Restaurant Kung Fu is described as a small, cozy, family-style spot with warm, attentive service and strong value, where dumplings, dim sum, spring rolls, and shrimp dishes are praised for freshness and flavor. The food is generally delicious and affordable, with large portions and a wide range of options that make it easy to try several items, though a few dishes are noted as overly salty or garlicky and one beef with broccoli order was criticized for imbalance. Takeout and late hours are common themes, with many reviewers appreciating the convenience and consistent quality across visits, even as some say hours or availability can be unclear. The atmosphere is welcoming and unpretentious, and the staff are repeatedly described as friendly, contributing to a sense of a homey place where regulars would return. Overall, the reviews sketch a dependable budget Chinese option with generous portions and approachable prices, best for a quick and comforting meal, while acknowledging occasional menu gaps or changes that have affected perceptions of quality.
À éviter absolument. J'ai mangé au Kung Fu hier soir (Général Tao & Dumplings) & j'ai fait une intoxication alimentaire.
Quelques heures après le repas, j'ai été pris de douleurs abdominales atroces qui ne s'arrêtent plus, j'étais faible, mal à la poitrine etcc, la viande n'était pas cuite
C'est extrêmement décevant & surtout dangereux. Quand on voit certains commentaires mentionnant un manque d'hygiène, je regrette vraiment d'y être allé.
Nous étions 3 personnes, nous avons commandé 4 plats & il en avait assez pour 6. Dumpling, mets chinois, tout était délicieux & très bon prix & le serveur très agréable & gentil.
Service was great. Food... not so much. Ordered beef with broccoli & it's more like broccoli, onion with beef & overpowering flavor of garlic from a jar. It wasn't good at all. Neither of us ate it, we ended up taking it to go & it ended up in the trash unfortunately. The fried dumplings were okay & the prices are reasonable however I won't be returning.
Everything was perfect, one of the best Chinese food i have tried. The place is small & cosy, more like family place. The prices are really democratic. We were talking shrimp wonton soup with egg noodles, dumplings with pork & cabbage, dumplings with shrimp & pork. Highly recommended
Delicious & affordable! We drove all way from Nova Scotia & live upstairs apt for a few days. Really happy that there is a restaurant we can have dumplings downstairs

A place like this being empty feels almost like some kind of crime to humanity (then again having the space to myself felt rather nice.) For starters the service was immaculate, both men who helped me were incredibly nice & answered all my questions. They also didn't get frustrated with my inability to choose but rather gave me all the time I needed. I specifically would like to note that even though I was one of the only people there, they didn't slack off on service. Only hiccup was a mistaken dish but it was handled relatively quickly. The place was clean, the workers were kind & I have no complaints. I even saw them deal with a disgruntled delivery person with grace.
Now down to what really matters, the food!! OMG these were THE BEST SPRING ROLLS I HAVE EVER HAD. Tbh the spring rolls stole the show, hands down the moment I'm back in Montreal, I'm heading here first & ordering like 15 Lol!! I thought they were so crunchy & so flavorful, it shook me. Mapo tofu was spicy but not overbearing,everything inside was cooked to perfection & it was definitely a hefty & delicious serving. I paired both these with a phenomenal bit of shrimp dumplings & some warm sake that had my appetite ready to go & my tummy warm Lol.
Funnily enough I walked PAST this place wanting to go somewhere else for dinner, that place was unfortunately packed & by the grace of God this was right across the street. The world works in mysterious ways but it put me right where I was supposed to me. The food was so good that I ran (more like waddled) back to tell my friends & we ordered again for takeout the next day.
Sake: 7.5/10 mild flavor but still held that nice sake smoothness.
Spring Rolls: 1000000000000/10 absolutely 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 it was so good that I wish I had bothered to take better pictures of it. Taste are subjective but I really enjoyed these spring rolls
Shrimp dumplings: 8/10 perfectly shaped & beautifully made. Plenty of shrimp inside, only had soy sauce to go with it but I almost wish I had a sweeter sauce option. Still amazing & I really enjoyed it.
Mapo Tofu: 8/10 very distinct flavors, isn't for everyone but is still delicious. Spicy but not overbearing.
(Not pictured but ordered the next day)
Shrimp Pad Thai: 9/10 , I had to eat it the next day so I'm giving this review based off of having to reheat because I was late to eating it.
Chicken dumplings: 8/10 personally don't love chicken dumplings in general but these were so flavor, great alternative for those who don't like pork or shrimp.
You don't find many places that are not only affordable but still manage to to be delicious But this easily fit the bill in every way. If you want a solid Chinese restaurant, without the gimmicks, without a crazy long menu (compared to many places I've been to) but still delicious options, this is it.
It was so tasty. Got Shanghai noodles with chicken & steamed chicken dumplings. Very nice server. Great prices. Great portions. Comfort meals. Very tasty. Highly recommend.
The food is amazing & budget friendly.
They have a lots of combos if you want to try different things. Also, their dumplings are amazing. The atmosphere could be a lot better, but I highly recommend to try this place out.

Quite an enjoyable meal! The lunch special offers excellent value-it included a main dish & a choice of soup, either wonton soup or hot & sour soup. The wonton soup featured shrimp wontons, & it was absolutely delicious. I loved the stir-fried beef rice noodles-the flavor was incredible, with perfectly stir-fried ingredients. The fried dumplings were amazing as well. At the end of the meal, they even gave us fortune cookies & fresh orange slices. They also served water infused with lemon, which was a nice touch. Everything was fantastic!
3,5 ⭐️ Le service était rapide, mais on ne nous a jamais proposé quoi que ce soit. Les dumplings étaient excellents. Par contre, les brocolis étaient BEAUCOUP trop salés, c'était immangeable. Même chose pour les crevettes sel & poivre. Bref, nous n'y retournerons pas.
Tried the shrimp dumplings & shanghai noodles 4/5 noodled 5/5 shrimp dumplings Honestly I wished the chilli oil was better to make the whole experience unforgettable & to cover up for the noodles But all in all it was good
Updated 2024.10.25. Arrived late on VIA train, & searched Google maps while on the train that would be opened at midnight & Restaurant Kung Fu came up for Chinese cuisine. Walked from the train station. Brightly lit interior, clean. They offer set menus, but I had my own ideas of what to get & it ended up costing the same. Ordered a small wonton soup, steamed shrimp dumplings har gow, steamed pork dumplings siu mai, broccoli with Chinese BBQ pork instead of beef, steamed xao long bao, Tsing Tao beer. Don't order too many dishes. The food didn't take very long before it started appearing. We were pretty full. Their xao long bao wasn't all that tasty nor appealing. The wonton & siu mai could have been improved with the addition of shrimp & mushrooms, & powdered dried flounder for their wonton to improve the complexity of taste, like improving from one musical instrument to a quartet.

Quality-price-quantity ratio is 5/5. Portions are huge & overall tasting good. Dumplings are not top notch. The atmosphere could be improved a bit. I will return when I will be too lazy to cook.
Aug 2024: Basic ambiente, food acceptable with concessions. Dumplings okay, but fried tofu nr. 87 comes hard like a grilled bread, with only few vegetables & hardly any sauce. Do not order 87. Sake carafe for 9 CND $ very okay. Food prices in the lower range for Montreal. Therefore restaurant is recommendable, except fried tofu nr. 87... Staff was friendly, no complaints, & gave out wifi password upon request.
Portions & flavour were great for everything I ordered: peanut butter dumplings, Siu mai, fried pork bun, friend pork sticky rice beignets, marinated beef, & ginger chicken. The only comment I'd make is I'd prefer the sauce for the chicken be thicker so that it would stick to the fried chicken.
First time I tried it wasn't very good. General Tao chicken was the worst I've ever had. Squid was just ok. I'll give it once more chance, With different menu item hopefully they make dumplings better.
