After visiting NASA, we decided to try this restaurant, especially with all the good reviews. The first thing I noticed was on the menu, it showed very clear that EVERYTHING on the menu was $1.00 more!. This should have been a red flag. Anyway, we ordered from the lunch menu. My daughter in law ordered the Beef with Chinese Vegetables, and I ordered the Shredded Spicy Pork. We quickly realized that we both had the same sauce. The menu says you can alter the level of spiciness. I am not sure what that that was supposed to mean. I asked the server why my sauce was not spicy. She didn't understand in English or Chinese. Now for the taste of the food. Both dishes were bland (same seasoning) and not so great. I liked he soup but my daughter thought hers was too salty. I doubt we will return.

The place isn't all that bad but it's not the greatest. The food sits out wayy too long which makes most of it super hard. The service is always good and the variety is good for the price. I just wish the chicken wasn't so hard. Atmosphere is what is expected for a buffet. Their Soda machine always seems out or needs to be changed. The two times I have been there it was bad even after getting a different flavor. I more than likely won't return. I gave it a second chance before I gave my review but the feeling was the same.

This is a superior hole in a wall Chinese restaurant. It's been open for as long as I've been born and serves traditional authentic Chinese food. I no longer live in Houston, but this is the first place I go to when I travel down. The parking is extremely easy to find, and the ambiance feels like you're sitting in a little home being served by your elders. When coming here, I always splurge out and get both the hot and sour soup & won ton soup. You can never go wrong with the general TSO especially during the lunch special promo. The one thing you just get is the butter garlic chicken wings! I haven't found anywhere else that can even compete with the wings here. They're juicy, flavorful, and fragrant. They do take a good 20 minutes to make, but worth the wait!

Staff attentive without being over a bother. Eating area is dim and clean. Not too cold and yet, not hot eitherFood. Had the bbqpork and eggroll vermicelli bowl. I like my fish sauce a little stronger, but still this one had a good flavor. Bbq pork was very good, and the egg rolls were crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. Plus the eggrolls were precut, some places wont do that, but will bring you a knife lol (thats a pet peeve of mine) I've actually been coming here for YEARS - but only a few times a year - as I travel for work. But when in the area during lunch/dinner times. I always hit this place.

I'd like to play a game called Age Yourself Without Using Numbers.King Food Chinese Restaurant has been around since at least when cassettes and big hair were all the rage. Personally, I can recall how some visits to JSC with out-of-town friends or family eons ago included lunch here. And when I had an apartment right on Bay Area as a young adult pursing a journalism undergrad, I used to treat UH-Clear Lake classmates here.A mishap with trying to buy tickets to a local culinary event this evening led me back to this longstanding eatery. Since it was me, the owner and a female relative of hers, and this couple, the restaurant was quiet save for Boyce Avenue being streamed over a flat screen near the front entrance. Finding a seat and being quickly tended to were a cinch."Yeah, yeah, yeah! What did you have, John?"So before coming here, I took a quick look at the menu online and the combination platter caught my attention. I worked on the spicy tangy chicken combo platter, which resembled either Mongolian or kung pao chicken. The menu was an easy A from how it was put together to how it tasted. If only the entrée-to-rice ratio was even. The chicken was fresh and tasty, but there was more of it than the rice. Still, I recommend this item to any first-timers.Ooh, almost forgot. The combination platters come with fried rice, an egg roll, and your pick between hot and sour, wonton, and egg drop soups. I went with what I call my ol' reliable of Chinese restaurant soups, hot and sour. It was nice of the purported owner of the eatery to give me the bowl with a whole Sriracha bottle. I really enjoyed the soup, which was called for given the cold weather. Their beef spring rolls are an ideal meal starter as well.Since the restaurant is just down the road from NASA, it has seen its share of astronauts come through pre or post-launch. In fact, I remember when they had autographed pictures of some on display at the service counter. Only time will tell if King Food will another numerous amount of years. Obviously, it fared well at the peak of COVID-19 so I don't doubt it a bit.Dinner was winding down when this family of give or take five or six came in. They sat a few tables away from me. I heard the parents ask one of the boys of their thoughts on their meal. The kid supposedly said something to the effect of five stars. To paraphrase the mom, "You should put that on Yelp." I couldn't help but crack a smile. I'm way ahead of him, ma'am.

Come here pretty often as my doctor appts are nearby. Consistency good food. Sometimes the prep is different than Im used to but its always good. The Vietnamese spring rolls are a must! Wonton soup is delish, broth is very flavorful. Rice is done just right. Service is efficient. Older restaurant been around while - reminiscent of ones I frequented as a teenager where the food and prices are good!
