The restaurant is spacious so you don't feel crowded in which is another reason why I frequent this place. The servers are polite and know the menu so they can make recommendations.

The rice tasted rancid, I don't know what they tried to pass off as egg rolls and the chicken balls looked like they had been in the deep fryer way too long. My mother threw up before we left the restaurant and everyone felt off the rest of the night. I don't know how this place is still opened????

The food was always fresh tasting and the buffet was always getting restocked as it was going quickly ! Ben is a very nice man and always stops to talk when I'm there... I've tried many Chinese establishments like my local Wong's Restaurant ( now closed as owner retired ) and the same with Ming's in New Glasgow ( owners retired too ), but in my opinion, China King is awesome from the Sweet & Sour Chicken thru the Beef Broccoli, all is flavorful and delicious, and my favorite trinity when I go there is Sweet & Sour Chicken, Honey/Garlic Spareribs and Chicken Fried Rice. I've actually got sick after eating across the way at the Rose Garden Chinese Restaurant in 2013, so my twice experience there was my last one but China King is my salvation when I have a craving for Chinese food !!!!

And, as usual, she was right (don't tell her I told you that though) Big menu with lots of options, with 12 combination plates that are paired deliciously and priced very, very, reasonably. We shared the wontons to start. They were so light and crispy and they come with a big side of sweet and sour sauce; so you won't run out! I order a combination plate and mixed it up a little - I had the honey garlic ribs and the chicken soo guy. The ribs were big and meaty, the soo guy wasn't the best I've ever had, but it was still pretty good. I think take-out is a big thing with them, as there was a huge crowd waiting to pick-up, and the take-out specials on the board were ridiculously good/well priced.

Along with the standard and very affordable (8-10$ less than all the others) Pu-Pu Platter we ordered the following. Spicy Pig Intestines - I think what I tasted was a chou hu paste as the base, omg it was delicious. Green peppers, chopped chilis, onions and the most surprising thing of the night was there were Sichuan peppercorns in it! First time seeing them in a dish in CB. Not only that, they were green peppercorns - the ones that have also a citrus note. Was not spicy, so perfect for average peoples. These were clean intestines no funk or any offal odors. But it was the star of the show. Roast Duck served Peking style was next. Two crispy duck breast on a platter with the usual hoisin sauce and cucumbers and scallions. The skin was crispy and delicious, of course I would also have wanted a leg, but for this price I was very happy. Yang Chow fried rice was next, very light and fragrant with the usual YC fried rice ingredients. And it was a big portion and had some wok hai. I forgot to add char siu chinese sausage, wont forget that next time. For service, we had a waitress, a bit snarky in your true Cape Breton style. Cant wait to visit again, but unfort I live a bit aways or I would be there every week.

The staff are so lovely and were fast in service. The food itself was served hot and fresh. It wasn't overly salty and the peach drink was ice cold, perfect on a hot day. I noticed they have a buffet option on Saturdays too which is super unique. We'd love to visit again if we pass by Sydney in the future!

We also ordered Har Gow which was Delicious -five stars for that and a Wonton Soup. The Wonton Soup was bland. It did not include the obligatory veggies or cabbage and no slice of Roast Pork and the Pork Dumplings were very overcooked and falling apart. Would not order it again.
