Hong Kong

I've ordered from the Pasadena Hong Kong for a long time. Love their,chicken in black bean sauce and then the vegetables in garlic sauce. Tonight i ordered the chicken, which was ok, and the Mongolian beef. I had a hard time eating it. Perhaps they had a new chef, who knows, but the beef, vegetables and sauce were so sweet, like someone through a cup of sugar in it. I couldn't eat it.

I love Hong Kong, won't stop ordering from them, but next time, I'll make sure to talk to the chef first.

Our first order here was a large one and it was very unfortunate for us. The pork was dry and tough, the shrimp soft and mushy. The egg rolls had been left in the fryer for way too long and were difficult to chew through and the lo mein was sweet. We usually give places a second chance but absolutely would not in this case.

We were pleasantly surprised. We've had a bunch of bad local Chinese take-out since moving here a few years ago.

Since COVID-19, we've been trying to find some new local places to do take-out at least once a week - and Hong Kong came up about 6 minutes from our house.

We called in an order from the menu posted on their Yelp reviews (thank you, Yelpers!). The woman took the order, confirmed everything, told us the cost and how long it would take.

We were quoted 20 minutes, and I headed in for pickup a few minutes before that time, and they were just finishing the order.

The place is tucked into the corner of a small shopping center and isn't very big or much to look at. It appears that they have recently installed a tall plexiglass wall, with a small sliding door, that stretches the length of the counter.

Staff was wearing masks, asked my phone number and handed me my order all bundled up in a brown paper bag.

We each got an order of Steamed Dumplings ($5.35). There were eight large homemade dumplings, perfectly cooked and filled with a meaty filling. They were delicious!

I ordered a large Shrimp Mei Fun ($8.50). I received a takeout container packed with thin noodles, plenty of shredded cabbage, carrots, and sliced onion - and WAY MORE shrimp than I expected for the price. It was flavorful with plenty of garlic and ginger.

My husband ordered General Tso's Chicken Combination ($8.35). The Pork Egg Roll was crunchy, not greasy, and had plenty of filling. General Tso's Chicken was moist; the sauce had a nice bite to it. He requested White Rice instead of Pork Fried Rice, and it was fresh and light.

We were impressed with the service, the amount, quality, and price of the food - this might just be our go-to for takeout Chinese food.

Worst Chinese food I have ever ate.. the "yellow" fried rice was horrible. I wish I would have read the reviews before I wasted my money. Lesson learned!

After craving dumplings and sweet and sour chicken all morning, I read some reviews and chose to order with them via beyondmenu.com for lunch. After about 10 minutes I called to confirm the order had been received and they told me yes and that my food was ready as well. I arrived about 20 minutes later to find the business closed by the health department and no one inside despite speaking to someone earlier. I called Beyond Menu and was immediately connected to someone without a hold, they cancelled my order and refunded the charges (they are awesome, five star!). Extremely disappointing and concerning, that not only was I nearly scammed but also that they've had enough infractions with the health department to get shut down in broad daylight.

I order from here every so often, usually from UberEats and have generally enjoyed my orders. Today, I ordered sweet and sour chicken with white rice (for delivery). Everything smelled and looked good when I opened it -- until I was about 3 bites in and found an ANT or some other small type insect in my rice.
I submitted the issue on UberEats and for transparency am posting here as well. Really disappointed.

Great hole in the wall Chinese!

I get the orange chicken with fried rice and egg drop soup! It's amazing and so cheap!

Not to mention they are fast, we walked in and placed our order and under ten minutes it was ready and piping hot!

I just read a review explaining the the order was wrong and, when they called to let them know, they were asked to return the order and they would replace it. The review was bad but the restaurant business is FULL of people who scam. If you want your order recooked, you have to return what was wrong. The restaurant is NOT going to reuse your order - they need it back because anyone can call and say their food was wrong and get another order otherwise. I think it's unfair to make the remarks made in the review. I went there yesterday. The food was GREAT, the prices were good, and the staff was very nice. They also offer items that aren't always available on a takeout menu.

I noticed that the kitchen was SPOTLESS! It was the cleanest Chinese takeout I have ever seen and run by all young people who obviously knew what they were doing! I'll be back--maybe even tonight!

Who makes Chinese Fried Rice with YELLOW RICE?!! This place. It was first time and last time. Such a waste of money.
