The homemade DanDan noodles were our favorite, which are served with ground pork in a spicy peanut sauce. We also got the three cup chicken which was so good, with a sweet, licorice-like glaze. Some other favorites were the black pepper chicken and the long hot chicken, if you enjoy spice. We had the ginger and scallion dish and was not our favorite, as the chicken had a unique consistency and was quite limp. Overall, good service and a relaxing ambiance in a bustling city.

Favorites were the pork kidney blossoms, the chongqing spicy chicken, the steamed sea bass with ginger, the sea bass in chili broth. Those were so good I'd get them again in a heartbeat; but I also feel like this is the kind of place where you can just randomly pick from the menu and you can't go wrong. On the flipside, because those dishes up there were so good, I actually thought the cold sesame noodles were just alright. They use a thinner more delicate noodle here that makes it much more sauce forward, but I feel I'm partial to thicker chewier noodles with spicy food. I want to stress that the noodles were tasty, but again, out of an excellent tasting menu we built for ourselves, it was the plain Jane of the bunch. Beyond that, they have some tasty baizhou (spelling?) that'll get you wasted while enjoying the food. Highly recommend you go with a large group. If you go with less than four people you will have food envy from all the tables who are sharing amazing dishes that your stomach just doesn't have room for.

(Note: if you only want smaller serving of their great, thick noodles, order $4 add-on as a side in place of rice with regular dish.) I always have leftovers to enjoy at home. Dumpling orders are large and shareable. (Always 6 or 8 pieces.) My fave when dining in is amazingly delicious and huge Fish Fillet in Hot and Sour Cabbage Broth. (That's best with rice side to help absorb broth.) So good and healthful to balance the dough density of whatever dumplings you might also order -- they're all great. When getting order to go (or delivered) I like Kung Pao Chicken; it travels well. Order added green veggie dish for sharing -- I lean toward Chinese Broccoli; you'll really want the balance with the delicious dumpling and noodle dishes. Large cocktail menu -- Lychee Martini is so refreshing. Important: cash only for dining in. There's an ATM by their front door. Takeout and delivery accepts credit cards. Most reasonably priced parking nearby (if you don't score a limited street spot) is ParkAmerica at 1040 Race St a few doors down.

I just get a feeling that the focus is on pushing alcoholic drinks rather than on the food. The pork buns felt like they were previously frozen and were very sweet. Shrimp dumplings tasted off.

Their food now is no better than the next guy and that's disappointing. Cash only btw. I write this because they do not post signs and a couple tables had to go grab cash from their ATM machine.

The non-Asian bartender took our orders and seemed very helpful at first, but then completely disappeared, leaving us to fetch our own silverware and water at our own volition. He also informed us that, yes, indeed, they have the Sichuan peppercorns like so many other restaurants, yet like so many other places, they failed to give them to us. There was, however, an aromatic presence given off by what appeared to be black cumin flakes in our cumin lamb. Had they put actual Chinese peppercorns in the dish, it might have balanced out the heavy cumin, which I tasted in my mouth hours after the meal. Ginger and a ton of garlic, both of which I associate with this cuisine, also would have been nice. I imagine the owner, once hyper declarative as to the authenticity of his restaurant, has a brand these days: a decent Sichuan sports bar catering the food for an American palette.....even their 3 Cups chicken is 'bone off'. I can not say I saw many Asian people dining here; perhaps they know better and just head on over to EMei in Chinatown. We also had the string beans with ground pork; they had the proper blistered look from being dry-fried, though the dish ended up a bit greasy and lacked the distinctive punch of preserved mustard greens and robust aromatics. All in all, we enjoyed the food, but the bartender abandoning us while helping himself to a twenty percent tip, combined with the lack of authenticity, is not enough to impress.

Mean people well really, man! G-d help you if he has to deliver your food too bc he cannot do two things at once! That's a dirty place I'm sure they arw so happy that you cant go in past the doorway because you would see trash ,water stains on ceiling and cruddy cold cases so gross. I never ask for soda from there and if they decide to send it ( which they don't send you anything free if your amount is so much ,if you don't ask for it) I empty and throw that bottle out as fast as it came in. and just in case you've noticed the portions are smaller and the prices went up since they've been back allowed into business. Way to many places on the "avenue" instead but dont go here read more

Although there are many varieties of self-service dishes there, it was not hygienic. We recently had a lunch meal there. Since we ate the sweet and sour pork and Char Siu red pork at there, which were left overnight or left for a few days, and we diarrhea after ate lunch meals. Now, we try to eat as little as possible Chinese food buffet meals. Possibly, because they are frugal or afraid of waste, they reprocessed pork left over from the day before yesterday or earlier. We decided not go to this Chinese restaurant located at sykes mountain AVE, White River Junction, VT, 05001 in the future. Very Very BAD experience in there read more

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.
