Never got to actually eat the food because when I tried to call in a pick up order they put me on hold for so long I hung up. Tried to call back, but the line was busy . . . they forgot they had a customer waiting and never hung up the phone. Ridiculous customer service.

This restaurant has a very friendly atmosphere and the food is delicious. I recommend everyone to try. You will get your money's worth.

I'll admit that I have been a China Bistro fanatic for nearly a decade. I'm into the "cheap eats". Give me a lot of good taste for little money. Where else could I feed my family of five for $20.00 and close to home?
Well, I found a new favorite for my orange chicken fixation. Maui Pho (pronounced "fuh"), I like to call it M.P. This new location is a match to China Bistro on price, but wins the war on portion size, and taste. After you look over the menu and its many items and place your order with the smiling young lady behind the counter, you can sit down at a table or a cushioned couch and watch some television on their large flat screen TV. Hit the soda bar (pepsi products) for refills until the tasty food arrives at your table. The food does take a little longer than the China Bistro express line, but its worth the wait, as they are cooking it to order.
I've ordered the triple combo for all three of my visits, changing up the entree each time. My last visit, I ordered the teriyaki chicken (my 3rd favorite of the choices, great sauce and good pieces of meat), orange chicken (my favorite with the homemade orange sause recipe), and sweet & sour chicken (comes with green peppers, my 2nd favorite). My fourth favorite, but not ordered on my last visti, is the sweet & sour pork that comes with real pieces of pineapple in the sauce. I received a mound of each plus great tasting rice (with large pieces of egg, which I like, inside) and choimein. All of this arrived on a large, real plate (not styrofoam). My wife has tried the egg soup (HUGE bowl) which comes with some wonton sticks, potstickers, egg roles, and a few other dishes and has enjoyed them all. We were even treated to their salt/pepper shrimp. DELICIOUSLY flavored and large portions. Unlike other cheap Chinese places, every piece of chicken was edible and delicious. None of those "chew-forever" and spit into your napkin pieces at The M.P.
On each visit, we noticed the owners working in the back and coming out to say hello to some of the customers. Some of which seemed to be regulars due to the young lady behind the counter greeting them by name. Others who have been to The M.P. have recommended the Boba drinks. Guess I'll have to try those on my next visit.
M.P. has the taste of PF Changs, but the pricing of China Bistro and in between on the atosphere and decor. 2 triple combo meals and I can feed my family of five for $20.00 and be full at the end of the meal. You can't beat that in today's economy.
Give Maui Pho (M.P.) a shot when you're on Ming avenue doing some shopping. The place is located in the new Home Depot/Zody's shopping center) If you're a China Bistro fan, you may find yourself switching over to The M.P. I did!
