Reviews
- thin_crocodileZhang's Kitchen is honestly so good!! The kung pao chicken had this perfect sweet and tangy thing going on, the mapo tofu was unreal with rice — I could eat a whole bowl just because of that, the dry pot dish smelled amazing, and the homemade yogurt was super refreshing and cut right through all the grease. The place itself was clean and tidy, service was really warm and attentive, and food came out fast too. Portions are generous and the prices are super fair, perfect for hanging out with friends or a family dinner. Definitely a hidden gem for home-style cooking, I'm gonna be coming back here over and over!
