    This place has great food. Their portions are large, we can usually eat off one meal for two nights (for me, sometimes three) and while it's a little pricey, since we're getting more than one meal, I don't complain. The orange chicken is a favorite, and the lo mein is always good. The crab puffs (I think they call them angels on the menu) are super yummy. I confess, I have ordered the crab puffs and an egg roll for dinner before. Don't judge. They are very quick as well - I can call them on my way home from work when I'm about 10 minutes away and pick it up right when I get there.

    I LOVEEEEEEEEEEE Chens. The food is so tasty and the prices are beyond reasonable. The dinner portions are so big, I always have leftovers for 2 days or more. Lunch specials are about 6 bucks and are a great size. The owner is nice, he addresses me by my name everytime he sees me ( I work in the center, so eat there often) He also let me leave my business cards on the table by the entrance. Also if you are watching your weight, you gotta try the chicken lettuce wraps. SO TASTY

    We can't speak highly enough of Chen's. Though we long since moved away from the Gold Canyon area, we return as often as we can. They are worth the drive. The food is phenomenal, the service outstanding (they make us feel like Norm on Cheers every time we show up!), the price is right and the portions are huge. When family come to visit from out-of-state they always request to visit Chen's. If you haven't, go try them today! And, as another poster said, the egg rolls are some of the very best you'll ever have!

    Very good food. Very fresh for Chinese food. The shrimp fried rice was very fresh. Great service. They had high chairs for my 1 year old and were very nice about the mess she made.

    LOVE this place! GREAT lunch specials! You get A LOT of food for less than 6 bucks, and it's DELICIOUS! Granted, they do give you small plate of lettuce with ranch dressing and call it a salad. BUT for less than 6 bucks you get delicious Chinese food, soup, and "salad." You STILL can't beat a lunch like that anywhere else. As for dinner, it is a little pricy for their dinner plates. But I would say it's definitely worth it. You get enough food to last for two or three meals, and it's delicious! I highly recommend this Gold Canyon restaurant!

    Great customer service, large portions, great prices, good food. If you are from back east like me, I would simply suggest asking questions before ordering as the meal I ordered wasn't exactly what I was used to but it was still very good. You can tell they take pride in their restaurant and are very attentive throughout the meal.

    Good food at a decent price. Huge sizes as well for a family of three we could have eaten one meal not three that we ordered. The bathrooms were gross but the food was great!

    I found a new favorite place! I was in Gold Canyon on business with my step dad. After we finished we were hungry. We didn't feel like driving into Apache Junction so we looked for some place close before we headed home ( we live in Miami). We found this place by chance and am I glad we did! The service was great! As others have said the lunch specials are about $6 each but you get the perfect amount of food! Not too much but not small either. I got the Kung Po, I don't remember what my step dad got. Both of us loved our meals. We both decided when ever we are in the area we will stop by.

    This place was mediocre at best. The rice was very good and the soups were very good we both had the sesame chicken and it was extremely syrupy sweet. The eggrolls were not very good and the crab ragoons were small. We don't plan on eating here again.

    Dishonest, sells at two prices day old food, soggy vegetables, when there is a problem such as selling day old food suddenly the English gets bad.. Be careful as your food is not fresh cooked!!!

    Yum. Good egg rolls, no make that great. Some of the best egg rolls I've ever had. Portions are very good sized and quite tasty. Sorry, didn't like the egg drop soup. Then again, I don't like egg drop soup. Service is sometimes a bit slow but food does come fast after the order is taken. They do takeout also and expect a lot. They don't short the take out orders like I've seen in the past. All in all I'd say this is one of the better Chinese places in the east valley.

    First let me tell you I've eaten here a lot and I love the egg fu yong and my husband loves the orange chicken and chop suey. I haven't disliked anything I've eaten there except maybe the egg drop soup. The problem I have is the cleanliness of the place came into question the other day when we went around noon and they were cleaning and de-stringing snow peas on the table next to us. They were spread out on the table and the staff would stop by and clean a few when they had a minute. However, none washed their hands before handling the peas. Ok, I can live with that I guess. But what really grossed us out was when the manager sitting at the table directly over the peas was taking on his phone eating a cookie. Oh and it gets worse, suddenly there were two sneezes and my husband who was sitting across from me with a direct view of the pea table watched this guy sneeze directly on the peas without covering his mouth or turning away. I could see the blood drain from his face as he put his fork down. He's already a very picky eater. He said "that dude just sprayed those peas with phlegm!!" That was the end of his meal. I tried to finish mine but I just couldn't swallow. I tried to convince him and me that this was only a one time occurrence, and if we waited a few month till we came back those peas would be gone. But, if this goes on in plain view, what goes on in the back. It's a total bummer because this was our go to restaurant for Asian cuisine, but sadly no longer.

    Our favorite place to eat in Gold Canyon. Whenever we arrive for our winter vacation, before we even have a chance to grocery shop, we run to Chen's first. It's that special ! We always feel so welcomed by James, the owner and we are greeted like old friends by the staff. Food is consistently delicious, always freshly cooked to order and served hot. Excellent quality food. The portions are very generous and rarely does a person leave without some to take home. Try egg foo yong there, which is like none other I've tasted in my travels...It's 3 huge dumplings with a yummy sauce. Sesame chicken and moo goo guy pan are favorites as well. Very reasonably priced.. We highly recommend it !

    We have eaten there twice in the past week. Very friendly, courteous and efficient service. When I did a takeout, the hostess made sure my food was hot when I arrived and did not sit around to cool off. The Chicken Curry was very good..but somewhat spicy if that matters to you. Make sure you check the "spice" indicators next to the menu items. Ample servings and reasonably priced. We will go back.

    Oh Yea, some great Chinese Food on the WAY east side of the Valley! No, really, its WAY east of the valley but worth the drive, really, it is...! I love me some great Chinese Food but compared to what I've had in Europe, most of the restaurants around the valley just don't compare BUT Chen's is dead on! The flavors are spot on, the portions are great, atmosphere is nice and relaxing and the service is the most friendliest you will ever experience (just make sure you speak clear English)...

    If you want something substantial and cheap for lunch then Chen's is your spot. I had lunch here last week. The $5.50 lunch special. Came with a side salad. Actually strips of lettuce with ranch dressing. A cup of egg drop soup, which was actually delicious. Then all the main dishes come with rice, crab angel, and an egg roll. Also a drink. I had the Moo Goo Gai Pan. Not the best I've ever had but pretty solid. This won't be my go to place for lunch but with meal, tax, and tip I only spent $9.50 so that's one hell of a deal.

    We went there for the lunch special. There was a good variety of dishes available for the low price of $5.25. My boyfriend got the Mongolian Beef which is a spicy plate and he said it was just right. I ordered the Sesame Chicken and it tasted good, except... I'll tell you what, if you are not able to eat sweets, please don't order this. It had more sugar in it then a hot fudge sundae. I was disappointed that they didn't have white rice. Only a small scoop of fried rice or brown rice. But hey, brown rice is better for ya. While I'm on the subject of rice, I don't know about you, but what I'm used to, and what I wish they had was a heap of white rice along side the chicken. Which is fine if you want more of the main stuff. The atmosphere was just right. Not too many gaudy Chinese decorations, just tastefully done. The staff is friendly, service was fast and the food was piping hot. I'm giving 4 stars because the food was delicious and priced very well.

    I love Chen's! It's a family favorite. The staff are very friendly and the atmosphere is nice... not too dark or loud, just right. Plus the food is delicious. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu but I particularly love their potstickers.

    Lunch specials for 4 ended up being less than $30 and included soup, salad, egg roll, crab puff and an enormous entrée with fried rice. Food came quickly and was very hot... both temperature and spicy.

    Went there today for lunch....I got the orange chicken and I cant remember the name of the plate my husband got but it was spicy and it had nuts in it... We each took probably two bites and that was it.. The egg rolls were probably the worst i have ever had! The Great Wall in Gold Canyon is 100 times better! The Rice Garden was better then this place and i hate that place too.. The staff was very friendly though i will give them that and that is it.. Will not be going back.....

    We really like this place. The staff is friendly, food is very good and it's hot, even when I take it to go it's hot when I get home. It's been hard to find good Chinese food since we moved here 8 years ago from Washington state. We are so happy to have found Chen's.

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.
