Kin Lin - Kansas City

I loved the food here. I think it was underestimated. Recommended Sichuan fish with chili oil if you like spicy. One of the best Chinese foods in KC.

Eat here for the first time. We tried the Kung Pao Chicken and Crab Rangoon. Both were really tasty and the spice level was right in the Kung Pao, a small kick, but not too hot, along with a good range of vegetables. We'll be back soon!

Today was the first time I went to the restaurant for dinner; I previously ordered the delivery from here before and was happy with it. I usually get the biological river (rice porridge with circus and pig). The price is reasonable and it is shocked full of centuries-old eggs (which I love, this is a plus). It is one of the few places in the city that I have seen that even offer this court. It is a nostalgic taste of the family house cooking for me. My friend ordered the picky vegetables and pigs intestine, and some sesame chicken. That was delicious. The plastered vegetable and pork roast bowl had a nice kick, a decent amount of spices. The sesame chicken was not too sweet. The only criticism I could have until now would be the fried rice that came with the ducks was pretty heavy on the soy sauce. I also noticed that they have very funny noodles on the menu, which I will definitely try next time. Ho fun noodles are unobtrusively difficult to find in Chinese restaurants in KC for some reason, so I am curious that they offer them here. Service was friendly and the decor was nice. The stands are somewhat narrow, but manageable. Definitely back when I'm looking for rice or other famous dishes. They also have things like damped fish with ginger and shells in black bean sauce, which are Mainstay dishes in my family and I really want to try them here.

Great place. The family who works there is always so sweet. It’s really relaxing place to be at. Food is amazing. I love their dry bean curd dishes. It’s so so so good. Only thing is if you are on a diet it won’t work because you’ll want to keep eating more and more of their food. Seriously Its that good.

It all depends on who is cooking in the kitchen. I've had terrific food here on par with the best in KC, and other times the food tastes like fast food Chinese. I wish they would be more consistent, but I still go and hope the good chef is cooking. Next time the food is good, I'm going to ask who is in the kitchen, and remember to call first next time and ask. The setting is way casual, it is family owned and it is reasonable price wise.
