King's Chinese

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!

I recently tried King's Chinese Restaurant in Freehold, and overall, it was a good experience. We ordered take-out, and the restaurant was packed with people picking up their orders. Despite the crowds, the food was ready to go and lined up for take-out. We ordered several dishes, and I was impressed with the amount of food we got. The portions were generous, and it felt like we got a lot of value for our money. The Egg Foo Young was good, but could have used a bit more salt to enhance the flavor. The Five Flavored Shrimp was a little too spicy for our liking, even though we had requested it to be less spicy. The Egg Roll was a standout - it was big and juicy, and we could tell that it was made with care. The Hot and Sour Soup was delicious and spicy, just the way we like it. Lastly, the Singapore Chow Mei Fun was good. Overall, I would give King's Chinese Restaurant 4 1/2 stars out of 5. The only reason being that the Five Flavored Shrimp was much spicier than we had anticipated, even though we had requested less spicy. But, again, this is a personal preference. The food was delicious, the portions were generous, and the service was quick and efficient. I would definitely recommend giving it a try if you're in the mood for Chinese food in Freehold.

Not much interior decorating in here. There aren’t any windows or design to the spot. I guess they want the food to do the talking. Unfortunately, the general tso’s wasnt crispy and didn’t have a ton of flavor. The sweet and sour chicken was better but also lacked that crunch that makes the dish so addicting. Wasn’t bad at all but I have it at a 3.5 stars.

Old style Cantonese which is my favorite however on my first takeout order I was somewhat disappointed. The pork fried rice didn't have the bean sprouts or scallion or white onion. It had some egg but overall the rice was dry and granular like it had been sitting for a while I had to fix it at home adding the above mentioned ingredients with a spritz of water to bring the rice back to life. The Chicken with garlic sauce at 18.99 had good flavor but the portion was very small and it was missing the usual mushrooms and red peppers and the rich Szechuan sauce. The Chicken wings had way too much coating on them to be enjoyed. Eggrolls are very good! Now for the saving grace... The ribs are probably the best you are going to have at any Chinese restaurant or watch out BBQ place! Tender fall off the bone with flavor ful meat you will not regret your order! I will they were quite busy but my food came out too fast to be properly prepared. Overall they are pricey for the quality of ingredients in the food or lack thereof. The ribs are the "gotta have" in this restaurant and I was told the seafood platter but that's for next time!

I started going to this place when they first opened up almost 40 years ago. I no longer live in NJ but when I come to visit I always eat here. They have the best Chinese food around. This is a family owned establishment and a few things have changed over the years and decades but everything is as good now as it was back then. I highly recommend. Great portion sizes lots of options very friendly staff and family. A+++
