Egg Roll King

I love this “greasy chopstick”. Reminds me of New York Chinese food. Everything is good. It’s all fresh and tasty, but the place is a dive——as all authentic Vietnamese, Thai or Chinese food should be! I’m a fan. Beats anything Asian food in Chico.

I'm 41 years old and this place has been here since I can remember. I grew up eating this stuff and it was always quality, it still is. The only critique I could give this place would be to replace their speaker system which allows them to talk to the people coming through the drive-thru, that thing has been so bad for so long it's time they upgrade.

Great portions! Great food! Great prices! A drive through! Great after a long day of work, or whatever occasion. Really great pho! Along with everything else, I was just personally surprised they had pho. Hidden gem I hope everyone goes and keeps this place alive.

This place isnt going to wow you in any way other than the food, I get the Hunan Chicken and the Chow Fun combo plate, they are made hot to order and $25 feeds 4 people

Best comfort Chinese food in Chico. They wait to put the sauce when you order so it isn’t all soggy when you pick up. Pretty decent pho for a drive through place too!

My family loves this place! The dry braised chicken and pork fried rice are so good that I usually order an entire to go container of dry braised chicken and they only charge $23 which is a really good deal considering they pack it full and we have leftovers for a few days. We also order a whole container or two of the pork fried rice cause I could eat that for breakfast lunch and dinner it never gets old I could live off of it lol there has been a time or two that the food was just okay but everyone has their off days they’re human completely understandable. I’ve been buying from this place for years and years it’s been a hit almost every time.

THE FOOD IS DELICIOUS. deffently and underrated place. It's ran by 2 elderly people so that food was crazy flavorful. Huge portions which I love with cheap prices. Love love love. My new favorite spot.

I have never ate here until last week. I was craving house chow mein and the places I normally go were closed. So I was passing by here and said what the heck. A few people I know use to go. And I got to tell you it was pretty good. S better price and large portions

Great place for good food. Service is spotty, but the food is worth it. Good people but sometimes there's a language barrier. They try to take care of you.

The food was really good, we had during and pork-fried rice so nothing too fancy, but they have a very large menu. The food was reasonably priced and we got alot of it for the money. There is a drive thru, which is convenient for late-night runs when you don't want to dine-in. Not sure what the dining area is like. It is cheaper than fast food and tastes way better, so drive past the McDonald's, Egg Roll King is right behind.

I've been eating here for over 30 years and it's been nothing but consistent. This is THE authentic Asian American restaurant experience. Small business owned, straight to the point service, grandma working in the back, dingy atmosphere, and amazing food with huge portions. The house chow mein here is the best chow mein I've ever had.

Best general's chicken I've had in a while. Will have to stop in again. Wish they were open more late. I also wish they did not use styrofoam containers for super hot food as this leeches harmful chemicals into your food

The food is pretty good, great that they have a drive thru. The staff/owners are pretty no nonsense, not mean or rude, just very straight forward. The kitchen looks pretty clean, but the decor is a bit dated. Not sure what this building used to be, but it was definitely fast food and they haven't changed much in the 9 years I've lived in Chico. Give it a try for some quick Chinese food, they have the usual stuff on the menu. Rice could use more soy sauce, but the orange chicken and sweet and sour pork are delicious go to's.

Egg rolls are the BEST but use to be significantly bigger. They give you a good amount of food.. I try to bring cash since they charge extra for cards. Really awesome pho. May have to wait (depending on what you order) but worth the wait!!

Food is amazing. They could improve on their customer service but some say its worth it. Chinese food authentic as it gets. Their portion size is friendly and most of the stuff in their menu is delicious. Best chow mein I've had as well.

I love this place they have great food I usually get the shrimp egg rolls and the garlic fried chicken wings the only problem is the wait time is so long I waited in the Drive-Thru for about 20 minutes but it was worth it. The is always piping hot.

Great pho!! Food has always been fresh although we come with extra time because of them cooking everything fresh obviously it takes a little longer. We don't mind. Could use a little nicer decor or extra cleaning

Really good food at good prices. The staff could be friendlier but still a regular eating spot for me. The vegetarian egg rolls are superb and a good value at only $1.50 each.

Just the right amount of spice and smoke on my favorite dishes of Kung Poa shrimp and eggplant in spicy garlic sauce. Dumplings are great too. The drive through could us an update but service is still timely, you might need to say hello to get noticed when it is busy.

I order shrimp egg roll. They were good and made fast. The sparragus chicken 1st time I have was delicious. 😋 come and dine in. No regrets! Soda, water or soft drinks. Plenty space to park.

Really good food. One lady seems to always be cranky, but the old lady is always super friendly. I guess the one cancels the other out. haha

I've been coming here for years. I love the taste of the food. Very good. The place is super dirty-a hole in the wall for sure. I overlook it for the taste of the food. I would like the community to know that each time I go I am overcharged. The owner tells me a price without using the register and he overcharges .50-1.00 every time. Is this happening to you too? Please be aware of this. Do the math beforehand.

Food is pretty good. Service is kind whack

It took over 20 minutes just to get to taking my order. Still had to wait another 20 minutes until I got my order. There were only 2 cars in front of me. The drive-thru takes forever. It's convenient not to get out of the car, but the food is not that impressionable.

Id say the best thing I have ever ordered here is the Chicken Teriyaki Bowl. The dish was very well packaged and delish. I believe the prices are worth it based on portion size and quality of the food. However, I have a few complaints though... I ordered the "Fried Crab Meat and Cheese Wontons" and got over cooked wontons. Edges were dry and almost like they were microwaved. The food is mostly fresh so be prepared to wait (Longest I waited was 35mins but it was slammed about 5pm on a tuesday). Lastly, it was very difficult to hear through the drive through speaker box. Overall a good experience. Thank you Egg Roll King I will come back for another visit soon. :)

I love the food and inexpensive prices. The staff is rude as they can be. They always have been. It's like a Chico tradition. If you didn't know it, it might be a bit alarming, she is very very rude. Just don't make small talk, speak clearly if orderimg at the drive thru speaker box but don't expect her to speak clearly to you because you wouldn't be able to hear her thru that distorted old thing. The decor is very very old and dated. The fish tank has needed to be cleaned for the last 50 years. It's pretty warm inside on the summer days but they have a very good rating from the health inspector, it is very clean in there. You can see thst they really keep everything very tidy it's just old, dated and rude. The cheap, delicious food and prompt fast service really makes up for it tho.

Not an attractive place so I use the drive through. The Pho is the best in town! Never had any complaint with the quality, taste or quantity of the foods. Love the drive through feature as well.

good but not the wonton soup

I don't often go to places that are just okay. I just don't have anything glaringly bad or great to say here but I'll go over what I had. The fried rice was decent, with chunks of chicken, which was a huge surprise, but could have used more seasoning. They went huge and easy on the peas, which was nice. The pot stickers were fluffy and good but no sauce! That's okay though, I can make my own when I get them home. The the sweet and sour pork was pretty tasty but there was something off and I'll get to that when I get to the chow mein. The egg fu Yung was generous, but unfortunately the gravy on it was not. Still, good quality. The chow mein was where I noticed something off. It was a bitter, chemical taste and it was in everything just a bit. My guess is that, in order to save costs, they use canola oil instead of peanut or vegetable (soybean). It didn't ruin it for me but it wasn't a benefit. Overall it was fine, but nothing incredible, except... The foil wrapped chicken was absolutely delicious. I would go back just for that. A rich, savory sauce that permeates the chicken thighs, they were the star of the show by far. As others have mentioned, there's a bit of a language barrier but the order came out fine regardless. No napkins unless we asked though.v My only suggestions for the owners? Upgrade to peanut oil and bump the prices up like $0.50 to compensate. A bit of oyster sauce really helps deepen the fried rice flavor but that's just my preference. The low score for atmosphere can't be helped. It's a covered fast food building, so it will always have hard seats and just have that aire. Overall, will probably go back just for the foil wrapped chicken and pot stickers.

Well it's kind of a mixed story. I was going to my favorite buffet around the corner( that is closed on Monday 🙄) And I've drove passed this place for years and never stopped in because it looks iffy from the outside. (See pics) The parking is oddly structured, the building itself has been remodeled several times poorly but it was clean inside. It's fortunate for new customers that the menu (see pic) is numbered because the place is ran by a elderly family or 2 couples with poor English skills. Yeah the service was slow but the food was good and plenty. I had one of my Asian favorites, Garlic Eggplant with rice, good but not over the top. They have a standard extensive Asian menu, lots of choices, and reasonably priced but looking back the man that took my order never used a register nor gave a receipt just rattled of a price off the top of his head and I don't think it matched the posted prices. Not cool... Ya can't get 5 stars if you short your customers, lack atmosphere and service but good food will get steady local traffic.

Decent food. Light on the protein and veggies. Lots of fried rice and noodley chow mein. Drive- through convenience when I was in a hurry.

This just wasn't the best experience I thought maybe owned by same person in Red Bluff nope those people are way more friendly and kind. Service just not friendly very closed off, no smiles just not my kind of place for a very comfortable feeling and food wasn't that good

Just ordered. There was a strand of hair in the dish. The customer service was alright. The wait was expected, considering the fact that they started making the dishes once ordered. I had better chinese food. The beef broccoli was gross and also had a weird smell. The food overall was disappointing and some was just gross.

Beef and Broccoli was all broccoli and very little if any beef. Kung pow chicken was a giant zucchini, cut up with lots of peanuts and very little chicken maybe a handful of tiny pieces.. fried food tasted stale. Crab Rangoon was gross on inside and tasted like it was fried yesterday and nuked for my order to warm. Rice tasted like yesterdays for sure. Egg rolls tasted old too. First time trying and disappointed. Way too expensive and not hungry enough to eat. Sadly, I won’t be back. $31 down the drain. 🥴

This used to be a childhood favorite of mine but the quality of what I used to love getting there has drifted pretty far from what it used to be. However, they at least sell cream cheese wontons for maybe the lowest price in town currently, and fill them very generously compared to anywhere else, although the ones I ordered today were slightly burnt. They're also – to my pleasant surprise – put into paper bags for to-go orders, and not into a styrofoam containers like most of the other stuff they sell.

food is decent. i dont mind eating here. its the service they have to work on. its terrible. you wait 10 min. before getting helped/ order food. then you have to wait another 20 for the food. all they got to do is work on having better service then maybe I will give them a better rating

The wait was absolutely horrible, they didn't even know we were at the speaker to order. All the cars were honking to get their attention. As well as them being rude while we were trying to order. At the drive through window you can see through the window how nasty the kitchen is inside. I will never go back. Absolutely do NOT recommend this place!

Really gross food, the guys is a dam freaking jerk and is so mean and rude. Will not ever go here again and if anyone want to go here and eat really gross food and have experience a really bad customer service be my guess

This place is horrible. I can't believe it's still open. It's bad enough that the food is sub-par. But the bathroom looks like a murder room and has urine and feces on the walls and floor. (It looks like it hasn't been cleaned in years). The dining room works to eat a quick meal, but the horrible service and rudeness from the employees makes it an easy decision to never eat there again.

Rude and ungrateful didn't get a receipt, wasn't able to talk to anybody about anything.Tip them a $5 bill thinking maybe they were just having a bad day, didn't get a thank you, money got shoved in a back pocket, she walked away. Foods gross
