Hong Kong Chinese Food Pick Up

Friendly young ladies. Decent selection of typical menu options. Some favorite items are over priced. Orange sauce doesn’t come with Crab Rangoon, so, be sure to remember to order it. Very small ordering area. 1 small eat in table. Pretty much a take out place. Good selection of soda options. If you want the half chicken, order in advance… Said it’s at least a half hour wait. Great, popular location, across from brandywine park. Good alternative for the non drinking people who like trolley square, but want to avoid the bar scene around the corner

Some of the best boneless spare ribs I’ve ever had! And some great soups as well! Always quick and courteous. The only thing better would be if they started delivering!

It is your average Chinese take out. It has decent prices. The boneless ribs are a good deal.

I would rather walk here for take-​out than get delivery from the other Chinese places in the city. Never had a bad dish even if nothing has ever blown me away. Standard fair. Soups are delish. Aps are delish. Great deals on the combo menu. Friendly counter staff. Ample parking for pick ups.

I really really want to like this place because it is so close and I love chinese. The hot and sour soup is not bad and the vegetables are always fresh and cooked well. But all of the food is just flavorless. The chicken is the scary chicken texture where you aren’t sure what you are eating and the sauces are flavorless.

Not sure why this place doesn’t get higher scores. Best chinese in wilmington. Awesome fried rice

This Chinese takeout is hidden away on the back of the Trolley Square shopping center, so I never noticed it for quite a while even though my office is only a quarter of a mile from there. It’s probably mostly locals who know this place even exists. Anyway, I had a nearby errand to run this afternoon, so I decided to get takeout from Hong Kong. First thing I noticed is menu prices are somewhat lower than the Chinese takeouts near my place. Not even sure why because one would think it’s more expensive setting up shop near the city. I thought the food was about average for Chinese takeout but rather filling. I had a roast pork egg foo young combination. Service was pleasant and I think my order was the only one at the time, so it was ready within about five minutes or so. I’ll try to remember this place the next time I need a quick takeout near work.

Food was good. It’s a bit hard to find, it’s on the side behind the Delaware ave side, behind Walgreens.

My go to restaurant for take out. I have always found the food to be freshly prepared and typical of many American style Chinese establishments.

Ordered a bunch of food including spicy shrimp, spicy beef with fried rice, and chicken wings with rice. Except the wings, everything was sweet and full of onions. The food was fresh though. Anyways, I’m never going back there again, not that I’m visiting Wilmington… but if I do… gonna look for some other joint to satisfy my craving for Chinese food.

Fast and great. This is what you expect and hope for with take out chinese restaurants.

This place isn’t much to look at, but i really did enjoy the food. I ordered a spring roll and the Buddha Delight. At first, I thought the entrée was a bit bland, but that’s because I’m used to Chinese food being doused in salty sauce. The brown sauce was mild and it made the food taste seemingly healthy. There were a bunch of different vegetables — broccoli, onions, snap peas, green peppers, mushrooms, some cabbage, and carrots — and the tofu provided some necessary protein. Total cost $ 9.15 and it lasted for 3 or 4 meals. I would definitely come back and order this again!

Not bad at all. The food is cheap, fast, and generously portioned. Could the place be a little cleaner? Yes, but I feel comforted by the fact that it’s an open kitchen and you can see everything that’s going on. I don’t come here often, as I tend to dislike take-​out Chinese, but it satisfies that random craving… and is perfect for those busy nights when you don’t feel like cooking.

Immediately, Mr. V said great price for a great value. And I agree.
This place, hidden on the backside of the square, facing the weird park thing behind the never-​finished building, is a joy.
The menu is giant — though most Chinese places have giant menus.
They have heavy, they have light, they have spicy, they have medium, they have «coward» flavors.
They have small and large portions. They’re flavored well, spiced to my liking.
Mr. V orders lo mein, sweet and sour pork (or chicken), fried scallops, broccoli beef — a lot of times at the same time, sometimes with other things.
He has his specific feelings about when you order a vegetable dish with meat —
you tend to get a lot more vegetables than meat, though I would counter that this isn’t such a bad thing.
And then the difference between lo mein and chow mein —
chow mein doesn’t have the crispy noodles that one would normally think, but maybe that’s not done correctly even in the first place.
Nevertheless, the chow mein is vegetables with a separate package of fried noodles that I imagine are meant to put in it to soggify them.
But these strange sides come with the soups as well, which I don’t use.
I LOVE this place in the later autumn/​winter time, because I have found that their soups heal the dead. I swear, if I were a zombie and I ate their Hot & Sour soup, I would come back to life.
I really, really like their soups —
to me, they are the Asian version of chicken noodle soup or Matzo ball soup,
the make-​me-​feel-​better soups that they used before 1900 to heal the sick.
I like the value, I like the amount of food, and it doesn’t feel like the greasy Chinese food one would normally get at fast (er) food places, though of course, it’s not as good as a sit-​down restaurant.
I like that the girls behind the counter can remember our orders and the orders of the people behind us without writing it down, she just shouts to the guys at the woks, who remember it just as well.
Again, with the low turnover, so maybe it’s just memory of us customers.
I kinda wish they had some… other…types of food– like different parts of the animals–
but nevertheless, they do what they do have well.
Now I want some Hot and Sour soup.
Hmmm.

Really solid place to grab Chinese food.
As with most places of this ilk, the food is standard fair.
What makes this place worth visiting is that the staff is very hard working and friendly, and the food is consistent (no fear of disparity in the food quality from one visit to another).
It can get a bit busy during typical dinner hours, so it’s probably better to visit at an off hour or call ahead. Also, you need to order at least $ 7 to use a credit card.

They don’t deliver, but their food is pretty good. They actually have fried eggplant in garlic sauce, which is one of my favorites. They also do a decent fried Tofu on which they can put General Tso sauce, garlic sauce, seasame sauce.
The line there can get long at peak hours, so rather than order on site (and possibly wait a long time), it’s better to call your order in in advance so that it’s ready when you get there.

Good, fresh food cooked to order and fast! Very reasonable prices and good customer service. They were very accommodating to my allergies. I recommend it!

Same menu you’re used to, only the food isn’t greasy. It’s cooked to order, and fast. As previous posts have stated, their english isn’t the best, but that’s what I’d expect at an authentic Chinese American fast food spot. Hot and Sour Soup is on point.

Friendly service, the crab rangoon was my absolute favorite. We also had the beef lo mein, not a lot of beef and the sauce was a bit thin. I suppose most local Chinese take-​aways are all pretty much the same but I see no big problem with this place. If you’re looking to dine in, you can’t do it here, Hong Kong Chinese is strictly to pick up and go. But for quick, inexpensive and non-​serious Chinese food in the Trolley Square and/​or downtown Wilmington area, Hong Kong Chinese Food Pick-​Up is worth the stop.

I continue to order from here regularly because it is within walking distance from my house. And I suspect the reason they stay open, and maintain the (low-​ish) quality of food they have is because they have such a captive audience. But rest assured, there are better Chinese food pick-​up places out there, nearby, everywhere.
Your best bet is the common, oft-​ordered stuff. Wonton soup, egg drop soup, lo mein, general tso’s, beef/​chicken with broccoli, fried rice are all good (and by good I mean typical, average Chinese food. no surprises in either direction) here.
I tried the «Singapore Mei Fun (Rice Noodle)» and it was not rice noodle but instead regular old angel hair. I got the fried scallops and they weren’t even scallops at all, but rolled up, dried up, weird pieces of surimi meat (granted, I did wonder how the heck they got away with selling scallops for only $ 3.25, but I’ve ordered those at at least 5 other chinese restaurants in the past and I’ve always gotten actual scallops, albeit smallish ones). So that’s two dishes that are specifically advertised as being one thing and aren’t that thing at all. One of my favorite Chinese dishes is Moo Shu. I got it here once and it was literally ALL cabbage plus the meat. Wtf? Worst ever!
The only *good* I’ve noticed about this place is the «roast pork» appetizer, which I don’t see many other places’ menus. The small size for $ 4 is literally a pint of the pork slices/​chunks that they use in all their pork dishes, in a juice that’s «salty and bad for me» as I said the other night to my boyfriend. He pretty much orders this every time, and I just wanted to eat it all myself it’s so addictive.
So for the future, I’m going to stick with Hong Kong only when I’m craving my comfort foods of lo mein, wonton soup, and beef with snow peas. I’ll save the experimenting for when I’m willing to drive to pick up the food.
