| - We just stumbled into this place on a trip to Phoenix last weekend. Maybe it's a matter of taste in view of the other review on this page, but we thought this place serves GREAT Chinese, with excellent attentive service and excellent prices, (although I'm used to LA prices and Phoenix is generally more economical across the board.) We opted for the fixed menu dinner, which we usually do not do, and the selections were very good. The moo-shu pork was my favorite, although the rest of the dishes were also outstanding. There is a wonderful garlic chicken dish. They put a little hibachi on the table so we could cook our own little skewers of beef. We liked the very hearty soup. I did not notice any of the downside aspects noted in the other review. The outside is not much to look at, just a rather plain free-standing building, but the interior decor is right out of the 50's, like the old style Cantonese places back then. They play quiet Chinese music in the background, a nice touch that enhances the experience. Plenty of parking and a bar if you like that sort of thing. Thanks for a great evening, China Village !
UDATE: Dropped in again a few months later- just to see if the quality stayed up- and it was as good as before. They even recognized us from months earlier. We had the fixed menu dinner for six and they were very cooperative in making some changes based on our tastes. Thanks again.. China Village.
