Hong Kong Buffet

YUCK! Took 90 minutes to get my order delivered. The rice was crunchy. The general tso’s chicken was mushy. Will NOT be ordering from them ever again.

I am having a similar nightmare to Ben’s. I ordered my food at 6:56. Grub Hub texted me shortly after to let me know that my food would arrive between 7:50 and 8:00. I wondered why they needed so much time but figured whatever. At 7:30 I called to request that chopsticks go along with my order and she said the delivery guy was just leaving. At 8:15 I called to see where my food is and the woman on the other line said that they had 4 or 5 orders come in at once and that he was on his way. It’s now 8:40 and still no food. I am about to call in again and see what the deal is. I am pretty pissed!

I sit here writing this review wondering to myself… wondering where my food could be. You see, the order was put in at 8:30.
The first call after the order was of the understanding that the weather was not perfect. Understandable. I mean, I hate driving in the snow. The order was on it’s way at this point, we’ll call it 9:30ish.
The second call was a little less pleasant. Now we find that the order had never left the store. Now we find that the weather is horrible and there are drivers that didn’t report to work. We ask if the food is coming and complain about the time. 10ish.
The third call… that’s the one that really gets me going. The woman on the phone is LAUGHING. LAUGHING at our plight for still sitting with empty stomachs while our General Tso’s Chicken sat on a dirty counter top just waiting to be delivered. 10:30ish.
The fourth call. Now we are reasonably upset. The woman has promised a call back from a manager that apparently has a schedule that could only be predicted by a vending machine psychic. First he is out, then he is out and will be back later, then it was apparent that the manager would not be back tonight but MIGHT be in tomorrow.
So I sit here… writing this review wondering whether or not the food that was ordered will ever get here. Or if I should just give up on it happening and just cook a frozen pizza…
EIther way, the money better be returned for this EPIC failure.
P. S. Don’t tip before the food even gets there. Mistake… biiiigggggg mistake.

This is a hole in the wall place who has the nicest staff. They are friendly and helpful. The food is OK. We tried the sushi and it was OK. Not grocery store stuff, but not high end either. Most of the fish was on the bland side. Their teas was excellent and I liked that the sushi was not smothered in wasabi, but that the wasabi was on the side. It was relaxing and easy. Nobody trying to be hipster, parking is great, price reasonable. If you are looking for sushi in a friendly place here is the restaurant for you.

Cold food. Slow delivery. Mediocre Chinese.
…won’t get fooled again!

The food taste funny i am not sure what it is. the special fried rice. the shrimp taste old and stale. we have ordered several times from here. it may be just the stuff they deliver that taste bad. i have never dined in. The delivery seems to have got worse over time. once it took the guy 2 hours to get to my place. they are just about 6 to 7 miles away. The guy was like sorry it took me soo long i had lots of other orders to deliver and he did them in order of distance. i was sooo mad. i will never order again from this location

I ordered delivery from here, and I guess maybe my hopes were too high. I got a large vegetable fried rice, a vegetable roll Maki style, mixed vegetables with bean curd, and a can of Sierra Mist. The vegetable roll came in a cute little box with some kind of strong smelling orange thing which I couldn’t identify and a little ball of wasabi, there was also an additional little container of soy sauce to dip the rolls in. The rolls themselves were alright, though not as good as others I’ve tried, if you order it Maki style you get six little rolls. The vegetable fried rice wasn’t bad, but you need to add a ton of soy sauce in my opinion and it was loaded with onions, also I found one little piece of meat in there which bothered me since I am vegetarian, and I ordered the VEGETABLE fried rice for a reason. Even though I found the tiny piece of meat I decided I didn’t want to waste $ 5.35 on the thing and just picked it out and didn’t find anymore. I got the mixed vegetables with bean curd instead of home style bean curd with vegetables which I usually get from other places since it said the home style was spicy, but little did I know that the bean curd would just be flavorless seemingly uncooked lumps of tofu. I had to douse it and all the vegetables with it with soy sauce to make them edible and the texture still wasn’t entirely pleasant. It also came with a small thing of white rice, and some sort of large container full of sauce (?) which I didn’t want to try because I wasn’t sure what was in it. I don’t think I’d order from them again, because I ended up paying $ 22.65(that’s including tip and tax) for a not great meal. The employee I talked to was nice enough and he delivered it faster than expected but the food was definitely not worth it to me. I suppose if you really want Japanese food and don’t want to go out it would be fine, but there’s definitely better places to get Chinese food delivered from.

We ordered from Regions hospital (theyr’e 10 min away) for delivery and it tool 1 hr 45 min to get our food. It was cold, the rice was hard and yellow (never saw fried rice yellow), orange chicken and sesame chicken were soggy and way too much sauce on them. Very rude when calling back to check on our order and I emailed them complaining and to my surprise… no reply! Don’t order here for delivery!

It’s cheap take-​out Chinese. I can’t complain about the service, the people are friendly, and the food is about what you would expect for the price you’re paying, so I can’t say it’s a bad value.

I ordered delivery from Hong Kong Restaurant while staying at a hotel in downtown St. Paul. When I made my order, they told me it would take 45 minutes to an hour. That seemed a little long, but it is Friday night. When it arrived, everything that I ordered was there. The only odd thing was that the sweet and sour chicken that I ordered was not together in one container. The chicken was in one container, and the sauce was in another. There wasn’t anything to put them together in, so I ended up dipping the chicken in the sauce, which wasn’t terribly hot. But neither was it cold. I also had vegetable fried rice and 2 egg rolls, both of which were good. I would try them again, but given another option I my try some other place first to see if they did better.

I’d really give this place 2.5 stars. It can be quite hit or miss ordering from them. Like the famous quote, when they’re good they’re good, when they’re bad they’re bad. This applies to their food and their drivers that make deliveries. Forewarned is forearmed!

This place used to be good a few years ago when it was a buffet and take out place. We ordered from here tonight and found the food frankly almost unedible. We enjoy Trader Ming's frozen chinese food from Trader Joe's Much better.
We felt that the food this place sells is of frozen variety and not freshly made. The dumplings are deep fried! no flavor — yuck!
The pork fried rice is yellow and that too has zero flavor. (non of us are smokers either) The only way we could eat it was with a soy sauce on it. The orange chicken was super spicy and had an onion flavor versus orange. Thus the broccoli also had an onion flavor and was just gross!
The white rice was the only tasty thing in the meal — What does that say.
Then to top it off, when I called to order the food, the women on the phone was very rude — almost such that I considered canceling my order. Now I wish I had!
Obviously, we were very disappointed and will never order from them again.
