We researched and decided to look for this restaurant and it was easy to find. The place is clean and nicely decorated. Their restroom is clean and the decor in the front also touches the restroom. The waitress was nice. It took longer to get our food but we ordered a lot so understandable. The smell is so good. You can watch them do their prepping through the glass. Our soup was steaming when it arrived. Beef so soft and delightful. Shrimp fried rice is so good and fresh. The pot belly we ordered made us order more rice because the sauce was very tasty. We truly enjoyed our visit here. Thank you for a great adventure kungfu kitchen. Till next time.
Stopped by for a late meal, was craving dumplings and dan dan doodle. The dumplings tasted more like frozen one, and it had a weird aftertaste, was not enjoyable. The thai tea did not taste like the traditional/ normal ones you usually get at other places. The dan dan noodles was pretty decent, super spicy but not bad. The service could definitely be a lot better. The interior is gorgeous though, to be honest i think that's the only best part. But the neighbor customer ordered their main entree, looked pretty pleasing. maybe i'll give another try but so far, not great. ):
Ordered takeout when I was in town staying with some friends. I wasn't privy to knowing what we ordered but there was a smorgasbord of items. They were all amazing. My takeaway from this is either: 1. My friends have really nailed which the best items in n the menu are. Or 2. Everything on the menu has gigachad aura. When we walked into pickup the food, our host was immediately available with our to-go boxes. Everything was packed nicely and we received an appropriate amount of napkins, chopsticks, hot sauce etc for 3 people. She was smiling and overall the exchange was positive. Def would recommend.
My boyfriend and I went to China a few years ago and we have been searching for good Shanghai dumplings/pork buns in the area ever since. I saw they had them in the menu and that's why we came here for dinner on Friday night. It was not busy at all when we were there but they had a steady food pickup. In addition to the dumplings/pork buns we got the chicken soup dumplings and the string beans. Everything overall was pretty tasty. The Shanghai buns came with a serving of 5 - 2 of them were seasoned nicely inside and the other 3 were bland with no spices. Not sure what happened between those batches. The string beans were a bit salty but otherwise excellent. I did like the soup dumplings but would try something else next time. We will be back to give the buns another try and also to try some of the other dishes. The staff were all very friendly as well.
This place is turning out to be a family favorite. The food is consistently good and our server always looks to take care of us. There plenty of free parking so going here is no trouble at all. The setting is very casual. We continue trying new dishes but definitely have some favorites that are hard not to order because they are so good. Some favorites are the fried string beans and chongqing chicken. We recently tried the Dan Dan noodles, which were very good (but I think I make better). I loved the noodles themselves and there was a perfect amount of meat and sauce. My family really loves the mayo tofu.
I came to try the soup dumplings and left with pork buns. The pork buns were exceptionally good! Very soft, delicious and tasty! Soup dumplings were also tasty. I did a carry out order, so service was fast. And it's a cute little casual restaurant with ample seating as they didn't seem particularly busy with dine in customers
Was in the mood for Szechuan food so we came to kungfu kitchen. Got a lot of items to try which are pictured below. This included the Shanghai pan fried pork buns, spicy shredded pork with cilantro, pork soup dumplings, chongqing spicy chicken, spicy sliced beef tendon in chili oil, and cucumber salad. To be honest, there was not any dish that stood out to me. It was all fine but a little too pricy for the taste and the portion. Service was meh, there was not enough people working. There was only one waitress who was trying to run the whole entire restaurant, from dine in to carry out. Our order also came out not uniformly, where we got some dishes really early on and some towards the end of our meal. Ambiance was alright and it was clean. Overall, it's an okay place, I just don't think I would come again if they don't improve in service and taste.
Very quiet. The only people there again! Food is good and prepared fresh. Service was excellent but not over baring. A great spot for a quiet late lunch.
Came here for their soup dumplings. I thought the service was nice and the food quality was decent. I craved for better soup dumplings after trying the pork one here. The pan fried dumplings were better I think. I ordered the scallion pancake with meat but the server brought me just scallion pancakes. The decorations are a bit strange. There are Lego figures in the front window and a hand drawn wall. The chopsticks were wooden and seemed like they have gone through a lot of use. I was tempted to ask for disposable ones. There is plenty of parking right outside so that is convenient. There's a huge soup bowl looking sink in the bathroom.
It appears Kungfu Kitchen has pivoted to more authentic Chinese recipes. It is still rather expensive, as mentioned in my last review, but it is well worth it. The Pork Soup Dumplings are amazing. We also really liked Yuxiang Eggplant, the Dandan Noodles, the Fried String Beans, and the Scallion Pancake with Beef.
Still my No#1 place to go when I miss home! Amazing food and always tasty fresh every time we go!

Very clean establishment with located in a shopping center with plenty of parking. Very light crowd on Sunday around noon. Very authentic Chinese food. I LOVE the cucumber salad but it seems a bit steep at $10. I found the soup dumplings to be too oily but I haven't had too many soup dumplings before. The Chongqing chicken was fried perfectly and served with tons of chili flakes and cilantro. Extremely flavorful. Great for solo dining or with friends. read more

Recommend not ordering delivery. Dumplings burned. Shrimp with broccoli swimming in brown sauce. Have to play with food especially if using chopsticks; shrimp is breaded, tails on, tons of brown sauce. Doesn't resemble menu image at all. read more

My husband and I were looking for a new place to try but specifically soup dumplings, and found this place. The ambiance of the restaurant was not what we expected looking from the outside. I thought it was clean and seats were nicely arranged. Their menu is Szechuan so my husband was skeptical whether he was going to like them, but it was wonderful! The service was on point. I appreciate the server kindly explaining the dishes and giving us the recommendations. We enjoyed the experience. Willing to try again! read more

The soup dumplings here aren't that bad. Service is ok. There are plenty of seating available for large or small groups. They are a bit pricey for the food that's mediocre. read more
After reading the great reviews, we dropped by for a quick lunch. Omg. Delicious. Service was friendly, vibe was good, everything clean and welcoming. The food came out pretty quick, and we were blown away. Super fresh, super tasty, textures were amazing. Don't skip the green beans (cooked perfectly al dente) and the duck buns! read more
Had a craving for spicy chicken and the chongqing spicy chicken did not disappoint. It had the perfect amount of crunch, saltiness and spice that paired well with hot rice. Split between two people was the perfect amount! It also paired really well the their cucumber salad as it was vinegary and garlicy! It kinda reminded me of Grillo Pickles ifykyk The soup dumplings had a good amount of soup as it filled up the whole soup spoon! I do wish the soup dumplings came with ginger slices in the vinegar soy sauce but it was still really good! Service was friendly and patient! Would like to come back to try their other dishes! read more

We haven't been to kungfu since before Covid, wow has this place gone downhill. This was a solid 4.5 stars before..2 is generous now. Clearly not as popular as previously either - Saturday at 1 and it was empty! Way more workers than customers. The quantity of the noodles has decreased extensively, yet with increased prices. The noodles say "hand pulled", but are soggy with no resistance - definitely not hand pulled! The soup dumplings are also very expensive and taste has changed. Our pork dumplings didn't look thoroughly cooked and all we were given was black vinegar. No ginger, no small spoon to scoop the vinegar. We won't be back - shame, we were so excited about this place before. read more

Hate to post a bad review but there was a roach in my food. The service was not good either. I was spot at the door three times before someone came to welcome me in. The prices are reasonable and from what I tasted, the flavors were good. I was hoping for my new neighbor Chinese spot. read more
I wanted to love this place, but left extremely disappointed, and tossed half of my food. I ordered online and had someone run out to pick it up for me while I was at work, so I don't have anything to say about the location itself. My coworker ordered the braised pork belly and said it tasted overcooked, "mushy", and oily. We split an order of the steamed bun with pork belly and I will say that was the best part of the meal. It was decently filled and flags a good flavor. I ordered the Chongqing spicy chicken and a side of white rice. For the price of the food I'm surprised rice didn't come with it, but I paid the extra $2 for that. The chicken had an excessive amount of seasoning on it. It was so much seasoning that I couldn't eat the food. I don't think I'll ever return, but if I do it will only be for some more of those steamed buns! read more
A great Chinese restaurant for the area since you can't find similar types of Chinese food in the area unless you're in Rockville. We had about 3-4 dishes most of which we forgot to take a photo of because we devoured it so quickly. On the day we went, they were so understaffed, the 2 waiters were scrambling between the online orders, the tables and the kitchens. This is the only reason for the 4 stars. Otherwise, amazing! Would highly recommend. read more
we had been eyeing this place for a little while. The name of the restaurant kung fu kitchen screams a bit fast food to us. We prefer to eat authentic Asian cuisine. Good thing. Our first impressions were incorrect. This is authentic Chinese food. Let me correct... Authentic Northern Chinese food. You're not gonna get any fortune cookies here or much dessert. it's a small restaurant with a uniquely northern Chinese style to it... Almost Mongolian like. i'm not sure if it can accommodate terribly big parties. You might have to call in for that . We started with the chicken soup dumpling, and duck fried buns. I've had much better soup dumplings but this was probably a four out of five for me. The fried buns were amazing though the price point is a little high you only do two pieces for about $12. Our main entrées were the tofu, the braised pork belly. Mapo tofu was great. The peppers made my mouth and lips tingle - almost like it was vibrating. I feel like spicy. This is definitely for you. The braised pork was just out of this world amazing. My husband and I cannot stop talking about it. all of this comes with the mid price point - it's not fast food. Be aware that you do have to pay for rice. For the price of the entrées it really should be included in my opinion. Nevertheless, we will come back to try other items the wait staff recommended and to get a second go at that braised pork. because of the rice payment, I would like to take off half a star 4.5/5 although my rating shows a 5. read more

Stopped by today to celebrate National Dumpling Day and picked up an order of Pork Soup Dumplings. They did not disappoint, per usual, but I will say the way that they were packaged did not keep them hot/warm. Maybe a different container that holds heat a bit better for takeout would be beneficial. Still didn't stop me from chowing down on them at nearly room temp! They did have a new item on the menu that intrigued me. It is called Cilantro Egg Drop Soup w/Ground Beef or "West Lake Beef Soup", which I found out after a quick google search. I love the "traditional" Chinese take out version but figured I'd give this a try. Man, oh man! That first bite was amazingly delish and I wanted to throw the spoon down and drink it straight from the container! But, I have some kind of home training and refrained from moving forward with that messy idea. So, this soup has tofu in it and tons of beef and cilantro and uses egg whites. It's very filling and the broth is not salty like some versions of egg drop soup can be. It will be definitely be a staple for my to-go comfort food this fall! Stop by and give it a try now that the weather is breaking and it's officially fall! Enjoy! read more
First off I want to say that I really wanted to enjoy the food here. While the soup dumplings were excellent and were straight fuego, we did not enjoy the rest of the meal. The kung Pao chicken was sweet, never in my life have I had sweet king Pao chicken. The fried rice wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either, definitely a more traditional fried rice. The Chongqing Spicy Chicken to me was not what I expected. It's supposed to be a spicy popcorn chicken style. For me the Chongqing Spicy Chicken was way too crispy, and scratched my throat as if a rock was going down my pipe. Not sure if it was just cooked too crispy or if that's normal, but I did not enjoy. If you're coming for soup dumplings, that was delicious. The restaraunt itself and staff is very nice. read more
Overall pretty good. Favorite items are the XLB, pan fried dumplings, scallion and beef pancake, hand pulled noodles and we had a couple of specials that were also very good (crispy shrimp and Manchurian cold noodle). The Peking duck and pork buns were ok (not enough filling), the crispy Szechuan chicken was ok, as was the eggplant. Spicy cucumbers aren't all that spicy but very fresh and crisp. Cold tofu salad was ok. Wasn't busy when we arrived right when they opened but it was full when we left read more
