Princess Garden Restaurant - Authentic Chinese Cuisine in Kansas City, MO

I started with the crab rangoon and peking duck carved tableside. the creaminess of the crab filling was excellent and the duck was tender with that classic crispy skin. the tableside carving added a special touch to the whole experience. the friendly staff and warm atmosphere made it feel like a real tradition. portions were generous, perfect even for sharing. i’ll definitely be back with family for those dishes again.

Had lunch with a coworker and we shared some sesame chicken and egg rolls. The sesame chicken was sweet and simple and the egg rolls were big and crisp. The person serving us was polite and moved things along without any rush. The place felt casually comfortable and not too busy. Everything came out hot and ready to go. I would go back when I want a casual lunch without a fuss.

I ordered the spicy triple delight with fried rice and egg roll. The meal started with spicy soup, which was among the best I have had. Next was the egg roll; came out perfectly crisp and hot, once again among the best I have had. The entree was generous in size, and perfectly spiced, once again among the best I have had. Will definitely be back, highly recommend this place!

Really enjoyed this hidden gem of a place. I’ve lived in the KC metro area my entire life and have never been here until recently. The staff is friendly and the place just has that very authentic feel to it. Lunch portions are HUGE and not a bad deal at all for $12. I got the spicy triple delight with egg drop soup and an egg roll. Flavor was great on everything. And the food came out hot and fresh.

I am back in town for the holidays and SO glad to find Princess Garden was still open. It never fails to impress, and is well worth the drive from anywhere you may in Knsas City. The food is delicious and served in an "old timey" American Chinese restaurant vibe. My family ordered what we thought was way too much food and finished nearly all of it -- at a wonderful price, too. The Mapo Tofu was perfectly presented and generously portioned. Kung Pao Chicken is a lifetime favorite of mine; brings back childhood memories. I suggest both of these AND anything else that sounds intruiging. It's all good.

Nice, festive-looking Chinese restaurant with great food and service. The sesame beef(pictured) may make you tear up.

What a gem I tried 4 (!) different preparations of duck last night at Princess Gardens on 89th & Wornall (near absolutely nothing else), and we had a excellent dinner. The Peking Duck is their crowning glory and it was delicious. Sam carves up duck like he does it 50x/week because he does! Sue led us to this dish, insisting we would miss out on the true possibilities of duck without it and she was right. Housemade Mandarin pancakes and plum sauce paired with cracklin duck skin put it over the edge. The crispy orange duck might have been tied for my favorite though! Fried duck bites (like really savory fried chicken - think confit then fried), tossed with veggies and an awesome spiced orange sauce. I'd go back just for this. We also tried spiced duck and roast duck. All kinds of veggies tossed in, but we wanted to try the spiced green beans too. Oh and because we were very hungry when we sat down, we got 2 orders of crab rangoon (for 7 of us) and DEMOLISHED them. So creamy and satisfying. The food was great. The decor is charming (if showing a little wear). But the staff made the experience. We had attentive and hilarious service and I hope to go back again to try other dishes from their 11-page menu!

Peking duck is absolutely yummy. Only thing I'll ever eat here again.
