This is a Cantonese-style Chinese restaurant. It's on the basement floor, and it feels rather stuffy inside. Without an appointment, we had a Chinese meal, which was a Chinese morning tea. Wait for about five minutes and then sit down. After ordering, you have to wait a long time, but you can serve it all at once. It still tastes good. Waiters, they are very busy. When we ask for tea and pay, we need to raise our hands and ask them to come. As it was too hot inside, we ate and left immediately.

An A-M-A-Z-I-N-G Cantonese restaurant, with rich flavors coming from China! The food was authentic and came out very, very quickly. Even though it was almost closing time, the hearts of the people working here were big enough to let us in, which is an indication of top notch service in our book. If you're a Chinese food lover (or just a foodie in general), then come down to Kirin Restaurant and eat your heart out (and hopefully don't suffer from blood loss after your heart is missing, because ya ate it)!

So glad we stumbled upon this place. Good Food. Enjoyed every single morsel of everything we had.Service was great, servers were very attentive, and food came out fast.

Solid dim sum options. Sesame coconut balls were mind blowing ? chrispy seseme outside with mochi chewy layer to follow. Soup dumplings were on point along with all other dumpling options. The steamed buns were amazing, cloud like. Traditional food made simply per order.

Cool! I am a loner I ate her alone looking for peace n quite. Unfortunately there was a crying baby next to me and a speaker playing baby shark ON LOOP FOR LIKE 45 MINUTES! but I still liked the food

Service was excellent!!! Friendly and quick to get the food after ordering.

Great food and service, highly recommend!

I was in Hawaii for vacation and had dinner here with my family and it was AMAZING! The food and the service was excellent! We all enjoyed this place. The Dungeness Crab is a must try!

The only good thing about this place is that the servers are very attentive. Not worth any amount of money. Food is either overly cooked and overly seasoned or not seasoned at all. Food is terrible.

An authentic Chinese (Cantonese) restaurant! Got an online reservation for dinner on the same day. It may not seem fancy compared to other restaurants in the area, but the service and quality of food were top notch. Round tables and wooden tables and chairs definitely make it feel like a traditional Chinese restaurant. The roast duck (half) was delicious and it's better than the Cantonese restaurants in Manhattan Chinatown. The grilled fish was light and seasoned just right. The tofu dish went well with rice. My husband and I definitely enjoyed our dinner and left satisfied. The price was around the same as the restaurants in the area, but the portions were a bit larger. Highly recommend!
