Very good BBQ pork and Roasted Duck. For me, the balance between lean meat and fat was perfect.
The soy sauce has a special favor as well, sweet and salty. Love it.
(I had better Cantonese BBQ in Hong Kong, but I think this place is the best in Seattle.)
Parking is not that difficult in Chinatown. I managed to find a spot nearby in Saturday afternoon.
Roast duck was very juicy and tasty, and the skin on roast pork was crispy while meat was tender and juicy. I also ordered BBQ pork and sausages, both were pretty good just not amazed.
The chefs were super kind. They explained and introduced different items patiently. Also, I was able to use my own containers :)
It’s cash only tho, a heads-up for those who don’t usually bring cash with them.
Overall, it was a pleasant experience ordering to-go from King’s Barbecue House and I will for sure go back for their Cantonese barbecue again.
Probably the best duck that you can get on this side of the Pacific ocean!
I've been eating here since 2012 and keep coming back for all that goodness.
It is a simple restaurant with no seating and no real amenities except for the fallen angels making the food.
I always get the duck and rice combo. They also have a couple other options but make sure they dump some duck fat on top of the rice for that extra flavor!
For holidays, if you bring them a frozen turkey the days before you want it, they'll prepare and cook it for you.
Got the crispy roast duck, soy sauce chicken, and bbq lunch boxes. Don't know how they make the soy sauce so yummy. I'll be back for take out when I have a too-short lunch break.
The hand-written menu on the wall is the original from when they opened 30+ years ago.
Oh ya, cash only.
Great spot for Chinese BBQ. Cheap lunch box combo. Very friendly old couple running the shop. Cash only
I had the lunch special with pork ribs, it was quite tasty and reasonably priced.
My family has been going here for over 20 years and they are consistently good. We always go for the roasted duck, char siu, and crispy roasted pork belly. Prices are fair as well.
The duck here is one of the top reasons why I can't become a vegetarian, lol. So flavorful, comes with lovely sauce/juice on the side, you can get a large amount for an excellent price, and you have the option to get fresh rice with it for a tiny bit extra. This spot and its friendly service has never disappointed me. They also remember regulars well and what they like, which is nice. Keep in mind it's cash-only!
I have been coming here for over 20+ years whenever I get the chance. I live in the south end, Tacoma/Auburn area. I have tried the roasted duck from the Hong Kong markets, 99 ranch market, and a few other places. Those places don't even come close to King's BBQ. Whenever I go there, I usually get the roasted duck, curry squid, duck wings, and BBQ ribs. Even though gas prices is skyrocketing, it's worth every penny I spent on gas to come here.
I love the roast duck, pork belly, and salted chicken here. I love the lady who rings me up and the gentleman who chops the meat. They're cash only.
If you want to pick up a really delicious roast duck for a reasonable price this is the place to go. It's pretty typical as far as this type of shop goes the front is open and the duck and everything else that they cook is right there in the window. These are the types of shops I've seen both in the Philippines and also in Hawaii. The food is fresh and upfront and they don't really hide anything it's right there on your face so to speak. They also make a really delicious soy sauce chicken.
Was it worth it walking throw the toughest parts of Seatlle.....you bet it ducking was!!! Had the duck fantastic HUGE portions. Also got the sausage amazing!!!!
Hustling through China Town looking for a fast bite. I see this shop with old Auntie and Uncle inside and delicious smells wafting out. I get in and out with a big plate of rice and Cha-siu uncle just pulled off the rack and cut up in about 3 min for about 12 bucks. Would absolutely go again.
