Vip Chinese Restaurant in Kingston

VIP is great! It's an old Kingston staple that never seems to disappoint. The staff is always really nice and the owner is funny and great to chat with. It's almost always open, even during quarantine, for delivery and late night eats. 10/10 would recommend to a friend!

Cleanliness is not a top level concern. The waitress was courteous and fast.. the food was hot but not very flavorful.. broccoli and beef was mostly bean sprouts.. not a good value at all. Will not return.

Very Nice People Great service and Tasty Food and the Prices are Affordable

Food is good, service is nice, having my best time when I was at Kingston.

This place gives you good portions and the flavours are all there. Very worth the money

An average authentic chinnese food compared to toronto/montreal restaurants. But it is the best there is. Well I went there a bit late so it was their closing time already. The lady at the front was in a hurry and I made a quick choice of buying chicken fried rice, then later I found out what I should have ordered is "Yang Chow Fried Rice". After first bite, I was surprised. It was really good and well prepared. Overall I am satisfied with this place.

Ordered and got food delivered. Beef curry was filled with vegitables and very little beef. The beef was the consistency of marshmallows and the lemon chicken has so soggy that the texture made me gag. Chicken balls were mostly bread and hard as rocks. Extremely greasy too.Had a very, very sore stomach that night. Would not recommend.

Had take out and the rice portion was half the size of any other restaurant. It was cold and flovourless. The General Tao chicken was way too spicy and small portion. The only thing I enjoyed was the egg roll. Must be different owners because it never use to be that bad. Won't go there again.

I love this place. First time I stumbled across with friends and the general tso chicken was made fresh because it still had a crispness which I have never had in that dish. Friendly lady will definitely be a repeat customer don't listen to the picky Pete's out there!!

Great food, especially the spring rolls and egg rolls.

If you know how to read/speak Chinese you're gonna have a good time. I don't know how to read/speak Chinese... It's not great either but if you're really desperate I suppose. There is no quality Chinese food in Kingston IMO. Get the simple stuff like chicken balls and you won't be that disappointed.

I've been going there for over 10 years. The best Chinese food in Kingston.

Loved it ... reminded me of the food I ate while I was in china

Spent 45 mins getting an order settled for call in and they don't update the business so I have no way to know they are closed and sure as the day is long I go to call it in and they decided to close for no reason early

Price is too high

Food is tarrible got Wong tong soup chicken balls noodles and chicken fried rice the meat was the dumpling whatever was not pork-_- couldn't even eat it i had to spit it out rice was greesy and sticky.. Chicken balls tasted like fish.. And nobodies were just tarrible... I give this a 0

Food is ok. Place is rather dirty. Bathroom is disgusting

Real Chinese food. Finally a great place. Not fancy. Just real.

My go-to place for Chinese food nowadays. Their sweet and sour soup is excellent and we always get multiple portions of it. Everything else is pretty decent.

this place should get less than 1 star. Dec w5 2019 I pre ordered food at 1pm using skip the dishes as I figured they would be busy the delivery was suppose to be between 5:15 pm to 5:45 pm.The app said the food would be late so I called VIP and was told the food was gonna be 10 minutes longer, by 6:36pm the food still wasnt here so I called again to be told they needed 10 minutes more and when I explained how I ordered and what I was told when I called the first time the response was well were busy and you can cancel. I asked for a manager to be told one wasn't available because they were to busy by 7:30pm still no food and the driver for skip the dishes was told food wasn't ready so I cancelled the order as now the restaurant wasn't even answering the phone. How is this place still in business

Went to have dinner here because Wong's restaurant is temporarily closed and everybody I know who has ate here said the food is really good. I would have to disagree. Myself and my friend did not find the food good here and we will not be back.

This place has excellent food at good prices. Very fresh ingredients. Good service. If you ask for exactly what you want you will be very happy with your meal. They do family style but also combination plates. Good place for a group or family meal.

I Love this place..... Where else in Kingston can you build your own family meal.... There general Tso is fantastic I have been to other restaurants were it tasted like the chicken was thrown in bbq sauce and was disappointed. Always good/curiosity and reasonably priced.

Chicken balls

Went in with my daughter and the hot sauce on the table had mold in it. The soya sauce had food n crusty on it. Served water in dirty glasses. Showed server and she said sorry and grabbed from another table and still mold in the sauce. PLEASE DO NOT EAT HERE. Very unsanitary.

If you are looking for quite dinner this is not the place. It was ok for a last minute decision for dining out, but I won't return

First time ordering from there. Not very impressed, order came incomplete waited over an hour for the rest of the order. Food was good just not for the wait.

Always enjoy my food. Normally order take out, they always have my food ready on time.

Delivery took half the estimated time, it was very quick and the food was as hot and fresh as it would have been if I had dined in. I know everyone complains they want more meat. What they don't understand is a four ounce serving of protein is sufficient for any adult. North Americans are really the only culure that insists on a 12oz steak or Triple Cheeseburger. That being said, endulge us with a bit more. Otherwise, perfect as always.

This is the best place in Kingston for REAL Chinese food. Not too sure about the Canadianized dishes like chicken balls because I haven't had them. I do love their meaty egg rolls. Our favorite dishes are the brisket hot plates, mongolian beef, and triple crown. Had their General Tso a couple of times, and that was crispy and good as well. We always dine in, and the service is wonderful.

I ordered take-out from this place and was absolutely appalled at how terrible the service was. After I got the order, which was wrong, I called and told them the mistake they had made. As a vegetarian, I could not eat some of the food they had sent. They refused to replace the food and went so far as to tell me that what they had sent me was what I ordered! I would never order from here again.

Very dirty store and food was not that good

Very friendly, especially Johnson, could talk to him all night. Very friendly and polite for a teenager.

I used to order spring rolls from the VIP Restaurant a lot but the last time I ordered take out, the spring rolls were so incredibly salty (like someone had spilled salt in them) so that they were inedible. I complained but all they would do was to offer me 10 percent off my next order while our expensive dinner was garbage! I will never go here again! Terrible customer service!

Wow best eating experience I've ever had in Kingston!!

Very good

Love the food!

Food ok but place needs a major cleanup. Service was spotty, no wine despite it being on menu, small beer selection.

Loved it, best I've had in Kingston. Ordered through skip the dishes, everything was was packaged, amount was as expected, and excellent taste. Will definitely order again!

Very impressed with their knowledge and service. I am vegan with allergies so I had several questions and the gentleman that answered the phone was very well spoken and answered all of my questions fully and even offered to make the vegetable fried rice without egg for me which I greatly appreciated! The food arrived in about 20 minutes piping hot and everything was cooked perfectly. Portions are great (this is coming from a vegan with an inner fat kid). I will most definitely order from them again, food was good, and service was AMAZING!

Great food. Always friendly service. Best egg rolls in town!

I live nearby VIP. This place is a must try! Really amazing and REAL chinese food.If you want to try the best VIP, you need come as its fresher than delivery. tips before come: 1, bring a chinese friend.2, go to the last page of the menu (which is written on chinese) and let your friend help you make the choice. 3, that will be your best chinese meal forever.Must try (sorry, written in chinese， tried to trans): 干炒牛河 （fried rice noodle） 支竹牛腩（dont know english， but like beef with tofu） and 干煸四季豆（totally no clue how to trans）Something not good regarding the restaurant: Lightning inside the restaurant isnt sufficient. the environment is kind of dark. hope that doesnt influence your taste.

The owner changed and the taste is changed as well. I don't want to go there any more. The price is higher and quality is lower. 换老板了，不会再去了。

Awesome food good pricing

Nothing too exciting here however their general Tao chicken and spicy beef are very good dishes.

Tasty food, they can be found in the skip the dishes app so you can ask for a delivery.

I'm very happy the phone issues seemed to be resolved and they are answering again. Great food for the price. My favourite place for general tao chicken. The website still needs to be a lot more user friendly.

Good food, good portions, not too expensive and friendly staff

The food is ok, especially if you were craving fast food-like affordable Chinese food. Personally, I think the food is on the saltier side, but the portion sizes are good for the price you pay (1-2 servings per dish, depending on the person). Good for take out, eating solo, eating with small and large groups.
