King Kong is a Taishan style Cantonese food, with a lot of authentic dishes like 5 flavor goose, clay pot eel rice.My personal favorite, clay lot eel rice. It is delicious.But unfortunately, you could only do to go. Due to labor shortages, the restaurant is not open for dine in.

Went there and the place was empty. I usually like supporting little mom and pop Asian restaurants but have to be honest, I thought the food was just ok. Maybe it was just the dishes were ordered. We ordered veggie eggrolls, general tso chicken and seafood pan fried noodles. Cant say anything about the eggrolls since my kids were the ones that ate it. The general tso chicken looked like it was just minced chicken, and when we tasted it the flavor was fine but this was barely breaded especially with very small meat pieces. The seafood pan fried noodles were crispy but did lack the pan flavor. The noodle dish was a bit on the salty side and the flavor that sticks out the most was soy sauce. I usually like the pan fried noodles for the pan flavor and sauce thats is a mixture of seasonings. I can make crispy noodles with soy sauce seasoning myself. Sorry I grew up with my dad cooking all the time, and he used to work at a restaurant. So Im a little picky.The bathroom has a sign indicating out of order but it worked. The floor felt greasy and I kept feeling like I was going to slip and fall.

I ordered some Togo, They use poor ingredients and are very unpalatable

Best fast Chinese food option in the area. Some cheaper options out there, but Kongs quality is worth an extra buck. Vast menu with lots of authentic options. Deep Fried Eggplant, Pot Stickers, and the Mongolian Beef are all-stars.

This restaurant is AMAZING! This is such a hidden gem. Food here is very well priced and the portion is amazing. Lunch is sometimes a little busy because of how good their food is. So, I usually try to order around dinner time.

After trying dampa next door disappointed, I was like lets give this restaurant a try. The experience was amazing, the food were extremely well cooked. i brought my wife back here many times and we both loved it so much. the workers there treated us like family!!! the best part is that they were so friendly that they were able to give us a big discount on a large order of party trays.

My girlfriends parents love this restaurant and Im not going to lie, its grown on me.Weve been here about 5 times in the past half year and its been a delight every time. Our favorite is the Salty Egg Pumpkin and the Scallop Fried Rice. Theres just something unique and special about their fried rice that no other restaurant has come to match. I cant put my finger on it, but Im a huge fan. We usually order 1-2 for our table and order an additional 2 to go for the next days lunch.All in all, great Chinese food!

We love this restaurant. If you are going to this place be prepared to eat the authentic dishes, not the regular American Chinese Food, it’s a bomb. Sooooo delicious!!!!!We love their claypot dishes...specially the braised pork with salted fish and eggplant in clay pot...yummmy with steam rice and crispy chicken.The staff are excellent. Very friendly, good service and fast. Most of all, prices are very reasonable... big portions too.

The fried rice was decent... my other dish was forgettable. When I got home I opened the order of deep fried wontons I got and there was nothing inside of 5 of them, lmao. The other two had one small nugget of chicken that was bouncing around inside of it. Kind of made me giggle, totally egregious... $7.45 for air stuffed fried wontons... are those considered vegetarian? lol
