We have given them a try on about 3 occasions now. Never really happy with the food but we keep trying because they're the closest chinese restaurant to us. However this last time, all the food was so bland even the kids didn't like it. Classics like lo mein was not up to even average level. Maybe it was an off day but will not return if the bar is so low when we order here and it still misses the bar on occasion. read more

We had takeout from the Asian Kitchen tonight; my wife had Sweet-And-Sour Chicken and I had General Tso's Chicken. It truly was inedible. Our food lacked flavor and was very difficult to chew. Not a pleasant experience at all. read more

I give this place 4.5 Stars!! Had the best egg rolls of my life here. The hot and sour soup is delish but it could be a little more "hot" as in spiciness. The bourbon chicken and the seafood and tofu with black beans were very good. We are vacationing in Siesta Key and found this little gem. They use really fresh ingredients. Locals seem to frequent this restaurant. Would return here again! read more

Finally found a fantastic Asian restaurant in the area that makes fantastic food. Great quality and absolutely delicious. You hear lots of good reviews for a very average food in the area but I am a foodie and can attest to this place been fantastic. read more

I am very sad to write this review. My boys and I have been loyal customers for over 5 years. We don't have a lot of surplus income, when we do, we place an order every 3-4 months. I am no longer able to eat rice. Therefore, I placed a delivery order for Mu Shu Chicken. It was horrible. It tasted like lighter fluid smells. I called immediately and was told they couldn't refund me the purchase. Sam, the owner said he'd give me a credit on my next order, within a 2 week period. I explained that wouldn't be possible as we aren't able to order again so soon. His reply was he'd leave my i information for the next time I called. I tried calling in January but no one answered. Therefore, I called today. Our income tax has come in which meant we could afford to place an order, Today, I called and was remembered yet denied the credit. I could hear the owner in the background repeatedly saying, he gave me two weeks. Maybe some families can order every other week. Maybe some families don't mind paying for something inedible. We aren't one of them. Being treated with in a manner of disdain and indifference is not a business I will any longer support. read more

My wife and I just stopped in for a Christmas lunch pickup. The owner is such a cool guy. His food is absolutely most excellent! Please stop in and support this great local business! read more

I've only gotten carry out a few times. For the most part the food is great. So for me I judge an Asian restaurant based on the egg rolls since those are my very most favorite things. The egg rolls at Asian Kitchen don't do it for me but the rest of the food is delicious. Ordering without egg rolls is something I have to do if I wasn't good Asian food. read more

I'm basing my review on a single experience. I'm glad I found this little restaurant when I was looking for dinner after work. I tried the combination dinner plate with general tsos chicken, pork fried rice, and an egg roll. For starters $10 for all that food was a great value! More importantly, the food tastes fresh, the chicken was actual chicken breast (not mystery chicken), the fried rice was simple but delicious, and the egg roll was just as good! I will definitely be coming back :) read more

Asian Kitchen - General tso chicken - Asian Fusion Near Me - Sarasota, Florida

See all

I would give 10+ stars if possible! The very best ever by far! Very fresh ingredients cut to perfection. Even the beef dishes, the beef is tender and flavorful. The rice noodle options are wonderful, very thin or wide. The salt and pepper fried options are great and they add fried cilantro as a garnish. Very large portions and never greasy. Friendly staff and always grateful for the business. Prices are very reasonable. read more

The quality of the food was good but the taste was not. How can this be you ask? Quite simply for example, the broccoli was fresh but the General Tso sauce was bitter. The wontons were perfectly folded but the soup was bland. The dumplings were great but the sauce was wrong. Basically the cook has a sauce and the flavoring problem. read more

The best Chinese food I have had since moving to Sarasota from NY. Fresh and plentiful ingredients. Highly recommend! read more

I had the beef chow fun which I thought was just beef and vegetables. It looked so good from the Yelp picture!! It has wide noodles, beef, onions, green onions, and bean sprouts. It was good! The pan fried dumplings weren't as spicy as I have had but they were ok. They have various combinations you can get for stir fry. Next time I will try beef and mixed vegetables. For a little extra, you can get brown rice! Their website will not work with mobile phones so check their menu from a computer. They are hiring for delivery drivers so you can look forward to delivery in the future.! read more

First time trying Asian Kitchen. Was a little skeptical because I have had a few bad experiences trying Chinese food ! This place seriously was the BEST Chinese food I have ever eaten !! I had Crab Rangoon , Sweet and Sour Chicken and Pork Egg Roll !! Delicious !!!! The service was beyond exceptional !! I would Highly recommend Asian Kitchen !! read more

I've been disappointed by the Asian restaurants in this area. Starting with this one. Got the 3 meat Lomein and sweet and sour chicken. Horrible!! Usually children eat anything but even they commented on how bad this food was. Had no seasoning food was very bland. 25 bucks in the trash. read more

On a desperate search for authentic Chinese food around these parts , resigned to cooking more however Asian Kitchen stands out for reliable good food, quick service, and value! They're service is great and they are officially our go-to. Thanks for existing Asian Kitchen! read more

Even though there aren't any dine in restrictions in Florida, this place has chosen to leave their dining room closed. They have erected a small holding cell just inside the door with room for one person and they make you wait outside for your order. They asked me if I needed my receipt and I said I didn't. Still, he handed me the receipt and asked me to "fill it out." To me this meant add a tip, which I didn't. I tip when I'm waited on or when food is delivered, not when I order take out and have to wait outside for it. read more

Fresh. They don't skimp and honestly really friendly service . Will definitely be back for the must have egg foo foo yung

Awesome food, service!! Owner is extremley nice. Denise read more

Normally I might go with 2-3 stars but feel it necessary to offset these high ratings. In a word, bland bland bland. Oh, and disappointing.

Great little restaurant with a friendly staff and amazing food!! Really enjoyed the lunch menu - generous portion sizes - and the egg rolls!! read more

This has become our favorite spot! Due to Covid they've been safe with reducing to take out only but they have an ample menu with great portions. Great service! read more

This family owned business is really great! We have eaten here several times and always leave satisfied. For example, the other day, my wife brought home a few dishes and some egg rolls for us to eat. Since she is not an idiot, she remembered to make sure all of the necessary sauces were in the bag before she left the store, which they were, so no problem! If they had mistakenly forgotten the sauces, then my wife's effort to double-check the order before she left the store would have really paid some serious dividends! About the food itself: Not being a total philistine masquerading as a professional food critic, I appreciated that the snow peas were perfectly seasoned (I hate it when they are overly salty!) and that they weren't cooked until they were too soft. Let's face it: good Chinese food is made with crisp vegetables. We also had the fried rice, which was also cooked to perfection and contained PLENTY of meat. After all, it's "Pork Fried Rice," the implication being that the RICE is cooked with SOME pork, so as to impart a delectable pork flavor to the dish, which is a traditional peasant dish, so you wouldn't expect there to be much meat in it, in the first place. As far as the size of the actual pieces of pork in the rice were concerned, since I'm not a moron unfamiliar with writing in the English language I can tell you that they were neither too "miniscule," nor were they simultaneously "not enough little pieces." Yeah, I don't understand what I'm trying to say, either! English! It's hard! The egg rolls are great although someone who is a pompous, know-it-all, ass that fancies himself as a modern-day Auguste Escoffier might think that they were "weird." I don't know, they taste fine to me. Hell, that same person might complain about how he never receives FRESH Chinese mustard or duck sauce, and yet, no doubt, has never made any in his life (and really wouldn't know the difference in the first place). My family and I really like this place. It is run by a family that is trying their damndest to turn out some really good, somewhat authentic(!) Chinese food. Since I am a local and not a pretentious idiot from somewhere such as, oh I don't know, California, I appreciate their effort for what it is - a sincere effort to provide you with good food at a more than reasonable price. Nothing pisses me off more than some know-nothing, out-of-town jackass who flippantly reviews a small business (that they know nothing about) and gives them a lousy review. EAT HERE! read more

We were hungry and tired from house hunting all day. We just wanted to grab Chinese to take back to the hotel. Yelp led us to Asian Kitchen. Food was HOT (even after a 20 min drive) and we didn't wait long for our food order. Dining area and bathrooms were clean. Staff polite. Kung Pao Beef, BBQ pork fried Rice, & Orange Chicken were enjoyed by all. We will stop back when we move to the area next month. read more

I love this "hole in the wall" takeout restaurant. Although the sole desk/phone person had his hands full when I picked up last weekend, he remained pleasant and courteous; my phone order was prepared quickly (within 30 minutes), was hot, and neatly packaged. Nice menu choices and family meal combos. The food is consistently so good. I'm happy to have this restaurant close by for my Asian food fix. read more

My go-to for take out. Super friendly owners and fast service. Everything always tastes great and we've never had a problem with our order missing anything. They don't advertise this but you can get a free 2 liter soda with an order over $50. read more

I'm very surprised. I'm a very picky person when it comes to my food. Everything was excellent beginning from the phone call to place my order. The gentleman was courteous and highly professional. Reasonable prices and very flavorful food, I will definitely go back. read more

The food is great. My wife got bourbon chicken and I got the general Tso. Mine was cooked perfectly, nice and crunchy on the outside and tinder on the inside. The sauce was perfectly sweet and spicy. The service was great! read more

Excellently prepared, fresh, and authentic ( by our standards) Chinese food. Gen Tso chicken was juicy and lots of chicken.

It's hard for me to review Chinese food since I am from NY which is the Chinese food capital of the nation. My husband and I decided to order some take-out one Friday night after going months craving Chinese food. The food was good, not exceptional, but it was tasty. What I did enjoy was that the food wasn't overly greasy and didn't taste heavy in salt seasoning, which in return I was able to consume and not feel sick or nasty after eating. I don't order take-out often, but I would consider ordering from here again versus the other businesses in the area. read more

Excellent food! I have eaten here twice, and inside! Clean, no ants as the other woman reviewer mention! Was clean, friendly people working hard. Food was excellent with both visits! The best I have had since I moved to Sarasota 1/05/15! Other places I don't care to mention! I live alone, otherwise I'd have them deliver! read more

Awesome food and freindly service. General tso was awesome. Very clean. The crab rangoon was great as well. Definetly will be back.

Food was super fresh and crispy! Huge portions. Kind staff. Quick service. Will definitely be eating here again!!

We ordered food to be delivered. It was our first experience with this restaurant, but had heard many positive comments about it. Now we know why! The food was fresh, tasty, not drowned in heavy sauces. A wonderful meal!! The menu itself is a hint of what's to come. I got the grouper & eggplant Szechuan style. Delicious! We will DEFINITELY return! read more

Excellent Chinese! And more unique offerings than the typical Chinese restaurant. We enjoyed everything we ordered.

Definitely worth the 5 mile - 15 minute drive! With many other Chinese restaurant choices near where we live, we chose Asian Kitchen for our take out order based on other Yelp reviews. The positive reviews were very accurate and we all know that's not always the case. Everything we got was delicious. We will definetly be returning as this is our new Chinese food destination. Thank you so much for friendly service and yummy food!! read more

Under New management to this place. It looks much better than before!! I went there last week for a quick lunch. The food served quick and fresh !! Great price and nice service! I ordered a lunch of mongolian beef with pork fried rice. It also come with a homemade made Egg Roll!( it was the best egg roll I ever had)! If you haven't try it out please do so! I am definitely will be back!! read more

Best General Tso in Sarasota. The chicken was tender and not chewy or hard like other places in town. The service was amazing as well, the staff was friendly and helpful. Definitely going back! read more

I'm disappointed after reading such good reviews on Yelp. In my opinion the food was just okay. We had Orange Chicken, General Tso's and crab Rangoons, which were really good. The portions are huge but the food lacked flavor. read more

Hands down the best I've had in a long time! Friendly and great service! The food was delicious! I will be back soon!

Order delivery from this location and was pleasantly surprised on how good the food was. Delivery time was a bit slow but what place has a delivery time less then a hour on a Sunday night. The crispy duck was good usually takeout duck isn't from my experience. There honey chicken was hot and crispy the honey was given in a separate container it was pretty watered down. The rice was ok heavy on rice light on other. But I will order from them again. I would say one of the best Chinese takeout places in Sarasota read more
