I dined at the Kung Fu kitchen for the first time and I was pleasantly surprised at how fresh, well combined and balanced the taste of egg flower soup was. I ordered the number 3 combo which included fried shrimp, subgum chicken chow mein, sweet and sour chicken and a small order of pork fried rice. The food was classic American Chinese cuisine, done right. The food was hot and cooked perfectly. I also, enjoyed watching the Chinese cooking channel which made the atmosphere pleasant and really highlghted the beauty, love and complexity the Chinese bring to their traditional dishes. The foods being cooked looked delicious. The service was kind and add quit. I definitely will return for more tasty meals. I recommend trying this restaurant if your looking for a well rounded, well priced and solid Chinese American dinning experience. Oh, and my favorite dish was the egg flower soup😉, yummy! ❤️

We occasionally have their lunch special deal. It's an incredible value. My favorite is the general tso's chicken. It's hot, sweet and saucy but still crispy. They've really stepped up their game lately as well, because their pork fried rice is so good now. You can taste the wok hei. The service is always fast and friendly. The casual setting and the booths are comfy. St. John's best kept secret!

This has been one of our favorite spots for years. However, today our order was probably the worst Chinese I’ve had. All fried food was absolutely dripping in oil - fried shrimp was overcooked and soggy, and I could squeeze it and oil went everywhere. Rice was scrapped from the bottom of the bin, and burnt. Green beans were overcooked, oily and had little flavor. Will really need to consider if we return.

The is most likely the best Chinese food I have been to. It's absolutely the best tofu I have had. Pork was juicy. Green beans had a perfect cook that still had some crunch. I'm not even finished eating but I didn't want to forget to write this. There is some spice if you don't adjust the ones marked spicy. I don't think it's overwhelming though. You can request mild or extra spicy though.
Services was great. Place had some dirty tables despite it not being busy but I love that. Absolutely a must if you are visiting st johns. If I lived in this neighborhood I would definitely hyper fixate and eat until I was tired of it.

Watery sauce used for orange chicken turned breading into a moist mess.
Their non-breaded proteins have an odd texture almost like they're tofu with coloring and flavoring added.

Ask for straw (ADA requirement), never got one. All chicken is battered amd deep fried way ahead of time, then covered in sauce when ordered. Was never given red sauce and mustard, or had chance to ask for it because waitres never came back to table. Instead of sesame chicken, I was given plain battered deep fried chicken.

Kung Food is such a gem in North Portland! The staff is always incredibly friendly and welcoming, which makes every visit feel like a treat. The portion sizes are generous, and the food is consistently fresh and delicious. I really appreciate the great selection of vegetarian options—it’s easy to find something satisfying and flavorful every time. Whether you’re grabbing takeout or dining in, Kung Food never disappoints. Highly recommend!
Ordered sesame chicken for 17 dollars and it’s just dry chicken. no sauce. I’m confused what makes this “sesame” chicken. All my life of eating Chinese food I’ve never seen this before.
I could’ve went to the grocery store and bought an entire rotisserie chicken for less money.
Dude working here was also passive aggressive.
