I have to say we visited Orlando, FL and wanted to try another place and glad we came across this place. Nice and clean inside, Everyone was nice. The food was amazingly good and light. This place is on my list for next time. read more

Love everything we ordered from soup dumplings to pan fried dumplings, tofu and duck noodle all amazing. The vibe was just perfect with the whole soup dumpling theme. Service was great. Highly recommended if you are in the areas for Disney or Universal Epic read more

I wish we were local as this would quickly become our new dinner spot. We had the pork soup dumplings, F1 which was a spicy beef noodle soup, a chicken ramen stir fry dish, scallion pancake with braised beef and also a knife cut noodles chicken dish. The scallion pancake was my favorite thing that I tried as it was the perfect balance of chewy, savory, warm, and sweet from a dab of hoisin sauce. Our server was incredible and patient as he helped us navigate the menu and the interior is cute and spacious. read more

Was in the mood for dim sum, we found Kungfu Kitchen on Yelp. Inside is nicely decorated and spacious. The staff was friendly and attentive. The food was ok, the dumplings weren't overly tasty. Everything was good, but not spectacular. If I'm in the area again I might go back and try other things on the menu. read more

Shout out to Chris W for this amazing recommendation. We've come to Orlando often but usually it's to go to Disney. This place is very close to Disney, but is not on Disney property so even though Chris has recommended this place for a year, we've never taken the time to go. Also, the idea of long wait with kids was never that appealing to me. This time we had a kid free weekend because we were going to an Orlando Magic game so I made a point for us to try this restaurant. At 1 PM on a Saturday there was no wait, so I think the huge crowds have died down. Literally everything we tried was amazing. If I had to rank it, I'd start with the stirfried Ramen duck as my favorite. The Ramen is so much better than what you find elsewhere, the noodles were absolutely delicious. The duck was moist and fatty. I also loved the soup dumplings with chicken. The chocolate one is intriguing, but the table next to us tried to order it and they were out. So if I have the opportunity in the future to try it I will. The scallion pancakes with beef was phenomenal. The beef puts it over the edge. I actually loved the wood ear mushrooms. They were a light and refreshing, I wish I had someone to share it with, but since my husband wouldn't eat it, I actually ate the whole dish. The steamed chicken dumplings were also delicious, but if I had to give up one dish, that would be it. Basically you want to come here with a large group so you can eat everything. Service was quick and friendly and the restaurant is very clean. Parking is a breeze because there is a huge parking lot since this is in a strip mall area. I'll definitely come back. read more

Chef Peter Song, an actor who immigrated from China, was determined to bring authentic Northern Chinese cuisine to the U.S. Five years ago he opened the first restaurant in Flushing, New York. (baozi) from the Jiangnan region of China, especially associated with Shanghai and Wuxi. It is traditionally prepared in a xiao long, small bamboo steaming basket, which give them their name. Xiao long bao are often referred to as a kind of "dumplin" long noodle. Literally, lā, (拉) means to pull or stretch, while miàn (麵) means noodle. In the Lanzhou style, the dough is worked aggressively. It is pulled in straight, quick, tugs with no twisting or waving.

Literalmente, lā (拉) significa tirar o estirar, mientras que miàn (麵) significa fideo. En el estilo Lanzhou, la masa se trabaja enérgicamente. Se estira con tirones rectos y rápidos, sin torsiones ni ondulaciones. #followformore @mrs.foodie read more

Wow. 5 star Chinese food in Orlando. The noodles are so fresh and it makes all the difference. Dumplings were delicious. I ordered on Uber Eats. Packed with care. I wish they would have provided soy sauce. Wasn't a big fan of their dumpling sauce, very vinegar tasting. I asked for hot oil, which was terrific. Enjoy. read more

My daughter chose this spot while we were near our hotel on a one night stop in the Disney area. This was the right choice for sure. The whole plaza seems to be Asian or Asian inspired restaurants and shops. I am always a bit weary about these places because of the proximity to tourist spots, but I was wrong. It is very cute With a nice statue outside for an instagram shot. Our server was super friendly and made some great suggestions. We tried all sorts of things. I'm have been on a very strict keto diet for the last almost 9 months and I blew it up in the first 10 seconds. We started with the scallion pancake with braised beef and some xiao long bao. Both knocked it out. My wife and daughter both got stir fried noodles with chicken, one knife cut, one ramen. I had the braised beef soup with chili oil. It out me up in the best way possible. Please try this spot, they have great reviews for a reason. We will definitely stop again in the future. read more

This place was okay but I probably would not return. We arrived and there was a wait time but we were seated pretty quickly. There are tables that are bigger in the middle of the restaurant, so you might be sitting with other guest with a space in between if your party is small. We ordered the beef ramen stir fry and it was amazing! We also ordered the chicken soup dumplings and they were just okay. I wasn't overly impressed with them because they didn't have much flavor. The service was just okay. We also didn't like that our food didn't come out at the same time. It was confusing because we never had the same server for anything. There are multiple workers there so we never knew who to ask anything to because of this reason. Overall, it was a good experience but just once is enough for me! read more

Kungfu Kitchen - C3.Beef Stir-Fry Ramen - Dim Sum Near Me - Orlando, Florida

It's rare but sometimes we get cold days in Florida and sometimes you just crave for something spicy and hot but unfortunately that's not what we received here as our food was barely what I could call warm! So to clarify 2 of the 3 items were warm while the dumplings were super hot! The spicy beef soup with the knife cut noodles would have been outstanding had it been warmer as when I get soup I expect it to be piping hot not luke warm and leaving more to be desired the soup as whole was good the flavor was there the noodles were yummy and it was pretty good for the most part. Our shrimp and beef noodles were also warm they seem as though they were sitting for a bit before we got them and this was on a slower day so I don't know what was up with that but had they been hot they would have been outstanding as it had nice peanut sauce flavor and we're just yummy! The pan fried dumplings were by far the best thing we had as they had an awesome flavor to them they dumplings were just as you expect them to be texture wise. Overall this meal let me looking for hot food which is the reason why I wouldn't come back here again as with soo many yummy Asian options in the area I'd rather just go there next time! read more

Last night my family and I went to Kung Fu Kitchen to celebrate my son's 15th birthday. We were excited to try it, but the experience was a bit of a mixed bag. After checking in at their kiosk, we ended up waiting over 45 minutes for a table. The restaurant itself is very small, which definitely contributes to the long wait times. There were also two large parties taking up most of the seating. Once seated, the tables are extremely close together--you really feel like you're sitting right on top of the people next to you, which made it a little uncomfortable. That said, the food is really good. This location has a nice assortment of dumplings and quick bites. We ordered the scallion pancakes with beef, which came with BBQ sauce and were honestly delicious. We also had pork bao buns and a chicken noodle bowl, and everything tasted fresh and flavorful. Service was just okay--nothing terrible, but nothing memorable either. Our waiter never came back to check on us or ask if we wanted refills. We also ordered dessert, but after we finished eating we were told the waiter never put the order in, so we had to wait another 15 minutes. Unfortunately, that kind of took the fun out of ending the night with dessert for a birthday celebration. The bathroom was somewhat clean, but the trash was overflowing, which made it feel like staff wasn't paying close attention to detail. Overall, Kung Fu Kitchen is a good option if you're looking to try something different and enjoy solid food. However, there are plenty of other great spots in the area where you don't have to wait nearly as long to sit down for dinner. If you plan on coming here, be prepared to wait--they don't take reservations unless you have a large party coming it seems. read more

Kungfu Kitchen is decent for flavor and the pan fried dumplings are delicious but both main dishes I received were lukewarm which was a bit disappointing. I did come on an afternoon when it wasn't super busy. The spicy beef with knife cut noodles flavor was delicious. The spicy sauce was very tasty if it had been hot, it would have been amazing. The waitstaff are fantastic. Never leaving a drink empty and constantly there if you need or want to add anything to your order. Everything is made to order, which I like. I also enjoy the chill atmosphere of the dining room. If I return I will definitely be getting some other dumpling or bao bun options. Those seem to be the best items on the menu. read more

My favorite place this year. I gave them a try once and then visited 3 weekends in a row from there. The restaurant is cleanly, the whoever happens to be hosting is always helpful and the servers are kind, conversational, and helpful. I've tried quite a few items from the menu and I haven't had an issue with any of them. The soup dumplings - fire, the steamed dumplings - fire, the hand cut noodle stir fry - fire. I've had the scallion pancakes with and without the beef - fire. Radi and Marco are awesome guys and add to the experience. I will add - I typically visit earlier in the day and have never had a problem with wait. Usually seated immediately. I did visit on a Saturday evening though and there was a bit of a wait, but nothing horrible. I've visited the other location and while the food and menu were good too, it wasn't quite the same. I definitely prefer the I-drive location more. read more

This was the best solo dinner in a long time. The Crab & Pork Soup Dumplings were magical flavor bombs of joy.

The Taro Puffs are the perfect way to end a meal. I wish I could take this restaurant home with me. Looking forward to returning soon. read more

Came to KungFu Kitchen with a friend after an event nearby, and I'm so glad we did. We started by splitting the chicken dumplings, and they were absolutely amazing. You can really tell they're handmade, from the texture to the flavor, and the dumpling sauce paired perfectly with them. Even the presentation was super cute, which made the whole experience feel a little more special. For my main, I had the beef ramen and it did not disappoint. Everything was flavorful and well-balanced, and the noodles tasted freshly pulled and made, which made such a difference. You can tell there's real care put into the food here, and it definitely shows in every bite. The ambiance really pulled everything together. As soon as you step through the doors, it feels like you're transported into a completely different space. It's brightly lit, clean, and thoughtfully designed, with details that really set the mood without feeling overdone. I especially loved the TV screen showing how the noodles are made, it added such a cool, immersive touch to the experience. Definitely a spot I'd come back to, especially to try more from the menu. read more

After a massage wanted good food & Yelp did not disappoint. The service was quick, soon as we sat down our waitress came over with water for our table. We ordered the chicken buns , pork buns, scallion pancakes and the chicken ramen noodle cut dish. The chicken buns were flavorful and yummy. The chicken ramen dish was my favorite, reminded me of New York chicken lo mein lol. It was fresh, flavorful and perfect amount of everything. The scallion pancakes were also great. Crispy and the sauce it came with added a nice teriyaki flavor. Overall 10000/1000 I'll definitely be back! read more

Beautiful restaurant interior! Service was quick. XLBs were deliciously flavored, skin is a bit on the "thicker" side compared to other XLB places (iykyk) but nonetheless the broth and pork filling was great! Would've been better with the authentic ginger and vinegar vs the solo dumpling sauce. Enjoyed the knife cut noodles and wonton soup. Great quality dumplings!! Overall a great place for dumplings and noodle soups! Authentic and flavorful! read more

We visited kung fu kitchen again, and my goodness this place certainly holds up! This time, we got the pork soup dumplings, bok choi and mushroom buns, scallion pancake, crystal shrimp dumplings, Peking duck buns, and steamed shrimp and pork dumplings. As always, the scallion pancakes were excellent. I think the crystal dumplings were my favorite thing. The soup dumplings definitely held up and were as good as I remember. I don't know that I'd get the duck buns again since they were quite sweet. I love this place and I think I'll always come back. One thing, I'd love a slightly larger beer selection. Their drink selection is pretty modest for those who can't drink caffeine. read more

This is hot spot in the Orlando area. The place has constant long lines. We waited about 30 mins on a Sunday evening. The host was very friendly and very apologetic for us waiting (not his fault). Once we got seated, our waiter was also very friendly and very attentive. We had the pork soup dumplings. One of the best we have had. Very soupy with lots of flavor. The wontons were amazing. Very tasty and again with lots of flavor. We also had the shredded beef with chili pepper knifed cut noodles. This was good but could use a little bit spice. Was on the blander side but ok. Probably would skip this next time around. But definitely will be back! read more

Last nignt we came for my son's birthday dinner since he has been on a dumplings and buns kick lately. We had only been once before, but that was when they first opened. Going in, we knew there would be a wait being that Saturday nights are busy. Check-in for the waitlist is done on a kiosk and we waited about 45 minutes for our table. We were seated in between a table of 4 and table of 2. Tables are pretty close to eachother, so you can hear lots of conversation. We placed our order once our server came and I let him know that the taro puffs we wanted last. He said he would put that order in later. The chicken ramen noodles and scallion beef pancakes came out first and were eaten pretty quickly. Both dishes were very flavorful and the beef in the scallion pancakes was cooked just right. We waited an additional 10 minutes before our steamed pork dumplings and pan fried pork buns came out. They were really hot when they came out, so hot that my husband had dropped one on the floor. We let our server know just so he was aware it was under the table but nothing was done about it. It was also at that time I asked for more water since he never came back to check on us once our food came out. Once we finished eating, we waited a while again before one of the other servers stopped by to see if we were ready for the check. I let her know we were waiting on some taro puffs which apparently our server forgot about. I appreciate her checking in on us as it seems we were forgotten. It was just frustrating having to wait each time. Be prepared to wait on weekends. For the amount of restaurants in the area, I'm not sure we would return as we could find the same food and better service elsewhere. read more

Came here with friends after a day at EPCOT. I had a lot of small bites earlier but didn't want to miss out on the Xiao Long Baos here. My husband and I ordered the pork XLB, scallion pancakes and the crystal shrimp dumplings. The food was great. It made me fuller but it's worth it. Our server was attentive and quick. Overall it's a solid spot to bring friends and family. Lots of shareables, but they have full dishes too. read more

This was my first time trying Kungfu, and it was a very enjoyable experience! My favorite dish was the street noodles--they were delicious. The eggs were a bit overcooked for my preference, but everything else was flavorful and well-prepared. The chicken steamed wontons were a standout--so juicy and tasty! The service was excellent; the servers were attentive and quick to take care of us. The restaurant itself is spacious with nice décor, though the lighting felt a little too bright, which gave it more of a casual vibe. Parking can be a bit tricky since the lot is shared with other businesses in the plaza, but overall, it was a great visit and I'd definitely come back. read more

We stopped at Kungfu kitchen on a Monday evening on a whim and finding it by driving through the plaza. I'm glad we took a chance. It was my favorite dinner while visiting Orlando. There was a little bit of a wait (10 minutes) but it was well worth it. Servers were friendly and helped us pick out dishes. The place seemed pretty casual, but very nice inside. I ended up with the vegetable noodles and chicken soup dumplings. The flavor and the hand pulled noodles made the whole dish a perfect pairing in my book. The chicken soup dumplings were hot and delicious as well. We will definitely make this a staple during any visit to Orlando. read more

Everybody was kungfu fighting.. the urge not to order more food! There are so many options here at Kungfu Kitchen, all delicious and fun in their own ways if you're a foodie you'll want to just try one of everything on the menu. Alas, we definitely did over order even for a group of 3. Couldn't be helped to a point- the steamed dumpling buns were probably my favorite due to the whole experience of eating them a certain way. Make sure you have your dumpling spoon, a bit of soy sauce on it, poke a whole in the dumpling them slowly slurp/ eat the thing. Salty and tangy and delicious. They have some amazing dessert puffs too that cannot be missed out on. The pumpkin ones were decent but the taro ones- oh man, we almost ordered another set to go because they were so dreamy. They look so unamusing from the outside, just brown bread with some seeds on top, but inside they are doughy and soft and sweet and melt in your mouth. Even the whole atmosphere here was so nice, it's a clean and well decorated restaurant and adds to the fun. Your taste buds will surely be kungfu fighting after a visit here! read more

Still 4-5 stars. Everything we ordered were excellent. Knocked down half a star this time because of service. The restaurant was not that crowded at 5:15pm. We waited a long time before anyone sat us down. There were clearly not enough wait staff. There were more wait staff later on, but I felt like they were all running in circles without direction. No one came by to check on us and add water. The patron next to us complained about a missing dish. It was quite a mess. Hopefully the staff can get their act together. The food is really good. read more

4.5 Stars We come here for the Pork Xiao Long Bao and the Hand-Cut Stir-Fried Noodles (Shrimp). They have other stuff on the menu, but the hand-cut noodles and the soup dumplings are the star of the menu. We've also tried the noodle soup with hand-cut noodles with duck and a few other dishes, but we found that the duck we got that day was a bit too bony. The broth was super flavorful, but I prefer the stir-fry noodles. Be sure to ask for the chili oil (but be careful because it packs a kick). If you come a little before 6p, there's usually not a wait, but be prepared to wait a bit if you come around peak dinner hours. Service is always fantastic and the servers here are fast and friendly. It's also super well decorated and I thought they did a great job including Neo-Chinese elements. read more

If soup dumpling restaurants were pop stars, I would divide three popular franchises that I've frequented (Din Tai Fung, Kungfu Kitchen, and Ugly Dumpling) into three tiers. Din Tai Fung would be Michael Jackson--the undisputed legend. The precision, consistency, and refinement are world-class, and every bite feels like it was rehearsed a thousand times before hitting the stage. Kung Fu Kitchen sits comfortably in the Justin Timberlake tier. It may not redefine the genre the way Din Tai Fung does, but it delivers confident, well-executed performances across the board. The soup dumplings are flavorful, the appetizers are well executed, and the menu shows skill rather than gimmicks (try the knife cut noodles). You can tell this place knows what it's doing, even if it's not aiming for absolute perfection. It's reliable, polished, and very enjoyable--especially when Din Tai Fung feels like overkill or isn't available. At the lower end, Ugly Dumpling is more like Nick Jonas--fun, accessible, and fine for a casual craving, but lacking the depth, technique, and memorability of the others. It gets the job done, but you're not going to be thinking about it days later. Overall, Kung Fu Kitchen hits the sweet spot: a strong middle ground between legendary mastery and casual convenience. It's the place you go when you want quality soup dumplings without needing a once-in-a-lifetime experience--and that's a compliment. Orlando is fortunate to now have two locations of this Long Island based establishment. read more

Must get the taro puff. It was so soft and flaky!!! We waited till the crazy hype died down, wasnt't going to stand in line. Went on a Sunday around 1pm. Scored a table right away without the silly wait. Of course you have to get the pork soup dumplings. Also did the crab dumpling as well. Bok choy with mushroom bun and the taro puff. They didn't have the pig ear which was a bummer. Everything was delicious. Service was ok, they came by to refill our waters a few times. Would recommend. read more

Located just outside of the Disney area, this is a new spot that opened up not too long ago. It was packed and there were several people waiting for a table but we got sat right away (2 person party). Since this is located in a strip mall style area there is a huge parking lot. There were plenty of options on the menu, especially when it came to the dumplings! The soup in the soup dumplings was really flavorful. My favorite item and definitely the most flavorful were the Peking duck buns. The dough was perfectly pillowy and sweet, which was a nice contrast to the savory duck in the middle. Service was ok, a little slow but no complaints since it was a Saturday and super busy! read more

Some of the best dim sum around! I've been here several times since it opened and have never been disappointed by any menu item. You really can't go wrong with any of the dumplings, ramen, noodles, etc. The food here is great quality and pretty affordable! The service is always fast and friendly and the decorations inside have some nice touches. It's a fairly small restaurant, so there can be a wait, but I don't think we've ever waited more than about 20 minutes for 2. They do also offer takeout, and separate the broth from the noodles so that it doesn't get soggy. I'll definitely be back many more times and highly recommend checking it out! read more

Stopped in for a quick lunch and it was delicious. The both was well balanced, the spice level was great, peanuts and beef it was really good. The noodles seemed like they were more like spaghetti noodles than ramen noodles, but I'm no expert. The setting was lovely. I had several servers taking care of me. I was trying to eat quickly because my car was charging on the Tesla chargers. Their doggie bag was amazing, I may keep it to use for other things. read more

I love the bright atmosphere here! It offers an elevated vibe while maintaining a comfortable casual setting. The service is overall great, though food pacing was a bit off (one of us received food about 5 minutes ahead of others). The menu offers a good variety, mixing traditional with modern and the claim of the hand made ingredients for some dishes definitely comes through in taste. Pricing is reasonable, especially after receiving recognitions. I enjoyed that they offer various noodle options with and without broth, perfect for those who may not be in the mood for soup! It's definitely worth visiting, and I'm confident you'll be satisfied (and feel full). read more

Check in at the kiosk when you arrive--super easy and efficient. We came on a Sunday evening and were pleasantly surprised by the very short wait despite a packed restaurant. Service was quick, and the staff were friendly and attentive throughout our meal. Favorites (in order): 1. Scallion Pancake with Sliced Beef - perfectly crispy and flavorful 2. Beef Stir Fry Handcut Noodles - great texture & good flavors 3. Steamed Chicken Xiao Long Bao - juicy and disappeared quickly. Also really liked the Steamed Chicken Dumplings -- everything we tried was tasty and well-prepared. The only letdown was the Shanghai Spring Rolls. You get just two small rolls for nearly $8, which didn't feel worth the price. I'd skip those next time -- feels like a high-margin item. Ambiance was pleasant. My daughter commented on how much she liked the comfy, U-shaped chairs. Overall, a solid meal and great service. We'll definitely be back (minus the spring rolls)! read more
