" I've been trying new local takeout places and decided to give Ken's a shot. The service was pleasantly prompt, and the owners were friendly. However, the quality of the food was subpar. It lacked the punch of authentic Chinese flavors. The egg rolls were quite satisfactory, but everything else fell flat. I would recommend them if you just want a quick meal, but not if you’re after an authentic experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" It was my first visit to Ken's recently. I noticed a cozy setup inside and friendly staff to greet me, but the food was disappointing. I ordered the shrimp fried rice, thinking it would be flavorful, but it was quite bland without any depth of flavor. The shrimp was very small and looked minimal in the mix. Overall, I felt I didn't get my money's worth. I might give it another try, but I'm not optimistic. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had not heard good things about Ken's Restaurant but decided to give it a chance. The staff were inviting, and the space was clean, but the food was bewildering. I tried the chicken fried rice and was stunned to find that the rice was overcooked and seasoned poorly. The chicken was minimal and not fulfilling at all. I won’t be going back anytime soon. I’d rather go to a chain where I know what to expect. " (*Curated Review*)

" I don’t think I will ever understand the hype around Ken’s Restaurant. Sure, the service was friendly, but the food needed a lot of work. My chicken chow mein was just bland without any 'wow' factor. Portions were fine, but I cannot justify the prices for what was served to me. At this point, the only thing I can recommend are the spring rolls, as they’re the only decent item on the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can’t say my experience at Ken's was terrible, but it wasn’t great either. The food was a bit uninspired. I had a noodle dish that was too salty, and the portion sizes felt just okay—not too generous. Though I do appreciate the prompt service, I wouldn't urge friends to visit here if they're serious about enjoying Chinese fare. " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, Ken's Restaurant is a local disappointment. I was excited after hearing about it but my meal was downright bad. The spring rolls were satisfactory but the main dishes were unappealing. The chicken was rubbery and the sauces felt generic. The service was personable, but at the end of the day, food quality matters the most. I left hungry and unsatisfied. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a decent takeout experience with Ken's, but I can't say it was complicated. The pork chop suey was actually enjoyable, but everything else seemed average and lacking any flair. Service was polite, but if you're wanting something more, I would not recommend going here. It’s just not that special compared to alternatives around. " (*Curated Review*)
