Gross! I went in on a Friday at 11:30 am. Called in order first. Arrived 15 minutes later as required. Order was not ready as promised. Thats OK though, debit card machine was down. Left and came back with cash. Food still not ready. FINALLY got my food home. Sauce on orange chicken was plain nasty. Clearly leftover from Thursday. Mostly tasted like chilli. Fried rice may have been left over. Not sure. Had almost no flavor. Egg roll and crab puffs were okay, but not noteworthy. Ill never go back.

I really loved going to China Lite since owners were very welcoming and food was good with great price. Today, I ordered my usual, beef fried rice, and a piece of iron sponge was in the fried rice. I showed that iron sponge piece, and they said "Sorry, it happens after washing the wok with the sponge." It was absurd. Also, they charge me the full price of the fried rice after what happened. I will not go back there. People, please advise there might be a piece of iron sponge in your dish when you go in!

Good food, nice casual environment. One dish I got, a curry noodle dish, did not have the vegetables described on the menu and noodles could have used a lot more sauce, more chicken, more veggies. Had a bit of chicken and a few red peppers which wasnt listed on description either. Noodles were on the dry side. Orange chicken, fried rice and crab puffs were all very good as was the service. I will go back.

Great lunch spot. Doesnt look like much from the outside, but the newly remodeled interior is nice and inviting. The service is always friendly (I believe the woman who has served me the few times I have been there is the owner). The food is tasty and an excellent value. It seems a little less oily or greasy than something you would get at other Chinese food take out spots.

I came to China Lite for lunch with my wife and we were blown away by the food. We enjoyed an absolutley fantastic pho-style tom yum, delicious spicy chicken dish, and a kimchee beef dish that was out of this world! We even had a chance to chat with the chef, KC, about his restaurant and experience. Super, super nice guy with a lovely wife. We cant wait to go back!

BOMB FOOD. Just moved to the area and wanted to find a good place for Chinese food, I didnt realize it would be the BEST fast-food Chinese food Ive ever had. The shrimp and chicken dishes are awesome. The name does not lie, the food is also surprisingly light. I go here at least a few times a month as their food is consistently awesome

Family and I liked it, flavors are good and prices are reasonable. In my opinion there are a lot of good chinese restaurants in Phoenix areas, this one is not on my top list, but I can see several people like it a lot. Presentation of dishes is pretty good, service is outstanding, food came out very quick.

Consistently good food. As the name implies the food seems less oily and the meat more choice cuts than most Asian food style restaurants. Love the Kung Pao and Fireball Chicken, and always worth a little extra for brown rice haha.

I really dont have high expectations. I was hoping to get some sweat sesame chicken. What I got was some bland boiled chicken with some vegetables, a weird red sauce, and doused with a handful of sesame seeds. Will not be back.

Great food, good lunch specials, fast and very nice service. The server always splits the check up for lunch orders without hesitation, which can be rare for sit down lunch restaurants.

Favorite dish is the spicy shrimp, enjoy lunch for next to nothing. Food has an authentic taste to it. Not your regular Chinese place. Clean and upscale and courteous staff.

Quiet and somewhat clean. Didnt feel like barfing after, food was well prepared and wasnt too unhealthy tasting. Soda machine wasnt stocked with ice but I would go back.

Been a fan of China Lite for a number of years, at Chandler location when it was there as well. Some of the better quality Chinese in Phoenix. Good food, good prices.

The food here is excellent, fresh and a nice low price. Its been remodeled too so it looks like a mini Pei Wei with better more healthy food.

Been going here for years as a local. Always upset when they are closed on weekends! Great food and owners.
