I ordered food to go. My food was fresh and hot,but very salty. After many years my food has never been salty. Other than that. Customer service was great. And their food is usually delicious.

The food was okay, not as good as it used to be. Unfortunately.
The beer was fantastic, though.
The beer made it worth it.

I absolutely love their garlic noodles! While its definitely heavy with the butter, its comforting, flavorful and delicious. Love the texture of the noodles and how its packed with tons of garlic. I enjoy the salt and pepper wings and the jambalaya fried rice. The crab fries are so delicious and have a nice hint of spice. I've been coming here for years and having their food always leaves me in a happy and satisfied mood.

First time here went about 1pm, no line just a few customers seated. Got shrimp fried rice & lumpia to go & scoop vanilla bean gelato. Rice was ok, could hardly see egg & green onion but lots of rice. Lumpiadoesn't have a lot of filling inside & gelato was just ok.. Friendly staff & not a long wait. Not sure if I'll return

First time at this specific location, I've been to the original location numerous times but for this specific location the food wasn't as good as it is at the OG spot. The salt and pepper fries were sweet and not salty like I would have thought due to the name being salt and pepper fries. I instantly knew it was accent but just a bit too much of it as I had drank more than a couple cups of water while eating the fries and wings. I also had the garlic noodles but to me the garlic wasn't as present as with the original location. I really wanted to give a good review of this location but maybe I ordered the wrong items?

The staff were friendly and the food came out relatively fast considering how it seemed pretty busy for a Sunday but perhaps I'll have to come back to try some of the other items. I'm not knocking Monkey King at all, just this visit had me confused with how the menu items could be different from the original location when they are the second location just with a brewery attached to the adjacent side.

Don't let my review discourage you from visiting this location though, it might've just been busy and it could have just been a honest mistake. If you haven't been to this location and have been to the original spot don't hesitate to try this one out if you enjoy a slightly larger location with the attachment of a brewery next door. I'll have to come back here and try it out another time because they do have good food!

Monkey King At The Brewery is Monkey King's second location. They have a range of Asian fusion cuisine: wings (bone-in or boneless), fries, fried rice, etc.

My wife and I really enjoy their wings, garlic noodles, Crab Fried Rice, and fries. You can add on a side to the wings (e.g. fried egg, Chinese sausage, fries or tots) with an extra cost but it's a good portion.

With the Brewery next door, if you order at Monkey King they'll give you a number and bring your order to you, so you can have good beer and good food.

Their dessert is good too, churros and ice cream or s'mores fries (yes, I said s'mores fries, fries with cocoa powder and marshmallows, the ultimate salty sweet).

We really enjoy Monkey King.

Loaded tots were soggy with dried sausage drenched in a salty sauce. Lumpia was very tasty but over-fried. My friends loved their food, so maybe I caught them on a bad day. The staff was friendly and my friends were the best part of the meal.
