I wish we had a Chinatown in Phoenix, but we don't. I have lived in Phoenix for years, and had pretty much given up on decent Chinese food before discovering Flamingo Palace. It's our go to when ordering in--we have never been disappointed.

Haven't eaten Chinese food in 20 years. Always felt sluggish afterwards. Not Yesterday. Ate Lu ch from 2-3:30. My good friend Vaughn had many things to catch up on. My Prayer before we ate was that my growth as a Christian Convert these past 5 years as been Due to a few mentors who have stepped into my life! 5.2 yrs ago I converted from Judaism . The service today was Totally Awesome, No request was left to chance. Our Soup came first. Than the Pu-Pu Platter. Very delicious

Great atmosphere and great food. I've been to a lot of Chinese restaurants and this one is very good. I always order the shrimp fried rice and walnut shrimp. We've had the dumplings and other dishes. They have booths and tables and always have free hot tea. The staff is very pleasant too.

Just received door dash order and the food is horrible, I should've went to Panda Express. Won ton soup was just globs of mushy dough, foul tasting egg rolls, horrendous sweet sour pork. Garbage just garbage after a few bites we through where it belonged, in the garbage.

best chinese food in phoenix! if you can't decide, eat here. The fried rice is amazing, the egg rolls and spring rolls are also really good. Everything was super flavorful and it was very reasonably priced for how much food you get. 10/10 will come back again!
Flamingo Palace was referred to me by my dear friend, who never steers me wrong. I trusted his recommendation to order the Flamingo Chicken dinner. I'm a classic Orange Chicken kind of girl, and hesitate to deviate from the norm. But, why not? I decided to give it a try. Wow, was I amazed! It was truly one of the best dishes I've ever had. Since then, I find myself craving the tender, crispy Chicken bathed in a tangy, sweet sauce. Once you try this, it'll be hard to not order it.

I honestly have seen it tucked into the corner and have never been. Craving Chinese food with actual sit down service. ( not take out). Walked in and was welcomed and seated at a booth. The place is spotless!! It smelled so good . Our server was great. Attentive and we ordered beer and a MaiTai. Delicious. Can really taste the rum. ( a great thing) Husband got Scallops and Shrimp in Szechuan sauce. I ordered Singapore rice noodles. We started with spring rolls. Everything was delicious. Hot and made to order. Can't wait to return!!

Not sure why this place only gets 3 1/2 stars. I have eaten here about 5 times and think the food is always like the food. It is always very clean and the service is great.

I do not know why Asian restaurants get such terrible reviews. This one gets five stars.The Flamingo is back in the corner of the shopping center. It's easy to miss. If you face Ray's Pizza, you will find it to your left. This is a traditional Cantonese style eatery. At lunch, they serve combination plates, which come with a choice of soups, either Egg Drop or Hot and Sour. The egg drop has with some peas and carrots. Both soups have full flavors. The egg drop is smooth, and the vegetables in it, are a welcome change from the bowl of sameness.Whatever you order comes with an egg roll. In their reviews, people have complained that it comes with "mystery meat". In Asian cooking, the default meat is pork. It doesn't have to Oink for you to know it's pork, but I say Oink you, and hold you in contempt. The eggrolls are crisp. At about six inches long, they are steamy, fragrant and tender crisp. You have a choice of fried or white rice. I do not think the white rice they serve is Jasmine rice. I do think the fried rice is delicious. The food is done to a turn. They do have Szechwan dishes available. Cooking is to your order as mine was. They are cautious with seasoning. Still the taste is terrific. The wait staff is very busy. Service might be a little slow. In this time, when labor is short, it can be overlooked.
Very clean and super nice staff?
Always friendly and treat people like people.
