Reviews for Kung Food Amerasia in Covington, KY
We were super excited to visit this place because it always smells so good. Upon arrival the atmosphere was super fun!... Unfortunately the wait staff was sub par. My two dishes were delicious, but my mom’s tasted sour. Sour as in something in itwas bad. This establishment closes at 8:45pm and we arrived around 8pm, but there were several other customers in there and somearrived after us. Upon expressing our concerns about the entreé’s issue, our waitress simply said, “Well the kitchen isclosed so I can take it off your check.” Meanwhile a couple other patrons had just received their food, so I’m not sure whatthe big deal or attitude was about. Disappointing to say the least! Read more
Interesting experience I guess. I think our waiter recommended the sweet and sour soup when he said "that $h!t is cheap" so we... tried it. Theme of the night was soup I think. All our dishes were soupy and not just the soup. Big portions if your reallyhungry. The waiter took about 3 smoke breaks while we were being served - you could see him just outside of the window on thefront sidewalk. I kinda wish more restaurants like this would just scrap the whole waiter bringing the food to you and insteadyou could just order at the bar and pick up your food when it was ready and sit down. I'm not planning on going back - just toomany other options to try. Didn't love it didn't hate it. 2.5/5 stars Read more
We walked in and it was packed. However, we were immediately seated! We waited a little while we looked at the gorgeous mural,... hanging decor, old kung-fu movies playing and listened to the banging music (not too loud). Once we ordered, the food came soquickly! The drinks we got tonight are limited time cocktails whose profits go to charities! It ends August 19th so hurry in toget one! They were both delicious and full of amazing subtle tones of fruit, and vanilla and spice. (We got the Berry Bourbonand the Ballad of Gillian's Isle). The food itself was out of this world delicious. I've never had more deliciousChinese-American Cuisine, not even in New York City. The price as usually $14 per entree but it will definitely last you anothermeal. SO. WORTH IT. Read more
As a true chili head and spice lover this place is great! They do ask how spicy you want to go but they will add some actual... heat if you request it. The egg drop and wonton soup are so yummy and everything tasted so fresh. I've never had an alcoholicdrink with matcha in it and I loved it. Read more
Generous portions, even for lunch. The wonton soup was okay. I wish I would have gotten a whole bowl of just that. The kung pow... chicken was alright. I wish that on the lunch menu it would have detailed having water chestnuts in it. I would say that therestaurant favors the aesthetic on their menu rather than listing what is in their dishes. Service was okay. After a waitressbrought my food, nobody checked in on me or saw that I needed any refills. Also, while the place is designed intricately,putting frying nets and woks on the wall for decoration leaves a sour taste in my mouth as an Asian American. Read more
Above average place for Chinese-American food. Had the orange chicken with fried rice and I was impressed by the quality/taste... of the food and the quantity. Menu had a lot of things I’d like to try so will likely be coming back in the near future. Alsoliked the vibes of the restaurant including the wall art and the anime on the TVs. Read more
Always amazingly delicious food that makes your mouth and belly happy! They have above average heat levels too so if your... feeling brave and like spicy try going up in heat from 0 to 10. I had the Orange chicken level 9 and I felt it for over an hourand it made my nose and eyes water but the flavor was still amazing! Read more
I had only tried them through delivery and knew we had to try the restaurant as the food is so flavorful. When I walked in the... restaurant I thought it was new based on how new and clean it looks. It was a very good start to our date. The ambiance isawesome starting with the murals and the beautiful lighting, and really everything was visually fun to look at and discovernew Ok and the food. i remember from delivery that they give great spice levels with actual spice so be careful not to add toohot. I got a 3 with the fun noodles and I loved everything about them. A little hotter would have been nice but when I took abite of my husbands "6" spice level it was nice to go back to my spice level 3. He got the king Pao chicken and it was equallyflavorful and the spice level was on point and I didn't tear up or anything but I felt it in my nose :). The noodles in the funnoodles are such a comfort food... I love them as they are slightly chewy and just pick up all the flavors perfectly. We had awonderful time and meal and the service was fantastic as well... Finally, while everyone else is minimizing portions andincreasing rates, this restaurant felt like a GREAT deal for the amount and quality level of the food. Read more
