Contribute Feedback What Luwei Ge likes about Kim's Oriental Foods:
I hadn’t had salt pepper spare ribs(椒盐排骨)cooked this way for a long time so I was very happy.I am still giving 5 stars because I personally didn’t care too much. But I noticed a small piece of plastic (from a plastic bag or something like that) in the rice. I guess this happens when you have a small kitchen on a truck. View all feedback.
What Evangelos S doesn't like about Kim's Oriental Foods:
conveniently and inconspicuously located right off penn's campus, this food truck serves pretty standard chinese food. ordered the hunan chicken and service was really quick, though coming at a higher price than other food trucks, the meal left a bit to be desired. the portion size was good, but the chicken wasn't too flavorful. they only take cash too, which is something to keep in mind if you, like me, don't normal...

It is economical and the portion is very large. It is said that the beef brisket rice is delicious, but the quantity of beef brisket rice is limited, so it is best to buy it before twelve o'clock.There are a lot of people in line, and it takes about fifteen minutes to wait.
Happy downstairs dining car Potato sirloin is very good?
Kim's used to be such a bargain but they (albeit like everyone else) raised their prices earlier this fall as Penn students came back to town. I've still been a few times cause the portions are large but the 30-40% markup is disappointing. The food is still usually pretty good depending on what you order; I'm not a fan of the Ginger chicken but other noodle dishes have been good. Today, they finally had the oriental beef available so I ordered it and walked back to my office. Low and behold, they served me up a box of sweet and sour tofu??? I'm so confused because the gentleman taking orders clearly heard me and charged me $11 for the beef... but this is obviously not what I ordered. With the disappearance of Yu Kee, there's just less Chinese food trucks overall but I feel like Kim's has sadly started to slip in recent years.

Having been to many authentic Chinese restaurants, perhaps my review is biased because i have high standards, but the food here is okay. Portions are generous and food costs around $7.5-10/11. Service is fast but that also means food won't be as good as your best Chinese restaurants. Overall, support small business like Kim's but compared to good chinese restaurants, it's okay. In order of preference, I've had: 1) 红烧肉 braised pork, 2) sesame chicken, 3) 湖南鸡 hunan chicken.
