Master Critic Review

Keung Kee BBQ 7.7
Chinatown
Counter-service Cantonese BBQ specialist tucked into Chinatown with a no-frills, quick-turn vibe. Known for roasted pork and duck over rice plates that hit hard on smoky-sweet glaze. A reliable grab-and-go stop rather than a sit-down occasion.
Must-Try Dishes: Roast Duck Rice Plate, Crispy Roast Pork, BBQ Pork (Char Siu)
Scores:

What makes it special: Classic Chinatown roast-meat plates at true neighborhood prices.
