Hiep Phong BBQ

Went there yesterday for some Thanksgiving roasted porks. Terrible food handling. All employees handle the food with bare hands. The old man chops the meats and use his bare hands putting the meats into the containers while another man wiped his hands to a dirty towel and then use those hands to touch the meats. Never come back again. Gross!

We purchase roasted duck and roasted pork here before. It was great. This review is for the recent purchase; the meat was old and roasted but it does not make the old meat taste go away. We ended up throwing out all the meat and only eat the veggie we stir fried with.

Had the BBQ and roasted pork. Both were good but I had better. I got it in the afternoon around 2pm so it not that fresh. I didn’t expect it to be.

Finally able to catch these guys when they are open to try their BBQ. Came here around noon on a Saturday and all their meats were hanging on the rack. Now super exited, I couldn’t help my self so I ordered some roasted pork, roast duck and BBQ pork aka Xa Xiu. Just for FYI, you can’t sit down and eat in here, you have to buy it by the pound and take it home. As the meats are being chopped up and prepared to go, I noticed that they also sell other snacks such as sweet buns, egg rolls, and related Asian groceries that I didn’t bother to look at because I was eyeing their BBQ meats the whole time. A quick look at their prices (see attached) is about the same as other places however, the main difference is the older grandfather behind the counter preparing the meats is super nice and friendly. Anyways enough small talk, the BBQ meats here are amazing. GOLLY, the pork and duck were so damn good that I just couldn’t stop eating it. Both the pork and duck were tender and juicy. The skin on the roast pork was amazingly crispy and the duck was just outstanding. Maybe, I’m exaggerating a bit but it was how I felt when I tried it and I’m sure you will feel the same too. Hiep Phong is a bit away from where I live but I don’t care, I will be a regular here.

Very good Chinese BBQ in the Dallas area. The roast pork was juicy and the skin was crunchy. Prices are reasonable considering how much some places have raised theirs. As a heads up, don’t be shy about making sure what you order is what actually gets placed in the to-go box.
