Solid 3.5-4/5 place to get your Cantonese BBQ fix. Takeout only. We got five orders of pork and (some chicken). Portions are very decently sized and came with soup as well. BBQ pork had too much fat for my liking. Chicken was on point. read more

A friend recommended this to me for chinese bbq and it was solid. I got the bbq pork and some roast duck and both were excellent. The bbq pork was soft, fat didnt feel tough or chewy, had great flavor and the duck was great as well. Very simple place, take out only. Feels like one of those old school HK style chinese bbq places which is very no-frills but solid food. The roast pork also looked really good so I would probably try that in the future. Service was friendly as well. read more

There's plenty of street parking, most required payment. This was a to go place only, no seating. We got the 名爐金豬 or Roasted Pork for $13.50 a pound and 琵琶鴨 or Pea Pa Duck for $30.50 each. Apparently they don't give sauce for the 名爐金豬 or Roasted Pork. The pork tasted alright, was hoping the skin was crispier. The sauce for the 琵琶鴨 or Pea Pa Duck was pretty good. The duck itself was dry, unflavored, and not good. Food was not good. At least the service was fast. read more

Worst food I that has ever had the disgrace of touching my tongue, gave me a couple of pieces of bony scraps, "bbq" they call it. Got food poisoning afterwards, they leave the meat out without properly storing it. read more

On Thursday, May 28th, I went to King BBQ in Chinatown to purchase a soy sauce chicken and a boiled chicken, specifically asking for the free-range chicken type. They offer free-range chicken for $26.50 after tax, compared to $18 for the regular chicken. After arriving home and tasting the chickens, neither tasted like what they used to sell as "free-range chicken." I called the shop and asked if they had a new chef, and was told they have a new owner. I explained that they didn't give me free-range chicken because the texture was dry and soft--it wasn't the same type of chicken I used to get when paying that price. The owner simply told me, "That is how our free-range chicken is now." If that's what their $26 chicken tastes like, I'd rather spend $4.99 on a Costco chicken, which tastes much better than what I got from their shop. I'm upset that I got ripped off, paying $53 for two chickens that I don't even want to eat. Please think carefully before buying from that shop. Their quality has gone downhill, and worst of all, they've cheated their customers. read more

This place always does me dirty. The portions are smaller than any other similar place in the International District. They crowed the container with rice then spread out the meager portions over the top of the rice so it looks more full of protein than it really is. They do not accept credit or debit cards only cash. Or maybe that's just what they tell me when I visit their spot. They also don't offer any hot peppers, hot pepper sauce, crispy chili peppers or anything spicy to go on the food. Huh?! How does an Asian food restaurant in the ID not have additional spices customers can add to their food. It is also the most bland food in the entire ID. This place is consistently the worst! The only reason why I got food from them today is because Asian Barbecue (a far better and similar food spot that gives all their customers incredible service, happened to have already been closed for the day but I took that chance because they are that good. Asia Barbecue is also close by 2 blocks up and over on Jackson). I still wanted bbq pork and pig ears. Ugh! Such a colossal disappointment. I am never going back. read more

Picked up one of their lunch combos. It was mostly rice and bones. Not much meat, looked like they sold me their scraps. The duck tasted very gamey and extra salty. Their roast pork was extra dry and no crackling skin. They might treat their exclusive patrons better. Good luck running a business on them alone. I'm saving my money and going somewhere else. read more

Not very fresh or memorable No seating, very no frills Only option nearby that had quick takeout (most places didn't accommodate dogs, limiting our options...probably would have never gotten anything here on a normal basis) Ours came in a styrofoam box, not sure what's the difference between the plastic vs styrofoam days Wasn't appetizing enough for me even to take a photo before eating (so rare) Would not recommend. I'm used to the stuff in Flushing, NY which has higher turnover. Looked like no one was going in and out of this place (normally signal for me not to order) My brother said the duck was extremely gamey, had the organs/neck with odd/rotted things inside his. read more

I don't think this is the right spot for Chinese BBQ for me. I came here to buy a lunch combo during my break time. Two meats and rice. Pretty basic item that I tried in numerous restaurant. I picked the roast pork and scallion ginger chicken for my two meats choice. I didn't really pay much attention until I got back to my office. When I open my bag and taken the food out. First impression didn't make the cut already. It is really messy and small portion. Not to mention that the cut of the pork and chicken are huge like... can you chop pieces correctly?! Most of the places I went to before for Chinese or Cantonese cuisine for BBQ, they will pair vegetable on the side but this lunch combo is just plain. The taste wasn't there as well. Roast pork was too fat and greasy, usually a great roast pork should be balance lean, fat, lean, fat... There roast pork is mostly fat. The chicken was too big and flavor tasted unbalance. And still got plenty of chicken hair in them? Extra protein?! Lol... Overall, no second chance here! read more

This review is long overdue. My parents and I have come here since I was a baby when Seattle felt like a small town. The butcher and the lady who work here are so kind and familial. They always remember us and greet us gladly despite how busy they are. The location is close to uwajimaya and there is plenty of street parking to hop off and grab some quick dinner. The food is amazing. We have ordered everything from meal boxes to a whole roast duck. They also have phenominal barbecue pork and roast pork. Their food is not for the vegetarians in this neighborhood, but if you are a meat eater this is the place for you. They can chop and package meats for you or leave them for you to roast and chop. Whatever you choose, their roast meets are crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside with perfect seasoning. The service is always great, sometimes they are very busy so it is helpful to have an idea what you like and come with a little patience or not near meal hours for less crowds. The prices is fairly reasonable. They do prefer cash so if you can try to bring some. Overall, highly recommend king's bbq whether for a quick lunch box or for a nice family dinner. This is the best for asian roast meats! Pro tip: for thanksgiving and christmas you can drop off your turkey and they will brine, season and roast it for you. Yum! read more

We decided to go out of our normal bbq place and checked this place out. There was a line outside so that's always a good thing. We had lunch prior to this so didn't really want to grab too much food so we ended up getting half a pound of bbq pork and half a pound of sausage. The butcher did a pretty rough estimation so we ended up getting more than what we need and paid more as well... The meat was just ok in my opinion, not great but not bad. The sausage was something unique that I don't see often and it was tasty. It looks like there lunch special is a good price so I might come back for that. Oh and it's cash only. read more

Duck was meaty and good. Duck roasted is a bit less than other places aka less crunchy but the meat was tender and yummy compare to other places. Wish they include veggies like at least cabbage or something with their lunch plate. It was just rice and meat. Good deal still. Nice folks. Clean looking facility read more

The only problem I have with King's Barbeque House is that they are not linked with any delivery service, so placing an order for delivery is IMPOSSIBLE at this time. Maybe they know that if they offered delivery, their business would grow exponentially and they prefer to avoid that. I don't know; they're inscrutable. I'm disabled. If you're not disabled GO THERE and eat one for the Gipper! read more

Probably the best duck that you can get on this side of the Pacific ocean! I've been eating here since 2012 and keep coming back for all that goodness. It is a simple restaurant with no seating and no real amenities except for the fallen angels making the food. I always get the duck and rice combo. They also have a couple other options but make sure they dump some duck fat on top of the rice for that extra flavor! read more

King's is where I end up when I don't quite know what I want for lunch. My go to is usually the roast duck. But friend and fellow Yelper, Nelson L posted about their BBQ sausage on Instagram. So of course I was craving it, and it's close to work, Only going in a couple days of week with the stay at home order. They open at 10am which is nice since I had to help on something at noon. They take cash only. It was definitely nice to get two proteins a try this time the variety was nice. This place is nothing fancy but it's always clean and quick. read more

Stumbled upon this place since we were in the area. Tried the roast pork ($11.75/lb) vs $18.99 (Famous Kitchen Issaquah). We ended buying a pound but it tasted alright and not as good as Famous Kitchen. We used it to make a claypot. Cash only. read more

While waiting for a table at Dough Zone, we thought we would snack on some roasted pork, chicken leg, bbq pork, and bbq sausage. This is definitely not a fancy place. It's a hole in the wall that pretty much does only take out and takes cash (you know its gotta be good). They also have a combo to-go special. The roasted pork was pretty good. It had the perfect crunch factor. The bbq pork and bbq sausage were also good, could use a bit more flavor on the pork, but overall good. This is definitely a quick grab and go place that's reasonably priced. read more

I've been going here for years, more frequently since my favorite @ Rainier BBQ closed down. This to me is probably my go-to for BBQ duck & pork in Chinatown. I love the juicy texture and taste to it and I'm never disappointed. The dark sauce that comes with it is my ultimate fave. Prices are rising now @ $22.02 after tax but when I'm craving for something, price doesn't matter. Cash only. Located right across from Oasis. read more

King's Barbeque House - BBQ duck - $22.02 after tax - Chinese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

BBQ is their specialty and that is all they do, all day! They offer: Roast Pork, BBQ Pork, BBQ Ribs, BBQ Sausage, Roast Duck, Roast Chicken, Baked Salty Chicken, Soy Sauce Chicken and BBQ Box lunches to go. I got an order of both the roast pork and BBQ Pork. What a waste of my money! The pork was dry and fatty and the BBQ was overcooked with no flavor whatsoever. Kau Kau BBQ nearby is so much better.... sad to say, I will not be coming back. Update: I went here January 2012 and found that the duck wasnt too bad so upped the stars to 3 stars. This could be because I put it in my Convection oven!? Hmmmm, if you must buy here, you gotta heat it up right as well. read more

5 stars for the amazing roast pork and duck. Love the sauces and the lunch box prices are great. Service is hit or miss, the usual with businesses in Chinatown. Locally owned and has been a staple in the area for some time. I saw someone pick up a huuuuuuge full blown whole roasted pig, i assume for a wedding or bday, and it looked amazing! read more

I stumbled upon this place on Thanksgiving night after a futile attempt at trying to find takeout options in Chinatown (King's was pretty much the only restaurant open that was located near King's Street Station as I was trying to catch a train then). King's Barbecue House is a Chinese barbeque hole-in-the-wall restaurant that is pretty much take-out and cash only. Thus, there are no seats nor tables in the restaurant. You order, pay, and leave. For a Chinese hole-in-the-wall restaurant, their prices were pretty reasonable though definitely not the cheapest I've seen. I opted for their Cha Siu/Shao lunchbox, which was essentially two servings of Cha Siu/Shao pork and a bed of rice. I really enjoyed the Cha Siu/Shao as it had the right texture/bake and seasoning. The only complaints I had were that 1) the sauce on the rice was way too salty, and 2) there were no vegetables that came with the lunchbox! I personally prefer a more balanced meal with low sodium hence why I'm knocking two stars off. Overall, King's is a good place to go to if you're in a rush and need something quick! read more

Came here on the whim and decided to get some roast pork. It was solid, nothing special. This is some that really doesn't care too much for roast pork though. So take that with grain of salt, I'd want to try more of the other things though as I have high hopes read more

Nice Chinese bbq. I got the roast pork, soy sauce chicken, and salty baked chicken. All were freshly cooked, and seasoned just right. Some shops from around the corner have meats which are too salty. They only accept cash though. I came on a Wednesday afternoon and it seemed the food was fresh and the roast pork had crispy skin. I know many have complained about stale food. Perhaps they only roast their meats a couple times a week? At least it was freshly cooked the day I came in. read more

It's my first time getting roast duck from outside of Uwajimaya or restaurants. The inside of the store is small and you will have to take your food elsewhere to enjoy. The joys of takeout. Cash only too. The duck though...Juicy, tasty and just delish. Love love loveit! Just that is worth 4 stars. :D This is a roast duck "lunchbox". It's just meat and rice. The price is the same as an average lunch for me. The presentation and service was a little lackluster, much like other small city stores. The lady who took my order was a little brusque, but I only needed a quick grab and go so it was fine. If you want your sauce separate or no sauce you should tell her because she just poured it directly on my rice without asking. A gentleman cut one of the hanging ducks for me. The cut I got (1/4 maybe?) was slightly bony, but still good meaty pieces. It's a much better deal to buy a whole duck for $21 though. I'd like to try some other places before I come back, but I would come back. read more

Get your cash ready folks because King's is where the Chinese BBQ is at! I have been going here since I was very very young. Going on 20+ years! I love getting the "lunch box" because you get rice and meat and it's only like 8 dollars. The flavor of the roast pork, roast duck, roast chicken and bbq Pork reminds me of when I would visit my relatives in Hong Kong. It's hard to describe the flavor, but my friend who is an executive chef was in awe when I introduced him to King's. Again this business is old fashioned and only accepts cash. So come prepared and hungry! It will all be worth it!!! read more

King's BBQ House is like an old friend for decades. Brightly lighted, simple or perhaps no-deco, King's is a no fuss take-out eatery that's seriously old-school. They offer maybe 10 items on their menu. Roast pork, char-siu, roast duck, soy sauce chicken and others form the basis of their menu. Their food is deliciously attractive with a formula that never needs changing. Take-out lunch boxes with BBQ + rice. Or take-out by the pound or by whole or half duck/chicken and the like. It's simple, inexpensive, and most importantly, delicious. We ordered the roast pork - perfectly seasoned, flavorful, and omg-tender! We also order half a soy sauce chicken - a generously large chicken that is flavorful with melt-in-your-mouth tender bits of meat. Dipped in the sauce they provide, it's soooo yum! Don't expect to eat there. It's meant for take-outs only. You can always eat at the nearby park instead or take-home. During the COVID-19 time, this is the perfect eatery for a quick take-out. read more

Wow this place hasn't changed in years other than the prices. Roasted meats and poultry hang in a window. The interior is stark, small, authentic. The butcher and their white apron great you at the door. They sell by the pound and will chop things up for you at your request, or you can just get the whole piece. The roast pork is *the* item to get. We always get 2 lbs or more of the roast pork to take back home to Portland. read more

They have really good duck but customer service and prep skills are terrible. I came here hoping to pick up duck to bring to a Thanksgiving dinner and noticed a huge line. I figured, 10 min tops. Boy was I wrong. They were basically waiting for each customer to order before cutting the duck even though 99% of the people waiting in line were BUYING DUCK!! At one point the line didnt move for a whole 7 min. The reason...somebody ordered 2 ducks‍. Either the staff are just plain oblivious and dumb or they were just too lazy to ask folks in the line what they planned to ordered so they could get it ready. This bad experience has now shifting to the other places that sell duck in the ID. read more
