SOOO Good......everything is very good and a good variety of buffet dishes..... The specialty dishes are wonderful..... Good portions.....good price.......very clean and a good selection of drinks... My concern is the way some of the customers treat the server lady...... who's always there....working hard..... listening to everyone's requests all day long.......heat lamps and steam......wow....... Please everyone, treat the server(s) with respect and give her a good tip.....she certainly deserves it....... read more

This restaurant has been a family favorite ever since I was a little girl. One of the things I've always appreciated is the incredible value...you get a generous amount of food for such an affordable price. Beyond that, the staff truly make this place special. The team in the kitchen and the woman who serves customers are always kind, welcoming, and genuinely courteous. I had some extra time today and wanted to give them the recognition they deserve for years of consistently great service. I stopped by and ordered a large hot and sour soup because I was feeling under the weather, and it was exactly what I needed. It was comforting, flavorful, and hit the spot perfectly. Thank you for all the wonderful years of delicious food and exceptional service. It's places like this that keep customers coming back for generations. read more

King's Wok - The chow mein is always my favorite - Chinese Near Me - Monrovia, California

We came here on a weekday lunch so it wasn't busy. The food was cheap and fresh. I like that they take card. I wouldn't recommend getting the Thai ice tea because it was really watered down. read more

My other half was craving Chinese fried rice and we had two options in the area either the big corporate Panda or this mom and pop fast food restaurant. We ordered the one item combo to share and requested the chow mein, fried rice, and potato chicken. The food was so good that my other half thinks this is the best Chinese fast food she's had in a long time. read more

Decent food, but I was there late and several options were no longer available. Wanted to try the bbq pork, so will have to go another day for that. read more

Went in today (Monday) at around 5pm. It seems they make small serving portions so food stays fresh, or maybe they don't have a lot of business/don't want to be wasteful (referring to the chaffing dishes). I've lived down the street for almost 6 years and never tried this place, but I was craving some Chinese food and figured today's the day! It was sooooo yummy! I got a combo B & an Arizona kiwi strawberry for $13 cash. Bbq pork & a mushroom chicken with both - chow mein & fried rice. No notes, they are definitely worth checking out! The woman who served me was very sweet too, i will be back! read more

Been going here for Asian food for a few years now... Food is good and the price is good for what you get.. I enjoy the food and it tastes great as well. read more

Work trip had me staying at the Doubletree down the street. While looking for some local Chinese food to avoid the chains, Yelp directed me to King's Wok. I am so glad I found my way here! This very unassuming strip mall americanized Chinese food joint is serving up some above average Chinese food! When I'm in the area, I would choose King's Wok over any chain restaurant. The service is good, but the food is better! Give them a try for yourself. read more

King's Wok - the front of a king's wok store - Chinese Near Me - Monrovia, California

The pork chops with onions and peppers are my absolute favorite. So good!!!! I like to get it with steamed rice. The noodles are so good. I always just feel like they're little more high calorie than the white rice ,but they're delicious. also, I get the two item combo and I get both of those items with the pork chops. They are that good and I eat it all. I'm not gonna lie. It's a lot, but I do it. read more

I been here for the shrimp soup twice! Love the veggies and flavor. They take apple pay and you can call and order ahead of time. read more

King's Wok - Shrimp vegetable soup - Chinese Near Me - Monrovia, California

The food look old. Maybe I arrived to late for the fresh atuff. Very greasy. Could get improved. I get it it's hard times for everybody.

I loved the orange chicken. The fried rice was nice. The egg rolls were super crisp but mushy on the inside. The chow mein may have been slightly overcooked for my liking. The service was fast and the food was reasonably priced. I'm definitely going back and ordering the orange chicken and fried rice again. read more

My go to for great fast food (without all of the additives), very reasonable, good selection, and always in and out quickly.

Was looking for a local Chinese food place to fill my craving for chow mein and found this place. My boyfriend went in to order us 2 combos. He said the levels of food were lower so people must be loving it and I ended up with fresh orange chicken which is a win for me. The chow mein, orange chicken, beef and broccoli I got was delicious and really hit the spot. My boyfriend also said their fried rice was really good. Happy to have found a local spot and will definitely be back! read more

King's Wok - Orange chicken and chow mein - Chinese Near Me - Monrovia, California

The fried rice was tasteless and there wasn't much meat in the entree. Probs 6 pieces total. I wouldn't return. Sorry

Food was a solid 8/10 Servings were good and the server was pretty fast It was 10 mins to closing so the place was empty but I would go again Ambiance was cool and clean read more

Oh my GOODNESS this is a hole in the wall!!! This place has amazing prices, great portions, great staff. Place is clean, food is fresh, food is HOT. Chicken has chicken in it, flavorful, fresh. Small portions are made all the time from the time I was sitting there eating there. I'm so surprised I found another Chinese food spot that is delicious, I ended up buying another plate to share with the family. The lady was very nice, the chef is a one man show who cooks all of this. I can appreciate the hustle. 1000% telling all my friends and family about this place. You won't get done wrong by coming here. I'm so glad Yelp told me to come here. read more

King's Wok - Chinese Near Me - Monrovia, California

I've been going to this restaurant for many years, maybe 7, but more as a fast food take out. I've always loved their fried rice because they use chunks of onions, which makes anything taste great. Their take out combos include breaded pork & vegetables, shrimp in lobster sauce, etc., which isn't anything that you'd normally find at a take out Asian restaurant. However, I went there a couple of weeks ago but didn't know what I was in the mood for. Then when I got to the door, I suddenly took notice and attention to the many menu pictures on the window and building. So for the 1st time, I placed an order for a Mongolian Beef plate. I took it to work and was dumbfounded. It tasted AWESOME! After decades of weight loss, I was not able to finish the dish, which was a great serving. So I brought it home later that night to share with my fiancee. Instead, she shared it with her son & grandson (I was still full from lunch) and King's Wok had 3 new customers. I was asked to place an order for each of them whenever I decided to have lunch from there again. Since then, I've already been there for more Mongolian Beef, Mongolian Chicken, and Chicken Fried Rice. Now, I rarely go there for fast food items anymore. The meals are awesome and in good serving size. read more

The food here that's in disappoint but it's not a lot better than say panda express. That said even though prices went up it's still a very affordable lunch spot. I presume if you go between 12:00 and 1:00 p.m. the food is even better than today when we went after 2:30 p.m. . Nothing stood out but nothing was terrible either the fried rice and chow mein from the heat lamp I just okay the dishes made to order a little more expensive but worth the money. Overall the ambience is welcoming and fairly clean. Their table condiments include only soy sauce at the moment. They used to have sriracha sauce but not anymore; (they do offer (?the sachets, but it's not the same--not even close!) The owners seem very friendly, and they take credit cards with no minimum purchase. I tried to recommend places like this to support local businesses, and I really think King's Wok fits the bill. Give them a try when you're in the area. Especially their orange chicken, beef and broccoli, Kung Pao chicken, and house special shrimp chow mein (lo mein) are always dependable. Cheers! read more

I appreciate this no nonsense fast food joint for its simplicity. The chow mein was tasty, and luckily fresh when I arrived. Excellent portion sizes at affordable prices. No complaints about service because I expected the service to be akin to a street taco vendor - straightforward, short with simple words, and quick. Ambiance was lacking and similar to a Yoshinoya with only one other person waiting for their food. That said, I'm definitely returning to explore other sides. read more

King's Wok - Chow mein with walnut shrimp; chow mein - Chinese Near Me - Monrovia, California

Best noodles I've found in the SGV. Other options are ok, sometimes they are stingy with the portions, specially when the Mom is serving but food overall is good. read more

I think this place is really stepping up their game with the flavors and quality of the food , it's super bomb! I just expected a little bit more portion wise but I ended up full regardless. I do wish the service was a bit more friendlier though but it's super efficient! read more

Noodles are too overcooked. They serve you poorly. I ordered bbq pork and they literally gave me 3 small pieces

Food was horrible noddles where not done well or overcooked orange chicken had no chicken. It was just breaded It was my first time here and I will not be returning here again I don't recommend this place feel bad for the people because they have good customer service, even though they gave me one chill for a combos read more

This restaurant is right next to our office. We like the people who work here and the food looks good. I suggest ordering their shrimp fried rice or kung pao shrimp - it's made fresh and is delicious. Support your local business. They need all the help they can get. If you have something vicious to say, take it off yelp because you are hurting people who are trying to make a decent living. read more

Food was actually good but I think they use MSG. Shortly after eating there I was feeling hot, my face was red and I felt nauseous. I haven't had MSG in 15 years and that's exactly what happened last time. read more

Tasty Chinese food you can see it. Vegetables looks fresh and big portion. Noodles and fried rice is yummy. read more

Their food is not gourmet level but in my opinion it is good for the price. Basically like those Diamond in a rough good places based on the price. Service is you pick and they'll put it on your plate depending on the combo you'd choose. I personally like their chowmein with mushroom chicken and their honey coconut shrimp (no clue if it's honey walnut shrimp since I don't see any walnut and it taste with a hint of coconut). If you don't like the combos, shrimp fried rice is a good choice. Ask for soy sauce and hot sauce if you want to add more flavor into it. If you'd like a quick to go meal or you can't be choosy because of limited budget but still want to be full with a decent meal, go here. read more

It's hard to find bad Chinese fast food places but man, this place takes the cake. I ordered the spicy chicken and it was hardy even spicy, on top of the fact that it tasted terrible. The orange chicken was mediocre at best. The only thing I feel like they got right was the white rice. Never ever coming back. read more

Bad service and bad food my girl got sick from it Lady on the phone while serving me.. Very stingy on the meat.. Egg rolls had no meat or veggies inside.. Its always hit and miss with these small businesses . this is a miss for sure! read more

food quality isn't as tasty as it used to be i will admit the fried rice is decent other than that im having a hard time stomaching food from here the customer service interaction was ok noodle serving size seems to be on the smaller side even with brand new noodles out kinda makes me wonder how they keep in business compared to yellow submarine that used to exist near by and they served bimbimbap wings sushi etc.... read more

When I first saw this place on yelp I was skeptical because of the review on here. I decided to give it a try despite some of the bad reviews. This is now my second time trying King Wok and I honestly don't know what these other people are talking about lol. Food is great for the price and the woman who is working the front is nothing but polite. If you want good Chinese fast food for an amazing price this place should be a go to. For the people who didn't get "quality food" I would try again. If you still don't like it then you probably don't know good food but that's okay read more

Great food and portions for price. Probably the cheapest filling meal you'll be able to get. Worker is always fast and clean (uses gloves to take cards/cash). And it's Chinese fast food, don't expect a bougie meal read more

Came here for lunch . Had to say hello to the lady 3 times before I was acknowledged. I ordered a one item combo . All noodles and chicken and green beans . I literally got 2 small pieces of chicken ! This will be the last time I ever visit this place again ! What a rip off !!! read more

King's Wok - Chicken and green beans - Chinese Near Me - Monrovia, California

First time trying this place the rice taste funky sweet sour sauce was gross. The noodles where ok will not be eating here ever again

Meat is abit dry even with heavy seasoning. I'd rather go Panda Express with couple doubler more

Honestly, I don't know why this place isn't more popular. The prices are from 1996 and the food is great! You cannot beat this value. Is it the absolute most mouth watering food you'll ever try? Probably not..however, if you are looking for something fast, cheap, tasty, FILLING, and some great customer service, look no further than the King's Wok! Legend says the king himself gave his wok to the kitchen staff. FIVE STARS, DON'T HATE read more

I stopped in for a late lunch. The food was excellent. I had a combo with chow mein/fried rice, shrimp in lobster sauce & BBQ pork. Very clean. Several of the items on the steam bar look very enticing. I'll try some of those the next time I come here. And there will be a next time! read more

Good here is delicious fresh and cheap only comes out to around 9 bucks something. This would've been my go to spot if it weren't so far away from home. only negative I have for this spot is that it's way too greasy I can see the oil coming out of the food read more
