I ordered the Beef wonton with noodles and 3 Siomais, with a raspberry ice tea. Food is delicious and I ate there before noon, Sunday, as the customers started coming in by noon time. Ordering was easy, friendly employees, lots of parking, not a lot of tables and seats inside, you could buy frozen Siomais or baos to take home, and you need a code number to punch in if you need to use the restroom there.

Noodles was good and siopao, but the siomai ( pork dumplings) have hard fillers, not real pork meat. Do not order siomai tasted bad and bad quality . Taho was good, too, but to costly $6.00 per order.Photo shown below was the hard fillers from one of my pork siomai.

Went here just for Halo Halo. Currently its $13 & something for 2 of them, that includes tax. Their Halo Halo is one of the best tasting, in my opinion. Very sweet. Wasnt too crowded there today (Monday around lunchtime). Large menu. They have siapao and lots of other tempting menu options. We plan to come back sometime for lunch or dinner!

Asian cuisine fast food style comparable to Jolly Bee. Very good! I recommend the fried chicken, Siopao, fried tofu, beef wonton soup, and the Taho!The service is usually friendly and quick but today she was a bit cold. Having a bad day I guess.This place is a favorite in our family. We go to Chow King about once a month.

Wanted some halo halo, found this place. Never heard of them before. Was surprised it a Philippino like fast food. They got so much options. I was already full, Will return to try their food. The halo halo was good as expected.

Takes me back to my childhood forsure!Seriously obsessed with the siopaos here. I love the asado but the bola-bola ones are my absolute favorite. I havent had their halo-halo in awhile but I loved it! I didnt know they had boba in it now so that was a lovely surprise. My mom insisted I tried the fried siomai and Im glad I did! I love that its crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Last but not least, get the buchi! if youre a red bean fan, then its a real treat.They have a sign that says theyre understaffed so service isnt fast, just keep that in mind. Theyre more mom & pop and less fast food but their service is great and everyone is really nice.

OG Filipino Chinese restaurant. I always come here for the Taho and the Steam Buns also known as Siopao in the Philippines. They also have a good selection of lunch and breakfast items. Its a must visit if you are in the area.

Used to love their asado siopao, good value for price. But I went last week and was surprised to find an increase of almost a dollar and my dad complaied that it was not nearly as before. I know the price of meat increased but this is a little ridiculous.Not coming back. There are comparable Chinese dimsum restaurants in and around the city that i can go to.

I add extra miles to route just to try the new boba and their amazing breakfast. The customer service is outstanding.

Have come to this location several times and they don’t have Bangus Longanisa breakfast meal.They have in the menu & they don’t seem to care at all. Very disappointed since we come here often don’t think I’ll be coming here no more.Another day I order food to go, and the cashier Sandy was not paying attention to my order, she got the order wrong then got upset when I told her that the order was wrong. I had to pay more for the correct order then when she gave me the order I asked her for vinaigrette she gave two then I asked for more and she got more upset. I told her thank you and no reply at all. Very disappointed cause I go there often and buy $55 every time.🤨

Good Day, just like to inform the vegetable like cabbage in the soup is so hard to chew, what if Seniors will eat that kind of veggie, pls don’t include the Mid-part of a leaf of cabbage, ever since we really loved your soups even when we’re in the Phil’s.,it’s the first time we ate that kind of hard part of cabbage🙁even my Brother really loves your soups, 2x month-every month when he visit West CovinaThanks much for your consideration and More Power

New employees R nice and efficient. I order the same thing that I like and their best dishes. Canton Noodles, Siomai, 6 pack Siopao. I waited 15 mins for my order to be done. The prices are fair to the quantity of the food and taste.

If you havent ate at chowking have you really lived? I highly suggest the fried chicken, orange chicken, asodo siaopao, pancit canton, they also have amazing soups and the garlic rice is absolutely amazing. Chowking is life💖🤌

I do like Chowking, even if my cousin told me its not Grade A.I would always order siomai, tofu and wanton soup.Today I went there to get some food after coming from Toto Cebu Buchon.I ordered:1.Beef Wanton2. Tofu3. 2 extra riceThe order took so long. The lady in white was waiting for her food and she left upset, saying something about not having chilly sauce for her siomai.Me I waited and it was okay.I kept hearing the small lady and the Lola saying fried tofu na lng Ang kulang, even the male supervisor na pinagpapawisan was also saying Ang fried tofu na Lang.I was kinda infront of the counter.After all the wait, I saw one lady passed by and she quickly handed the small box to the other lady who put it in the plastic bag when was handed to me.When I got in the car, I only ate the beef wanton, it doesnt take good as the wanton noodles, honestly. But had no choice. I didnt touch the tofu.When I arrived home which is a 80mile drive, I tried to drink the beef soup from the other container and opened the small box, to my surprise it wasnt tofu but a buchi.I leave so far from West Covina and not getting what I really longed to eat can be really upsetting knowing all the waitI could remember the ladies crew on the side near the restroom saying, Dumaan man lng, Hindi man lng kami nakatikim. I think they were not focused with the tasks this morning.However I still like Chowking, but a job is a job no matter what locked down or Covid is going on, we have to remain professional and make peoples money worth the service we offer.God Bless.Please huwag nio ng ulitin.As of 6:43pm, naka 3 lbm na ako. I took Gatorade, Immodium, ate plain rice, banana and apple BRAT diet to harden my stool. Nanghina ako sa 3 lbm ko. Hatyyy. I spoke to one of the staff there, she is going to get my address saying na they will report sa insurance so the insurance will take care of me. I told the lady to let her manager call me, mamaya niyan problema pa abutin ko sa ganyan.Haayyyy, what an experience. 🥺😓Spoke to Manager Ms Rhoda and she was nice. I will give her 5 stars. Totoong tao kausap.

Today is June 19th, a Wednesday. I only ordered one fried chicken with rice and guess what they gave me after 16.5 excruciating minutes of my life... They gave me a GARLIC chicken. This is beyond ridiculous when I came here expecting a fast meal to eat and got the exact opposite. A slow delivered meal that isnt edible for me because Ive never liked garlic.😡😡 I reordered and told me that they were out of chicken. I left hungry and unsatisfied 10/10 would never come back again.

I was there at noon on a Friday to try out their specialty chicken. They ran out!!! Not because they had a lot of customers but because they simply forgot to queue their cooking correctly. 20 minute wait for them to cook a new batch. Fast food? I dont think so.

Me and my family wasn’t happy with the service cashier name Stephen was Rude he doesnt know how to speak to the customer rightFirst he yelled at my mom when my mom opened the fridge without seeing the ‘do not open sign’ he stopped my momAnd said youre not suppose to open that only us can do it then He didnt even help my mom with her order and he just put back what my mom was getting we let it pass then i ordered when i was asking about chili oil i asked if they have any and he said yes then when i said where is it he said you didnt ask to have one so you dont have it .. we weren’t happy with how he talked to us he even speak tagalog and wasnt nice i hope someone can teach him how to better himself with communicating and giving service to the customer

Their frozen siopao and siomai is generic industrial version you purchase at any Chinese supermarket nothing special, better to get the Vietnamese bola bola mas may lasa.I grew up eating siopao, siomai & mami at Ma Mon Luk in the 50s at Quiapo now that was the REAL STUFF

For some reason, the food here doesnt taste the same way as I remember it back home. Jollibee is a lot closer to what the taste was back in the Philippines.Since Dumpling Station closed a few months back, this is the only close place I know of we can get shiu mai.

Great tasting sweet Asado siopao reason for the 4 star. Less one star because of having only one restroom. But taking into account this is a tiny place. It’s understandable.
