Hong Kong House — Restaurant in Alton

I recently had the pleasure of revisiting Hong Kong House, a local Chinese restaurant that has been a favorite of mine since my high school days. The nostalgia hit me as soon as I walked through the doors, and I was instantly transported back to my childhood.

One dish in particular, the Redbird special, holds a special place in my heart. It was a staple during my younger years, and I was thrilled to see it still on the menu. The flavors were just as I remembered, and it brought back so many fond memories.

Under the new ownership, Hong Kong House has truly exceeded my expectations. The food has reached new heights of authenticity, and I was blown away by the quality of each dish. From the perfectly cooked noodles to the flavorful sauces, every bite was a delight.

What truly stood out to me was the friendliness of the staff. They greeted me with warm smiles and made me feel like a valued customer. Their attentiveness and willingness to accommodate any requests made my dining experience even more enjoyable.

To the team at Hong Kong House, keep up the fantastic work. You have gained a loyal customer in me, and I will continue to spread the word about the amazing dining experience you provide. Thank you for bringing back cherished memories and...

I chose refund. Now to see if I...

Got takeout recently since I heard they re-opened. You can order online so that's really convenient. The food was super tasty (love that deep color on the fried rice) and good portions. Downsides: very long wait. The online order said 1 hour until pickup, which is pretty long, but then we waited at the restaurant for an additional half an hour to get the food. When we got home, we were missing a few things so that was a bummer. Overall though good food. I will wait a few weeks and try again to see if the wait is better, after all they did just re-open. I'm happy...
