Nothing was good. The curry noodle was watery tasting. The egg plant was watery. The Pad Thai was super sweet and did not have a true Tamarind taste. The Drunken noodle lacked flavor and chicken. I'm not sure how the chef can think this is good! It was the worse Thai food I have ever tasted. The only thing half way decent was the fried appetizer platter which is difficult to mess up! I would avoid this place unless they get a new chef or revamp the recipes. Ambiance was lackluster. Half grocery store half restaurant and did not look clean. It seems the owners have given up. This place needs an overhaul!

I was a big fan of the appetizers like the edamame, potstickers, spring rolls, and the satay chicken. My only complaint was that the crab rangoon filling was overly creamy and lacked flavor. The curry was just the perfect amount of spicy. For dessert, the mango sticky rice was the perfect way to cap off a delicious meal. The waitress and owner were very sweet and welcoming. You can tell all of the food is made with lots of love.

It was nice to see my sushi being made fresh right in front of me, which added a level of confidence in the quality. That said, I did have a few concerns. The woman who took my order was visibly sick--her nose was running, and she kept wiping it with her hand before touching my car, which was definitely off-putting. Cleanliness and hygiene are so important, especially in food service. The sushi itself was good, though I wish the salmon had been seasoned a bit more to bring out its flavor. Also, the menu could really use descriptions of the sushi rolls, it was hard to tell what was in each one, which made ordering a bit confusing. Overall, it's a small spot that serves its purpose, but with a few improvements, it could be much better.

Eating healthy with the freshest ingredients is available here. Hardworking friendly owners that provide wonderful food at very reasonable prices make this place a diamond in the rough of Hammond Indiana. I find it fast and easy to order food that arrives promptly via the use of my food that one accesses the menu via one's camera after being focused on a QR Code on their dining tables. Likewise old school photo menus are available that one can read off of can be used to place one's order to a server as well. The place has expanded into the building next door to meet the needs of the demands of its very loyal customer base. If you're not one of their loyal customers, it's most likely because you haven't tried them yet. I would have posted a review of this place long ago but I've waited until now as I didn't want to wait for a table which was a common occurrence prior to them enlarging thier dining room. Thus the best kept secret can now be stated. "Asian Kitchen is the best at what they do!"

The fried rice was well seasoned, the steak was tender, and the chicken wasn't dry. Portions were generous and filling.

The atmosphere is lively but still comfortable enough to enjoy a conversation. Overall, it's a dependable spot for good food and a fun dinner experience. I'd go back.

3/5 total - and they all go to the chefs. Service needs work…read more Sunday lunch here was a great choice though - no big crowds, immediate seating and quick food service. I chose to be seated at the sushi bar as I was dining alone, unfortunately, it was quite a wait for the server to come to me and grab an order. I was greeted with a water and a complimentary edamame appetizer, that was a nice touch and they were delicious. I was planning on ordering the "lunch special" and my fault, but I didn't notice it said M-F only. Immediately my server, Fifi, quickly pointed that out rather rudely and stood beside me tapping her pen while I browsed the menu instead of coming back to give me time to browse - it was odd and uncomfortable but I chose two sushi rolls and a glass of wine. My sushi came out before my drink, so I waited for my wine while I indulged in the most delicious sushi rolls, freshly made and the salmon and shrimp were very fresh. I ordered a Salmon Roll + Boston Roll. When my server came back I asked for a side of miso sauce. She frowned, looked puzzled, said no, and walked away. A few moments later I caught her attention and daid, it's on the menu, may I please get a side of it. Again she told me no, stating they don't have it, she brought me a menu and I pointed it out. A few minutes later the chefs at the sushi bar are talking to her and finally, I got a side of miso sauce, for a $2 up-charge (which I was expecting, and agreed to). Overall, the service was mediocre and it didn't feel friendly at all. She did check on me a couple of times but by no means was it exceptional or welcoming. At the end I received my tab to notice an automatic 18% gratuity/service fee added. I understand the service fee's, but the gratuity being included really is a bummer. Overall, the stars are for the chefs - the food and sauces was great, but the service needs some work and menu training to be more knowledgeable about what's offered

Lunchtime! New location, hoping the same great taste/selections!

This was my 2nd time actually dining here - but thought I needed to review. Upon ordering, it said my order would be ready in 20-30 minutes. I got there in about 30 minutes. I did have to wait a bit as there appeared to be one person working and she had a table she was also serving at the same time. I ordered the Basil Chicken w/brown rice & Kung Pao Pork w/white rice. I also ordered the Edamame. The one Basil Chicken order was a dinner and included an egg roll and salad. The Edamame was fine. Not super HOT, but I also waited a bit and it took me about 12 min to drive home. But they were just fine. The Kung Pao Pork was not as spicy as I thought it would be. But there were TONS of vegetables in it. The taste wasn't super powerful, so it was just okay. The Basil Chicken was good and also contained a ton of vegetables, which I liked. Peppers, corn, zucchini, onions, string peas and mushrooms. I may have missed a veggie, but there are quite a few varieties. The Chicken was good...again not the most powerful taste, but it was fine. The salad was warm and I couldn't eat it. I would have prepared the salad be in a separate bag so it stayed crisp and chilled, if it was supposed to be. The egg roll was mostly breading and hard to actually chew. Not my favorite. But to be honest, I'm not a fan of egg rolls. They threw some sauces in the bag, but no chop sticks so you may need to ask if you need those. The only other minor issue was the sauce was already leaking inside the bag from one of the styrofoam containers. The menu is extravagant and filled with half Chinese items and half Japanese items. I will try again and focus more on Japanese items next time.

Every…read moresingle time the food has been FRESH, ON TIME, and nothing has been missing or made incorrectly from my order. This most recent time I had the Sweet and Sour Chicken, Szechuan Beef & The Peanut Butter Won Tons! The Sweet & Sour Chicken is just basic fried chicken pieces, some white rice, and the sweet & sour sauce w/pineapple, green pepper, onion & tomato. I just love the blend of tangy sauce with the fried chicken and the texture of the rice. It's comforting and tasty. You can't go wrong here. The Szechuan Beef was a bit spicy (it's labeled as such) which is what I wanted; filled with cabbage, onion, broccoli, and peppers along with tender juicy strips of beef in a tangy spicy sauce. It is also served with a side of white rice (You can sub fried rice for an additional charge). My favorite part and the item I look forward to the most here is the Peanut Butter Won Tons! They are crispy, crunchy and filled with a sweet peanut butter filling. It's like dessert. SO GOOD! You get quite a few of them (6-7) for the appetizer. I've tried noodle dishes, egg foo young, and even the BBQ Pork app...everything is great. Love this place. I have NOT dined in yet, but I enjoy takeout Chinese - I usually have food for another day after as well.

It's a little dark. There are several blown bulbs in the dining room that need attention. While I wasn't a fan of the beef, I would give them another try.
