Phoenix Food Boutique - South Pasadena

I ordered takeout thru uber and the food was great! We had the coconut mango rolls which are 10/10, very great and fresh flavor and bigger portion than I expected. Definitely recommend. We also had the shrimp egg rolls which were nice and crispy and were loaded with delicious shrimp that was not overcooked. Will be ordering this again next time. The young chow fried rice with Chinese sausage, eggs, and green onions did not disappoint. It was a nice big portion (it fed me, my boyfriend, and toddler). The only small downside is that is was a bit oily, but I recommend trying this dish. The stir fry noodles with beef brisket had good flavor and plenty of meat. The meat tasted fresh and soft. Lastly, the braised beef stew noodle soup was the greatest dish we got from here. The broth has a hint of ginger and comes with bokchoy and the beef which were cooked to perfection. It tasted very fresh and authentic. I definitely recommend this dish if it is your first time.

My friend and I visited the establishment around 1:30 pm on Saturday, and it was not busy at all (pleasantly surprised!) As we had already eaten lunch, we picked up desserts and ate them outside. There are a few tables outside if you prefer Al fresco. I have been to other locations but I like this one. The staff members were very friendly, and I will definitely come back when I am in the area.

Parking can be a little crazy depending on the time but for the most part, I can always find a spot. Coming in at night, it can be easy to miss the entrance so look carefully! I recommend using cash because I got double charged one time for someone else’s order. They ended up refunding me but I could have easily missed that on my credit card statement. I looooove Phoenix’s mango desserts! Absolutely the best!! From their silken mango tapioca with condensed milk to their mango tapioca drink and their mango tofu 🤤🤤🤤🤤 absolutely the best!! I always make the mistake of thinking the tofu’s in their little fridge is already flavored but they label it to show you what they can flavor it as. For instance, I wanted the mango tapioca with condensed milk tofu and she told me to grab the silken tofu with ginger. She clarified to me that it does not have the ginger taste (I don’t like ginger) and sure enough, she flavored it with everything I wanted so it was delicious!!! Their black sesame tofu is also super delicious😋😋 As you can tell, I only come here for dessert. I have tried the food and it’s okay. But their desserts are phenomenal!!!!

Great for a quick bite to eat or ordering to go/delivery. The seating might be a little cramped, but there is seating on the patio. I often stop in to eat and take out when I work in the area. Whether you’re looking for a cold drink, snack, meal or family style orders...this place doesn’t disappoint.

Very disappointed with this place. They increase the price of their desserts, yet they cut costs by giving less than they are supposed to. There are still plenty of space left in the cup when they scoop the black sesame and red bean & lotus seed. And I have pictures to prove it. For sure will not come back to this place.
