Hong Kong Chinese Restaurant

Since moving to Delco just over six years ago, there has been a part of me that is slightly disappointed. This isn't because of a lack of good Chinese places to eat, but because after living in Philly for many years before that, I have come to expect a certain something when I am looking for a quick and easy pick up from a corner store Chinese food joint that simple doesn't seem to exist down here. Well, apparently, that wait has finally ended for me, and I couldn't be more pleased.I'm not entirely sure how this place was overlooked by myself and my family for six years, but Hong Kong checks all the right boxes, and now that I know it's there, tucked away in a faded and overgrown strip mall on Chester Pike, it will be in heavy rotation. The secret to corner store Chinese food isn't a heavy variety, volume of food, or even that the staff is friendly. All that helps, but the real value and charm from places like these comes from the core selection of dishes that they do, they execute perfectly; full of flavor, served piping hot, at a great price, time after time, at a wide range of hours during the day.Deciding to go with lunch specials, which were very reasonable, each comes with a soup and a pretty hefty portion of your choice of dish, served with either pork fried rice or pork loin mein. My wife went with her staple test meal of General Tzo's chicken and Wonton Soup. She said both impressed, and while I enjoy those, they're not my go-to. However, they were delicious. I instead chose the Szechuan Chicken with lo mein and also the egg drop soup. This is where I knew I had finally found the place that we had been searching for, for so long. The egg drop soup is perfect....and I mean perfect. It is delicious, with great consistency, and at the same time, is no frills, and you can see that it is clearly made by hand. Nothing from a bag here! The only reason Hong Kong has lost a star is because what I received was definitely what I would have called Hunan chicken. Finished in a spicy brown sauce, rather than a traditional red pepper Szechuan sauce, it was still absolutely delicious and hot, perfectly cooked with a great ratio of chicken to vegetables!If you are in the area, especially if you live nearby, do not skip on Hong Kong Chinese. It may not look like much. You may not be greeted on the phone that well, and I'm pretty sure you have to pay in cash. But sometimes that's exactly what you're looking for and what you want when all you really need is perfectly prepared quick Chinese for a great price that will make your stomach happy and make you smile with satisfaction.

Their food is very good . I have been getting my food there for years. But lately I have been having problems with the people who deliver the food. First time, the guy grabbed the food back from me, stating I didn't pay for order. He calls back and they lady told him it had been paid. About a month later, same situation. They need to put on bags that the food has been paid for. Their food is the best but don't order.

10/10 Chinese food. Been going here for years over all quality is good and staff is very nice.

My favorite Chinese food near my job. It is a typical urban Chinese food store but the food is majority of the time very good. The only negative is sometimes the shrimp is over cooked in the shrimp and broccoli. They make large amounts of chicken pretty good too.

Prices are high, but good foodPrices were less before covid 19. Taking advantageof people

Good local take out place. It appears to be a small family restaurant. The food is always fresh and hot. Fast service and the prices are reasonable. I have enjoyed everything I've gotten to date.

The food here is not good!!! I ordered beef egg foo young that was tasteless! Chicken with garlic sauce was nothing but a tiny bit of chicken, ONIONS AND GREEN PEPPERS!!! It was awful!!!! Should have taken it back. But I'm sure they wouldn't compensate me for my time and gas!!! Needless to say I will never return to this place. The fried chicken was greasy and so was the pork fried rice. My family of four picked over this meal. To add to this, the service could have been better. The person who took my order was preoccupied and short with me. I should have just turned around and took my business elsewhere!!!!!! Consumers beware. If you don't trust my review. At least open your bag and inspect the food prior to leaving the store. Maybe that's why they staple the bag!!!

On a layover at Philadelphia airport Marriott, I ordered from Hong Kong Chinese The food was tasty, the lady who took my order made sure that the plates and sauces requested were sent with food; within the timeframe promised. Thanks to HKCR.

The only Chinese food place I eat from around the area. Food is always consistent and good.

Absolutely delicious. This is my go to place for Chinese food. I wish I lived closer. I just moved but I still make the trip here to get food. The places near me don't even come close to Hong Kong. I recommend the General Tsao Chicken and Sweet and Sour Chicken. They are cooked to perfection.
