BBQ King

Been here twice; once when my normal favourite Asian BBQ & Noodle House on Jones was closed on Friday. The duck was excellent, as was the BBQ sweet pork and Roasted pork. Haven’t tried the other dishes yet. The take out was really good; waitress service was the usual surly service (you get use to this in Chinese restaurants) until they get to know you — which is usually about 4 to 5 visits. I’ll be back but mostly as a second option to our favourite Asian BBQ & Noodle House.

I am on a search to find the best BBQ pork in the city. I start by looking for restaurants with hanging duck and pig because that is usually a good sign of authenticity in my book. I have been to a few places in the Chinatown area and they all taste remarkably similar in terms of this dish and I have not been blown away yet.
BBQ King unfortunately did not blow me away either. I tried the duck and BBQ pork lunch special which is served with a heaping portion of rice and some Chinese broccoli. Overall the meal was fine and the BBQ pork was solid, but it wasn’t the one. It cost less than $ 10 and filled me up so for the price I do recommend.
In the end I am still searching for the best BBQ pork in the city because this was not quite what I’m looking for in terms of quality and authenticity. Just a reminder that the lunch specials end at 3pm and the restaurant is cash only.

My first time today, I liked everything about this place, especially the pork belly. I plan to make this place my regular place for Hong Kong style food

This is my first time to write a review in Unilocal!I like this restaurant! And the food are good and the service is fast and nice! I feel like this is the most traditional Chinese restaurant.

The waiters were very welcoming and didn’t rush us, unlike other Chinese restaurants. Nothing really stood out, but the thousand year egg congee and roasted pork tasted alright. The best part was the price for our meal.

Very authentic Chinese BBQ menu with reasonable prices. I’ve had the Wonton Soup and Singapore Style Rice Noodles. Both were prepared authentically and not changed to accomodate tourists or non-​Chinese tastebuds. This is a much better option than Sam Woo. It’s only a mile or so father west on Flamingo Road and the prices are noticeably less for a very similar menu. My noodles are well over $ 10 at Sam Woo, but only $ 7.50 at BBQ King for the exact same dish. You will save on the tourist markup.

I would give them 2 and a half stars for good sercice. Our first choice was Asian BBQ, unfortunately they were closed for vacation. When we got here around 7pm, place was empty. They had one duck hanging and that duck was dried and tough. They need to defind the word ‘King’. If you want good BBQ in Vegas you need to visit Asian BBQ on Jones Blvd.

Wow, I’m quite impressed with the value and tastiness of the food! Their wonton noodle soup and roast duck are the best I ever had anywhere before… the roast pork is good too. The wonton noodle soup broth has a clean complex flavor profile, the noodle has the perfect texture, and the wonton is sublime. You may want add touch of the chili condiment inside round jar on the table (not sriracha) to the broth to add an addition layer of taste. The roast duck is well marinated, flavorful and duck meat is perfectly cooked. You can tell you are eating duck from the Integrity of the roast duck’s meat texture and innate sweetness. The roast pork is tender as if it’s from a sucking pig and is marinated with just the right amount of spices and seasoning… good crunch on the pork skin. Excellent Cantonese food… The prices are inexpensive and the food is excellent. The restaurant is clean and the service is prompt and courteous. I plan on returning to try everything on their menu.

I had meals in this restaurant quite often, sometimes make a to-​go order as well. I can tell the service is getting better and better every time I visit compare to the first time. However, there’s no doubt when they get traffic, the servers are not able to fill my water or offer another coke. But if you ask for it, they are glad to fill. Also, the food there really worths for the price. Most of the food costs around 6 – 15, and comes a lot.

Used to be the best roasted duck in town but since the owner got changed, the food too got changed. Besides roasted duck was a disappointment, roasted pork was too fat and not crispy. Eggplant and beef chow fun were so oily. I can see the oil was dripping from the eggplant and the chow fun on the plate was shiny. The wonton soup was just ok. The price wasn’t cheap compare to other better Chinese restaurants around.

Put in an Order for a roast pig to TWO DAYS before we needed it. The Person even wrote down the time to pick it up. So the day come to where we go to pick up the hog and they tell us its an hour wait, mind you we gave them an extra fifteen minutes… Got our money back and left them with a pig in the oven. used the cash to go to SAM WOO who saved our family’s dinner!!!
Moral of the story? go to Sam Woo.

Well we stopped in again tonight and the food was terrific. I had salt and pepper fish again and I tried some tripe with a really delicious sauce they give you this is definitely handmade very very tasty .The service seems to just get better the food is really good great for the budget the kids love it and so do I. I think we will become a locals because the price is right and the food is great.

Came in tonight at dinner rush – during Chinese New Year. It was no surprise that this little place was busy. We were seated as soon as one of the wait staff saw us and were brought hot tea. We had to ask for water and cokes are served in the can with a straw and no glass. The food came out relatively quickly: House Special roasted pork, garlic beef, walnut shrimp, fried rice, and steamed rice. Everything was just fine – nothing to shout out loud for, but nothing below mediocre either. The food was not too greasy or salty. Although the pork was somewhat dry, everything was okay. The staff didn’t rush us, but they didn’t refill our water or offer us another soda either.
All in all, the food was good enough to come back another time, especially at the low prices. Only the walnut shrimp portion seemed small. All of the other orders had large portions for the price. It’s a typical Chinatown restaurant and a traditional Chinatown experience complete with ducks hanging at the counter. Don’t expect perfect service. But the food is decent enough at the price to check out. 3.5 stars.

The only thing good at this place is the BBQ Pork. As for the food it comes in two flavors, over seasoned or under seasoned. The service is SLOW and the overall total experience is just blah!!!

Maybe because we had dinner at 9:30pm, hence, the duck pieces were nothing but bones, the skin of the roasted pork was not crispy, and the steamed chicken was not meaty?
But a good restaurant would always be consistent with their food items… therefore, I was utterly disappointed. I was embarrassed that I took my husband here, and was his first time to dine in at this restaurant.
The service was quite decent for a Chinese restaurant though. They served us a pot of tea, and offered free rice if we wanted it. We politely decline the free of charge rice offering.
I will try to convince my hubby to try this restaurant again, for lunch perhaps.

Worst food I’ve ever eaten. The «Crispy Fried Tofu» was anything but. It was soggy, mushy, fell apart and just plain gross. It was barely cooked, or deep fried enough at all. The «HongKong Style Wonton Noodle» soup had very little flavor. The noodles in the soup were a bit hard. The noodle soup also smelled of some sort of chemical, as if it were formaldehyde or something. I also did not receive the steamed rice that I was supposed to get with my order. I ordered my food to go. I don’t live so close so it wasn’t worth me returning back to the store. I ended up throwing it all out. A total waste of $ 17 and some change. I don’t like to post bad reviews much, even when I receive bad service. I tend to focus on the positive, and try to give the benefit of the doubt. However, I couldn’t help but post about my experience and the quality of the food. I’m still trying to get the horrific after taste out of my mouth, just from the little I tasted. I’ve been to many different Chinese and Asian restaurants around town, and I’m not the pickiest of eaters. This place has to be the very worst that I’ve ever come across. I would not recommend it at all.

We came here for dinner with my boyfriend’s family. They come here often and it was my first time. The prices are good for big portions. I came in with an empty stomach and left fully satisfied.
It’s not the nicest place, but for what we ordered it was good. I got walnut shrimp and wonton noodle soup. The shrimp was good and tasty. Crunchy where needed. The broth to the soup however had no taste and the noodles were kinda hard. My boyfriend ordered duck and basically ate the whole thing. He really liked it. It was good but I’ve tasted tastier duck at Sam Woo. The sweet and sour soup was just as named. And the crispy noodles were thin and crispy.
The customer service was good. They were nice and accommodating and continuously cleaning our table off because we did order a lot and it got pretty messy. They were also filling up waters constantly so no problem there.
Their bathrooms were okay. And there was a cart full of dirty dishes by our table, I wasn’t so sure about that. But they did clean it out every so often. Didn’t really bother us but I was just wondering if that was supposed to go there in the first place.
Affordable for the whole family.

We accidentally ate here because we thought it was the Chinese restaurant that my mom ate with her friends. But actually the restaurant was in the back of this restaurant, which the waiter told us their isn’t any Chinese restaurant in the back of this one. Anyways, we decided we are already here and give it a try. My mom ordered the BBQ chicken, roasted duck, wonton soup, and steamed rice. The wonton soup was good with all the vegetables that was inside. After we got done eating that. The waiter gave us the rest of the food that we ordered. The only thing wasn’t satisfying was the BBQ chicken and roasted duck that was served cold. We told the female waitress that and she didn’t hesitate to take our food back and gave us the hot one instead. So the food was good, just next time don’t serve the BBQ cold, I was expecting it would be hot and fresh from the grill.

A friend took me here exclaiming «this place is f ’ n awesome «. Although very good, wouldn’t say «awesome». I had the Kung pao chicken, chow fun, and Chinese broccoli, all were good, but nothing really stood out. I do wish the Kung pao was spicer, but I did ask for it spicy, I assumed it would be.
The place is a hole in the wall in Chinatown (I didn’t even know Vegas had one). Easy parking, very reasonable prices (CASH ONLY). Good eats though.

Great Chinese food that is very authentic and the prices are very reasonable, expect dishes around $ 6 and good sized portions. You get free soup for dinner. Noodles are cooked to perfection, veggie dishes are fresh, char siu is the way it supposed to be. I don’t quite understand the bad reviews. if you expecting something like PF Chang’s, then this is NOT the place to go.
Few things… servers speak little English, so it helps to have someone who speaks Cantonese to come with you to order. Second, it’s not a fancy restaurant, go to Sam Woo for a nicer enviroment but the food is more expensive and not as good. Also, they only take cash.
