Absolutely terrible food and service! Run from this place!…read more I went for the first time on July 8, 2026, to try it out for lunch. I had visited their website an hour before I went, to check their prices. They have Kung Pao Chicken listed for $7.95 on their website. The Shrimp Fried Rice lists for $6.50. Mongolian Beef lists for $7.95. Sweet & Sour Chicken lists for $4.95. These are NOT lunch specials. Egg rolls list for $2.50 per order. Beef Lo Mein lists for $4.95 on their website. But when I got to the actual restaurant, everything was $11 to $12. They deceive their customers, luring you in with false prices, and then gouge you when you get there! That is very unethical and shady. I purchased the following items: 2 orders egg rolls 1 Mongolian Beef 1 Kung Paul Chicken 1 Beef Lo Mein 1 Sweet & Sour Chicken 1 Shrimp Fried Rice I had told the woman at the cash register that I wanted "small" for the Mongolian beef, but she gave me large anyway. Then again I said "small" for the Kung Pao Chicken, but she said it only comes in large. I did order a large Shrimp Friend Rice, but that was the only item I wanted to be large size. She maxed everything out to charge me the maximum price. That insult, on top of the shameful fact that they lied big time about their prices on their website--it couldn't be more obvious that they are greedy and took advantage of me financially as a new customer. I waited for about 20 minutes in the waiting area by the front door for my order to go. I was born in 1967 in Chicago and lived there for 37 years, so I know great food. Here is my honest rating for the following items (0 being the worst and 10 the best) at House of Chong: 2 orders egg rolls = 0 (they use a flour breading, not egg roll wraps) 1 Mongolian Beef = 7 (average, not spectacular) 1 Kung Paul Chicken = 7 (average, not spectacular) 1 Beef Lo Mein = 4 (flavorless, not good) 1 Sweet & Sour Chicken = 0 (just terrible, awful) 1 Shrimp Fried Rice = 9 (the only thing I really enjoyed) For those 6 items they charged me $68. Going by their website menu pricing, my total bill should have been about $41 including the tax. The cashier asked if I wanted the credit card receipt and I declined, but she never gave me the actual receipt, which is separate. Now I see why, she ripped me off! I don't like being taken advantage of. Their food is lousy overall. I will never go back to this dump!

Anyhoo, it's apparently changed hands, looks completely brand new inside, has had a complete remodel & now, lucky for us, this new fab "Chen's cafe" has been built in the rear of the store. Also, two new parking lots have been built beside the store & a full parking area behind the store with a new side entrance that goes directly into the new Chen's Cafe with a new checkout just for the cafe. Every time we have visited, door dash drivers are coming & going out the new Cafe side door like a frisky stampede of delivery drivers on overdrive. Anyhoo, there is a lovely amount of mixed indoor seating arraignments, clean updated bathrooms & and a whole new fabulous menu posted online. They even have boba teas! We love the unsweet coconut milk with the boba. So hydrating & refreshing :) Chinese BBQ Banh Mi is superb as well as the whole roasted pig (only offered on weekends). Pork & Shrimp egg rolls are a must order. Yum Yum Yum :)... NOTE: A lot of the menu is not available yet as they have just opened. We are so excited about the new Chen's! The old business that was here was always my favorite till it went downhill & was put up for sale. Now I'm happy to report this new place has been totally updated & the New Chen's cafe menu totally slays with all my favorite dishes! They even have PEKING DUCK on the weekends! yay!!! :).... Happy Chinese New Year!!! Year of the Dragon! :)) Will return & often! Queen of Pirate'cola Approved!

Here is the completed review with your additional details incorporated:…read more I recently visited **Kalbi Ichiban** in Pensacola, Florida, located in the area of town where I grew up. It was good to return to familiar surroundings and find a restaurant offering a different dining experience. The interior is attractive, clean, and inviting. The restaurant also offers Korean barbecue, with tabletop grills built into several booths. It is a nice option for families, groups, or anyone interested in a more interactive meal. I went specifically looking for authentic Korean food. Having experienced Bulgogi while serving in Korea, it quickly became one of my favorite dishes. Most chain restaurants do not do the dish particularly well, so I decided to give Kalbi Ichiban's version a try. My waiter, **Carson**, was attentive, friendly, and provided excellent service throughout the meal. He checked on me regularly without being intrusive and made the overall experience even better. Carson receives five stars from me. The meal came with Bulgogi, rice, and a choice of soup or salad. I selected fried rice and started with the hot and sour soup. I also ordered a side of kimchi because, in my opinion, a Korean meal is not complete without it. The hot and sour soup was excellent. It had great flavor, was well prepared, and was easily one of the highlights of the meal. The fried rice was good, although nothing about it particularly stood out. The Bulgogi was tender and very flavorful, but it was wetter than traditional Bulgogi. Authentic Bulgogi is normally much drier, with the marinade cooked into the meat rather than leaving it with a gravy-like consistency. Even with that difference, the flavor was enjoyable. The kimchi was also very good and added the right touch to the meal. Interestingly, the hot and sour soup was spicier than the kimchi. However, different regions of Korea prepare kimchi in different ways, so the level of heat and flavor can vary considerably. Overall, I was pleased with the meal and would rate the food **8.5 out of 10**. After adding a couple of cocktails, I was also pleasantly surprised by how reasonable the final bill was. I would rate the restaurant **two dollar signs out of five for price**, making it a good value for the quality of the food, service, and atmosphere. Kalbi Ichiban may not serve Bulgogi exactly as I remember it from Korea, but it delivered a flavorful and satisfying meal. Combined with Carson's excellent service, the inviting atmosphere, and reasonable prices, it was an enjoyable dining experience and a restaurant I would visit again.

After reading some of these poor reviews posted for 86 Forks, it comes to my attention. Why would anyone finish their meal, pay for it, and then take the time to go online to post a bad review? Why not take the time before hand to ask what a certain dish or meal is - its flavor profile, spice(s), heat, etc.? We did ask the chef and she was more than happy to take the time to explain the dish's concept and let us taste prior to ordering. Read all the good and the bad reviews and ask yourself: 1. If unhappy with the dish, why clear your plate? 2. If not completely satisfied, why pay the bill? Why? Because it's simply not true. People like this are never going to be satisfied or happy. Never. Try 86 Forks for yourselves. Don't be afraid to ask the servers or better yet, ask the chef to explain the concept or allow you to taste something if you're unsure. Be adventurous and make up your own mind - you will not be disappointed. Please remember, this is not a Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Philippine, Italian, Mexican, etc. restaurant. Rather it is a fusion of the best flavors, spices, food pairings, and textures from all these cultures presented in a creative and distinct manner. Recommend the Bulgogi Egg Rolls and the Miso Cream Gnocchi & Edamame.

Will not be returning and a highly recommend you go elsewhere downtown. 1. Spare pork Ribs were frozen in the center. Opinion: They clearly heat up pre-cooked from the freezer. Sauce was phenomenal on these, if they are cooked thoroughly next time this could be an excellent appetizer. 2. Side of Bok Choy was also frozen in the center of the largest piece. Opinion: Heated from frozen and precooked. 3. Chicken Kung Pao Fried Rice was soggy, had zero flavor and was overwhelmingly salted. I would have preferred a 3.99 rice bowl from the freezer aisle in Publix over this garbage. 4. Pensacola Spritz cocktail was almost entirely sugar and tasted like a Shirley temple. Server was nice and ambiance was fine. Utter shame this slop steals business from local businesses that put in a respectable effort. (Comments above are opinions only based on a in person visit June 2026 and should not be taken as statements of fact. I have no way of knowing if the food is cooked from frozen. )

This place had almost 5 star rating with 8 reviews which was what brought us here. Service was excellent and friendly. We were here around 1:30-2 and there were a few others seated eating. They have an extensive menu and we only tried one app, 2 main and 2 desserts so based on just that we give an average 3 stars for everything.

That is frustrating to find out after you've arrived bc you have to wait vs just picking up your order and leaving (and referring to how most companies tell you via email they've had to cancel an item or an item is it of stock) and they generally want you to pick something else vs refunding. The location is clean, updated and welcoming, if you don't mind how dark it is. The staff is really laidback and they will just keep walking past you with nary a glance as you stand there by the order pick up queue.... After you got an email ~5 mins ago that your order IS ready for pick up.
