Chinese Cuisine
The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.
Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.
There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.

Went here for my daughters bday dinner. Got there around 4pm and we were the only people there, which was fine, but you could tell the food was left over from lunch... not very appealing and fresh looking. Some of the food wasnt very warm either. I probably wont go back or refer this place to friends.

Had it delivered. They delivered the wrong thing then offered to send me a new order in 30-45 minutes. I asked for a refund and they said they couldn't do it on a credit card. Will never go again.

I wanted pizza...she wanted Chinese. Since she's my favorite person, she won. My girl and I went to China King buffet for dinner the other night. She had never been, and I hadn't been in a while. We walked in and saw a handful of friendly faces working. We were seated by a nice woman who took our drink order. We walked the buffet before we started grabbing, and the selection was better than I remember. There was plenty to choose from, and the quality was surprisingly nice. I am a buffet fanatic, and I have lots to say about this one. 1. The crab rangoon are the best from a buffet I have ever had...ever! 2. The pot stickers are better than most, even better than PF Changs. 3. The cheesy crab bake adds celery and onions, that was delightful. 4. Their seafood cake is delicious. 5. The "traditional american" Chinese dishes are above average. 6. My drink was never less than half empty. The only complaint I have is the fried noodles tasted very bland and the stuffed mushrooms left something to be desired. Now for the best part! The total bill for two people and one soda...$18!!! That comes out to be about $8 a person for the buffet! That's amazing for what we ate. This place is definitely recommended and will be revisited.

Had the sweet and sour chicken. Chicken was way over cooked and dry, and the sauce tasted like there was vinegar in it - not something I've ever experienced before. Egg roll was all cabbage and no pork. Serving portion was huge (too much for a completely empty stomach), but the food wasn't worth the effort of asking for a box. Skip this place and go elsewhere.

Love this place! Food is always good and hot. Crab Rangoon is amazing! Right at $20 for two buffets and drinks, can't beat it! The owners are also super nice people.

Food is good if getting fresh but lunch food left way too long at buffet and have same foods day after day with no change up. If eat there only every once on awhile thats fine but eating there regularly becomes boring with menu never changing at the buffet. But food is delicious!

Great food, however was told that delivery would be 30-45 minutes, however it was delivered in under 25 minutes & this was a major inconvenience as I was balls deep in my wife at the time.

Tried 'China King' about 5 years ago. It was terrible. Food was cold and generally poor quality. Decided to give it a try again last week but play it safe with something hard to screw up- chicken fried rice. Again.... Terrible. Rice was greasy, no vegetables with the exception of a few stray onions, very little chicken (that was mostly fat). HOW DO YOU SCREW UP CHICKEN FRIED RICE THIS BAD?
(1)John H.
I had the sesame chicken combination with fried rice and egg roll. I also had an iced tea. The chicken seemed odd. Like it had been sitting for a long time. The breading was mushy. The fried rice was ok. The egg roll was very heavy on the cabbage. The iced tea was very watery, or made weak. This will not be a restaurant I will most likely visit again. (I didn't even take leftovers.)
(2)Kara S.
Gross. I don't see how people actually think this is food. The rice tasted like it had freezer burn. Nasty looking food in all the trays too

Great under $7 large & varied lunch buffet made this not the normal China King. When a friend said we were going to China King I really thought he was kidding me. He wanted me to review a chain Chinese place! Maybe this is just a franchise of individually owned restaurants because this one is special. As soon as we arrived we were greeted by three people at once and questioned "how many?" by all. The place looked well decorated and clean. This one location is special as far as having three full buffet bars and a hand scope ice-cream cooler. More than traditional food was on the buffet like stuffed mushrooms and a seafood roll. Plus some sushi (cooked & veggie rolls), chicken tenders, and a fruit and salad bar for choices. While I did not try the sushi rolls, having the Wasabi (added to crab rangoon) and ginger made the rest of the lunch special. I liked having just a spoonful of good quality and tasting various dishes. I also liked the waiter that kept answering our "thank you" with "thank you". This is a buffet so not all dishes were fresh from the wok, but I have to give this place an A-OK. I understand why my friend and his colleges are fans. I will return and may end up giving the buffet 4 stars just on value and selection.

Nothing in this place was good, horrible flavors and the chicken in everything was the fattiest I've ever seen. Maybe if they bought mediocre quality food people like me would come back.

Pretty disappointing lunch today. I am a big fan of hot and sour soup...but theirs was tasteless. In fact, most of the dishes lacked depth of flavor. I tried many of the dishes in very small portions to find what was the best. Well, nothing stood out. I would not return to this establishment.

We live in the neighborhood and have frequented China King many times. I came around to a three star recommendation by splitting the difference between an above average regular menu and a below average buffet. First, the regular menu. There are a few dishes at CK that I really like. The Chic/Pork/etc in Garlic Sauce, Mu Shu, Kung Pao, Beef & Scallops, and Dragon & Phoenix (it goes by a different name at CK, but it's on the house specialties menu) are all above average. Never had anything I was really displeased with... The Hot & Sour soup is also above average. But the buffet... Definitely below average. No Mongolian BBQ station (major bummer for me because I like my veggies and they're, well, pretty sparse and limp on the buffet tables). Another thing that really turns me off is that they use won ton wrappers for the pot stickers, a really disturbing trend in too many Chinese places. They must think we Americans don't know the difference. If you're a buffet, you really have to have traffic to keep the food semi-fresh and CK just doesn't have enough butts-in-seats to make that happen. Bottom line, order off the menu.

I wasn't super thrilled with this place...maybe I've been jaded by the amazingness that is Emperor's Palace Buffet in Chesterfield or something because coming here wasn't anything special. But then again, the reason why I ended up at China King was due to my boyfriend wanting to meet up with some old friends. He used to live in the area and apparently frequented China King quite often so it was more for nostalgia's sake. The food isn't bad by any means but I felt like was "wasting" my calories there, if that makes any sense at all. They do have pretty good hot tea though, randomly enough. Pretty much any seafood dish at the buffet was a hit for me, as well as the general tso's chicken. The egg drop soup tasted nasty as all get-out, and the fried rice wasn't anything to write home about. I took a bite out of something fried that had cream cheese in it, and it was....gross, to put it bluntly. The "sushi" they had there (at a Chinese place?) was balls-to-the-wall dried out. Avoid that, haha. Also, oddly enough, they have a pretty decent selection of ice cream. I think there were about 7 different flavors or so in the freezer? Buffets make me paranoid because I have no idea who has touched what, or how long the food has been sitting out for, but everything looked pretty fresh here, just nothing special. Bottom line...if you're hungry, strapped for cash, and love salty Chinese food without the wait, go to China King. I haven't tried their delivery so I can't attest to that.

We used to order from them on a regular bases, its right down the street. In the past year something has happened. Orders are always wrong food is old, and they always charge us for stuff we didn't get. Then they send the receipt to you in Chinese , so we cant read it. Last night I begged to please make sure our order was right. It came an hour and a half later . It smelled awful. The rice was so hard we had to throw it away. Some of the order was missing, when I called to inquire about this. She told me that if my order would have been right it would have cost me $2.00 more. I STILL DONT KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS. I just told them we cant do business with them anymore and hung up the phone. SO DONT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY.

So far the best Chinese delivery I've had since arriving in Missouri. Great hot & sour soup. Flavorful food arrived fast and hot. My new favorite. We ordered pretty safe next time I'll branch out to more exotic dishes.
