I was shocked when I saw new owners. But I went ahead and tried It. Their food is better than it used to be. The chicken is fresher and it doesn't have weird hard spots like the old chicken in the dinners use to. I love the hot soup it is so yummy and the crab ragoon. I all around loved my entire meal nothing was reheated which was why I quit going to the old one. My food was always recooked. So glad that the new owners have improved it tremendously. Totally recommend and they have lunch and dinner specials. read more

I've been going to the west side Egg Roll King for years, so I tried the Kentucky location. I usually get the hot and sour soup, but I wanted a chicken dish. As I walked in, the cashier at the counter was wiping his nose with his hand multiple times. When he took my order he wiped his mouth with his hand. Then he scratched his forehead & wiped his nose with his hand again. A man from the kitchen walked to cashier's counter. The cashier handed him a stack of foldable paper food pails and stuck his hand in the top pail for a long time, as if to make sure I saw what he did. This was rude and strange. Anyone in food service knows to keep their hands clean when handling food and containers. It's possible that he applied hand sanitizer when I wasn't looking. The cashier was trying hard to get my attention and this didn't happen at the other Egg Roll King location. I got a double order to share the meal with others. When I got home, I told them what happened and they wouldn't eat the food. Without anyone to eat with, I put the meat, rice, and vegetables on a few plates and set them outside. It smelled good and overnight some animals ate it. I don't think I'm going to return. indy@yelp.com: I read the content guidelines at https://www.yelp.com/guidelines.

Food is pretty good, but the shrimp fried rice used to have nice pieces of shrimp and if u paid extra u could get even bigger shrimp now they only give u tiny bite size shrimp they're so small u can't even see them and they don't give u extra even though you paid for it. Very disappointing and I've been going here for years and always tip, I won't be back again! read more

The food was amazing and the employees were the best I can't wait to eat here again what a amazing place i highly recommend this place to people read more

Egg Roll King on Kentucky Ave - Chicken Fried Rice - Chinese Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

First time here and it was just awful. We usually got to China One down the street but they were closed and figured "you can really mess up rice and sweet and sour chicken". We were very wrong. Rice was mushy and flavorless, sweet and sour chicken was soggy, Crab Rangoon was dry and basically empty, chicken wings were just okay, basically the only thing edible. $70 in the trash read more

48.00 of straight trash!!!!!!! Egg rolls which were cabbage rolls!!!!!!! Pork lo mein was actually fettuccine noodles with chicken!!!!!!!! The Mongolian beef was all onions, and rough and tough beef!!!!!!!! Crab rangoon was not sweet, but barely stuffed!!!!!!! With their sweet-and-sour sauce you might glow neon red after eating!!!!!!! Rice is overcooked and mushy!!!!!!! With all this being said you might want to go down to China one!!!!!!! read more

Egg Roll King on Kentucky Ave - Chinese Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Located in the warehouse/industrial area of southwest Indianapolis, we came across Egg Roll King. I checked yelp! for reviews and they came up mostly very positive, so we decided to give it a try. It's Monday, and there is a line at the counter. My wife is crazy about crab rangoon (which is what probably caught her eye as we were driving by), so we ordered that, along with sweet and sour chicken, and cashew chicken. The lunch specials come with fried rice, egg roll, and a choice of hot and sour soup or egg drop soup. Our order was taken quickly, and were given soup and our drinks. My wife had the hot and sour soup, and devoured it. The egg drop soup seemed a bit thick, and needed more flavor but was edible. The crab rangoon arrived quickly, and were huge. They were crispy but tore apart easily, exposing melted cream cheese with large bits of surimi (imitation crab). The crab rangoon were crispy and tasty, one of the best I have had and better than anything where I live. Our meals quickly followed, and my wife devoured her sweet and sour chicken. I think she was hungry. The fried rice was one of the best I have had for a fast casual meal. The egg roll was hot and crispy, and filled with chopped cabbage and other vegetables. It held up well when slathered in soy sauce. I wasn't too excited about the cashew chicken. The chicken was battered and fried, covered in a gravy-like sauce, and sprinkled with chopped cashew pieces. But for $4.99, I shouldn't expect much more. read more

Wonder family owned business with delicious food! The beef fried rice is the best I've ever had!

The only reason I gave 4 stars is because they should have smaller containers & prices if you only eat so much like i do. Other than that this was my first time getting food from there. I just moved to this side of town and wanted Chinese food. It was the best chicken fried rice or fried rice period I've ever tasted! It was seasoned! OH MY GOODNESS! I'm definitely going back! I added extra onions and broccoli. It's the best fried rice I've had since I've moved to Indy in 2001. Trust me you won't be disappointed. The customer service was good. I was a little nervous about that at first. If you haven't tried them you should! read more

My wife and I were craving some orange chicken. I know I'm not eating in Hong Kong, but the least we can do is try to be decent. Rice was over cooked and over seasoned with pepper. The orange chicken was cheap fried chicken, with a soup of watered down orange marmalade. It was quite literally heated up jelly. The egg roll was watery with microscopic meat pieces. The crab wragoon had no crab and was tasteless, fried from a freezer burnt state. Overpriced and small portions. 10/10 do not recommend. read more

Fried rice and soup has too much black paper. All I can taste is the black pepper. I'll give it another try next time. I'll try a different dish. For $7 for all of this I guess I can't really complain. read more

Egg Roll King on Kentucky Ave - Lunch special - Chinese Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Doesn't look like much when you drive by because it isn't that much. A definite miss on this one. Paid almost $52 bucks for 3 people. We didn't get much either. Overpriced and paid more than we should have for gross food. The shrimp lo mein came with more pepper than shrimp. Beef with Broccoli must've been a vegan dish because you just could not find the beef. My dad got the shrimp egg foo young. They should've made him an omlette instead of what he got. Atrocious and will not be coming back. I'll even skip driving past that establishment again. I recommend a better one located in the Kroger Plaza. China One. Better options and more heapings than what we were given. Would've gone to China one but they were closed. So we tried this sorry for an excuse Chinese restaurant. read more

I have eaten Chinese food for 50+ years, grew up in NYC and ate in Chinatown often, so I know what good food is. Obviously, the Chinese offerings here in Indy are not on par with places like NY or CA, but most we have tried have at least been decent. This place was terrible! Rice was overcooked, egg rolls had been reheated several times and were almost burnt, and the entrees were lousy and very skimpy. Egg drop soup was just OK. Adding to the lousy food, we were also overcharged for our meal. Not sure about all the glowing reviews for this place, but I would not recommend this place to anyone. read more

Driving through the southwest side on Kentucky, you might see a kinda seedy-looking Chinese restaurant. You might think that this may be a diamond in the rough, or a great greasy spoon. Nope... it's a seedy Chinese restaurant with food to match the decor. The counter-service is nice and the people serve you with a smile, but the food is pretty bad. The friend rice is bland, the sweet and sour soup can be accurately described as peppery goo, and the lo mein is nothing special. There are a few high points that save this place from being relegated to the one star list. The fried potstickers are amazing. The prices are also pretty good, so if you're in the mood for crappy Chinese, you'll get off cheap. read more

Very friendly staff and ver good food and reasonable prices and I highly recommended this place to anyone.

Modest establishment with solid food. Fresh and ready fast. I had an order or crab Rangoon and the General Soul chicken lunch special and it was ok very tasty. The owners operate the place and they are very friendly and attentive. I will be back. read more

This place is disgusting I do not recommend eating here ever I went last night. I got twice cooked chicken with no mushrooms because I'm allergic to mushrooms he gave me my order there was mushrooms in it I didn't notice until I got home and put it on a plate and I am picking through it to give some to my kid and there was a bug in my food it. I called the restaurant back and the man said they don't give out refunds absolutely disgusting all I wanted was my $14 back don't understand why that's so hard I do not recommend eating here read more

This location has a convenient drive thru and offers take out as well. You can eat there, they have limited capacity seating. Their food is always hot and fresh, but you might have to wait a bit if they are super busy. My favorite is their egg rolls and their hot & sour soup. read more

I eat here once a week. Some things are good and some are so-so. You have to know what to order. The hot and sour soup is the best in the city. The egg rolls are frozen and deep fried. Not made locally. Be safe and go with moo shu pork or lomein. You won't be disappointed. Fried rice that comes with the specials is just filler, no flavor. Fried rice entrees have all the trimmings and is decent. Shrimps are small. read more

I almost hate going to this restaurant. But it's the only Chinese restaurant with a drive thru that's close. Usually the food is adequate. This time my shrimp in my sweet n sour shrimp was actually burnt! My crab rangoon was fine. The rice was fine. But come on... burnt shrimp!! read more

Hit or miss, depends on cooking and you don't feel the safest when you come in as you walk through a large iron jail door but that area of Washington street is a lil... well.... sketchy to say the least but you will feel like a Good Samaritan giving the homeless people money that you will be asked for repeatedly in this area! read more

Food was at least fresh, but everything else was meh. Portions for a typical Chinese restaurant was minuscule and the prices were not great. She charged me for a cup of water! Place is pretty nasty inside. I won't be going back. read more

Not much to look at, but the food is great. Prices are very reasonable and the staff is very fast and friendly. My favorites are the Mu Shu Pork and Hot and Sour Soup. The soup has a nice flavor to it and is not the average kill your taste buds with spiciness that you get most places. Egg rolls and fried rice are good, but nothing extra ordinary. read more

Egg Roll King on KY Ave Is the best Chinese food around. Been going there for many years. Owner ran and opperated.

I've gone to this place for years. The sweet n sour chicken is delish. May be a small old facility, but great prices and good eats!

Very clean kitchen. More so than most restaurants. Quality food at a fair price. Love their crab ragoons.

This place is horrible, their rice is mush, no flavor. Crab ragoon taste frozen. Please don't ever go here
