What foodyDavey doesn't like about Monkey King Express:
We placed an order online, got full confirmation but they had no knowledge of it. They didn't make much of an effort to find it even though there was obviously an order number missing in their order sequence. They were in no rush to rectify the error, I had to suggest the solution was probably to place the order over the counter there and then! Food took a very long time to arrive and when we got it home the meat dis... View all feedback. What Yvonne M likes about Monkey King Express:
Reluctant to try because there are very few chinese food restaurants in area and the ones that exists are not good. These are new owners so gave it a shot. Food was good and tasted fresh. I would order again. Not a place to bring company for a sit down dinner. This is more of a take out restaurant. View all feedback.

Honestly not a huge fan But the prices didn't match up with the quality (or quantity) of food.

Friendly staff, average Chinese Food. Poor location not worth going out of your way for. Fair price .

Located in Mill Bay, Monkey King Express offers a variety of Chinese food for take-out. However, recent online ordering experiences have left some customers frustrated due to discrepancies between the website opening times and actual operating hours. Despite this, the food quality has received mixed reviews, with some noting that the dishes were average and overpriced. Others have pointed out that the flavors lack authenticity and that certain menu items taste off. However, new owners have revitalized the restaurant, with customers praising the fresh and tasty food, especially dishes like salt and pepper squid and Shanghai noodles. Overall, Monkey King Express seems to have had its ups and downs but is now on an upward trajectory, delighting customers with improved food quality and service.
