I've been to this place several times since it's on the same level as the market I usually go to. The last couple of times were fine, the meat suited my taste. I did feel that the lady at the counter tried to upsell, but I didn't mind since it's part of doing business. If I don’t want something, I simply say no.

However, yesterday’s experience was disappointing. I went in to buy 1 lb of roasted pork. She cut and weighed it, then asked if 1.5 lbs was okay. Since she had already cut it, I agreed, I didn’t mind getting a little extra. But when I checked the receipt, I saw I was charged for 1.79 lbs. I let it go, thinking it was just a slight difference, and figured I had more meat anyway.

Today, when I opened the box, I found a lot of bones hidden underneath. Now, I feel like I was cheated. I’ve been understanding, but this crossed the line. This is the first time I’ve ever left a negative review for a place.

BBQ King is famous in Chinatown and they also have a storefront in 88 Marketplace food court.
The lunch combo comes with a cup of hot soup, help u digest your lunch so you don't really need to order a separate drink
The bbq is a real deal. bbq pork is marinated well, not overly sweet or salty, just right. Crispy pork only have pork belly cut, it was good when it was fresh and hot and crispy. All the layers of skin and meat is well marinated with five spice and etc, but if you take it home, it tastes fatty and the skin turn hard. I wish they have pork rib section so it would be a leaner cut.
My combo has a lot of rice on the bottom but I wish they give me more meat. For $@4 I can't complain too much I guess. It is still good place for Chinese food

Don't eat here. They gave me the wrong order (even though I ordered both verbally and pointed to it on the menu plus the order taker repeated it back to me), made me bring it back, and had to wait a long time for the manager to arrive in order to refund me. I told that while I didn't eat the food they gave me, it was still opened and they should not try to resell it to someone else due to hygiene and sanitary issues. They scoffed at me and did it anyways. Avoid at all costs

Bought a BBQ duck early Saturday morning, and I can tell it is from days ago!

The roast duck is decent. You don’t get a lot of pudding but they had fresh soft tofu pudding which is hard to find these days

Gave me an old portion of roasted pork today. The skin was sloppy and the pork was pack inside the box for hours. Would not come back

I went to buy 1.2lb roast pork belly around 4 or 5pm. When I got home and opened it, I found a lot of ribs with only bones hidden inside. The bones weighed nearly half a pound. Is it possible to cheat customers like this in business? Use bones to fully measure? ? ?

It is located at the second floor food court of 88 Asian supermarket. They got good and authentic Cantonese BBQ pork and duck. There were a few great Asian restaurants. Compared with other restaurants inside this large supermarket, their food tasted mediocre for me and the price was a little higher.

Quick service.
BBQ pork and veggies are nice and tender, but are lacking in flavor. The included sauce and soup are good.

I would have read the reviews before eating there. The food tastes bad and expensive. It seems like he still doesn’t understand Mandarin. I bought more than 20 items, but they didn't give me a pair of chopsticks. They said I could eat them with my hands by giving them paper towels. I wonder if all people in the city are like this?
