    Definitely falls in the "3.5" category of Chinese food aka perfection in Chinatown. Amazing food, crazy good value and service is what you'd expected in Hong Kong. Super good clay pot & Cheung fun galore, honestly can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Just be aware there's only one toilet and this place gets busy

    We came here for late night eats and loved that this place was still open. We ordered a clay pot dish, noodles, and spicy wontons and this pandan toast. I did wish the wontons were a little spicy and saucier. Everything else was great. I would return to try more items off the menu. Food came out fast!

    Fish congee
    Kathleen S.

    My family and I went to King's Kitchen for a Cantonese-styled Sunday breakfast. Big fans of the location on East Broadway, we were delighted that the quality and service of the Mott Street location was on par. While definitely more expensive than other versions of the same food in Chinatown, King's Kitchen's congee and rice rolls in a clean and well-lit restaurant were still part of a lovely experience. The fish congee was quite large and had a generous amount of fish, although the fish itself could have been cooked longer for a softer texture. My kids loved the fried cruller rice roll (nearly anything fried tends to be a hit with them), while we adults liked the egg and lettuce rice roll (if a tad bit predictably bland). That said, the service was excellent and attentive, with our waitress gamely accommodating our rowdy kids. We would definitely return to try more dishes.

    Salt fish with minced pork clay pot!!
    Nita W.

    They have the clay pots! This is their second store right on Mott street and it has been a long time I had the salted fish and minced pork clay pot. My mother use to make this and it just reminds me of my childhood. I sent a photo to my brother and his response was "bring me one". The crispy crunchy rice on the bottom of the clay pot is the second highlight. The chef appears to be certified and his certificate is on display inside the restaurant. I forgot to take a photo of it. The interior is really nice and clean and the bathroom is a good size too- not in the "basement". IYKYK. The Chinese New Year parade was happening while we had lunch so it was like having a dinner and a show. Can't wait to comeback and eat here again.

    String beans

    I am going to this location 3 stars because the all the dishes we tried just seemed off compared to the east broadway location. 1.) the clay pot rice with preserved meat only had the preserved pork belly. I assumed preserved meat meant a combo with the sausage and pork belly but there was no sausage. I may have ordered incorrectly in Chinese. Other than it being very confusing what comes with preserved meat, the rice was barely crispy. It was obviously just "fried" with oil and had no browning on it. 2.) the 3 meat combo we got had bbq pork, roast pork, and duck. The rice was cold and hard. The bbq pork was dry and flavorless. The roast pork had decent crispy skin but the meat had zero flavor. The duck was fatty but in an expected way. It is also a little off putting that they serve this in a bowl. It's not soup or noodles. 3.) the truffle soup dumpling had no distinguishable flavor to them. They ran out of regular soup dumplings. 4.) the string beans were the best dish overall which is kind of sad given the other options in the menu

    Roasted Duck Lai Fun Soup ($11)
    Joelle L.

    Quick, delicious and reasonably priced food and an option I'll come back to again when looking for roasted meats on rice or in noodle soup. Service here is quick and efficient but be prepared to have to share tables since they mostly have larger long tables which is typical for this style of restaurant. The menu is quite extensive so I know I'll always have something new to try. I got the roast duck lai fun noodles which were delicious. The duck however was fattier than I expected but I still got a good amount of meat and it was flavorful. Definitely want to try more of their menu and I'll be back next time I'm in the area.

    We continued our quest to check off this block of renovated Mott Street in Chinatown which was by now, thanks to social media, crowded with lines overtaking the side walk. At 1:30 pm on a Saturday, we caught the tail end of lunch time crunch, waited for a good 30 minutes before finally getting seated. I saw somewhere that the King's franchise has more than 250 locations worldwide. I didn't verify that but that's pretty impressive. The establishment's logo and advertising all featured claypots so claypot dishes must be their specialty. We ordered two items that were featured on their sidewalk menu: Preserved Meat Rice Claypot $12 and Kaya Pandan Toast $5. We added another preserved meat claypot with taros. The dishes came very quickly within 10 minutes. They looked stunning and inviting. There was a layer of crispy rice which you're supposed to scrape off as "treats", similar to bibimbap on a stone bowl. All good except I didn't like the texture of the rice. I couldn't recall if it was long grain or broken rice but I prefer stickier rice. Each bite felt too dry and airy instead of being more gripping and satisfying. The toast was nice and light. I never had pandan before. Aside from the green color, the taste was similar to the cream inside a Mexican bun. The place felt cramped overall. There were a few tables that were totally undesirable, with waiting patrons standing against your elbow. I only mentioned it because it didn't jive with the nice decor; it's more commonplace in an ad hoc setup. Speaking of which, if you have a party of 1 or 2, don't be surprised to put up with communal seating! Service was okay.

    The Menu

    Open until 2 AM. Yes ! This is my kinda place. Sitting at home, I had a sudden craving for wonton noodle soup. This is why I love love love living in NYC. Fifteen minutes later, I'm at King's Kitchen on Mott Street ordering off the menu. To my surprise, they have shrimp rice rolls - my favorite! The waiter was soooo nice and sweet - big smile ! One of the rewards of leaving a nice tip = seeing how happy it can make another person :) The shrimp rice rolls were good (pretty standard if I'm being honest). The soup portion was very generous - enough to share. The dumplings were a little salty but filling. Bottom line : If you're looking for a late night meal, King's Kitchen offers a convenient affordable option.

    It was alright. Their dishes are a hit or miss. I liked their Congee best! King's Kitchen has Brooklyn locations and the congee is consistently good. The Wontons and Noodle Soups are also good and standard, nothing special. I was disappointed about their chopped meats. I had higher expectations, but unfortunately I feel like they weren't as flavorful as other places. I also didn't like the Soup Dumplings, which had thicker skin than I'd like. Their drinks come in a plastic cup, which are nice to take with you on the go. Servers mainly speak Chinese here. Overall, you can find better food in Chinatown. If I had to pick, I'd rec the Congee and Wonton Noodle Soups!!

    Will N.

    I appreciate that they open late hours--rare trait for Chinatown! However I would go back out more for that reason instead of the food. Wasn't terrible but considering the neighborhood, I do think there are better options. Fairly large serving sizes. Was surprised they didn't have chili oil. Wish the Curry Noodles were less dry but I also wasn't too surprised.

    Food: So damn tasty! We got the 3 meat combo over rice, the preserved meat clay pot, wonton noodle soup, and pandan Kaya toast. From the top tier Chinese BBQ meats to the clean but flavorful wonton broth to the perfectly sweet kaya, the entire meal exceeded my expectations. I am dreaming about eating this meal again. And everything was so damn cheap! I love Chinatown! If there is one thing you should get, you can't miss the various meats. Service: We went at an extremely busy service time and it took a while to get our menus, but in traditional Chinese fashion, you just have to ask and be a bit more forceful with what you want. Every one was still very nice and accommodating. Although it was packed, I surprisingly did not have to wait long for a table, approximately 5-10 min. Many places in NYC Chinatown are cash only, but no need to worry about this here. They will take all forms of payment Ambiance: It blends a good style of modern with tradition. In many places in the area, there may be concern of cleanliness, but definitely not here. You can tell they run a tight ship. If you're around the area, just go!

    The latest kings kitchen location on the Mott street strip. Same quality of food and service as the east broadway location. Beef chow - the noodles are bouncy and chewy. I would order this again. Congee - classic comfort food Claypot rice dishes - many options to choose from. I usually go with the preserved meat. Perfect to pour soy sauce into. The heat from the pot gives the bottom rice a nice crunch Chinese bbq, their cha siu is full of flavor Their siu yuk is tendered with the perfect crispy skin

    Maria M.

    We tried it as a new place in chinatown and it was rewarding! Place is really busy- Food is good and prices are reasonable. Just the sitting area was a bit conjested-felt like ppl were sitting too on top of each other. Must try.

Dish highlights include the shrimp and chive dumplings, beef chow fun, and my personal favorite, the stuffed eggplant. Other items were a little bland, like the turnip cakes and har gow, and the pan fried shrimp noodles were awkwardly plated and made them difficult to eat. I also wish they had rice noodle rolls, which I didnt see on the menu. Really what pushed it to 5 stars to me was the service. We came as a huge group of 20, with a baby and stroller in tow, and they handled everything without so much as a grimace, just an outpouring of helpfulness. They sat half our group at a round table and the other half at a rectangular long table and also helped us navigate dietary restrictions, asking specifically who in the group had those restrictions. The menu is labeled too, so you know which items are vegetarian or gluten free. At one point our helpful server noticed we hadn't really touched that awkwardly plated noodle dish and offered to replace it with another. We didn't take him up on that as I'd find that wasteful but I thought that was so attentive and earned them a generous tip. The space is nice looking, and the food came out very quickly. We also didn't break the bank, even with plenty of drink orders. Dao's is an easy recommendation, especially when you factor in how seamlessly they handled our chaos.

I was browsing for places with scallion pancakes and I came across this restaurant. I saw they had a scallion pancake beef rook which I'd never seen before. It was fried and crispy on the inside with tender beef on the inside, that was slightly savory slightly sweet. I had the roll on its own, which made for a light meal, but it can also be enjoyed as a large snack. It was a little greasy, which can be expected, but not sure if I'd get it again. I did think it was innovative though. The most impressive thing about the restaurant was actually the space. I came to pick up my food and was surprised to see this beautiful place. The outside is unassuming and nothing special but inside has the aesthetic of an old Shanghai restaurant. It's ornate and slightly quirky. It's also really big, bigger than I expected. Even the bathrooms had traditional Chinese flare with the sliding doors. Definitely worth checking out,

It's also nicely decorated, which makes you feel like you're in China. It's definitely for a younger crowd with how loud this place gets.

Some of the most memorable dishes were the Mapo Tofu ($13.99), Hutaoli Roast Chicken ($43 for whole), Spicy Pot Potato ($19), Roasted Green Beans ($22), etc. All of the food is good, but definitely pricey. While the food also came out quickly, our drinks came out towards the end of our meal. It's a good spot for big parties as it never got too busy even on a Saturday night. They also have private rooms. The live music was fun, but also made it hard to have conversation.
