Always on the hunt for the best char siu when I'm out of town, and TikTok led me to this gem inside a food hall. Kai Kai BBQ came through when I didn't feel like cooking (especially with a 3-hour drive home ahead of us). We ordered a little bit of everything--fried rice, bok choy, shumai, char siu bao--and of course, the main event: a pound and a half of char siu. Let's talk about it...solid 8/10. The char siu had great flavor, nice glaze, and that balance of sweet and savory I look for. Definitely scratched the itch. Everything else was good and rounded out the meal well, but the pork was the star. Food hall vibes keep it casual and quick, perfect for when you want something satisfying without the fuss.
The duck was absolutely delicious even reheated the next day. This was one of the stalls that we checked out in the Mills market. The best way to go about this is to divide and conquer, send one person to one stall and another to another stall since most of these stalls aren't just grabbing and go. That way you can get your food all at once. I got half a roast duck and my husband got shrimp dumplings and steamed pork buns. He forgot he likes baked pork buns more than steamed so take this with a grain of salt, but he found the steamed ones to be too doughy for his liking. He said the shrimp dumplings were great. I absolutely love the roast duck. It had a great taste and is also the right level of fattiness for me. We brought it home and I ate it the next day and the day after, and it was still delicious reheated. Since it is in Mills market, it might be difficult to find a table and parking can be rough. I suggest parking a couple blocks away and walking and having the back up plan of grabbing the food to go. Or just go on an off hour so you don't have to deal with the crowds. We got lucky when we got there at 11:30 on a Sunday. There was no line, but by the time we left at 12:30 there was a line for this stall.
Fast and so delicious. Had the best strawberry kalamansi juice and the lucky three--crispy pork, roasted duck, and char siu with garlic bok choy and steamed rice. The crispy pork was probably one of the best I've had--seasoned so well, very juicy and tender pork, with really crunchy skin. Roasted duck was tender, juicy, and also full of flavor. I just wish the skin was crispy but it was still very good. Char siu was a flavor bomb-- loved it. This was a generous portion that could easily feed two, maybe three if your small eaters. Great deal and fast. Would definitely come back to try more!
Pleasantly surprised by this stall in Mills Market. I'm not often impressed by food hall vendors but Kai Kai blew me away. Their BBQ meats were all super good. The crispy pork was delicious with crunchy skin and tender meat attached. The roasted duck was a little fatty and our pieces were more skin than meat. The seasoning was on the salty side. The char siu was thick and marinated very well. Good balance of sweet and savory. The platter came with plenty of rice and a hearty side of bok choy. The two sauces are great compliments for the meats. We also shared an order of the steamed duck buns. They were fluffy and sweet with juicy duck meat inside. It was delightful. There's a lot more food to try at Kai Kai and they do catering too.
Finally gave them a try. My go to, uni girl was closed when I arrived, so I decided to try this popular spot. I got the BBQ chicken plate with egg fried rice. The chicken was Char shu style, which was sweet. I didn't really care for it, but I can see why it's popular. The plate came with rice (I upgraded for fried rice) and baby bok choy. The plate was ok, but not worth the price in my opinion. I would go back to try the dumplings, but the rest of the menu doesn't seem right for me.
Came here sometime last year when they first opened. They are def more organized. The long lines are gone so ordering is easier. Waiting for my food did still take time, but when it came it still was so good. I forgot about the wait. More organized seating at this multi food Asian food vendor food hall. We def like it much better. There's a parking lot in the back and it fills up but def be patient bc the parking will be close by and free. Theres also restrooms inside here too closer to the door where the parking lot is
Very very very delicious. I think Mills Market is more of a lunch spot because we've come here twice around 7 and it seems that we're late and everything else is sold out - next time we're coming for lunch. That being said, Kai Kai was not sold out. They made the shrimp dumplings fresh and they were SO GOOD. The flavor of the pork and rice (omg the garlic rice.. yum) was good, but the platter was room temp/cold. You could tell it had been ready and sitting for quite some time. Still delicious and I would come back to have it again, but like I said - I think it needs to be during lunch.
This place is worth the hype!!! The char siu pork is amazing, delicious, and perfect! The serving is generous, and I do think the prices are very fair. I would be a patron way more often if this wasn't located inside Mills Market. I only go during the day on weekdays because it is always packed in there. As lively as it is, it is extremely overstimulating at times. Kai Kai always has the longest line, and I now understand why!!
Kai Kai BBQ was a hit besides one aspect. When we walked into Mills Market we saw Kai Kai was crowded and we understood why. Though the one turn off was how the guy at the counter was a tad rude and almost uninterested in taking our order. Which can be understandable, given how busy they were. He just had a small attitude and kept looking away from us with almost a dirty look as if we just stepped on his toe or something. However, the food was absolutely delicious and we loved every bite. We got the 3 meat combo of Sausage, Duck, and Honey Chicken. It came with a heavy heaping of rice. The combo was about $20 so that's not too bad in my opinion. Would definitely come back for the food.
We got the roasted duck, pork and bbq pork. I thought the service was okay, they got the order wrong and was not very nice when we asked to fix it. We also waited extra long for the correct order. The roast pork was wayyy too fatty, and the skin was not crispy at all! It was more like a chewy texture. The bbq pork was definitely a little better but very sweet. They also don't have water/ water cups, so definitely bring your own of buy it. Overall this is a spot for a quick to go bite but the dining area was okay. Some people never clean up after themselves a there aren't many clean tables to utilize in such a high traffic area. The bathrooms aren't clean and the lines are long.
Tucked in the Mills Market store, alongside several other restaurants, Kai Kai has a casual, food-hall atmosphere. Seating is limited, and it can feel crowded during the day. On our visit about 30 minutes before closing we ordered the roast duck 2/5, crispy pork 4/5,and char siu pork 3/5, served with rice and bok choy. The duck was the most disappointing of the trio. Overly oily, with mostly bone and very little meat. My son couldn't enjoy it at all and ended up discarding it. The char siu pork was a better portion but I couldn't taste the signature sweet glaze that it's known for. Still, I found it a bit too dry and chewy for my taste; all the dishes did come with a standard hoisin dipping sauce, but I'm a huge fan of the meat being cooked flavored without the need for sauces to mask the flavor. The crispy pork offered the most promise, with the expected crunchy skin, but overall the meal left me wishing for more tenderness in the meat and a more generous use of sauce to tie everything together. Given the Michelin recommendation, expectations were high. In this case, the experience fell short. Perhaps the late-night timing contributed, but based on what I tasted, I would not place Kai Kai among Orlando's standout dining destinations.
Been here a few times, it's located inside of Mills Market. It is such a fun little market with multiple shops inside. Parking can be a little tough, there is a parking lot out back as well as some street parking along the main road. They have entrances on both sides. Snagging a table can be a bit difficult too sometimes if it is busy. There is usual some free standing high tops always free though. The decor inside is cute with lights and such strewn above. The baos are really good. My all time favorite are their dumplings, they are a must get every time. Tonight I also got the vegetable lo mein to try, it was solid. If you're in the area and looking for a good Asian Market to try, you should swing by and check this one out.

One of the many vendors selling food here. Kai Kai Had the longest line as they are she most popular here. I got their gyoza there fried buns and fried shrimp. These were all good I will say the fried shrimp can become a lot as it does not come with a sauce. There are not a lot of seating options here for how many people come. It's best if you are ordering to go. read more

First time here, area was busy for lunar new year festivities. Inside looked clean and similar to outdoor street markets in theme, employees were nice and answered any questions or recommendations about their menu. Forgot to take a picture but I got the duck bao and it was delicious! Would come here again to try more of their menu. read more

Meh...Can only speak for what I ordered, Singapore rice noodles with chicken and shrimp. Dry, if the food could talk I'm sure it would say something along the lines of, I tried to have flavor but I just couldn't quite make it work. Maybe the other stuff is better? read more

Absolutely delicious food here at Kai Kai, located in the Mills Market. I came for lunch and it was a bit busy but the team is clearly hard at work getting everyone's meals fresh and ready. The market is small but they are located in the corner stall. I loved my shrimp dumplings with that sweet and salty sauce, perfect bite size portions. My rice box with char siu pork was doused in a savory sauce with that delicious garlicky Bok choy. I would totally come back again since there were other menu items I've wanted to try. read more

A friend and I met at Mills Market for lunch and. Kai Kai was on my list. I ordered the beef chow fun and a 1/2 pound of the pork char siu. I was most excited for the noodles and although the flavor was great, there seemed to be an excessive amount oil at the bottom and the noodles were all stuck together. The pork was tasty, but not as tender as I hoped. The service was good and my food came out hot. I am glad I had the opportunity to cross them off my list. read more

I was really excited to try this place as I've seen it mentioned online several times. I finally made time to stop to check it out. It is inside of the Mills Market which is a quaint food hall style location. I ordered from the Kai Kai BBQ counter and the server was very nice despite it being very busy. I ordered the BBQ chicken and duck plate to go and it took about 20 mins to get. The food was ok. It wasn't hot and the duck was very soggy and fatty. I plan to try again and maybe eat there to get the full experience. read more
I ordered the Siu Mai and Pork dumplings and they were absolutely delicious! Full of flavor for such a small bite. Maybe waited around 10-15mins. The shared venue layout makes it easy to walk around or to just watch as they prepare your food. Do plan to drive a little bit to find open parking, as this area tends to be heavily congested with traffic. My only regret is not taking a picture of the food before eating it and not ordering more. read more

It is common in US to use food color but geez, the char siu pork color is all over everything it touches. Looks good but too sweet. Crispy pork was told 45 mins wait so I didn't wait and within 15 mins, it was available. Didn't try. Beef chow fun is not what everyone said. Disappointed. The place is packed, stuffy and lack of a/c. Westernized and not traditional. read more
Good food, duck and Ribs were good and on point, sausage fried-rice was really good... not to make such a big line but it's ok. Be aware there's not enough or assigned place to eat. It's a fast food setting, you place the order and wait to be called while standing around, no sitting. If you are lucky you might get a place that has been just left by someone..... this place is to be visited one time. read more

Don't get me wrong the food here is amazing. But the place is a mess and the service is definitely lacking which I cannot completely blame the establishment for because if you've ever been to the mills market it is always incredibly busy. I got the pick 2 meat rice platter and I chose the soy sauce chicken and the char siu pork, very good quality of food but for the price the portion was not up to par definitely felt like I should've gotten more food for a 17 dollar rice platter. Overall a good spot, once they get there feet on the ground and become a better organized establishment the rating could definitely be a 5! read more
I had seen their videos on social media and knew I had to try! I am not a big duck or pork fan, so I was relieved to have the option of a chicken dish. I LOVED the sauce on the chicken, but it being on the bone, when chopped the bone broke and there was small pieces that made the experience a little less enjoyable. But the flavors were amazing and I hope to come back and try other items! read more

The food is absolutely. NY Cantonese style with the hanging duck, chicken and crispy pork. I had the beef chow fun noodles, delicious and you can taste the 'wok hei' with sprinkles of bean sprout. My hubby had the rice with the 3 choice- with the 3 meats I mentioned before. All tasty although my hub said the Crispy pork pieces, some pieces weren't crispyyy... There was about 1 hour waiting between standing in line to order, and waiting to pick up the order. Since this is a new place with lots of hype from foodie reviews, the wait was expected. There's a few other stalls here. All w/ equally long wait (Build your own Bahn mi, Summer rolls, Boba tea, and Japanese rice onigiri) but we didn't try those. Next time! read more
What a great addition to the Mills50 lineup! Kai Kai is in Mills Market along with a few other vendors selling southeast asian staples. They offer some great options of grilled meat entrees, combos with rice and dim sum. The food was amazing! Every bite was delicious, to the point where I've been dying to go back even tho i was there just a couple days ago. The Beef Chow Fun was my wife's favorite. She said it has made her top comfort foods list, so we'll be going back when we need a big dose of carb happiness. The pork rice box was my favorite! It enough food for two to split. Honestly I'm amazed at the quantity and quality! Seating was one of the only things that could be improved -- since it's a market, there are only a handful of tables and chairs available so keep that in mind if you're going with a large group or at busy times. Parking can be tough on mills or colonial, but thankfully there is parking lot behind the market with plenty of spaces and lots of parallel spots on side streets. All that to say, this is on our Orlando favorites list and we recommend checking it out! read more

Kai Kai is located in a little Asian food hall. You can tell by the intense parking situation that it's gonna be a great experience when you step inside. It's very crowded so inherently pretty loud and you may have to a tough time finding seating, but again... worth it. I tried the duck fried rice siu mai, spicy cucumber salad and spicy Sichuan wings. As you can tell... i like it hot! The wings didn't carry much spiciness at all for me, but I enjoyed the flavor and they were fried perfectly crispy. They should definitely be eaten fresh as it's not the same experience later. The cucumber salad is a hit! Also, not spicy but I could literally eat that everyday. They had a perfect sesame flavor. The sui mai was not what I expected. Biting into it tasted like i bit into a really thick sausage. I wouldn't say i enjoyed it, but I didn't hate it. The duck fried rice was perfect! Especially with a little added chili oil and soy sauce. It was so good, I even ate the leftovers cold the next day! read more

Roast Duck Bao was fire. The duck meat was juicy and the pastry exterior had a hint of sweetness & packed with flavor. The ambience is adorable. Don't sleep on this hidden gem! read more
The soy sauce chicken was a letdown, might because just came back from Vancouver. The traffic around mills50 is uhh, and it's a fast-food-style spot with a high price. Waiting 30 minutes in line was disappointing when the chicken turned out to be cold, bland, and a bit greasy read more
I was looking forward to trying Kai Kai since it opened. It's located inside the Mills Market alongside other vendors. The line wasn't too bad on a Thursday afternoon but I've heard it can get busier on the weekend. We parked in back which can be pretty difficult to find but worth it or you can try street parking. I went with the duck fried rice and garlic cucumber and I wasn't disappointed, the rice was amazing (star of the show) and the cucumbers were very tasty and refreshing. It was hard to find a table to sit or stand but we got lucky waiting for someone to leave. The ambiance is nice and you have a lot of options within the same market. The service was quick and I can't wait to go back and try their other dishes. read more

Finally gave it a try since being recommended by a few people on IG. We ordered shrimp dumplings, xiumai, beef chowfun & rice box w/ bbq pork, charsiu & soy chicken. Dumplings & xiumai was just good enough to not complaint tbh. Beef chowfun. The portion came out pretty nice, great job on the wok; however, to my taste, it needs a bit of sweetness to balance everything. I do appreciate the noodles, very fresh. Rice box was saving the day. Just delicious!!! 100% come back for it. I liked bbq pork & charsiu better than soy chicken, will try the duck next time. Staff were friendly and nice!!! read more
