Kow Kow was a favorite of my mom's from years ago, so when I moved to Chicago, I had to trek out there and try it. Let me preface the rating by saying that I rarely send food back at a restaurant....

The decor and atmosphere of this joint says old school 1950s chinese restaurant. It's a bit dingy but the food is quite good. I would say that the egg rolls are excellent. They are ample sized,...

We love this place. Nothing fancy just good old Chinese food. It reminds me of the Cantonese places I went to growing up in Brooklyn. The egg rolls are the best in town.
