As many of my loyal followers know, I've been very hesitant to try Chinese food after my infamous food poisoning experience last year but I couldn't help but give this establishment a try. Everywhere I go I hear people rave about the quality of the food here and being the noble reviewer I am I decided to put aside my PTSD and give King's a shot... and I am so glad I did. King's has now become a staple in my household whenever everyone is in the mood for Chinese food. You truly cannot go wrong with anything on the menu and everything I've tried so far has been delicious. The sesame chicken is great, the dumplings are small but flavorful, and the noodles are OUTSTANDING. I also really appreciate the friendly staff, and the owner Frank runs a very efficient operation. Whether it's pickup or dine-in, I can confidently say you will love King's and it might just become a staple in your household too. read more

I haven't found a Chinese sit down restaurant in the area since Szechuan Star closed years ago. We came on a Wednesday night and were surprised to see how many people were dining in. The owner, Freddy, is very chatty and told us on weekends, they have a line for tables. His service is amazing, he connects with all his patrons, and is super generous. He brought us hot and sour soup, additional dumplings, and gave us a taste of his chicken and eggplant dish. We ordered the standard Chinese take out items--general Tsos chicken, vegetable lo mein and string beans stir fried with garlic. Everything came out quickly. The general tsos chicken could have been more crispy, but I appreciated that they weren't just half breading. The vegetable lo mein was good, but the string beans were covered with pork. The menu doesn't state anything about pork, and I don't eat red meat. I didn't want to make it inconvenient, especially after Freddy had been so friendly and generous, so I just scraped off the pork. The hot and sour soup also had bits of pork in it, though it is normally vegetarian. Wonderful service and food, just wished the menu was more clear. read more

This place is alright. Couple things for me were a the issue. 1.) I ordered a boneless spare rib combination platter & I couldn't substitute the rice for lo mein. This is the 1st restaurant I've ever ordered from & they did not allow it. 2.) when I got my food the amount of rice I got was close to nothing. The ribs themselves on top of it were very dry. I've had better. Jade palace in freehold is better. I would not order from this restaurant again. read more

I did not like the pork fried rice, it didn't have good flavor. The boneless pork taste good.

King's Chinese is a fantastic family. Run Chinese restaurant in the old school way. From the second you walk in and see the bowls of Chinese noodles to the family atmosphere and the comfortable booths. The food is incomparable. I'm an egg foo young Maniac and their egg foo young is so Superior. Just watch when you go on the weekends cuz it gets so crowded you won't be able to get in. read more

My daughter and son-in-law couldn't stop raving about the barbecue ribs at King's Chinese in Freehold. According to them, the meat just falls off the bone! So, when I happened to see a TikTok video featuring King's and their famous ribs, I knew we had to try them out for ourselves. When we arrived, the place was packed--everyone was already enjoying an early dinner, and nearly every table had ribs on them. That alone says something! We decided to do takeout and placed an order that included: * Sweet and Sour Chicken (comes with a small pint of white rice) * Small order of BBQ Ribs * Large order of BBQ Ribs * King's Special Fried Rice * Pork Lo Mein * Plus, they gave us a free bag of crispy noodles with sweet-and-sour sauce--such a nice touch! Let me tell you, this is not your average cheap Chinese takeout. The quality was noticeable right away. Sweet and Sour Chicken: Delicious! It was all chicken--none of that overly battered, airy stuff you get at other places. Crispy, flavorful, and satisfying. White Rice: Standard, but fresh and well-cooked. BBQ Ribs: Absolutely lived up to the hype. Tender, flavorful, and the meat just slid off the bone. Not overly sauced (which I prefer). The small order was $14.95 and the large (10-12 ribs) was $30. Pricey, yes--but worth every penny. King's Special Fried Rice: Surprisingly excellent. It looked like brown rice at first glance, but it wasn't. Nicely cooked, not too salty, and packed with meat, shrimp, and vegetables--everything you'd want in a house special fried rice. Pork Lo Mein: Another hit. The noodles were perfectly cooked--not greasy or over-sauced--and full of tender pork slices and fresh veggies. It had that classic lo mein flavor but felt more balanced and homemade. The service was friendly and the restaurant has a cozy, inviting atmosphere. Next time, we're definitely dining in. Our total was $94.00, which felt reasonable considering the generous portions and quality of the food. If you're in the Freehold area and love great Chinese food--or you're a rib lover--King's Chinese is a must-visit. read more

I needed a last minute very large catering order! Frank took the order. The food by far was the best Chinese food I have gotten in the area.

I that this place has a four star rating. When I tell you, there's zero flavor in every single dish that I ordered, it is an understatement. None of the spicy dishes were spicy. All items were bland. Literally the bottom of the barrel when it comes to Chinese food. Will not order from here again. Ps also no fortune cookies cmonnnnnn read more

Our first visit to King's Chinese was for early dinner. The extensive menu included the basics and several exotic dishes. Service was friendly and attentive. The food was well prepared, served hot, and tasted comparable to the food in a good restaurant in New York City's Chinatown. The portions were very generous, giving some take-home left-overs. The only minor improvement would be to provide larger dining plates that allow room for different dishes. We will certainly plan a return visit when in the area. read more

Had a great lunch meal today at Kings Chinese in Freehold NJ. I enjoy their extensive men and realize that their offerings are fresh and tasty. The wait staff is friendly, attentive and efficient. Parking is sometimes tough since the restaurant is in a strip mall that is sometimes crowded. But I wouldn't let that dissuade you from sampling their cuisine. The restaurant hums under the watchful eye of the manager Frank. read more

The food is pretty bland... Pork fried rice, bland. Chicken with string beans, bland. Lo mein - no flavor. Wor wonton soup - good. Pork egg foo young - tasted like a plain omelet. It just wasn't a good dinner and the bill for 4 items was 70$ quite expensive.... I wouldn't waste my time here again. read more

The best! You will wait in line but it's worth it. Generous portions, excellent flavors. Over all a great Chinese restaurant!

Terrible!! Don't be deceived! First time here and it was Saturday July 19, 2025 at about 5:45pm. We were looking for a new sit down Chinese place to try. The place was packed so we thought wow this should be amazing!! Well this was the worst Chinese meal ever!!!! And we eat Chinese often! To start, you write your own name on a wall and the lady at the front doesn't really pay attention to who's next. She's too busy with to go orders. We finally sit after an hour and the two staff are over whelmed. We both ordered the beef and broccoli combo with pork fried rice and egg roll. We also got pork fried dumplings. The dumpling dough was weird textured and they did not look like traditional dumplings, not impressed at all. Then our meals were horrible! Lack of any flavor, watery and the texture of the meat was like boiled and had a coating of cornstarch. Gross. The fried rice was bland but looked great and dark. I was so deceived looking at this yelp page pictures. Also the meals are like $21.00 plus. Over priced! Either the people of freehold have bland taste buds, never ventured out elsewhere to have real Chinese or like wasting their money consistently! I have no idea why this place is so busy. I would never recommend this place and will never be back! Waste of a dinner and $70.00!!! Left so disappointed and disgusted. The guy asked do we want a to go box and what's the matter? UM NO THANKS!!! We felt like saying your food is disgusting and thanks for a crappy meal! Save yourself the disgust!!! read more

Great food, generous portion, and friendly service. Everything was fresh and tasted great, would definitely come back.

Food and service never disappoints. Thanks to Frank and his team for accommodating special request.

We are so happy to find that the owners of Pan Oriental are now part of the place. They are great with preparing food Gluten Free for my husband. The best dumplings around and the Young chow Fried rice is a must. read more

We happen to find this place by accident. So glad to find this place. For a first time visit, I was very impressed by how welcoming this place is and I was seated right away. You're welcomed with wonton and hot tea. The food is delicious, they adjust the spice level to your liking. Highly recommend chicken & mixed vegetables and vegetable Lo Mein.

My only regret is that I can't give this place six stars. It is literally classic New York Chinese. The people who own it, and run, it cannot be more authentically to heart. The only place i would order from. Fresher than anywhere else. Highly recommended !! read more

Best spareribs. Food is delicious and the staff is excellent and friendly. Definitely will go back.

Just ok. I don't get it. Sit down old fashioned type with the tea, duck sauce, noodles etc. Live 2 minutes from here so convenience is why I come here. We had soup, ribs and chicken and cashews. Ribs are good but everything else is just ok. Definitely pricey and not really worth it. They have a big following so it will keep the business going. Don't bother. read more

Excellent food, service and price. I wont go anywhere else thats hiw good the food was. Known for their ribs.

I came here because of all the great reviews, but unfortunately I didn't find it that great. I ordered the sesame chicken dinner with vegetable fried rice. The breading to the sesame chicken was soggy. The sauce is suppose to be sweet and tangy. The sauce here had a bit of a tang, but lacked any sweetness. They need to improve the sauce to this dish! I expected for the higher price point here that the vegetable fried rice would of had better quality vegetables in it plus they didn't give you any Chinese corn in it like other places do. The vegetable egg roll it came with was very good! Overall, I thought this place was mediocre. I'll give this place another shot because of all the great reviews. I'd definitely don't recommend ordering the sesame chicken here! read more

Food was great place was packed. Only thing I didn't like I felt like I was being rushed to eat

Just ordered take-out fr Kings. We've going here for years. This time will prob be our last. Beef and broccoli bland. Chicken and broccoli was ok. Pork fried rice was poor. Rice was different and I couldn't locate any pork in it. Throw in the lack of duck sauce for the fried noodles and we'll write them off. There's other Chinese restaurants in Freehold so I'll take my taste buds there read more

The egg drop soup, tomato egg drop and wonton tomato egg drop were pretty good. I heard there spare ribs were amazing so ordered that, but was underwhelmed. Also there was an issue with my takeout order so I tried to call and the phone kept saying user busy. I understand they're busy but there needs to be a better system to have someone pickup the phone. I would give it another chance and try something else. read more

It's late and hubby and I had some errands up in the area. We were tired and neither of us felt like cooking. I used our trusted Yelp app and let it guide us to a nearby Chinese takeout place. Out pops King's which I totally forgot about. We call up to confirm they are open and they tell us, "No outside tables are available; only take out." We placed the order by phone and are later greeted by the owner, Freddy and his wife. We were relieved when we saw they followed all the COVID-19 guidelines on handling the food and wearing their masks. The phone was ringing and it looks like their business is still going strong. It's obvious, they still take pride in their food. I can tell however, Freddy misses his customers greatly. After we got home and unpacked, we are happy to state, their lo-mein is not drenched in grease and the roast beef tastes very good. They truly tried to put in as much noodles as possible into the container because it was stuffed beyond belief. For great, simple Chinese take out without the fuss, we will always go back to King's Chinese Restaurant, when we are in the area. read more

Under new ownership. Very sad to see this place go. Unfortunately the food is not the same. Will not be returning.
