Food was finished fast! Huge portions, friendly service, the infamous woman that I have read about in other comments walked our food around the glass . My only complaint was that the pork fried rice had no flavor, but I also noticed that everything that came from the deep fryer looked like the oil had just been changed that day. So they might just be really clean and you’re not getting the flavor from the orders before yours in the rice. Reasonably priced. Would definitely order from here again. Ordering on the phone wasn’t the easiest as it was very loud there and there is some what of a laguage barrier, but they offer online ordering too.

Working nearby and was looking for something good on a small budget. The general tso’s lunch special was excellent. Perhaps not the “best I ever had,” but it was worth the wait. Fresh and huge portion. Looking forward to my next visit.

The food is excellent at King Food. It looks like a convenience store, but is actually a cool hidden Chinese American takeout and delivery joint. The prices are very good for the large portion and quality food. I ordered the usual General Tso’s chicken last time and received a very delicious and crunchy, well cooked General Tso’s chicken dish. If you’re going to get Chinese take out or fast food, you should certainly try this hidden gem. They could clean up the outside a little to make it more welcoming, but I have really gotten to liking the hole-in-the-wall look to the store. It’s kind of chic even. Most importantly though, it’s just quality food for the price.

This was by far the worst Chinese food place I’ve ever ordered food from I ordered fried wontons and they gave me soup wontons then when I ordered the chicken and broccoli the stuff was so watered down that the chicken was still White like it’s been sitting there for at least a day or so or maybe a couple hours the people barely understand English there I don’t understand how this business is still running

I used to live about two blocks from King Food, in Philadelphia, Then I moved to Sicklerville, NJ. Two evenings ago my family and I decided on Chinese food for dinner. Guess where I went for it? King Food, in Philadelphia; eighteen miles away! That should tell you something!
