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.

Awesome food and great prices. The food here is amazing and the service is exceptional. They have the best egg foo young I have ever eaten among other things.

Seriously awesome lunch deals for a huge amount of food! Lunch comes with soup, wonton, egg roll, fried rice and entree! For 5.50! And we had leftovers. They even customized my dish for 50 cents more. The staff is super friendly and the atmosphere is exactly what you would expect. We will be back very soon.
(4)Leah E.
Great chinese food. This restaurant is fast, without sacrificing quality. We are always well taken care of when we come in, or call for take out. We have had the emperors chicken, sesame chicken, orange chicken, and egg drop soup. All are winners!
(4)Ben R.
This is my favorite Chinese place in the Phx area. It is a dumpy building and by no means fancy (in any way). But the food is amazing.....especially the house lo mein, beef chow fun and salt/pepper shrimp. Absolutely love this place.
(5)Neko S.
I used to come here once every few weeks back in 2010, and loved the orange chicken lunch. Came back today after relocating from east valley, same recipe, same amazing taste. The eggdrop soup is a cure for hangovers and colds. Love that stuff! This is my favorite little spot. That staff is always friendly. It was nice to see some familiar faces from 2010. Definitely coming back.
(5)Kazi H.
all i have to stay is eww! This place makes Panda Express a 5 star place in comparison! By far the worst place I've had Chinese food. So so so bad. stay away! far far faaaaar away!!!
(1)Lisa B.
Great food & awesome service. Lunch specials are great bargains too, from $4.75 - $5.95They include entree, fried rice, won ton, egg roll & soup.
(5)Lacandice P.
They portion size was very little the food wasnt that good and the lady was kind of rude.
(1)Leslie H.
My favorite west side Chinese food their portions are huge and prices are cheap. We did take out today and I swear the portions are bigger! Each lunch special comes with white or fried rice, an egg roll, 2 won tons, and a cup of egg drop soup. If you order take out you don't get the soup . We added a quart of egg drop soup for $2 . Such a deal..
(5)Anthony T.
I've eaten here over the course of many years with my family. The staff treat us like family and make us feel welcome. This is the first place my grandparents would want to go to when eating Chinese food. The portions are big and the cost is reasonable. The food tastes very good.
(4)Laura K.
Awful! That's the only word I have to describe the food. My brother and I came in and both wanted lemon chicken. He ordered first and then me, they then suggested we not order the same entree? So I had to change my order. I ended up ordering the chicken broccoli dinner plate. When The food arrived, I saw why they suggested to change my order. They were out of the chicken. The lemon chicken looked like breaded chicken patties you get in the frozen food section that was cut up into squares. I've been here before with friends and the lemon chicken never looked/tasted this horrible. The food was not even hot, it was barely warm. My broccoli chicken was chewy. Never ending. It was cold as well. My brother was furious. I barely ate a small section and I always finish food. We boxed up our order and left.. I tried to get my brother to tip at least the minimum but he was so furious about the food that he signed his signature and left. I will never eat here again. We usually eat at Yan's on 91st Ave & Thomas but wanted to venture out. Big mistake. We are going back to our usual awesome little gem. Sorry Big Heng, you served us nasty scraps and you know it.
(1)Tony S.
This place so far is the best place in the area that I've found. Moved here 6 months ago and always on the look out for a good Chinese place. Will continue looking so if anyone has any suggestion... I will come back to this place. Great food and great service.
(4)Carlos L.
Been coming to Big Heng for over 10 years. Love it, usually get the orange chicken with fried rice.
(5)April H.
Wow this might be the friendliest restaurant I've ever experienced. Our waitress was so sweet. Our drinks never went empty, and we were checked on repeatedly. She even suggested what to order next time. I'm not a real big Chinese food fan so I really can't compare their food to other spots. We ordered the crab puffs which were tasty but I've had much better. Orange beef was pretty good but not spicy enough for my taste. It came with steamed or fried rice. I added a side of lo mein noodles because I was craving them. Those were really good. Hubby ordered shrimp lo mein and really enjoyed his meal. Serving sizes were really big and prices were reasonable in my opinion. We will definitely return. It's a diamond in the rough.
(5)Brittany D.
Been eating here for years! Love it! Cheap prices for big meals. Definitely recommend sweet and sour chicken or teriyaki chicken. Also the egg drop soup and egg rolls!
(4)Rusty B.
Service was great. Food was good for a low price. Will return.
(5)Dri N.
By far my favorite in Peoria AZ area. My family have coming here since 1992. Beef w/ broccoli, kung pao chicken, any fried rice, mangolian beef, skewed stick chicken, chow phun and garlic chicken are mouth watering good
(5)Alex S.
I have to admit, that, over the years, my love of Chinese food has waned. I'm just not used to eating such heavy food anymore and for the most part have replaced Chinese restaurants with Vietnamese and Thai (though there's no comparison between the latter and Chinese). However, after reading the reviews on here, which said this restaurant was the closest thing to the NYC version, I couldn't resist trying it. Having grown up on Long Island, I had my fair share of Chinese restaurants and I, too, think the best in the country are to be found there (and, to a lesser extent, San Francisco). The star of this place is the pu-pu platter. Hands down the best for a mere $9.90 for two people. Spare ribs with plenty of meat on them; large -- but albeit greasy -- egg rolls; skewered meats that in no way resemble most of the pu-pu platters in the Valley, where, if you're lucky, your skewered meat and ribs will resemble something some other customer ate 80% of the way through and was kept out of the garbage to be put into some poor schmuck's order the next day (and that's if you're LUCKY; don't ask what it'll look and taste like, if you aren't!). The hot n sour soup certainly doesn't skimp on meat and other additions to it. But while it was good, it didn't wow me. For the main dishes, we had Kung Pao Three and the Emperor Chicken. Both were a bit salty, but that was our fault: we don't use salt at home, so --- as you've read in my other reviews --- we should've remembered to say "no MSG or salt, please!" Other than that, big portions; big pieces of meat. Just be aware that, unlike kung pao dishes, the Emperor Chicken has NO vegetables in it (if that's important to you). Service was stellar and I had no problems leaving a 20% tip on the total (subtotal and tax combined). The server was friendly and gave lots of advice. In fact, I would describe her, too, as being typical New York: we can be very standoffish; but once we get to know someone or want to get to know someone, we can be very familiar and overly -- but genuinely -- friendly very quickly. The restaurant is very well lit, but not obnoxiously so. I don't know why -- no doubt some personal, buried memory -- but well-lit Chinese restaurants always remind me of the Christmas holidays, so it felt warm and comfortable to be in so well-lit a restaurant. Overall, while the food -- with the exception of the pu-pu platter -- didn't wow us, this place definitely ranks up there in the best of Chinese restaurants in the Valley. Well worth the drive from Goodyear and its "late" hours are an absolute godsend in a "city" where most restaurants close down by 8pm or 9pm, even on a Saturday!
(4)Kimberly S.
Best Chinese food I've found here... they accommodate special requests like brown sauce on my chicken and broccoli like they make on the east coast/midwest. Fried shrimp, crab puffs and egg so soup are YUMMY!!! Also love the sweet and sour chicken. .. crispy and all white meat.
(5)P A.
We didn't come in with high expectations for this Chinese Restaurant in Peoria. Not many pictures on Yelp and decent reviews so we figured, why not. Overall it was average. Everything tasted the way it should've but not of high quality (think fast food take out). The egg drop soup was bland and the egg roll was mostly vegetables. The only thing we almost finished was the fried rice on our combo plates. Don't drink the ice water unless you get a lemon or something because Arizona's finest was off today.
(3)John M.
This place by far is the closest to New York City Chiense food (and at a great price) you will find in Phoenix Metro area. My family Heritage is Jewish, and if you want to find great chinese food, look no further that a Jewish New Yorker we can smell good chinese a mile away. Big Heng's is what I call a hole in the wall. but they have hit it out of the park, the servers are really from china and are a hoot, and they do a great job even when they are super busy. Our hole family goes at least once a month and we sit at there largest table that has the built in lazy i orger 6 to 8 dishes and we eat family style. Our family favorite is their Pu Pu plater appitizer. My kids from a very young age all ways thought the name was funny, but they love the Pu Pu. Enjoy
(5)Brittany C.
My favorite Chinese place! Won't go anywhere else. :)
(5)Lynn D.
This place has been here for years, Im usually afraid to try new chinese places. Good size portions, lots of options, but food lacks flavor. The crab puffs should just be called cheese puffs no crab no flavor, sweet sour pork and teriyaki chicken same no flavor. One thing that was great was the service, the waitress was awesome. Dont think we'll be back
(2)Marina M.
Got our food to-go so I can't comment on the inside (I waited in the car) but man, my car smelt aaaaaaaamazing. Between the 4 of us, we had Moo Goo Gai Pan, Kung Pao Chicken, House Fried Rice & House Lo Mein. Hubby didn't care for his Kung Pao, there didn't seem to be much chicken in the dish. I loved the light taste of the Moo Goo, it's a nice change from normal fried greasy style chinese. Will be back soon!
(4)Tiffany M.
Just moved to Peoria. After reading the reviews gave this place a shot. I ordered emperor's chicken, garlic chicken, orange chicken, from the lunch menu, and bbq pork fried rice. The garlic chicken was not what I was expecting because it was sautéed with veggies in white sauce but it was still good. I really have no complaints. All was good and I will go back. Was it the best? Neh, but good enough to eat again. I will say far better than most places here in Az.Good portions. Friendly workers. Good prices. I'll go back.
(4)Alyssa A.
My family and I have been coming here for a very long time and I love this place!! The food is excellent! The service is great! You can't get better Chinese food anywhere else! I would recommend this place to anyone who enjoys chinese food and a great atmosphere!!
(5)Leonard C.
Doing business in the neighborhood. Found this gem on Yelp. Orange Chicken for lunch. Awesome. Staff friendly and courteous. Highly recommended them if you're craving good Chinese food.
(4)Nikki W.
First off, you get your money's worth at this place! The lunch specials come with a good serving of your entree, 2 big scoops of rice, an egg roll, and some fried wontons. The food itself was okay. The beef and broccoli had a lot of flavor, the Orange chicken was way too sweet, and the sweet & sour sauce was nothing special. I also had a cup of wonton soup that was very good! Overall, the food was just alright, but with prices this good and quick service, I will be back for lunch to try something new!
(3)Victoria L.
I love this place. It's the only Chinese food place we eat. The people are always nice and the food speaks for itself!
(5)Kevin L.
Absolutely the best, most authentic, Chinese food since we lived in Beijing. We frequesnt Big Heng so much that they started buying our favorite sodas (at the grocery store) to have cold & on hand for when we're there (about once a month)! THAT is Customer Service!! Egg Drop Soup, House Fried Rice and Lo Mein, Orange Chicken, Beef & Broccoil are A-Mazing!
(5)G C.
Been here a few times, always thought it was my hunger that made it seem so delicious but its not. Came here on a Saturday night and saw many people here. Service is fast, place is clean, the food is always delicious and the prices are just right. I love this place
(4)Samantha C.
I love this place. My family and I have been coming to Big Heng for Chinese food since we moved to Arizona 14 years ago. They have fast and friendly service and it is one of the best places for authentic Chinese food. Although I don't come as often as I used too, this is the only place we come for Chinese!
(5)Matthew S.
It had been a while since i last went to Big Heng and finally made my return this past weekend. I first experienced this place 4 years ago. Their lunches are insanely cheap and the lunch options are plenty. I like the teriyaki, and their veggie dishes like the Hunan chicken. I like to ask them to make it extra spicy everytime. I have also tried their orange chicken. Its pretty tasty and not your usual Panda Express orange chicken. It really seems like real oranges in that sauce. Lunch comes with soup, egg roll, two wontons w/ meat btw and fried rice (substitute soft noodles for $1). I gotta say though that they have the best Hot Chili Oil i have ever had in any chinese place, they really ferment it. Becareful with their spicy mustard, its has the wasabi effect if you know what i mean. Service was excellent as always, super kind and attentive. Big Heng is one of those comfort chinese food placess
(5)John F.
Good food! Fast to take out which I don't know if that's a good thing but oh well!
(5)Ramon O.
Definatly my new favorite Chinese place!!! Egg Drop Soup is yummy. I recommend the Seseme Beef!!! Very friendly staff and huge servings. You don't leave this place hungry!!!! Food taste very fresh and served fast and hot!!! Highly recomend!
(5)Brayam A.
Not a bad place for the looks of it, I'm impressed by the way the food tasted it wasn't bad. They did rush us but I didn't mind. Overall not a bad place!
(5)Kevin O.
Big Hengs is the underdog restaurant you can't help but love and look forward to coming back for more. Granted, as most others have mentioned, they place is anything but sexy. However who cares? The food quality and quantity is as good as it gets. The prices are so cheap I guarantee you'll do a double take. The staff is some of the nicest I've ever met, and the atmosphere is interesting to say the least. It only took my very first dining experience at Big Hengs to give them the crown! Everything is good, but my favorite is the Walnut Shrimp.
(5)Herbie H.
Good price, good food, good service. Crowded for both dine-in and take-out. Recommend this place.
(4)Aaron R.
I really dig this place. Just good affordable Chinese place close the my house. The lunch specials are great and priced not to be beat. Good soup and you get an egg till and a main course. Bring someone and order more to share because everything I've ever ordered is really good. My advice is try the orange chicken it's really really sweet and different from most places so you need to order something spicy too, to kind if compliment the sweet. Also you have to try the sweet n sour shrimp (sauce on the side) it's so good!! Definitely one of my local faves!
(5)Lexi A.
LOVE THEIR FOOD!!! Been going here for years and have never been disappointed. The lunch menu is the BEST DEAL ANYWHERE! You get lots of food for your money too!
(5)Maura M.
Been coming here for years. Never had a problem with the service. Its the best in my opinion. The pork lo main is awesome. Always get the sweet and sour pork too. Big portions at a great price. Don't hesitate to try. You won't be sorry.
(5)Tom H.
First off. This is no fancy gourmet Chinese food. This is Chinese fast food. Keeping that in mind, it is good. I find the Lo Mein there addicting. I'm not a huge Lo Mein fan, but the way they season their noodles, leaves us craving more. The service can be a little challenging with some employees due to the language barrier, but they are always attentive. I took my kids there last Friday night and we had our dinner out within 3-4 minutes of ordering. We had Sesame Chicken and Chicken Lo Mein, bother were great. We saw the staff sing happy birthday to a customer, first in English, then a Chinese song that I'm assuming is typically sung during birthdays. I hope they keep up the delicious food!
(5)Belle H.
Got the diablo chicken! Amazing. Was here for dinner and got a ton of food for less then $10. Crispy chip appetizer soup and egg roll came and a crab puff with my dinner. The crab puff had great flavor. The diablo chicken was spicy but not too spicy. These guys don't skimp on the food or the flavor.
(5)m p.
Great food, great service! We enjoyed Kung Pao, fried rice, lemon chicken amd egg drop soup!
(5)Laurie V.
A Favorite for Years!!! Their house lo mein is the best I have ever tasted. I have tried so many other places and this is by far the best! Even though it is a hole in the wall strip mall, it's clean, friendly and well worth the trip. Add some egg rolls and crab puffs YUM!!!
(5)Espy S.
This place is absolutely the BEST!! You will not encounter one thing I their many that is not good. Their teriyaki sauce is to die for. I mean everything is delicious! They are all so friendly, fast service and they make you feel right at home.
(5)MC O.
The food is good, but the fat Asian lady that looks like a man, was rude on the phone to take our pick up order. I didn't think anything of it other than they were probably just busy. When we went to pick our food up, she forgot to put our order in. She then said it would only take two minutes to cook. Yeah right. She wanted us to pay right away, I told her that we would pay when our food came. She rudely rolled her eyes, and seven minutes later, no food. Cancelled my order. China Grill up the road is just as good, if not better and they are much nicer! My co-workers have spread the word and we now go to China Grill.
(1)Kaitlyn C.
This is the WORST Chinese restaurant I've ever been to in my life!!! I've never had seasame chicken that was yellow/white yuck!! Also they wouldn't give me a To go box the lo main tasted like straight pull I will not be be going back and in fact I'd I had money for a lawyer I would sue them
(1)Lavon G.
O my gosh amazing food. Service awesome, huge portions very great prices!!! We will be back!!
(5)Dana S.
Amazing Chinese food at prices you can't find anywhere else. Service is amazing. This place is always busy and never had a bad experience. Highly recommend.
(5)Virginia J.
This place is a perfect example of "Never judge a book by its cover" On the outside it may look rundown and cheap, but once you walk inside, it's so beautiful its almost breath taking. The food is reasonably priced and the service is great. I have been going to this place for years, and no matter how far I move, I still try to make it ever few months.
(5)Stephanie C.
Came here for lunch to meet a friend. They have a good variety of lunch entrees. The food comes out fast and the prices are good for the amount of food you get. The only thing that I didn't like was how much MSG was in the food---I guess it's expected in a Chinese Restaurant, so I'll just have to make sure to ask for no MSG if I go again. The place is pretty authentic though, so if you are looking for a good Chinese food this is a good place to good. Personally, I just don't like a bunch of MSG in my food.
(3)Taric W.
You can either pay $8 at Panda Express for the same old BS, or you can go out of your way to a place like Big Heng and get a crab puff (and oh, their crab puffs are amazing), an egg roll (hell, all their appetizers are freaking good), chicken chow mein, fried shrimp, AND sweet and sour pork. All on one plate. I DARE you to finish a full meal here, because *I* can't, and I'm pretty good at eating. You will never hear me say Big Heng has the highest quality entrees, but you will hear me say it's good enough, and they give you so much, with a smile, that it's worth it every time. Seriously, just look at their menu and tell me you can't find something you like. Thank me later. PS-If you dine in, get the plum wine!
(4)Haley S.
I have been eating here since I first moved to Peoria (I was in 3rd grade... so the late 90s?) and it is STILL my favorite Chinese restaurant. Every time I get Chinese, I compare it to Big Heng and I have never found anything comparable. Some of my favorites: Teriyaki Chicken, Sesame Chicken, Garlic Chicken, Curry Chicken, Orange Chicken. The egg drop soup is the BEST. The PuPu Platter is so good (I love the beef skewers). They have the best egg rolls. Seriously the best. Crab puffs are amazing (they actually have crab in them, what a concept) and the best pork fried rice. I used to ditch 4th period (I went to PHS) every few weeks and go to Big Heng with my boyfriend. I have since moved away (first to Flagstaff, then Queen Creek and now living in Goodyear) and we still make the drive at least once a month to eat here. They do use MSG in their cooking, which is the ONLY reason I give them 4 stars instead of 5. The food is cheap, fast and it is always delicious. Lunch (served 11-3 I believe) is probably the best value (my SO and I can eat here during lunch for about $12) but dinner is great. The specials are more expensive at dinner, and limited, but you can sub the entrees for a fee.
(4)Barbara H.
First off, loved this place. It's kind of a hole in a strip mall place but when you walk in, it's clean and everyone is friendly. My friend said she's been going here for years and said it was consistently good. She even had her rehearsal dinner here. Here? I'm kind of a Chinese food snob and didn't expect to like it as much as she did. But I did. The egg drop soup was great-they put a bunch of fried wonton strips on top and sometimes there is bigger pieces of egg white and it is just really good. I had the Hunan chicken, they said it was spicy--and by gum! it was :) And delicious. We had the flat noodles instead of the rice and it soaked up the sauce from the chicken--so, so good. And plenty of veggies with the chicken. My only hesitation is with the egg rolls that were kind of...clunky-almost like they had been made ahead of time and then warmed up. But I'll be back and try all the other goodness they serve. Oh! And it's good inexpensive Chinese food--2 for lunch, tea (a dollar extra) and a bit extra for the noodles vs rice and we got out for $16. Yes, I will be back--and you should go! Trust me :)
(5)Tim M.
I haven't eaten here in quite a while so hopefully not much has changed, but this was my favorite place to get take out. The beef skewers, house fried rice, house low mein and several other dishes are simply amazing, especially when the outside looks very much like a hole in the wall. The only thing stopping me from eating here more often is the fact that it's so far away from my house. We always ordered a ton of food for pick up and were never disappointed. Hopefully I can make my way back soon because I haven't found any place that compares.
(5)Natalie K.
the best food. great service. i have tried alot of places they are the best. love this place. they cater all my parties. thank you
(5)Aura C.
Not a bad place to have lunch. It's pretty affordable like most real Chinese restaurants. I order the same thing at every Chinese restaurant...the Mongolian beef. I am on a mission to find the best Mongolian beef in PHX. This one was fine. Not much to the decor.
(3)Kathy L.
Found this place today by Googling "$5 lunch Peoria AZ"...and the Yelp link popped up. It was a bit out of my way, but I had the time today, so I thought, "what the heck! It got good reviews!" From the looks of the building and surrounding businesses, I was a bit leary, but most Yelpers gave this place 5 stars, so I had to give it a try. (that's why we "yelp" this stuff, right?" The place was much nicer inside than judging from the outside. It was pretty nice inside - not dark, dreary, or stinky! Quite the opposite! The place was bustling with activity; waitresses were busy serving and seating the lunch crowd. The place was hopping and continued to throughout my 30 minute lunch. After placing my order of Moo Goo Gui Pan, a bowl of egg-drop soup quickly arrived (it did not mention soup on the menu). It was just ok. It was simply broth and egg. No standard peas or carrots in my bowl. It had little to no taste, but a bit of Soy sauce fixed that. The thing I DID like about the soup, was that it came PIPPING hot, little fried wontons on top of it, and served with WARM sweet and sour sauce - and my favorite kind too! (I like the red, not the orange sauce). That was a nice bonus! My food was delivered very fast and again, PIPPING HOT. The serving size was nice and the presentation was nice too. Came with an egg-roll and one fried wonton. The flavor was VERY good...nice and garlic'ly! Extra points for FRESH mushrooms, too! The waitress never came back to check on me and no hot mustard was on any of the tables nor offered to me...tried to catch a waitress, but was unsuccessful. The food, ambiance, flavor, service was very good. I would recommend this place...and the price was $4.85!!! Since this place was a bit further than I like to drive at lunchtime, I will stick my my old fav, Shangri-La on 59th Ave. Much better soup and not in the 'hood. I'll gladly pay the extra buck. If you are in the neighborhood of Peoria Ave and 75th Ave....stop in any give this place a try.
(3)V S.
Been looking for some good Chinese food and I have to say this place is pretty good. We got the noodles and it was very fulfilling. The egg rolls are GREAT! I haven't had egg rolls that good in forever. And it's also affordable. Did not realize how cheap it was till I got the bill. Only thing I didn't care for was that it was busy and so it made it harder to get the waitress attention.
(4)Ali R.
Some of the best Chinese in the phx area I've had so far.
(5)Yuli M.
Service was ok and food wasn't any better. The Orange chicken was ok, however the egg drop soup and fried rice left a lot to be desired. Price is pretty good for a big lunch. I don't think I'll be returning.
(2)Kevin V.
Best Chinese food in the area by far. Super fast, super cheap, just as it should be. Called in my order for Hunan Beef, Orange Chicken (Asked them to make it spicy), and crab poofs. Was ready in 10 min and came in at $20. Can't go wrong
(4)Tyler H.
Amazing food and a very friendly staff. I would have to suggest there orange chicken or teriyaki chicken
(4)Pepper T.
Like Taric said, Big Heng is good enough. They give you more than you can eat for spending very little and it truthfully is better than the majority of Chinese around that I tried. We ordered two lunch specials and they start bringing us piping hot egg drop soup and as FAST AS CAN BE they bring out our lunch entrees. I thought the hunan chicken was better than the Szechwan Chicken. That Szechwan sauce was mild and flat to me and the vegetables were mostly celery and green peppers but the canned bamboo shouts in this dish bothered me because I kept tasting can. Like I already said the hunan chicken was better and I might have given four stars if this was the only dish I tried. The sauce was better, the vegetables in this dish were better, this dish did have heat to it. Both meals had a nice vegetable to meat ratio and both were piping hot and everything seemed fresh. Big Heng close to Tolmachhoff Farms so you might want to check them out if you stop by here. 3.5 stars
(3)Dione G.
This is my favorite place for Chinese food and they are really fast. The place is always clean and the staff is so friendly. I love all of the ladies there like family because they just treat us so good when we go. My favorite thing to get is the shrimp chop suey with brown sauce, pork fried rice and the dinner fried shrimp because the batter is so good. I don't think I have ever had a bad experience here and I like that. The food is awe some and the prices are great too. If I remember I will take some photos next time I go in.
(5)Aimee C.
Best Chinese good I've had. Fast and hot every time. Have tried just about everything on the menu and all of it's great. Little dive of a place that is so unassuming. Great place.

I wish I could give this place 2 1/2 stars. Pros: Excellent food & service. Cons: We were served expired beer, if they aren't rotating their product it makes you nervous about what else they aren't rotating back there. Like I said excellent service and food! I have never been sick after eating here but being served an expired beverage put a huge blemish on an other wise spotless record.

My boyfriend and I decided to give this place a try, since seeing Big heng has great reviews. But in all honesty we were nowhere near pleased, and it saddens me to say I will never go back. We ordered Pot stickers, House Lomein, cup of Hot sour soup, Kung Pao 3 with steamed rice. The Pot stickers are weirdly steamed then stir fried to add the black burn marks around em, quite chewy. My cup of hot sour soup came to me with chips already placed in it, which I found to be odd, and what surprised me more was when I decided to dig in, no pork, no piece of shrimp. Just tofu, juice, and chips. No sour, no spice. I like to eat my chips on the side so they do not get soggy but I didn't send the soup back. The House Lomein was dark, it had a salty burnt taste which upset my boyfriend, he just packed up the noodles didn't bother to take another bite. Now for the Kung Pao 3, that was the only entree we liked. It was a bit salty but I got pass that by drinking it down with a lovely Dr.pepper, which that was a plus. Other than that, I was not to pleased. I suppose this place is not for us.

My favorite place they know me by name and always have my order right on que!
(5)Nick V.
Super cheap and by far the best Chinese food in Peoria or Glendale. Sketchy-ish strip mall, but totally worth it. The salt and pepper shrimp or emperors Chicken are a couple of my favorites.
(5)Michelle D.
New to Phoenix from Pacific NW. Found Big Heng on Yelp. The food was pretty good and the portions were great. Had some misunderstandings and paid a little extra for things that normally come with a sit down Chinese meal - i.e., egg drop soup. Also had to ask repeatedly for mustard and sesame seeds, again, these are usually staples that just come with the meal where we are from. We had the kung pao chicken and a combination dinner (#3). The food arrived immediately which made me wonder about the freshness, but overall the food was good and we will go back.
(4)JEANNE C.
I love lots of vegatables. They made the chicken with vegetables but added curry sauce. Whoa, never had so many veggies in a one dish. Took 1/2 home for another meal. Loved it.
(4)Steve C.
Fast service and great takeout! The orange beef and walnut shrimp are fantastic.
(5)Eric L.
Big portions for the price and the food was really good. I had the sweet and sour pork and loved it.
(4)Courtney M.
I decided that we needed to try this place after reading Yelp reviews. Who doesn't love yummy, but cheap Chinese food? This place hit the spot! The food was really good, we had plenty of leftovers, the prices were stellar. This is probably the best Chinese food place we have found living out here so far, and we will be back.
(5)Bec M.
First time there, and we had good experience! We ordered for a large party and it was fresh and ready in less than 10 minutes, portions are enormous and very reasonably priced. I am a sucker for chicken fried rice and it was of the best I've ever had! I enjoyed the potstickers, very meaty. My husband got the orange chicken and he felt that the breading could have been crispier, but really enjoyed the flavor. My guess is that it was made fresh and put in to-go containers which may have caused it to steam and soften by the time we got home. I found that the hot and sour soup was oddly too smoky in flavor, but very rich. All in all I am very happy with this experience and can't wait to go back and try other dishes!
(4)Amber W.
I would highly recommend Big Heng! My husband and I have tried many of their dishes and we've never had a bad experience! It is by far the best we've found in the valley!
(5)Lucas R.
My family has come here for years and the staff has been there even longer. They all know us and know exactly what we like and how we like it. I am always willing to try new things. I let Winnie surprise me and she knows exactly what I'll like everytime. I always make sure to visit when I am in Phoenix. Can't wait to come back!
(5)Rosemary L.
Wow, how bad is bad! Had chicken chow mein, it was greasy, egg roll soggy, rice was bland, wonton was overcooked. I have searched for a good chinese restaurant have read reviews and still Im at a loss. Is there no such thing in this area at all. Drove quite a ways to try this one as I have many others, guess I will have to give chinese food up completely, just tired of being disappointed.
(1)Ann N.
Have not had a bad meal here yet. Dine in or carry out, Big Heng is the best Chinese food in AZ!
(5)Tamara Q.
After giving this place a couple more shots, I've found that the shrimp in lobster sauce (spicy as all hell) is good. Still not impressed though.
(2)Jessica N.
This place was fast, cheap, and had great-tasting food in HUGE proportions! I gave it 5 starts based on the food and the service. The decor left something to be desired, it was clean, but old and uninteresting. However, the price was so good, I overlooked it! We ordered the Crab Puffs Appetizer and Egg Rolls, Szechuan Beef, and Dinner Combo of S&S Pork and Lo Mein. They brought us Egg Drop soup on the house. The crab puffs were great! The beef could have been spicier, but I'll know to ask for it next time. If you're looking for great Chinese carry-out, or a quick dinner for two (or ten), this is your place!
(5)Gary P.
If you like Chinese cuisne and don't have a ton of money to spend, this is the place for you! The friendly staff keeps the drinks filled and the food is fresh and yummy, dispite the old, tired look of the place. Great lunch specials with egg roll! If you are thinking of fast food and want to spend $5 on lunch . . . be smart and give yourself a giant upgrade for the same cash, . . head to Big Heng
(4)Vinnie P.
Just an update: This restaurant is worth it. Some things just stand the test of time. Times change and the prices have gone up a tiny bit but the food here and the service STILL can't be beaten. Great Chinese food always ranks high in my book. Especially since "GOOD" Chinese food is so hard to find in this neck of the woods. Once again, after 11 years of living in Arizona, BIG HENG offers the best Chinese food around. Price, quality, quantity and service can't be beat!! I wish there was more than 5 stars here because they deserve more.
(5)Amanda B.
This was a major hang out during my high school years. I worked at the library up the road and went to school less than two miles away, so we'd find excuses to dart off to Big Heng. The family that owns the restaurant is wonderful and the staff has a very low turn-over rate; you'll always be greeted with familiar old faces. I have nothing but fond memories. The last few times I've stopped by, the food quality has deteriorated quite a bit. In the last couple of times I've gone by, though, I've spotted the sign that's thrown it all off for me: We Use Monosodium Glutamate.
(2)Patrick D.
The service here was good. There is nothing to complain about the food here; my wife is a bigger fan of it than I am. The portions were generous and the prices were about on par with any other chinese food place in Phoenix. I recall that there's only about four dinner combo meals which are a combination of some of the same things over and over. This is probably the only reason for me that I don't give it four stars (or go back more often). It doesn't look impressive inside or out, but that shouldn't stop you from checking it out.
(3)Bryan S.
This dive delivers! The best chinese food that I have had in the valley. Prices are ridiculously cheap, food is awesome and the staff treat you like family once they get to know you. I love this place.
(5)Janice M.
First time here and my daughter LOVED IT! Great service, great food nice atmosphere. Definitely will return anytime I am on that side of town.
(5)Joe W.
Best chinese place I have had in the valley I have been eating here for years. The waiters are very nice. They often know many of the customers by name. They always remember our drink order and food order. They are very quick on refills etc. The food portions are huge. Dont let the looks fool you. Yes it does look like a dump. Its been there like 20 years... give them a break :) Try it out
(5)Clyde L.
Our new hot spot for cheap, good Chinese lunch specials. Good portions of food all for about $5. Dinners are a few dollars more. Nice and clean and friendly / attentive .
(4)Sirena R.
My best friend and I love Big Heng. The staff knows our regular order, they are always fast and the prices are cheap. I recommend lunch over dinner since the prices are cheaper and portions still the same. I love the chicken teryaki and crab puffs are the best!
(4)Art C.
WOW.......nice hole in the wall Chinese place. I loved the food, waitresses are nice and courteous. There is one that is a flirt and funny.LOL Few things i love here are; Wor won ton soup, All i can say is wow. Besides this place i don't know what other place serves the Wor won ton soup. i was used to it in Cali. The house fried rice is the bomb, tasty very tasty. the wifey loved the the stuffed crab puffs. The house sweet and sour, very delicious!!! Beef broccoli, very tasty. Egg soup is exquisite. I'm planning to go back and try different dishes, but so far it has not disappointed me. One draw back but is worth it is its way in Peoria and I'm in east phx, LOL
(5)Sue G.
We have been ordering Big Heng food for years. Recently I gave up meat and consider myself a vegetarian. I have had the bean curd vegetarian dishes which I thought were very tasty until tonight. My husbad got the food. He ordered the bean curd dish and after eating through a little of it I noticed there were several pieces of chicken in it. So needless to say I won't order anymore from Big Heng. That is pretty careless.
(1)Grace R.
Great place to eat inexpensive Chinese food and the wait staff are very friendly!
(4)Tina K.
Best Chinese food I have found in this area. It is cheap, huge portions and really good! If you get take out and you tip them they give you a little extra something =) like a couple free egg rolls or crab puffs. So very good! Quick service to! My husband always gets the House Noodles or the Moo shew Pork he loves them! The sesame chicken and the emperor chicken is always good. I recommend!
(5)Eric W.
Great food at reasonable prices. Dinner combo's for two are a good deal!
(5)Jack N.
The food is truly a 3.5 but I rounded to 4 because of the service, portions, and value. I tried to order from Little Saigon several times and it just went to their voice mail. Finally someone picked up but the little bastard said Little Saigon was too busy to take to go orders at the time. So I went on yelp to find somewhere else in a pinch. I have seen this place before and the outside looks really suspect. I ordered beef and broccoli, chicken and vegetable stir fry, and some crab puffs. Picked it up in 15 minutes. The lady was extremely nice. She gave me some extra hot sauce. Then when I left a tip she seemed as though she was shocked. She said to wait right here and came back with a bag of two free egg rolls. I guess people don't tip often for take out. Anyhow, I told my wife I sure hope the food was good cause I loved that little older lady in there. Got home and it was pretty tasted. Everything was very hot, fresh, and had a pretty good flavor to it. The only thing I would have changed was a little spicier and a little less sauce but other than that it was great for pick up in a pinch. Best of all. They gave me enough food to feed a family of five and all for under 20 bucks!! Now that's what I'm talking about. Left over Chinese for lunch tomorrow.
(4)Theresa C.
Ugh...finally I always complain when I'm dragged to this place..too much gross food for such a lil price...people you must not be stuck in a lil world of big hen..venture out ..
(1)Josh F.
Great food and even better prices. I do not know of a better lunch special in town!
(5)Si Y.
been fan since 1999.. food is always great! and staff is always friendly.. except for this older lady.. she has her moments where she will be yelling at someone in the kitchen.. lol! same staff since i have known the place.. it might not be the fancy or most attractive looking Chinese restaurant, but you will get plenty of quality food that will satisfy your hunger.. try sesame chicken.. or honey glazed walnut shrimp.. mmm good!
(4)Joanna W.
Thanks Yelpers! Just moved into this neighborhood and decided to give Big Heng a try. The name alone is enough to get me to eat there, because really, who doesn't love a big heng? My kids devoured the sweet and sour pork. I like that they put the sauce on the side so the tempura pork is still crispy when you get it home. The egg drop soup was quite flavorful. I like the house fried rice - it's probably just soy sauce and rice really, but it sure did taste good. I've been in Phoenix for 6 years and this is only the second Chinese food experience I've had that made me say, "yes, I'd go there again." The only thing I didn't really like was that the snow peas in the shrimp with snow peas were a bit soggy. But I can live with that knowing that everything else was a hit with the whole family. And the Dinner for 4 served 5 easily with enough leftovers for lunch for 5.
(4)Anthony A.
Great food at really great prices! Two meals for around 20$. And they give you a great portion . Definitely more bang for you buck. Terrific service every time. I highly recommend it. I love it great spot in my favorite town! The Sweet and Sour Pork never disappoints . The atmosphere is always friendly.
(5)Becky S.
Been here a couple of times now and both times it was awesome. The first time I had the sesame chicken dinner and today I had the orange chicken dinner. The sesame chicken is excellent here. Most places I've had sesame chicken it just taste oily. Heng's sesame is very sweet, honey-flavored, with a bit of ginger - very pleasant. As is pretty normal for Chinese restaurants, the orange chicken isn't anywhere near spicy but you can have them spice it up more. Great crab puffs and fried rice here as well!
(5)Michael B.
Very good, even after it sitting out for an hour when I got home from work..... Will def order from there again!
(4)Shelly S.
I used to love this place and everyone I took with me loved it. Great food and service with reasonable prices. Something important to me was that they always rated very high with their health inspections. However, the last few years they've gone seriously downhill and consistently rate very low with their health inspections. I no longer eat here. I continue to check their health inspections as I hope they'll turn things around and once again be a very clean restaurant.
(1)Heather Y.
Soooooooo I used to go to this place was I was a small child and just went there for the first time in about....7-9 years last night. OMG YUM! I love love love their food. I ordered a dinner special (there's 4) and they give you sooooooo much food for $7-8. I got the sesame chicken, fried rice, chicken lo mein, crab puff, and egg roll plate. It also came with egg drop soup. I LOVE egg drop soup, but most places don't make it good. They made some of the best I've ever had. Next time I go, I am just ordering a big bowl of that. Anyway, I had to pay an extra $1.50 because I substituted the sesame chicken for the teryiaki chicken. No biggie, it was still a steal! My BF got the sweet and sour pork with fried shrimp and lo mein and fried rice. He loved it too. He said their hot mustard was the hottest he's ever had.......and then ran a train on it :o) Only thing I didn't like was the bathroom. But hey, who rates a restaurant on that?? It just stunk and was also used as a storage closet. Anyway, if you're out this way, stop in. You'll get amazing food for an unbelievably low price. No wonder they've been in business for 15-20 years.
(4)Luke S.
This place has the best beef and fried rice in the valley, and the second best in the country. It seems to be family owned and operated, with familiar, courteous staff. Dine-in or take some for the road!! Now i'm hungry....
(5)J R.
The only place I go to for sweet and sour chicken. Its the best!
(5)Iris B.
Awesome food and great prices. The food here is amazing and the service is exceptional. They have the best egg foo young I have ever eaten among other things.
(5)Briana K.
Seriously awesome lunch deals for a huge amount of food! Lunch comes with soup, wonton, egg roll, fried rice and entree! For 5.50! And we had leftovers. They even customized my dish for 50 cents more. The staff is super friendly and the atmosphere is exactly what you would expect. We will be back very soon.
(4)Leah E.
Great chinese food. This restaurant is fast, without sacrificing quality. We are always well taken care of when we come in, or call for take out. We have had the emperors chicken, sesame chicken, orange chicken, and egg drop soup. All are winners!
(4)Neko S.
I used to come here once every few weeks back in 2010, and loved the orange chicken lunch. Came back today after relocating from east valley, same recipe, same amazing taste. The eggdrop soup is a cure for hangovers and colds. Love that stuff! This is my favorite little spot. That staff is always friendly. It was nice to see some familiar faces from 2010. Definitely coming back.
(5)Ben R.
This is my favorite Chinese place in the Phx area. It is a dumpy building and by no means fancy (in any way). But the food is amazing.....especially the house lo mein, beef chow fun and salt/pepper shrimp. Absolutely love this place.
(5)Kazi H.
all i have to stay is eww! This place makes Panda Express a 5 star place in comparison! By far the worst place I've had Chinese food. So so so bad. stay away! far far faaaaar away!!!
(1)Lisa B.
Great food & awesome service. Lunch specials are great bargains too, from $4.75 - $5.95They include entree, fried rice, won ton, egg roll & soup.
(5)Lacandice P.
They portion size was very little the food wasnt that good and the lady was kind of rude.
(1)Leslie H.
My favorite west side Chinese food their portions are huge and prices are cheap. We did take out today and I swear the portions are bigger! Each lunch special comes with white or fried rice, an egg roll, 2 won tons, and a cup of egg drop soup. If you order take out you don't get the soup . We added a quart of egg drop soup for $2 . Such a deal..
(5)Anthony T.
I've eaten here over the course of many years with my family. The staff treat us like family and make us feel welcome. This is the first place my grandparents would want to go to when eating Chinese food. The portions are big and the cost is reasonable. The food tastes very good.
(4)Laura K.
Awful! That's the only word I have to describe the food. My brother and I came in and both wanted lemon chicken. He ordered first and then me, they then suggested we not order the same entree? So I had to change my order. I ended up ordering the chicken broccoli dinner plate. When The food arrived, I saw why they suggested to change my order. They were out of the chicken. The lemon chicken looked like breaded chicken patties you get in the frozen food section that was cut up into squares. I've been here before with friends and the lemon chicken never looked/tasted this horrible. The food was not even hot, it was barely warm. My broccoli chicken was chewy. Never ending. It was cold as well. My brother was furious. I barely ate a small section and I always finish food. We boxed up our order and left.. I tried to get my brother to tip at least the minimum but he was so furious about the food that he signed his signature and left. I will never eat here again. We usually eat at Yan's on 91st Ave & Thomas but wanted to venture out. Big mistake. We are going back to our usual awesome little gem. Sorry Big Heng, you served us nasty scraps and you know it.
(1)Tony S.
This place so far is the best place in the area that I've found. Moved here 6 months ago and always on the look out for a good Chinese place. Will continue looking so if anyone has any suggestion... I will come back to this place. Great food and great service.
(4)Carlos L.
Been coming to Big Heng for over 10 years. Love it, usually get the orange chicken with fried rice.
(5)April H.
Wow this might be the friendliest restaurant I've ever experienced. Our waitress was so sweet. Our drinks never went empty, and we were checked on repeatedly. She even suggested what to order next time. I'm not a real big Chinese food fan so I really can't compare their food to other spots. We ordered the crab puffs which were tasty but I've had much better. Orange beef was pretty good but not spicy enough for my taste. It came with steamed or fried rice. I added a side of lo mein noodles because I was craving them. Those were really good. Hubby ordered shrimp lo mein and really enjoyed his meal. Serving sizes were really big and prices were reasonable in my opinion. We will definitely return. It's a diamond in the rough.
(5)Brittany D.
Been eating here for years! Love it! Cheap prices for big meals. Definitely recommend sweet and sour chicken or teriyaki chicken. Also the egg drop soup and egg rolls!
(4)Alex S.
I have to admit, that, over the years, my love of Chinese food has waned. I'm just not used to eating such heavy food anymore and for the most part have replaced Chinese restaurants with Vietnamese and Thai (though there's no comparison between the latter and Chinese). However, after reading the reviews on here, which said this restaurant was the closest thing to the NYC version, I couldn't resist trying it. Having grown up on Long Island, I had my fair share of Chinese restaurants and I, too, think the best in the country are to be found there (and, to a lesser extent, San Francisco). The star of this place is the pu-pu platter. Hands down the best for a mere $9.90 for two people. Spare ribs with plenty of meat on them; large -- but albeit greasy -- egg rolls; skewered meats that in no way resemble most of the pu-pu platters in the Valley, where, if you're lucky, your skewered meat and ribs will resemble something some other customer ate 80% of the way through and was kept out of the garbage to be put into some poor schmuck's order the next day (and that's if you're LUCKY; don't ask what it'll look and taste like, if you aren't!). The hot n sour soup certainly doesn't skimp on meat and other additions to it. But while it was good, it didn't wow me. For the main dishes, we had Kung Pao Three and the Emperor Chicken. Both were a bit salty, but that was our fault: we don't use salt at home, so --- as you've read in my other reviews --- we should've remembered to say "no MSG or salt, please!" Other than that, big portions; big pieces of meat. Just be aware that, unlike kung pao dishes, the Emperor Chicken has NO vegetables in it (if that's important to you). Service was stellar and I had no problems leaving a 20% tip on the total (subtotal and tax combined). The server was friendly and gave lots of advice. In fact, I would describe her, too, as being typical New York: we can be very standoffish; but once we get to know someone or want to get to know someone, we can be very familiar and overly -- but genuinely -- friendly very quickly. The restaurant is very well lit, but not obnoxiously so. I don't know why -- no doubt some personal, buried memory -- but well-lit Chinese restaurants always remind me of the Christmas holidays, so it felt warm and comfortable to be in so well-lit a restaurant. Overall, while the food -- with the exception of the pu-pu platter -- didn't wow us, this place definitely ranks up there in the best of Chinese restaurants in the Valley. Well worth the drive from Goodyear and its "late" hours are an absolute godsend in a "city" where most restaurants close down by 8pm or 9pm, even on a Saturday!
(4)Kimberly S.
Best Chinese food I've found here... they accommodate special requests like brown sauce on my chicken and broccoli like they make on the east coast/midwest. Fried shrimp, crab puffs and egg so soup are YUMMY!!! Also love the sweet and sour chicken. .. crispy and all white meat.
(5)P A.
We didn't come in with high expectations for this Chinese Restaurant in Peoria. Not many pictures on Yelp and decent reviews so we figured, why not. Overall it was average. Everything tasted the way it should've but not of high quality (think fast food take out). The egg drop soup was bland and the egg roll was mostly vegetables. The only thing we almost finished was the fried rice on our combo plates. Don't drink the ice water unless you get a lemon or something because Arizona's finest was off today.
(3)Krysta J.
My favorite place they know me by name and always have my order right on que!
(5)John M.
This place by far is the closest to New York City Chiense food (and at a great price) you will find in Phoenix Metro area. My family Heritage is Jewish, and if you want to find great chinese food, look no further that a Jewish New Yorker we can smell good chinese a mile away. Big Heng's is what I call a hole in the wall. but they have hit it out of the park, the servers are really from china and are a hoot, and they do a great job even when they are super busy. Our hole family goes at least once a month and we sit at there largest table that has the built in lazy i orger 6 to 8 dishes and we eat family style. Our family favorite is their Pu Pu plater appitizer. My kids from a very young age all ways thought the name was funny, but they love the Pu Pu. Enjoy
(5)Dri N.
By far my favorite in Peoria AZ area. My family have coming here since 1992. Beef w/ broccoli, kung pao chicken, any fried rice, mangolian beef, skewed stick chicken, chow phun and garlic chicken are mouth watering good
(5)Brittany C.
My favorite Chinese place! Won't go anywhere else. :)
(5)Lynn D.
This place has been here for years, Im usually afraid to try new chinese places. Good size portions, lots of options, but food lacks flavor. The crab puffs should just be called cheese puffs no crab no flavor, sweet sour pork and teriyaki chicken same no flavor. One thing that was great was the service, the waitress was awesome. Dont think we'll be back
(2)Marina M.
Got our food to-go so I can't comment on the inside (I waited in the car) but man, my car smelt aaaaaaaamazing. Between the 4 of us, we had Moo Goo Gai Pan, Kung Pao Chicken, House Fried Rice & House Lo Mein. Hubby didn't care for his Kung Pao, there didn't seem to be much chicken in the dish. I loved the light taste of the Moo Goo, it's a nice change from normal fried greasy style chinese. Will be back soon!
(4)Tiffany M.
Just moved to Peoria. After reading the reviews gave this place a shot. I ordered emperor's chicken, garlic chicken, orange chicken, from the lunch menu, and bbq pork fried rice. The garlic chicken was not what I was expecting because it was sautéed with veggies in white sauce but it was still good. I really have no complaints. All was good and I will go back. Was it the best? Neh, but good enough to eat again. I will say far better than most places here in Az.Good portions. Friendly workers. Good prices. I'll go back.
(4)Alyssa A.
My family and I have been coming here for a very long time and I love this place!! The food is excellent! The service is great! You can't get better Chinese food anywhere else! I would recommend this place to anyone who enjoys chinese food and a great atmosphere!!
(5)Nikki W.
First off, you get your money's worth at this place! The lunch specials come with a good serving of your entree, 2 big scoops of rice, an egg roll, and some fried wontons. The food itself was okay. The beef and broccoli had a lot of flavor, the Orange chicken was way too sweet, and the sweet & sour sauce was nothing special. I also had a cup of wonton soup that was very good! Overall, the food was just alright, but with prices this good and quick service, I will be back for lunch to try something new!
(3)Leonard C.
Doing business in the neighborhood. Found this gem on Yelp. Orange Chicken for lunch. Awesome. Staff friendly and courteous. Highly recommended them if you're craving good Chinese food.
(4)Victoria L.
I love this place. It's the only Chinese food place we eat. The people are always nice and the food speaks for itself!
(5)Kevin L.
Absolutely the best, most authentic, Chinese food since we lived in Beijing. We frequesnt Big Heng so much that they started buying our favorite sodas (at the grocery store) to have cold & on hand for when we're there (about once a month)! THAT is Customer Service!! Egg Drop Soup, House Fried Rice and Lo Mein, Orange Chicken, Beef & Broccoil are A-Mazing!
(5)G C.
Been here a few times, always thought it was my hunger that made it seem so delicious but its not. Came here on a Saturday night and saw many people here. Service is fast, place is clean, the food is always delicious and the prices are just right. I love this place
(4)Samantha C.
I love this place. My family and I have been coming to Big Heng for Chinese food since we moved to Arizona 14 years ago. They have fast and friendly service and it is one of the best places for authentic Chinese food. Although I don't come as often as I used too, this is the only place we come for Chinese!
(5)Matthew S.
It had been a while since i last went to Big Heng and finally made my return this past weekend. I first experienced this place 4 years ago. Their lunches are insanely cheap and the lunch options are plenty. I like the teriyaki, and their veggie dishes like the Hunan chicken. I like to ask them to make it extra spicy everytime. I have also tried their orange chicken. Its pretty tasty and not your usual Panda Express orange chicken. It really seems like real oranges in that sauce. Lunch comes with soup, egg roll, two wontons w/ meat btw and fried rice (substitute soft noodles for $1). I gotta say though that they have the best Hot Chili Oil i have ever had in any chinese place, they really ferment it. Becareful with their spicy mustard, its has the wasabi effect if you know what i mean. Service was excellent as always, super kind and attentive. Big Heng is one of those comfort chinese food placess
(5)John F.
Good food! Fast to take out which I don't know if that's a good thing but oh well!
(5)Ramon O.
Definatly my new favorite Chinese place!!! Egg Drop Soup is yummy. I recommend the Seseme Beef!!! Very friendly staff and huge servings. You don't leave this place hungry!!!! Food taste very fresh and served fast and hot!!! Highly recomend!
(5)Brayam A.
Not a bad place for the looks of it, I'm impressed by the way the food tasted it wasn't bad. They did rush us but I didn't mind. Overall not a bad place!
(5)Kevin O.
Big Hengs is the underdog restaurant you can't help but love and look forward to coming back for more. Granted, as most others have mentioned, they place is anything but sexy. However who cares? The food quality and quantity is as good as it gets. The prices are so cheap I guarantee you'll do a double take. The staff is some of the nicest I've ever met, and the atmosphere is interesting to say the least. It only took my very first dining experience at Big Hengs to give them the crown! Everything is good, but my favorite is the Walnut Shrimp.
(5)Herbie H.
Good price, good food, good service. Crowded for both dine-in and take-out. Recommend this place.

I really dig this place. Just good affordable Chinese place close the my house. The lunch specials are great and priced not to be beat. Good soup and you get an egg till and a main course. Bring someone and order more to share because everything I've ever ordered is really good. My advice is try the orange chicken it's really really sweet and different from most places so you need to order something spicy too, to kind if compliment the sweet. Also you have to try the sweet n sour shrimp (sauce on the side) it's so good!! Definitely one of my local faves!

LOVE THEIR FOOD!!! Been going here for years and have never been disappointed. The lunch menu is the BEST DEAL ANYWHERE! You get lots of food for your money too!
(5)Maura M.
Been coming here for years. Never had a problem with the service. Its the best in my opinion. The pork lo main is awesome. Always get the sweet and sour pork too. Big portions at a great price. Don't hesitate to try. You won't be sorry.

First off. This is no fancy gourmet Chinese food. This is Chinese fast food. Keeping that in mind, it is good. I find the Lo Mein there addicting. I'm not a huge Lo Mein fan, but the way they season their noodles, leaves us craving more. The service can be a little challenging with some employees due to the language barrier, but they are always attentive. I took my kids there last Friday night and we had our dinner out within 3-4 minutes of ordering. We had Sesame Chicken and Chicken Lo Mein, bother were great. We saw the staff sing happy birthday to a customer, first in English, then a Chinese song that I'm assuming is typically sung during birthdays. I hope they keep up the delicious food!

Got the diablo chicken! Amazing. Was here for dinner and got a ton of food for less then $10. Crispy chip appetizer soup and egg roll came and a crab puff with my dinner. The crab puff had great flavor. The diablo chicken was spicy but not too spicy. These guys don't skimp on the food or the flavor.

Great food, great service! We enjoyed Kung Pao, fried rice, lemon chicken amd egg drop soup!
(5)Laurie V.
A Favorite for Years!!! Their house lo mein is the best I have ever tasted. I have tried so many other places and this is by far the best! Even though it is a hole in the wall strip mall, it's clean, friendly and well worth the trip. Add some egg rolls and crab puffs YUM!!!
(5)Espy S.
This place is absolutely the BEST!! You will not encounter one thing I their many that is not good. Their teriyaki sauce is to die for. I mean everything is delicious! They are all so friendly, fast service and they make you feel right at home.
(5)MC O.
The food is good, but the fat Asian lady that looks like a man, was rude on the phone to take our pick up order. I didn't think anything of it other than they were probably just busy. When we went to pick our food up, she forgot to put our order in. She then said it would only take two minutes to cook. Yeah right. She wanted us to pay right away, I told her that we would pay when our food came. She rudely rolled her eyes, and seven minutes later, no food. Cancelled my order. China Grill up the road is just as good, if not better and they are much nicer! My co-workers have spread the word and we now go to China Grill.

This is the WORST Chinese restaurant I've ever been to in my life!!! I've never had seasame chicken that was yellow/white yuck!! Also they wouldn't give me a To go box the lo main tasted like straight pull I will not be be going back and in fact I'd I had money for a lawyer I would sue them
(1)Lavon G.
O my gosh amazing food. Service awesome, huge portions very great prices!!! We will be back!!
(5)Dana S.
Amazing Chinese food at prices you can't find anywhere else. Service is amazing. This place is always busy and never had a bad experience. Highly recommend.
(5)Virginia J.
This place is a perfect example of "Never judge a book by its cover" On the outside it may look rundown and cheap, but once you walk inside, it's so beautiful its almost breath taking. The food is reasonably priced and the service is great. I have been going to this place for years, and no matter how far I move, I still try to make it ever few months.
(5)Stephanie C.
Came here for lunch to meet a friend. They have a good variety of lunch entrees. The food comes out fast and the prices are good for the amount of food you get. The only thing that I didn't like was how much MSG was in the food---I guess it's expected in a Chinese Restaurant, so I'll just have to make sure to ask for no MSG if I go again. The place is pretty authentic though, so if you are looking for a good Chinese food this is a good place to good. Personally, I just don't like a bunch of MSG in my food.
(3)Taric W.
You can either pay $8 at Panda Express for the same old BS, or you can go out of your way to a place like Big Heng and get a crab puff (and oh, their crab puffs are amazing), an egg roll (hell, all their appetizers are freaking good), chicken chow mein, fried shrimp, AND sweet and sour pork. All on one plate. I DARE you to finish a full meal here, because *I* can't, and I'm pretty good at eating. You will never hear me say Big Heng has the highest quality entrees, but you will hear me say it's good enough, and they give you so much, with a smile, that it's worth it every time. Seriously, just look at their menu and tell me you can't find something you like. Thank me later. PS-If you dine in, get the plum wine!
(4)Haley S.
I have been eating here since I first moved to Peoria (I was in 3rd grade... so the late 90s?) and it is STILL my favorite Chinese restaurant. Every time I get Chinese, I compare it to Big Heng and I have never found anything comparable. Some of my favorites: Teriyaki Chicken, Sesame Chicken, Garlic Chicken, Curry Chicken, Orange Chicken. The egg drop soup is the BEST. The PuPu Platter is so good (I love the beef skewers). They have the best egg rolls. Seriously the best. Crab puffs are amazing (they actually have crab in them, what a concept) and the best pork fried rice. I used to ditch 4th period (I went to PHS) every few weeks and go to Big Heng with my boyfriend. I have since moved away (first to Flagstaff, then Queen Creek and now living in Goodyear) and we still make the drive at least once a month to eat here. They do use MSG in their cooking, which is the ONLY reason I give them 4 stars instead of 5. The food is cheap, fast and it is always delicious. Lunch (served 11-3 I believe) is probably the best value (my SO and I can eat here during lunch for about $12) but dinner is great. The specials are more expensive at dinner, and limited, but you can sub the entrees for a fee.

First off, loved this place. It's kind of a hole in a strip mall place but when you walk in, it's clean and everyone is friendly. My friend said she's been going here for years and said it was consistently good. She even had her rehearsal dinner here. Here? I'm kind of a Chinese food snob and didn't expect to like it as much as she did. But I did. The egg drop soup was great-they put a bunch of fried wonton strips on top and sometimes there is bigger pieces of egg white and it is just really good. I had the Hunan chicken, they said it was spicy--and by gum! it was :) And delicious. We had the flat noodles instead of the rice and it soaked up the sauce from the chicken--so, so good. And plenty of veggies with the chicken. My only hesitation is with the egg rolls that were kind of...clunky-almost like they had been made ahead of time and then warmed up. But I'll be back and try all the other goodness they serve. Oh! And it's good inexpensive Chinese food--2 for lunch, tea (a dollar extra) and a bit extra for the noodles vs rice and we got out for $16. Yes, I will be back--and you should go! Trust me :)
(5)Tim M.
I haven't eaten here in quite a while so hopefully not much has changed, but this was my favorite place to get take out. The beef skewers, house fried rice, house low mein and several other dishes are simply amazing, especially when the outside looks very much like a hole in the wall. The only thing stopping me from eating here more often is the fact that it's so far away from my house. We always ordered a ton of food for pick up and were never disappointed. Hopefully I can make my way back soon because I haven't found any place that compares.
(5)Natalie K.
the best food. great service. i have tried alot of places they are the best. love this place. they cater all my parties. thank you
(5)Aura C.
Not a bad place to have lunch. It's pretty affordable like most real Chinese restaurants. I order the same thing at every Chinese restaurant...the Mongolian beef. I am on a mission to find the best Mongolian beef in PHX. This one was fine. Not much to the decor.
(3)Kathy L.
Found this place today by Googling "$5 lunch Peoria AZ"...and the Yelp link popped up. It was a bit out of my way, but I had the time today, so I thought, "what the heck! It got good reviews!" From the looks of the building and surrounding businesses, I was a bit leary, but most Yelpers gave this place 5 stars, so I had to give it a try. (that's why we "yelp" this stuff, right?" The place was much nicer inside than judging from the outside. It was pretty nice inside - not dark, dreary, or stinky! Quite the opposite! The place was bustling with activity; waitresses were busy serving and seating the lunch crowd. The place was hopping and continued to throughout my 30 minute lunch. After placing my order of Moo Goo Gui Pan, a bowl of egg-drop soup quickly arrived (it did not mention soup on the menu). It was just ok. It was simply broth and egg. No standard peas or carrots in my bowl. It had little to no taste, but a bit of Soy sauce fixed that. The thing I DID like about the soup, was that it came PIPPING hot, little fried wontons on top of it, and served with WARM sweet and sour sauce - and my favorite kind too! (I like the red, not the orange sauce). That was a nice bonus! My food was delivered very fast and again, PIPPING HOT. The serving size was nice and the presentation was nice too. Came with an egg-roll and one fried wonton. The flavor was VERY good...nice and garlic'ly! Extra points for FRESH mushrooms, too! The waitress never came back to check on me and no hot mustard was on any of the tables nor offered to me...tried to catch a waitress, but was unsuccessful. The food, ambiance, flavor, service was very good. I would recommend this place...and the price was $4.85!!! Since this place was a bit further than I like to drive at lunchtime, I will stick my my old fav, Shangri-La on 59th Ave. Much better soup and not in the 'hood. I'll gladly pay the extra buck. If you are in the neighborhood of Peoria Ave and 75th Ave....stop in any give this place a try.
(3)V S.
Been looking for some good Chinese food and I have to say this place is pretty good. We got the noodles and it was very fulfilling. The egg rolls are GREAT! I haven't had egg rolls that good in forever. And it's also affordable. Did not realize how cheap it was till I got the bill. Only thing I didn't care for was that it was busy and so it made it harder to get the waitress attention.
(4)Ali R.
Some of the best Chinese in the phx area I've had so far.
(5)Yuli M.
Service was ok and food wasn't any better. The Orange chicken was ok, however the egg drop soup and fried rice left a lot to be desired. Price is pretty good for a big lunch. I don't think I'll be returning.
(2)Kevin V.
Best Chinese food in the area by far. Super fast, super cheap, just as it should be. Called in my order for Hunan Beef, Orange Chicken (Asked them to make it spicy), and crab poofs. Was ready in 10 min and came in at $20. Can't go wrong
(4)Pepper T.
Like Taric said, Big Heng is good enough. They give you more than you can eat for spending very little and it truthfully is better than the majority of Chinese around that I tried. We ordered two lunch specials and they start bringing us piping hot egg drop soup and as FAST AS CAN BE they bring out our lunch entrees. I thought the hunan chicken was better than the Szechwan Chicken. That Szechwan sauce was mild and flat to me and the vegetables were mostly celery and green peppers but the canned bamboo shouts in this dish bothered me because I kept tasting can. Like I already said the hunan chicken was better and I might have given four stars if this was the only dish I tried. The sauce was better, the vegetables in this dish were better, this dish did have heat to it. Both meals had a nice vegetable to meat ratio and both were piping hot and everything seemed fresh. Big Heng close to Tolmachhoff Farms so you might want to check them out if you stop by here. 3.5 stars
(3)Tyler H.
Amazing food and a very friendly staff. I would have to suggest there orange chicken or teriyaki chicken
(4)Dione G.
This is my favorite place for Chinese food and they are really fast. The place is always clean and the staff is so friendly. I love all of the ladies there like family because they just treat us so good when we go. My favorite thing to get is the shrimp chop suey with brown sauce, pork fried rice and the dinner fried shrimp because the batter is so good. I don't think I have ever had a bad experience here and I like that. The food is awe some and the prices are great too. If I remember I will take some photos next time I go in.
(5)Aimee C.
Best Chinese good I've had. Fast and hot every time. Have tried just about everything on the menu and all of it's great. Little dive of a place that is so unassuming. Great place.
(5)Sandi B.
I wish I could give this place 2 1/2 stars. Pros: Excellent food & service. Cons: We were served expired beer, if they aren't rotating their product it makes you nervous about what else they aren't rotating back there. Like I said excellent service and food! I have never been sick after eating here but being served an expired beverage put a huge blemish on an other wise spotless record.
(3)Flores J.
My boyfriend and I decided to give this place a try, since seeing Big heng has great reviews. But in all honesty we were nowhere near pleased, and it saddens me to say I will never go back. We ordered Pot stickers, House Lomein, cup of Hot sour soup, Kung Pao 3 with steamed rice. The Pot stickers are weirdly steamed then stir fried to add the black burn marks around em, quite chewy. My cup of hot sour soup came to me with chips already placed in it, which I found to be odd, and what surprised me more was when I decided to dig in, no pork, no piece of shrimp. Just tofu, juice, and chips. No sour, no spice. I like to eat my chips on the side so they do not get soggy but I didn't send the soup back. The House Lomein was dark, it had a salty burnt taste which upset my boyfriend, he just packed up the noodles didn't bother to take another bite. Now for the Kung Pao 3, that was the only entree we liked. It was a bit salty but I got pass that by drinking it down with a lovely Dr.pepper, which that was a plus. Other than that, I was not to pleased. I suppose this place is not for us.
(1)Nick V.
Super cheap and by far the best Chinese food in Peoria or Glendale. Sketchy-ish strip mall, but totally worth it. The salt and pepper shrimp or emperors Chicken are a couple of my favorites.
(5)Michelle D.
New to Phoenix from Pacific NW. Found Big Heng on Yelp. The food was pretty good and the portions were great. Had some misunderstandings and paid a little extra for things that normally come with a sit down Chinese meal - i.e., egg drop soup. Also had to ask repeatedly for mustard and sesame seeds, again, these are usually staples that just come with the meal where we are from. We had the kung pao chicken and a combination dinner (#3). The food arrived immediately which made me wonder about the freshness, but overall the food was good and we will go back.
(4)JEANNE C.
I love lots of vegatables. They made the chicken with vegetables but added curry sauce. Whoa, never had so many veggies in a one dish. Took 1/2 home for another meal. Loved it.
(4)Steve C.
Fast service and great takeout! The orange beef and walnut shrimp are fantastic.
(5)Eric L.
Big portions for the price and the food was really good. I had the sweet and sour pork and loved it.
(4)Courtney M.
I decided that we needed to try this place after reading Yelp reviews. Who doesn't love yummy, but cheap Chinese food? This place hit the spot! The food was really good, we had plenty of leftovers, the prices were stellar. This is probably the best Chinese food place we have found living out here so far, and we will be back.
(5)Bec M.
First time there, and we had good experience! We ordered for a large party and it was fresh and ready in less than 10 minutes, portions are enormous and very reasonably priced. I am a sucker for chicken fried rice and it was of the best I've ever had! I enjoyed the potstickers, very meaty. My husband got the orange chicken and he felt that the breading could have been crispier, but really enjoyed the flavor. My guess is that it was made fresh and put in to-go containers which may have caused it to steam and soften by the time we got home. I found that the hot and sour soup was oddly too smoky in flavor, but very rich. All in all I am very happy with this experience and can't wait to go back and try other dishes!
(4)Amber W.
I would highly recommend Big Heng! My husband and I have tried many of their dishes and we've never had a bad experience! It is by far the best we've found in the valley!
(5)Lucas R.
My family has come here for years and the staff has been there even longer. They all know us and know exactly what we like and how we like it. I am always willing to try new things. I let Winnie surprise me and she knows exactly what I'll like everytime. I always make sure to visit when I am in Phoenix. Can't wait to come back!
(5)Rosemary L.
Wow, how bad is bad! Had chicken chow mein, it was greasy, egg roll soggy, rice was bland, wonton was overcooked. I have searched for a good chinese restaurant have read reviews and still Im at a loss. Is there no such thing in this area at all. Drove quite a ways to try this one as I have many others, guess I will have to give chinese food up completely, just tired of being disappointed.
(1)Ann N.
Have not had a bad meal here yet. Dine in or carry out, Big Heng is the best Chinese food in AZ!
(5)Tamara Q.
After giving this place a couple more shots, I've found that the shrimp in lobster sauce (spicy as all hell) is good. Still not impressed though.
(2)Jessica N.
This place was fast, cheap, and had great-tasting food in HUGE proportions! I gave it 5 starts based on the food and the service. The decor left something to be desired, it was clean, but old and uninteresting. However, the price was so good, I overlooked it! We ordered the Crab Puffs Appetizer and Egg Rolls, Szechuan Beef, and Dinner Combo of S&S Pork and Lo Mein. They brought us Egg Drop soup on the house. The crab puffs were great! The beef could have been spicier, but I'll know to ask for it next time. If you're looking for great Chinese carry-out, or a quick dinner for two (or ten), this is your place!
(5)Gary P.
If you like Chinese cuisne and don't have a ton of money to spend, this is the place for you! The friendly staff keeps the drinks filled and the food is fresh and yummy, dispite the old, tired look of the place. Great lunch specials with egg roll! If you are thinking of fast food and want to spend $5 on lunch . . . be smart and give yourself a giant upgrade for the same cash, . . head to Big Heng
(4)Vinnie P.
Just an update: This restaurant is worth it. Some things just stand the test of time. Times change and the prices have gone up a tiny bit but the food here and the service STILL can't be beaten. Great Chinese food always ranks high in my book. Especially since "GOOD" Chinese food is so hard to find in this neck of the woods. Once again, after 11 years of living in Arizona, BIG HENG offers the best Chinese food around. Price, quality, quantity and service can't be beat!! I wish there was more than 5 stars here because they deserve more.
(5)Amanda B.
This was a major hang out during my high school years. I worked at the library up the road and went to school less than two miles away, so we'd find excuses to dart off to Big Heng. The family that owns the restaurant is wonderful and the staff has a very low turn-over rate; you'll always be greeted with familiar old faces. I have nothing but fond memories. The last few times I've stopped by, the food quality has deteriorated quite a bit. In the last couple of times I've gone by, though, I've spotted the sign that's thrown it all off for me: We Use Monosodium Glutamate.
(2)Patrick D.
The service here was good. There is nothing to complain about the food here; my wife is a bigger fan of it than I am. The portions were generous and the prices were about on par with any other chinese food place in Phoenix. I recall that there's only about four dinner combo meals which are a combination of some of the same things over and over. This is probably the only reason for me that I don't give it four stars (or go back more often). It doesn't look impressive inside or out, but that shouldn't stop you from checking it out.
(3)Bryan S.
This dive delivers! The best chinese food that I have had in the valley. Prices are ridiculously cheap, food is awesome and the staff treat you like family once they get to know you. I love this place.
(5)Janice M.
First time here and my daughter LOVED IT! Great service, great food nice atmosphere. Definitely will return anytime I am on that side of town.
(5)Joe W.
Best chinese place I have had in the valley I have been eating here for years. The waiters are very nice. They often know many of the customers by name. They always remember our drink order and food order. They are very quick on refills etc. The food portions are huge. Dont let the looks fool you. Yes it does look like a dump. Its been there like 20 years... give them a break :) Try it out
(5)Clyde L.
Our new hot spot for cheap, good Chinese lunch specials. Good portions of food all for about $5. Dinners are a few dollars more. Nice and clean and friendly / attentive .
(4)Sirena R.
My best friend and I love Big Heng. The staff knows our regular order, they are always fast and the prices are cheap. I recommend lunch over dinner since the prices are cheaper and portions still the same. I love the chicken teryaki and crab puffs are the best!
(4)Art C.
WOW.......nice hole in the wall Chinese place. I loved the food, waitresses are nice and courteous. There is one that is a flirt and funny.LOL Few things i love here are; Wor won ton soup, All i can say is wow. Besides this place i don't know what other place serves the Wor won ton soup. i was used to it in Cali. The house fried rice is the bomb, tasty very tasty. the wifey loved the the stuffed crab puffs. The house sweet and sour, very delicious!!! Beef broccoli, very tasty. Egg soup is exquisite. I'm planning to go back and try different dishes, but so far it has not disappointed me. One draw back but is worth it is its way in Peoria and I'm in east phx, LOL
(5)Sue G.
We have been ordering Big Heng food for years. Recently I gave up meat and consider myself a vegetarian. I have had the bean curd vegetarian dishes which I thought were very tasty until tonight. My husbad got the food. He ordered the bean curd dish and after eating through a little of it I noticed there were several pieces of chicken in it. So needless to say I won't order anymore from Big Heng. That is pretty careless.
(1)Grace R.
Great place to eat inexpensive Chinese food and the wait staff are very friendly!
(4)Tina K.
Best Chinese food I have found in this area. It is cheap, huge portions and really good! If you get take out and you tip them they give you a little extra something =) like a couple free egg rolls or crab puffs. So very good! Quick service to! My husband always gets the House Noodles or the Moo shew Pork he loves them! The sesame chicken and the emperor chicken is always good. I recommend!
(5)Eric W.
Great food at reasonable prices. Dinner combo's for two are a good deal!
(5)Jack N.
The food is truly a 3.5 but I rounded to 4 because of the service, portions, and value. I tried to order from Little Saigon several times and it just went to their voice mail. Finally someone picked up but the little bastard said Little Saigon was too busy to take to go orders at the time. So I went on yelp to find somewhere else in a pinch. I have seen this place before and the outside looks really suspect. I ordered beef and broccoli, chicken and vegetable stir fry, and some crab puffs. Picked it up in 15 minutes. The lady was extremely nice. She gave me some extra hot sauce. Then when I left a tip she seemed as though she was shocked. She said to wait right here and came back with a bag of two free egg rolls. I guess people don't tip often for take out. Anyhow, I told my wife I sure hope the food was good cause I loved that little older lady in there. Got home and it was pretty tasted. Everything was very hot, fresh, and had a pretty good flavor to it. The only thing I would have changed was a little spicier and a little less sauce but other than that it was great for pick up in a pinch. Best of all. They gave me enough food to feed a family of five and all for under 20 bucks!! Now that's what I'm talking about. Left over Chinese for lunch tomorrow.
(4)Theresa C.
Ugh...finally I always complain when I'm dragged to this place..too much gross food for such a lil price...people you must not be stuck in a lil world of big hen..venture out ..
(1)Josh F.
Great food and even better prices. I do not know of a better lunch special in town!
(5)Si Y.
been fan since 1999.. food is always great! and staff is always friendly.. except for this older lady.. she has her moments where she will be yelling at someone in the kitchen.. lol! same staff since i have known the place.. it might not be the fancy or most attractive looking Chinese restaurant, but you will get plenty of quality food that will satisfy your hunger.. try sesame chicken.. or honey glazed walnut shrimp.. mmm good!
(4)Joanna W.
Thanks Yelpers! Just moved into this neighborhood and decided to give Big Heng a try. The name alone is enough to get me to eat there, because really, who doesn't love a big heng? My kids devoured the sweet and sour pork. I like that they put the sauce on the side so the tempura pork is still crispy when you get it home. The egg drop soup was quite flavorful. I like the house fried rice - it's probably just soy sauce and rice really, but it sure did taste good. I've been in Phoenix for 6 years and this is only the second Chinese food experience I've had that made me say, "yes, I'd go there again." The only thing I didn't really like was that the snow peas in the shrimp with snow peas were a bit soggy. But I can live with that knowing that everything else was a hit with the whole family. And the Dinner for 4 served 5 easily with enough leftovers for lunch for 5.
(4)Anthony A.
Great food at really great prices! Two meals for around 20$. And they give you a great portion . Definitely more bang for you buck. Terrific service every time. I highly recommend it. I love it great spot in my favorite town! The Sweet and Sour Pork never disappoints . The atmosphere is always friendly.
(5)Becky S.
Been here a couple of times now and both times it was awesome. The first time I had the sesame chicken dinner and today I had the orange chicken dinner. The sesame chicken is excellent here. Most places I've had sesame chicken it just taste oily. Heng's sesame is very sweet, honey-flavored, with a bit of ginger - very pleasant. As is pretty normal for Chinese restaurants, the orange chicken isn't anywhere near spicy but you can have them spice it up more. Great crab puffs and fried rice here as well!
(5)Michael B.
Very good, even after it sitting out for an hour when I got home from work..... Will def order from there again!
(4)Shelly S.
I used to love this place and everyone I took with me loved it. Great food and service with reasonable prices. Something important to me was that they always rated very high with their health inspections. However, the last few years they've gone seriously downhill and consistently rate very low with their health inspections. I no longer eat here. I continue to check their health inspections as I hope they'll turn things around and once again be a very clean restaurant.
(1)Heather Y.
Soooooooo I used to go to this place was I was a small child and just went there for the first time in about....7-9 years last night. OMG YUM! I love love love their food. I ordered a dinner special (there's 4) and they give you sooooooo much food for $7-8. I got the sesame chicken, fried rice, chicken lo mein, crab puff, and egg roll plate. It also came with egg drop soup. I LOVE egg drop soup, but most places don't make it good. They made some of the best I've ever had. Next time I go, I am just ordering a big bowl of that. Anyway, I had to pay an extra $1.50 because I substituted the sesame chicken for the teryiaki chicken. No biggie, it was still a steal! My BF got the sweet and sour pork with fried shrimp and lo mein and fried rice. He loved it too. He said their hot mustard was the hottest he's ever had.......and then ran a train on it :o) Only thing I didn't like was the bathroom. But hey, who rates a restaurant on that?? It just stunk and was also used as a storage closet. Anyway, if you're out this way, stop in. You'll get amazing food for an unbelievably low price. No wonder they've been in business for 15-20 years.
(4)Luke S.
This place has the best beef and fried rice in the valley, and the second best in the country. It seems to be family owned and operated, with familiar, courteous staff. Dine-in or take some for the road!! Now i'm hungry....
(5)J R.
The only place I go to for sweet and sour chicken. Its the best!
(5)
