China King — Restaurant in Lafayette

Just went here for the first time in a long time and I couldn't recall why we don't order from here, apparently for a refresher course on that exact topic. Order was wrong with beef and broccoli given instead of beef and mushrooms. Dishes do not come with sides (egg rolls or crab rangoons) like other nearby takeout places. Prices are also slightly more expensive than other nearby places (you also cannot pay online). The minute amount of interaction with staff that I had was fine, but the wall of stink that hits you in the face when you walk in the front door is enough to offset any friendliness you may be met with. It will probably be another 3 years before I accidentally order from this dumpster again. Order from Happy China instead. It's worth the extra...

I was wanting dragon and Phoenix so we saw they had it on their menu. We went to try it out we specifically asked for our appetizers to come before entrees but they came after. My wife's seafood combination was very good with lots of seafood and vegetables. I was very disappointed with my dish as I had to hunt for the shrimp inside a combo of onions and peppers. I went to the cashier and expressed my disappointment and pointed to the picture on the wall which showed lots of shrimp. She said she would have to cook make more shrimp and I added it to my dish and it was much better. Not sure we will return and keep going to our favorites. The place is a little dated and could use a refresh. You can see in the pictures before and after of...

Nice take out food, high quality ingredients. I only really make it there once a month but when I walk in they declare my usual order as a question. "Beef chow mei fun?" It is so good. Definitely try the crab rangoon too. They do great spicy food here too, usually get spicy shredded beef from here to kick open my sinuses if I have a cold.

Update 2025: I still come here really often though my regular order is Dragon and Phoenix. I think they know us by phone number and honestly that's pretty great.

Food is ready really fast after a phone...
