Chino Bandido, Phoenix

I live out of state and whenever I am in the valley, I will always order in bulk and fill up my cooler so I can have my week in heaven. My only complaint is that Chino Bandido hasn't exanded westward yet. Everytime I eat here, I make a plea for expansion. My favorite dishes or the Jerk Chicken and Pollo Diablo combo with black beans and jerk fried rice. I always make sure to use both kinds of salsas that I pour off to the side and use as a dip to enhance flavoral quality of the experience. Thank you Thank you O' Great Chino!!!!

At first the thought of Chinese and Mexican combined scared me a little. But it is great. It is such a unique combination that somehow it works. When you get there they will give you a taste of most of the menu and when you decide to go back you can try new things that might be weird to you at first. The service is very good. They place looks very low key, but that is part of its charm. The prices are definitely reasonable, especially for the portions they give you. Ordering can be a little confusing at first. They give you something to circle all of your options and for your fist time it can be a bit challenging because of the amount of options. This place is great for big parties. They have a lot of room and you all order seperately so you do not have to worry about splitting up the checks.

Everything about Chino Bandito is wonderful! The menu combines chinese and mexican with a dose of the caribbean and the result is the most unique taste sensation you'll ever find. The cookies are delicious. I especially love the volcano cookies they sometimes have on weekends. The staff is always friendly and helpful. And, although the family friendly dining room isn't elegant, for food this good, who cares?

I go there as much as i can. That is only about twice a month but when I live about 15 minutes away i would say thats pretty good. I like going in there and being welcomed by a huge stone panda with a six shotter and a somberro. The food is one of the best values u can get. When I leave feeling stuffed to the brim and it only cost me like eight dollars, sound good to me. The combination of Mexican and china food is a great idea. I have a shirt, hat and patch from there also.

Fantastic food, best Lunch in the North Valley. Don't expect fancy surroundings, that's part of the charm!

After waiting for what seemed like forever (actually just under a couple years) the Chino Bandido location is open in Chandler. My first visit to Chino Bandido was about seven years ago at the 19th Ave. & Greenway location and I've been waiting for one that was closer since then. Let's face it, people don't go there for the ambiance. It's all about the food. Besides, where was the last place you ate where the food was this good and it was served on paper plates or in a foil tub? :) Not sure what to get? Just ask for a sample and you'll never have to worry about ordering something you won't like. One visit is all it takes to figure out the ordering process, and every visit after that will continue to amaze your tastebuds.

Chino's is awesome. A co-worker took me there once, about 3 years ago, and I have gone there at least once a week ever since!! I love the Jerk chicken in a quesadillia along with the jade chicken on top of jerk fried rice and black beans with cheese!! Can you say YUMMIE!!! :)

Great food, great prices, very casual, family friendly atmoshphere. Gourmet food at take out prices, this is a real gem! I live in Michigan, but when I visit my friend in Cave Creek, I demand we go at least twice and last time it was straight from the airport and just before I left. Jade Chicken is my favorite, but if you like it spicey, go for the Jerk Chicken in a quesedilla. I also tried their emerald chicken, which has fresh ginger and a mild salt taste, YUM. Cookies are fresh and the staff in geniunely friendly and nice.

The food is a inviting mix of mexican / chinese and some jamaican spices thrown in the mix for good effect. It's everyday food done to perfection
