My grandmother whom is very good at cooking said it had the greatest general tsos chicken she has ever had. the staff and service was great aswell they were very nice to me. All in all underrated gen

This restaurant in Frankford Avenue was great. The Rice was really fresh and they have served chicken. I'll give this place 5 Stars for making the food really fresh and well done.

We ordered for the first time tonight for delivery through Grubhub. The order arrived correct and hot. My great-grandson and I got Wonton soup, egg rolls, chicken lomein, pork fried rice and General Tso's Chicken. My husband got spring rolls and the Bourbon Chicken. He loved the chicken, said it was as good as the mall's. Everything else was just the way we liked it. King Food has a new regular customer.

Ordered shrimp, mix veggies, garlic sauce w/white rice, fried bananas & fried dumplings to share with my sis...all delicious and flavorful! Really authentic spices and flavors not your average Chinese place where the cooking and prepping was basic and familiar...Really satisfied with the quality of the food and the delivery service was not even 20 minutes...overall great first experience. Will be ordering from here when craving Asian food!!

I like this place, it's local, foods good and the woman who runs it is very friendly. I've ordered online and in person, I've picked food up and had it delivered. Never too bad of an experience. We usually always get the same thing and each time it's good. They can be a bit stingy on the extras, but I guess that's business.

Stopped by today for lunch and ordered the General Tso's lunch special. It was only $5.65 for an order of chicken, pork fried rice, and an egg roll. The food is everything you want out of a Chinese food place: quick, cheap, and abundant. King Food Restaurant is my go-to in the area!

King Food serves your typical "Amercanized" Chinese food. Anyway, the place looks kind of shady from outside. The interior could really use some updating, and the lighting can definitely move above "dive bar" status if some effort was put into it. Yet, the food is pretty decent. Their lunch specials are pretty cheap, usually around $5 a pop. I get the sweet and sour chicken special, which comes with wonton soup/soda and your choice of rice. I get their fries too, because hey, they're on the menu anyway! Delivery is prompt, as well as take-out. From my take-out days, every item was made to order, which was great. I have to admit, I'm a bit biased because of the nostalgia factor this place has for me. When I first moved to the northeast, I ordered a lot of food from here. The woman at the counter recognizes me, as I've swung by here more times than I can remember.
