Hong Kong Snack House
The owner is super sweet! Did you know they've been here 20 years? I know what their secret is. It's authentically yummy Vietnamese street style food! Everything from banh mi, fresh spring rolls, boba tea, to crepes. This is my favorite quick stop when I'm in the neighborhood.
Little hole in the wall Cafe that serves what essentially is asian street food. They have vietnamese sandwiches, Boba drinks, sweet ginger tofu, crepes, egg buble waffle, and some other sweet and savory offerings. You can easily find this shop by following the loud techno/club/dance music they play on the speakers. The workers are really nice and explain what they have to offer and what it is if you don't know. It can get a bit overwhelming if there are lots of people waiting since the menu is so diverse. The entire shop looks like someone just crammed lots of signage and decorations in the tiny space to make it look busier and fuller. I don't even know how the people that work there get behind the counter. Haha. When we came for a weekend late night snack/dessert run at close to 8:40pm there wasn't too many people but within 5 to 10 minutes more people started to come by to buy stuff. We ordered a crepe that had fresh mango pieces, ice cream and whip cream; a crepe with fresh strawberry pieces, ice cream and whip cream; thai iced tea with Boba; and a warm silken tofu with ginger syrup. The mango crepe was delicious and not too sweet. The strawberry crepe was too sweet since they used strawberry jam while the mango crepe had a drizzle of mango syrup. I couldn't taste the Thai ice tea until we got home and ate something salty to counter all that sweet stuff we ate. I didn't even attempt to try the warm silken tofu since I was eating the crepe and I wouldn't have tasted anything anyways. We will be back to try the other stuff they have. Everything looks delicious. Update 10/15/23. Came here for a little treat because of my son's birthday. We noticed that they had signs advertising 20th anniversary buy 2 get 1 free deal. Honestly I don't remember them being there for 20 years but whatever... We ordered Thai teas, fish curry balls, and bubble egg waffles. The Thai teas were good, the curry balls were pretty flavorful and firm with a bit of chewiness but I had to take them off the stick in order to coat them in the curry sauce at the bottom of the tray. The waffles were hot with a good vanilla flavor. They were crunchy on the outside with a chewy mochi like interior. Update 3/9/24. Came here for an after dinner treat and got ourselves some crepes. Super yummy as always and friendly owner. They still have a special buy two get one free deal. We ordered three crepes, and the third was free.
Hong Kong Cafe
Came for lunch and was pleased with the house special chow fun. It had meat (chicken &pork) and lots of different seafood. Some of the seafood could have been seasoned more and by itself it tasted very bland. But overall the portion was adequate and it tasted good. The place was busy at lunch amongst all the other restaurants in the mall which was also a good sign.
Came here for dinner, first time visiting this place even though I've passed by many times since it opened. The place was busy, but there were still a good amount of tables to sit in. I think we only waited a minute, and the waitress sat us down and got us tea all within a couple of minutes. The decoration and atmosphere is casual with a sense that you are in a Hong Kong style restaurant with a large mural of a Hong Kong street with lots of store front signs and neon lights. The decoration is eclectic with an Asian theme with lots of little Asian themed toys and knickknacks. The food menu is extensive with lots of common foods found in street cafes such as toasts, baked rice, and noodles dishes to the more common dishes like fried rice, Chow mien, porridge, etc. Then there is the more oddball and exotic dishes made with intestines, blood, and frogs. As I wasn't into experimenting into the exotic dishes we decided to order BBQ pork fried rice, salt & pepper deep fried fish, salt & pepper deep fried tofu, wonton soup, western style overeasy egg in minced beef sauce over rice, and stir-fry beef rib-eye Japan style. All the dishes came in within the next 10 to 15 minutes. They looked delicious to my eyes and smelled even better. The bbq pork unfortunately did not meet my satisfaction. Yeah, it looked great and smelled good, but the taste was just bland. There wasn't even a taste of the bbq pork. The pork itself was dry, like the remnants of old bbq pork cuttings that have been sitting for a while. Fortunately the other dishes were arriving and we had a better experience. The next dish to come was the wonton soup. The bowl had enough soup and wonton dumplings to serve at least all four of us with a couple extras. There were also fresh baby bok Choi vegetables in the soup, which was nice to balance all the meat. The soup was okay, nothing exciting. The meat filling in the wonton was okay too... I've had better. The next dish up was the salt & pepper tofu cubes. These deep-fried morsels were piping hot with a nice outer crunch and very soft interior. The outside had a really nice seasoning that was savory with a hint of spices. There were also sprinkling of fried jalapeño peppers and garlic. It was delicious. The next dish was the salt & pepper deep fried fish. Just like the tofu, these fish were battered and deep fried and seasoned with salt, spices, and that mixture of jalapeños pepper and fried garlic. The fish was delicious with a semi crunchy outer shell and a very nice soft, smooth, almost melty interior. I'm not sure what type of fish they used, but it was really nice and soft. A minute later, the waitress brought out the rest of our order. It was the overeasy egg in minced beef and sauce over rice and the stir-fry beef rib-eye Japan style. The western style egg in minced beef sauce over rice was truly delicious. It was a mound of rice with a brown gravy sauce with minced beef and shavings of I think it was broccoli stems. In the middle of all that mess was a raw egg cooking in the heat of the dish. The beef and sauce mixed in with the rice was just great. I really can't explain the taste, it was like putting gravy into your rice but the gravy is not over powering. It balanced the right amount of saltiness, beef flavor, and umami to go right with the plain white rice. My favorite dish above all the stir-fry beef ribeye Japan style dish. The pieces of beef are stir fried in a sweet, savory sauce with a very distinctive flavor I couldn't identify. Under the beef are pan fried soft tofu rounds that have the sauce dripping on it. Surrounding the beef and tofu is a bed of fresh broccoli with drippings of sauce on top. This dish was really exceptionally good. The beef was so tender and juicy with the addition of the sauce that it was an explosion of flavor and texture in your mouth. We truly ate really well and had lots of leftover for the next day. I'll probably visit again and try their other dishes. Some of the dishes you can't find in regular Chinese restaurants.
Yen Ching Henrico
Tried this place because of the reviews, have to say was not disappointed with what we ordered. Restaurant is kinda cool inside, the deco if very unique. So we started with the pupu platter because we wanted to try both the Rangoon, shrimp toast which was highly rated and the eggrolls. It also came with chicken wings and some beef on stick as well as short ribs. Wings were ehh as well as the Rangoon. Shrimp toast was great and lived up to its ratings, the short ribs were excellent and the egg rolls tasted very fresh and tasty as well. We shared the generals chicken again based on reviews, it was fantastic.. probably the best of I’ve had since living in Virginia. Be aware that as ordered it is not white meat but we opted for white meat which was $1 up charge but it was worth it! Super tasty! Disappointed in the fried rice side that came with it, the rice tasted a bit old and the texture was definitely off. Lastly the pork Lo Mein.. it was also very enjoyable however I would get it without mushrooms next time it kinda threw off some bites and I feel like it was canned mushrooms vs fresh. All in all I would definitely recommend a stop, staff were friendly food was filling and very tasty. We will come again.
WOW!!! I am traveling and so lucky I found this gem of a place. They have the best fried rice that I've ever had. Their rangoons were also spectacular and prepared my favorite way-- with the best ratio of filing to wrapper!! I got food for pickup, but as soon as I saw how lovely the interior is (great lighting, decor, and a water feature!) I wish I had dined in!! I could see it being a great spot for special occaisons. I wish I had something of this caliber near where I live. I will cherish the memory and look forward to my next visit, whenever that may be!
Jin Ye Restaurant
I get my lunch takeaways from here. Had a craving for eggplant in garlic sauce. Note: their lunch specials include soup and salad only if you EAT IN. I got an egg roll with my special, so I was happy. Food was hot and yummy, enough left for a light bite at dinner.
Wow this good was so good and reasonably priced! We were just passing through and needed some dinner, found this gem of a location. Wish we had good food like this where we live.
Tsing Tao
"I ordered Twice Cooked Pork, Mushroom Tofu, and Eggplant with Szechuan Sauce for takeout this afternoon. I felt strange when I saw the Twice Cooked Pork—it had very little pork and too many vegetables. The pork served was just meat. Normally, Twice Cooked Pork should be made with pork belly, which includes a mix of skin, fat, and meat, but what I received was only lean meat. I didn’t enjoy it, and my wife scolded me for wasting money on this food. The restaurant looks cozy and busy, but I was not satisfied with my order. There were very few mushrooms, or possibly none at all, in the Mushroom Tofu. I asked my wife, and she said there were only a few pieces."
Small, cozy, and clean restaurant. The food was delicious, fresh, and tasty, and the portions were huge! My kids eat all the vegetables and love it! When I am in town, I’ll come back for more!
Daimo Chinese Restaurant
It’s been a while since I’ve had dinner here and it is still as good as I remember! Dinner was so good tonight and excellent service as usual. Not sure what’s up with the negative reviews, but I have been eating here for years and the food is still consistently good and tasty. We always order a variety of different main dishes and they are fresh and taste good. Generous portions.
This place used to be my family's go-to place to eat, my Grandma's favorite, she liked the braised beef noodles. Recently, it looked like this restaurant was under new management or new owners, the quality of the food declined, we noticed this happened after the pandemics probably they loss a chef. Now, even the service was poor under new team of waiters(new faces). My famy and I had a very bad experience on the Mid Autumn dinner.... When we arrived, I was telling the staff that we had a reservation (time, # of people and my name), but actually the staff who had big eyes was not receiving me, she was greeting to someone who seemed to be acquaintant and ignored us, so I repeated again and she said "ok,ok wait a minute", then I head she was speaking to herself but I could clearly hear she was saying "慌死冇得食咩" was a Contanese phrase meant we were afraid there was nothing to eat, and it was very rude to say to someone especially to the customers. I heard it but did not want to raise a scene because it was a holiday. We ordered 6 dishes: 1/2 dozen of steamed oysters on the half shells, 1/2 roasted duck (their very best in the Bay Area), 1/2 crispy chicken, a steamed whole fish (fresh from the fish tank behind us), twin lobsters (special deal that evening), a vegetable stir-fried with salty shrimp sauce. Food came to us fast, the veggies, the oysters, the lobsters, the fish, and then we realized the appetizer roasted duck not yet showed up and we saw the two roasted hanging in the display behind us were all gone and we still hadn't receive our order, also the crispy chicken not yet showed up. The staff brought the chicken but it was steamed chicken that was not our order, soon she realized someone made a mistake on the order and also our 1/2 roasted duck went to the other table. No one was followed up on the remaining of our orders, until we called the staff over asked for the status, the manager (the one who worked behind the counter) came to tell us our roasted duck was cooking. They sold out the roasted ducks in the middle of dinner time and they had to make new batch of roasted ducks (which we believe they were supposed to be for the next day). After we almost finished all the food on our table, the crispy chicken delivered to us with lots of oil on the chips and the meat was dried. Finally the roasted duck came but the skin and the flavor both tasted like they still needed more time, they were rushing to get the ducks out to the rest of the customers and neglected on the quality. We thought the steamed oysters with black beans and garlic sauce was the best dish, however, we all had diarrhea when we got home after the dinner. All the food was fully cooked, except perhaps the oysters were under cooked or they were bad quality, we could not taste them because the black bean and garlic flavors overpowered the flavor of the oysters. So the food was bad, also the service. Unacceptable.
Leong Chinese Restaurant
They shut down the dining in and have carryout only. Almond boneless chicken was good, shrimp rings were great. Only gave them a 4 star rating due to the pork fried rice, wasn't much than just brown rice with a couple tiny pieces of pork . Wonton was also good. I ordered 5 dinners and 2 quarts of soup. They had it ready in 15 minutes and the order wasn't missing anything, prices were also reasonable.
Food was disgusting. Unedible. Hard, dry, no flavor. I was honestly afraid to eat it. Don’t recommend. Don’t waste your money. They wouldn’t refund us either and we just threw it in the garbage. Yuck.
Fu Wah | Chinese Restaurant
Chinese food done right!! Will go out of my way just for their BBQ spare ribs. Great spice on noodles too. Well done. Update: Didn't get food poisoning as someone else described but did have some of the worst gas that my family didn't appreciate. So, at this point, eating here again will just have to be a compromise.
Love their chicken and broccoli. Only thing I wish is that they included soy sauce or duck sauce with their orders. I’ve door dashed fu wah and asked for sauce, and picked up food and had no sauce included. I guess you have to ask.
Yan Jing Restaurant
We made reservations for a party of 10 for 6:45 on the 25th of December. Upon arrival, we where let known the the restaurant was extremely backed up and we would have to wait a while longer. By 7:10 we where seated. We didn't get to have a table together, however to move the process along we the split tables in the same area. So we did all sorta get to sit together anyways. Once seated we where told the food would be slow coming out, but really it came out in a good time considering how busy this restaurant truly was! Everyone working was constantly moving! The manager was kind. The food was absolutely delicious 👌🏼 despite the long wait to be seated when we made reservations this was an absolutely amazing time! Everyone working this night busted their tails. Good job everyone.
Some of the best delivery Chinese I’ve ever had- not too greasy or salty. The spicy is not spicy… and I’m not very spice-tolerant. The chicken lo-mein is delicious and very generous portions. The crab rangoons were some of the best I’ve had.
Happy Family
I ordered delivery through Ubereats, called after placing my order and asked for a fee adjustments. The manager was very nice and said "no problem!" I got my food quickly, it was hot, well prepared, generous portions and super yummy! Egg drop soup Egg rolls Beef with mushrooms Curry Chicken All of it was great!
Really quick service, staff was super nice! Will definitely be going back. I’ve found my chinese takeout location!
Ho Ho Restaurant
Went to pick up a Doordash order so can’t speak on the quality of the food. Order wasn’t very big at all 3 items including a drink. When I first get there I have to wait 10 minutes for service because the lady up front is in the back talking (yes I can hear you from up here). Took another 20 minutes just to get my order as people that would come in after me were actually getting their orders first. Lady was very rude and unprofessional. If the price matches the taste then the wait time is NOWHERE near worth it. Would not recommend.
The food is good but they move way to slow, once waited for a delivery for an hour and fifteen minutes and they are less than a mile away. Waited 30 minutes or more when placing an order for a lunch special in the restaurant. And the wife always snatches your card with wet hands when you go to pay 🤢.
China Taste
So glad I finally stopped in to get a "taste", and it's nice to know there's a respectable takeout place nearby to hit when visiting my mum. Food was ready in no time and the ordering process was a breeze, as the young chap behind the counter was cordial and friendly. My General Tso's Chicken was decent enough. The texture is on point and the sauce is thick and savory, but overall didn't knock my socks off. FORTUNE: "Don't let the past and useless details choke your existence."
Tryed a lunch special for the first time at this establishment. Walking in the building, it looked bland and dated. My food was hot and actually really good. I was surprised and will be back to try another dish.
