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.

Marginal at best. The prices are decent, but the food just wasn't great at all. The flavors were indistinguishable where the chow mein tasted like my chicken fried rice, and everything, everything was far too greasy. The plate my meal was served on was "clean", but the heavy staining was reminiscent of my great-grandmother's 1970s plasticware. In its favor, the service was friendly, exceptionally fast, and I was full spending only $8. Verdict: I won't be back for round 2.

Well... We didn't get sick from it- so it gets two stars. But anyone complimenting the food highly has never had good chinese, or even Panda Express. Soggy outside, jerky inside general tso chicken and slimy eggrolls, Sauces that have color but not much else to them and veg that are good but not actually cooked through. MIght have seen better days, according to some reviews but best avoided at this point.

Good food - great prices - huge portions!! Our group of 4 ordered Kung-Pow chicken, Moo Goo Gai Pan, & Cashew chicken / all served with wonderful BBQ pork fried rice, egg rolls, & won tons. All of the food was made fresh and served hot - a little slow on getting the food, but worth the short wait. The location is not great - kind of in an industrial area, but the restaurant and the area felt safe enough and was well lit. The restaurant itself is "nice" enough (another review referenced a hole-in-the-wall, which is accurate, but, "never" what would be considered "fine" dining. Overall, we had a great meal at a very family friendly budget price. Dinner for 4 with leftovers for 2 more was $55 with tax & tip - we could have easily fed 4 adults for about $30 - and they offer their menu to-go. Recommended - good food.

I started coming to this restaurant as soon as it opened like 6+ years ago because i live like 2 blocks away. The food here is delicious in a bit too greasy kinda way. The service is iffy at times communication wise, but other than that your cup rarely runs dry, the food comes out fast, and the prices are incomparable. Im gonna come here as long as my heart can take it. Definitely a Tucson dish. I usually get the BBQ pork fried rice, most every time.

OH Mei Hon! Probably one of the best places to get chinese food. It is in the barrio but still doesnt mean that it beats out places that are suppose to be "superior" because Mei Hon is as good as it gets! Their mongolian chicken is very delicious...has just the right amount of kick! I also love their bbq pork lo-mein. Mei Hon has been a family tradition of our for years and I look forward to coming home to Tucson and making mei hon one of my first stops!

I wanted to give this more stars, the bbq pork fried rice is amazing! BUT the moo shi pork left lots to be desired... They totally hooked me up on my last night there. I pulled in as they were about to close and they still happily took my order (and the guy after me too, even though they had turned off the sign). The service was quick, friendly, and came with a smile. The bbq prok fried rice came with delicious (now I'm salivating just thinking about it)

I visited this location on a rainy Saturday night in the summer and it was busy, but not overly crowded. The service was fine and the people seemed friendly and for about $10 I got a great meal that left plenty of left overs for the next day. I have to say I found this to be the best Chinese food that I've had in my 3 years of living in Tucson and I will return again soon! I had the Mongolian Chicken dinner combination and they don't skimp on the quantities or the wonderful taste!

This is my favorite Chinese restaurant! The staff is always friendly and remembers you!!

Food was ok. Many other better choices in Tucson. Service was poor and beware they add gratuity without informing you. Overall restaurant not very clean and not welcoming. It's rare for me to give such a low review but for sure me and my family won't be returning.

$5-$6 lunch specials, (egg roll, fried wonton, soup, rice and entree). Food is served in less than 10 minutes. Curious...gave me the feeling that the items on the lunch menu were all pre-made, and heated when ordered (food was piping hot). I went for the chicken lo-mein with fried rice, hot & sour soup. Soup had large amount of vegetables, not especially spicy, but decent enough. The lo-mein, nary a vegetable, and just a few bites of chicken. The fried rice lacked flavor and while it did have a small piece of egg...lacked any other ingredients. Restaurant could use a thorough cleaning for sure. Stickyness to the table and chairs, and dried sauce on the walls. Overall, a disappointing trip, yet not one that will keep me from giving it another go. I'll skip the lunch menu next time though.

Food is great and service is great can't complain that's our new favorite Chinese place to
(5)Daniel A.
I must say, it used to be better when the old owners were there. Ever since these new owners took over the food has been getting worse, not only that but the amount of food is getting smaller and smaller now they have smaller boxes for when you order to go. Very disappointed. I hope the old owners come back or open a new place.
(2)Christina H.
Pleasantly surprised. Dinner was yummy and service was amazingly fast. Had chicken low-mein, beef and broccoli, and sweet and sour chicken.

Yay, finally a good Chinese place in Tucson. It was only 4 miles away from where I live, so that made it even better. Sarah N. and I went last night and had a really good meal. I ordered the Sesame Chicken and she got some potstickers. We shared our meal and both were very happy with our orders. The place was packed for being close to its closing time. I could tell this place was extremely popular. The Sesame chicken was fried and covered in delicious sauce that had a hint of spice. I loved how light the pieces of chicken felt in my mouth. The potstickers were made traditionally, fried on one side and steamed the rest of the way for a doughier texture with a juicy inside. I loved the sauce that came with it. The portions were large, and Sarah and I could not finish one meal and one appetizer together.

Thumbs down..... tried a dish from here for lunch one day this spring and haven't been back since..... enough said. poor qaulity control and total lack of flavor drove this rating to the pits of 1 star only..... not inpressed , not at all

Ick. When Jack in the Box has better egg rolls, you should just give up the biz. We were in the airport neighborhood and wanted some takeout chinese when we ended up going to this place. The food was ready pretty quickly and it was hot. That's *it.* The food was also: bland like a communion wafer washed in bleach, and overpriced. We ordered a hot and sour soup (which was *neither*) and needed both salt and soy sauce to bring it to vaguely soup quality. Egg rolls that had cabbage, but no cabbage flavor (or any flavor actually) and entree items like General Tso's chicken that was cooked, and *looked* seasoned properly but actually had no flavor and was more than a little dry once actually bitten into.

Mongollian Beef is the way to go...... excellent.

It is not the best but it isn't the worst. When you walk in, its self seating and you are greeted by the nice ladies that work there. We ordered the combination appetizer, jasmine tea, a large war wonton soup and house special lo mein. There was maybe two other tables there when we were there around 145pm and our food came out really fast, it was surprising. The combination appetizer came with 2 of the crab puffs, dumplings, vegetable egg rolls, some fried thing, pork and another fried thing. The crab puffs were good and so were the dumplings. There was a ton of flavor in the dumplings for it being small. The egg rolls were ok, not bad but panda express makes better sad to say. The war wonton soup is very good in my opinion. I have never had it anywhere else as I usually get egg drop or egg flower soup, but I don't like theirs so that's why we got the war wonton. Like I said, I thought it was very good but then again, I have nothing to compare it to. The house lo mein was ok, I feel that the noodles to bean sprout ratio was off, like I was eating a house bean sprout dish, and some of the shrimp weren't de veined. Which bothered me, but if it doesn't bother you to eat them that way then don't worry about it. We ordered Jasmine tea, but only because they don't have or carry green tea, which I thought was strange seeing as most if not all Asian restaurants have green tea, but maybe that's just me. The jasmine tea was good, it came with a lemon which made it taste better. Overall this meal came out to $27.70 after tax. Would I dine here again, probably, but not because I'm craving their food. It'd just be because of a whim or I'm too lazy to go eat at another Asian restaurant that's far away. So maybe 1 every year and a half or once every 2 years.

This place is delicious! we tried this for the first time the other night, and we will be back! Great, authentic food for extremely low prices! We had the Cantonese dinner specials, which include soup, wontons, and an egg roll, as well as your entree. The hot and sour soup is phenomenal! The sweet and sour chicken was delicious. We also tried the pot stickers, which were my favorite that night. So good!
(4)Ainee B.
The services was great. All of them can speaks English very well, friendly, and fast. The place very flat and quite clean. I ordered Mongolian beef and curry beef with total amount $20. The amount is quite big for 1 plate. The Mongolian beef was great, cooked fast and fresh. The curry beef was OK, sweet, and saucy. I was expected that the curry beef should have a thick gravy. Well, I believed that each regions of their city have an authentic food's signature and maybe this is one of it. I definitely going back again to this place!

A hole in the wall I wanted to love but couldn't. It reminded me of a small restaurant in a Chinatown, and the meal was generous sized and the sauce was awesome. The kung pao chicken only had three pieces of small white chicken bites and the rest was filler with bamboo shoots, peanuts, and chestnuts. So disappointing. I felt like I wasted $5. Best soups in Tucson though!
(3)Ron R.
Friendly people and good food. I moved so it's been awhile since I have eaten here. I wish they had one up on river and 1st.

Usually order the BBQ duck. Actually just have to walk in the door to be asked "1 duck?" Love the food and the service. Only complaint I have is having to pay per glass for soda.

Know the owners since I went to school with their eldest son, and worked with the family for a bit over a year...super nice people and the food is awesome. Don't know much about the Irvington location, I went to the eastside location on Harrison and Golf Links, they've temporarily closed down but I heard that they plan to re-open soon. I've ordered to-go before and to keep it from getting soggy I opened the bags and boxes that had fried food in it. Also, I asked for it extra crispy as well to help with that (both dine-in and take-out). Chinese food was never a favorite of mine, but this place defnintely changed my mind. The best in town I think, and from what I heard from lots of other customers, their favorite spot as well, some customers even said they drove from Marana once a week to eat there. Others said it was comparable to Chinese food in NY.

Very fresh, prompt and pleasant service. House Fried Rice is awesome 100% recommend. One of the best in Tucson

I'm new to Tucson and was looking for a Chinese cuisine "not Panda Express'. This place was recommended by a couple of locals. We ordered, hot and spicy chicken wigs. The wigs were salty and dry, there were plenty of green peppers and garlic. if you like salty wigs, This is a perfect disk. KungPao Chicken has too much of water chestnut, and not enough chicken, I think they might have replace water chestnut for chicken. This dish has more sweet flavor. Their "Crispy Chow Mei" is unusual. Instead of using egg noodles (yellow), they use fried flour chips. It's weird. But it was tasty. Mongolian beef was pretty tasty. We all enjoyed it. If you are in the mood for soup, their Sizzling Rice soup was delicious. Overall, I wouldn't recommend for out of town friends.

If you find yourself lost in the ghetto or you just live in south Tucson you might come across this privately owned Chinese place. Their claim to fame is they sell/sold Asian beer that was the same name as the restaurant. Basically it's a small place. Not very well decorated and you can even see into the kitchen area from the dining area. I planned to take out so I don't know if they have free drink free refills or anything about the service but I can say that the food was ok. I order the General Tso chicken and it wasn't that crispy and neither was the egg rolls, but again take out can some time gets soggy. While I waited I did look at the menu and what other people got and it seemed like an ok place to eat. But since egg rolls are my main attraction for most Chinese places I declined a repeat visit. This place was average at best with a good menu but I doubt I would ever take someone there to eat.
