Chilli King Chinese Food — Restaurant in Glendale

First time doing a review – unfortunately, it is not a good one. The first red flag I should’ve heeded was the handwritten notice on their clear partition: “We do not accept food refunds or exchanges” – like even if the food is not cooked properly or not what you ordered? Saw that this was open late, decided to place an online order @ 9:09 PM for a pick up @ 10:15 PM, waited an extra 15 mins for it to come out. Even then the person behind the little counter haphazardly stuffed it in a bag and gave it to me, no utensils or napkins. Inside was super-hot, fans blowing hot air, door open and dining area that looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in a while. The portable AC vents (air intake and blower) and lanterns hanging from the ceiling were so dusty, a dirty storage bin on top of that and the curtain that closes off the kitchen was also dirty from a person going back and forth. The deep freezers you could see below the curtained off area, had splatters of something that was never cleaned and just forgotten about, the tabletops stunk and had a sticky touch to them. The floors had obvious hardwater stains where the plants were stationed. A photo on Google shows the same set up from 2 YEARS AGO just more dust & unclean. Do not be fooled by the fine dining images. As for the food, it was very bland. Ordered H9. Orange chicken w/ pint of fried rice (extra $1.79) and H14. Fried pork chops w/ white rice (extra $1.50). The top of the white rice seemed fresh but as you got to the middle, it was very mushy and cold. The pork chops tasted like freezer burn and the cabbage under the meat was soggy, part of the sliced parts were still cold and not seasoned well. The fried rice was basically white rice doused in soy sauce but didn’t have the mushy components – the orange chicken just wasn’t good, fried chicken skin without any meat. I will not be...

I'm going to start out with this statement...IF it weren't for the fact that I had to wait a half hour BOTH times that I ordered (AFTER placing the order online a half hour prior to that), I would have given them 5 stars. We were visiting the area and got food from them TWICE in that week....it's that good! You can order online, but you can't pay online which makes me think that they don't even start it until you come but still....that was a LONG TIME to wait. Ok....the good part- Their pan fried noodles are FIRE! Chinese is my favorite and I go often and have NEVER had lo mein or as they call it "pan fried noodles" that good! They have such a nice flavor! Not overpowering but definitely delicious! You don't even need soy or any sauce on them. I had the honey sesame chicken which was also VERY delicious! My cousin had the walnut shrimp which she loved but not more than the pan fried noodles so the 2nd time that we ordered she got the spring rolls which she really liked and a large pan fried noodles. I got the honey sesame again and shared the noodles with her. I didn't want to throw away the leftovers so I had it for breakfast the next day! We did upgrade the white rice to fried the 1st time but it wasn't anything special...not bad...just not worth paying for the upgrade. I would DEFINITELY recommend this place for take out. They are open late too which is nice! Just be...

The best PRICE, QUALITY, and SERVICE you’ll find! I rather support local family own business during times like these and in general. Let me say you’ll want to give up every Chinese Food chain to head here.

For the amount of food I got for the price?! It was perfect. I only spent $16 for two people that included soup and egg roll. You got enough food to make you feel full but not overstuff.

The best part about not feeling overstuff is because it’s not greasy or oily Chinese food. We ordered the orange chicken with noodles and the food was beautiful but not greasy like Panda Express or soggy like a Chinese buffet. It just feel healthy for some reason. The taste is fully there because it all home made and family recipes.

Because it locally and family own the service is very very sweet. The one of the owner who took my order over the phone and ranged me out was so friendly and fun. You can tell they’re proud of what they provide and how good it is. The best part overall is they make their own chilli oil!!

I HIGHLY recommend going to business and enjoy a delicious meal. They have doordash, grub hub, and more. DONT DO DOORDASH OR THOSE DELIVERY COMPANIES! It up to the driver to take however long they want and good food like this CANT sit too long before getting bad. So I recommend going in person for your take out because you don’t wanna miss the service and freshness...
