No the Kung Pao chicken is not awesome (colon ,open bracket). This is the staple americanized chinese cuisine with one base sauce ( soy,sugar,rice vinegar, garlic) and just simple deviations to obtain the various dishes.
You will get the same stuff at Panda express or any other generic americanized chinese eatery. Base your need to visit on the price differential if you want.
I also enquired about some of the dishes in order to acertain any hidden "special" (read authentic) dishes, but was sadly dissapointed.
Extra star(as ususal) for Mom-Pop eatery.
