Reviews for Chinese Kitchen in Westmont, IL
The pork fried rice was delicious! The Szechuan green beans were flavorful but I was hoping for more spicy. The crab Rangoon was... nothing special and pretty bland. Read more
Website says they're open until 9 pm on Sundays. I placed an on line order (1 entree) at 8:15 pm, ran an errand and stopped by... to pick it up at 8:35, only to find their website was wrong - they close at 830. Not a good sign when they don't update theirwebsite; also not a good sign that they couldn't be bothered to let me know they weren't going to fill my order. We are notamused.... Read more
This is a no frills Chinese restaurant that serves authentic Cantonese food. I'm not sure if it suits the palettes of western... folks, but for people who love fried smelt or black bean clams or beef tendon with turnips like I do, this place is fast,consistent, authentic, and tasty. I wouldn't give this restaurant gold stars for service but they are also quite busy(especially during weekend lunch). I come here every few weeks and will continue to do so. Read more
Foods are good as told by friend. They are also less oily, tasty and generous. The place is small but the service was... fast. Salt and spicy Japanese Tofu was the best. Chinese spinach and garlic, Singapore curry flat rice noodle were good.Actually we asked for Char Kway Teow, not curry. Read more
The interior of this spot looks like it's been preserved since the 70s maybe 80s, but that aside the food is the best I've found... so far in the western suburbs. On our recent visit, we tried the Japanese fried tofu which was crispy, salty, spicy on theoutside, and piping hot on the inside. Bangin'. Also did an order of clams in black bean sauce. Solid, but preference would besome sort of white fish (there's always next time). Beef chow fun was pretty good. Lastly, the green string beans wereperfection. From the exterior, this place isn't much to look at, but the food and service were great. I see many more visits inthe near future and possible an upgrade to 5 stars as I get more acquainted with the food. 'Til next time, cheers! Read more
We ordered the Japanese Tofu, Peking Style Pork Chops, and Dau Miu (Pea shoots). Came with rice on the side. The food was... delicious and even with two people sharing, we had plenty of leftovers. Will definitely order/eat here again. Read more
I was skeptical of the reviews for this restaurant on Yelp, but after trying it out, I am a believer! They said that the food... here is comparable to the Chinese restaurants found in LA and Asia, they weren't wrong!! You know this restaurant is anauthentic Chinese restaurant when the comes out super fast. Also looking at their food photos, you can see that the noodles andmeats have beautiful charred edges, and when tasting the meats or tofu we enjoyed a wonderfully fried dish with crispy shells,welcoming you to enjoy the succulent interior! With these details, you can tell the wok skill of the chef, a real shifu! Thesalt and spicy Japanese tofu was a really great dish! The tofu was fried extremely well and had crispy exteriors. Thecombination with green chili and onions gives it multiple layers of flavors, spiciness, sweetness, and saltiness. Excellentdish! The Peking style pork chop has all that one expects of it and is executed to perfection. The flavors were balanced anddelicious, and the pork is fried to absolute perfection. Once again, it is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Thishighlights the skill of the chef and the adequate fire from the wok! The beef Chow Mien was so good. The thin egg noodles aredeep fried first to make it crispy and more it's charred edges! Then the beef with gravy is poured in top to make it softer.Personally I like a mixture of crispy and soft to give it texture. I am so surprised why this place does not have more reviewsbecause it definitely should be a favorite of all who loves great Chinese food, Cantonese cuisine to be exact! This place maynot have the best location, but I will make my way out here anytime... The selfish part of me want this place to remainanonymous as if demand goes up, price too :-p But, what the heck, this restaurant is to good to be hidden; they worked andworked on their craft, they deserve attention! Honestly, this restaurant makes food that matches great restaurant in Asia wit Read more
The server was extremely rude. Dined in and the waitress was terrible so I did not leave a tip. As I was walking out the... waitress said: “this is America, you no leave tip! You leave tip in America. I call police because you leave no tip”. Mybill was 20$. The food was undercooked as well. I never right reviews, had to this time. Read more
