Customer Review Summary
Gluten-free handling is the draw reviewers raise most. Several describe staff who know which dishes are gluten free or can be made so. One celiac customer says they have eaten here many times without issue, and a group with two gluten allergies found the person taking their phone order clearly knowledgeable about cross contamination. Beyond that, reviewers praise food that is hot and well cooked, with sweet and sour pekin style chicken named as a regular order, and several call the prices good. Staff come across as friendly, chatty, and helpful, and a few say they have ordered here for years. The criticism is limited but specific. One reviewer found the black bean sauce dish and the prawn with vegetables bland and said the spring rolls did not taste good, so they will not return. Another, a longtime customer, reported a dissatisfying evening with the food after many good visits. Even so, the celiac reviewer's many safe meals are the detail that recurs.

“Got food from here, two members of our group have gluten allergies and needed it to be gluten free. Kings Chinese did a great job, clearly knowledgable over the phone taking our order, and food delicious! Also incredible value”
- Abigail Feeley
“Very knowledgeable and lovely staff, clued up on what on the menu is gluten free or can be made gluten free. I am celiac and have eaten here many times without issue. I usually go for the sweet and sour pekin style chicken and the Singapore noodles without the curry powder. The duck dishes are also delicious. Always my go to when I’m craving a Chinese. Great place to go if you are celiac as usually we can’t have Chinese takeaway.”

“Best Chinese in the area, sad their dine-in restaurant (Jade Cottage) closed but glad we can still get takeaway. The man who works there is always very nice and chatty”
