion of chicken was pretty generous considering the whole meal cost $6 with a soda. Ordering on the phone was a bit difficult due to the language barrier, but that just makes the food all that more authentic.
(4)Bill C.
Closed since mid Oct . . .Message still says "Will be back Oct 27" We did get sick one time from the food, but otherwise it was so good we kept coming back. Closest thing to NY Chinese Food I've found since moving here in 1999.
(4)Zombie M.
This place was ok until the woman who rung us up approached our table while we were eating. She shows us the receipt saying she didn't charge us enough for drinks and demands the money hahaha! I understand this is a mom and pop establishment and they need every penny they can get, but honestly we found it very off-putting.
(1)Mary C.
I have never been to the actual location I just order delivery. The first time I ordered I was surprised at how quickly they got to my house. The food was very hot and seemed fresh. The food was good and my husband loved the homemade hot mustard. He always gets the barbecue spare ribs and enjoys every last bite along with the fried dumplings with plum sauce. I honestly think if I wasn't around he would just drink the plum sauce. I get anything chicken and I do the combos. I have had the sweet and sour, General Tso's, Sesame, and orange chicken. All of the combos come with pork fried rice and the dinner ones come with an egg roll while the lunch comes with your choice of egg roll, soda, or soup. My daughter gets the vegetable soup and eats every bite, I have had the wonton which is good and the egg drop. My husband had the hot and sour and really enjoyed it. Whenever we are short on money and high on hunger we order out from here. It is really one of the best delivery Chinese places in this area.
