    Street Pork Ka Prao
    Tony S.

    Had a very tasty lunch at Royal YUM! The lunch special came w choice of soup or salad. I chose soup which was the right choice. I always thought egg drop soup was good but boring and bland. Not the case here. Very flavorful w a touch of spice! My entree was delicious as well. I would definitely come back to try their pho.

    Kitty-shaped rice!
    Kim D.

    I was very impressed! The location has fun, welcoming decor and a good ampunt of space. Our server was exceptional, very friendly and attentive. We ordered a couple ofappetizers for the table, and we highly recommend the wanton nachos. It sounds odd, but tastes great! I got a tofu dish with peanut sauce and it was very good! Everyone loved what they ordered, which is always nice. I thought that the kitty-shaped rice was a great little touch, so cute! We'll definitely be returning!

    Best Thai food I've had since I've been in Texas! They don't watch the front door very well. Takes a minute before they noticed you walked in, but once seated the service is great.

    Sukiyaki Stir-Fry Noodles
    Mary B.

    Really wanted Thai for dinner and usually order from Thai Square. Finding parking is alway challenging for Thia Square, so decided to order from Royal YUM. With the street Sunset being under construction parking in the business area across might be necessary. Sukiyaki Stir-Fry Noodles with chicken was ordered and it was a delicious dish.

    Garlic shrimp

    Really great food and service. I had garlic shrimp and my husband had Kung Pao chicken. Restaurant was nice and clean and relaxing. Waitress was very polite and on top of everything.

    Doo Dee Tom Yum Noodle Soup

    My wife and I decided to try this place for our anniversary dinner. We really enjoyed the service and the speed of our food was great. Plus the food was amazing at a great price. We came in around four so it wasn't too busy. The place was real nice with calming music.

    Lettuce wrap
    Karina C.

    Great tasting food. The kids and I shared the lettuce wraps, Thai dumplings, orange chicken and Thai fried rice. It was all delicious, especially the lettuce wraps. I am going back soon because it was so good. Service was great too. Very attentive. Only thing I was a little disappointed in is they chill their Cabernet Sauvignon. It's suppose to be served room temp. But that's ok, the food and service is worth going back.

    Good food but way too expensive. They need to lower prices if they want to last here.

    Buffet King at 2251 S Loop 288, Denton, TX 76205…read more More than just your typical Chinese buffet restaurant. So much food options to go over so many choices. Services always good and on point. The lunch special with a drinking and tip is usually under $20 per person so this would be a very good buffet any day of the week.

There was a hibachi station where you could choose meats like thin beef, chicken, and pork, along with veggies, spices, and sauces. It was nice since i wanted to get my protein up without all the oil lol. Now I don't know if the meats are very fresh, but the station was cold so that's good. The hot foods I had were also pretty good and warm for buffet. My favorite was the pan fried dumplings, but again not the best obviously. In regards to the sushi, I didn't even wanna touch the raw nigiri for my own safety; salmon had no visible fat lines, and tuna didn't look appetizing at all, almost grey. I got some pieces of the rolls, unagi, and inari and those were actually better than i expected. The rolls are pretty close to tokyo one in plano, or osaka in addison. The inari was nice and sweet, but the unagi was kind of just getting carried by the sauce lol. Service wasn't the best, got one refill the entire time, and was fasting that day. The place is decently clean and nothing to really complain about there. Overall for a big easy family outing, not bad, but would not eat here again myself

    I wasn't planning to write a review, but this place left such a bad taste in my mouth (pun…read moreintended) that I still get angry thinking about it. In March 2019, my dad and I both became extremely ill after eating here. I woke up at 3 a.m. with a very high fever, vomiting, and diarrhea. I was sick for hours and continued dealing with nausea for nearly five days. We both ended up in the ER, and I required IV fluids and monitoring. It was, without question, the sickest I have ever been. I reported this restaurant to city code, and the health department was there within an hour of my complaint. Below is the report from the health department: "Anonymous, Our inspection of the New China King Buffet did not go well, and the restaurant has been closed until it can come up to basic health standards. In short, the kitchen needs a thorough cleaning, temperature rules were not being obeyed, and practices within the kitchen were not up to modern standards. Again, I am sorry that you and your family became ill, but I do appreciate you taking the time to inform us of the problem. Please let me know if there is anything more that I can provide you. Respectfully, Kevin Cummings | Chief Health Inspector Department of Development Services | Consumer Health Division" What concerns me even more is that the restaurant appeared to reopen almost immediately. I'm not sure how that process works, but it was surprising given the severity of the violations. When I later filed a BBB complaint, the restaurant responded with claims that I showed up the next day to argue with them. That is completely false. I didn't leave my house for a week for being so ill. They also suggested only my dad was affected, which is also untrue--we were both seriously ill. This makes me question whether there were other incidents they may be confusing this with. They even threatened legal action over my review, which I find unreasonable. Customers have every right to share their honest experiences. Based on what happened to us and the pattern of reviews since, I would strongly urge others to be cautious when eating here.
