I was a little hesitant at first. Any Chinese food place that has "voted best" is usually pretty good, or horrible. On a side note who exactly are these places voted best by? So I always go the safe route when I never have eaten at a Chinese restaurant and get cashew chicken. The portions were good, price was fair. I will say this; they have the absolute best Lo-Mein I've ever had!!! I still need to try their general chicken, but it's definitely a top 3 restaurant for me. read more

this was a really bad experience overall. we tried to place an online order for pickup. our online order did not go through on accident, which was no one's fault, however we ended up waiting about 10 minutes for them to make our order. not a big deal at all and i assumed it should be fresh food because of this mix up. however the food was terrible. i got the regular kung pao chicken meal with fried rice. the kung pao had a VERY VERY small portion of chicken, shown in the picture. that's an absurd amount of chicken for a chicken dish. the rest was all cabbage and onions. this was by no means kung pao chicken. there was no peanuts or any other vegetables at all. all onion and cabbage. the other photo is the fried rice which was cold and tasted soggy. this meal was about $9-10 so i paid all that money for cold cabbage and onions and just threw most of it away. i would not recommend this place at all. read more

Order is wrong every single time. Do not order online. They forget something, wrong size, no veggies, no rice, always something. Taste is good and everything so at least they have that. read more

Placed a large order online arrived to pick it up lots of missing items only part of the order was ready due to computer issues had to wait while the rest was prepared. Only offered extra fortune cookies for inconvenience read more

this place is consistent with its food and size of it. It's quite enjoyable, especially when you eat later than most people where most places are closed. I go with the bourbon chicken its Out of this World if you get a chance, you gotta try it. made fresh each order so youcan't really beat that. and most people can't tell but his rice has a nice savory it can't tell you what it is, but if you look for it, you'll be able to tell that it's yummy yummy compared to the standard. The Place is always clean !!! so you have a restaurant here that's clean makes the food fresh for you which is a good atmosphere to eat in and on top of all that which most people can't do with restaurants he's a strong community supporter. WOW read more

First thing I noticed was sighn everywhere saying top rated in town when we order our food Eveything tasted wierd and old and the noodles tasted like dirty dish rags read more

The fried dumplings are not fried dumplings. Do not order these or you will regret it. The General Tso's chicken is terrible. There was no flavor and the chicken was hand tossed in generals sauce. Half of the chick was not covered and was more like chicken fingers. Do not order here, just go to another place. read more

Great food, great service, nice and clean building. We tried the sesame chicken, mango chicken, sweet and sour chicken, and the crunchy roll sushi. All really great food! Loved the egg rolls as well. Will definitely be back. read more

I got there to order take out before 9pm (they close at 10:30) I ordered cashew chicken, shrimp fried rice and vegetable lo mein. When I got home I tried the rice and it was FAULTY and smelled and taste vinegary, they definitely noticed when they put it in the box, I kept calling and someone kept picking up and hanging. I threw the rest of the food away I couldn't keep eating after those 2 bites of that rice, a shame! read more

Look. If a place has to put "Best" all over their restaurant, it probably isn't. I have no idea how they've won a single award, let alone all they claim. We've eaten here several times. I've NEVER been impressed with ANYTHING. It's edible, but nothing to get excited over. There are FAR better oriental restaurants in Springfield. Even on the North side. And, they don't get anywhere near being the best in the state. Bottom line: Ignore their hype. Give it a try, if you want. But, know going in, you're not gonna be blown away. read more

The food was great! Kai waited on me and she was very patient, and kind. What a great asset to the team!

Eat while I work in town, very good food, plenty of food in fact I usually take some home for dinner!

This was not Asian food! This was deep fried chicken drenched in Asian flavored gravies that were not very good! The fried rice is white with peas, the egg rolls were squishy and I would not recommend ever eating at this place in my life again. I would say that the young lady working the counter was very nice and was very helpful when we called in our order. read more

Unfortunately was not what I expected. Came out too salty and no distinguished beef fried rice flavor. Sauce too dark and not good appealing. I had it much better before. I hope they can make it up soon. read more

The food is not good here nor is the food served the way it is advertised. Upon paying for my order I waited 10 minutes before the cashier finally came back to the window only to tell me that my food will take an extra 15 minutes, so I proceed to tell him okay sounds good are they making it fresh he responded yes after waiting I get my food brought out to me without a drink the sushi I ordered was very soggy and falling apart because there was so much sauce inside when I specifically asked for it to be put on the side then my extra spicy general chicken was very sweet not spicy at all. This establishment is far from what they state in a banner that is in front of their restaurant. read more

I ordered the Cashew Chicken combo with steamed rice and a crab rangoon. I ended up receiving the Cashew Chicken with fried rice, an egg roll, a crab rangoon, and an additional order of steamed rice, and a full order of crab rangoons. Much more then what I ordered and the receipt reflected as such. The chicken was average (all white meat), the crab rangoons/egg roll was burnt. And the rice tasted what I can only describe as "soap." I would not recommend this place to anyone. read more

King's Asian Chef - Potstickers - Chinese Near Me - Springfield, Missouri

Ordered lunch on 11/04/19, had it delivered via Door Dash.... this is not a review of the delivery service. The food arrived hot and fresh, so no issues there. Ordered an Egg Roll, Hot and Sour Soup and General Tso Chicken it also came with one Crab Rangoon... First the soup, no meat, very little spice, and very little flavor. I always order the Hot and Sour soup from a Chinese restaurant that I have never been to before. If they get this right, I know I have a pretty good chance the rest of the meal is going to be fine. Since it was just meh... I was worried... Egg Roll, again meh... typical egg roll nothing special no flavor. I would guess it was a manufactured frozen egg roll they throw into the deep fryer when someone orders Crab Rangoon, again just a below average item with very little flavor. General Tso Chicken, it look appetizing threw the clear lid of the container, so my hopes were heightened. Upon further investigation I found that this restaurant adds zucchini, bamboo shoot, water chestnuts, cabbage, and broccoli to their recipe.*(Oh and there was the typical breaded and fried chicken chunks) A for effort, but this is not General Tso Chicken... Please watch the documentary "The Search For General Tso" you will see the real deal! The flavor was good, but very misleading in the recipe. I'm sorry I can only give two stars as this was not General Tso Chicken. My search continues for General Tso Chicken in Springfield, Mo..... read more

This used to be my favorite place for Chinese food , until tonight that is. I went through the drive through, waiting way too long, and when I finally got home couldn't believe my eyes. The egg roll was completely gross (I've enjoyed theirs before) and the food was not good. Something has changed and I will not be returning. Sad because Springfield doesn't have great Chinese food read more

Not good Chinese food. Just passing through town and should have known when no cars in the parking lot. Burnt egg rolls and wontons. Chicken wasn't bad. Glad I asked for white meat. Rice pretty tasteless. read more

On my way home, leaving the city of Springfield MO, I decided to give this place a try and I'm rather delighted that I did! I believe this restaurant opened last year and they already have a lot of award winning recognition to back up their good food. The staff here is SUPER polite and TRULY shows appreciation for you selecting their restaurant as your choice of dining. Restaurants always get extra kudo points from me when I receive something I wasn't expecting and here you can help yourself to a light complimentary salad bar which also has (2) tasty traditional soups (hot n sour and egg drop). I ordered their general tso's combination plate which comes with rice, (1) crab rangoon and (1) egg roll. I also ordered a bowl of their wonton soup. The cost of my meal was affordable and the meal itself was delicious, the wonton soup was actually one of the best wonton soups that I've ever had. I give this place 2 thumbs up and I'm sure they will have plenty of awards to receive for the year 2018. read more

As former Springfield residents, we always try to stop in for cashew chicken while passing through. Our normal cashew chicken spot was closed for remodeling. So, we went searching for a different restaurant to get our fix. King Asian Chef was just a short drive away. So, we gave them a shot. We ordered a large cashew chicken with all white meat, general's chicken with all white meat, double orders of egg rolls and crab rangoon. WOW! So good! From this day forward, they will have all of our Chinese food business. On top of that, the egg rolls are absolutely the best we've ever had. Great Job! read more

Just ordered on there menu and appetizers were burnt on takeout? But they still sent us home with this! I wish my Beef and Broccoli looked like the picture they have on Yelp( not even close ) Not very good and pretty disappointed:( read more

Places that hype their own food as the best usually don't live up to the hype. This place fits that same mold. What made me try this restaurant was the giant banner stating the "best sweet & sour chicken" and the best "hot & spicy chicken". I stopped in and ordered both for carryout. The guy that took the order was very good with great customer service skills. I sat and waited for my food and unfortunately I watched the kitchen prepare the food. The lady that was filling the orders did not wear any gloves while she played the food using her bare hands. Instead of using tongs, she grabs the egg roll with her hands and plops it on the plate. As she dishes the rice, she scoops it with a spoon, but uses her other hand to keep the rice in place and to "mold" it. Ultimately, the food was okay at best. Both chicken dishes were the same fried chicken pieces with the pre-made sauces drizzled over them. I expected more of a traditional tempura chicken, however this is similar to KFC's Nashville hot or Golden chicken. Overall, I would not return and I will look for a different place for Chinese. read more

King's Asian Chef - The "Best Sweet & Sour Chicken" - Chinese Near Me - Springfield, Missouri

While driving around Springfield, I thought I found a little diamond in disguise. Their sign caught my eye when I saw that they were voted Missouri's best Chinese Restaurant.. I had high hopes for Kong's Asian Chef. I wasn't sure what to order so I order their #1 Cashew Chicken meal. I assumed that it was their most popular item on the menu, so why not!? I was disappointed with what I got. What I got was some flour coated fried chicken topped with what tasted like store bought sauce and some cashews on top. There was some plain white rice and vegetables egg roll on the side. The only positive I can give them is that I could tell the chicken was prepared fresh. The sauce they had on top was not good, it tasted store bought and lacking of any seasoning. I can not recommend King's Asian Chef. They need to replace the chef in King's Asian Chef. read more

Food is great. They have the best bourbon chicken and they're rice is always perfect, never burnt like other places I've been to. The only thing is they seem to have no idea or any consistency to their sizes. We literally order the same thing every time and we never know what size we're going to get. Sometimes the Lo Mein will be a shareable size and sometimes it's the same size as the cup of rice. It's like a little surprise when we open the bag. read more

Great service every time my family and I visit! The food is really good and the crab ragoons are perfect!

If you happen to drive by this restaurant you will notice they have a very large banner, and on their sign stating "voted #1 in Missouri". The owner probably thinks its a cute little gimmick or advertisement. But in all reality I have driven by the place for years, (and eaten twice) and they just change the year the were "voted" the best, year after year after year. Wanna know where this "voting" took place? On their Facebook page, with a Facebook survey. On their Facebook with their people voting. It's cute. Making it sound like it was in some national publication or something. Except for the fact that they make terrible food and lie. Trust me this is not the best in Springfield or Missouri. Not by a long shot. Food each time I have been has been old and terrible. In fact this place isn't even the best on their own street. It is actually sandwiched between two really good Asian places on Glenstone, Hong Kong Inn on North Glentone (great Springfield Chinese) and Teriyaki House on South Glenstone (more Japanese fare). Anyway if you decide to go take notice of you being the only person in line. Because I never see anyone eating there for some reason. Then drive by Hong Kong Inn a mile down the road and look at their line. It is always packed everyday and for good reason. read more

Awesome price, awesome food, awesome service, and even better music! Love this place! Free soup and salad with every meal as well. It's basically what you would expect from a Springfield Asian place only a few steps better. I've only been once, but will be bringing a large group this Sunday night for a real test! Cheap yet amazing potstickers! I'm kind of a potsticker freak and this place did not disappoint! The owner is a super nice guy, and correction, they ARE open all day Sunday's despite what Yelp says! Come check this place out! read more

This is definitely not traditional Chinese Food. I cook professionally....never trust a Chinese restaurant with no Asians eating in the restaurant. Two white boys were the cooks...another bad sign. The hot n sour soup was Egg Drop soup with some vinegar and hot sauce in it.. The vegetarian eggrolls were frozen Birds eye vegetables flash fryed with duck sauce from a bottle. My eggplant with fried tofu was gloppy and the tofu was hard. I asked for money back on the soup and the young man told me he could not return my money. I asked to speak to the manager and the kid gave me the owner's telephone number (who was not here minding his store.) Don't darken the door.... read more

The establishment has only been open for an hour and a half and so far I have waiting in drive thru for going on 20 mins. If u had not already paid I would have left. The staff gave no notice to how long my food would take. What should have been 6 to 7 mins turned into almost half an hour for one order. The food was sub par and no additional condiments were provided. read more

The service was so amazing today! Best Asian food I've had in a long time! Our waiter was so attentive & checked on us frequently. The food was to die for especially the Mango Chicken. Will be coming back soon! read more

The food from this restaurant was inedible. Vegetables that tasted like plastic. Fried food that tasted like rotten milk (what? yes...). General Tso chicken that neither used General Tso sauce nor anything that tasted like chicken. One bite of each dish. Spat out each bite. read more

They got my meal wrong on Sunday... the guy on the phone told me I had a free meal when I came back... and he said he wrote my name down to get this meal. He didn't end up writing my name down... because when I called back to get my free meal, the owner wanted to call me and "verify" to make sure I was not lying. These shenanigans aren't worth going to the only semi-late night Chinese food place in Springfield. Come on King's... you're better than this. read more

This was an incredibly average restaurant with below average visit. Food: A masterclass in mediocrity. Everything was very bland and over salty, the egg rolls had a really weird sour taste to the filling and the crab Rangoon was almost sickly sweet. Service: Service was friendly, but seriously scattershot. I ordered online for pick up and after over half an hour, it still wasn't ready. I waited another 20 minutes, and had to turn around on the way home because they forgot half my order. Overall not terrible but in need of improvement read more
