My first time visiting. I ordered the general tso chicken combo. The food was terrible. My rice was hard, the chicken tasted like it was days old. They did not even put eating utensils in my bag. My friend ordered the Philadelphia.beef combo. It was not good. WeI will never go there again. read more

I love a restaurant that grants your reasonable wishes! They always accommodate me when i want to add something else to a dish or take away. The food is always fresh and taste consistent. For a while I was in search of a Chinese takeout that provided the best chicken and broccoli. If you order this dish at most Chinese takeout restaurants they give you "chicken" and because of the taste it leaves you wondering whether you truly had the real thing. At China King, their chicken taste like chicken!! With the chicken and broccoli you get your choice of either brown sauce or white sauce. Did I mention I love a place that gives you (the consumer) options?! I've had it both ways and I enjoy both sauces but in recent times find myself deferring more to towards the white sauce and I add a bit of soy sauce. It's so delicious! Their egg drop soup is delicious and packed with egg. Did i mention that their eggs taste like real eggs here?! I enjoy their egg foo young and get mine mixed with shrimp and chicken. A photo wouldn't do much justice, taste far better! Also, China King has the BEST wonton soup out of any Chinese takeout restaurant I've been to. Most places give you more noodle than meat filling. But their wontons are packed with meat! You can actually get full off their wonton soup. I love that they allow me to add broccoli to mine. I love having a little green veggie mixed in with my wonton. I like to call my order in and it's always ready by the time i get there so there's hardly ever a wait time. Get in and get out with good quality Chinese food! I love it! read more

Quick service, great food and they're not stingy with the sauce packets. Definitely recommend.

Read Hells B. review. She is my friend and told me about this spot. She was raving about the best Chinese food. Their chicken and broccoli was definitely great (white sauce) and they gave a generous portion of both chicken and broccoli. Roast pork lo mein had tasty pork inside it (try SangKee's roast pork over by H Mart if you love roast pork). Sweet and sour chicken - they gave me so much for $5! Wonton soup - wontons were pretty filled; more so than other spots. Egg roll was a bit greasy though. The Chinese places around me have upped their prices and lowered their portion sizes, so definitely nice to find this spot! read more

As always, highly pleased with the service and quality of my meal--10 out of 10 for me every time! I forgot to post a picture of what I got the last time so I had to show y'all this time what my go to order is--The sesame shrimp is always on point but I usually ask for fried rice instead of the white rice and we also tried the shrimp egg fu young for the first time here and that was slamming!! Highly recommend both. No inside seating and they only accept cash but there is an ATM inside incase you forget to bring some. Definitely order ahead of you can so you can just pick up when you get there. Very clean in here btw!! read more

Great place and always welcoming.... Kitchen is open and you can see the chefs handling the food which is delicious and affordable. Their noodles are very good too.... Always my place to go for Chinese food ! read more

There was a time when this was my favorite spot. Now it is hit or miss. I remember the old days the food was so tasty, and the portions were ve tryy generous. To me the quality is not the same. I have taken to YouTube learning to make my own Chinese food, and you know what? I'm not doing too bad. read more

This is a neighborhood Chinese restaraunt. Nothing special.. the wings are better than most in the area and are a nice size. Since covid a lot of places have switched to the tiny wings but these remain the same. Fast service. Clean building. read more

Still the worst after all these years. Been awhile, so I decided to give them another try. Craving shrimp fried rice figured how bad could it be? Terrible! Orange? rice not fully cooked with maybe a tablespoon of onion and a teaspoon of scallion. The dozen or so tiny shrimp at least were edible. Never again, and this time I mean it! read more

Always quick service and reasonable prices. You order is ready within 10-15 minutes after ordering on the phone. The house special lo mein and general tso's chicken are my go to. The place is cash only but there is an ATM in the front. read more

This was once my favorite Chinese spot in all of Philly. The chicken & broccoli with the white sauce is what sold me. Stopped by the other day. It's been about 6 or 7 years since the last visit. Cash only . They got it like a max security prison in there with the covid barriers, & little slots to pay through. Both the ladies that I delt with were RUDE. Never asked what I wanted on my wings & fries then got all upset when I asked for ketchup packs like I was asking for a kidney. Had to get my favorite chicken & broccoli. Nope. Doesn't taste like it used to. Had to add salt for taste. Oh well. We had a good run. read more

It used to be good before the plannedemic 2020. Food is extra greasy now. Meat doesn't taste fresh like it used to be. Rice even tastes fake. read more

The foood was Nasty af. It looked raw. I could barely look at it. I wanted to throw up. It tasted like soggy milk.The girl there so rude.

China King has been in this neighborhood since I was a child, so I grew up on it. The food is delicious and the taste is consistent, which is why this the only Chinese/American Take Out I will ever go to. They don't sell items like cheese fries, pizza fries, and single wings, and their prices are not the cheapest, but they're reasonable and the food is always ready for pick-up fairly quickly. I give it five stars because the food always tastes fresh; the vegetables (I usually have chicken with broccoli) are always fresh, and firmer than other stores i've tasted. They're one of the only food spots in that part of Cheltenham/Melrose Park that is open later (11PM on many days), so when it's late an you're hungry, this is definitely the place to go. read more

Food is delicious but they overcharge and when you bring it to their attention, the cashier became very rude and dismissive, shoved the food through the window. NEVER again. That's why they're a cash business and never offer receipts. This also happened at China King in Philly at Front and Godfrey, their other restaurant. They been scamming customers for years. Do the math folks it don't add up. read more

It's nice. Clean. The workers UNDERSTAND ENGLISH. I like it. Why can't Chinese stores in philly be like this? I'm mad I ordered an "orange chicken" and it was just some Funky Ass General Tso chicken with orange peelings!! And it cost more. Why?? Stick with the wings, and Chicken Mai Fun. read more

Best takeout around this area. Their hot mustard is the best , ask for it when ordering. Their duck is cooked perfectly.

If I could give 0 starts I would but in order to post the review I had to. So I ordered 10 wings and small shrimp fried rice, wings didn't have salt and pepper like I requested, so they were nasty as well as hard like rocks. The rice was hard as well like it was cooked days ago. That was $18 wasted. Horrible Horrible Horrible read more

This Chinese restaurant I can say have great food but their service is horrible! The two female cashiers threw the food across the counter trying to be so fast and bag it up. After I pointed it out to her she was very rude and rushed us out the store. This is the second time this has happened. They have great food but because of their service I will not be returning. Poor service! read more

My favorite Chinese food place. Didn't know they were the same owners or family from Chinatown Chinese restaurant that is currently closed. I was so sadden by that but a friend told me to go to their other spot and I'm so happy. Their food dishes are flavorful not bland or greasy like most places. Reminds me of the Bronx Chinese food. Staff are friendly aswell. Please try! read more

The best Chinese restaurant for miles around. Always on point, fresh, fast and everything comes out piping hot! My family and I have been eating here for over 20 years. Everyone in the neighborhood chooses this take out spot. Even ppl that have moved out of the area will come back just to grab some grub. Thankfully it's on the Philly/Cheltenham border, as a Philly resident no other Chinese take out spots can compete. I'm spoiled rotten I love this place so much. -BEST HOT AND SOUR SOUP I've ever had!!! Seriously, life changing. Tge only minor complaint is too much tofu, it's an unnecessary filler. -Amazing fried CHICKEN WINGS! Whatever is in the seasoning for these wings is perfection. -PORK FRIED RICE is exceptional. It's never mushy, like every other spot. I could make a whole meal out if it. -CHICKEN LO MEIN is so delicious. The sauce to noodle ratio is perfect. These noodles could never be duplicated. -CHICKEN AND BROCCOLI is so tasty. Try it with the garlic sauce. Huge, fresh pieces of broccoli with large tender medallions of chicken. Great portion size for the $. -KUNG PO CHICKEN has great depth of flavor without being overly spicy. -Last but not least, the EGG ROLLS & SPRING ROLLS. Great size. Tons of flavor, not just a tasteless fried lump like so many other places. They even won an award for them, the plaque is on the wall. read more

The food is always consistent here. The food is fresh and delicious. I have not tried all the items but I'm sure they are all great!

Been coming to this place for years but never thought to review it until this past weekend when the family was over for the holidays and the oven decides to crap out. Good thing I remember seeing the catering specials the last time I was there and got a bunch of wings to chill out the family while the tech from Sears was trying to figure out the oven. Surprised it only took 30 minutes for the amount of wings and food I ordered. read more

I've been to a million chinese restaurants in my life time. And this place is my absolute favorite of all time. CHICKEN WINGS AND FRIED RICE FTW! Must Try read more

cash only! must use their atm- not worth the frustration. there's a cvs next door if you want to get cash back instead

I was very excited to give this place a try based on other great reviews....unfortunately, my take on this restaurant isn't as great. I called in a pick-up order of veggie lo mein and an order of spring rolls. The customer service is very good and even when I picked up my food, the great service continued. There are reviews that state how clean this place is and I beg to differ. While standing at the counter to pay, I could see over into the kitchen area and there were dirty rags laying on the floor and the floor was filthy. Furthermore, there was wayyyyy too much open uncooked food (they keep the front door open) and no gloves could be seen in site. Now for the food... My veggie lo mein was so over cooked, the lo mein was mushy and there was no sauce on the lo mein, so weirdly it was super dry and tasteless. The spring rolls were more like regular egg rolls so that was a no-go as well. All in all, I do not ever see myself returning. read more

I order from China King at least 3 times per week and have probably ordered everything on the menu. ÑEVER HAD A BAD EXPERIENCE. Every order is fresh and prepared as requested. It's a cash only establishment but judging from the daily crowds this has never been a problem. Guess what...headed there now and this is my 2nd stop this week...it's only Tuesday!!!! read more

China King has been around forever!! and there is a reason for that. their food is decent for a fast food joint. its prepared very quickly. only downside is sometimes you can receive an attitude but thats fine as long as the food is good!! read more

Seriously the best damn Chinese food from a takeout place I ever had. Especially the broccoli dishes and the garlic sauce is damn good. Got the freshest and biggest shrimps I ever seen in a chinese takeout but the best thing about this place is? The springs rolls, so damn good I can eat like 10 of em. read more

Typical Chinese Fast Food Resturant. However, Customer Service was great. Had a conversation while waiting for my food with young Asian girl (Beautiful BTW) ... Was sick prior week due to food poisoning so decided to ask her what she would recommend and sure thing; she gave me great advice than to take my money by suggesting the most expensive thing. The food was fresh. The ICE TEA drink was delicious and it was only $1.00. They had other fresh drinks like lemonade and another Red one. It was great being able to communicate with someone who knew English. Its rare to find an establishment where you can speak to them directly. Will come again..

Move in this area 13 years ago and had the chicken wings and house fried rice as my first meal in my new house. It was great! Sadly they have fallen off on the things that made me frequent the place. read more

I ordered the shrimp and broccoli with garlic sauce and it was amazing! The food was very fresh & flavorful, I will definitely be going back to try other meals. read more

This is the best Chinese restaurant in the area. Easy ordering, fast and friendly service, and the food is the best around. It's pretty impressive to see the chefs receive orders on the mic, and crank out the food at lightning speed. I don't think Chinese takeout gets better than this. read more

There are 2 types of Chinese food in Philly, authentic Chinese and authentic Chinese take out. Their take out food is by far one of the best and consistent by a long shot. I've never seen a take out do such a high volume of business where they have 4+ chefs, 3 counter people and a microphone system. That really speaks to their quality of food and the repeat customers. Get the fried chicken wings, they are the best around. I even like them more than Soho's double fried Korean wings. Located in a strip mall, there's plenty of parking and they'll have you out of there in 10mins. Order ahead and avoid the wait. Take out only. read more

Delicious Food! Great Pricing! I have been a frequent visitor but have not had the time to review. I have tried a number of items off the menu and have yet to be disappointed. My favorite is the sesame chicken which is cooked to perfection with just the right amount of sauce. I am getting hungry just thinking about it lol. Great place! read more

My family and I have ordered from ChinaKing for over 20 years but recently I've purchase, something very simple, chicken wings. Both times they failed to clean their chicken appropriately. The chicken still had the skin hairs on them, Yak!!! read more

I've lived in the surrounding neighborhood for many years and the decline in quality is noticed. I recently purchased the chicken and broccoli, spare ribs and fried chicken which use to be exceptional but now I will not return after several disappointments. read more
