Stay away from this place. Chicken was with a weird flavor, not good at all. Rice normally has shrimp and didn’t this time, place smell like humidity.

The food is every good egg roll crispy and crunchy, but the customer service was one of the worst I've ever seen from a Chinese restaurant in my entire 30 years of living. fYI the lunch specials does not come with and egg roll or pork fried rice 🤨

They always burn my rib tips! The lady always have an attitude and it crazy certain items they only accept cash! And it takes longer than 10 minutes for your food.

It’s trash! Food, Customer Service and Atmosphere!!!!!!!!

And on top of that they charge for hot sauce.

Quirky peeps and delicious food. I love this place! 30 Years later,…I still love the food, I love the attention to the food….They make it like a Subaru: with love.

Super fresh, very tasty food. Service is pretty good, staff is very attentive and gets my order right 100% of the time.

Americanized Chinese food has a special place for me here. I especially love the veg fried rice; it’s the best I’ve had, period. Owners have personality: really amazing personality.

That “Seinfeld” episode, ummm… which one? Oh you know the one… Soup is good food! I love a NYC guy who “suffers for his food.”

Same attention lives here with this local, American restaurant owned by a family that has run this same place for at least 30 years. Thank you China King on Hillandale Road!

It’s rather unfortunate but I would not recommend this place. I would have given them no start if I could. The lady and her son are rude and disrespectful. The food was good but the service just leaves a bad taste

Yes lady in front is extremely rude and food doesn’t add up to the amount of disrespect.. I went for convenience but won’t go again

Let’s just say the price they charge for food it should definitely taste better. Especially with the attitude on the side by the woman in the front taking orders. I’m from New York and the attitude is extremely aggressive. I ordered Chicken wings with house special fried rice. And added a chicken wing because the original order only came with 3. I also got a shrimp egg roll plus a can soda total $20 dollars.
Rice: extremely soft like over cooked no flavor but the best thing on the plate if you add lots of hot sauce and duck sauce it was like rice mashed potatoes. The meat and shrimp in the rice undercooked.
Chickens: horrible soggy and not cooked all the way. Example its like they cook it until it got a little crispy but forgot the inside needs to be cooked. Not fresh at all. And being that they charge 50 cent per wing if you use your card because as per their sign there is a shortage of wings you would think that the wings are top tier. So disappointed.
Shrimp egg roll. Was a nice size but only had 2 shrimp and a lot of cabbage. But the rice was full of shrimps that’s a plus.

The restaurant is clean. But maybe they need more hands on deck because the food is not it.
I advise you to try your food before you leave.

Ordered the Szechuan beef and was cooked perfectly but suffered from a severe lack of seasoning and heat level was a one if that. Not the norm so will take this as a one off and hope it's not a trend.

Dietary restrictions: Pretty good at customizing your food if you tell them in advance about any restrictions you have.

Wheelchair accessibility: Like most places these days they have handicap parking and you can eat comfortably at the tables.

We've been going here since they opened and the food has always been delicious. Best Chinese food in Durham. I think some of these reviews are for a different restaurant as I have never experienced rude service and they don't have a drive thru. I hope this place stays open for a very long time.

The best Chinese food in this city. The egg rolls are delicious. The lobby is small and hot. The food is well worth it . Good service, too.

I ordered 2 shrimp egg rolls and there were no shrimp in the egg rolls. When I go back I give her the egg roll and she put the egg roll in the basket and get another one out and show me that there are two 2 shrimp in the egg roll. First of all if I order shrimp egg rolls there should be more than 2 shrimp and second why did you not look at the one I brought back. Then you look at me like I'm lying. My Family will never eat here again. Because this is the second time I have had an incident there. Terrible restaurant
