I came in on a Friday afternoon specifically to purchase some siopao (asado), taho and black jelly drink, but saw they offer popcorn chicken (spicy) now, so I decided to try it out too. Prices of food is starting to get expensive and portions are shrinking. There wasn’t many people eating here around lunchtime, so it could be due to the prices and small portion size. I was the most disappointed by the popcorn chicken as it was only 9 pieces (McD sized chicken nuggets) of chicken which came in a big container (noodle soup/rice bowl container) which made it look like very small portions. I do like their food, but I minimize eating at a Chow King now due to price and portion size. Personally, I like their siopao and taho, so that is what I mainly come Chow King for now days.
This is a Filipino-Chinese fast food chain known in the Philippines, also available internationally. I've been in this location so many times and ordered all the items in the menu but wasn't able to get pictures, only the recent to-go order I had which is siopao siomai and an iced thai tea.
They have Mami, Soups, Siopao, Siomai, Dim Sum, Rice Bowls, Lauriat Rice Meals, Wontons, Taho, Halo halo, Thai tea and many more!
Good customer service, wait times depend on the time and how many customers are ahead of you, dine in or to-go and delivery available, plenty of dining table and chairs, accepts cards and cash, plenty of parking in the plaza but do not leave valuables in the car.
Ordered delivery first time order. Bundle 1 supposed to have 6 pcs chicken, 6 buchi, 3 rice, 3 drinks. They sent 5 pcs chicken, zero buchi and 5 lumpia that was not ordered. No sauce (paid $0.15 for recommended sauce). Food was inedible. Chicken was deceptively crispy because it was basically dehydrated. Chicken dried out to the point it was like that movie “Survive” about the Brazilian soccer team crashes plane in the snowy Andes Mountains and they have to cannibalize their dead teammates. The chicken was as dried out as the frozen cadavers they had to scrape strips of freeze dried flesh off the bones and gnaw on little strips of dried people. That’s how dry it was. Chicken jerky. Rice was barely warm. Never again.
The beef wonton was disappointing just one bite, and the noodles were gone. The portion size has noticeably decreased, making it feel unsatisfying. Not only that, but the presentation wasn’t appetizing either. For the price, I expected better quality and quantity. Overall, it’s not worth it, and I likely won’t be ordering this again.

To start off, I'm only reviewing their taho dessert offering and nothing else. The reason is, I hardly ever eat fast food.
However, this place serves taho, a quintessentially Filipino dessert, a uniquely delicious sweet treat from the Philippines made with silken tofu and chewy tapioca pearls mixed with a rich brown sugar syrup. It's a classic. I don't know too many places where it's served, but it's a standard item on the menu and I go there just for the taho.
I didn't grow up in the Philippines, but in the five years of childhood living there, it's one of the few things I remember from the motherland, especially visual of the taho man balancing a bar on his shoulder with two large containers of the ingredients while barking in the streets. I suppose it isn't just the treat I remember fondly and crave, but also of a warm cultural reminiscence.
And so, Chowking serves this deliciousness with remarkable consistency in quality as I've had it over the years. I'm grateful to have a go-to place for taho.

I came for sesame balls ( AGAIN !!!!) because they are good here. No there are not good, they are DELICIOUS !!!!!! 10/10 again for the service and the kindness of Kayla (whom I finally ask her name so I can do a shout out). They don't take tips and this is the one restautant that deserves it unlike other places where they berely do anything but they ask for tips ! Last time I added stuff after she rang me and she was nice about it. It is becoming a luxury to be treated with kindness and respect so just for that it's worth the review. Go Vallejo businesses!!!! I am not Filipina but i love and appreciate the food and culture. Salamat po!

The breakfast bangus and longanisa is too hard it seems that they just warm it up and not newly cooked. Very disappointed and dissatisfied.
Good service. Keep up the good work
