KIN LIN 314 East 51st Street, Kansas City, MO 64112

"Me and 2 coworkers got take out. I had the spicy and sweet crispy chicken they both had kung bao tripples. The chicken was not breaded as i had wished but still tasty and was more sweet than spicy. They both said the food was good but not great."

"Not sure why the ratings are as low as they are. My husband first found this place and got dinner from there, but I was a little put off by the low reviews and didn't want to try it at first. I have since tried it and we both LOVE this place. This is a great takeout spot and we go here all the time now. I would definitely recommend this to people looking for a yummy asian food spot that's pretty cheap and good quality for how much food they give you."

"I was looking for Szechuan boiled fish (on their menu , "Szechuan Fish with Hot Chili Oil" or 水煮鱼) and they're one of few places in KCMO where I could find it. it was easy to place an online order and pickup. My food was well packaged, which is critical with a colourful oily soupy dish! I also got the Cumin Tofu Skewers and Bean Curd & Vegetable Soup (free with order minimum). It's been about ten years since I had 水煮鱼 and it did not disappoint. I also really enjoyed the tofu skewers and the soup. I will be back soon."

"I love this place so much! Authentic cuisine, delicious, and consistent. Do yourself a favor and get the Spicy Crispy Chicken Kin Lin style from the traditional menu. Staff are amazing too!"

"This place had been on my list for quite a while after I was told the authentic menu was really great. We made the mistake of going at lunch which was only the limited menu. I got kung pao tofu and my spouse got general tao's chicken. The chicken was pretty good, with a sauce that wasn't overly sweet. My tofu was cool and soggy with raw cool vegetables with warm sauce. We also had our rice mixed up, but honestly the steamed rice was better than the fried. I couldn't really complain about it because there was only one server working, so we didn't see her at all between when the plates were dropped off and the check dropped off. While the authentic menu might be better I'm not going to drive 20 minutes again to give it a shot. Oh, and my fortune cookie didn't have a fortune lol. I guess it was a sign."
