" I recently got takeout from China King, and it was a disappointment. The noodles were overcooked, and I couldn't even recognize the shrimp in my dish. The service was acceptable, yet the staff seemed a bit rushed. It felt like I was just another order to them. I won't return after that experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" So nice to find a good Chinese food joint nearby! The portions here are massive; you could easily share a plate. The atmosphere is casual and therein lies its charm. Service was attentive but not overly so, just perfect for a laid-back dining experience. I’ll be returning for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I eat here, I leave satisfied! The crab rangoon is heavenly and pairs perfectly with their sweet and sour sauce. The atmosphere is a bit cramped, which isn't ideal, but it doesn't stop me from enjoying a satisfying meal. Service could vary, but I've had more positives than complaints. Highly recommend for anyone during craving some Asian delights! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, I was very disappointed with my recent order from China King. The food was subpar; the sweet and sour chicken was drowning in sauce, making it nearly inedible. The staff seemed unfazed by my complaints, which added to my frustration. I doubt I'll give them another chance. " (*Curated Review*)

" I ordered from China King last week, and it was a bit of a letdown. The fried rice was bland, and I had high hopes based on what friends had said. The service wasn't terrible, but it was just okay. I don't think I'll be coming back anytime soon unless I hear some early improvements. It's a shame because the portion sizes were generous. " (*Curated Review*)

" I don’t usually enjoy fried rice, but China King's version is fantastic! They really load it up with chicken and veggies, and it has such a nice flavor. I also enjoyed their beef and broccoli that had just the right mix of sauce and veggies. Great experience overall. I feel like they could enhance their service a tad, but ultimately, the food shines! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the worst experience I could imagine at China King. To start, the order was mixed up, and when I finally got the correct dish, it was poorly made! The meats were tough, and the sauces were just bland. Staff weren’t particularly helpful either. I left feeling like I wasted my money. Never again! " (*Curated Review*)
