The reviews don't lie! I am skeptical on take out places, but this one is like no other! The meals were all fresh and loaded with protein and not too greasy. The Hunan shrimp had a ton of huge shrimp and the perfect spice. The beef and broccoli was loaded with tender beef and perfectly cooked broccoli. The steamed dumplings did not disappoint. I will be back soon! read more

Obviously not real authentic Chinese food but it's something for our small town. I'm not complaining it's definitely decent but I'd rather have authentic Chinese food if i'm gonna be ordering/eating Chinese food. The service is okay, usually only two to three people working but they are usually nice. Sometimes they can be mean and want you to just leave quick and just get on to the next person. I don't know if they do togo because i've never really tried that. Also lighting isn't really aesthetically pleasing. read more

Excellent Chinese food! Best I have had here anywhere from Amherst, Williamsville, Clarence , East Amherst areas! I lived in the Washington DC Area for 28 years and there are so many excellent Chinese restaurants everywhere. Once I moved back to Buffalo in 2015 , all Chinese Restaurants that I frequented have disappointed until, I discovered Akron China King. It is primarily a take out place, but there are several tables one can also eat in. read more

Good Chinese Food. Now we know what ACK stands for. Aww. Not really. Trading in his chevy for a cadilac-ack-ack-ack-ack? My favourite dish is the Shrimp Curry and Akron China King makes it very very well. Probably the best thing about this place is that you can get almost anything on the menu as a small order, which is huge, for $5. Not bad at all! To be honest with you I am not that crazy about Chinese food so I haven't tried many.. I usually don't like them - I don't like a lot of the dishes here either but they're definitely not bad. The best one in the area for me hands down is Golden Wok in Amherst (although they have attitude problems), and this one is a distant second. However these guys are infinitely friendlier, and the girl who serves is just adorable and so sweet, endearing, and excellent at customer service. Beware, they sometimes close earlier than scheduled, especially on a quiet night or when the weather is bad. read more

While visiting in the area, we decided we wanted Chinese food. We found this little place in downtown Akron and were REALLY PLEASED with how good the food is here. Prices are great, portions are large, service was fast. It's mostly a take-out place, we were the only ones eating at one of the two tables and while we were there a steady stream of people came in to pick up phoned in orders. A definite YES to trying this place! We're full-time RVers, to see more about our travels visit us at www.retired-openroad.us. read more

I'm a finicky eater... especially with Chinese food, but this place is awesome!! My all time favorite: Chicken w/ Garlic Sauce!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No where else do they make this dish as tasty as they do!! Another great one: Moo Shoo Chicken w/ Pancakes (pancakes are the non-flavored rice "tortillas") This is awesome!! But you can't get the small lunch version. But it's HUGE!! You could share this with 3 people!! ...and at the price you pay... it's fantastic!! Didn't care too much for their General Tsaos or Orange Chicken but I did see others from work order it a lot. (For GREAT General Tsaos go to the Golden Wok in Amherst!!!) Also.... the wait is minimal!!! You can get your food in 5 minutes or call ahead and it's always super hot & ready to go. :) I'll miss them dearly now that I've moved so far! :( read more

There are a lot of Canadian/American-Chinese dishes on the menu but it goes beyond that and has things that I'm guessing are more authentic to China and a few fusion dishes also. I was particular impressed by the soft pepper noodle with beef or chicken. I had it with beef and it has a fantastic black pepper flavor and luscious thick noodles with just enough vegetables to give some texture. I'm including a photograph from mid-meal. It might not be beautiful but it's a stand out dish in flavor. One item to skip... The fried wontons. While ours were very crispy (and hot), the predominant flavor was fryer oil and the tiny (truly tiny) bits of ground pork in the wontons didn't help. Also, check out the combination plates if you want some of this and some of that instead a lot of one thing. They are near the back of the menu and are NEAR the lunch only plates but the combination plates are in fact available at night.

And a lunch menu. Wow! I just gave my receipt another look and the people are nicer than I thought. I thought they were pleasant, friendly, happy we were there, concerned that we would enjoy our visit. The lunch menu offerings were each $10.95 and included eggroll OR soup, and white or vegetable fried rice. Daughter ordered the Eggplant in Garlic Sauce with eggroll and white rice, plus an appetizer order of steamed dumplings. I ordered Eggplant with Pork in Garlic sauce with eggroll and white rice, plus a small bowl of Hot and Sour Soup. The soup on the appetizer menu was $3.95. My receipt shows the server put the soup as my lunch choice and charged $2.95 for the eggroll. She never said a word, didn't point out that I could save a dollar by switching the sides around. So the people are all I thought plus kind and conscientious. Marvelous. I was delighted with everything I ate. The entree was enough for two, so supper came home with me. The eggroll was fresh and crisp and non-greasy, seemed homemade. Excellent. The eggplant was perfectly prepared and cooked, as was the pork. Delicious. The hot and sour soup was easily one of the best I've had, and I'm always looking for a great hot and sour soup. Coming from downtown Buffalo, we'd been in Williamsville because I had an appointment on Essjay Rd. Afterward, we looked for a place to have lunch before shopping. Finding Golden Hill at 4001 Sheridan Dr. in Amherst was pure serendipity. You can bet, though, that I will visit again after next appointment.
