    Kin Lin's Interests
GeneralWe are proud of the national and local awards that have been bestowed upon us. Thank you for your support!

Please take a moment, cast a vote and leave a comment HERE for this year's Top 100 Chinese Restaurants in the USA vote. We know we can count on your support. We're confident will get the highest vote tally in the KC area & Missouri. Thanks!

In 2007 we were blessed to be included in the prestigious Top 100 Chinese Restaurants in the USA. This group is a national organization that strives to recognize, cultivate and preserves the best in Chinese cuisine standards. Thanks to our customers and staff. You are the best too.

No more searching for scrumptious Chinese food. Kin Lin was the proud recipient of the 2007-08 BEST OF CITYSEARCH at www.CitySearch.com with a four and a half out of five star rating.

In 2005 & 2007 we were pleased to recieve the AOL CityGuide Best Of Award but also check out what the AOL CityGuide Editor wrote about Kin Lin:

"A longtime Brookside favorite, Kin Lin has built its reputation on serving good, authentic Chinese food at very low prices. That's why it's been such a hit with its neighborhood residents, who range from retirees to UMKC students to young families. Still, you don't have to live in the neighborhood in order to drop by for something from one of the fastest woks in the West. The lunch specials make a drive across town worth the trip. (It doesn't matter if you order one entree or ten -- the folks at the counter will tell you the wait will be 10 minutes, and they'll mean it.) On any day there are nearly 20 lunch entrees priced about $4, each one including crab rangoon and fried rice. Dinner prices are worth the drive, too. "Regular" sized entrees are big but are all under $6, including seafood dishes; the truly hungry can get their entrees in the large size for under $8. Kin Lin's friendly staff will be happy to make recommendations from their large menu or change any dish to suit your tastes. And if your tastes include a hankerin' for good Chinese food served quickly, head in to Kin Lin." -- Anna Foote

In '05 we also recieved the very top #1 BEST CHEAP CHINESE RESTAURANT award from our friends at the alternative weekly publication The Pitch. Thanks all!

Menu Price Change Notice.
Unfortunately, due to our rising costs, we have had to implement menu price changes effective August 15, 2008. Most menu items have changed moderately. We strive hard to deliver value!

We still have great lunch specials from 11AM to 3PM, but we no longer have lunch specials of the day. Enjoy!

Who I'd like to meet:

Hungry patrons and friendly folks. UMKC students and faculty. East Plaza residents. Retired Folks. People from all over the Kansas City metro area and the world.

I'm 4th generation KC, the last 3 of which lived on or near the Plaza so I know my town and neighborhood. Kin Lin is it. Not only is it the best value chinese restaurant in KC, its the best value restaurant in KC.

In '89 I started a oil info and trading business in the nearby KC Board of Trade. I started coming to Kin Lin shortly thereafter because I liked it better that the Chinese resturant in that building. I'll admit it. I'm biased because I'm a regular. But there's many good reasons why I've become a regular. I've had 3 or 4, sometimes 5 lunches a week ever since. Not only is it a good value but there's great variety with plenty of healthy options. Check out the menu above! And use it for take out and delivery too. Good food and good folks. Their Hunan and Curry dishes are excellent. UmmUmm Almond Chicken! Hardy. Satisfying. And what a superior alternative to the nearby Plaza places.
