Generations of Lubbock families were raised on Chinese Kitchen.
It was the kind of place that worked perfectly for everyone at the table. Chinese Kitchen served a style of Americanized Chinese food that felt approachable, which made it a great introduction for kids who might not have been ready for more traditional Asian dishes. At the same time, it was satisfying enough that parents were happy to make it part of the regular lineup. On top of that, the original location sat conveniently close to the South Plains Mall, making it an easy stop for families spending a day shopping in Lubbock.
