    Szechuan beef lunch order
    David B.

    Order Szechuan beef and it was filled with all random vegetables barley any beef and it was very rubbery. I would put this place as the worst Chinese in lake Zurich. The inside felt very cold and not very welcoming. Wouldn't return at all

    It does NOT say "Only on Weekdays"

    At 2:10 PM, I ordered the General Tso's Combo Platter expecting to get the lunch price ($9.62 after tax), which they offer from 12PM-3PM. The woman charges me the full DINNERTIME price ($11.77 after tax), saying they don't offer the "lunch special" price on weekends. There is NOTHING on their menu that says that. I'm already struggling financially as it is, I don't need to get f‍ked over by this horrible woman. She's been rude before, but this a new low. Consider this my last visit.

    You name it, we probably had it!

    So as we all know, most, if not all Asian Restaurants, are closed on Monday. My daughter was having her 17th Birthday Party and wanted Asian Food for her Soirée. Stopped by Kong Ming the Friday before and asked if they were open? Was informed, they were but after 4:00 pm. Great, called on Monday just after 4PM...no answer. Left a message, after 4:30PM received a call back from the restaurant, they heard my message and were running a bit behind in time. Placed the order for a total of 11 entries, told me it would be ready in 45 minutes. (So glad for the follow up, otherwise it would be one of our local Pizza Place's coming to the rescue). Got there before, Order was good to go. Food was a hit! Thank you Kong Ming for going the extra mile! Cheers, Nazdrowie, Mangia, Shey Shey!

    Shrimp fried rice
    Liz J.

    I've been CRAVING Chinese food but moved to a new area and wasn't sure where to order from. Is this the best Chinese food I've ever had? No. Is it the worst? Also no. I may or may not order from here again. Sweet and sour chicken: Delicious. The sauce was very good as well. Beef and broccoli: Good, but not the best. Egg roll: Pretty good, not as much as cabbage as I usually like, though. Veggie spring roll: AWESOME. Great flavor. Crab rangoon: Excellent. Here are my main 2 complaints. First, the Shrimp Fried Rice. Besides the whole pieces of shrimp, there were a couple peas and green onions scattered throughout the rice. It was SUPER heavy in onions, so there was very little flavor except for onion :( Second, I ordered the Vegetable Chow Mein. I'm not sure if they just forgot to put the noodles in a separate container, or gave me something different, but I received vegetables only that were again, very heavy with onions. They were also not the vegetables that should have been in the Chow Mein. Would I order from here again? Maybe. After craving Chinese food for a couple weeks, it definitely hit the spot.

    Best General Tao I've ever had. I usually get medium spicy. They give a huge amount and it's perfect quality every time.

We confirmed with some of the employees that the restaurant was under new ownership. We noticed that a group of employees were training and working on a new P.O.S. system. The waiter that took our order was fumbling through taking our order on their new ipad system, which was ok and understandable as they were implementing some new technology into the restaurant. The good news was the food was still as good as it was under the previous owner. I was glad to find that the food hasn't changed. It seemed like the menu was the same, I plan to go back soon to see if anything new has been added to the menu after the new ownership has been running for a few months now.

It's very hard to find good Chinese food in outside of the city. This is a smaller restaurant. Given it is a small restaurant I think customer service should be a little better. Greeting customers is important. I ordered the combination pan fried noodles, a small wonton soup, shrimp egg rolls and a Diet Coke. They forgot to give me my Diet Coke. I never check but something inside told me and I listened. I went back in. When I got home I got everything I ordered. Flavor wise everything was good. I have watched a lot of master chef mind you. I know about flavorrrr. In terms of the wonton soup I wish the wonton wrap was thinner. The soup and wontons themselves had good chicken broth flavor and I think inside the wontons was pork, very yummy. Shrimp egg rolls were good but I wish I was given sweet and sour sauce and soy sauce like when you go to any other Chinese place. I understand prices are crazy for inventory but giving soy sauce and sweet and sour should be formality and the brand new customer shouldn't be surprised when they get home. Charge an additional dollar per order to give that or something if cost is the problem. RED FLAG! Combination pan fried noodles was a good flavor also. The noodles resemble the crunchy ones in the bag just thinner and they give you more noodles. Yummy, maybe I'll try lo mein next time. I expect soy sauce and sweet & sour to be included plssss. THANK YOU FOR THE YUMMY SUBURB CHINESE FOOD!

It took a little while for a server to come see us though. They staff the kitchen plentifully but it sees as though they may be short on servers. We ordered appetizers chicken sticks and calamari and both were excellent. For entires, we ordered orange chicken, lemon chicken, the rainbow lo mein, kung pao chicken, and then sweet and sour chicken. The food is so very good. Probably the best Americanized Chinese food we've ever had. Especially the kung pao. One thing to watch out for is the tip is added to your bill automatically. We did call afterwards when we realized this and the restaurant accommodated us appropriately. We were pleased. Regardless, I would very much recommend this place.

The restaurant is huge and most tables have a view of the glass walled kitchen. We started with hot and sour soup. This was one of my favorites way back and it was just as good as I remembered. We also ordered Moo She Pork and Mongolian Beef. The Moo Shoo Pork was better when doused with hoisin sauce. It seemed a bit bland without. The Mongolian Beef itself was pretty good. The issue was the sauce was totally congealed making it visually unappealing. The beef definitely needed the sauce and it was hard to spread the "blob's of what was supposed to be sauce. Service was a fair at best. One of the floor people was responsive with water and drink refills but we rarely saw our server. I remember hearing somewhere, "you can't go back". Now I know what that means!
