This used to be my go-to place in high school for Chinese-American food and I hadn't been back in a while, but tonight I decided to check them out for the nostalgia factor. I got a General Tso's and combination aka the china king fried rice and would highly recommend them on the menu. Go visit this small business if you want Chinese American food and are in the area

It's hard finding a chinese food spot when you're not familiar with the area. It's pretty much trial and error. However, I ordered Sweet N' Sour Chicken w/ fried rice. The chicken wasn't the best and the fried rice was really basic. It didn't have the bean sprouts, eggs, and all regular ingredients of fried rice. My co-worker ordered the homestyle tofu and she stated is was very bland and lacked any flavor. Shrimp lo mein was also ordered and the noodles were larger than normal and was okay in flavor. It didn't meet the "good hole in the wall chinese spot" threshold.

Nothing special about the food. Their chicken wings tasted very poor. The major issue is the behavior and rudeness of the two ladies (the one with the eye glasses and the other lady who keeps chewing food while attending the cash register). Both are extremely rude and crude. They scream at you like you owe them something. I am a paying customer and I cant understand why they are screaming at me and so very rude. Stay away at all cost from this restaurant. China Wok located in Vienna VA is by far has the best food and service.

Visited for take-out dinner. Service was quick, food was tasty and ample portions. Nothing fancy here, but fills the hole.

Great food at great price. Good location near Tysons Corner area.

The store was old and needed updates. The food was not as good as in the past. Greasy egg rolls, general tso was in smaller portions than before as well.

When I went here I liked that the general Tso chicken it was sweet a lil spicy but when I came back I think they changed the chef who made it every time I get it it's like a new person has made, and I love there chicken fried rice it's nice
I was a frequent flyer at this location mostly because of the fresh ingredients, quick service and most of all the value. During a recent visit after a sudden craving for Sweet and Sour Chicken I was certainly pleased the business is still in operation after the pandemic, however, I had to ask... is this a dinner serving? Unfortunately, I did not check until I got home - still delicious but it could have sworn this came wiht more green pepper, carrots and pineapple the last time I got this - and very cool the sweet and sour sauce is on the side. The remaining goodness is how the chicken is lightly battered and crispy not like those other places where they lay on the batter over a tiny morsel of meat. The Shrimp and Lobster Sauce is still the best around so I feel I owe it to myself to investigate... "how are the lunch portions?" and the craving for Shrimp and Lobster will come soon enough. I also forgot to rub the buddha's belly and things are not going so well... maybe tomorrow for lunch and just watch as I make a plug for it's just lunch.

Unfortunately the quality of the food here is not great. Had the orange chicken and sesame chicken which were both chewy and stringy without a ton of flavor. Egg roll very greasy. The staff are nice and the prices are cheap for NOVA.

I've been eating at China King since 2011. It is not fancy at all but it is very tasty and very cheap (especially for lunch). Their lunch "number 1" Kung Pao chicken is my favorite. I drive 20 minutes to get my fix :) Their Singapore Rice noodles are fantastic (and did I mention cheap?)

Love China King for the Price. But 4 to 5 dollars more and China Wok a mile away is way better.

The most tasteless Chinese food we have ever had. Undercooked portions with very over cooked portions. Pork fried rice tasted like badly made white rice with food coloring. The rice was even mushy and mealy. Shrimp in lobster sauce was baby shrimp that smelled rancid. The dish had far too many water chestnuts as well. Not a matter of taste but overkill. Ended up throwing it all away after trying several bites of each of the dishes. We will not order from here again.
Great value for good Chinese food
