We decided to try China Kitchen tonight for dinner. We got the dinner for 2 and it could easily feed 4. It looked really good and tasted even better. The egg rolls were really good and packed. Price? Very reasonable. Quiet and cozy inside. Give this place a try, very enjoyable food.

Had a huge order for 15 people. Tried almost everything on the menu. Everything was FANTASTIC. Pictures are not original packaging because they are leftovers. Was good the next day too. Lo mein was plain but good. Everything was delicious and fresh. Pictured is shrimp fried rice, sesame chicken, and chicken chop suey.

The almond chicken and wonton soup were actually very flavorful and cooked to perfection. The portion sizes were amazing. The establishment itself is a bit out dated and beat down. The service was okay at best the employees looked like they were ready to leave for the night. Solid Chinese spot though.

I recently visited this Chinese restaurant and had the Szechuan chicken — it was absolutely delicious! The dish was perfectly spicy with just the right balance of flavor and heat. What really impressed me was that even my parents, who can be pretty picky when it comes to trying new dishes, loved it too. The chicken was tender, the sauce was rich and flavorful, and the portion size was generous. We’ll definitely be coming back again soon!
