King Pao chicken.....LOTS of Celery, dried chilis, and carrots.
Mark S.

I have never had an Asian entree with so much celery and carrots...probably 90% of the meal. There was a lot of heat in the sauce but the flavor wasn't great... it was also very thin and watery. I will probably go back, but cut the celery and carrots next time. I would like to give them another chance.

Egg drop soup
Lysette R.

I tried Big Wok after Hot Spots (next door) disappointed me twice in a row with dry and overly battered General tso's chicken. I ordered an egg drop soup and sesame chicken with fried rice. $14 for the entire order. The egg drop soup had great flavor, but the wonton strips tasted stale. There was no crunch. The fried rice is usually good, I've gotten the lunch special several times. The "fried rice" I got with the sesame chicken was very disappointing. I wasn't expecting any meat in the fried rice as I got a meat entree, but it was just some egg and a string or two of onion. Should've just gotten white rice as this is basically what that was and I believe there was an up charge for the fried rice. The sesame chicken is good. The pieces of chicken are smaller and easier to eat; they also aren't overly breaded. There were two random pieces of broccoli in there, which felt unnecessary and odd. I can't speak to the ambiance as I got drive thru, however, from what I was able to see from my car it looks like a normal fast food restaurant. Not the greatest Chinese food I've ever had, but it's better than my recent experiences at Hot Spots.

Service was great but the place is quite filthy…read more.. Food was bad and look like it was left out for a long time. They take the time to refill. Do not recommend... go to the king buffet on 35 in Denton.

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.
