Phoenix Palace

We decided on Vietnamese Cuisine for dinner. We drove to a couple of our "Go-To" spots and realized they were closed for vacation. Drove to another Vietnamese restaurant and was informed that their kitchen had closed for the night (we got a late start due to my gym workout lasting a little longer than expected.) We looked across the parking lot and saw Phoenix Palace, so decided to eat there. Upon entering we were met with warm, friendly staff who seated us immediately. The dining room is very spacious and beautifully decorated. It was evident that this restaurant is fully equipped to host private special events, such as, wedding receptions and the like. We ordered Beef Chow Fun, Orange Chicken, Steamed Veggies with Shrimp. Each dish tasted great! I was especially impressed with the Orange Chicken. It was the best I've had in a very long time. It looked amazing; nice and plump while perfectly coated in delicious sweet and sour sauce. The sauce was light and not overly saturating. The texture of the chicken was perfect. Each bite was as good as the last. Each bite had a light crisp followed by tender meat. The chicken maintained its internal temperature very well, as each piece tasted very fresh. Glad we stopped here and look forward to coming back for Dim Sum!

I'm kind of super bummed that I didn't like this place. Went to try dim sum outside of our regular local spot(s). My boyfriend and I came here and sadly there were bugs on our table and the was a complete dead fly in our shumai. Thank goodness I looked at the black bug more closely. But perhaps the bugs were due to us sitting so close to the entry...When I informed a server she immediately took it away and gave us a new one but it turned us off. What I had before that point was good but I just cannot get that image out of my head

I'm surprised I nverr reviewed this place. I've been coming here for years.. This is my go to dim sum place. Best to come before lunch time during the weekend. It does get pretty busy. Not a cheap place to eat but that also depends on what you order. Just know bigger the plate more expensive . I've had other dim sum place in the valley but this is the one place I always come back to. Pretty good selections of dishes also.$74 bux before tip. Ouch

Ambiance isn't bad, the staff is friendly, service pretty good.We came during the week right when they opened, and it wasn't busy.The food is pretty good. We had the dim sum and are satisfied.

The host was a bit rude. We asked about dim sum and he said "we don't do that". He was very stand-off ish and nonchalant. We asked questions and he said "it's like any other restaurant". Impolite. Did not stop us from trying the food, we wanted to satisfy our cravings. All the other servers were on it and super nice. The food was good. This is what we got between us two and 2 Cantonese dinners!! Very filling , be ready for lots of leftovers! A good place for big crowds. They have the glass circles on larger tables to spin and share entrees easier. My favorite thing was the chicken lettuce wraps.

Came here for the first time since we really wanted dim sum, and it did not disappoint. This place is the traditional dim sum restaurant where the dim sum rolls around on the cart and you choose what you want. The service is quick once you get seated, but you really have to pay attention and flag down the server if you're not seated near the aisles where they roll around. You can also order dishes if you want something specific and don't see them rolling around on the carts. The food was great, definitely won't be my last time here.

First time eating here. Was seated immediately and was helped right when we sat down. They do have a menu but you need to ask for it. The servers walk around with a cart full of options. It can be confusing for a first timer, but they are there to explain. Majority of what we got was fresh. We also ordered off the menu which took around 5-10 minutes to arrive. Arrived on a busy day so it was loud. No music or TV in the background. I'd come back here again, as this place is good for share plates.

One of the best dim sum restaurants we've been to in AZ, they bring the carts over frequently enough where you aren't sitting waiting, give this place a try!

A great dim sum place. Not anything fancy or extravagant, quick and direct service. There's usually a bit of a wait but it is worth it. Prices are reasonable. It's a cozier space, with many round tables crowded together. Some days we've had it where the food is a bit saltier than others but still good.It definitely scratches the dim sum itch, and is on par with what you expect. Do not expect to be treated like you're anything special, and be prepared to push back on dishes you DONT want making to your table, but that's all just a part of the experience. If you go with a seasoned dim sum connoisseur you'd have a better time, but is still totally do-able as a first timer. Good luck out there!

We've been coming here off and on for over ten years now. It's been our go-to place for dim sum on this side of the Valley. We've come for dim sum on both weekdays and weekends. Understandably, weekdays have less of a selection since it's drastically not as busy as weekends. However, on our most recent weekday visit, we found out their smaller selection got condensed even more. Previously, on past weekday visits, we were still able to get about seven to nine different items that we like. On our more recent visit, however, they only had about five items that we liked in their selection. If you're coming here for dim sum, I would only recommend coming on the weekend now instead of any day of the week, but make sure you come early so you can snag a table without having to wait for a long time for one to open up. Depending on how busy they are, service can be a hit or a miss. I will say though, that the taste of their food is average, yet consistent.
