China King

The food is very bland and not something I would ever order again. It was not at all fresh and tasted like it was used or sitting out for a while. On top of that to make it all worse, the delivery driver is extremely unfriendly and always make a problem out of delivering

My go to for Chinese delivery. Yes, it is not a fancy Chinese restaurant. Yes, you are not getting amazing quality. However, for the price and a graduate student budget, the quality and portions are excellent!!! I usually order the general tso combo (comes with an egg roll and pork fried rice) and a crab rangoon appetizer to split with the other people I’m ordering with. I’ve never had a bad experience yet and I’ve ordered more than I’d like to say. I like that they also give you some broccoli with the general tso. I usually have enough food that I have lunch for the next two days. For $ 8, it’s the best deal around. Also, I picked up the food on a few occasions and have always found the staff to be friendly, a rare thing for a lot of pick up places I’ve been to.

I chose this on grub hub based solely on the Unilocal reviews. All I can say is… Disappointed. I ordered the dragon and Phoenix. The shrimp was small, Insignificant, and smothered in onions and a bland sauce. The chicken on the other hand was overly battered and over cooked. The sauce they drowned it in couldn’t save the dryness they created by neglecting the sad bird. The same goes for the teriyaki chicken skewers I ordered. Needless to say I will not be a returning customer.

We ordered General Tso chicken, special won ton soup and boneless rib dinner. Food was very bland, the rice didn’t even look like Chinese rice. First and last order there.

I ordered the hibachi vegetables with tofu and my husband hibachi steak. I got mine with noodles and he had rice. We also got various condiments. It was almost as good as the fancy hibachi place we go to in Southington and it was 20 dollars including 2 drinks and the tofu vegetable soup which was great. We ate in because we were starving.

Chicken teriyaki was excellent. Thin-​sliced chicken and a nice bunch of broccoli, served with rice. Will definitely order from them again. I would describe them as Chinese with healthy options, and not overly salty.

Better than average food, great price especially for a college student budget. Delivery is fairly quick driver is very polite. All in all a pleasent experience

The food was so cheap the lady who works there was very nice, my lunch was $ 5.10 but I only brought in $ 5 cash and I was going to go back to my car to get her 10 more cents but she said don’t worry about it. My lunch was so cheap and I had the chicken low mien omg I was not expecting my $ 5 lunch to be this delish. Fried rice was super tasty and not greasy like other Chinese places. If you are a broke student like me trying to eat lunch during the mist of studying at the uconn law school library, this is the place to go! You bet I will be going back like very often!

Just an average Chinese take out place. It’s cheaper than some of the others close by, but that is reflected in the quality. Try another place first.

This place used to be much better. I heard they changed ownership and the former owners opened a place in West Hartford. There are so many Chinese places that this one isn’t even on my radar.

I’ve ordered from here every time I’m in town. I grew up in Hartford and have always ordered from China King. I’ve tried to eat other places but keep coming back here for delivery. They have great customer service skills and their drivers are always friendly. Definitely a high recommendation if you are looking for a place that will actually deliver to hartford and like great food.

The best hole-​in-​the-​wall Chinese joint in the area, and there are a few.
Make no mistake, you will NOT be dining in. I think it has two tables, and at least one will be full of the staff’s children. Even if you could sit, the cramped quarters, loud noise, and oft-​terrifying locals will not encourage a long stay. Get it to go, or deliver.
That said, the food is surprisingly good, given the relatively low prices. Their kung pao chicken is better than a lot of sit-​down places, and they use quality rice. I’ve tried about half a dozen of their entrees and they ranged from ‘decent’ to ‘really good.’ Considering the cheap prices and lightning service, I’ll bump it up to four stars. The woman that mans the phone/​register couldn’t be nicer, too.

They get three stars, still, I think «Meh» describes the whole experience.
Though it’s hard to argue when $ 7 gets you an eggroll, a boatload of fried rice, and some pretty good roast pork with broccoli in brown sauce. Big props for the fried rice being the color one would expect after frying rice, as opposed to that atomic yellow garbage that some places give you.
The food came out really quickly too, which was nice; I was in a bit of a rush. Just know that this is strictly a takeout place; they literally have one table for customers, and some little kids (I presume the owner’s children) were sitting at it frying their brains with their Nintendo DSes.
Convenient, Quick, Cheap. Can’t ask for much more from a hole in the wall like this.
