Hong Kong Express — Restaurant in Stanton

The food here is delicious, and the serving ladies are a treat all on their own; always smiling and happy. The quality matches the price, for the most part; my usual pick for my family, 3 trays of 2 item combos [that's 2 side items on top of your choice of any mix of noodles, white rice, and fried, rice], runs me roughly $40 & change, a bit more if I get a drink or any egg rolls.

My recommendations are the Garlic Beef and the House Special chicken.

There aren't many seats in the place, but it's cozy enough if you wanna eat in, and they don't constantly play annoying music over speakers, which is a big plus.

My only warning/complaint, aside from only being allowed one drink refill [their coke tastes better than some places, for some reason, which makes me wish I could get a second refill], would be to get the BBQ pork when it's fresh, if possible; as with the majority of chinese places, the BBQ pork tends to be a bit dry if it's been sitting out a while.

Other than that, and the fact I can't afford to go more often, I have no complaints.

Please do stop by on your way out from the Wal-Mart just a few doors down from them, if you can; nothing like saving the groceries for another night & just chowing down on some Chinese as comfort food...

Okay, so I was actually trying to go to Aloha Hawaiian barbecue next door but they were temporarily closed. I looked at the reviews and while there are clearly some fake five-star reviews on there (very American names with very American pictures, but with the kind of grammar you only get from a non-native speaker) there were enough others that I figured I'd give it a shot.

We will start with the good: 1.They are the friendliest people you will ever find in a restaurant. 2. The price paid per amount of food is quite good. A two item combo could fill up 2-3 hungry adults for $10.

The less good: The food is just okay. I ordered mushroom chicken and the house special chicken, and neither one were anything to write home about. They tasted pretty similar and there wasn't a lot of flavor in either. If you use the hot sauce, all you will taste is the hot sauce.

That said, the quality of the ingredients was reasonable for the kind of place it is, so the value proposition remains decent.

It would be a fantastic place to go if you had to feed a group of teenagers...

Always a 5 star experience every time I go & every time I order. I usually order my catering dishes here for our Church events & always call in advance. They get a 5 star because if you need a last minute dish to bring to an activity for a large number of people to feed, this place would provide what you need & take a same day catering call. I order 1 half tray for the beef & broccoli & 1 half tray orange chicken & half tray of chow mein. The greatest thing is their portion size and their orange chicken is soft & moist. It is not dry like other places. The ladies who work behind the counter are very pleasant. Please support these kinds of local businesses that are working hard to make a living instead of the franchise Panda Express. At Panda, they are super expensive & they give very little, for what...
