Best Chinese food I've had in the valley so far! I've been reading reviews on Phx New Times and searching for good Chinese food. I'm so tired of the really greasy warmed over weird meat overly salty Chinese food I've had in the valley. Chou's had really good reviews so we went to the one in Tempe.
There were a lot of Chinese families eating there so I took that as a Good sign the food will be pretty darn delicious and authentic.
We were seated promptly and ordered the beef pies, pork xiao long bao, won ton noodle soup, and beef chow mein. The beef pies are to die for! Savory, juicy, piping hot, and crispy yet soft! Wow these were good!
The won ton noodle soup was really yummy. You can tell they used a bone broth in the soup which adds more flavor overall. The pork xiao long bao came out hot, I waited for it to cool down and took a bite of these little pieces of heaven. They had a wonderful little meatball inside with delicious juice that explodes with flavor in your mouth! I had 8 of them before I had to call it quits. There's 10 total.
The beef chow mein was also really great! The noodles were perfectly al dente, the perfect amount of oil and sauce, and so much flavor! I'm already craving more. Don't hesitate to eat here!
