Kungfu Kitchen 一品香 雷丁一品香 in Reading

Excellent food, extensive menu, owner is absolutely brilliant!

yes yes, the new cantonese KungFu kitchen is superb option to their present all round Chinese. fabulous duck (2 types) ymmu curry (proper south east asian) and the standard warm energetic hosts, even the boys doing their homework in the corner.

After having take-away from here a few times (and a little while ago), the opportunity came up to dine in and I was keen to try it out. We arrived early and it turns out sat next to the owner, who was very friendly and we ended up eating her recommendations. We had water boiled pork (excellent - some really deep and complex flavours going on), sweet and sour aubergine (delicious), cumin lamb (also delicious) and the deep-fried snow white mushrooms (delicious also - you get the point). They also had a significantly better beer selection than the pub down the road, we enjoyed a couple of pints of the new beer from Double Barreled. Can't wait to go back.

Very authentic and delicious Chinese food!

Overcharged us and thought we didn’t realise. Gave us dirty glasses that he (specifically) charged us for. Food was not as described. If possible, I would leave 0 stars rating. They also kept running in and out of their 2 shops and taking food in and out, which is a health and safety hazard.

Great food great staff, love the way Joanna will change your order in a good way. Food came fast and taste great will be back soon.

If I could give 0 I would. Rubbish customer service - overcharged us. Food was very sweet. Do not recommend one bit. Worst Chinese I’ve been to. Charged for tap water and glasses were very dirty.

The food was delicious, but the experience was soured by the behavior of the owner, who was rude and domineering. We witnessed her publicly berate and embarrass her staff over minor mistakes, creating an uncomfortable atmosphere for everyone around. She barely acknowledged customers waiting to be seated, curtly calling out “3 people” and ordering her staff to prepare a table before walking away. This, combined with a service charge after an error in our order—one she blamed on us while scolding her staff—ensures we won’t be returning. On a positive note, the man behind the bar was kind, handling our bill with professionalism and apologising on her behalf. The owner is sat on a gold mine but she needs to sort her behaviour out and learn some manners. I hope she reads this and turns herself into a better person.

Where to start. My husband has already written a review but i really feel I need to back him up with this. We only get 1 night a week together due to work commitments and always try to go out to new places for food. We have driven past a lot and decided last night was the night to attend. Worse mistake. We were given a table and left to look at the meal (all normal at this point) a young gentleman came to take our drinks order and after I ordered my drink, my husband said to the server that he had a red bull in his pocket if its OK to drink in here, he pulled it out of his pocket to show him and the serve says "yes thats fine and just to confirm 1 coke" I then received my drink and nothing was mentioned about just the 1 drink. After waiting 20 minutes to be served, we flagged a server down and he was great and went through the options with my husband to what he could have and also showed me another option as I just wanted the chicken and sweetcorn soup but on the main menu it was a shareable bowl. Also at this point the red bull was on the table fully visible. We started to receive the food at all different times however there was a big party in so this was fine we didn't mind waiting. The lady came over and just pointed at the table, she was carry rice so I mention o i am waiting for rice thinking this is what she meant. However she just shouted and said no outside drinks and pointed at the menu to say its printed on here no outside drinks. We apologised and said we did check with the waiter and she just got more and more angry. we said what would you like us to do, we can throw away if you want but she just walked off. The server also then lied and said we never showed him however multiple people attended our table and didn't say anything. He seemed very young and maybe new to the role and we understand this can be hard to admit when wrong, we have all been there. Every time she walked past us she made a point of no outside drinks, my husband then said what would you like us to do, and said the way you are speaking if really disrespectful can you please just explain what can be done. But no she just got worse and worse to the point after 2 mouthfuls of my food I stood up and said nope we are not excepting this. She was shouting at us across the restaurant in front of all the guests making us look to be the worse people in the world. This went on for about 20 minutes, this was because she said she called the police so we didn't want to leave and cause more problems for ourselves. Myself and husband both apologised multiple times to the other guests and wished them a good evening. We ended up just not answering her anymore as you couldn't possibly get a word in and just made it worse so dealt with 2 other staff members who unfortunately had to deal with the after affect. It was obvious the police were not called and we came to an agreement with the 2 staff members that we would happily pay for what we had but would not be paying the full meal as we have not been able to eat it in peace. After reading through the comments on here you can see we are not the only people to have an issue with this woman. She is truly a disgrace and should not be in this industry with her attitude. We could have just walked out and not paid but thats not who we are, state why we paid for what we had. I would highly recommend you avoid this restaurant or even just avoid when she is working.

I have been living near this restaurant for nearly 3 years. I have very good friends from Thailand Hong Kong Malaysia Philippines. I have eaten food all over the world in 1000s of different restaurants. So tonight I decided to try this local Chinese restaurant I have been passing for work a long time, debating to go in. I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO A WORSE RESTAURANT IN MY LIFE ! They have a female manager that has zero business running a restaurant. she is an embarrassment to the trade. She thought it was acceptable to raise her voice at me in front of a full restaurant of people. If you were thinking of going here I would choose literally any other place in Reading. I left a £50 full table of food practically untouched paying for what I did eat on my exit. worst £18 bill I ever payed. What an embarrassment ! do not ever eat here it should be closed down. Disgrace

Just been there. I have american express card so i just asked if they accept one before i order any then i got immediate rude reply of NO by one of the rude receptionist. She even go on to say that she is chinese and doesn't accept any american card. What a racist!!! Then rest of team member started gigling. OMG I am surprised and embarrased at the same time. Never ever encountered such a RUDE, RACIST, UNFRIENDLY and UNWELCOMING restaurant in my whole life. Really??? What do the think of themself? Please AVOID this restaurant.

KungFu Kitchen is by far the best Chinese Restaurant in Reading. I've tried lots of food from different Chinese restaurants but this is the best in terms of quality of ingredients, quantity taste, and presentation. And the extra attention to detail for every single order I've placed because i have lots of allergies and dletary requirements. Their black bean sauce it very authentic and sweet and sour sauce too . They never disappoint.

It was good for a local restaurant and the servers was very pleasant.

This is the best Chinese (takeaway as we've not eaten in) we have found in the area. We keep trying others, but nothing compares and we keep coming back. Good portions and always tasty. Delivery is always excellent.

Horrible food. Lacking flavour. Terrible service by the rude workers. Service was slow. Definitely would not recommend

First time visit to the restaurant tonight and the food was excellent. Crispy chilli beef and Kung Pao chicken was fantastic, salt and pepper chips also delicious! Food was served quickly and service was great. It was also quite busy so there was a good atmosphere. Will definitely go back in future!

The food here is delicious with good big portions. The service here is lovely, the staff explained the menu thoroughly and made sure that we were happy, and had such cheerful energy 😊 The atmosphere and decorations were also good.

Simply the best Chinese food I've had in Reading. Authentic and tasty.

Our anniversary visit. Now, 2 locations, and Madam owner was in the other one! Still, family run these places so getting recommendations is wise. Most importantly the food is excellent.

For the price our meal was tiny. Not impressed

A lovely clean and airy restaurant with an interesting menu and friendly and knowledgeable staff. We tried the pigs ears and spicy beef rice and the waiter recommended the garlic sprouts with black fungus. Will definitely go again, and we also need to try out their sister dim sum cafe just a few buildings down the road!

Amazingly delicious Chinese food! A really interesting menu with all the ‘usuals’, plus some other really tasty dishes. The restaurant was busy with lots of locals. The staff were attentive and friendly. It was a great bustling, friendly atmosphere. Great value for money. Will definitely be back!

I was thoroughly pleased with my experience here. A truly authentic Cantonese dining experience which is rare or butchered at most places; Kung Fu Kitchen excels with both cuisine and atmosphere. Our waitress was lovely, and the host was incredibly welcoming and charismatic - throughly entertaining, knowledgeable, and fill of good tips and tidbits. I had spring rolls, crispy squid, and black bean beef with crispy noodles; all of which were delectable. I will be returning time and time again.

So pleased we finally managed to visit this authentic and tasty Chinese restaurant which caters extremely well for gluten free and vegan diets. It was bustling on a Saturday night but the staff were efficient and friendly. My wife loved the gluten free chicken sweet & sour and I’d like to try the vegan version next time but enjoyed my spicy home fried tofu plus a shared seasonal veg, all washed down with local Loddon beer with gluten free options. The full meal with drinks worked out about £25/head including the service charge that I was happy to pay. Overall a must visit for anyone in the area

My wife called this place on the off chance when our usual local was closed and WOW, we are never turning back now. When my wife gave our order the lady said(very nicely) our order "was not Chinese food". She explained that they were an authentic Chinese food restaurant and said she wood send us food as close to that my wife had ordered. WELL, the food was absolutely deliciously fantastic and I always tell people when they say about getting a Chinese tonight "order from Kung Fu kitchen. It's a little more expensive than your run of the mill takeaway, and I mean just a "little" bit(about £4 more than I would have expected for four people elsewhere) , I tell you I am more than happy with that as you certainly get what you pay for. And you know what, the lady even phoned us back to ask us if our food was satisfactory. OUR WHOLE EXPERIENCE WAS MORE THAN SATISFACTORY LET ALONE THE FOOD. YOU AINT HAD CHINESE FOOD LOCALLY UNTIL YOU HAVE HAD IT FROM HERE.

Great food really enjoyed our first time there it won't be the last

We love Kungfu kitchen Jo and Steven are great hosts

Food has been absolutely amazing. We had some takeaway as we often do and udon noodles and braised aubergines were fantastic. We have gone here for a long time and all the food has been amazing. The owners are lovely as well. Definitely recommend

The food was ok But the plate is very dirty so ask them to wash it again for you The service was horrible the guy who served the food was very rude and and kind

THE best authentic Chinese cooking I have ever found in the UK. Delicious. This is a restaurant committed to offering "proper" food; real food, beautifully prepared. The dynamic owner, Joanna, will happily make suggestions of dishes to try based on listening to likes and dislikes, so everyone has a great food experience. After a recommendation I travelled almost 200 miles for a meal here - yes really - and honestly it was well worth the drive... thank you to Joanna and team!

Should have listened to my Chinese colleagues and not gone there. Very poor service and even charge for tap water. I think the regulators should look into them.

Very bad service attitude when order meals there. Don't let customers having different options. Never come to this restaurant again. What is the most famous tea in China? The ten most famous teas in China are mainly green tea, including: Longjing, Longjing, Dongting Biluochun, Huangshan Maofeng, Lu'an Guapian, Xinyang Maojian and Duyun Maojian, all of which are very delicious green teas. The rest include Anxi Tieguanyin, an oolong tea, Wuyi Rock Tea, another delicious oolong tea, Qimen which is a strong black tea, and Junshan Silver Needle which is actually a yellow tea.

The best Chinese restaurant in Reading, without a shadow of a doubt!

food is amazing, however the service from the lady is very hot or cold. One day she is happy and friendly, the next she is angry and rude.

Amazing quality of food and amazing that Gluten Free is available! The owner is ever knowledgable about allergens and happy to adapt items on the menu to suit. I have only used as a takeaway and delivery but must come and have a meal in as soon as I can!

Braised pork trotters are delicious😋👍

The food is lovely and authentic. We really enjoyed it. We ordered Kung Pao Chicken, King Prawns with Chinese Mushrooms and Salt and Pepper Chicken Wings.

Proper authentic Chinese dishes, not a chow mein in sight! Always welcoming, Joanna is always fun and recommends great dishes to try. Don’t be squeamish, try something new. The special pots are interesting, love the Turkish cabbage. We always buy too much, then box it up to take home for another meal the next day.

Food was great and authentic. Generally large portions and full of flavours. Would highly recommend the food. However, one aspect really ruined the experience for us, namely the owner of the place. She would loudly and over-enthusiastically greet, help and tend to 'certain' customers, sometimes bordering on aggressive. As the customer on the next table remarked to me after her order was taken, "She's quite a character isn't she". I get that this type of customer service might be well suited for some because it shows friendliness and willingness to help, but others might prefer a more laid-back approach, and might even interpret her actions as rude or overbearing. We just found her to be especially loud and it ruined the atmosphere for us a little. More importantly, on the 'certain' customers, we noticed that the owner (ethnically Chinese) would only tend to white customers. As a fellow Chinese customer, we were seated between two tables with white customers, and the difference in customer service cannot be overstated. She would enthusiastically greet, help them and tend to their every need; but pretty much ignore us or immediately delegate her two other employees to serve us. We weren't 100% sure at first, but after observing her customer service to other Chinese and white customers around the restaurant, we noticed that she couldn't spare any of her time and attention to her Chinese customers and would rather be over-friendly to our white counterparts. At the end when we asked for the bill (to one of her employees), since she seemed to be the only one able to operate the register, she took a long time to get to it. She literally tended to every other white table before generating our bill, and again asking one of the employees to come to our table instead of herself. Weirdly, we were told we would get a discount if we paid cash instead of card (is this tax avoidance I'm not sure), but none of the white customers sat beside us were told this when they paid, and they paid with card. (And the owner brought the bill to their tables personally) I'm not sure what was going on, but that definitely smelled fishy. All in all, maybe there was a reason for the different ways we were treated compared to the white guests, but we definitely walked away feeling unimportant and deflated because of our skin colour. In conclusion, if you're white and don't mind a bit of over-friendly customer service, I'm sure you'll have a great time. If you're ethnically Chinese, I might suggest getting takeaway from there instead.

New location, same excellent food as always. A must visit

The most authentic Chinese food in all of Berkshire by a million mile! Also tailor to allergies, 10/10

Great customer service. The lady suggested some great dishes. Friendly atmosphere. 10/10 recommended.

Fantastic food and ambience - friendly staff and authentic menu

The food tastes quite authentic and the ingredients are good. Some of the dishes are more delicious than those in China. A service fee of 10% to 15% will be charged at checkout, so you need to check it carefully. The attitude of the boss lady is up and down, it would be better if it was more stable 😉

One of the best dumplings I have had! We went to Kungfu Kitchen with zero expectations for an impromptu weekday dinner and had such a lovely meal. I can’t wait to go back and try more of their dishes.

We went there to have good time but lady serving us was very rude with kids. 😞

Able to get us a table even if we didn't book one. Friendly staff. Seems always busy. The food was delicious and there was a good variety of choices for vegetarians too.

Absolutely fantastic food and wonderful service - Jo helped us choose which dishes to go for and all were delicious.

This restaurant transported me back to my travels around China 14 years ago; authentic and delicious! They have a huge dedicated vegan menu, from which we have tried quite a few of the dishes over two visits to date. The salt and pepper white mushroom and beans is a standout winner. So light and crispy, yet not oily at all. The special pot potato, stir fried aubergine & fine bean, mock duck, hot & sour soup and stir fried potatoes, peppers & aubergine are also all delicious. The staff are all super friendly and happy to make recommendations - and there's a great buzz in the restaurant. You can tell most people are regulars. We can't wait to go back and try more of their vegan menu. 100% recommend!

Steering clear from this place. The Chinese waitress (female, short and big) constantly shouting, at one point, she’s screamed in the kitchen. All guests were so concerned and wondered whether there’s a murder was going on in kitchen 😅 awful food and over priced and over charged.

This place is terrible. I'm very surprised to see people are writing nice comments, and I don't think they are genuine. The food is awful and overpriced. The staff is very rude. They even charge for tap water!!!! I've never seen a restaurant which charges for you tap water, and then for all the bad service, they charge you gratitude fee. Never ever!

Had some takeaway from here, really nice friendly staff.

rude owner, below average food and unpleasant atmosphere, please improve!

Manager/owner shouting around. Food very salty too much msg. How people can eat that. Yuk

The food is of average quality, the lady boss communicates well with the guests, and the environment is clean.

Outstanding food and service from Kung Fu Kitchen catering at very very short notice for an event with 70 guests. Wonderful flavours.

Delicious authentic Chinese food with lots of dishes and dietary options to choose from.

Very helpful and polite server helped me with choosing a couple Northern Chinese authentic heat-level dishes. He was rightly proud of their food. Nice Mala on the water boiled fish and wonderfully savoury broth on the noodles. Stir fried fungus and greens to finish. Some of the most ‘authentic’ Chinese in UK to date. Mainly Asian patrons while I was there on a Monday lunch. Huge portions! Maximum flavour and good service. Great find for an authentic, inexpensive fix!

Great Discovery! Great advices from the owner. The food and the experience was awesome!

The manager was screaming at the staff the whole time all the staff was stressed and ruined the whole vibe The food was ehhh and was the wrong order but I did not say anything as I felt worried about the staff getting screamed at never going again and telling my friends and family to never go there

I think the restaurant is okay for most people. A lot of the traffic appeared to be returning customers. For us, the taste of the food paled in comparison to Chinese cuisine we have become accustomed to in different countries. For the atmosphere, it felt more like a corner-shop restaurant than fine dining Chinese. One very excellent thing was the staff. They were cheerful, helpful and quite professional.

Have a been here a few times and each time we’ve had exceptional food, in a casual and lively atmosphere Staff are exceptionally helpful and clearly passionate about food, so leave it in their hands to pick a few dishes for you. Really great value, especially with a larger group where you can try a bit more of everything since the dishes were very large. Can’t wait to come back!

The best ever, super Joanna. Great experience Dumplings better than Italian tortellini

Recommended by a friend and did not disappoint. Beautiful food, will be back!

Awful food and bad service, will not visit again.

great service and good, always look forward to return

Non-edible item (was taken out from my mouth) found in the meat dish as shown in the image attached. The staff whom I approached for clarification responded with the following words: "I don't know, what do you expect me to answer?" before promptly leaving without addressing my concerns. There was also another staff (does not seem to be able to speak English) coming to our table and asked us to picked up the food left in one dish to another dish ourselves in case she can collect the empty plate earlier. The restaurant with such service seem to be spoiled for a while by the nearby University (Chinese) students who normally complain less. As a big fan of Chinese food, I will not pay any further visit.

Glorious food, what a nice buzz in the restaurant! Can’t stop thinking about it. Want to return asap

Joanna's welcome and hospitality is wonderful! Traditional Chinese food which is tasty, fresh and plentiful. We will be back! Thanks for making us so welcome.

We had an impromptu visit on a wet midweek lunchtime, and took our small and well behaved dog since it was quiet day. Lovely welcoming staff, and the food here is fabulous. We have been here a few times now and it never disappoints. Having travelled in the Far East we had almost stopped eating Chinese food in the UK because it is so poor, but not here! This is the best and most authentic Chinese restaurant in Reading. Do take advice on what to order from the staff, and don't expect it to be the awful takeaway fare we are used to. Fabulous. We'll be back....

We used Kung Fu Kitchen for a work event catering for 100 people. The food was delicious!! I chose Kung Fu Kitchen because they were able to offer more authentic Chinese food; and they did not disappoint! We are very grateful to Jo and the rest of the team for catering for us and adapting to everyone's dietary needs (vegan, halal, gluten free). All of the food was finished and we ordered a good mix of spring rolls, vegan dishes such as braised aubergines, stir fried potato & aubergine, chicken in chili, cumin and coriander, sweet & sour chicken and a variety of vegan, pork and chicken dumplings. I'd highly recommend everyone to try their food if you get the chance to! I wish I lived closer so I could try more of their food!!

This place is the opposite of how you feel after ordering and eating a Chinese takeaway. Our server was so helpful. Everything was delicious! Great value. Family feel.

We were accepted as a late booking for Chinese New Year celebrations and they even waited for our late arrival before starting the Dragon Dance celebrations - exceptional customer focus! The food was outstanding and authentic and a large selection of items to choose from, certainly the best place in the area for Asian food and the service from management and staff was excellent. The flavours, taste, texture, heat (every dish served piping hot) and spice from Kung Fu Kitchen make the dining experience and we shall be coming back regularly. The pricing is well positioned and you won't regret quality.

It was busy when we went for dinner, The food was lovely, happy with the service,

The food is great. The tips on my bill were added automatically, a hidden service charge. I am not happy about that.

One of the most rude people you’re likely to be served by in your lifetime. Overcharges and hopes you won’t notice, then shouts at you if you do. Benefits from the fact that Reading Uni has a lot of Chinese students and there aren’t any other Chinese restaurants near the uni.

The restaurant has a chalk - written café menu outside, which includes English breakfast from £7.95. I had an English breakfast, and the bacon was rancid. It should have been thrown away and replaced. The sausages and beans did not seem very fresh either. It is unacceptable to serve customers sub-standard quality food, no matter if this is a restaurant specialized in Chinese food. If the owners do not feel capable of cooking decent English breakfasts, then stop serving them altogether.

This Chinese restaurant is very Chinese. Plates are big. And full. Go with friends. Order a selection. I say order, I mean request as we were very firmly instructed to change some dishes as we had not achieved the correct balance. All part of the fun, and the food was wonderful. Beer and wine were fine. But it is the authentic food that will draw you back. Any place that serves pig intestines with chili really knows their stuff. Now I'm not recommending that you order it, I didn't, but I was delighted to see it in the menu,

Very authentic and nice Chinese food, and friendly staff!!!

Nicee we good, but too salty. Service friendly

First visit to Kung Fu Kitchen. Everyone talks about the food here and now I know why. With the help of the lady owner we chose a great selection for 4 people. Including scallops , Gizards , chicken, pork and more. Huge menu so if in doubt or unsure it’s better to ask. The food was excellent and the service we had from the owners made the experience that much better. Great selection of beer too. Worth a second visit as there is so much to try. Simple restaurant with great authentic food 😁👏👏

Best Chinese meal I've had for years. Steamed scallops, Fish fragrant pork, spicey shredded potatoes,spice dry fried green beans, stir fried lamb and Leeks. All good. Local beer too

Our favourite Chinese restaurant by a country mile. Serves the best authentic Chinese food; so much better than 99% restaurants in London. You can try food outside of the usual westernised "chow mein" and eat delicious Dan Dan noodles, kung-fu pao chicken, mapo Tofu and Di xan xian (Aubergine, potatoes and peppers). Generous portions, tasty wide range of dishes and fantastic friendly hosts. We wished we were local as we'd be there every week.

Great authentic Chinese food. Delicious!

Food was good. They managed to squeeze us in on a busy Friday night when we had not booked by shuffling tables around. Order process a little slow . Waiter suggested we share aparticular dish, I declined to which he continued to persist that we share for a good minute before conceededing that was not what the customer wanted.

The host were both welcoming and friendly great food 😋 plenty of it great atmosphere throughly enjoyed the evening

Joanna is so knowledgeable about allergen, gluten free and celiac. If you have allergies I definitely recommend this place as the staff are so helpful. Great service and food.

Wow,what a hidden little gem,,visited on Monday with an elderly client and Co worker,we were made to feel welcome and the staff were so helpful and friendly, as for the food ,absolutely amazing, authentic and totally addictive, what true chinese food should be ,will be back as often as I can,thankyou Kung-fu kitchen,Joanne and all your staff x

Best Chinese food I've ever had. Large vegan menu too!

Great restaurant with fantastic service! Will come back again!

Authentic Chinese restaurant with great food and great staff. I would happily recommend this to anyone who enjoys Chinese food or wants to try something new.

Usually order 5 or 6 dishes for family takeaway. Food still good quality but have noticed on last 2 visits that both portion and container sizes have noticeable shrunk. Also on meat dishes more padding of peppers & onions evident so reducing the value for money. Also less noodles in noodles only dishes. I guess these are ways of keeping the prices unchanged, but feel a bit cheated with less food to eat !

Best chineese meal I have ever had. Restaurant a bit chaotic but was busy. Food excellent

First visit to Kung-fu Kitchen tonight and happy to say it is definitely worth a visit, fresh food full of flavour. If you are after an authentic Chinese meal then you will not find better anywhere in reading. Be aware not to over order as portion sizes are enough for 4. The owners are very friendly so ask for some recommendations to guide you on what to eat. Cant wait to go back.

We had a friend gathering tonight, other than the dishes ordered, one of us ordered a drink, and the other would just like to have tap water. At the end of our meal and check the bill, we found we are charged with a £0.5/person of a 'glass charges' except the one who ordered a drink. This is the first time we heard about this charge, and I feel this is very dishonest, as no one mentioned about that when we ordering the drink or requesting for the tap water. We tried to ask and confirm again if the tap water is offered for free. The staff replied the tap water is free, but the glasses are not. This is absolutely absurd. For the righteousness, I won't recommend this restaurant.

This is a so-so Chinese restaurant. The taste is close to other old style Chinese restaurant, in English variation. Some dishes are not bad, but cannot say delicious. The most ridiculous is the "Water Glass Charge" of £0.5. Service charge is also more than 10% which does not seem to have extra services.

The restaurant serves authentic Chinese food. Every dish we had was scrumptious. The restaurant is welcoming and the service is excellent. Always serving with a BIG smile. Our family's most favourite restaurant.

Lovely food, big portions, attentive service!!!

Authentic Chinese food! Having lived in China (great Chinese food everywhere) and London (can find it if you look hard enough ) was absolutely overjoyed to finally find genuine Chinese food in Reading. Having sampled other "Chinese" restaurants in the area, tried Kung Fu kitchen and got the real deal. Freshly prepared dishes with authentic ingredients. My wife and I had the pork in sweet bean sauce with pancakes and two spicy beef dishes. Each was delicious. Service was excellent and rapid. Top notch.

If you're looking for typical British-Chinese takeaway food, this isn't the place for you. If you're looking for authentic food that you could actually find in a restaurant in China, get booking a table! The food was incredible, and the owners are hilarious. We thought it was a little pricey at first but then realised it's because the portions are HUGE, and the prices are totally justified.
