    62. Chicken with Mixed Vegetable
    Joe H.

    Gross! I ordered chicken with mixed vegetables. The chicken tasted old in giant pieces with a tough leather like texture. I spit most of it out. Sauces were good. This place needs to reduce the size of their pieces of chicken and broccoli as well as improve the quality of ingredients. I recommend avoiding this place.

    Dim Sum Menu
    Justus R.

    Simply amazing Dim Sum. After a month traveling around China I can say 'The Kung Fu' has excellent authentic Chinese food. If you're used to Americanized Chinese food, I highly recommend trying their Dim Sum shared small plates. We went on the weekend and the service was wonderful and very helpful. Pro tip: avoid tripe, chives, and durian if you are new to Chinese food.

    Egg Custard Bun
    Haydon L.

    I am a Chinese American living in Lansing temporarily for school, originally from Florida. I have been to Hong Kong before and am always on the lookout for authentic Dim Sum. This restaurant so far is the only place I have tried Dim Sun in the area but it tastes really good, very close to authentic (if not there already!) I have ordered most of the steamed and fried menus (but none of the baked menu items) and they have all been tasty. The only reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars is because I ordered one of my favorite desserts, Dan Tat (蛋撻) or "Egg Tart," which I have had fresh from a Chinese bakery back home in Tampa, and the one from The Kung Fun tasted a little grainy rather than the gelatin texture it's supposed to have. It didn't taste bad, but it didn't taste fresh or authentic. Otherwise, very good dim sum experience if you are looking for something in the Lansing area! Note: They do Dim Sum made to order, not on carts. Food usually comes out within 10 minutes of ordering though.

    Chicken in black bean sauce
    Irina G.

    The place has no ambiance but perhaps it's expected in a college town. Menu has a great variety to my surprise. Service was friendly and fairly fast. Food was ok until my daughter found an ant in her broccoli noodle dish. If course, I asked them to remake that. I was told that since organic broccoli was used for the first time, they didn't realize it had ants. First time or not my daughter asked me not to make a big deal out of it and patiently waited for it to be remade. We did order a lot of food and I expected at least that particular dish would be taken off our bill but it wasn't. Oh well..not sure I'll be coming back.

    Szechuan mini hotpot as of April 2022
    Giovanni L.

    I have ordered the Szechuan mini-hotpot 3 or 4 times here, and it is by far the best Chinese food I have had in my life. The quail eggs are rich and buttery, and the fish falls apart on the spoon and is fresh every single time. Overall, this place has very authentic recipes, amazing service, and great atmosphere. I used to be a regular in the Chicago Chinatown restaurants when I lived there, and these chefs could take over down there and compete in any environment. This place is not often busy, but I think that only reflects the marketing because the food is top tier. It is the hidden gem you have been looking for. Food I have tried: I thought the Chonquing fish was excellent, and loved the almond chicken and scallion pancakes. The fried rice is not bad at all, but ask for something authentic for an out of this world experience. I haven't written a review in years, but got the app just to leave The Kung Fu my highest possible recommendation.

    C7. Thai Spicy Basil Chicken
    Allison R.

    I really enjoyed my first experience at Kung Fu. I ordered carry out through Yelp/Grub Hub and the process was smooth. I really liked that they offered an American and Traditional menu, and their website made it easy to browse different options using their drop-down menu. I played it safe and tried the Thai Spicy Basil Chicken with white rice and a vegetable spring roll this time, but there are so many other traditional items I hope to try in the future. Everything I ordered was great and the portion size was filling. Definitely adding this spot to my favorites list!

    Chef special!

During the summer, there are tables outside, and the inside is not too big but cozy. The vibe is trendy and just cool. Small bar and beer menu. Music plays in the background and the place is very clean. The staff is so friendly and attentive. TVs play sports or other shows. I ordered the jerk chicken and jollof, husband the beef stew and jollof and son ordered the chicken and pineapple jollof rice. Food was tasty, but can't say it was 100% West African. It lacked a little more spices and I would say less heat. They have a hibiscus drink that is delicious, I would go back for that drink. My son commented too little food for the price and I would have to agree.

My boyfriend tried the jerk chicken and Nigerian jollof rice and I tried the goat meat with Nigerian jollof rice. Both were really good. The meat was flavorful and tender. The goat portion wasn't as much as the jerk chicken, but I managed. The rice was soft, tasty and plentiful. We sat at the bar and the service was great. We ordered some signature drinks from the menu as well which were good and unique. They were a little sweeter than what we're used to, but overall the experience was a great one. I would highly recommend.

Fries are my preferred style and very good, but slightly undercooked by about 30s. Buffalo sauce is nothing to write home about, passable, classic commercial taste. Lemon pepper rub is perfect.

The staff working were not helpful, rather, they were unwelcoming, and somewhat judgmental as they stared at me making my food decision. The staff need better training on customer satisfaction. Outside of that, I had high hopes for the Mac n cheese considering how much it was advertised. TERRIBLE. Have you ever had frozen pre-packaged Mac n cheese? I'm about 85% sure that was exactly what I was eating. The saving grace was the "awesome sauce" I had on the side. The garlic Parmesan wings were crispy and enjoyable, but lacked flavor. The sweet chili is a copy-cat Asian Zing from Buffalo Wild Wings. Personally, I don't think I'll be coming back to this wing location. I'd much rather go to a local Buffalo Wild Wings.
