| - Kung Fu Thai & Chinese is a Thai and Chinese restaurant located on Spring Mountain Rd. I went with my party of four to this restaurant on Sunday, January 3 around 11am. The style of service here is family style, but there are entrees for one serving available as well.
Atmosphere: Vibrant, Organized
The decor of the restaurant seems to be based around Thai decor. Upon entering the restaurant, the decor is vermillion-colored. Nothing too flashy, but there are pictures and statues that seem to be Thai-themed. Nothing too obnoxious or flashy, but there is just enough decor around the restaurant to catch your eye.
Service: Good!
Upon entering the restaurant, we were seated immediately at a booth. When were seated, however, instead of the waiter asking us for what we wanted to drink, he just gave us all ice water. We were able to ask for hot tea (which one of us wanted) later upon request. The table where we were seated had plenty of space for us to sit. We took our time finishing our dishes, and when they needed to be cleared, they were cleared with efficiency. The only thing I did not enjoy would be the busser stacking dishes at the table. He should have brought a cart or a tray in case something might have splashed on us.
Food: Well prepared, delicious, and memorable
We ordered the crab ragoons as our only appetizer. They were crispy on the outside with a creamy filling. Six were served to us on a bed of shredded cabbage with a side of horseradish sauce and sweet and sour sauce, both of which complimented the ragoons very well. What I liked about the service when we ordered the ragoons would be when the waiter told us that if we order wontons they would be plain and if we order the ragoons they would have filling. This was very considerate of him.
The two soups we order were the wonton soup and the tom yom with "big" rice noodles. The wonton soup came with shrimp, pork, carrots, baby bok choy, scallions, and pork wontons. The wonton soup was decent, but needed some salt and pepper. The tom yum we order was medium spiciness and came with fish balls, imitation crab, some ground pork, bean sprouts, scallions, and a fried wonton on top for garnish. The tom yum was incredible: full of flavor, a little savory with a complimentary kick of spiciness.
The dishes that we order were the chicken pad thai, Hon Sui Tofu, and beef and broccoli in oyster sauce. Chicken pad thai came with purple cabbage and parsley on the side. The pad thai had a good amount of chicken and seasoning. The Hon Sui had great juiciness in the tofu and great flavor in the meat: totally delicious and savory. The Beef and Broccoli was probably my favorite dish; the beef's smokiness and seasoning was absoutely amazing. The Beef and Broccoli in oyster sauce is a must try!
Overall: Good experience, would go again!
Although the service was not great, the food we were served was some great Asian cuisine. The food was probably some of the best I've had in a while. Visit this place for some great Thai and Chinese food!
