Very unassuming from the outside, but the food is downright increible! Good, honest, Chinese food. More

Order off the fresh sheets posted on the walls, or browse the menu. There's something for everyone, including mild to spicy. The portions are generous and many locals were enjoying themselves while we were there. I had a noodle dish that was perfect and my husband had a rice dish. We had to share since both dishes were so good. More

The food and the service here are always great. I much prefer the more authentic Asian cuisine available at the Ky Chow to the highly-Westernized versions they serve at some other places. The only unfortunate side about the Ky Chow is that it's always very busy. This can only mean that lots of people like the place. But with so... More

I've eaten at this restaurant for the last 10 year, on average once a month. Apart from one occasion when the rice felt a bit soggy, never had other complains. They have gone a bit upmarket since moving to their new place in gouger street closer to king William road however the food is just as delicious, service quick, price... More

You can always rely on the food being great here. Get the shallot pancakes to start off your meal and it will only get better after that. More

I lived in Adelaide for over 10 years, first as a student, then as a working adult. I have now moved to Melbourne for over 2 years but still come home to Adelaide frequently. I think it's a testament to this restaurant that with each trip home, a meal here is one of the must-dos for me. Having been a... More
