Chinese Restaurant News created the Top100 awards because it recognized that Chinese cuisine is a major part in the American culture. On an average day, Americans consume 2.5 million meals prepared in Chinese restaurants. Grossing more than $20 billion in annual sales with 45,000 Chinese eateries in the U.S., Chinese food has become a fixture of the American daily dining scene.

“From suburban buffets to high-end restaurants, Chinese cuisine has become as American as apple pie,” said Betty Xie, editor-in-chief of Chinese Restaurant News. “With these awards, we acknowledge those restaurateurs who excel at the overall experience: exceptional food and magnificent service in beautiful restaurants. We salute all the winners of the Top100 in all categories.”

“At Mr. K’s Restaurant, we bring over 20 years of the finest Chinese cuisine to the tri-state area. In China, cooking is an ancient art rather than a necessity. We have brought the distinctive culinary styles from four of our regions to bring our distinguished guests authentic and flavorful Chinese dishes. Peking offers tender, delicate tastes, while Shanghai uses light and savory flavor. There are the crispy unusual blends of Canton, in contrast with the spiciness found in Hunan and Szechwan. We’ve meticulously searched the essence of each region, to bring you mouth-watering entrees, fantastic cocktails, and a superb décor that will make you feel like royalty. Not all of our dishes are available year round; some are seasonal, but that ensures we only use the freshest ingredients that are of the finest quality. We care about our high standards, and we believe you will taste the hard work we put into every meal.”
