Indian

  • The Royal Taj
    • Located on the Southeast corner of Southern and McClintock in Tempe. Friendly service by owner Raj.



Mongolian

  • YC's Mongolian Bar-B-Q
    • You get a big bowl and a try, and line up to a Buffet style line where you can choose your frozen meat, fresh veggies and sauce. When your bowl is loaded down (don't for get to compress the mother trucker down.) you hand it to the very authentic Mongolian (Mexican) and they will put it on a great big round griddle, and push it around with water. When you get it back, its a bowl of love. Grab some peanuts (allergies allowing), Pineapple, and HOT mustard. One Location in Tempe, and another near Metro Center in Phoenix

WTF

  • Chino Bandito's
    • Several locations in the valley, including Greenway, and 19th Ave. Mexican meets Chinese with a splash of Jamaican. Featuring all of your favorites and a few new items. Jade Chicken is a personal favorite with all white chicken, topped with a paste of ginger, green onion, salt and garlic (The owner told me so). Meals from this fine eatier can include Sweet and Sour Pork, Cheese Quesadilla, Jerk Fried Rice, and Refried black beans. All combos come with a Snickerdoodle!
