I have been eating at this establishment for a least five years. Ate my last meal today. Got to be where my family name/address was recognized. This cordiality was refreshing and reciprocated by our patronage and verbiage. Creature of habit , I consistently get the pao pao platter Now renamed the poo poo platter So big it had to be stapled shut to keep goodies in container. Now the staples are decorative, due to the fact there is less product. Being in hospitality I understand some cuts are necessary. When it is quite obvious a patron is not getting what was received before it is insulting. Especially when the fried items come from a box instead of made in house . The thing that made me write this post is the shrimp actually fits its name. How do you butterfly plankton? The before shrimp was at least twice this size. Also the soup was cold. The is a ServSafe no no. Do better read more

Pick up order on a sick day. Order was ready on time and fresh. Nothing fancy, normal take out food. Teenagers thought the combo meals were small, compared to other local places. read more

Friendly staff and quick service. The dining room is standard for a Chinese takeout place--a few tables and not a lot of lighting. Food was excellent and ready right on time. Happy with our meal. read more

Food King is our local go to Chinese restaurant for takeout. The food is always hot, fresh, and well packaged with plenty of sauces and fortune cookies. I particularly love their sweet and sour chicken and this time I also tried their szechwan chicken (mild spice level). The szechwan was packed with stir fried veggies and chicken and the sauce was just the right spice level for me. I also regularly order the orange chicken which is always crispy and coated in a sweet and citrusy sauce. You may find some orange peel in the sauce which is just an indicator to me of the freshness and flavor of the sauce. I've ordered pick up and delivery orders and the service has always been fast and orders accurate. If you're craving Chinese takeout, Food King is a great choice! read more

I paid $18 for a mediocre general tsos chicken. Not worth it. I was ok with paying less for mediocrity or more for quality but the dish was bland, kinda soggy. And more breading than meat. read more

Three stars for food & one for courtesy. On a whim, I decided to try this restaurant for their lunch special. I saw that Yelp had no real current information but thought I'd chance it anyway. At the time there was just one gentleman who took the order and cooked. He was very polite and gracious. I ordered the orange chicken with fried rice & a spring roll. The spring roll was small, but so fresh & flavorful tasting and crispy. I would go back just to order a few of those. My lunch container was filled to the brim! I felt the rice was a bit bland for my taste but there was plenty of sauce on the chicken to compensate for that. The kitchen is right there in the open so you can watch them prepare your food, which is a good thing Of course the restaurant itself is extremely basic. I wouldn't mind sitting there for a quick lunch but I had my food to go. I will post photos of the current menu since there was nothing on here that was up-to-date. Pieces were kind of dry so I'd like to come back and maybe try a beef and broccoli with lo mein, or some sweet-and-sour chicken. Thank you Food King for your kind service. read more

I loved it. Quick , hot, and a great service! I came in, and they serviced me immediately. Not only that, but the place was clean. At first I was going to wait until I got home but ate in there instead! 5 stars for me. read more

Consistent and they make sure your order is correct each time. The food is good and I have not had a bad experience at Food King.

I decided to treat myself to some Chinese food for dinner at Food King. This is a small Chinese takeout place in a strip mall off of E 86th street, but I ordered through Uber Eats. I have driven past the restaurant and looked inside, and does not appear to be much impressive ambiance wise from the outside. As far as the food is concerned, it is decent and tastes good. I ordered the crab ragoons since it was a buy one, get one free special through Uber Eats, and the sweet and sour chicken. The crab ragoons were delicious, but nothing to write home about to your parents. The sweet and sour chicken is the same, but tasted great. This was definitely comfort food and Food King delivered that to me with great expectations. If you are looking for simple Chinese food for a nice dinner, Food King is the place to go to for your needs and wants. If you are looking to have your mind blown away with an incredible meal, then I would advise you take your money elsewhere. You will not get that at Food King. read more

So far so good. Food King is your typical Chinese restaurant a coworker told me about. I'm accustomed to East coast flavor and Food King provides me that. I feel like I'm part Asian and I am always looking for Asian cuisine as my comfort food and I'm always on the look for a great place to satisfy my craving. They have a pretty good list of lunch items for a great price. I couldn't decide between the general tso's chicken and the Szechuan chicken but ended up getting the Szechuan because it had veggies (trying to end 2018 on a healthy note). I've gotten it twice and have been satisfied both times. I wish the sauce had a teench more flavor but it's good. I think I'll try the general tso's chicken next time. Potions are really nice. Their dinner portion was enough for two meals for me. The staff is friendly. The lady was able to tell me about my order history; I guess they keep track of your orders based on your phone number. I liked that because if I don't remember-they will. So it'll be on my list; probably a place I'll visit often. read more

This place is great for quick Chinese food! I ordered the General Tso chicken and Crab Rangoon's. The chicken was good with some pieces being a little tough. Rangoons were awesome and had a good amount of filling. My only recommendation would be getting vegetable fried rice rather than whatever comes with it. I couldn't identity the type of meat cooked in the rice (the white item in bottom left of pic) but it was my least favorite part. The drastic color difference made it questionable. Ordering was easy over the phone and it was delivered in 20 minutes. They take care over the phone and you have to give them a tip amount here. The receipt does not have the fill in the blank option. Would recommend for your Chinese cravings! read more

Mediocre Chinese food. It tastes just like every other place. I was grateful they were open on Christmas, but disappointed with my food. I tried the crab Rangoon and General Tso's chicken. Both were just meh. I wouldn't choose to eat here again. read more

Food King - General Tso's chicken. Just okay. - Chinese Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

I'm sorry but I don't get all the high ratings. This food was not anything special. It was mediocre at best. It was all bland with no flavor what so ever. In all my years of eating Chinese food, I never knew that was possible! Maybe I went on a bad day, but I ordered a lot of food and it all was disappointing. Customer service was great though! read more

I originally found this spot via DoorDash. Yet once I tried the food and found out it was so close to our house, we started making the short drive on a pretty regular basis. First things first: don't let the strip mall location and outside look detour you. The dishes are always made fresh and portion sizes are worth the cost. Our go-to meals are the General Tsos (extra spicy) and their Chicken Lo Mein. They also have crab Rangoons that are pretty good as well! Service is quick, friendly, and they sometimes give us free cookies or egg rolls with our meals. I do sometimes think the meals are a bit expensive, but most restaurants are these days. They do have a $7.99 lunch special though! I do wish they would upgrade the inside of the restaurant, it's not very welcoming to sit in so we always get our food to go. Other than that, a nice hidden gem. read more

My husband and I are not from Indiana. However, we love our Chinese food so we found this restaurant close to the job site at Nora Plaza. My husband found this restaurant to be extremely good and fresh tasting. He always orders the shrimp lo mein and the shrimp fried rice combination plate. We have also tried the chicken wings. My favorite dish is shrimp egg foo, young, however, the one time that I ordered the dish from them, when I got back to the hotel I noticed that the gravy for the dish looked very different than I've ever seen it. Without even trying to open it. I called them to explain that they must have given me the wrong gravy when the young lady came on the phone. She explained to me. that the gravy they make for their shrimp egg foo young is homemade. The only issue I have with that is that I've only had shrimp egg foo young a certain way and it normally comes with a brown gravy. I tried this gravy in the container but I didn't like it. It was Sweet, which I didn't think went with the shrimp egg foo young. However the part that I was happy and impressed about was when I called to explain that I was not thrilled about this different homemade gravy for the egg foo young, the young lady offered to give me some shrimp fried rice. Which is what I said I would have ordered if I had known about the non traditional sauce. I have never ever been given that opportunity like that before if I didn't like something from a Chinese restaurant, they normally say you buy, you eat no refund. They are extremely nice and have excellent customer service. The shrimp egg foo young itself, tasted pretty good. I can't speak for all of their dishes, because I only eat dishes with shrimp in them, but I love their customer service. read more

Really more like 3.5, but they deliver and if you pick it up yourself, food is prepared quickly. Girlfriend swears this is the best Chinese takeout in the city, but I think I have other favorites. But they deliver, you can order online, and prices are reasonable. Egg rolls are consistent, and they use a good amount of vegetables in their dishes. Items marked as spicy really aren't that spicy, and I'm someone who doesn't like spice. If you want spice, tell them to throw more on. read more

If you are looking for good Chinese take out that is affordable, look no further! I used to frequent Food King when I lived in the area and was always pleased with the food. They have great portion sizes and pricing. I went for lunch last week and got potstickers, egg drop soup, and an egg roll for under $10 before tip! The order of potstickers came with 8 potstickers that were fried and decent size. The small egg drop soup was enough for me to have half one day and half the next. The food was all delicious! Attached is their current menu as well read more

Okay, I'll confess there are just some days when I don't want to cook and nothing sounds better than Chinese Food. I went in for my typical take out order and they have changed one of my favorite menu items. (insert sad face with tears running down my cheeks here). Previously they offered Steamed Dumplings (the fat soft doughie kind) and Pot Stickers (the crescent thin dough kind). Now they still say they offer Steamed Dumplings and Pot Stickers but....alas... They are now only offering the Pot Stickers (the crescent thin dough kind) steamed and calling them "Steamed Dumplings" and the same thing fried is called "Pot Stickers". No more of the yummy fat soft doughie Steamed Dumplings, sigh.... the rest of the menu items appear to be business as usually and still yummy. I'm now on the search for real steamed dumplings again. read more

I'll say this at the outset- there is no great Chinese food in Indianapolis. Sad, but true. That being said, this place is my go to for one reason. The Singapore chow mei fun. It's this spicy, Thai curry noodle dish. Super thin rice noodles with pork, chicken and shrimp. It's outstanding. I had never had it before trying it here and it's my go to order. Their young chow fried rice is also very tasty. read more
