Guestbook & Reviews

Customer Reviews

I usually get either general taos or sesame chicken that comes with the plain or stir fried white rice and an egg roll. The price is amazing for the quantity you get. I used to get crab ragoons every time I visited but after they started putting less filling in it I stopped ordering it pretty much, though the filling is still really good. I've been coming here for years and I highly recommend. I've had the ribs here a couple times and those are decent too. Also bring cash, that's all they take. Sometimes there is a bit of a wait time and it may take a little bit before you can even order if you don't call ahead.

I always have a wonderful experience with Best Kitchen. Their food is excellent across the board. I moved from Jamestown to Buffalo and haven’t been able to find Chinese food this excellent in Buffalo, so I make special trips down to Jamestown just for Best Kitchen takeout. Sounds crazy, but worth it. It is cash only, and the owners are the nicest people. Dumplings, beef curry, and wonton soup are must-haves when you visit.

I love this place! I have never had a bad experience here. The Chicken Chow Mai Fun and shrimp egg rolls are my favorite, but everything I've tried here has been delicious. The folks who work here are always upbeat and friendly, and even when they are super busy, orders are completed quickly. By far one of the best Chinese take away restaurants I've been to!
