    We are sincerely impressed with the dining room appearance that is well taken care of. The buffet…read morearea is always tastefully presentable with consistent hot fresh food. Friendly service that attends our needs throughout the meal. We enjoy our time here and recommend it to others. To try and never leave hungry.

    This China King is one of those places in Ishpeming that has the right menu on paper but struggles…read morewith consistency in execution. On the food side, I ordered General Tso's chicken with fried rice and an egg roll. The dish itself is definitely standard American-Chinese fare and it is clearly on the menu, but the execution was off. The chicken had a decent initial crisp, but the sauce leaned heavily sweet with very little spice or depth, which made it feel one-dimensional halfway through the meal. The fried rice was plain and under-seasoned, mostly just colored rice with minimal mix-ins. The egg roll was the most reliable part, with a solid crunch, but that was about it. Service was functional but not particularly attentive. The order was correct and came out fairly quickly, but there was no real sense of engagement or quality control during pickup. It felt like a straightforward transaction rather than a tuned-in service experience. The ambiance inside is very basic and dated, more of a utilitarian takeout setup than a comfortable dine-in space. Lighting is bright, seating is simple, and while it is clean enough, it does not feel like a place designed for staying in and eating. It is clearly built for quick pickup and leaving. Overall, this China King falls short in execution. The food is recognizable but not well-balanced, service is minimal, and the atmosphere is strictly functional. It works in a pinch, but it does not deliver a strong enough experience to stand out.

    Hot, fresh, cooked with love. This was a college staple 10 years ago when Aoy and Josh were running…read morethe shop so I figured they'd put the Rice Paddy in good hands after retirement and they did not disappoint. Nang and her husband are absolute gems (she does the cooking, he takes the orders and serves with a smile!). They learned the recipes and techniques from Aoy, the OG, and they still do it just as great. I had the grilled orange chicken, wontons, and hot and sour soup (absolutely to die for, my favorite spicy soup for kicking a cold). The food was piping hot, huge portions, great taste and flavor, and I had a great time learning about the business in its new hands! The building is exactly the same as it's always been--a homey ambiance, small counter for ordering with a few stools for the patiently waiting customers, to-go meal supplies like cutlery and napkins, and local business cards hung by the door promoting the other hard workers in this little Yooper town. Rice Paddy is the gem of Marquette and I have a feeling it always will be. (Pro tip: grab an order of Rice Paddy and head over to the Wooden Nickel for a beverage with your meal or park at Presque Isle for a picnic!)

    Take out only, the owner is a smooth talker. I ordered sweet-and-sour chicken asked for fried rice…read more I was told it was four dollars extra for fried rice because they add vegetables to it. I got it, and it was like white rice and sauce. The sweet-and-sour sauce was so heavy and sweet on it. The chicken had no batter/ breading. The vegetables were soggy. I then ordered a shrimp eggroll what was like eating coleslaw deep fried, nothing like an eggroll I ever ate. Crab wontons, average. All for 27.00 never going back!
