Kickin KAsian — Restaurant in Los Angeles

My friend and I came here with our wives to grab dinner. We never been here before but my friend wife loves seafood so we were willing to try it. I read the restrauant review first and saw they get really busy but has a waitlist to help out. So when we were nearby I asked my wife to put us on the waitlist and it said the wait would be about 25 minutes. We found parking easily in the plaza the restrauant is in because we came at 5:40pm on a Tuesday night. We got seated at 6pm and the place inside is not that big but it was almost packed. They had a VIP menu for Tuesday only so it worked out for us. I went with their 4pc chicken wings, I asked for 2 order first and ask for the kasian spice and lemon pepper at medium spicy. I also asked for the Cajun fries as well which everything was delicious. I prefer the lemon pepper spice so I got 3 more orders of the chicken wings. My wife got the topless shrimp with the kasian spice and medium spicy. She loved her shrimp bag with the added corn and mushroom. My friend got their chicken tender and his wife got the crab. The service we received was amazing by Coby, he was very attentive with our table and kept checking in with us. They charge a small fee if you need gloves...

I love, love, love this place. I love the food, the staff and the service. I've been going here for a couple of years now. Kevin and Nancy are still there and are really cool peeps. I always order snow crab legs kickin mix and shrimp with kickin mix. Sometimes I order the garlic butter mild. Even though it would be easier to order the naked shrimp, there is something very therapeutic about peeling your own shrimp. For those of you that love super spicy? Please order a side of the shut up sauce. It's going to cost you a dollar, but it's worth it. Buyer beware of how spicy it is. I personally love it. I have ordered the mussels on several occasions and hated it. It's too fishy, griddy and jiggly in your mouth. I wouldn't recommend it. My favorite Arnold Palmer in the world is at this place. They sweeten the lemonade with honey instead of sugar. (It's such a great mix) make sure to order gloves because the smell will stay with your hands for a couple of days. One great thing about this place is there is a sink right in the dining area. When you're done, you're done. You'll know what I mean. You don't want to wait 20 minutes for the bathroom. It's really convenient to have sink in the...

This food is a 5 stars but why 4 then? They “opted to do not accept legal tender aka CASH”. No cash, no problem pay with card…. Why is the problem? You pay their transaction fee 3.5% of your bill. This is the highest percentage that only Amex charge. I am business owner and first it’s illegal to pass it to consumer like this. Prices should reflect all fees the business incur. I did not like the paper straw they use, Ik it’s California law but they don’t mind breaking since they charge you the fee with no potion to voiding buy paying cash, same with a weird wood single use forks they provide and charge you extra if you ask for gloves.

Average I will definitely come back, place is very small but food is good. At least at my experience waitress were nice, many helped and Thai tea probably is the BEST I ever tried. I took 2 refills and took one more to go… so yummy.

Expect to pay about $50 per person about but I think it’s expected for the food they are serving. Not complaint about prices.

Overall love the food, hate the forced processing fee with no...
