Kirin Chinese Restaurant has been a family favorite for over 20 years, known for its delicious dishes and friendly atmosphere. Customers enjoy dishes like the steamed winter melon soup and sticky rice stuffed in chicken skin, both of which need to be ordered in advance. The restaurant allows BYOB without corkage fees, and sometimes offers complimentary dishes to guests.
The menu includes flavorful options such as the hung tao yee fu won ton soup, with large, nicely deep-fried wontons in a tasty broth, and the crispy and moist salt and pepper chicken wings. Other popular dishes are beef stew over chow fun, clams with black bean sauce, lobster lo mein, fried calamari, and oyster sauce beef with pea sprouts. Many diners also praise the fish salad and winter melon soup.
Despite parking difficulties nearby, Kirin Chinese Restaurant remained a favorite spot for loyal customers who have been coming for years. The restaurant’s lasting popularity is a sign of its great food, attentive service, and the special memories made there for generations of families. Sadly, the owner has announced his retirement, and the restaurant closed at the end of the last night, leaving a big loss for the neighborhood. The staff, including Henry, Sam, and Raymond, will be missed, along with their consistent service and tasty dishes.
