" Honestly, my experience at China King has been a blend of good service and lackluster food. The egg rolls were decent, but the fried rice was plain white rice with yellow coloring. I don't think I’ll order from here again, especially when better options are available in town. " (*Curated Review*)

" Finally, I went in hopes of having a cozy Chinese meal. What I encountered was a bland plate of dark and oily lo mein. The only thing I enjoyed was the service, which was responsive and polite. It’s such a shame the restaurant has so much potential but fails to deliver on food quality. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was very optimistic when I read reviews about China King, but my dinner last night was simply unacceptable. The beef in my dish was slimy and of poor quality. The service was quick, but it doesn’t matter much when the food does not deliver. I won’t be recommending this restaurant to anyone. " (*Curated Review*)

" I usually love Chinese food, but my visit to China King fell short of my expectations. The chicken was rubbery and bland, and the fried rice had no flavor. While the employees were nice, the food simply isn't worth it. I won’t be coming back for seconds. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had very high hopes for China King given its location and some past reviews. However, my experience was quite the opposite. The chow mein I ordered came without any noodles, just a pile of greasy vegetables and slimy beef. The staff were nice enough, but that doesn’t make up for the disappointing food. I won’t be returning any time soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" There are too many instances where the food did not match what I had ordered. The sweet and sour pork was a soggy mess that didn’t taste like sweet and sour, but rather like milk and spices. It definitely was not worth my time or money. I will not return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I won’t be returning to China King after my last experience. The pepper steak I ordered was more pepper than steak, and there was a slim slice of gray meat that was barely edible. I would highly recommend avoiding this place unless you enjoy underwhelming food. " (*Curated Review*)
