Came at night so can't account for the view. Food was ok. Nothing amazing. Typical club type food. My mom had the chicken pot pie which was probably the best thing so far - it was very wide in a shallow bowl so deceivingly big looking. But it was good. Otherwise, it took so darn long for the food that it was definitely not worth it though.

Let me start by saying that I am not of Chinese descent. I can't say much about the authenticity or how this food compares with stuff actually in Asia. I am also not from LA, which if you look around Phoenix Yelp, seems to be the epicenter of all food creation forever and ever amen. Just saying. I happen to think Phoenix food in general is pretty darn swell and in my white girl opinion, I also happen to think that iKitchen's food is wonderfully delicious. Rundown: - Food seems really cheap for what you get. Have gone twice and each time the food we've gotten has been enough for two meals. Two meals and a good side of potstickers was $19. - Potstickers were lovely. Black bean dry noodle is personal favorite and delicious. Got their Taiwanese chicken and "special" vegetable soup and it was really good (I just looked on their online menu, I don't remember what this soup was called, whatever it was, it felt delicious and hearty and healthy feeling). Boba tea here was one of the first I really liked and boyfriend loved it. - Server here is wonderful and always recommends dishes for us to try. Very helpful and sweet. And, um, what's the fuss about decor? It's a cheap restaurant. It's clean, well-lit, and that's enough for me.

This restaurant is located in a nice southern highlands shopping center. I have passed it up before due to the yelp reviews but my boyfriend and I bought a groupon so we decided to try it. We were immediately greeted. When we sat down, our drink orders were taken right away. My boyfriend had a $5 draft beer, he was happy with the reasonable price. We ordered a variety of tapas, we had the mac&cheese, the stuffed peppers, the bacon wrapped dates, the sausage, spicy shrimp, and some ham and cheese croquettes. Everything was delicious! The spicy shrimp was my favorite, but the dates were a close second. I would recommend this place to anyone who likes to try a little bit of everything on the menu. :) The service was really great and the food was even better!

I wanted to love this place and I will come back for a second opinion. So we got here at 5PM on Friday for some Pizza and Beer (right off the bat we were told they could not make any pizzas tonight). The bar side was moderately busy but not overwhelming, the waitress was knowledgeable about the beers and gave us some decent advise on what to order. So we decided on a flight of beers, as we looked over the menu for something besides pizza. We ordered the boneless spicy buffalo wings, and the cheese and bacon fries. We settled on a beer we liked. And waited for our food...and waited....and waited. Finally when the food came out we dug into the fries. They were pretty good. Then I ate one of the boneless chicken wings and low and behold no spicy buffalo sauce, just plain chicken. I looked for our waitress and she was nowhere to be found WE WAITED OVER 20 MINUTES!! Till we found her. In fact three tables had to hunt her down, one for a refill on drinks, the other so they could tally their bill and depart, and me because my order was wrong. So get this!! She takes the order back, the cook just pours cold sauce on them and I get the same ones back, cold and tossed in sauce. B.S!!! Who like cold chicken? I don't blame the waitress and I understand the place is new and has to work out some kinks but the first experience was a bad experience, -understaffed, -no happy hour specials, -no pizza, -incorrectly correcting an incorrect order. -Customers should not have to hunt down their servers. On a lighter not.. if you like wheat style beers I highly recommend the Sofie. I will try this place again around the same time in about a month to see if it just the jitters of a new location or a permanent style of doing business. Follow up review to follow....
