Kung Woo in Cambridge

Very friendly people and great food. We will definitely come again!

I never ever came back to Kung Woo again, I had BBQ buffer here, It was terrible, with no service, the dishes were not fresh and there was a rotten smell, especially since the beef kept for a long time colour changed and the rotten meat. Don't waste money have bad food here.

Got the hotpot buffet. The meat quality was good

卵チャーハンを食べましたが、普通に美味しく食べられました。回鍋肉や麻婆豆腐などの日本人にもおなじみのメニューもあります。

Conclusion: -authentic "Dong Bei" food (rare in UK) -served in large portions. -cozy environment -friendly staff -fair price It was my first visit to UK, so I'd usually prevent going to Chinese restaurant since I came from Hong Kong. One of my friend suggested this restaurant for dinner and it was great overall. We arrived at the restaurant at about 7pm, it was fairly busy for a small restaurant like Kong Woo. We came in as a group of 10 and the staff welcomed us politely. The environment is not high-class indeed but its really cozy there, not bad for a family-running restaurant. We ordered dishes such as Sauerkraut Fish, Grilled Lamp Chop and Spicy Chicken, they are well cooked and served in large portions. The staff told us the key ingredients were shipped all the way from the hometown of the boss in China which is impressive As I observed, all customers enjoyed their meal, most of the customers were Chinese but there were still a few locals. The chef would not rush so that he can ensure good quality of food. I highly suggest anyone to try out Kong Woo Restaurant.

Terrible Chinese food. It's appallingly bad. The attitude of the landlady is extremely bad. They force service fees and irritate customers. Terrible Chinese food. It's appallingly bad. The attitude of the landlady is extremely bad. They force service fees and irritate customers.

DON'T COME. YOU WILL REGRET. TOTALLY WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY. The price for the hot pot is 25 pounds per person but the base is charged separately, and there's also a service fee. The staff are somewhat rude, making it seem unreasonable. It's not worth it. There's a reason why there are no other guests dining during the weekend evening peak hours.

The food was very yummy and the noodles were delicious. This was overall great experience. Definitely coming back here soon 🙂.

This idiotic owner doesn't even speak English, I know about Rome and I didn't understand what he was talking about, the food was really good, but the price wasn't worth the amount.

Very friendly and welcoming owner . Excellent service and good food.Even throw in a little birthday surprise for my wife when I mentioned it’s her birthday.

Exceptional late night Chinese takeaway! Some of the best Chinese we have had in a long time. Owner / cook was super kind and helpful. Absolutely recommend anytime after 7pm.

Just don’t come. Decoration was really bad. Service was bad, we ordered almost 2 same stir fired courses (same sauces w/ same side dishes) without any reminder. Plus price are on avg higher than other Chinese restaurants. You can always find a better one on the street.

Super bad service！！！！We waited for over an hour for the food and the boss even yelled at us！To physically attack us after we refused to pay the service charge. Besides，even charged us £5 for a small lollipop.

等餐等了快一个半小时，消费75磅，不满意服务却被强制要求支付10%的小费。拒绝支付的情况下被老板恶性语言攻击，强制变相收取1根7.5磅的棒棒糖作为抵账。 服务态度极其恶劣，让人忍无可忍！！！来剑桥的朋友大可转去其他服务态度友好的餐厅。

I wish I had the option to rate zero stars. Food was served very slowly, we waited for more than an hour. the owner was very rude and abusive to the guests. This is definitely not what Chinese food should be like.

Do not order BBQ Buffet, bad service and not very friendly. And never explain for the first visitor

I have to say the environment is really dirty, not comfortable for eating environment. The food could not be counted as Chinese food, for example the roasted lamb is actually deep fried lamb….they also refused to give the receipt to me with really bad attitude. I was quite scared by the face of their boss…not recommend you people to go, you deserve better Chinese food around the corner.

Dirty environment, unfriendly service, higher price, not authentic. I cook better than them. Specifically, roast lamb was not roasted but deep fried, extremely dry and hard. Same for spicy chicken. A staff used toilet without closing door, I could literally hear the sound. Waitress touched the rice with fingers. No receipt when I asked and they stared at me as if I was the one to be wrong. You can find other much better Chinese food around the corner. Don’t come. I had a bad stomachache after that.

My second visit to Kung Woo. A fabulous meal in a welcoming and friendly family run restaurant. I enjoyed seafood soup with kimchi and seaweed, pork and cabbage dumplings, Jasmine tea and Pear and seacoconut. Freshly prepared and very tasty. A great start to my evening.

One of the TOP BEST restaurants! Truly recommended!!! Lovely taste, lovely people! Can’t wait to visit again! Yumm!

Me and my daughter went there. My daughter been there already and hilgly recommended to me. Very wellcoming, friendly staff. Fresh and big portion food. Good for budget. Definitely go again.

Amazing food and very friendly staff!!

首先我十分反感这种店员拿着麦克风在店里唱歌强行和所有用餐客人互动的行为……我就是想安安静静好好吃个饭，真的不想听到有人拿着话筒在店里吼，而且这个人还是服务员，这样很影响用餐体验好么。。再有就是不支付现金就强制加收服务费这种行为，虽然钱不多，但说实话很让人恶心。希望剑桥的中餐馆能改改这种陋习……本来不给刷卡的店我都直接打一星的，看在你家的小炒肉虽然做出来完全不是小炒肉，好歹肉还不少的份上，就勉为其难给两星吧。希望商家在提供服务的同时还是多站在顾客的角度考虑考虑。

I'm very skeptical on trying new food places, but these guys have massive portions, delicious food, and are a family run business, these guys deffo deserve 5 stars. I recommend the beef in black bean sauce hotpan, it bangs.

老板老板娘是东北人，点了几个不是很东北的菜味道还不错，分量足。 下次想吃吃烤肉，闻起来超级香，£30pp

I have to say this is the best Chinese restaurant I’ve been in the UK. I am Chinese so I can say the food is absolutely traditional Chinese cuisine that has not been adapted to local taste, and it even somehow reminds me of the memories back in my hometown, dining with friends in a small family-run restaurant. The food is very delicious, and the price is quite decent with such a huge portion. Although it took us a while to wait for food, I think it was because they only had a few people running the restaurant and they were just too busy generally, but the food was definitely worth waiting. The staff is really nice btw. Surely will come again! I already decided what to eat next time I come to Cambridge.

am a regular customer who enjoys the family restaurant - menu items can sometimes be different from original but is always very tasty to eat! will always return for more

Do not go here. If you are not Chinese they treat you like crap and are extreme racist. We just wanted a nice meal and they were very rude and laughed at us because we did not speak Chinese. Absolutely horrendous staff. Would not recommend for a nice experience.

Two words: comfort food. We have become regulars at this restaurant because the food is so amazing. It’s authentic, prices are good and the portions are MASSIVE! The owners are a family: lovely, welcoming people. I couldn’t recommend this place more. My boyfriend and I are vegetarians and our favourite dishes here are Tofu and vegetables Green beans with braised aubergine Vegetable chow mien This place is a hidden gem.

Very authentic sichuan food. Reasonable price with big portion. Awesome!

Really love our bbq experience tonight at Kung Woo. I wish there were more dishes though like kimchi and lettuce but other than that, I would really recommend! Made me and my partner's night!

Fabulous! A small but very efficient and friendly restaurant, I was welcomed warmly and thorough enjoyed every aspect of my meal including the ambiance of the environment. My food was beautifully prepared and presentation was first class. It even looked delicious. I was dining alone but felt like part of the family. Thank you very much for a lovely meal. I will be back with my wife and family as soon as possible.

Best hotpot I’ve had, have not found anything as good in London! The spicy tomato soup works really well in the hotpot. Lovely service as well, I always enjoy coming back. Try to have cash with you, as there is a card service fee.

Lovely food and a lovely owner. Always made me feel super welcome, every time! I’m moving back to London from Cambridge and I’ll miss this place very much!

I loved this little restaurant. The family who run it are so friendly and have a delightful little girl who chatted with us. Three of us had hotpot and it was really good. So much food, meat, seafood and vegetables. We were so stuffed afterward. My only complaint was the highchair could have used a clean. Would visit again.

I went with my brother today for the 1st time. The food was delicious and the service was also very good. We ordered 4 dishes, they were beautifully cooked and presented. The boss comes from a seaside city, I can tell that he pays a lot attention to the freshness and quality of the food. You cannot find another restaurant in Cambridge using Sushi Rice in cooking. This is the only one restaurant. The portion is very big, very value for money dining. Highly recommended. Will bring friends back again.

One of the best and authentic Chinese restaurants in Cambridge. It is run by a family. The owner is also the chef. Sometimes you could ask for special items depending on what they have in the kitchen.

A small place and not the cheapest, but their Korean BBQ is well-worth the visit. The BBQ is "all-you-can-eat" for ca. 90 mins, costing £30, with a can of a soft drink included. You may need to ask for a new grill in the course of the dinner as they don't seem to replace them automatically. We went in a group, reserving tables in advance. It would have been nice if the owners provided some instructions for those who were new to Korean BBQ. However, they do come over and help/stir the food/mix the sauce when needed. Overall, I would recommend.

We were on Christmas day with my daughter, we ordered a hot pot, soup without flavor, the food for the hot pot was frozen, we ordered a salad, a cuddle and a sake, we paid 71 paund +7.50 for the service that was bad, bad experience I will never go back

Recommended. Delicious food and friendly staff. I'll be back again very soon!

吃个饭全程都在听小孩尖叫哭闹，老板的孩子，客人的孩子，此起彼伏，连绵不绝，相互呼应。一碗米饭3磅，一群人吃米饭吃了33磅？在英国这么久没打过低分，实在无法理解。

有中国胃的人不要来了……这里就不是中国口味的东北菜。。。果然不愧是英国人评的。真的是这么黑暗怎么来。这个是干瘪肥肠，就是把肥肠裹上淀粉炸出来的。我就第一次见这种做法。真的服。铁板牛肉居然是甜的。吃饭一人一道菜，一人一份饭，人均15左右。

I love this restaurant. All of the staffs were kind, especially the owner and the waiter. I ordered less salty hot pot with a friend. Ingredients were fresh and sliced to eat them easier. I have convinced the Hotpot I ate here was the best ever I’ve eaten 👍

Very good Korean food, we had 10 people for a meal out and 9 of us had the BBQ pot. This consists of chicken wings and chicken piece 2 types of pork, beef, prawns, squid and fish tofu which comes out raw and you cook on a pan on a hot plate. The meat was amazing, tender and very tasty as were the prawns and the squid. Only downsides are it takes a long time to cook with 4 or 5 of you per pan and you don't get enough vegetables. It's the second time we've been here and we have your more traditional chow mein oriental type meals first time. But everything we had was very good, lots if Asian people eat here which is always a good sign. It has a 4 stat hygiene rating but doesn't look the cleanest, also you will not find a menu online. I give the food 5 stars and restaurant itself 3. The staff were friendly but not great at speaking English, however the food is great and everyone enjoyed the food.

Pretty good all you can eat BBQ. Good service and food!

This is a cracking small restaurant with a wide range of good Asian food on the menu. Its probably the most eclectic menu in Cambridge with some amazing surprises. Most of the food seems to be Korean, including a Korean Army hotpot. But the Indian beer and the Japanese sake make this feel like a real Asian fusion. This place isn't posh. And there are only five tables downstairs.But the service was quick and friendly. Another was a buzz from the young people in Kung Woo even though it was a Monday evening (we got the last free table). The menu was just immense. It included grilled eel on steamed rice (15.80) , kelp and out tail soup (9.80), shredded pig ear in spicy sauce, (6.80), special cooked 8 kings of seafood (16.80), spicy frog leg stir fry (12.80) while puddings included sweet potato in hot toffee and deep fried sweet potato. You can also get seafood like razor clams and crab if you order a day in advance. We loved the twice cooked pork which was beautiful and the kelp and ox tail soup which were really tasty and really unusual. However the cold pigs ear in spicy sauce was just a bit too left field for us. The steamed rice with kimchi was also pretty good, though maybe a bit kimchi lite. This isn't the cheapest restaurant in Cambridge. But if you want a few food surprises, this is the place for you. David's five tips Make sure you ask them to turn the chill down on your food unless you like it mega hot Take cash unless you plan to spend more than £15. Book - there are only 5 tables downstairs Park outside for free on the single yellow line after 7pm Its very close to the Cambridge Arts Cinema

The food was very good indeed. I didn’t know what to order, so the waitress recommended the whole steamed fish, which seemed excellent. The service is low key but friendly.

Excellent food, but be aware that it's a tiny place with only 4 tables seating 4 to 6 each at a stretch.

We had a great time at Kung Woo. We ordered the BBQ set - at first it didn't look like a lot but we were stuffed. All the meat came well marinated. The pork dumplings were also delicious!

Tasty food accompanied with friendly service.

Many interesting dishes. The starters are large enough to pass for main courses.

Rude staff especially the fat woman. Food is not delicious at all compared with the price.

Pleasant and friendly, foods are tasty and we are really enjoyed them. we made a memorable evening there.

The worst chinese restaurant in Cambridge. Food and service are bad. Please avoid this restaurant.

Despite the ground floor being empty, my group of four were seated in the back corner of the (equally empty) upper floor, where we were pretty much forgotten about. Orders for drinks and food weren't taken for a very long time, with an equally long wait for our food. Our starters came out cold. I'm not sure what happened...

Excellent and very popular amongst Chinese students. Good portions also.

Been there for St Valentine's Day. Such a great meal with the brisket beef noodle soup and fried squid! The staff was really attentive to our needs and they gave us a complimentary red rose and slice of cake. Will definitely come back and recommend it.

Had a great meal here, we asked for the Korean Barbeque style dish for 3 people (We were 2 Adults and 2 kids) and we still couldn't quite finish it all, they then offered to bring us more. Very friendly staff. The battered fried squid and the other small sides we ordered were good too.

Such a nice dinner! The food was amazing and the staff very polite. We'll definitely go back!

I believe this place may have something to do with my card getting cloned. Very peculiar experience told I can only pay for my meal by cash then later told you can pay by card. I am sorry but I had a funny gut feeling about this place the moment I went in.

Pretty good overall, good service. The spicy seafood soup was very good, though the twice cooked pork was a bit heavy on the hot chilli oil and onions (not really a knock as it's sometimes cooked in that style). I can't quite figure out if it's a Korean or Chinese restaurant (has ramen and rice dishes), I think it's a fusion.
