Planning a dim sum run and want to check King Chef menu prices first? This guide walks through current pricing straight from King Chef’s official online menu, so you know what to expect whether you’re ordering a quick siomai fix or feeding a whole family.
King Chef is a Cantonese dim sum and noodle house with multiple branches across Metro Manila, known for the perpetual lines outside its Banawe flagship and a menu built almost entirely around individually priced dim sum, rice toppings, and roasted items rather than fixed set meals. It’s the kind of place regulars order from item by item, building their own combination of steamed dumplings, rice, and roasted meats rather than picking from a short combo list.

About King Chef Philippines
King Chef built its reputation from its original Banawe, Quezon City location, which has long been known for consistent lines during peak dim sum hours a sign of local loyalty more than a novelty rush. The restaurant has since expanded into a small chain with branches across Metro Manila, including West Avenue, SM Center Shaw Boulevard, Ayala Malls Manila Bay, Lucky Chinatown Mall in Binondo, and Alphaland Makati Place, positioning itself as an accessible Cantonese dim sum destination rather than a single-location institution.
The menu leans heavily into traditional Cantonese dim sum steamed dumplings, siopao, and rice toppings alongside Hong Kong-style roasted meats and noodle soups. It’s built for à la carte ordering rather than fixed set meals, which means the final bill depends heavily on how many small plates a table decides to share.
Popular Items To Try
- Hakaw — the classic shrimp dumpling that’s a dim sum menu standard, frequently mentioned alongside siomai as a go-to order.
- Chicken Feet — repeatedly cited by reviewers as a standout, prepared tender with a sweet-savory sauce.
- Yang Chow Fried Rice — a recurring recommendation across reviews and a reliable order if you want something more filling than dim sum alone.
- Buchi — a favorite for dessert-leaning orders, sesame-coated and commonly paired with savory dim sum.
- Barbecued Pork Asado — the standout from the HK-style roasted section, often ordered as a shareable centerpiece.
Deals, Promos, and Discounts
King Chef doesn’t appear to run a standing nationwide promo beyond its regular à la carte pricing, though it does offer Party Platters, Packed Feasts, and Cater Trays designed for group orders and celebrations, which can work out more efficiently than ordering many individual dim sum plates. For any current seasonal promos or branch-specific deals, it’s best to check King Chef’s official Facebook page or the specific branch you’re planning to visit.
Price and Value for Money
King Chef sits in accessible, mid-range territory for Cantonese dim sum in Metro Manila most dim sum items fall between ₱110 and ₱210, and rice toppings mostly range from ₱290 to ₱400, putting a full meal for two well within budget-friendly territory. Reviewers commonly cite per-person costs around ₱500–₱1,000, which tracks with ordering a handful of dim sum plates plus a rice or noodle dish per person. Given the consistent draw and long lines at the original branch, the value proposition holds up well against similarly priced Chinese restaurants in the same neighborhoods.
What Regulars Order
Ask around the Banawe area and King Chef comes up as a near-automatic answer for dim sum, and the ordering pattern tends to be fairly consistent: a round of hakaw and siomai to start, chicken feet for those who like it, and either Yang Chow fried rice or a noodle soup to round out the table. What stands out in reviews isn’t any single dish so much as the speed and consistency of service multiple accounts specifically mention servers moving quickly and accurately even when the restaurant is packed, which matters given how often the branches report long queues during lunch hours.
The other pattern worth noting is how often King Chef gets used for informal food crawls or quick group meals rather than sit-down, linger-over-tea dining the pacing and menu format (small, individually priced items) lend themselves to fast turnover, which fits the reputation the Banawe branch has built as a reliably busy, no-frills dim sum stop rather than a leisurely dining destination.
Dining Experience and Service
King Chef offers dine-in, takeout, and delivery across its branches, with same-day delivery available for orders placed between 9 AM and 7 PM through the official website. The dining experience is generally fast-paced and casual, well-suited to groups and families, though the original Banawe branch is known for peak-hour queues, so arriving outside typical lunch and dinner rushes can mean a shorter wait.
