Our family love kings wok express. Their food is usually hot and fresh throughout the whole day even when they're about to close especially if they're busy or on the weekends. They keep adding fresh food. Other places you can tell the food has been sitting under the hot labor for a while, but at kings wok express I never had that problem only once, but it was late. Also if they run out they'll make you a new one. Most of their dishes are good. It can get pricey though if you add a lot since it's by the pound. And sometimes if you don't speak up they pack that $hit! Their drinks are pretty good too and I like how they don't use powder for their thai tea. Ambiance is pretty chill and quiet just people talking. Oh they also have a Mongolian noodle thing where you choose your noodle, meat, and veggies and they cook it for you. I still haven't tried that yet though. read more

Their food is fcking delicious you can taste the flavors. It's a clean environment. The service was great. They are also open on Christmas which is great when you don't feel like cooking. Their prices are pretty good. I got 2 plates and drinks for about $30 bucks which is great cause normally it's like $40 to $50 for 2 people. The place is kind of like " Genghis khan mongolian bbq" there's an option for you to do it yourself or have someone else do it for you. Also whoever is complaining about not communicating with the woman on the register you just don't know how to properly order. read more

Compared to other fast Chinese food places I would rate King's Wok Express with four stars, but compared to most Chinese restaurants it's more average, probably just a three star experience. There are three basic food areas. Normal combination plates, a Mongolian bbq, and smoothie drinks. There are the classic fast-food Chinese items. From several visits there, the best item I've had is the Kung Pao Chicken. Personally, I didn't care for the Mayo Shrimp, shrimp mixed with pineapple and mayonnaise, but someone else I was eating with really liked it. For the Mongolian Wok experience, enter the items you want on a clipboard, and someone from the restaurant will select the items from the food counter at the side of the restaurant. I tried this one time and the result was rather lackluster, and I've not tried it again. Service has usually been good, though I did once have communication difficulties with one person, and another time someone forgot my smoothie order and had to be reminded. read more

Went here again yesterday for the second time and I gotta say it didn't hit :(. They're fried rice could use some work. It taste like it's not finished like it needs to be cooked a little more. I like my rice soft not hard. read more

Hands down some of the best fast food Chinese food we've had in a long time. The folks there are very helpful. Even allowed me to try a sample of new item they had. Love the fact that they were very transparent with all the foods and container sizes. Super clean ambiance and fresh food! I picked up food for a gathering and the girls were so nice. The food was made fresh and I got home and the food was still piping hot! Absolutely delicious and reasonably priced. Can't go wrong with that. read more

I love fake Chinese food. My favorite place was King Wok in Altadena but that one closed down during the pandemic so I thought I'd give this a try. The food was very mediocre. Good portion for the price though. Beef + Broc: 6/10 Orange Chik: 8/10 Not bad, I'd get this again Shrimp: 4/10 No thanks, it's mostly dusty tasting outer batter. Pineapple and sauce is sweet and tasty. Just the shrimp and batter sucks. Fried rice: 7/10 Not bad. Not good. Chow Mein: 5/10 Was looking forward to this the most, but it was the most disappointing. No taste or seasoning. Just tastes like straight boiled pasta. (That's right no flavor) read more

Was hoping to find a Mongolian spot. This place isn't it. It's not self serve, you check off what you want on a laminated sheet and they grab them for you. I didn't really get a decent amount of the items I pick. My order is pretty simple. Beef with pineapple, mushroom, broccoli, carrots with noddles. I got a little bit of food for $13.99. I did see a line for the Chinese food and that one costs by weight. So might try that next time. read more

Have you ever wanted to try more then just the 2 sides most Chinese food places give you when you order a combo plate. Well you hit the jackpot! This place lets you order your food and pay by the pound. What does that mean exactly that means if you want a bite of orange chicken, beef broccoli, bbq pork, black pepper chicken you can choose as much or little as u want and have the ultimate fast food Chinese experience. I recommend you give this place a try. The shrimp with pineapple dish was maybe one of the best thing I have ever had from a Chinese restaurant. read more

Just 30 minutes ago...... I phone ordered a chow fun tray and asked if they make that. The Chinese lady says yes. I ask her it's chow fun noodles right? The wide flat ones? She answers yes. After pricing and sizing I order a medium tray. I go to pick it up, take it to the party I was attending, take the foil off the pan and it's glass noodles. I call the restaurant and that same Chinese lady tries to tell me that I ordered glass noodles. I said no chow fun. Then she changes her answers to glass noodles and chow fun is the same. It's not. I'm not even Chinese and I know this. She's Chinese but not Chinese. read more

I really like this Chinese buffet/Mongolian BBQ restaurant a lot. The food is consistently very fresh and tasty, prices are good and the staff is very friendly and helpful. It recently became my go-to for a healthy and affordable meal near home. It's on the NE corner of Carson St. & Western Ave., situated on the east side of a modest strip mall there (where mall parking can be tricky, but street parking is also free). I'm not an expert on Asian foods, but in my life experience this place covers all the standard Chinese fare well, and the Mongolian-style cooked-to-order option is fun. Either way, it seems both healthy and appetizing. I wrote this review 8 months ago, and it's just as good today. While the pandemic has impacted the way the buffet is served, Mongolian BBQ is basically the same. More importantly, the food is very much as it was: fresh and yummy. I'm on my way there again soon. read more

Really good cheap, fast, Chinese food! So far I've had the Orange Chicken General Tso, and Mongolian Beef, all excellent!

I've passed by this place many times, but today I decided to give it a try and it was pretty good. When I arrived they were bringing out hot fresh food, so we got our food hot and fresh. I enjoyed everything we ordered and I will be back. read more

My husband was working in this area and saw a long line for King's Wok so he assumed the food would be good. He ordered chow mein, general tso's chicken, orange chicken, fried chicken and wontons. Going up to the register, he did not realize they charge $6 per pound. They literally weigh your food. Chow mein - 5/5. Big size noodles with flavor. General Tso's Chicken - 5/5. Big size, great flavor. Orange Chicken - 1/5. Big size but flavorless. Fried Chicken - 3/5. Great crunch, needs more flavor. I mainly eat Chinese food for the orange chicken and fried chicken. For a place to have flavorless orange chicken is a big no for me on top of charging per pound when there are other establishments who over pack your containers, charge only $8 and their food is always on point. read more

I like expensive fine dining but sometimes you need that cheap grub. Kings Wok Express is the first I've seen to do self serve for Chinese fast food. Concept: I'm gonna be flat out honest. I REALLY like the idea of self serve and paying by the pound. I get to try everything and get full for under 7 bucks. Food: Is it the best? No. This is Chinese FAST FOOD. People who expect quality and complain are ignorant. For what you're paying it's totally worth it. I would say it's a little above average. They have a variety of options to choose from. Also their orange chicken staple has very little tang. This is different from most places such as Panda Express which is extremely tangy. I dig the nice change. Dining Room: White stone tables and sturdy cushioned wooden chairs. It's actually... CLEAN. At least it was when I came in which automatically makes it better than the average Chinese fast food joint. Also their song choices cater to American audiences. Lots of covers of mid 2010s pop songs. Service: Pretty standard. They get the job done. Overall: I would totally come back again. 10/10 would grub again. (; read more

Good is good but to day the older lady was not paying attention and messed up my order and couldn't focus on what I was say

Tbh i don't ever even do ratings but this food was so far below average that i had to. Easily the worst Chinese food I've had ever. Do not waste your time here. I got orange chicken, fried rice, & beef & broccoli. The only thing that wasn't bad was the broccoli, it was ok. The orange chicken was soggy, like the breading was soggy & the rice was just plain bad & hard. The atmosphere is not friendly, customer service was meh, that alone already gave me the feeling that it wasn't gonna be all that great. i would say the best part was the service was fast but even then it just wasn't comforting, didn't seem like it mattered to them whether i was satisfied w the transaction or not as long as i paid. read more

This restaurant is affordable and the food is good. It is a ready made Chinese carry out or dine in. I've been coming here since it changed owners and it has definitely improved. The people who work here are very hard working and clean. They have always been courteous and helpful. They offer many choices. Great orange chicken, terriaki chicken, and the honey shrimp is really good! The plates are priced by the pound and for rice, noodles, and two entree's it's about $10.00 and it's a large amount of food. It could easily feed 2 people. This restaurant is kept clean and has a Grade A Health Dept. sign in the front window. Lastly, they have a clean and working restroom for their customers. Two thumbs up! read more

Due to the Covid-19 Guidelines, they no longer allow us to scoope food which it understandable. However they still sell food per lbs. When I order 2 servings, the lady put a lot of food and also teriyaki saurce that resulted $21! I never paid more than $10 for just a Chinese wok in my life. They should change it to the same as other wok. read more

New, different and affordable are the first three things that come to mind when I think of the newly opened King's Wok Express. This place was formerly a Hong Kong Express and is now under new ownership. It's not your typical Chinese takeout place either. It's all "self service." They have a array of Chinese food as well as Mongolian Wok items. You get the container and fill it up with the food items you want. They then weigh your food items and you pay. It is $3.69 per pound. It's like Yogurtland but Chinese takeout style I thought the concept was pretty unique and a pretty good deal. They have all the typical Chinese take out dishes like orange chicken, kung pao chicken, mapo tofu, beef with broccoli, eggplant with garlic sauce and green beans. It's nice to be able to mix and match. On my first visit here I got to try a little bit of each of the following: the teriyaki chicken, orange chicken, spicy chicken and green beans and mushrooms. I thought every thing was good in flavor. The green beans were nice and crispy. The spicy chicken definitely had a kick to it. Aside from making your own combos, they have appetizers that you can purchase. The appetizer prices are amazing. You can get a fried chicken stick for 65 cents and egg rolls for 65 cents! This is a great deal! Speaking of great deals, the best deal that I saw here was for their slushies, smoothies and drinks. Slushies are $1.99 and smoothies are $2.49. You can add 50 cents for boba or rainbow jelly. Thai tea with boba, thai tea, ice coffee and ice mocha are all also $1.99. I got to try their passion fruit slushie with boba and it was so refreshing! This is going to be one of my go to places for boba from now on. $2.50 for a slushies with boba can't be beat! I really like this new place and am looking forward to getting more Chinese take out and boba drinks from here in the future. read more
