China King Restaurant — Restaurant in Virginia

Im giving 1 star because of a nice girl that is taking orders some times ! ( not the one that took my order this time) I called for pick up and order the samething I always do, ( 5 different dishes ) I picked up my order and after more than an hr when I got home I realized that I had one dish double and one missing !! I called and this nice girl answered the phone and I explained what happened, I told her that I just wanted to point this out so that it doesn't happen to other customers , and I live far away so I wasn't going to go back with all the food to the restaurant , I always order here cus is close to my work, she was very professional and understandable , and she said let me have you talk to the manager To see how we can make it up for our mistake ! I never expected the manager to be so rude , The moment she picked up the phone you can hear her tone so rude and very unpolite ! We kept going in circles talking about the same thing and not going anywhere it was unbelievable !! I told her that the other girl was better than her !! Not going back to this place !! You just lost a regular costumer ! I hope you are happy...

My family and I have been coming here since originally opened so needless to say, I feel qualified to review China King. This has never been “the best Chinese food in town” type of place but has always been consistent. After moving away from the area and recently visiting, I thought I’d get my usual Chinese comfort food. I placed my order of chicken and vegetables for pick-up via phone and was SHOCKED when she said my order would be ready in 5 minutes. Although I can appreciate the low wait time, that tells me the food is not made fresh- disappointing. From entering the store, I immediately noticed their online menu prices are different than in-store. The online menu needs to be updated as the prices are listed cheaper (about $1 or so cheaper). I was pleased with the portion sizes. It is a consistent theme that the food lacked flavor. The fried rice was just white rice with soy sauce squeezed on top and most of the vegetables were clearly canned. After tip, I spent a little over $10. Will I come back here? Maybe. I am a loyal customer but did not enjoy the quality of food...

This place used to be great in the past but over time quality and, what is more important, consistency of food kept declining. Today's order of "Shredded pork in garlic sauce" (their regular item #42) was probably the last drop in my latest attempts to order food from them. The end result of my order was, what appeared to be chicken (instead of pork) in no sauce at all and was absolutely unseasoned and teste-less while it is marked as "Hot & Spicy" menu item. There was zero spiciness or even taste to the dish I've got from them today. Total and final disappointment at the quality and consistency of the food here. There are better Asian food places around but I just kept giving them another chance after two previous sad and taste-less orders at China King. Not going back...
