We ordered our food online on Christmas evening. While I understand this is a busy night we waited for more than an hour and a half. They told us they were 'boxing the food' and that was 45 minutes ago. Now they say it's another 15 minutes. I don't appreciate them leading us on. Please be upfront and honest. read more

Solid delivery and very good food. Flavorful chicken and broccoli, rich which was nice. Great pork dumpling. read more

Chef King - Chicken and broccoli - Seafood Near Me - Pittsford, New York

Flavor not good, tastes old. Wontons hard. Sesame chicken loaded with sauce almost no rice

Don't order here unless you enjoy an experience of getting the wrong order. We've given them business over many years, but I've about had it. They have little kids take the order and literally about 50% of the time the order is wrong. We've complained before and they blame the computer (not the little kid taking the order). Funny, their menus have numbers on every item, but they will not take those over the phone, so they get things messed up a lot. read more

This used to be our first choice for take out Chinese cuisine. The quality had begun to decline and we went elsewhere. Decided to try Chef King again after over a year's time. Unfortunately the establishment hasn't reached it former level. Very disappointing. read more

Food here is so bad. It is what i expected for pittsford chinese food but seriously didnt expect all the random substitutions for the food i ordered. The broth i got with a dish was almost all water with no flavor. I feel like fried rice is pretty hard to butcher in a chinese restaurant but this is the worst ive had in my life. its literally unflavored yellow rice with a few peas mixed in, small bits of onion and carrot. literally so dissatisfied i wish i could get a refund read more

Chef King - fried rice - Seafood Near Me - Pittsford, New York

This used to be my go-to place. Not anymore. They now use processed pork and the "chicken" is so overly processed, it doesn't even look like chicken when you look closely. I'm never going back. read more

Quick easy spot for takeout Chinese in Pittsford basin. Super Covid friendly. Always fresh and hot but it feels like the same sauce is used for every dish. Would like a little more variety and a little more heat read more

Delicious, Fast and consistent high quality food. I have been a customer for over 10 years.

Clearly watered down their gravy, fried rice was just yellow rice with some pees. Clearly taking customers for fools who will accept anything read more

Chef King - Gravy, was completely watery and tasteless - Seafood Near Me - Pittsford, New York

The Szechuan Shrimp dish surprised with ample heat and plentiful, large, well cooked shrimp complemented with vegetables and white rice. The best compliment to give the shrimp fried rice - nicely executed moderate use of cooking oil. Small, tasteless shrimp rode alongside sparse pieces of carrot, a few peas and a bit of onion. The rice, at a deep yellow, had no hint of saffron (except color), curry, or chicken stock flavor. Pronounced tasteless by all 3 adults. Previous ratings had us excited. This dish is a clear failure at our table. read more

This is a "I've got a cold n need hot n sour soup asap" review. The service was super quick. The soup had the expected ingredients, nothing fancy. It wasn't too hot or too sour. Average middle of the hot n sour road experience. read more

Chef King - Hot n sour soup - Seafood Near Me - Pittsford, New York

Chef King is my FAVORITE place in the Pittsford area for Chinese takeout. My two favorites items: 1) veggie Lo mein - the noodles are thick, almost like udon. Broccoli, carrots, mini corn, and water chestnuts are included. 2) broccoli (or anything) in GARLIC SAUCE- BEST garlic sauce I have had in all of rochester. 10/10. read more

Chef King - Shrimp egg roll, Vegetable Lo Mein, Broccoli w. Garlic Sauce, Sesame Bean Curd - Seafood Near Me - Pittsford, New York

This is my favorite Chinese food place in all of Rochester. Five stars all the way. Also the best wonton soup I've had on the east coast.

They served Sara Cold wonton soup that didn't taste right they said they would replace the soup, but when we went there they refused to honor there word, and wanted her to pay for the soup. read more

Living in Pittsford, Chef King has been in our eating out rotation for the last 10 years. And for the last 10 years it's been "meh." Good enough for standard Chinese takeout if your feeling lazy and have a Chinese food craving. Honestly nothing I would write a review on for positive or negative reasons. But, there's a but. Here it is: BUT, the last six months it's gotten noticeably better. Definitely a step up in quality and flavor. Plus they have some real legit COVID protocols in place. Anyway, it's bumped up a grade and I feel like the deserve my support. read more

The service here is very quick. I called my order in and it was ready in under 10 minutes. It came out relatively hot but not scorching. My sesame chicken is just a tiny bit sweeter than I'm used to and is very saucy - but tasty. The rice and egg roll are ok. It's a little less than what I expected and they were out of duck sauce when I went. The restaurant doesn't have tables, it's strictly take-out. Overall, worth the $6.50 if I don't have to travel far or pay a delivery fee. read more

Chef King - Sesame Chicken Lunch Special - Seafood Near Me - Pittsford, New York

Chef King recently installed a massive plexiglass wall to separate their kitchen from the customer order/pick-up counter during the COVID-19 pandemic. They offer takeout and delivery of affordable Chinese food. With large portion sizes, this is a great value in the area. read more

Great food and fast service. The seafood was fresh and the chicken options had a surprise spice to it. Perfect for a quick pickup.

Chef King gives you what you want, good Chinese, at a great price. It's the cheaper lunch combo type Chinese food. Similar to what you might get at the food court at a mall. Their portion sizes are fair to large and they have been around a long time in this area. That's proof enough right there that they haven't gone out of business in a very selective community that their food is good! For whatever reason, people in Rochester are obsessed with new chains when they come to the area and while they might not last long, they take away from more established restaurants in the area. Chef King is able to continue to survive when these newer places come to the area because they have a loyal following of customers. Would recommend if you're in the area and hungry for Chinese! Unrelated to the food, they at least had a really cool plexiglass setup to make customers feel safe during the pandemic. Not sure if it's still in place or not. One last thing you may want to know, there's no seating here. It's strictly a carry out place. read more

Since the new owners took over a year ago, business has been in full swing. While nothing has actually changed to the appearance of the place, the food has made a major upgrade in freshness and quality. Chef King isn't a top tier Chinese restaurant so don't expect any fancy dishes or top-of-the-line cut beef. Chef King is a working-man's type of restaurant in the idea that anyone with $5 in their pocket can get a good meal. This rings true when it comes to their lunch special which ranges from $5-$6. My advice is to go with the classics at Chef King because it's the safest best. Sweet & Sour Chicken, Sesame Chicken, Lo Mein, Fried Rice, are probably the best route to go when ordering food here but to each their own. Even though Chef King isn't a place that's going to blow your mind it's definitely a better deal than Wegmans which isn't something that comes easily. Whether you're ordering pickup or delivery, the new owners have brought a new atmosphere and sense of pride that was lacking for the past 10 years. Overall, if you're looking for a very affordable chinese restaurant in a pinch and aren't willing to drive to the city or Henrietta, Chef King should fit your bill. read more

Love Chef King! If you are looking for affordable, delicious and reliable Chinese food this is the place for you.

Probably the best Chinese take out place in Rochester. You need to try their chicken wings. Crunchy on the outside and juicy inside. Hands down the best I've had from a Chinese place. Fried spring rolls are excellent as well with lots of fresh veggies inside. Service was fast and accommodating. I live 20min away in penfield and still come here for their food. read more

Recently moved back to the area. Chef King is the best local option for Chinese. Very affordable and very good.

This place used to be great when the owner, Lee, was in charge. She moved on to bigger things, (Chinese grocery store,) and sold to an owner who did not get a good review from me in 2014! Well, guess what? Chef King sold again, and the new owner is wonderful! Fresh food, delicious!! Try again folks, you'll be pleased! read more

Horrible Service - Substandard Food - Who wants to open a Chinese Restaurant in Pittsford This is the unfriendliest chinese restaurants I have experienced in the entire US. The owners are rude to their employees and never say a THANK You to their customers. The food is also substandard. The only reason why they are still in business must be that there are no other take-out restaurants in the area. So to all the asian people out there, start a good chinese take-out restaurant in the Pittsford area!! read more

I moved from the city into Pittsford recently and this is the only Chinese place I know of that will deliver to my house. My wife and I tried them out and probably won't be ordering again. Don't get me wrong, I thought it was fine (though the sesame chicken tasted different than I'm used to) but while I am not terribly picky, my wife is. She couldn't stand the food and hardly ate any of it. At this point, instead of delivery, I'm driving to China House in Fairport and doing pickup on our take-out nights. My wife loves their food and I like that they have excellent Pho as well. They will have to get my vote even though I'm not within their delivery radius. If you absolutely need delivery and food from Chinese restaurants all taste the same to you, Chef King will probably be fine. Otherwise if you're within delivery range of China House or China Garden, I would recommend them first. read more

Given the closure of numerous Chinese restaurants due to COVID (including for a period of time - Chef King) I've had to try a couple different Chinese takeouts. I was severely disappointed. While I've always been satisfied with their food I've recently learned how great this place is. You don't know what you've got until it's gone read more

I needed some quick lunch when u saw this place in the plaza I was passjng. I ordered the General Tso Chicken special. It was mediocre, I didn't feel like I was going to get food poisioning, but I also didn't feel compelled to finish my meal either. For $6 I got chicken, rice and a soda; you can't get a deal like the most places. My food was done in 8 minutes and the portions were good. Of you are in a pinch, this will do. If not, find a better option. read more

This place used to be pretty good. Apparently ownership has changed and has gone downhill. Moo shu is supposed to include Chinese "pancakes" to make a Chinese burrito of sorts. We received a stack of 4" x 4" uncooked wonton wrappers to do this which were too small and thin to do anything with. Fortunately they weren't too large to fit i. The trash can. They included about a tablespoon of sauce. Dumplings were good but were not packed with any sauce. Kung Pao celery was an interesting interpretation of Kung Pao chicken. I just wish it included a few pieces of chicken. Heed my advice and make the trip to Chen Garden in Brighton. It's worth the trip. read more

Chef King - Won ton wrappers a.k.a. Moo shu pancakes - Seafood Near Me - Pittsford, New York

This is a very good chinese takeout. The house special mei fun was very good, hot, and fresh. The bbq spare ribs are good but dont expect them to be saucy, they are crispier. The veggie egg rolls are light and crispy, not greasy like some other places in the area. The fried rice tasted really fresh. Dont expect 5 star dining this is a good takeout place and the prices are more than fair. I really appreciated the extra steps they took to protect customers during this time. Ps If you use the online ordering system it doesnt say when your food is ready so just get there abt 10-15min later and it will be ready to go read more

This was the worst meal we've ever had. It was literally inedible for the five of us. We ordered a large sampling of food and exactly none of it was good. The "chicken" was unrecognizable- no meat, just strange white mass mixed in with a shred of dark meat. The beef with broccoli was tough and the broccoli so saturated with a thick, fake sugary sauce that it congealed to the container. The chicken chow main was a mass of slushy white that, when turned over upside down, didn't move from the carton. The wonton soup was lukewarm, tasteless dishwater liquid with unrecognizable "meat" filled dumplings. It all went into the trash and we're now eating peanut butter toast for dinner. I'm so angry we wasted $45 on this place. Should have read the Yelp reviews first. Hopefully you're smarter than we were. read more

Firsst time to go here and I didn't like the food at all. It's not my first time eating Chinese food and I was expecting more. First the food didn't even have flavor and the vegetables in the rice were hard. I will not be stepping here again. The service was okay even though there was not alot of it. So I rather stay with my Chinese near my house. read more

This place is pretty average for Chinese food. But keep in mind, this is just a takeout delivery place, average is almost all I expect. It's always fast, reliable, and consistent. Prices are good and it's only 5 minutes away from my house. Sure, there are better places in the greater Rochester area, but this place surely will fulfill that Chinese food craving you've got. My husband and I usually get the combos. They are a great value. Egg rolls are awesome. read more

Truly disappointed. Used to love this place and the quality has gone down significantly. Everything tasted the same with the brown sauce and we asked for our dumplings pan fried and they were clearly not. Our pork tasted like shrimp which makes me wonder if they clean their woks after every meal. We paid cash so I can't even bitch and get a credit. Will be trying one last time if for anything I can use my card and call and bitch and get a free meal. read more

So disappointed.. this place used to be great but tonight everything tasted the same. Since when do wontons come covered in sauce? Furthermore the dumplings were poorly made and flavorless, our pork tasted like shrimp and overall just sad to watch the decline of one of my favorite takeout places read more

My mom got food from here last night and ate a little and said it didn't taste right. She then got extremely ill. I will spare you the details... basically all the symptoms of food poisoning. This morning she is perfectly fine. I didn't eat any of the food because I never have liked it, just mediocre at best like many of the other reviewers said. It sucks, because it is in a great location and there really isn't any other Chinese restaurant in the area. read more

lucky to live around the corner. This place has great food from the Orient. the sweet and sour chicken is perhaps my favorite dish. Just order it and you can see why. The price is fair and the portions are huge. Delivery is quick and you can order online easily. When in doubt, Chef King it up! read more

We just ordered from here yesterday online. I love the option to order online so you can ensure everything is ordered the way you like. We ordered lunch menu sesame chicken and sweet and sour chicken it was $5.95 each meal and it came with a side we picked pork egg rolls. Everything was fresh and flavorful. After ordering online it arrived 15 min later. We will definitely be ordering from here again. read more

Mediocre chinese food that is pretty much all I can say about this establishment. For myself the best thing about it is the location which is only a few minutes from my house. But in the grand scheme of things this matters very little. My goto dish is the beef lo mein simply because it is rather difficult to horribly screw up. read more
