Came here on a Thursday evening with a colleague after work; She suggested it, because we were nearby. The place is pretty small but wasn't crowded as there was only one other table dinning in during the time we were there. I'm really not a Chinese food fan, I agreed to come here because there were also Japanese items on the menu. To drink I got a bottle of cloudy sake. I ordered the money bags, even though it had no description. Money bags are a symbol of good luck and fortune, and are often eaten during special occasions, I got this to celebrate the New Lunar Year. I would compare this dumpling like fried appetizer to a spring roll, stuffed with similar ingredients plus pork. It was served with sweet and sour sauce. I also ordered the fried gyoza, I appreciated that the textured was actually crispy but the soy sauce it came with tasted like it was straight out of the container; they could have spiced it up with garlic or ginger or chives..etc. My coworker ordered the general tso. She traded me a piece of her chicken, it tasted good but those sauces are way too sweet for me, big reason why I'm not a fan, it's just not for me. At the end we were given a small plate of fruit with fortune cookies. What a nice surprise. The prices were very reasonable here. Probably the same price you would pay for fast food but better quality. If you like Chinese food, this is a good choice. read more

Reliable Chinese food. Lunch special in particular is a giant portion of food for an affordable price. Come here often and will continue to come regularly. Staff can also accommodate allergies including gluten free well. read more

The woman that they have answering the phone for delivery doesn't understand! English they should have somebody that speaks English so there's no confusing because she told me coconut shrimp and it's seven little fried shrimp for the order! It also took over an hour they told us 45 minutes read more

This is supposedly Crispy Beef Hong Kong-Style.... It's more like inedible mushy mystery meat! I was told that I cannot be given a credit to my credit card because I placed the order on their website that is managed by a third party provider! I was promised a credit on my next order. With food like this there is not going to be a next order. Now I know why I haven't ordered from them in years! The rest of my family's order was just about passable! Never again! read more

Great, reasonably priced Chinese food. The food was delivered very quickly, it was fresh and piping hot!

Stopped by today to order sushi take out... they couldn't have been nicer. Ordered the Dancy Girl roll with spicy tuna instead of spicy crab (kani) salad... $1 upcharge, no problem. Got it home and spicy tuna looked brown and suspect; tipped it out after 2 pieces. I'll definitely go back for the bento boxes and Chinese offerings, though... I think sushi is just not their thing! read more

Nice little sushi spot in Bulls Head Plaza. It's a Pan Asian spot, so they have other dishes as well. It's a cozy atmosphere, not over the top flair. Had the Black Dragon and Phoenix rolls. Definitely could had eaten more, but the summer's here, and this quarantine 15 is feeling like a 60 with the heat support your local businesses and enjoy their food! read more

Kam Pei - Black Dragon Roll, Phoenix Roll - Japanese Near Me - Stamford, Connecticut

Awful experience. Server was rude. Food tasted mediocre at best and it was very expensive. Do not go there.

The food is always delicious! The service is reliable and I always receive my delivery orders on time (usually a little early than expected!). Highly recommend! read more

Okay. 1. I think definitely add sugar to the Miso soup it's not something that I would ever imagine would be done but I guess somebody has to do it. 2. They add mayonnaise to the carrot ginger dressing 3. The quality and the price of the sushi don't match also the quantity really is skimpy. It is at best a cliche 3 star sushi spot in Connecticut in a strip mall. read more

3 stars only because I haven't tried many things at this restaurant as of yet. I'm in L O V E with their Vegetable Fried Dumplings. I always call ahead of time and my order is ready when I arrive. Friendly staff and great, fresh food? You can't go wrong! -Chels read more

Small cute Asian restaurant in a busy strip mall. I came for lunch and had the beef teriyaki bento that comes with soup, salad, rice, 3 piece California roll and gyoza. The salad dressing was sadly too sour and too salty and the gyoza was also lacking flavor. The beef teriyaki was OK and the California roll was fresh. The eel cucumber roll was good. The mackeral a la carte sushi was too sour but the scallop was nice and sweet. The service is nice and the location is clean. read more

KamPei is a small spot in a strip mall in Stamford. Great for lunch or takepout. The food was some of the best Chinese I have had in years. I split a Shrimp with garlic sauce and Sesame Chicken and both were excellent. My wife and son enjoyed the sushi including the sweet potato tempura rolls. And, the hot & sour soup was the best I can ever remember having. I would be remiss not to mention the attentiveness of our waitress. read more

5 stars for presentation, service and overall deliciousness. Ordered their Crystal Shrimp appetizer and their Aged Tofu both were delicious. Crystal Shrimp were hot, fresh so very good. The Aged Tofu was fried with a thin light batter .. scrumptious. Also ordered their fried gyoza and they were crispy, not greasy .. again so very good. My to go order was their baby bok choy, filet mignon to that I added extra ginger and Chinese Black mushrooms along with pork fried rice .. I have photos of all except my to go order .. simply because WE ATE IT AND FORGET TO TAKE PHOTOS. This restaurant is cute, quaint and the staff goes beyond to assist customers. Cannot wait to go back .. Cold white wine so good. read more

This place is pretty good. No major complaints. The food is average pan-asian. Prices seem fair. I see a lot of complaints about the food quality here, and while it is not out of this world, it does the trick for me... the edamame needs a bit of salt. The sesame chicken is reasonable quality. Never had a mistake on my takeout orders. I'll continue to go here. read more

We usually order from Kampei 2, but for location/convenience we ordered from Kampei last night for pick up. We ordered about $60 worth of food. First I found a hair in the ribs, then I found a bug in the chicken and broccoli. Needless to say, all the food went in the trash, and I won't be back. read more

Customer service was exceptional, very cheap for great quality Asian food....they also complete orders fast.

It should be actually 4.5 stars. Excellent Japanese and Chinese dishes. One of the very best sushi in town - really really fresh, good variety, reasonable prices. You can eat in, but great for take out as well. read more

What happened to this place? When I was a kid growing up in Stamford 15-20 years ago, this was the hip sushi spot. I visited my mother today in Stamford and ordered some takeout from here: Chicken Tempura + Two (2) Pieces Tuna Sashimi (just my order among a five person dinner order). The tempura didn't come with steamed vegetables over a bed spicy rice like the menu said, they didn't even include any tempura sauce. I got four long 'sticks' of crusty chicken that looked like four (4) miniature fluffy dusters in a plastic takeout container, and the taste wasn't far off either. As far as the Tuna Sashimi, I knew the color looked off but decided to bite into the first of two (2) pieces - YUCK! I don't know how or why I swallowed that bite. I guess instinctively? I threw the rest of that piece out (3/4) - the other piece of Sashimi went untouched, saved for this photograph, then saved for the trash. I wanted to take it back and ask someone there to eat it in front of me, or better yet feed it to one of their children - since they think it's good enough for me and mine. I never leave reviews for places EVER, this experience was that bad that I feel I have to warn someone. I hope I don't get sick from that small piece I swallowed, because it did not taste right. Check out the beautiful color on that sashimi in the photo attached to this review. Thanks for listening. Give your stomach a break. If you already drove there (to Bulls Head) grab a pie from Coalhouse Pizza a few doors down, it's not too late. read more

Kam Pei - Disgusting Tuna Sashimi - how can you serve this? - Japanese Near Me - Stamford, Connecticut

Kam Pei is probably one of the few restaurants offering both good Japanese and Chinese cuisine. The selection is huge, the service is good, the atmosphere is casual and the prices are great. For Chinese dishes, I highly recommend the General Tzo's Chicken because they do it right. They fry the chicken in pre-heated oil quickly to lock in the moisture. For Japanese, I recommend the Hulk Roll if you like avocado. read more

I find the food here hit or miss. Some dishes are good, others are bordering gross (Szechuan Beef, Peking Duck Crepe). My most recent order took 1.5 hours, when I called the restaurant was not at all apologetic. The food came cold. This restaurant is on par with the other Asian restaurants in town so I will never order from here again. read more

The worst customer service you could imagine for a pick up order. double billed and kam pei refused to issue a refund. Wasted 2 hours of my time to show that there online ordering system was wrong. I was treated like a criminal. No apology. Kam pei didn't accept responsibility. Stay away read more

2.5 hours still now food. Called and without asking who I was they said now worries your food is on the way. That was an hour ago! NEVER AGAIN! read more

My girl friend became very sick later that evening , Our best conclusion was the from kam pei as we had not eaten anything else that day ! Abandon hope all ye who eat here... read more

Been coming here for many years, probably eaten here 50+ times so needless to say I enjoy their food. A father and son typically manage the phones and honestly they both are polite on the phone, offer discounts when food is late, and apologize when they mess up an order. If you order delivery during a busy time, you will wait a very long time (2+ hours before). I have never gotten sick from their sushi, they don't pile on the rice, and its always tasted fresh. Their stereotypical Chinese dishes like sesame/generals is good, nothing to write home about. Their shrimp lo mein has lots of shrimp (I HATE being skimped on my shrimps). Overall: usually reliable delivery, open 362 days a year, solid service, and decent prices. They will continue to be my go-to. read more

Highly priced sushi that was not very impressive. I had a custom made roll that cost me $15.95 for just one roll. I have been trying to find a place that makes good sushi like my favorite restaurant in NC. I would always order the Nemo roll (tuna and avocado on the inside, wrapped with rice and salmon on the outside). Really nice size chucks of meat too! Unfortunately, I have yet to find a Sushi restaurant that can make this roll. Kam Pei tried to make the roll for me, but it was pretty horrible, and very very tiny for the price I paid. I will try this place again, but definitely not for the sushi! read more

Ran in on Tuesday night. I was craving miso soup. Grabbed a spicy tuna roll & added avocado. Staff was friendly & super quick. Also food came out very fast. I was happy. I took a menu back to my sisters & she doesn't do take out. I figured it could come in handy. Also like the fact they serve Chinese & Japanese. read more

Service is great. Food is mediocre at best, portion is very tiny, definitely not worth the price. I ordered shrimp and gallop from their lunch menu - only 2 tiny pieces of scallops and 2 medium size shrimps. Being a bean counter on food is a good way to drive customers away. read more

I've always been a fan of Kam Pei. Never had a bad meal here. I love their Bento Box meal special during lunch time; you get a little bit of everything to satisfy all your cravings for an excellent price! It's also super cozy inside, I love the decorations. read more

Kam Pei - Bento Box - Japanese Near Me - Stamford, Connecticut

Having experienced long delivery times from other chinese food places, we decided to place a pick-up order from Kam Pei since it's so close to our apartment. We ordered directly from their website which led us to the Eat24 app/website. It was easy to order and add in special requests like homemade spicy mustard. The pick-up time was set for 10-30 minutes which is a big window but the food was ready and waiting when we arrived after about 15-20 minutes after ordering. The gentleman who helped me very personable and friendly. We got: shrimp fried rice, chicken lo mein, crab rangoons, egg roll, BBQ spare ribs, wonton egg drop soup and General Tsao chicken We liked everything we ordered but the crab rangoons and the wonton egg drop soup. The rangoons were small, with hardly any filling. They got soggy and took on the taste of the shredded lettuce that they were packaged with. The wonton egg drop soup had chopped tomatoes in it, which was just weird to me. I've seen mushrooms in this kind of soup before but never tomatoes. The rest of the food was great, not as greasy / overly salted as other places we've tried. The shrimp in the fried rice were actually big, real shrimp. The General Tsao chicken was mostly real chicken, not a ton of breading. While the prices are more expensive, to us it's worth it to have better quality food and better customer service. We'll try delivery next time to see if their wait times are as bad as others have posted. read more

We have ordered from Kam Pei almost once a week, Including through Covid, in an effort to support local restaurants. Tonight (and this has happened several times) we ordered at 5:44 (online) with a delivery time of 6:42. After 2 calls it is now 7:27 and we were told it would be another 20 minutes. So a solid 2 hours after ordering. Completely unacceptable. And when we asked for a reason they said we are very busy so they are not understaffed due to COVID! Will not order from here again unless we pick up ourselves! read more

I'm pretty picky when it comes to sashimi so let me start by saying it was fresh and that's always the bottom line. However, the sake was too hot as was the miso soup. It's hard to judge anything fairly after you've burned your tongue. The salad was also disappointing: mostly iceberg lettuce with one tomato slice and one cucumber slice and water. Back to the fish, the presentation was decent and, again, it was fresh. I was neither over-impressed nor totally turned off. Service was prompt and responsive and the prices were reasonable so I'll probably give them another try. read more

Go here on occasion for their delicious hot and sour soup. Today I decided to order a special roll, hawaii roll and omg is it the tiniest roll I have ever seen! I thought it was a joke, a lunch special until I checked my receipt! I took a photo that I am looking on how to post, but the rolls were smaller than a quarter! I will never buy rolls from here again, a total rip off! Even Stew Leonards serves larger pieces read more

Miso soup is very good, very balanced. The pork fried rice, is super good! Worth the price.

Take out is always on time. Hot and accurate. Crystal skin shrimp dim sum dumplings are amazing. Soups are tasty and not too salty. Always reliable. Great sushi and sashimi. Hand rolls delicious light and fresh. Try salmon with avocado read more

Great Japanese restaurant in a busy Strip mall right on High Ridge. parking can be challenging specially during lunch, and this place is always packed during lunch hours with orders sometimes taking more than 15 minutes. The reason is really their quality Sushi, and Teriyaki boxes that makes this place so popular. If you want to have a good Japanese lunch and need a short break from your work cafeteria, this is a great place to go. I have never gone here for dinner so can't comment there! read more

Still an excellent place. Its been around for years...had a few down years...but recent experiences suggest- very good place. Chinese's food is above average. Sushi is better than average. read more

I don't get the hype. I've ordered from there twice so far and neither time has been all that great though I've only ordered from the chinese food side so maybe its the japanese side that's the exceptional part. The dumplings are small and rather bland - it's rare for me to find dumplings I'm not crazy about but their steamed dumplings didn't do it for me or their Schezuan wontons. The wontons had a kick that I liked but the consistency of the sauce was almost glue-y and made it unappetizing. The lo mein and sesame chicken were good but nothing to write home about. I do like the fact that they deliver, and they're pretty quick about it but there's a $20 minimum before they'll deliver dinner. Not too hard to reach that price though because their prices are expensive and they don't offer cheaper dinner combo meals like many other restaurants. read more

Great food and Atmosphere... A little tight for sitting, the service and food makes up for it..
