Ho Sai Gai Restaurant

It was so nice! My friends and I came here for an end of the semester trip and the food was absolutely delicious! ❤️ the waitress which I think was the manager or owner was really nice and the food was absolutely delicious! Great prices too, I really enjoyed this restaurant.

The restaurant was clean and very easy to get seating. The service fast the food hot, fresh and good. They give enough portions to take home and eat another day. The owner and servers were very nice and welcoming. A great place to eat at in Chinatown Philadelphia.

We ate here late night around 1130, the gentleman waiter was very kind and welcoming made a few dad jokes. We really enjoyed the service. Everything came out hot and fresh. We got the wonton soup, shrimp spring roll and Kung Pao chicken with white rice. Everything was good. Will definitely return.

My recent visit to this restaurant in Chinatown yielded a mixed experience. The food offered a blend of hits and misses. We ordered fried dumplings, which while slightly overcooked and bulky, possessed a flavorful sauce that enhanced their taste. We also got rice noodles with shrimp and chicken which was passable in taste, accompanied by generous portions. Yet the starter soup was rather unpalatable. The Hunan chicken dish was satisfactory but left room for improvement. On the brighter side, the shrimp fried rice was enjoyable, offering a decent flavor profile. Regrettably, the service fell short of expectations. We were served water in unclean glasses, indicating a lapse in hygiene standards. Moreover, the incident where the aged waiter accidentally spilled water while clearing our tabl

Within the first minute of us sitting down, the waitress immediately came over and asked what food we wanted. She seemed surprised when we asked for a couple of minutes for us to decide what we wanted (it’s a very big menu) but left. In the next 5 minutes we had the staff ask us 3 more times if we were ready to order yet. It felt very rushed and quite stressful, but once we’d ordered the atmosphere was fine. I’d suggest knowing what you want before going there. At the end of the meal, we had a random extra 35$ charge on the check which we didn’t notice at the time since the check was written in Chinese and only realised after looking back the next day. Not sure what this charge was for but the food was fine.
