Haven't had such horrible Chinese food on a long time. We were only dine in couple for lunch. Service was extremely slow & server had no personality at all. Ordered almond chicken lunch special. Asked that sauce for the chicken and the sweet & sour chicken be on the side, not on the food. Gravy was in a separate bowl but sweet & sour sauce was not. Sauce was all over everything. Appetizer was drenched in sauce. Almond chicken was over cooked & dry & crusty. Gravy was salty & tasted horrible. Fried rice had no flavor at all. Server didn't check on how things were going & we had to chase her down in to the kitchen for our check to leave. This was the worst Chinese food we have had in a long time and advise you stay away, go elsewhere for lunch. This was the 2nd time there & it was almost as bad as our 1st visit. Horrible!!!

2nd time going to this restaurant & it's the last. We were only dine in at the time. Takeout was not busy. Had to wait 10 minutes to be seated which was long considering it was a slow day (lunch time). Waited again for menu. Server had no personality, took longer than normal to take order, didn't come by to see how things were. No comments when soup or food delivered to table. Ordered lunch special with almond fried chicken, sweet/sour chicken, fried rice & appetizer. Asked that sauce & gravy be on the side, not on food. Sweet/sour was drenched in sauce. Appetizer was also. Gravy for chicken was in a small bowl & looked like brown vomit. Chicken was overcooked & dry. Gravy was salty. Finished meal (again no additional contact from server) & had to chase down server so we could pay. I DO NOT RECOMMEND this horrible restaurant to anyone. Again, 2nd visit was worse than the 1st. YUCK!!!

Hair in my food, chow mein swimming in water, forced tipping if using credit card and 49 dollars plus tip for three lunch dishes. Never again.

Completely disappointed in the food and the service. Nothing was as portrayed on the menu or walls. Dead atmosphere at 5:30pm.

Stumbled upon this while trying to find a place to eat before seeing the lights of Christmas. Small cozy restaurant. Sweet and sour chicken was very tasty. Everything else we ordered was great as well. Would come back again if ever in the area.

Best Chinese food I've found in this small community. Customer service is excellent, food is always delicious, and prices are great compared to most other dine-in or take-out Chinese restaurants. Thank you for being a great part of this town.Kid-friendliness: Our kids have always loved the food here.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access off the sidewalk.

First off, five stars for the food. I especially recommend the Mongolian Beef. The sauce is terrific. Get the 5-stars for a nice bit of heat. The lunch specials are a bargain as they serve generous portions. Note: Orange Chicken is part of each lunch special, so don't order it as your entree unless you really, really love Orange Chicken! But I have to take one star off for the service. The owners are a hard-working couple, but it seems they are just hanging on. As of December 2023, there were no light in the bathroom (just a flashlight), so that implies the budget is tight. They really could use another waitress, so bring your patience when ordering. Then there was the issue of the incorrect food being brought out. Twice I ordered Sweet & Sour soup, and twice I was brought the Egg Flower soup. It was so slow in coming (fifteen minutes when only two other tables were occupied), that I was grateful to get any soup, so I didn't send it back. In summary, the food is terrific, but the service is spotty. I recommend Phoenix Pavilion as long as you realize this is a small-town restaurant run by a hard-working (and over-worked) couple.

Food was terrible!! Not once were we checked on by the waitress. The only thing I ate that was good was the fortune cookie!

Beat Chinese I've had. Good price for the amount of food you get. Very nice staff. Vibe inside is older but makes you enjoy your time more

Delightful Chinese food in Stanwood.. The food is delicious. The portions were outstanding for the price. The only disappointment is not knowing about it sooner.
They have the BEST orange chicken.
