A: My boyfriend and I ordered last night around 7:15, probably the peak of dinner time. Our food arrived quickly and smelled delicious. So you can imagine our disappointment. I got the Cashew Chicken combo, which came with fried rice, an eggroll, and a crab puff, and the serving was HUGE. I dished up a portion of it, combing through the cashew chicken for the chicken. The chunks were sparse, to say the least. But, okay, I like water chestnuts and peas as much as the next girl. Moving on to the fried rice: I have never tasted anything so bland. It was like putting textured air into my mouth. I looked at my boyfriend, who was eating Sweet and Sour Pork and white rice. "Eating" probably isn't the right word; it was more like poking and prodding with a sad look on his face. We agreed it was a sad meal. I turned my attention back to my own plate. Maybe the crab puff would be good? Nope. I bit through the hard, not flaky pastry and into a cream sauce that just kind of sat there, not tasting like anything. The last attempt to find something edible was the egg roll. It was passable, but after all that, my taste buds were no longer in the mood. I tossed what was left on my plate (which was most of it) and put the rest that was still in the box into the fridge, in the hopes that the leftovers will be a little better. That can happen, right? The worst part is that I would rather give my money to independent businesses instead of chains, but Chopstick Express is not worth it. I would rather get my Chinese fix from Panda Express, because it's not depressing. My boyfriend saved the takeout menu that was left on the front door "just in case" he said. I cannot imagine what kind of case would arise where we would put ourselves through that ever again. If I am going to indulge in Chinese, the calories had better be worth it. You're not going to get that Chopstick Express.

A: My friend and I ate at the other location in Scottsdale just a few nights ago. We were not very hungry and shared that gnocchi and ravioli and it was amazing. Since we both love Italian food we came back for more at the location in Phoenix. I loved the homemade gnocchi so much I had to order it again. It is made with a cream sauce and has a touch of red sauce on top. For being a slightly more filling type of pasta the cream sauce is perfect. It's light and flavorful without being to heavy. The red sauce is very delicious too. I personally am not a seafood fan; however, my friend ordered the seafood linguine and she loved it. She said that there was an amazing amount of seafood in it. She was able to fill up on essentially just the seafood and only had a small portion of the linguine. She did also loved the flavor of the pasta. Prior to the meal you receive a basket of bread that has been warmed with olive oil and fresh minced garlic. Yum! Upon reading other peoples reviews of the house salad...we knew to anticipate lettuce and tomato with a balsamic dressing. Although it is a very basic salad the flavors are still amazing. The tomato has a balsamic vinaigrette dressing with small bits of basil. I chopped up part of my tomato and placed on the garlic bread and made a small bruschetta :) also added some of the Parmesan to the salad! I'm not a big fan of salad in general and it was very enjoyable to me. We ended our meal with dessert. Although we both like Tiramisu...we love creme brulee even more. There creme brulee was very good with a perfectly toasted top and a smooth and creamy custard. It had it diced strawberries on top too. Another thing that made this restaurant amazing, was our server. He was kind, friendly, attentive, energetic, and fun. He definitely made our dining experience better. The great thing about this restaurant is you can order what you want and the food will be good. We finished the night here with a flaming Sambuca shot. This was really fun and on the house!! Did I mention that our server was AMAZING!!! If I lived in this area I would eat at this restaurant all the time. it puts chain Italian restaurants to shame! If I'm ever back in this area I will have to return here. I hope you try it out and have a great experience like we did!
