Great service! I ordered to go and it was ready in less then 5 minutes. The food was hot, fresh and exactly what I ordered. The female working was very kind and attentive. I was the only one in the restaurant which I thought was sad because this is definitely a hidden gem. There's plenty of seating for large parties. They have a little candy / toy machine as well. The location was very clean inside and outside! read more

3 stars only for location. Food is just ok. Prices are high. Will be shopping around for something else.

We order from here and only from here. Great service and quality. Wouldn't trust any other place.

Amazing food, kind people who own it. Favorite Chinese place in the St. Charles area.

Only Chinese buffet in St Charles area. Includes sushi selection and a decent hot sour soup, pot stickers are always kept fill. The buffet is attended to often keeping most entree dishes fresh. It a regular for us going there once to twice a month. read more

Food is decent. Service is great. But gd the price!!!? Ordered for 1. Mei fun (special), 2 eggrolls and rangoons. $28 after tax. There has to be a better way people. read more

Very poor quality food. Very old broccoli, and no garlic in broccoli with garlic sauce. Chicken fried rice with old, slimy rice and a couple of small slivers of chicken, nothing else. read more

Food was bland. Gen tsos was just ok at best. My gf and I both couldn't finish the fried rice. Never happened before. Like an american restaurant who can't cook good fries, almost unheard of. Give them a try hope it's better than I thought. read more

This review is for the buffet. Honestly this place has some pretty good stuff. We came here for lunch one day and dinner a couple days later. During peak lunch hours when they are constantly cooking and putting fresh stuff out their food is pretty solid. Their chicken skewers and green beans are probably my 2 favorite dishes; fresh, seasoned well, tasty. Both the shrimp dishes I tried were pretty good too My one issue with them during dinner is that they leave all the lines open, so half the food has been sitting there and looks pretty old / needs to be replaced. If I were them I would cut like half the dishes for dinner because people come in less for dinner (I'm guessing) and just keep like 8 dishes fresh and take orders by request if someone wants a specific dish. Overall not too bad; will come back and possibly order take out. read more

The food is great and the wait is non existent. It is always waiting for you. The only complaint is the price has gone up a lot.

Good food and fast service, recommend the peanut butter chicken and the crab ragoons.

Great food. Cheap prices. Service was great. Parking was not bad but could be better. Usually not busy so parking is never a problem when I go. Atmosphere is great. Employees make the place better. read more

The name is misleading........ NO Buffet here....... The crab Rangoon was very good! The Bourbon Chicken was very good! The Broccoli was cold..... Came for the buffet read more

I usually order pick up once a week. Everything is always good. I did like to eat there when they had the buffet, that way I could sample every thing. read more

Sometimes we eat there & sometimes we get takeout and the food is always delicious and the service great!

Not a buffet. I've avoided China King because I'm not a fan of buffets, but somebody on the Next Door app gave this place a shout-out so I had to give it a try. The good: HOT food FRESH food DELICIOUS food GREAT service The bad: Nothing. REALLY! I can't find anything bad to say about this place. It's fantastic! The ugly: Dated decor. This will be a new date-night place for my wife and I. It's not fancy. That's the most negative thing I can say about this China King. Everything is fantastic and I really appreciate the friendly service here. Try it! You won't be disappointed! read more

Can't properly rate it right now, but so you know THIS IS NOT A BUFFET, it's the Chinese restaurant where you order food by menu.

Great under $7 large & varied lunch buffet made this not the normal China King. When a friend said we were going to China King I really thought he was kidding me. He wanted me to review a chain Chinese place! Maybe this is just a franchise of individually owned restaurants because this one is special. As soon as we arrived we were greeted by three people at once and questioned "how many?" by all. The place looked well decorated and clean. This one location is special as far as having three full buffet bars and a hand scope ice-cream cooler. More than traditional food was on the buffet like stuffed mushrooms and a seafood roll. Plus some sushi (cooked & veggie rolls), chicken tenders, and a fruit and salad bar for choices. While I did not try the sushi rolls, having the Wasabi (added to crab rangoon) and ginger made the rest of the lunch special. I liked having just a spoonful of good quality and tasting various dishes. I also liked the waiter that kept answering our "thank you" with "thank you". This is a buffet so not all dishes were fresh from the wok, but I have to give this place an A-OK. I understand why my friend and his colleges are fans. I will return and may end up giving the buffet 4 stars just on value and selection. read more

Pro's Chicken wing app my husband loved Fast delivery via door dash Food was hot Con's We have never had to ask for egg or green onion in in our fried rice- it was an up charge and we thought that meant extra of those items- we found out upon opening our delivery that we needed to add it-we would have paid the up charge if we knew - Hot and sour soup was just ok This didn't taste like a 50+ dollar meal for 2 read more

Meh. So-so. Average. This is a place to fill up for cheap. Lots of seating but the lunch buffet selection was smallish. Selections were predictable Chinese buffet items. However, cooked foods tasted overdone and looked like they'd sat out too long. Fried shrimp and fried chicken were chewy, for example. Sliced hard boiled eggs had dry and cracking yolks. Some items didn't seem well thought out or were poorly prepared. The only greens for a fresh salad were large leaves of iceberg lettuce. Mahi rolls were sloppily made. Other items just seemed chef poor choices, like the cheesy noodle and crab concoction. Service was okay. Drinks were refilled and used plates removed in a timely manner, but the chopsticks I was using were left directly on the table. The restaurant was clean. Many of the burgundy booths in my section had silver strips of duct tape covering tears. The carpet was clean but stained. Best recommendation for this spot is the price: you can fill up at the lunch buffet with a soft drink for under $10. read more

Not fresh at all, must have gotten ours off the buffet line that was sitting for a LONG time Gah! It was terrible. My Beef and Snow Pea had 4 pieces of meat (I counted!) 4!. The Cashew Chicken was like rubber bands, chewy and flavoreless. The Crab Rangoon was not crispy and tasted off. If this was fresh and cooked seperate then these guys should be ashamed! I knew when it was delivered within 20 minutes that something was wrong! I was right!! Way to go China King for showing me how bad, bad can be! read more

Get take out here quite often and the fried rice and crab Rangoon never dissappoint. Easy ordering and pickup. They are doing takeout only now with a new menu as of May 13th. Photo attached with menu for specials. No buffet yet. Just carry out read more

China King - Quarantine 2020 reopening menu. - Chinese Near Me - St Charles, Missouri

We have ordered delivery Chinese food from here many time, and tonight we found a staple in a won ton Ugh! Could cause injury! When we called to report it, they did not offer to comp our meal, but offered a small discount on our next order. Such poor treatment of a regular customer. We will not be ordering again. read more

For delivery Chinese at its price point I can't complain. I'd even say solid. The crab rangoon is the star of the show. You can't not order it. read more

China King - Actual fortune from today's cookie. Does it get better than this?!? - Chinese Near Me - St Charles, Missouri

Wow. It's been a while since we've eaten here. Prices have gone up and quality has gone down. I ordered off an old menu I had in the drawer and prices went up about 20% since two years ago. Had everything delivered and it came on time but it just wasn't good. Ordered several different dishes and they were all pretty bland. I really want to like this place, it's close and I like Chinese! If they want to survive the quality has to go way up. read more

This better than ok I do not understand why the other reviews are so low. The best I've eaten since I've gotten to St. Charles. The food what a great value for your money The first Chinese place that has a try to get my wallet without any decent food. I've tried other Chinese food restaurants but the food tasted Luke warm to cold. However the food here was hot and fresh. The staff is very friendly and is here to help you with any questions you have.Also you can get help from the workers easily. A bonus is they also deliver. What I liked the best is the shrimp with garlic sauce. read more

Nothing in this place was good, horrible flavors and the chicken in everything was the fattiest I've ever seen. Maybe if they bought mediocre quality food people like me would come back. read more

Pretty disappointing lunch today. I am a big fan of hot and sour soup...but theirs was tasteless. In fact, most of the dishes lacked depth of flavor. I tried many of the dishes in very small portions to find what was the best. Well, nothing stood out. I would not return to this establishment. read more

China King no longer operates as a buffet, and that's a big plus. Their delicately seasoned food is super fresh and delicious-- try the egg rolls! The staff is consistently friendly and attentive. The beautiful dining room, completely remodeled, creates a pleasant ambience. And check out the lunch menu: excellent food at competitive prices. read more

I wanted pizza...she wanted Chinese. Since she's my favorite person, she won. My girl and I went to China King buffet for dinner the other night. She had never been, and I hadn't been in a while. We walked in and saw a handful of friendly faces working. We were seated by a nice woman who took our drink order. We walked the buffet before we started grabbing, and the selection was better than I remember. There was plenty to choose from, and the quality was surprisingly nice. I am a buffet fanatic, and I have lots to say about this one. 1. The crab rangoon are the best from a buffet I have ever had...ever! 2. The pot stickers are better than most, even better than PF Changs. 3. The cheesy crab bake adds celery and onions, that was delightful. 4. Their seafood cake is delicious. 5. The "traditional american" Chinese dishes are above average. 6. My drink was never less than half empty. The only complaint I have is the fried noodles tasted very bland and the stuffed mushrooms left something to be desired. Now for the best part! The total bill for two people and one soda...$18!!! That comes out to be about $8 a person for the buffet! That's amazing for what we ate. This place is definitely recommended and will be revisited. read more

We ordered the General Tso's chicken and vegtable lo mein..the chicken was bland, hardly any vegetables, and no vegetables in the lo mein. I will never order from here again, and I certainly don't recommend it to anyone. read more

Great food, however was told that delivery would be 30-45 minutes, however it was delivered in under 25 minutes & this was a major inconvenience as I was balls deep in my wife at the time. read more

Tried 'China King' about 5 years ago. It was terrible. Food was cold and generally poor quality. Decided to give it a try again last week but play it safe with something hard to screw up- chicken fried rice. Again.... Terrible. Rice was greasy, no vegetables with the exception of a few stray onions, very little chicken (that was mostly fat). HOW DO YOU SCREW UP CHICKEN FRIED RICE THIS BAD? read more

I had the sesame chicken combination with fried rice and egg roll. I also had an iced tea. The chicken seemed odd. Like it had been sitting for a long time. The breading was mushy. The fried rice was ok. The egg roll was very heavy on the cabbage. The iced tea was very watery, or made weak. This will not be a restaurant I will most likely visit again. (I didn't even take leftovers.) read more

Not the best or freshest Chinese food around. Some items are greasy, and their "crab" dish is a major disappointment. The restaurant and service are nice, but the food needs improvement. read more

Pretty typical Chinese buffet. I've had better I've had worse. Reasonable selection of food, meat quality seems a little low which seems to be common issue in Chinese buffets. read more

We live in the neighborhood and have frequented China King many times. I came around to a three star recommendation by splitting the difference between an above average regular menu and a below average buffet. First, the regular menu. There are a few dishes at CK that I really like. The Chic/Pork/etc in Garlic Sauce, Mu Shu, Kung Pao, Beef & Scallops, and Dragon & Phoenix (it goes by a different name at CK, but it's on the house specialties menu) are all above average. Never had anything I was really displeased with... The Hot & Sour soup is also above average. But the buffet... Definitely below average. No Mongolian BBQ station (major bummer for me because I like my veggies and they're, well, pretty sparse and limp on the buffet tables). Another thing that really turns me off is that they use won ton wrappers for the pot stickers, a really disturbing trend in too many Chinese places. They must think we Americans don't know the difference. If you're a buffet, you really have to have traffic to keep the food semi-fresh and CK just doesn't have enough butts-in-seats to make that happen. Bottom line, order off the menu. read more

I'm not sure what how other people had issues, but we ordered beef pepper steak and coconut shrimp and it was some of the BEST Chinese food we've ever had. The Coconut shrimp is so AMAZING!!! Great Chinese place. read more

I grab take out from here up to three times a month when I'm craving Chinese food and I need to head (back) to work. The lunch specials are a great value for the price; I like to have the soup and half of my entree for one meal and save the rest for when I get home. The quality is about what you would expect from a fast Chinese place. Most items are breaded, deep-fried, then had some kind of sauce slathered all over them - those items I avoid. Their Moo Goo Gai Pan (Mushrooms with Chicken) is easily my favorite order. Nothing was truly atrocious, and nothing has made me sick (yet). All in all, not a place I would go out of my way to visit. read more

Had it delivered. They delivered the wrong thing then offered to send me a new order in 30-45 minutes. I asked for a refund and they said they couldn't do it on a credit card. Will never go again. read more
