Delicious! It’s always good to read about new eateries in Center Point. I’m not sure how long Asian Kitchen has been open because work, etc., mostly takes me in the opposite direction. Fortunately, last night while on Google Maps, I saw it listed along with lots of very positive reviews. Today, after an appointment and some shopping, I stopped in for a late( after 2 pm)lunch.
There’s a decent sized parking lot out front of the place which is on the left side of the road going north on Center Point Pkwy.
They do have several versions of Philly Steak sandwiches, if Asian food isn’t your thing. I ordered the Mongolian Beef and Mushroom Chicken entrees with a side of vegetables. They offer 1 entree with a side, 2 entrees with a side and 3 entrees with a side combos as well as family sized combos. I was told right away that the entrees would have to be prepared and that the wait would be seven minutes. Certainly, not much time to wait for hot, fresh food. Meanwhile, another waiting customer got her somewhat large take out order and responded that she had gotten food from Asian Kitchen multiple times. I also checked out the very clean ladies room and took a quick picture while I waited.
When I was called to the counter for pickup, they apologized for the wait (which didn’t seem much over the estimated seven minutes to me)and stuck a little bonus bag on top of my order.
Bonus was 3 light, crispy crabmeat rangoon. Those quickly disappeared! They put the three things I had ordered all together in one box without any real delineation between the items. Considering my order was just for me that was no problem, and I’m sure they would adjust packing to individual preferences, but it is something you might like to be aware of.
Everything was hot and delicious, once I had made the 1.2 mile trip home and had the ice cream (Aldi) in the freezer. As stated above, the crab rangoon was gone first. All the veggies including zucchini, carrots, broccoli, onions, peppers and green onions were cooked, but still crispy. The sauce was flavorful and fresh tasting with no hint of anything artificial.
Bottom line is that I’m cheering for another awesome eatery now open in Center Point, Alabama. I’m going to make it a habit of frequenting my neighborhood restaurants as often as possible to help keep them thriving and hope lots of others will do the same. Especially because everyone working there is friendly, hardworking and...

Read moreThere have been so many flies on the food and flying over the food bar I had to walk out. It turned my stomach. And it wasn’t one or two flies it was more than six. And all they were doing was swatting them. Some people didn’t care about the flies. This is my third Experience with tons of flies in there. The first experience, I just figured it was an Experience with tons of flies in there. The first experience I just figured it was an isolated issue. The second experience I just figured it was a coincidence. But three experiences with tons of flies. That’s denial and I will not be in denial. There was One person in front of me and they were fixing her food and there was a couple behind her and then I was behind them. I didn’t buy a thing and I won’t be back. My question is this, if you’re that nonchalant about flies and you’re still willing to serve People’s food, what else are you nonchalant about when it comes to health safety and food? I’ve seen Publix have the same problem at their food bar and they ended up getting some of those tower mini fans to sit on the bar to keep the flies away. Asian Kitchen needs to do the same. I was there a few weeks ago. I would’ve given them one star or no stars But in order to leave a review, it made me give...
