The congee was very good and rich. No complaints about the ingredients. The place was clean and modern, and the seats were very comfortable. That said, we thought it was a bit too expensive. We enjoyed our lunch and are glad we tried this place, but would be hesitant to come back unless we really craved congee again.
I’ve been here a few times now, whenever I’m feeling under the weather or just want something warm and soothing, their congee always hits the spot. There’s something incredibly comforting about a steaming clay pot of fresh seafood congee, especially on a cold day.
The standout dish for me is the seafood congee with crab. The seafood tastes fresh, the broth is rich and flavorful！

Came here for brunch after a friend’s recommendation and really enjoyed it!
The restaurant is clean, comfortable, and the service was great. I love that they offer individual clay pot congee with lots of add-on options. A hot bowl of freshly made congee is perfect for a weekend brunch.

Congee King 活粥王 is a restaurant that offers an authentic Teochew-style seafood congee experience. The congee is the star, with a smooth consistency and rich broth, featuring fresh seafood like dried scallop & shrimp congee, whole roe crab, and scallop, shrimp, and clam congee. The seafood is super fresh, naturally sweet, and made with real ingredients, not overloaded with MSG. The pork rib congee is delicious and very flavorful, while the pork liver congee has no bitterness or gamey taste and is perfectly tender. The menu is well-supported by traditional side dishes, including a flavorful braised poultry, silky tofu options, and fresh, crisp stir-fried greens. The braised dishes are okay, but the congee is definitely the standout. The service can be inconsistent; some guests experienced understaffing, rough bussing, and long waits, while others felt respected by helpful staff. The restaurant can be noisy with cleaning sounds. Overall, it is a solid 4-star destination for the East Bay, seeking traditional textures and clean, balanced flavors in a casual setting.
