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.
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.
The price level impressed us, for a hidden gem in the downtown area. Try their snacks & small bites even if you're not too hungry. Very good surprise! We came with Asian friends & ordered a lot - the portions were big & dishes cost less than average! Attentive service as well. All tasty & well-done, it's worth another visit.
Great new Chinese food resto in downtown Montreal! So tasty & such high quality food ingredients that are obvious from the first bite! Service by Lily was top notch & very friendly. Hot & sour soup was awesome! Black bean sauce was excellent. Chicken was so tender, fresh & high quality. Finally, Chinese dishes that are not flooded with green peppers. I highly recommend trying Kung Foo!!
It was very nice to dine at this new restaurant! Food was definitely tasty & delicious. The staff was very nice to us too, & food came quite quickly. Definitely come & check it out!
We came for the dimsum but were greatly surprised by the quality of the other dishes! We bought some salt & pepper pork chops, & it turned out to be one of the best we've had. The yang chow fried rice was also very good! The har gow was, however, slightly overcooked, which led to it being a but mushy. The siu mai, on the other hand, was still slightly pink & could be cooked for a little bit longer. Overall, it was a great experience. The food was definitely tasty & very affordable, & the red chicken feet & fried wonton were perfect! The service was fast, the food fresh & the ambiance nice. We will definitely come back to try their other dishes.
Just had dinner at this newly open restaurant with my wife. I used to be a waiter in a similar restaurant back in my days so I ca mn make some comparisons. Portions: We ordered the combo F, which is supposedly for 2 people... we could not go through all the food they brought us! I think it was meant for a family of 4! Service: food arrived a bit too quickly at the beginning (we barely started eating our soup & they started serving the entree), but they readjusted the pace afterwards. Taste: I was surprised at the freshness of the food & it tasted amazing. Among all the plates that were brought, there was the classic general tao chicken. Too often, at least in my taste, there is way too much breading but not in this restaurant! It was light but tasty! Fried rice was also a positive surprise, not too heavy on soy sauce. Overall experience: I highly recommend this place. Small place, sitting for approx 25 people but does not feel cramped. A must try if you are around.
