Since 1989, one San Jose company has reigned supreme over the egg roll business.

Customers line up for trays of appetizers at the aptly named King Eggroll in the city’s Berryessa district, making it the go-to spot for to-go orders for potlucks and parties.

Now the Tran family, which maintains other locations, has expanded to the west side of Willow Glen.

It’s called King Eggroll Express, but that’s a bit of a misnomer. Unlike the tiny Lundy Avenue location, there are plenty of tables inside — 44 seats — if you want to scarf down the egg rolls, spring rolls, dim sum or combo plates here.

And if you’re running the order back to the office, two parking spots are reserved for takeout customers.

Details: Open 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily, from 9 a.m. Sundays at 1052 Leigh Ave. near Southwest Expressway.
