Ordered three dishes. Peking pork, mongolian beef and beef noddle soup. The mongolian beef and peking pork was very sweet almost like candy. The green and red peppers in the pork dish looked old, like they should have been thrown out and not served to people. The beef noddle soup was good. Service wasn't the best, had to grab food containers and bags and pack it to go myself.

I went for lunch and got the chicken and mixed vegetables. It came with 2 sides so plenty of food! Really good value for your money. I had a special request because I’m allergic to garlic and my waiter said no problem. The food was excellent, clean and peaceful atmosphere. I highly recommend you give this place a try!

We had an amazing Chinese New Year feast at Monkey King BBQ & Noodle in Overland Park. This Cantonese restaurant specializes in Chinese BBQ and traditional Cantonese cuisine, and we ordered twenty dishes to share family-style.
The BBQ platter was outstanding. The crispy pork belly had a perfect crunch, with tender, flavorful meat underneath. The roasted duck had crispy skin with juicy, succulent meat, and the char siu had just the right balance of sweetness and smokiness.
Their claypot dishes were some of the best we’ve had. The braised eggplant with salted fish and minced chicken was packed with deep umami flavors. The braised pork knuckles in fermented bean curd sauce were incredibly tender and rich. The braised pork belly with taro was a standout—the taro soaked up all the flavors, giving it a smooth and creamy texture.
Since a whole fish wasn’t available, we opted for the fish fillet in black bean sauce, which was a great substitute. The poached chicken with ginger scallion sauce was simple but delicious. We also enjoyed egg rolls, spicy beef tendon, homemade pork potstickers, mapo tofu, beef chow fun, stir-fried udon with shacha sauce, Yang Chow fried rice, and stir-fried gailan.
Despite the restaurant being very busy, the staff did their best to accommodate everyone. Prices were reasonable, portions were generous, and everything was delicious. If you're looking for authentic Cantonese food, Monkey King BBQ & Noodle is a must-visit.

Menu is huge, with many different Asian cuisines, I came specifically for Chinese but they had Singaporean noodles! So I got that. The noodles were cooked perfectly as was the shrimp. The pork was dry and chewy. Overall I enjoyed the meal and will return. The next time I will get shrimp only. The Thai tea, was not true Thai tea. Both the Crab Rangoon and hot & sour soup were excellent. They are unique in offering a small portion as an option.

The food here is so good, you don't understand. I am the manager at Exotic Pets next door so I have to fight not to go here every day, it is so delicious. I smell it all day and it makes my afternoon. DEFINITELY GO HERE. The menu is huge, and prices are great! One meal feeds me a big lunch for 2 days. Hot & Sour soup and Hawaiian Chicken are my favorite.

Tried the BBQ pork lo mein and some chicken stir fried noodles. Both were delicious and the egg drop soup was piping hot on a cold day. Service was good and we will be back to try more dishes.

Singapore fried noodles are very good here. Also decent are Chinese bbq, and the fried intestine, the latter is one of the best I have had in the U.S. the food overall is quite oily though. Kitchen is pretty slow so don’t go when you are hungry.
The food here is always nice and fresh. They do a great job getting the food perfect! I ordered the orange chicken and it was nice and crispy but light at the same time. There was very good flavor too!

Best Chinese(Cantonese & Mandarin) in Kansas!! With lots of menu items, the cooks can customize, too. *This is my only regular goto Chinese restaurant, and I've tried them all KS & MO.
