    12 Pack of Bao

    Very disappointed- dry and flavorless bao. Ordered a variety and couldn't tell the difference between any of the except the wheat veggie bao.

I usually come here for dim sum, and it is upsetting for me to say that my husband and I should've chose somewhere else to eat for dinner. For dinner, we ordered fried rice and chow fun. Those two main entrées were okay. You can't really mess up those two fillers at an Asian restaurant. We ordered scallion pancakes- they came out soggy and soft. Not even crispy like how they usually are. The flavor wasn't there either. If I wanted microwaved scallion pancakes, then I would've bought them from the store and made them myself. My husband ordered the short ribs- they were bland and tough like rubber. It had a funky taste to it that he couldn't describe and he had to force himself to swallow it because he didn't want food to go to waste. I ordered the chicken feet- this is one of dim sum's signature dishes and I am so upset I didn't even get to enjoy one of the dishes I always order. It was dry and the flavor wasn't there. The service was fantastic. They checked in on us and made sure our water was filled. The timing of the food coming in and out was fine. The ambiance was inviting. There was a sense of urgency and I appreciated that.

    Tucked away in a small corner of Lenexa, Monkey King Chinese BBQ & Noodle Restaurant feels like one…read moreof the most authentic Chinese spots in the Kansas City metro area. Their menu consists of a lot of dishes, and some are quite unique .. you don't usually see items like bird's nest dishes at most Chinese restaurants around here except for maybe Bolings. Me and my husband visited on a Saturday night around 8 pm and really devoured our meal. The menu can feel a bit overwhelming at first, but you honestly can't go wrong with stir fries at any Chinese restaurant. For appetizers, we ordered chicken egg rolls, which were hefty and filling. For the main course, I ordered the chicken in black bean stir fry, and my husband got the shrimp Kung Pao chicken stir fry. We paired both with steamed rice. The black bean chicken was rich and earthy, with that deep, slightly funky flavor from the fermented black beans. It was very umami, salty and complimented nicely with the fresh, crisp vegetables and well-cooked chicken. I really liked it. The shrimp Kung Pao was spicy and tangy, with perfectly cooked shrimp (the fried shrimp covering was chefs kiss) and crispy veggies. Overall, we really enjoyed the food. The egg rolls were about $4 for two pieces, and the stir fries were around $17+ each. The portions are quite large compared to other places in the area, so the pricing seemed reasonable. For 2 main course dishes your bill could easily reach up to $40. Otherwise, The restaurant was clean, the staff was kind, and service was quick. It also wasn't too crowded when we visited. I would rate the service 4/5, mainly because we had to ask for silverware, condiments, and tissues separately. The food, though, is definitely a 5/5. Highly recommended! I will definitely return to have more dishes like beef chow fun, the soups and last, but not least BIRDS NEST!!

When I was a kid it was because I loved Chinese food and this is where my parents would go, and now as an adult it's mostly just nostalgia. Over the years I've found other places I like just as much, and some places in town that do certain dishes better, BUT there is just something about Bo Lings that feels comforting and that je ne sais quoi will certainly keep me coming back. This location in Overland Park is the closest to my house so it's the one we order from the most. They recently got into the delivery game which reintroduced them to me now that I'm in my kid era and very much too tired to strap two little kids into the car to pick up food when I can pay to have it come to me (I know I know kind of lazy but that's life!). At any rate, we ordered from here earlier this week and the moo shu was exactly how I remembered, I love that they make their own pancakes in house and they still are IMO the best ones in town, and the crab rangoon still slaps. Something else I love about Bo Lings is that they do a good job at staying consistent across all locations, which I imagine is not always an easy feat. At any rate, if you are craving Chinese food in OP Bo Lings will not disappoint!

    I truly wanted to love Bo Ling, but this was one of the most disappointing dim sum experiences I've…read moreever had. We came as a party of seven and spent roughly $300 on dim sum and additional dishes, giving us a broad look at the menu -- unfortunately, very little of it was enjoyable. The noodle dishes were outright bad. Both the seafood pan-fried noodles and the beef chow fun were so aggressively salty that they were completely inedible. These are staple dim sum dishes that should be comforting and balanced, yet they tasted like someone dumped an excessive amount of salt into the wok, ruining any chance of flavor. The shrimp noodle roll was especially shocking. We ordered three plates, arrived early before the restaurant even opened, and the dishes came out cold -- not lukewarm, not barely warm, but cold. In over 40 years of eating dim sum, I have never been served a cold shrimp noodle roll. This alone speaks volumes about the lack of care or quality control in the kitchen. The char siu bao was equally disappointing. The bao itself was poor quality, and the char siu filling looked old, dry, and unappetizing, as if it had been sitting around far too long. When the egg tarts arrived, it became clear this meal wasn't going to improve -- the crust was underbaked and doughy, completely missing the crispy flaky texture that's expected At that point, it wasn't even worth taking food home. We left without packing anything because so many items were simply not edible. If there was any positive at all it was the har gow and the shrimp and chive dumplings -- the only dishes that met a basic standard. If you decide to come here, those are likely your safest options. The service was very good and attentive, which honestly made the food even more disappointing. Another strange note: this is the first dim sum restaurant I've ever visited that charges for tea by the cup. Everywhere else I've eaten dim sum -- and that includes China, Hong Kong, Macau, Philadelphia, New York, San Francisco, Dallas, and Chicago -- tea is either complimentary or charged by the pot. The tea service here felt oddly executed and out of place. I wasn't expecting high-end dim sum in Kansas, but I was expecting fresh, properly cooked, warm food. We drove many hours specifically to try this restaurant, which made the experience even more frustrating. Overall, despite good service, the food was unacceptable. This visit was a complete letdown, and I would not return or recommend it.

(And that's not a typo folks) They're light and crispy and have an abundance of Salmon in them! Lucky's is also known for their dumplings and especially the Chicken Masala and the traditional pork. The Masala Is just a burst of flavor in an incredible Asian Indian fusion. The traditional dumplings come with both a Ponzu and spicy mustard sauce and like the rangoons, they're perfectly crispy on the outside and soft and warming on the inside. I washed everything down with a refreshing Fall-oma (mezcal, tequila, spiced pear) and "Rich Orchard Affair" (gin, spiced rum). The waitress was extremely nice and she took the time to go over all the restaurant week items to try and tempt our palletes. The restaurant is easy to get to, It has a nice easy going atmosphere with tables or booths available along with a little bar you can sit at. The place is always clean whenever I've been in
