Egg Roll King 7.7
Glassell Park
Vibes: Cheap Eats Budget Brilliance Quick Bites Champions Comfort Food Classics Solo Dining Sanctuaries
A long-running Glassell Park/Cypress Park takeout counter that stays in its lane: big portions, fast pickup, and familiar Chinese-American staples. The cooking is straightforward but dependable, with crunchy fried items and saucy mains that hit best fresh off the wok. Come here for a reliable neighborhood fix rather than a destination-style meal.
