Chinese Classics to Build-Your-Own Mexican Bowls
A three-stop route moves from Bronx combination plates to Staten Island staples and Brooklyn burritos, tacos, and salads. Expect quick preparation at one venue, divided feedback at another, plus ingredient shortages and small portions on Kings Highway.
Three Borough Food Stops
East 174th Street Timing
China House serves lunch and dinner for a loyal Bronx following, with online ordering plus pickup and delivery. The number 17 combination includes a choice of soup or an egg roll and costs around fifteen dollars. Three-person orders take about 11 minutes to prepare, a useful benchmark for a planned stop. Tuesday through Sunday hours run from 11:00 AM to 10:45 PM. On Monday, service starts at 3:00 PM and ends at 9:45 PM.
Weekend Table Access
China King gives this Staten Island stop several ways to order, including online ordering, takeout, dine-in service, and free delivery. Beer and wine are available for meals inside. Lunch prices sit in the inexpensive tier, while reviews divide over hard rice and burnt chicken wings. Boneless chicken earns some praise. Tuesday through Thursday service runs 10:30 AM to 10:00 PM, with closing extended to 11:00 PM Friday and Saturday.
Brooklyn Counter Conditions
At 1325 Kings Hwy, this fast-casual Mexican restaurant lets customers customize burritos, bowls, and tacos, while salads and quesadillas are also listed. Online ordering is available, and the price tier is inexpensive. Hours run from 10:45 AM to 11:00 PM every day. Visitor reports cite frequent ingredient shortages and consistently small portion sizes. Inside, uncleaned tables and empty beverage stations can make dine-in less appealing. Review available ingredients before ordering, especially when a specific filling matters.
