The lemon chicken was awesome! I thought I had sworn off lemon chicken for the rest of my life. Ive have that lemon pudding sauce that others glom in their chicken. Not even close to the awesome sauce on this lemon chicken. The sauce is light and lemony. Very refreshing and tasty. Im glad the host suggested it. I will definitely order this again. My wife had Mushroom Chicken and really enjoyed that as well. The prices are great. Serving sizes were large. The atmosphere in fresh and clean. The No Tip policy is cool! I love this place! The loss of a star came from the ordering process. I loved the idea of ordering on the computer screen. We encountered a couple software glitches trying to pay through the system... also the interface could be a bit easier to use with larger photos of the dishes, but I liked the experience of ordering at the kiosk. We will certainly be back.

Last week, Saturday, I took my wife there for our 25 wedding anniversary. At first, it was a little bit confused whether I should sit and wait for service or just go to order myself. The owner nicely recommended and introduced us the food choice. After we ordered our food, we enjoy the spacious sitting. The environment is uplifting with the positive quotes. They have TIME magazines too. . The food is yummy. When I ready to leave, I am surprised to find out they have three automatic order machines. Then I pay a little more attention, the entrance is nicely designed for frequent visitors. I used one of them to order food for my children. It was in good qualify and not greasy. There is no MSG added, therefore, we don’t feel thirty after our dinner. Definitely visit again to check the consistence of qualify of the food.

Ive been there a few times and its never disappointed me. Ive tried to get something new every time and everything Ive eaten there is delicious. Most of the food there is made to order with the exclusion of a few items that they make ahead and have on warmers so the wait time for your food is a bit longer than youd normally expect with this type of restaurant. In my opinion its totally worth it, but only if you have a bit of time to spare (not a 10 minute lunch break kind of food option). So far this is the only Chinese restaurant that Ive ever been to that makes good orange and lemon chicken. Its sweet but not overpowering and not greasy! I wish I could replicate it at home since we live too far to go there often, but its well worth the trip all by itself.

I really like this place. You could spend money at that white and black bear Chinese chain. Or for around the same price or less, you could actually enjoy your food and eat here. TemptAsian doesnt just coat all the food in tempura, slather on a bunch of MSG rich sweet sauce, and fry it to hell. I feel like their food is made with more care. Dont get me wrong. Sometimes I like to flirt with diabetes too. But as my palate develops I dont really want a blob of candied Chinese food much anymore. I have eaten here about 5 or 6 times and have not been disappointed. They are very consistent.

I loved the food and the atmosphere of the restaurant. The Temptasian Orange Chicken is the BEST by far and is almost like CANDY. I wasnt a fan of the Sweet and Sour chicken, we had them remake us some more because the chicken was dry and weird tasting, but sadly the new plate tasted just the same. Which is why it only gets a 4 star and not a 5! But ALL the other kinds we tried were AMAZING. Also, the staff could be a little more friendly... so it gets a FOUR for the FOOD. Price is decent, and everything but the sweet and sour is pretty amazing! Give it a try!! Ill go again for sure!

Every step of this place took waaaaaay too long. From ordering our food and waiting to receive it. We had to stand in line for 20 minutes when only four people were ahead of us. Once our order was placed we spent the next hour contemplating ordering a pizza while we wait. What we thought would be a 30-40 minute stop for food (understanding its a made to order joint) took entirely too long. Not to mention once we finally didnget our food it was still missing my wifes appetizer. We were told it would be right out...we finished our meals, waited, never saw it and left.

Great Chinese food! Lemon chicken and orange chicken is the best around! The beef and broccoli was the most authentic Ive had outside of Chinatown The food was fresh and delicious. I found the food perfectly seasoned with the depth of flavor created by using some Chinese spices. My favorite thing was that the food wasnt greasy unlike virtually all Chinese food joints in this price range. The ambiance of the place is very bright, chic, and modern. Very Clean! Definitely coming back again!

I wish I could give more stars for this place but I would have to say the service is lacking a bit. The food is above par but the atmosphere could use a lot of TLC. They sort of snub their nose at asking for special considerations like gluten free options or variations of their a bit over-priced foods. There is potential if they are open to changing. The owners are great people, just need a little attitude adjustment and to liven up the atmosphere.

Food is really good, some of the best Chinese food Ive had, and definitely the best in UT county. It can be a little slow at times, so call ahead. For those who said portions were small, I couldnt disagree more. If you get the dinner portion or a la carte, the portions feed 2 people easily. My wife and I can get four meals out of two entrees and two sides, we stuff ourselves at each meal. Food is awesome. We visit once a week.

For how clean and modern this place is, the food is surprisingly authentic. I really liked the braised fish and beef, and the bbq pork (which we know as char-siu in Chinese cuisine). As far as I can tell, the folks cooking the food are actually of Asian descent - not that theres anything wrong if theyre not - but I like the family business and authentic cooks. I was glad I dropped in and discovered this place.

Surprisingly very good food with a nice setup, but the ordering process should be improved (generally its giving an order to a soft spoken woman who takes down the order at the register, then you pay, are given a number, she has someone else get the food at a bar area like youd see at Panda, then they call your number out. Id prefer it to be more like Cafe Rio or at least have a big overhead menu)

This place has fun food. Asian is the best type I can give you, because they have a little of everything, but it is all so good. At my work whenever we need to order in, this place is one of our go to restaurants. My favorite is the Singapore noodles, but any of the chefs specials are wonderful. Give it a shot and you will be happy you did.
