First time eating at this place, and they said on sign Chinese and Canadian cuisine, I thought good…read moremy daughter doesn't like Chinese she can have Canadian cuisine, no, because when they do buffet there is no menu for Canadian cuisine and they didn't have any Canadian food at buffet except two kinds of squares. And as far as the buffet goes there wasn't much options. So my daughter had just 2 fortune cookies. You think they would have some Canadian options or even offer her something that was Canadian. I thought that was not right. Also it was so uncomfortable in there, and dark. The food was not that warm either. So we took our daughter to Dairy Queen. Iwe will not be returning to Kao.

Finally.. A decent spot to get authentic food in Kentville! For some reason, this cute town is…read moretrapped in a time warp with no good real food until now! REAL, authentic sushi is a major upgrade for this little town. It's made fresh daily and they're on the main drag so it's easy to park in Town Square around the corner, out front or really on any side street since parking is free in this town. Just be mindful of HOW and WHERE you park as there is a local bylaw officer who makes his rounds with a measuring tape, camera and ticket book! The place is tiny and is pretty much take out only. Most items are in a cooler ready to go and the prices are great. Owners are super friendly and you can also call in special orders. This place is quite popular so things sell out QUICK! If you don't want to be disappointed, call ahead to check what they've got left for the day. Absolutely worth checking out and a very welcome addition to the town!

The 'meat' in eggrolls was unidentifiable, the hot and sour soup was canned broth and chilis, the egg foo yung doused in tasteless gravy.

Our usual go-to for Chinese food is closed on Mondays so we decided to try China Village instead…read morefor take out. Finding a menu online proved to be the first challenge. After much searching we found one, but it was small and difficult to read. We noticed right away that China Village doesn't sell spring rolls, in fact there are only 3 items on the appetizer menu. We settled for egg rolls, and Bo Bo Wontons, as well as General Tao Chicken, Szechuan Beef, and Mushroom Fried Rice. We were pleased to hear it would be ready in 10-15 minutes... our usual haunt takes up to an hour! Once we got home and broke out the food it quickly became obvious why the wait time was so short. The mushrooms in the rice appeared to be canned. The Szechuan beef reminded me both in texture and taste of the boil-in-the-bag beef dinners my mother used to buy when I was little. In its defence, there was a little bit of chili heat added, but not enough to redeem the factory-made taste of the sauce. The General Tao Chicken was more like boneless buffalo wings. The sauce was heavy with something resembling Tabasco, and I don't know how you make deep fried chicken so dry! The portion sizes and prices at China Village are decent, but I'd happily pay more for less if I could have authentic flavours and freshness. There was very little about this meal that tasted Asian. Blindfolded I'm sure I'd have guessed I was eating bad pub food. If you're looking for a cheap way to fill up quickly, China Village might be your spot. If authentic dishes, flavour, and fresh ingredients are on your radar, you should probably keep going, because you're definitely not getting any of that here.

I ordered $97 worth of food, which was only that high because I gave them a 15% tip, because I'm not a jerk. When I picked up my food, everything seemed fine. I got in my truck, and as I set my food on the seat next to me, everything fell out of the bag. The paper bag was wet, and ripped through the white plastic bag. I don't know if this is on purpose or if they're really that inadequate at packing!! Now, as I am about to post pictures of the mayhem that ensued, it's actually heartless that they wouldn't even give me a RAG to clean it up. I asked for a pail of water and a rag, and they lied to me, and said they didn't have any rags in the back!!! They could only give me paper towels. They tried to hand me one small, balled-up piece of paper towel!! Obviously, knowing I have to go home to my husband, I asked for my money back, and they wouldn't give it to me. Then I called them and told them they need to pay me back or I'm taking them to court. The owner told me that if I had a problem, I could call 911 in as snotty tone as she could muster!!! I am good to people, and everybody who knows me knows I would never treat somebody like this. We are absolutely disgusted, not just at the poor customer service but their lack and UTTER absence of humanity!!! Especially since the waitress herself had even witnessed how bad it was and told me that, that does happen sometimes because it's very hot. I would like to add that the waitress was SO nice and this is not her fault, but the owner is a hateful person who clearly doesn't care about other people, and cannot take accountability for her own mistake, as apparently she was the brain scientist who packed the food. What a hateful, snotty FOUL PUTRID DEMONIC TROLL of a woman. Her karma is coming for her, and similar to my food I paid her for that went on the floor, her karma is something that she will not be able to swallow.

The service was really good and friendly as well. The menu has indicators on spice level as well for people who are sensitive to spices (me).
