Happy I found this place on a Friday night so I could fulfill my shrimp craving! I had the hot and sour soup which was pretty good and had a great balance of mushrooms, veggies, etc. I also ate the kung pao baby shrimp with plain fried rice, which was pretty good. Compared to other Chinese restaurants, I think this place was average but I would come again especially since it's in a good convenient location. The staff was nice and the inside of the restaurant was clean and spacious. The parking lot was very big at the front so there is plenty of easy parking for customers. read more

China King - Hot & Sour Soup, Kung Pao Baby Shrimp, Plain Fried Rice - Chinese Near Me - Des Peres, Missouri

Ordered from here last night and knew something had changed. Hot and Sour soup was not the same. Ordered a St.Paul and it was greasy and flat. About half the thickness of previous orders. I ordered here several months ago and the food was not good as well, but we thought we would give it another try. Won't be coming back here. Cutting corners will cost you customers. read more

I ordered delivery. I had the hot braised chicken and it was excellent, maybe the best I've ever had. The food was also packed either care.

The other day I had chicken fried rice but it didn't dawn on me until after I ate half of it, that it had very few vegetable - like sprouts, carrots, peas and egg. I also had a shrimp St. Paul sandwich and it also seemed to be lacking something. read more

I was looking forward to trying a new Chinese spot in the area, but unfortunately, this meal didn't quite hit the mark. I ordered for delivery, and while the service was prompt and the food arrived hot, the flavors were significantly out of balance. Both main dishes were overwhelmingly salty, seemingly from an over-reliance on soy sauce. It masked the natural flavors of the ingredients and made it difficult to finish the meal. I really wanted to love this place as I'm looking for a go-to Chinese restaurant nearby, but the seasoning needs a much lighter touch to be enjoyable. read more

Food was fantastic! Wife thought her sweet and sour chicken was best she's had. Store Owner/Manager Tina was super helpful, friendly and knowledgeable, and restaurant was bright and clean. We live in Webster and this is the best Chinese food around us, big portions too! read more

The food is good and the service is great definitely I want back again Probably need more signs to see tur the street more better read more

The ownership changed recently and the food just isn't as good. They have gotten my order wrong more than once.

The food tonight was awful, we didn't realize the restaurant had changed ownership recently...too bad we will not be back. What was once good is barely edible. read more

Great Food.China King is my go to, for excellent Chinese Takeout. The House Special of Fried Rice as well as the Egg Foo Young (with Extra Gravy), are delicious . Love their Steamed Dumplings . read more

China King - The House Special Fried Rice. - Chinese Near Me - Des Peres, Missouri

Opened and previously owned by a nice young couple it was a weekly go to. For 15-16 yrs we were greeted with smiles, often the delivery was even made by the owner, and the food was consistently good. I sincerely wish them happiness in their found success in this country. However, The new owner clearly does not care what made this franchise location so successful. The food used to be hot, very generous with freshness, and quality. Sometimes the complimentary almond cookies were so fresh they were slightly tender. Since the change of hands the prices have increased considerably and has not maintained quality. Yet still, We even gave it a second try....even worse than the first. The house special soup which used to be delish, now is polluted weak broth loaded with bok choi and tasted offal. The house special fried rice, was previously loaded with meats and prepared with pride, now - sparse and dry. Our fave hot braised wings, have now been so perverted, they are unrecognizable & meatless. I could not get a single bite without tiny pieces of crushed bone. I could go on, but you get the idea. Sadly what was the product of pride is now the shameless unconcerned churn and burn of barely edible mediocrity. Such a shame, we will resign ourselves to miss the convenience, and value of the old place, and yet never order from here again. read more

China King is a good option for what I think of as traditional St. Louis style Chinese takeout. The combo meals are definitely the way to go! They come with an entree, pork fried rice and an egg roll. I had the sweet and sour chicken which was delicious. The sauce comes on the side and was pretty thin (I liked it a lot, the consistency for me was better than other places which have a really thick sauce). The egg rolls were also awesome - filled with lots of meat and veggies with a good crispy outside. The fried rice was nothing special, definitely tasted better with some extra soy sauce added in. I also tried an appetizer of dumplings. You can choose fried or steamed and I went with fried. The dough was tender on the inside and crispy on the bottom. The filling was seasoned well and they came with a tasty dipping sauce with a little kick. We ordered through door dash and the food arrived quickly and was still hot and crispy when it arrived. read more

It's really good Chinese food and they put plenty of sauces and everything you need in the take out bag. Been here for years and they are a very hard working family. I'm happy to give them my business. Large portions so we always have another meal in leftovers! read more

Possibly one of the nastiest meals I've ever had. I couldn't eat my meal. We ordered two mu shu vegetables for our family since we usually devour. I couldn't finish one and we took home the untouched second. Smelled sour and tasted like I smelled. The taste was stuck in my throat for hours. It was truly horrible. read more

Very good carry out last night. Hot and Sour soup was perfect!! Crab Rangoon was perfect. Veggie fried rice had a good amount of veggies. Everyone enjoyed the food. Much improved over the last time I visited. Used online ordering which was simple and gave me the option of paying with a card or with cash at the restaurant. I like that!! Complimentary almond cookies in the bag!! Thank you China King!! read more

China King - chicken and rice in a take out box - Chinese Near Me - Des Peres, Missouri

Food is pretty good. Used to doordash there and I saw a roach running around, kinda sus.

Most of the Chinese food on this side of town I've found to be not great. While not amazing, this place is what I expect when I get Chinese food. I always get great service, food's always ready on time. If they deliver, typically it shows up within the hour. Five stars for consistency. read more

There hot and sour soup is the best. I love that is a good spicy and they have tons of flavors. Their veggie bowl are also very delicious and fresh. The staffs are also super friendly!! read more

China King - Hot and sour soup so good and spicy!!! - Chinese Near Me - Des Peres, Missouri

I should have known not to eat there. I came during lunch time and there was no one there. The food was affordable but burnt and soaked in grease. The chicken looked like it had been burn and rebattered and fried to cover the burn. All in all the food was not worth it. read more

the food was ok the space is a bit outdated...soda machine broke tables typical for a china king

We ordered China King for delivery and it was absolutely delicious! We have tried many different Chinese food restaurants in the area and this is by far the best. Very reasonable pricing and the delivery was very fast too! All of the staff was very kind and courteous. We will absolutely be ordering from them a lot in the future! read more

Love the food and the delivery is usually fast and accurate. The hot and sour soup is delish!

China King is our go-to Chinese food take-out spot. The value is good. The dinner combination plates are $8 and come with fried rice and an egg roll. If you are really looking for a bargain, order one of their party platters. For $24 you'll get enough food to feed a family of 8. The food is ok. While the menu is robust, many of the dishes tate very similar. My wife likes the sweet and sour chicken and Singapore Mai Fun. I like the Curry Shrimp and steamed dumplings, We enjoy the St. Paul sandwhiches too. I live a little over a mile away. After I call in my order, put on my jacket and drive over, the food is very often ready... they are quick. read more

See all

Microphone system in this place is awful. They can't hear you at all so they make the wrong order. Then you get home find a hair in it. You call the store to explain the awful experience and they ask if you can hold. BEWARE! Also, the pork fried rice, not lo main, doesn't have much meat in it. read more

My favorite Chinese restaurant, love the food. When I lived in Kirkwood frequently had lunch or dinner. When I want Chinese will make the drive to China King. If I'm going to Kirkwood for some reason, will get take out food for home. read more

I love this place for a tasty, healthy, inexpensive takeout meal. They have an enormous menu, but I usually go with the "diet menu" steamed chicken and veggies. Chicken is tender and perfectly steamed and veggies crisp and super fresh. Portions are very generous.?They also have tables for dining in, if you prefer. Staff is unfailingly polite and accommodating. I see they've now enabled Grub Hub for online orders, so have additional cost for this convenience. Please tip generously, folks. These are lovely, hard working folks. read more

Always good & Constantly great service, the owners are sways there to make sure everything is ok

The food is good but I don't know if it is the restaurant or door dash that is so bad. During the middle of the day it took over two hours to get food. Also calls to inquire as to schedule were unanswered. I won't order delivery from here again unless I plan to eat in 4 hours later. read more

This place told me my order was $8.something and they charged my card $600 and drained my checking account... they told I'm getting a refund and to call the bank so I did and looked at my account and the bank said they're not processing a refund and to talk to the restaurant or file a dispute. So I called the restaurant back and she said "oh sorry it takes 3/5 business days". I said now I don't have gas money for this week what the heck?! And she said "sorry" and hung up. DO NOT EAT HERE read more

I have always had delicious food here. My go to order has been the egg drop won ton soup, the steamed potstickers, the chicken with snow peas and the green pepper steak. All were excellent and cooked to order. I will go back often. read more

Yeah I ordered for delivery through doordash. Nicest dasher though. Ordered the shrimp and mixed vegetables . Such a small portion for just one price? Ordered the shrimp fried rice...which I never got so I'll never know. I ordered egg rolls the mini and the spring. They tasted so bad I couldn't get through one. I'll just stick to the restaurants that I do know. Not worth it to venture into unknown territory. read more

We've been going here for years. Great for takeout or to dine in. The food is ready by the time you get there to pick up or within about 10 minutes of dinning in. They have great veggie options and give reasonable amounts of food. Never had a disappointing experience here! read more

I ordered on line my order for delivery. I received an email confirming my order@ 5:27 pm. I waited until 6:45 when I called them to find out if my order left. The girl took my phone number and told me my order would be here in 8 minutes. 30 minutes later I called to see where my order was. The girl told me they never got my order and didn't charge my card. I ordered from their website through yelp. She said you can't order through yelp. Worst customer service. Didn't even try to fill my order. This place SUCKS!!!!!! read more

Some of the worst Chinese food I've ever had. Super greasy and brown! The protein all tastes funky

We went here in a quick decision to try a carry-out Chinese that we'd never been. There were no veggies in the fried rice and it all tasted like burnt cooking oil -- the rice, Kung po chicken and the egg roll all tasted this way. read more

The stereotypical Chinese food spot. I like it. You don't always need smiles and friendly customer service. Sometimes I like the blunt, straight forward "what do you want?" (Yells order, gets it bagged) "There you go." And you're out of there in 10 min or less. The place looks divey, decorated with ornaments of cheap chinese posters and calendars. The kids are at mom's work today...they get to take over a whole table. How fun!? The food: I ordered one of my FAVORITE items that most don't really know about. The St. Paul Sandwich. Picture hot egg fu young (but your choice of meat, be it shrimp, pork, ham, beef, veggie) with lettuce, pickle, mayo, and all between cold refrigerated sliced white bread. Doesn't sound appealing? You don't even know...you don't even know...it's so good. Especially with a couple packets of hot sauce that they provide. Had some shrimp egg rolls on the side. Fresh, crunchy, and steaming hot They were lacking in shrimp and of flavor, perhaps because I inhaled them and burnt the crap out of my mouth while doing so. So hungry during that time. I usually just drench that type of food with in sweet and sour sauce. I was satisfied after my meal here and left with a semi-full belly. This place is was an ok place today! read more

This China King location is our favorite. The BF decided to stop here and try it one day on a whim since we pass it all the time. The restaurant is clean and the employees are friendly. It's actually a great place to either dine in or carry out. They always provide you with coupons in your oder. We love the location and hours. We can get our fix seven days a week. The food is very good and consistent. We're working our way through the menu. We love the ham fried rice and have now moved to the roasted pork fried rice as our new fave. The Shanghai spring rolls are a must every visit. My brother loves the orange chicken combination plate which comes with pork fried rice and an egg roll. The orange chicken is actually very good. We've also eaten and enjoyed the mongolian pork, fried dumplings and vegetable St. Paul. We've tried the chicken fried rice which we aren't too fond of and the combination appetizer plate which allows you try a variety of appetizers for your snacking pleasure. This way you know which apps to buy and which apps to avoid. The fried shrimp which comes with cocktail sauce and crab sticks were also good. The portions are plenty, served fresh and piping hot and the prices are reasonable. read more

Ordered delivery for a get-together. $41 for five people isn't that bad, in my opinion. I wasn't paying attention to the time, but the food seemed to arrive pretty promptly. Even though I ordered a simple dish (chicken fried rice) it was flavorful. My boyfriend was pleased with his sesame beef, and the order was packed with meat. They supplied us with plenty of sauce packets, gave us fortune cookies, and even threw in a free container of egg drop soup, which everyone agreed was tasty. Hot, delicious, reasonably priced food for delivery - no complaints here! read more

Love the food here! Had a craving for Sweet and Sour Chicken and my mom had the Shrimp fried rice. I loved my food and so did my mom. My husband and I usually get the family size Singapore noodles and it is a must have. I also always get and egg roll and crab Rangoon, but they are just ok. read more
